Hu Zhuoke smiled and punched Zhuang Zhiwu.

"Haha, Zhiwu, it's been so long, your skills in insulting people have become even more refined."

Commander Huo was so angry with you that he vomited blood and fainted.

Just as Zhuang Zhiwu was about to agree, he suddenly noticed Huo Xianlin abruptly stand up.

He grabbed Hu Zhuoke and pulled him backward, while simultaneously kicking the gun far away.

Zhuang Zhiwu personally handcuffed Huo Xianlin.

"Tsk tsk, old man Huo, you're quite the actor."

Blood packs taste pretty good, don't they? You must really like them!

Don't worry, I'll let you eat your fill.

Zhuang Zhiwu pinched Huo Xianlin's mouth and stuffed a blood pack into it. Huo Xianlin's mouth was full of blood, and he vomited it out.

"You...you...let go...let go of me now."

"Don't you like eating blood buns? Is it wrong for me to satisfy your request? You're really ungrateful."

Zhuang Zhiwu looked at Hu Zhuoke.

"Alright, Zhuo Ke, you can take him away. He'll confess soon."

If he still doesn't behave, give him some artificial blood packets; he loves them.

"Haha, Zhiwu, you're really something! I'll take the person back first, and we'll have dinner together another day."

"Hehe, no problem."

Zhuang Zhiwu was on guard at all times, and Huo Xianlin turned his head, intending to spit blood all over Zhuang Zhiwu's face.

Zhuang Zhiwu took out the frying pan he had stuck behind his back and used it to block the way.

"Haha, my brother-in-law made a great pot!"

Old man Huo, are you very angry? Well, we've already thought of that.

Hey, I have to hurry home, my little sister made a seafood feast.

We should really celebrate the elimination of these parasites; it's truly gratifying!

Huo Xianlin was truly spitting blood this time.

But his mouth was full of blood, and no one knew whether he was really vomiting or not. Hu Zhuoke didn't care and just took him away.

At the same time, a group of people sealed off Huo Xianlin's home.

This huge cancer has finally been removed.

A few days later, Zhuang Zhiwu returned and told his younger sister the good news.

"Little sister, you've turned misfortune into blessing, because your second sister-in-law's father is now the supreme commander."

"That's good, Second Brother, you now have a father-in-law who can help you."

"Yes, I'm not fighting alone anymore."

"Oh, by the way, little sister, I have something else to tell you when I got back."

"Second brother, what's the matter?"

"The material of the frying pan is really good; we'd like to buy some."

"Hehe, Second Brother, you're quite perceptive. You've only used it once and you're already thinking about it?"

Haha, you bet.

I've been thinking about this for the past few days, and I suddenly realized that it's a very good defensive material.

"Alright, same as always, Second Brother, come to our park to talk."

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."

"Second brother, have the higher-ups noticed our park yet?"

"No, don't worry, you can continue operating normally."

"That's good. Too much attention on us might not be a good thing."

Actually, the higher-ups weren't unaware of this; Zhu Hongzhao specifically called Zhuang Bingqian.

Zhuang Bingqian reassured the senior leader, which prevented them from sending anyone to conduct an in-depth investigation of the industrial park.

Days passed by like this, until May 1988.

Zhuang Zhimeng received a message from her godfather that there was a plot of land available for bidding.

Although my godfather has long since retired, he is still quite well-informed about various matters.

"Grandpa, I understand. How much does it cost approximately?"

"This land is probably not cheap. It's located within the newly planned second ring road in the city. You should be prepared."

"Okay, we'll go up the budget."

"Well, don't set it too high. Consider the general situation of the jade shop. Setting it too high isn't worth it."

"OK."

Zhuang Zhimeng looked at her lover.

"Honey, what do you think about opening a jade shop within the Second Ring Road?"

"Prices within the Second Ring Road will definitely be much higher overall, and competition will likely be fierce."

Actually, I prefer to open a shop near the park, so that Mengmeng and I can manage both.

Initially, we go to the store; once things are stable, we can go back and forth between the two locations.

The area within the Second Ring Road is too far from our industrial park.

"That's true, but there aren't any plots of land available for bidding near the park."

"Honey, I've heard some news."

"The factory next to Pierre Department Store is up for sale. Should we buy it?"

Is the information accurate?

"I asked Xiao Yi to analyze it, and Xiao Yi said it was quite accurate."

The factory is operating at a loss and has been losing money for quite some time.

"My husband wants to demolish the factory, but actually he wants to buy the land?"

"Yes, what do you think, honey?"

"Demolition is easy to discuss, but the key question is what to do with the factory's equipment?"

We're also unsure whether we can buy the land parcels.

I'll call my godfather again and ask him.

Zhuang Zhimeng hung up the phone and shook her head.

“If we take over the factory, we can’t just dispose of the equipment. There are production lines inside, and the factory is state-owned.”

We have to take over all the workers too.

"Sigh, we can accept the workers, but polishing the jade requires a lot of people."

"We have no use for this equipment."

"Heh, all of them? That factory has 10,000 people. Can we handle them all?"

"Ten thousand people? Forget it then. I'm thinking of just taking one or two thousand."

"How about we bid for land within the Second Ring Road? And have Number 001 send a clone to be the store manager."

This way, my husband and son can move freely between the two sides.

"Haha, great idea! Let No. 001 be in charge of the jade shop, and Mengmeng and I will go over to check on it occasionally."

When the couple told No. 001, No. 001 immediately agreed.

It doesn't object as long as it makes money; it's always thinking about its girlfriend.
