In the private room, a few people talked about it in confusion.
Li Dong was a little impatient in his heart, but he endured it and did not flare up. He could ignore Zhang Qing alone, but if the people in the private room joined forces, Li Dong would not be able to handle it.
Although he didn't know the identity of Zhang Lanyu, Chen Rui, and the others, they were definitely not simple. At least, they were a level higher than Zhang Qing.
After a long time, Li Dong finally went straight to the point, "Miss Zhang, Young Master Chen, if you have something to say, just say it. It's getting late, and I'm used to sleeping early."
Chen Rui smiled and said, "Okay, I like General Manager Li's straightforward character!"
"But before I say it, I want to ask General Manager Li a question."
"Please ask!"
"What does General Manager Li think of the real estate industry?"
Li Dong glanced at him and said with certainty without much hesitation, "In the profiteering industry, if you enter now, you will definitely make a profit."
Chen Rui and the others' eyes lit up, and Zhang Lanyu quickly said, "Why is General Manager Li so sure? In the 1990s, real estate was also popular, but later there was a real estate bubble. Is Li Dong so sure that he will make a profit? "
Li Dong smiled and didn't explain. He just said, "I can't tell the reason, but I think this time is different from the past. We will definitely make a profit."
Li Dong's statement made Zhang Lanyu and the others a little disappointed, but they quickly recovered. At least they knew Li Dong's opinion.
Chen Rui glanced at Zhang Lanyu, and seeing her nod, he said, "Since General Manager Li is so optimistic about the real estate industry, haven't you thought of getting a share?"
Li Dong finally understood their purpose. He smiled and said, "Do whatever you can. The water of real estate is too deep. I'm afraid of drowning in it."
These were Li Dong's thoughts. If it was so easy to enter the real estate industry, he would not have focused on supermarkets.
There were too many things involved in the real estate business. Li Dong had nothing at the moment. If he went in rashly, he would be courting death.
Don't look at how he had a small fortune now. In fact, if he threw such a small amount of money into it, it wouldn't even make a ripple.
Seeing this, Chen Rui's eyes flashed and he said, "What if we join forces?"
As soon as he said that, not only Chen Rui, but also Zhang Lanyu, Wang Siwen, and even Zhang Qing looked at Li Dong.
Li Dong asked without batting an eyelid, "How so?"
"We'll take care of the land, documents, qualifications, and connections. You'll take care of the rest."
Li Dong smirked and said, "To sum it up, I'll pay, and you guys do the work?"
"Yes!"
Li Dong smiled and shrugged. "Young Master Chen, you think too highly of me. At most, I'm considered to have a small fortune. You guys can get more money than me by using your connections. Actually, there's no need to look for me. "
Chen Rui shook his head and said, "That's different. To be honest, it's not that we can't do that, but there's still hope for our old man to improve. I love money, but I also know that some money can't be touched."
These words made Li Dong think more highly of him. These guys looked silly, but they were actually very smart.
The country's money naturally couldn't be touched. Who could guarantee that they would be able to make money?
It was fine if they made money, they could just return it. But what if they made a loss?
It would be fine if they didn't expose it. Once their opponents got hold of it, it would be hard for them to keep their current position, let alone improve.
However, it would be different if they worked with Li Dong. They provided their connections and connections, and the one who provided the money was Li Dong.
If they made a profit, everyone would share it, and if they made a loss, it would all be Li Dong's. They would not lose anything.
Although it wasn't as much as taking everything for themselves, it was ten times or even a hundred times safer. Smart people would naturally choose to work together for a win-win situation.
Li Dong pondered for a moment and asked, "Why me?"
This time, it was Zhang Lanyu who replied. Zhang Lanyu's eyes lit up. "To be honest, we didn't think of looking for General Manager Li at first. The previous incidents were all caused by Qingzi's own initiative. But after the Baidu incident, we realized that General Manager Li was the most suitable candidate. "
Why was he the most suitable? Because Li Dong only had money but no connections.
If you wanted to do real estate, you couldn't just have money and connections.
The few of them were considered relatively young among the second generation. They had been keeping a low profile in the past few years and didn't have any capital.
Li Dong was the same. He was too young and didn't have the time to build a complex network.
Working with Li Dong, not only would they have the capital to support them, but they also wouldn't be afraid that he would betray them. He was simply the best candidate to work with.
Li Dong's eyes sparkled. "What about the profits?"
"Forty to sixty!"
"Sixty for me, and forty for you?" Li Dong's lips curled up.
Chen Rui laughed. "General Manager Li has a big appetite."
Wang Siwen, who had been quiet all this while, also said, "General Manager Li, you are not the only choice. Our relationship is the only one."
"Hehe, let me think about it."
Li Dong laughed and didn't continue.
In fact, he was a little tempted at first, but then Li Dong came back to his senses.
This money wasn't easy to earn. Rather than asking a tiger for its skin, it was better to be self-reliant.
Although real estate was profitable, it might not be as profitable as the supermarket. In addition, he still had to split the profits with these few fellows. In the end, he might not even earn as much as the supermarket.
