Second Brother Li was neither the heavens nor the earth. Wang Yuan would still be able to make a name for himself here if he left Second Brother Li alone. However, if he wanted to make a name for himself in the long run, he couldn't avoid Second Brother Li, nor could he avoid the business circle headed by Second Brother Li.
Even in China, from real estate to logistics, home appliances, retail, and F&B, Li He was undoubtedly the king. He was an insurmountable mountain. If a multinational corporation wanted to enter the Chinese market, they would first visit the China Reclamation Group.
Li He said calmly, "You want to develop real estate here?"
Wang Yuan followed Pan Song and the rest around the Soviet Union. Then, he left the group and started his own business. After that, he became a big boss of a foreign trade company. After accumulating funds, he entered the mining and real estate industries. The real estate industry was getting more and more prominent. He had already established himself in fourth- and fifth-tier cities. Now, he had the ambition to enter the real estate industry in Beijing.
Ding Shiping, Lan Shifang, Li Aijun, and the rest were angry with him. No matter how big he became, they didn't treat him well. They felt that he was being disloyal.
Li Aijun was willing to come today because of Li He.
However, Li He didn't take it to heart. Everyone had their own ambitions. Who would be willing to work for someone else for a lifetime?
Moreover, Wang Yuan had helped with Dong Bujin's matter. Li He naturally had to return the favor. He might as well help him.
Wang Yuan smiled. "Boss Li, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I've been relying on you for the past ten years. I have some achievements and I'm considered wealthy. It's just that I'm new here and I'm like a blind man touching an elephant. I hope you can give me some pointers."
"You have funds?" Li He raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Just do your best."
"Thank you, Boss Li He." Wang Yuan stood up again and drank the wine in his glass. This time, Li He made way for him.
Xu Guohua continued, "Yeah, Boss Wang, as long as you have money, you don't have to worry about land. In order to improve the air quality and economic structure, the government recently planned to move more than 130 industrial enterprises out of the Fourth Ring Road. At least 6 million square meters of land can be replaced, so there's no need to worry about land. "
Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Director Xu, I've sent people to the site of the land auction. I heard that only three out of the nine pieces of land were sold, and the total area is only 50,000 square meters."
Pinsong said, "Mr. Wang, we'll be friends in the future, so you don't have to hide things from me. Don't use the word 'rumor'. In fact, it's the truth. There were only eight real estate companies that participated in the auction, and three pieces of land were sold. The average price of each piece of land was only a little more than a hundred million.
I guess you didn't hear the follow-up, did you? "
"I'm all ears." Wang Yuan wasn't annoyed.
Xu Guohua smiled and said, "In fact, out of the three pieces of land that were sold, Mr. Ping's company had already gotten one piece. The remaining six pieces of land that were not sold were also bought by me, Mr. Ping, and Mr. Zhang."
"Ah," Wang Yuan was very surprised. He gritted his teeth and could not help but ask, "Putting aside the resettlement houses and affordable housing, the annual residential area in Beijing has been above 10 million square meters for the past few years. This year, it's even more incredible. There are more than 80 new buildings that are close to 20 million square meters. How are we going to absorb this market?
What I mean is that we can get some good pieces of land, so we don't have to worry about selling them. We can't just pick up a basket of vegetables. "
Pinsong laughed and said, "Mr. Wang, this won't do. Real estate companies must be able to imagine and look ahead. Do you know where these pieces of land are located?
Originally, they were either lumber mills or crane factories, but they're all well-developed land that has already been paved. Have you calculated how much effort and money we can save?
Moreover, the city's population is in a state of net inflow and growth. There are currently more than three million registered non-locals in the city. Among the 18 districts and counties, Chaoyang, Haidian, and Fengtai have the most migrant workers and businessmen.
Based on the current trend, there will be seven to eight million non-locals in the future. Foreigners are still people. Do you want to buy a house in the future? "
"I've learned a lot." Wang Yuan cupped his hands and drank a glass with Pinsong. He then said, "Everyone, please take care of me in the future."
Su Ming smiled and said, "We're all making a living from Brother Li. Don't talk about taking care of me. Using my brother's words, we should all improve together in the future."
There was a period in the past when they addressed Li He as Mr. Li or Mr. Li. However, as time passed, they realized that only by addressing Second Brother Li as "Brother" would they be able to show that they were different in this circle. Hence, they started to address Li He as "Brother" again.
The change in the way they addressed him also slowly reflected the change in their mentality.
"Then let's all have a toast to improving together."
Everyone raised their glasses together.
When he got home, it was already past three o 'clock.
The first thing he did was to go to the toilet. After he was done, he laid on the sofa and fell asleep in a daze.
When he woke up, he realized that there was something wrong with his scalp. He touched his hair with his hand, then put his finger to his nose and sniffed. "Shoe polish?"
How did it end up on his head?
Looking at his smiling daughter and her black hands, he knew who had done it.
"You have nothing better to do, right?"
He wanted to hit her, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Dad, you have white hair." Li Yi pointed at Li He's hair and said proudly, "I dyed it black for you."
Li He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He did not know whether to say that his daughter was stupid or to praise her for being filial.
His white hair was already there ten years ago.
Later on, he could not keep his hair at all. Even if he had a little hair in the winter, he would need to dye it. Every time he went to dye his hair, people would nag him that he had white hair at such a young age.
"Thank you, I'm so grateful to you." Li He patted his daughter's head and took off his shirt. He went to the bathroom and took a shower. When he came out, he found that his daughter was crying non-stop. She stood at the door and kept twisting her fingers.
"Do you know what you're doing?" He Fang reprimanded him, holding a tree branch in her hand.
"What are you doing?" Li He snatched the tree branch from his wife's hand and coaxed his daughter. "Don't cry. You won't be pretty if you cry."
Li Yi cried even louder.
"Don't let him do whatever he wants. Who did you learn this from?" He Fang asked again. "Shoe polish hurts your scalp. Have you washed it clean? Don't lose your hair again. "
"I scrubbed it several times," Li He said indifferently. "It's better if I become bald. I can save money on a haircut."
"Nonsense." He Fang hit his chest and couldn't help but cry. "I'll wash it for you again."
