Xiao Ming was stunned, and so were everyone else.
Xiao Yan, who usually spoke quietly to Xiao Ming, had gone mad today? She actually said something so harsh.
"Xiao Yan, what's wrong with you today? How did your brother offend you?" Father Xiao's face darkened.
"He didn't offend me in any way. I was just in a bad mood." Xiao Yan took a deep breath.
She has been worried and anxious all day today.
Especially seeing that twisted and hideous face overlapping with Xiao Ming's face in the raging fire.
She became even more upset and wanted to find out what had happened.
She grabbed her bag and said, "I'm not going to eat anymore. You guys eat. I have something else to do."
He left in a hurry, leaving everyone staring at each other in dismay.
Xiao Ming's expression was very aggrieved, but a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.
The next day, at the land auction.
The wealthy Hongzhi Group unexpectedly did not bid for the land this time.
Zhang Hongzhi had no intention of taking any pictures, he was just there to watch the fun.
In the end, the plot of land No. 16 was bought by competitor Binhu Real Estate at a sky-high price of 2.6 billion yuan.
The final land king was auctioned, fireworks were set off and applause was thunderous.
The banquet after the event lasted until 3 p.m.
Wang Changde, CEO of Binhu Real Estate, was beaming with joy, as if he was the protagonist of the day. He raised his glass and talked freely.
When he came up to Zhang Hongzhi, he smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, thank you for letting me have the chance. Thank you for letting me have the chance."
"What are you giving in to?" Zhang Hongzhi glanced at this guy. He was the son of his old rival and this was his first battle in taking over Binhu Real Estate.
We won the title of the land king, and I have to say it was a great battle.
"If Mr. Zhang hadn't made a move, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to win the bid for this piece of land." Wang Changde became more and more proud.
"But Mr. Zhang, I heard before that you were determined to get this piece of land. What happened today?"
"You can understand that I'm old and can't argue anymore." Zhang Hongzhi said with a smile.
"Hey, that's out of place. Mr. Zhang is just being modest." Wang Changde laughed heartily. "I will seriously develop this piece of land and strive to make it a landmark high-end real estate project in Jiangcheng."
"I'll reserve the best house for Mr. Zhang someday. Haha, opportunities are fleeting."
"I will take this opportunity as my own."
Zhang Hongzhi snorted, somewhat displeased.
After all, he is a senior, of the same generation as Wang Changde's father.
This grandson is too arrogant and presumptuous in front of me after getting a good piece of land.
At this moment, Wang Changde's secretary rushed in anxiously: "Mr. Wang."
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?" Wang Changde was a little unhappy.
"Mr. Wang, experts from the province have just come out with a survey and found that there may be a group of tombs under Plot 16." The secretary took out a file and wanted to open it.
But because he was too anxious, the file fell to the ground.
"How big is the tomb complex?" Wang Changde was shocked, but he took the information with all his strength and composure.
"There's no clear data at the moment, but according to reliable sources, this... might be a noble from an ancient, vanished nation in history."
The secretary wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The excavation is very difficult and requires meticulous work. A preliminary estimate is that it will take three years..."
"Three...years?" Wang Changde's face turned pale instantly, and the red wine in his hand almost fell to the ground.
The land auction cost 2.6 billion yuan, which almost emptied all the cash in the company's account.
If they don’t quickly cash out, their company’s capital chain will definitely break.
The risks involved are simply not something their company can afford.
Zhang Hongzhi, who was standing by, heard it all clearly. His eyelids twitched and he broke out in a cold sweat.
What Xiao Chen said actually came true.
There really is a group of tombs under the ground.
And the scale is not small.
If they had filmed this land and put it aside for three years... the consequences would be almost unimaginable.
While feeling relieved, he also became curious about Xiao Chen.
He felt that this young man was no ordinary person and had an immeasurable future.
The news that Site 16 might be shelved for three years quickly spread throughout the banquet.
The discourse at the banquet changed instantly.
Originally, Hongzhi Group did not participate in the land auction. There were rumors that Zhang Hongzhi was too old and could no longer compete.
The land king that was auctioned now faces a three-year suspension. Everyone knows that a three-year suspension can drag down Binhu Real Estate.
So the public opinion turned one-sidedly in favor of Old Man Zhang.
"Mr. Zhang didn't take action. This was predicted long ago."
"Tsk tsk, amazing! The older you get, the spicier you become."
"Mr. Zhang's vision is truly first-rate."
"Xiao Wang, investing is not only about the wind direction, but also about opportunity."
Zhang Hongzhi laughed heartily: "Go back quickly and see if there's any way to remedy this. I won't be accompanying you any longer."
He said, and walked out with the driver.
As soon as I got in the car, my son called me: "Dad, there was a problem at site 16. Fortunately, you made the decision, otherwise..."
"I already know." Zhang Hongzhi said: "I will go to the company immediately and have a meeting."
For several days in a row, Xiao Chen carried Song Ziyan upstairs and carried her down after school.
However, her injury was not serious, just a sprain, and she has almost recovered after resting for a few days.
On Thursday, Xiao Chen did not carry her upstairs due to her strong protest.
Instead, he followed behind her, protecting her carefully.
Afraid that she would fall accidentally, his gentle and caring look made the girls on several floors crazy about him.
"Look, I'm not coming up anymore?" After climbing the last floor, Song Ziyan looked at Xiao Chen with a victorious look.
"Very good, it seems that you have almost recovered." Xiao Chen nodded.
