Seeing Fu Wan's confidence, Fu Ming immediately wanted to go back to his room.
Seeing this, Fu Wan quickly called out to him, "Brother, where are you going?"
It was already dark, and the development department staff had long since left work.
Fu Ming replied matter-of-factly, "I'll go back and get my passbook to withdraw the money."
He was worried that he wouldn't have enough time by tomorrow morning, so he thought he should prepare the money for buying the land first.
Fu Wan was also helpless, so she picked up the bag of money on the table and patted it.
"Why do you need to withdraw money? Isn't there some here? Take this first, and you can return it to the group's account when you get back."
Upon hearing this, Fu Ming suddenly realized what was happening and couldn't help but slap his forehead. He was also stunned, having completely forgotten that Fu Wan had left behind the proceeds from today's trade fair.
Just as Fu Wan had predicted, today's trade fair revenue and orders were far less than the previous two days. According to Zhang Xiaoqing and Wang Jianmin, the number of merchants and citizens visiting the fair was less than a third of that of the previous two days.
However, they still sold quite a lot of goods. Many customers who felt that the products were worth reselling paid deposits and signed contracts.
On the last day of the trade fair, they received over 20,000 yuan in cash. Wang Jianmin and Zhang Xiaoqing had also compiled the relevant contracts and were preparing to go back to arrange for the workers to start production.
Before they knew it, it was the next morning. Since they didn't have to get up early for the trade fair, everyone slept in a little later than usual.
Only Fu Ming got up early; he couldn't sleep at all because he still had to buy land.
But Fu Wan hadn't gotten up yet, and he didn't dare to knock on the door, so he simply ran to the train station to buy a train ticket back to Longhai City that night, and brought back some breakfast.
When Fu Wan got up, it was already past eight o'clock. After a quick wash and breakfast, she took a taxi with Fu Ming and Fang Min to the Land Development Bureau, which they had visited the day before.
As for Wang Jianmin and Zhang Xiaoqing, Fu Wan originally wanted them to go out for a stroll on their own, but Zhang Xiaoqing insisted on waiting for Fu Wan and the others to return.
With no other option, Fu Wan could only think of a quick solution: after buying the land, she would go to the New Century Department Store to buy some Shanghai specialties to take back with her.
Section Chief Liu is currently busy assessing how much undeveloped land there is. To be honest, although some people have come to buy land recently, there are very few who have bought so much land in such a remote location like Fu Wan.
"Section Chief Liu, someone has come to the gate wanting to buy land."
Someone came to report the news, and Section Chief Liu hurriedly took the documents and went out to greet them.
"Hello comrade, which piece of land in Shanghai are you interested in buying?"
While greeting him, his eyes also took in the man in front of him.
The newcomer was wearing sunglasses, a watch of an unidentifiable brand, and sported a trendy slicked-back hairstyle. He was also wearing a floral shirt, making him stand out somewhat from the uniformed staff in the service hall.
"Section Chief Liu, right? Let me see the documents."
The man casually gave instructions to Section Chief Liu, who then handed over the land sale documents he had prepared the night before. However, the man did not take them; instead, the man in black behind him took them.
The man in black flipped through several pages, then whispered to the other man, "Boss, most of the land here is barren and not conducive to development. I don't think there's any need to invest."
Section Chief Liu was a little unhappy. "No, what do you mean by 'impoverished and undevelopable'? If there's no need to invest, why did you come here?"
Most importantly, they don't even try to hide anything from him when they talk.
Section Chief Liu was extremely frustrated, but since the man wearing sunglasses didn't say anything, he didn't know what to say either.
The man carefully examined the documents in his hand. Out of politeness, Section Chief Liu poured him a cup of tea. Just as he was about to ask the man another question, a knocking sound came from the office door.
Upon hearing the voice, Section Chief Liu looked over and saw Fu Wan. A smile immediately spread across his face.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, what brings you here today? Is there still a problem with what happened yesterday?"
Fu Wan smiled and agreed, then shook her head.
“Yesterday’s matter is fine, Section Chief Liu. Do we still have any unsold land here? My brother also wants to buy a few plots.”
After saying that, she introduced Section Chief Liu and Fu Ming to each other.
This wasn't the first time Fu Ming had greeted an official like this, so he immediately extended his hand to greet Section Chief Liu in a generous manner.
"Section Chief Liu, hello. My name is Fu Ming."
"Hey, Comrade Da Fu, hello, hello! You're also thinking of buying land? Wait a minute, I'll go get you the documents now!"
After saying that, he strode towards the desk. Hey, Comrade Fu bought hundreds of acres of land yesterday without batting an eye. Now she's brought her brother over. Will she buy a lot more?
He was initially assigned the task of selling land because he was ostracized and no one else was willing to take it on, so it ended up falling to him.
I thought this work would take several years to complete, but I didn't expect to finish almost half of it in the last two days.
Seeing how excited Section Chief Liu was, Fu Wan guessed what he was thinking.
So when she received the documents from Section Chief Liu, Fu Wan explained the situation to him frankly.
"Section Chief Liu, my brother doesn't have much money left, so he probably can't buy much. Please don't be too disappointed later."
Section Chief Liu was taken aback for a moment, then immediately laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not disappointed! I'm already very grateful that Comrade Xiao Fu is so cooperative with our work!"
It would be a lie to say I wasn't disappointed.
However, considering who has millions these days, Section Chief Liu quickly accepted reality.
Even a small amount is still something to sell; it's better than nothing at all.
Fu Wan and Fu Ming took the land for sale given to them by Section Chief Liu and began to check the land they had looked at last night. At this moment, the man in the floral shirt who had been sitting on the side watching for a long time suddenly spoke up in confusion.
"Boss Fu?"
Fu Wan and Fu Ming both looked up when they heard this. Looking at the person's face, Fu Wan felt that he looked familiar but couldn't remember him.
"Who are you?"
"I am He Sheng, don't you recognize me?"
The man stood up excitedly and, seeing that Fu Wan still looked blank, he took off his sunglasses.
"Hey, golden croaker, I bought your golden croaker before, have you forgotten?"
With his broken Mandarin and that eye-catching floral shirt, Fu Wan suddenly recalled memories of this person.
"Mr. He?!"
"Yes, yes, it's me, it's me, I'm Ho Kwok-wah."
Section Chief Liu stared in disbelief at He Guohua, who was completely different from before. Just now, this man was looking down on people, so why is he so enthusiastic now?
While He Guohua was exchanging pleasantries with Fu Wan, Section Chief Liu pulled Fu Ming aside and whispered, "Comrade Fu, do you two know each other?"
Fu Ming scratched his head. "You know him, right? If I remember correctly, he should be a businessman from Hong Kong."
Upon hearing this, Section Chief Liu suddenly realized why he seemed so difficult to deal with earlier; it turned out he was a businessman from Hong Kong.
Come to think of it, Hong Kong was indeed much more advanced than the mainland at that time, and it was quite common for Ho Kwok-wah to be so arrogant.
"You're from Hong Kong? Oh, how did you two meet?"
