Chapter 248: A fixed plan
\'Haha, it\'s been a few days, so you\'ve missed me a little?\' Brother Jiang, the deputy district head, casually took hold of Secretary Liang\'s hand.
If you want to categorise women, there are probably many ways to do it. One is very simple, there are two types: the type you meet and want to go to great lengths to bring home as your wife, and the type you meet and also go to great lengths for, but to take to a hotel to have sex.
I don\'t know what Secretary Liang\'s true character is like, but just from her appearance, no, from her appearance alone, she is definitely the latter type.
Secretary Liang let Brother Jiang take advantage of her for a few seconds, then nonchalantly withdrew her hand and poured tea for Boss Lv. \'That\'s a bit harsh, Brother Jiang. These past few days you\'ve been saying that you\'re not available.\'
It was true that Vice-District Chief Jiang had been unavailable to meet with them these past few days. He had just directly brought a problem to the Mayor\'s attention, so he had to keep a low profile for a few days.
Sitting diagonally opposite Vice-District Chief Jiang, Boss Lv didn\'t know whether to ignore or pretend not to see the way he took advantage of his secretary in front of him.
Anyway, he didn\'t care. He took a sip of tea and said, \'Brother Jiang, it seems that this Jia is determined to compete with me, so none of what we agreed on is going to work. Brother, what should I do? Brother Jiang, you must teach me.\'
Lu Youfu was originally a fisherman along the coast. He was bold and cunning. In the early years, he fished, and then sold fish. In the middle, he seized the opportunity to sell treasury bonds and made a fortune. Then he made money by selling whatever was profitable. Although his reputation was not good, he made some money. Two years ago, some friends said that they could make money from small hydropower, so he followed them around a few provinces in the central and eastern regions and found that it was really good. So he invested in two of them.
But he never did anything like that again, because he discovered something that made even faster money.
He discovered that the more economically underdeveloped the officials in a place, the more daring they were. Really, they were even more daring than him. As long as you have money to offer, there is nothing they won\'t dare to do.
He got to know the officials of a county well, and at a very low price, he was able to buy a hydropower station built during the major water conservancy project in the 1970s. Then, not long after, he resold the old power station, which had great potential for renovation, to the locals. After this transaction, his wallet was a few hundred thousand yuan richer, after deducting all expenses.
Having tasted the sweetness, he became addicted and looked everywhere for these profitable projects. It so happened that those officials with ideas also needed a well-connected investor to cover them, so he has had it easy in recent years, making a fortune and seeing his personal wealth rapidly heading towards eight digits.
They had been working on the aluminium products factory for some time. To be honest, they originally had two plans: one was for the leadership, headed by the original factory manager, Fat Liu, to make the purchase; the other was for him to make the purchase in the name of an investor, with the two sides competing in a friendly takeover race with saving money as the priority.
Who knew that after a heavy rain, disaster struck all at once. When Workshop 3 collapsed, Fat Liu was also locked up, and a string of people were implicated in the incident. Only his alternative plan was left.
This would have been fine, but it immediately attracted the attention of the mayor, and then, Jia was drawn in.
\'Tell me the truth, you really can\'t raise the funds right now?\' Deputy Mayor Jiang\'s words were tinged with a chill.
\'Really, Brother Jiang, all my money is invested in a real estate project back home, and I really can\'t withdraw it.\'
Secretary Liang took the initiative to place her small hand on District Chief Jiang\'s hand, \'Yes, Brother Jiang, that project is still in the process of infrastructure construction, but once the pre-sale permit comes, some money can be collected. Right now, Lao Lv is really short of funds.\'
\'Then, in terms of capital, we can\'t compete with them. It seems that we can only think of other ways to help Youjia.\'
\'Why don\'t we say that Youjia\'s intention to acquire the company is because of the nearly 100 mu of land?\' Lu Youfu said.
\'Stupid, if you let this kind of thing get out now, how are we going to operate in the future?\' Their real intention is the nearly 100 mu of land, but now they\'ve brought this up, aren\'t they digging their own grave?
\'Then, how about saying that Youjia has no experience in production at all?\'
\'They don\'t, but they have their own needs in this area. You, on the other hand, have no experience and no needs, so aren\'t you even more unqualified?\'
Whenever Boss Lv said something, Vice-District Chief Jiang would retort.
\'Yes, but what do you think should be done?\'
\'Let me think,\' Deputy District Chief Jiang said, lightly patting Secretary Liang\'s small hand. "The biggest advantage of Youjia is that they have sufficient funds, and the production after the acquisition is also guaranteed. Our advantage, our advantage...," he pondered as he lifted up his teacup, which was already empty. Boss Lu hurriedly filled it up for him personally.
\'Our advantage is our connections. Youjia is new here, and they only have casual acquaintances with everyone. This is fundamentally not comparable to us. Therefore, we will play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses.\'
Vice-District Chief Jiang now refused to drink tea. \'In this way, we don\'t seek to acquire, and can joint venture with the aluminium products factory. Jia has no strong relationship with the Light Industry Bureau in Donghua, so I don\'t think they will do something like a joint venture.\'
He guessed correctly. As long as it was a joint venture, Feng Yiping would definitely not waste any time talking nonsense.
After hearing this, Boss Lu also had a long face. Of course, he didn\'t want to do a joint venture either. \'Old Lu, old Lu, what are you worried about? With me in the district, Lao Liu in the Light Industry Bureau, our people in the Finance Bureau, and our people in the city government, we can first use conditions like a joint venture to squeeze Youjia out. As for what to do in the future, with us here, it\'s not going to be difficult at all, is it?
The mayor can\'t keep an eye on this small factory forever. Besides, who knows how many years she can last? We are different. For example, I will retire in my current position as deputy district mayor. I\'m counting on the money from the future development of this land as my pension. I will be more concerned than you, so don\'t worry!\'
That night, Feng Yiping, who had stopped by the warehouse to grab a bite to eat, came home and saw a fax from his brother-in-law. The three locations represented three characteristics. One was in the city centre, one was next to Airport Boulevard, near the golf course that was about to be built, and the last one had a river in front of it and a lake behind it, with a unique view.
Feng Yiping marked the three places on a large map and thought about them for a while. His uncle was indeed luckier than him. These three places were not on the future light rail line, nor the high-speed railway line, and were also far away from the overpasses that were later expanded. In short, although each had its own selling points, they were all very good.
Regardless of the others, his personal favourite was still the last piece of land. The characteristics of the provincial capital are along the river and there are many lakes. This piece of land encompasses both of these characteristics. He is not sure about others, but in his own experience, when going on business trips to other cities, his first choice is a hotel with such rich local characteristics.
