Hong Dali had always been playful and didn't care about money. As his number one lackey, Ling Xiaoyi naturally couldn't go against his wishes.
She could report, and Hong Tu could also study how to earn money from the surrounding areas, but she definitely couldn't make any decisions on her own.
"Hehe, I understand." Hong Tu was, after all, a shrewd old man. Very quickly, he understood. "What you mean is, it's fine for us to do some research, or to do some small business in the corners that he doesn't care about, but we can't touch the main parts, right? For example, this theme park. Before Hong Dali agrees, these shops can't be opened, right? "
"Yes." Hong Tu was so considerate that Ling Xiaoyi felt a little embarrassed. "That's what I meant. Please forgive me, Old Elder."
"Haha, it's nothing." Hong Tu smiled and said, "We were only doing a simple analysis of where Dali could possibly earn money from. As for actual actions … Let me put it this way, it's not that I'm being arrogant, but I really don't care about an amusement park that's worth tens of millions. It's not a problem for him to tinker with it however he wants. If you need my help, just let me know. "
"Thank you, Old Elder." Ling Xiaoyi gratefully said.
"En, OK, let's continue. Xiaoyi, did Hong Dali say anything else? He's moving the theme park here. "Hong Tu curiously asked," What about Big Turtle, the Black Tortoise? There are quite a number of amusement parks in Tianjing City, and they're all not small. Without the Black Tortoise, the popularity of his park won't reach its peak. "
"Young Master said …" Ling Xiaoyi briefly said, "Young Master originally planned to use roller coasters to transport tourists from the outer area of Tianjing Mountain to Fengyuan Lake and back …"
"What?!" Hong Tu was completely shocked again. "This little prodigal plans to use roller coasters to transport tourists? My goodness, how long would the track be?! "
Mu Yuxi's face was full of shock as well.
She knew that Hong Dali was a prodigal and was a superprodigal, but she never thought that Hong Dali would dare to spend so much!
Roller coasters to transport tourists from the outer area of Tianjing Mountain to Fengyuan Lake? How big of an investment would that be! And he still dared to say that Tianjing Mountain amusement park was free?!
"Uh …" Ling Xiaoyi's forehead was full of cold sweat. "This Young Master is not generous enough …"
"If he's any more generous, he would have to invest hundreds of millions …" Hong Tu felt that the more he heard about Hong Dali, the more shocked he was. At this moment, he saw Tang Muxin, who had been sitting at the side and smiling as she watched the meeting. He smiled and asked, "Little girl from the Tang family, why aren't you saying anything? You're just sitting there and smiling foolishly? Do you have any thoughts on Dali's matter? "
Although Hong Tu was old, his memory wasn't bad. Naturally, he wouldn't forget Tang Muxin's identity.
"Great Grandfather." Tang Muxin smiled and walked over. The little lass mimicked Hong Dali and sniffled. She said, "Actually, I'm not worried at all. Hong Dali will definitely have good luck — the key is, I don't understand why he is spending so much money!"
"This …" Hong Tu and Mu Yuxi were completely despondent. Looks like at the moment, even with their intelligence, they still couldn't understand why Hong Dali was doing all this. Could he really be a prodigal? It didn't seem like it. If he really just wanted to squander, then he would have lived all these years in vain!
However, Hong Tu's mind suddenly flashed, and he thought of a very important person.
His fifth son, Hong Weiguo!
As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than a father. He and Hong Dali were a generation apart, yet he still couldn't understand. What about Hong Weiguo? It was impossible that he didn't have any thoughts, right?
Thinking up to this point, Hong Tu hurriedly arranged for his assistant. "Quick, call Weiguo over."
"Yes, Old Elder."
After about five minutes, Hong Weiguo arrived. He smiled and said, "Dad, what's the matter?"
"Sit, get him a computer." Hong Tu pointed at the seat beside him. After Hong Weiguo went on the video call, Hong Tu then said, "Xiaoyi, tell Weiguo about the zoo that Hong Dali is planning and see what he thinks about it."
Then, Xiaoyi told him about Hong Dali wanting to build a zoo. Hong Weiguo listened for a while, frowned, touched his chin, and muttered, "This kid wants to build an amusement park? En, it's at the outer area of Tianjing Mountain, right? "
"That's right." Hong Tu nodded. "Weiguo, what do you think?"
Hong Weiguo helplessly shrugged his shoulders. "I can't tell what exactly is going on. This kid has always been an exaggerated prodigal. And he never plays by the rules. What we think and what he thinks are completely different. Even if we rack our brains, we definitely won't be able to figure it out. "
At the end, he didn't forget to add, "My secretary, Xiao Liu, has already completely thrown away logic. Otherwise, he might die young."
"This …" Hong Tu stared in bewilderment. "Then, we're just going to wait here?"
"That won't be necessary." Hong Weiguo understood his position. "I only know one thing. We don't have to worry about anything that Hong Dali is planning. We just have to try our best to help him settle all the matters at the corners. That will definitely not go wrong."
