Lu Fan said to his third uncle:

“If we contract out the development ourselves, we won’t need to attract investment, but we still need to start advertising.”

"If the marketing and promotion are done well, customers will come to us. Once we start selling in advance, the funds can be recovered as quickly as possible."

Mother Lu shook her head, feeling that these gimmicks were simply not enough:

"The land where our soy sauce factory is located is unfortunate; it's next to the suburbs, and there aren't any good primary schools or many facilities nearby."

"Aside from the factory's own employees and their families, there is not much competitiveness."

Uncle Lu also chimed in:

"So the blueprints shouldn't have been planned to include too many tall buildings in the first place, right? Otherwise, if so many buildings are built and they can't be sold, all the money spent on raw materials will be wasted."

Lu Fan even chose to build his own logistics, supermarkets, and shopping platforms, so what's so difficult about creating another sub-city center?

Besides, the land he selected wasn't just the soy sauce factory site:

"What do modern people value most when buying a house? The elderly value medical care, and couples value educational resources."

"If that's the case, why don't we just improve education and healthcare?" The money spent poaching doctors and senior teachers is less than the money spent building houses.

Besides, he currently owns two factories, an entire logistics and supermarket chain, with tens of thousands of employees working at full capacity.

Even if we built an internal hospital for our employees and established a comprehensive school from kindergarten to middle school, it wouldn't be a big deal.

At most, they can produce and sell their own products, and with better benefits, they can attract more technical talent.

It's a deal that will never lose money.

Lu Fan's plan was shrewd, and his mother was all smiles.

"Schools? Hospitals? Wow, you've really thought of everything, plus that plaza you bought."

"Now that we have places to shop and have fun, this suburb has become a small, self-contained community. It's even more convenient than the city center."

Uncle Lu also suddenly understood:

"That makes sense. With such good conditions, how could the buildings be difficult to sell? They'll probably be snapped up as soon as they go on sale."

"Moreover, in this way, we don't have to wait until all the houses are built before we have the funds to buy land and develop new residential buildings."

"You have to admit Xiao Fan is smart. He sold off all the risky cash flow, and now we can just sit back and collect the interest!"

Lu's mother choked: "Look at what you're saying, it's as if my son is trying to get something for nothing!"

Lu Fan burst into laughter:

"I think my uncle is right, let's try to get something for nothing!"

Lu Fan came to talk to his third uncle today not only to encourage him to work at Fanyue Real Estate Company as a manager and do development work.

He had other things he wanted Uncle Lu to do:

"Uncle, you're personally taking charge, which shows how desperately we need manpower."

"Except for my fifth cousin who is still in school, I would have asked her to come and do an internship."

"Look, how about we get my third cousin out of his house? He can come and work for you too."

With brothers fighting tigers together and fathers and sons going into battle side by side, everyone worked together, and Lu Fan could finally put his mind at ease about the affairs of Fanyue Real Estate Company.

Uncle Lu was initially hesitant.

He wasn't in the engineering field in his early years; it was his older brother, Lu Fan's maternal uncle, who was.

However, Uncle Lu was really old, and he had long since handed the reins over to Uncle Lu.

This time, since we came to Nanshan City with everyone, Uncle Lu was happy to go and guard the factory gate.

When he has nothing to do, he strolls around the factory to exercise. When he's at work, he either wanders around or hides in the gatehouse to watch the surveillance cameras.

They seem to be enjoying their work quite much.

Lu Sanjiu used to work in printing, so Lu Fan initially thought of handing over the printing factory's business to him.

But Uncle Lu felt that the printing factory's business wasn't doing well, and he didn't have the ability to revive it, so he simply went back to doing engineering projects.

Now that Lu Fan has asked him to manage Fanyue Real Estate Company, Lu Sanjiu is actually relieved.

However, when he heard that Lu Fan planned to call his eldest son, Zhang Tianguang, who was Lu Fan's third cousin, to Nanshan City.

Uncle Lu hesitated:

"If you ask me, if I had to choose someone to work with, I'd rather choose your second uncle."

Uncle Lu also runs a small business, and his aluminum alloy door and window business relies on the help of his neighbors.

Lu Fan thought to himself that this was no big deal, and quickly made arrangements for his third uncle:

“There’s always a lot going on at a construction site. Even if you don’t know how to build a house, you still need someone from your own family to keep an eye on the site and keep the workers in line.”

“When construction is underway, we have to be careful that people don’t slack off. Third Uncle, you and Second Uncle are not young anymore, you can’t stay on the construction site day and night.”

"My third cousin would be perfect for this. Doesn't his job often involve working overtime day and night?"

“He’s doing this for our own family, I can’t let him suffer.” Uncle Lu pondered Lu Fan’s words, and they made perfect sense no matter how he thought about it. Let’s not even talk about all the workers on the construction site.

They say that steel bars, cement, concrete, and various machinery all cost a lot of money.
