Liu Jingze's expression kept changing with Su Tiantian's words, sometimes smiling and sometimes frowning slightly. After hearing the last sentence, he felt much better. Yes, this was his sister Tiantian. She was bright and intelligent, so how could she not think about himself and the Liu family?
Liu Jingze said, "Actually, the price offered by Yuan Shao is not low. The factory building on the ground was built more than ten years ago. It's only one story, with brick walls and a tiled roof. Only the office building is three stories. The factory building is really not that big compared to the land area, so the rent is naturally not much either, just over 100,000 yuan a month. If we demolish the original factory building and rebuild it into a six-story building, and build a few shops along the road, the monthly rental income will be quite high. However, demolition and reconstruction will require a lot of funds."
Su Tiantian said, "This afternoon I went to look outside the factory with some people from the company. Their opinion was similar to yours. They said that this kind of factory building is a waste of land. If we demolish it and rebuild it, it will create a lot of space and the monthly rent will increase significantly."
Liu Jingze said, "More than a decade ago, everyone in this area built factories like this, with only one floor. With economic development, things are different now, with multi-story factories. However, construction costs have increased a lot over the years, so we haven't planned to rebuild. My father actually planned to rebuild, but on second thought, we decided not to. As for the land, we don't want to sell it yet. We'll talk about it later."
Su Tiantian said: "The factory in Yanpu Town is well planned. I heard from my father that he sublet a factory of over 1,000 square meters for just over 10 yuan per square meter."
Liu Jingze said: "It was built six or seven years ago. It was well planned. The total area of the factory is more than 20,000 square meters. My father-in-law rented the factory for a low rent of 1,300 square meters at the time, and we never gave him a rent increase."
Su Tiantian looked at Liu Jingze meaningfully: "So you plan to raise the rent for your father-in-law?"
Liu Jingze's deep and gentle eyes held a hint of relief. "I'm not afraid of being scolded by you, but I'm also afraid of being beaten by Dad. The contract is for three years, and I really don't plan to raise the rent. But if you don't marry me, I will definitely raise the rent."
Su Tiantian was really angry and amused. This man was really a bit overbearing at the moment. Su Tiantian said, "It seems that I have to take control of the family's finances and become the landlady soon, so that you won't raise the rent for my father and uncle if you quarrel with me."
Liu Jingze smiled and said, "My landlady, those two old houses will be demolished in a few days. The blueprints for the new house haven't been finalized yet, and the apartment is still waiting for your opinion on the renovation. As for the factory, it's in Dad's name. If you want to be the factory's landlady, go and persuade Dad yourself. Oh, Dad also has a shop, you can also persuade him to be the landlady."
Su Tiantian was overwhelmed when she heard this and said, "Brother Jing, you take charge of the new house and the apartment renovation. I absolutely trust your vision. Also, compared to being a landlady, I think being a financial manager is also a good choice."
Liu Jingze said, "You, how many people, after getting married, want to control their husband's entire family's wealth? But you don't want to be in charge of anything. Aren't you afraid that others will find out and call you stupid?"
Su Tiantian didn't take it seriously, and was even a little proud: "Am I stupid? I'm not stupid. I have my brother Jing in my hands. Won't I have a share of everything in the future? The money I earn is mine, and I also have a share of the money you earn."
This makes sense. Liu Liangjie has only one son, Liu Jingze, and the family will be left to him in the future.
Liu Jingze said: "Okay, my sister Tiantian is not stupid. The money you earn is your own. When you spend money, remember to spend my money."
After hearing this, Su Tiantian thought it was sweet, but when she thought about how much she had to do during the four-day vacation, she said, "Oh, there are so many things to deal with during these four days of vacation. Organizing a wedding is really not easy. It's tiring."
Liu Jingze said, "You and I are lucky. Grandma, Dad, and my parents-in-law are handling all the wedding banquet matters. You should quickly list the guests you want to invite, otherwise my parents-in-law will definitely rush you tomorrow night."
The two chatted all the way and arrived home half an hour later.
It wasn't until she was about to get off the bus that Su Tiantian remembered a question: "Why did Guo Qi'an agree to sell the factory? I thought the three families had the same opinion."
Liu Jingze said, "Everyone has their own ideas. Not to mention Guo Qi'an, I can't guarantee that my uncle's opinion will be the same as mine. However, I will notify him in advance. I can guess why Guo Qi'an did this. He needs money."
Su Tiantian looked puzzled. "Why is Guo Qi'an waiting for money? Even a rotten boat still has three pounds of nails. He can work and earn money. The Guo family's factory can be rented out for tens of thousands a month, right?"
Liu Jingze said, "His father and aunt were squanderers. If Grandpa Guo hadn't had the foresight to give half of the land to Guo Qian'an's mother, they wouldn't have been able to keep the land they have now. The Guo family originally had the most land of the three families, but later, they needed money urgently. Except for the land given to Guo Qian'an's mother, they sold all the rest to his father. All that money has been spent by now."
Su Tiantian said, "Didn't you say last time that Guo Qi'an was going to have a younger brother? Then would he still be willing to sell the land and give the money to his father?"
It seemed his sister Tiantian didn't want to get off the bus unless he explained clearly, so Liu Jingze had to patiently say, "Uncle Guo is over fifty years old, but he's still so naive. His girlfriend wasn't pregnant with his child at all. After being exposed, she aborted the child and left. The main reason, of course, was that she discovered Uncle Guo had no money and the Guo family's money didn't belong to him. The 11 acres of land was in Guo Qian'an's mother's name, and of course, she didn't expect her to be gone at such a young age. Guo Qian'an only officially completed the inheritance procedures a few days ago and transferred the name to his."
Su Tiantian said, "Uncle Guo only has one son, Guo Qi'an. If Guo Qi'an sells the land, he will eventually spend all the money."
Liu Jingze said, "If he sells the land, he should first pay back the 1.3 million he owes Dad. As for what he'll do with the rest of the money, I don't know what he plans to do. Grandpa Guo is still around. He's always been a wise man. It's just that his children aren't up to par. If Guo Qi'an listens to Grandpa Guo and makes good plans, he can still live a good life in the future."
This was Su Tiantian's turn to be surprised: "The Guo family borrowed so much money from Dad?"
Liu Jingze said: "I borrowed money three times, and the total is this amount. I heard that he also borrowed money from other people."
Su Tiantian said, "That's not right. Can't this land be used as collateral for a bank loan? That way his family should have enough money to work with."
Liu Jingze said, "But the owner of the property at the time was Guo Qi'an's mother, who has passed away and cannot mortgage the property. Besides, other people who mortgaged factories only used them to fund their business. With Uncle Guo spending money like that, he couldn't even make back the monthly interest payments. How could Grandpa Guo dare mortgage the property to give him the money?"
Su Tiantian was speechless after hearing this.
Liu Jingze said, "Guo Qi'an's asking price is so high, Master Yuan won't agree to it for now. Okay, now that we've finished talking, get out of the car."
