Xue Rengui smiled upon hearing this, and then said, "Your Majesty, regardless of whether General Long is stupid or not, he is a man of great luck. So, even if he loses money, he will make it back quickly. People like him are actually more suitable for fighting on the battlefield, but Your Majesty may not be confident in using him."
Emperor Xuanzong rolled his eyes and said, "Why should I worry? The battlefield between immortals and demons is so chaotic right now. There will definitely be no problem letting this kid go. But the key is that he is not a native of our Tang Dynasty. His own luck has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty! Even if I make him a general now, don't you see that our Tang Dynasty's luck is still the same? On the contrary, this kid's luck is getting more and more. It's really hard to understand!"
"The emperor's doubts are naturally correct, but some people, no matter what the situation, can play the greatest role as long as they are placed in the right place!" Xue Rengui actually valued Long Junhai very much and had always wanted him to join the military camp. Unfortunately, Tang Xuanzong had always had a grudge against Long Junhai, and he had no choice now. After all, Tang Xuanzong still had many concerns about him! Imperial power is like this, and any emperor is the same.
At this moment, Long Junhai has begun to prepare for a grand undertaking. Everything is ready, and now he just needs to buy land and build a house!
To this end, Long Junhai contacted all the real estate agencies in Chang'an City, hoping to get the cheapest houses from these people, so that he could connect them together and build his own real estate empire!
However, when Long Junhai actually found these real estate agents, he encountered considerable trouble.
"General Long, you are a big shot around the emperor. Your affairs are our affairs, and we will naturally do our best to handle them for you. But you are still wrong about one thing. People in the entire Tang Empire know that the land in Chang'an City is very expensive and they can't afford it at all, so they will not think of entering Chang'an City to buy houses to live in. Who will you sell all the houses you build then? If no one buys the houses, how can we make money?" Many agents felt that even if Long Junhai bought the land, he would not be able to sell the houses, so they were unwilling to cooperate.
Long Junhai was not willing to explain too much about this issue. After all, I need to cooperate with smart people. If the people I cooperate with are too short-sighted, it will not be conducive to future development!
Seeing that Long Junhai remained silent, someone else stepped forward and said, "General Long, there's one more important thing. We need to know how much money you have! If we don't know exactly how much money you have to invest in real estate, even if we're willing to cooperate with you, we can't offer you much discount!"
Long Junhai smiled upon hearing this, then said, "Are you all worrying too much? How much money I plan to spend on buying houses and land is a trade secret, so how can I possibly tell you? But since we're all about to cooperate, I'll let you in a little. I'm going to buy up all of Chang'an City except for the imperial palace and the houses where ministers live! Is that enough for us to cooperate with you?"
When they heard this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, because they thought Long Junhai was drunk! Only someone who was drunk would speak so arrogantly!
"General Long, do you know how much it would cost to buy all the houses and land in the entire Chang'an City except for the imperial palace and the ministers' houses? The average price of a house in the entire Chang'an City is about 10 billion! And those houses added together amount to several billion! Can you afford such a huge number? Even if the national treasury's income for 10,000 years is added together, there is no such money!" Someone said with a smile.
In response to everyone's ridicule, Long Junhai said calmly, "Don't take on a job if you don't have the skills. I can say that because I have the financial resources!"
"General Long, although you are a general, we businessmen value integrity, and integrity is something that cannot be bought with money! As far as we know, the only industry under your control now is a bank, and it is still losing money every day. How can you buy a house in Chang'an City?" Someone else asked with a smile.
"It's still a business secret! It's up to you whether you believe it or not. If you are unwilling to cooperate, then I can only do it alone. It's just that this will consume more of my personal time and energy. You are giving up this good opportunity in vain!" Long Junhai said with a smile.
"General Long, I am willing to cooperate with you!" At this time, a middle-aged man stood up. He looked ordinary, and his cultivation was at the Golden Immortal level. There was nothing special about him.
"What's your name?" Long Junhai asked.
"General Long is really forgetful. We have cooperated before. You asked me to buy the first house in Chang'an City at that time!" This man was the boss of the agency last time. Long Junhai had met him once, but he didn't pay much attention to him at that time. Now the other party took the initiative to cooperate with him, which surprised him very much.
"Manager Liu, do you think this is reliable? Besides, how many houses do you have? Moreover, the location is not very good, and it is difficult to negotiate the price!" Someone said sarcastically.
Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, "I've worked with General Long before, so I have great trust in him. I'm willing to hand over all the properties I have to him. As for the housing prices, don't worry. I won't let those who are selling their houses suffer any losses. I'll give them the original price!"
"Haha! Is this your sincerity? Selling at the original price? Will General Long agree? I think you just want to sell all those houses that are difficult to handle!" Some people think that Shopkeeper Liu is being clever now!
Shopkeeper Liu smiled and shook his head, then said, "You're all worrying too much. I won't charge General Long a cent. I'll give him credit for free, but Mr. Long will have to pay me double the price when the time comes! What do you think, General Long?"
Hearing this, Long Junhai smiled and said, "You are a sensible person. My previous plan was to make a 50% profit concession. Now that you are so ambitious and determined, I will give you this opportunity. After the house is sold, I will pay you double the money I owe you!"
"Haha! Thank you, General Long! I will do my best to handle this matter!" Shopkeeper Liu said excitedly.
"That's not right! Manager Liu, do you have so much money? The combined funds of your entire agency can't buy ten houses, right?" Someone asked in a very doubtful manner.
Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, "Of course I don't have that much money, but I can go to General Long's bank to get a loan!"