Since that was the case, why would he waste so much effort to get into this vortex?
Earning money was only a small part of the reason. The real reason was that Li Dong wasn't optimistic about working with these second-generation officials.
Their fathers might not be able to stay in this position for long. Once their fathers were transferred, they would be the ones at a disadvantage.
When their fathers left, these few fellows would follow them. Could they let Li Dong clean up the mess they left behind?
Hearing what Li Dong said, Zhang Lanyu and the others frowned again. They could tell that Li Dong was being perfunctory. Was this guy not tempted at all?
Chen Rui wanted to say more, but Li Dong interrupted, "We'll talk about the real estate cooperation later. But now, we can work together once."
Zhang Lanyu said calmly, "What did General Manager Li say?"
"I want the land in Hua Manor!"
This time, without waiting for the others to speak, Zhang Qing shouted, "Wishful thinking!"
Zhang Lanyu and Chen Rui didn't stop him. They also showed a hint of displeasure on their faces. Was Li Dong trying to steal their land?
Li Dong smiled and said, "Young Master Zhang, don't be anxious. Let me finish first."
"I want the land in Hua Manor, but I'm not asking for it for free. Young Master Chen, you guys can do whatever you need to do. What I want to do is to be the buyer. "
Although Li Dong said it in a rather wicked way, the few of them understood what he meant.
In other words, Chen Rui and the others bought the land at a low price and then sold it to Li Dong at a high price.
This was also the method that many second-generation officials used to get rich. As long as they had a strong background, there was almost no risk in doing this.
Chen Rui and the others looked at each other. Zhang Lanyu said hesitantly, "But we want to keep it and develop it ourselves?"
"Do you have the money to develop it?" Li Dong chuckled and said, "Instead of letting it rot in your hands, it's better to sell it and earn a sum of money. When you earn this sum of money, you will have the capital. Do you still need to look for me to cooperate with you? "
"Moreover, I heard that this land is about to be auctioned. You don't have much money on you now. Even if you take a loan, it'll be too late."
"And I can lend you a sum of money to buy this land. I'll buy it later. Just move your lips and don't spend a single cent. You can get tens of millions of yuan."
After Li Dong finished speaking, Chen Rui and the others' breathing became heavier.
They felt that what Li Dong said made sense. They borrowed Li Dong's money to buy the land and then sold it to Li Dong. Not only would they not have to return the money they borrowed, but they would also receive another sum of money.
All they had to do was move their lips and run errands. In the end, they would get a lot of money.
And if they left the land for themselves to develop, they would not be able to get the funds. Even if they got it, it would take a long time to develop a project. How could they be at ease with cash?
Moreover, when they had the money, they did not have to stare at the Hua Family's land. Pingchuan was so big, and Jiangbei was so big. Were there no opportunities for them to get rich?
At this moment, even Zhang Qing was tempted.
He hated Li Dong, but it did not mean that he was willing to go against money. If it was really as Li Dong said, and they could sell it for tens of millions of yuan, then he could at least get a few million yuan.
When he thought of a few million yuan, Zhang Qing felt a little tempted.
It would not take more than two months to buy the land. A few million yuan in two months, this business was definitely worth it!
Chen Rui and Wang Siwen exchanged a few words in low voices. Then, they exchanged opinions with Zhang Lanyu.
Finally, Chen Rui said, "General Manager Li, let's go back and discuss this. We will give you a reply in a few days."
Li Dong did not expect them to agree immediately. He smiled and said, "Alright, I will wait for your good news."
Li Dong said, "It's getting late. I will not disturb you anymore."
"General Manager Li is too polite. Sorry for the delay this time. Next time, let's go to a better place and have a good drink." Chen Rui smiled.
Zhang Lanyu also smiled and said, "General Manager Li, I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate."
Li Dong nodded slightly and chatted with them for a while. Then, he turned around and left the private room.
When Li Dong left, the private room suddenly became quiet.
After a while, Chen Rui took a deep breath and said, "He is someone."
Zhang Lanyu was also secretly shocked. Only then did she feel that something was wrong.
Originally, they were planning to take down Li Dong's prestige during this meal before discussing the matter of cooperation.
But who knew that not only did they not destroy his prestige, but the cooperation to develop the real estate also fell through. In the end, they were the ones who needed help from Li Dong.
Although they did not necessarily have to borrow money from Li Dong to buy the land, nor did they have to sell it to Li Dong, Li Dong did control the whole situation in the end.
Everyone followed his train of thought, and even Zhang Qing forgot about his hatred.
All this happened unknowingly. It showed that Li Dong was not a good guy.
Wang Siwen also exhaled and said, "This guy is naturally someone. If he didn't have some real ability, how could he create such a big family business alone? Don't talk about luck. Luck is illusory. If we want to talk about luck, we are lucky to be born in such a family, but I don't think we are doing better than him. "
When these words were said, they all fell into deep thought.
Li Dong was a nouveau riche, but there was also a difference between nouveau riche. Li Dong's biggest advantage was his age. Youth meant unlimited possibilities.
