Zhang Hongcheng did mail an official letter to Minister Li.
He didn't say it was his own idea, but just vaguely said that a brother unit in Shanghai wanted to ask the Corps for help - to change the location.
Minister Li immediately called him after receiving the letter to inquire about the details of the matter. By then, a whole week had passed.
At this time, Zhang Hongcheng was not panicked at all, because he already had private requests from seven or eight local units.
He reported the names and conditions of these units to Minister Li one by one.
Minister Li was surprised and happy at the same time.
This kid is really like Sun Wukong. He can even make this difficult problem into something interesting.
How did this brain grow?
When we said we wanted to build a guesthouse, everyone around us tried to make things difficult for us.
But as soon as this guy said he wanted to build a building for employees' families, three arrogant units nearby immediately came over with their heads bowed and scraped, and the people on the street behind him were also particularly easy to talk to - if there was a shortage of people for the construction, the residents would take the initiative to come and help.
After hearing the names of these units, Minister Li began to worry again.
He didn't expect that the Grain Bureau and the Railway Bureau, which had a good relationship with him, would also secretly get involved...
None of the eight units that dared to put forward conditions to Zhang Hongcheng are easy to deal with.
So sad!
Minister Li discussed the matter with a few people for a whole day, and finally threw the problem to Zhang Hongcheng himself.
The land exchange approval will be given to you immediately, but it is up to you to decide which one to choose...
"I guess this is the Wei family's idea," Chu Miaohong said as she cooked while enjoying Zhang Hongcheng's service of wiping her sweat. "Old Mrs. Wei said it must have been her daughter-in-law's doing. She scolded her son and daughter-in-law for a long time. They want you to offend someone so that they can fulfill the favor they gave you and transfer you out of the Corps."
Zhang Hongcheng smiled and didn't take it seriously.
"Is it interesting to force a favor on someone?"
"Besides, how can they be sure that I will offend anyone?"
Zhang Hongcheng took the freshly cooked dish from his girlfriend, put it on the table, and carefully analyzed it for her.
"These eight units may seem aggressive, but they are actually different."
"The Grain Bureau and the Railway Bureau already have a good relationship with our Corps. Especially since the Grain Bureau would never offend our Corps if they offended anyone else, after all, we are the unit that supplies them with food."
"They just saw that others had done it, so they decided to give it a try too."
"Besides, foreign-related hotels and streets are easier to explain."
"The foreign-related hotel saw that the two neighboring units had already started this operation. If they didn't follow suit, their employees and superiors would think they were not enterprising."
"As for the street vendors, haha, it doesn't matter if they don't have the money, but they're also the least anxious. Because no matter which floor is completed, the residents' household registration will be registered with them, so getting a few apartments won't be a problem."
"So the ones who really had the intention to compete were the state-owned shopping malls, the Agricultural Bank of China branches, the cotton mills, and the power bureau."
While introducing them, Zhang Hongcheng diligently helped his girlfriend take off her apron.
"But the Agricultural Bank said they would handle the issue with the cotton mill, and the state-owned shopping mall also has a strong relationship with the power bureau."
Chu Miaohong angrily slapped Zhang Hongcheng's big hand away and asked, "Whose apron has buttons?"
"Then there are still two..."
"Hey, that's easy. We'll give each of the two families half! Two and a half acres each, just enough for them."
Chu Miaohong pulled him to sit down and picked up a piece of pork ribs for him.
"You've been dragging these two companies along for so long, what benefit have you gained?"
Zhang Hongcheng picked up the ribs and raised his eyebrows proudly.
"It's nothing. We used a low-interest loan of 30,000 yuan for the guesthouse business and a piece of state-owned shopping mall to build a nearly two-story rough-hewn staff building."
Chu Miaohong smiled in surprise and patted her partner.
"Doesn't that mean our reception is ready?"
"No way," Zhang Hongcheng shook his head. "Those two floors are completely unfinished, and the location is extremely remote."
"Which place is not suitable for a guesthouse? It is very suitable for other things..."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Why aren't you eating the pork ribs you're holding?"
"Honey, why are there so much sugar in these spareribs? Sugar is expensive!"
Chu Miaohong casually stuffed the ribs into someone's big mouth.
“This is sweet and sour pork ribs!”
"But isn't this a bit too much sugar?"
“This is how Hangzhou cuisine is done…”
"Miaohong, I'm telling you something, but you can't get angry."
"Hmm? Go ahead."
"Some people say, I mean some people, not me, is it possible that Hangzhou is actually a food desert?"
Over the next three days, Zhang Hongcheng ate six meals of sugar-fried chili peppers in a row.
The monthly sugar quota for two people was produced in three days.
The area used for exchanges in the state-owned shopping mall is three acres in size and is located at the junction of Huangpu District and Xuhui District.
Although their staff building had already been built into two floors, they did not lose money at all by exchanging it for two and a half acres of land in the Nanjing Road area. Instead, they made a huge profit.
Zhang Hongcheng looked at the two-story building in front of him and was in a very good mood.
Manager Chen is a responsible man. His construction team even put some finishing touches on the house before leaving.
A roof was forcibly added to the two-story red brick building. Although it looks strange, it is indeed habitable.
Every room has whitewashed walls.
It is naturally far from suitable for use as a guesthouse.
“It’s really nice here!”
The man standing next to Zhang Hongcheng was looking at the strange two-story building with shining eyes.