"What you mean is …" Hong Tu asked.
"What I mean is very simple." Hong Weiguo fiercely slapped the map and smiled. "Doesn't Hong Dali like the outer area of Tianjing Mountain? Let's expand the map. Encircle the mountain inside and the large piece of land by the road outside. Then, we just have to throw it there. "
"So simple?!" Hong Tu was really shocked.
Mu Yuxi was also tongue-tied as she listened.
That works too? Hong Dali squandered while he cooperated?! I must have woken up the wrong way today. This is the first time I've heard of this!
"So simple." Hong Weiguo laughed. "Dad, do you know how I bought that 1.2 billion worth of land? Back then, it was because Hong Dali seemed to like real estate, and he seemed to be in a good mood at that time. His body actually slowly recovered. Then, in order to follow his wishes, I bought some land in case he might need it in the future. You know the result too … "
"You're saying that you bought those land because Hong Dali liked it?!" Hong Tu finally understood why Hong Weiguo bought those land …
It turned out to be to make Hong Dali happy!
"Yes." Hong Weiguo nodded. "Now, it seems that our little prodigal intends to expand his territory. So … Dad, don't you intend to spend some money?"
"Let me think …" Hong Tu touched his beard and carefully looked at the map. The more he looked, the more he felt that it made sense. "En, there's nothing else here except for a highway. It's all barren land. It's definitely cheap to buy it now. But Weiguo, can you really guarantee that you won't lose out?"
"I can't guarantee that." Hong Weiguo shrugged. "It's business. It's normal to make some and lose some. What I mean is, it's not expensive here. It won't be a big loss even if we take it and throw it away. What if our Dali can turn something rotten into something magical? "
"Alright." Hong Tu thought for a while and suddenly laughed. "Look at this old bag of bones of mine. The more I live, the more timid I become. En, that's settled. I'll ask someone to discuss this piece of land tomorrow. After buying it … "
Hong Weiguo directly decided. "Buy it and put it under Dali's name! Anyway, it's barren land. He can do whatever he wants. We can just do what we need to do. "
"En, Weiguo, how much land area do you think we should buy?" Hong Tu asked.
"Land area? Let me take a look … "Hong Weiguo carefully looked at the map again." The entire area, from the outer area of Tianjing Mountain to West Fourth Loop's Fengyuan Lake. Dad, how much money do you think I need to buy this land? "
"Such a big area?!" Hong Tu stared in bewilderment. "It's almost the size of a county! You want me to buy such a big piece of barren land?! Even if it's barren land, such a big piece would cost at least two billion! I thought it would be on the roadside when I heard you say it previously! "
That was really a big sum. Mu Yuxi was completely speechless as she listened at the side.
Just for a park that Hong Dali built, they were going to spend two billion in one go …
"Aiya, Dad, look, it's not that our Hong Family can't afford it, right? Moreover, it's all immovable property, we can't lose it. " As expected of the father and son, Hong Weiguo smiled as sinisterly as Hong Dali. "With the country's policy to develop the West Fourth Loop, we definitely won't lose money. The only difference now is how much we can earn from this piece of land. If it's less, it might be one or two hundred million. If it's more, it might be one or two billion. Anyway, we won't lose money, what are you afraid of? You can earn money and make your eldest grandson happy at the same time. How good is that? "
"En, it's true that we can't lose money." Hong Tu touched his beard and finally nodded. His son had always been a man of his words. It seemed that he had to agree today, but …
"Sigh, you little rascal." Hong Tu laughed and scolded. "You even schemed against me for Dali. That's great. I punished his lackeys at the family meeting and locked them up for a day. Now, you've asked for a piece of land worth two billion for him. "
Speaking up to this point, Hong Tu wanted to cry. I won't care about Hong Dali anymore. Otherwise, all my assets will be taken away!
Upon hearing Hong Tu's words, Tang Muxin and Ling Xiaoyi giggled. Mu Yuxi's cold face also revealed a smile.
This Old Elder Hong Tu was actually quite cute when he cracked a joke.
"Ahaha, haha." Hong Weiguo laughed dryly, then decisively left. "Dad, I won't say anything else. When Dali is free, I'll ask him to visit you. I'll go back first, I'll go back first! Once you've bought the land, just put it under Dali's name. Let him do whatever he wants with it. You don't have to worry about that. "
"Quickly get lost, little rascal." Hong Tu was so angry that his beard trembled. "This little prodigal didn't ask for a single cent of the family's Rookie King of the Year's treatment and funds. I was still happy that I saved money. Now, two billion will be gone …"
However, even though he said that, Hong Tu still agreed with Hong Weiguo's suggestion.
Since Hong Weiguo asked him to buy the land, he was naturally sure that it wouldn't be a loss. Actually, thinking about it, as long as it was near the West Fourth Loop, the value would not drop!
