The family struggles of the Wen family in Chengdu are filled with tenderness even when they just insult each other.
The Xie family in Beijing is different.
Xie Jinghu and his son Xie Qian are at loggerheads with each other, and the fact of the discord between them has spread throughout the social circles of Beijing. Now, all the prodigal sons in the circle admire Xie Qian very much. He is a winner in life that everyone wants to emulate, as he was able to steal 200 million yuan from Xie Jinghu.
Xie Jinghu must be furious.
But this does not affect Xie Qian's status at all.
If no one cooperated, how could Xie Qian, a high school student, steal 200 million?
This matter must have been tacitly approved by the Xie family.
Although Xie Jinghu was angry, he couldn't do anything about Xie Qian, which actually showed that Xie Qian's position in the Xie family was stable.
Every day someone wanted to ask Xie Qian to play together, but he rejected them all.
If it weren't for the New Year's Eve reunion dinner with the Xie family, Xie Qian would have returned to Chengdu long ago.
Old Mrs. Xie thought of her daughter-in-law Zou Weijun who was spending the New Year alone in Chengdu and felt very lonely and pitiful, so she specially scheduled the New Year's Eve reunion dinner at noon so that Xie Qian could still catch the afternoon flight back to Chengdu after the reunion dinner.
The father and son met at the old house of the Xie family. Xie Jinghu glanced at Xie Qian and walked past him without saying a word.
He didn't greet Xie Qian, and Xie Qian pretended not to see him.
The tension between the father and son made Xie Yuping frown.
"What did you and your dad talk about?"
"My dad asked me how I planned to develop the land. It seemed like he wanted to help me financially, but I didn't want to put too much pressure on him, so I refused."
Although Xie Qian's words were euphemistic, Xie Yuping still heard the subtext.
Based on Xie Yuping's understanding of Xie Jinghu, Xie Jinghu would not willingly pay out the money to repay the loan, but because he and the old lady were putting pressure on him, Xie Jinghu had to cooperate.
After paying for the land, he also had to continue to pay to help Xie Qian develop the land. This didn't sound like something Xie Jinghu would say.
Unless Xie Jinghu wanted that piece of land and was playing tricks on the land ownership under the name of development.
"Ignore him."
How to develop the land cannot be decided hastily. The Shanghai government has set a deadline of two years for development. Xie Qian still has two years to consider. Two years is not a short time. Who knows what changes will happen in the meantime? After two years, Xie Qian may not need Xie Jinghu's help to have the capital to develop the land.
Xie Yuping was full of confidence in Xie Qian, and Xie Qian did not hide anything from Xie Yuping.
In Xie Qian's opinion, the geographical location of the old site of the building materials factory is very advantageous. He does not have the capital to develop it now, but he cannot really leave the land idle. After all, it is a piece of land that he bought for nearly 200 million yuan. If he leaves it there unattended, every minute and every second will cost money.
Xie Jinghu was the one to pay back the loan, and Xie Qian didn't feel bad that Xie Jinghu had to pay back the principal and interest to the bank, but since the land belonged to Xie Qian, leaving it unused would be damaging to Xie Qian's own interests.
"Do you have any other ideas?"
Xie Yuping was very happy.
No matter how naive the ideas Xie Qian proposed were, they were all Xie Qian's own thoughts. He liked this child so much that he was not at all proud of having hundreds of millions of assets in his name.
"Yes, I want to do a simple renovation of the building materials factory. It doesn't cost much. I just need to paint the walls and level the floor. Then I can sublet the building materials factory."
Ordinary factories do not have the money to buy such a large piece of land, especially private small and medium-sized enterprises in Shanghai, who cannot afford nearly 200 million yuan to buy land.
Large units and factories that can afford this money can spend 200 million to buy land and build new buildings in more remote suburbs without having to compete for old sites.
However, developing small and medium-sized enterprises need to save costs and maintain cash flow, so they don’t have the money to buy land. Many of them rent other people’s space for offices and production.
Xie Qian knew that the building materials factory was in a very dilapidated state, but it wouldn't cost much to replace the doors and windows and paint the walls and level the ground. At least the rent for the next two years would be enough to cover his personal investment.
As for what kind of factory to rent, Xie Qian also has an idea in mind, but it depends on the final actual situation.
He will not delay his studies and will not bother two people with the same thing. Gong Sheng, who helped Xie Qian to buy the land, is a well-informed person in Shanghai. Xie Qian is willing to pay Gong Sheng a reward, and Gong Sheng will definitely be able to find a suitable "tenant".
"You kid..."
Xie Yuping couldn't help but smile, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were smoothed out.
Because he was still in school, Xie Qian was unable to devote himself to business. Otherwise, with Xie Qian's ability, he could have taken over Kumho Group after a few years of experience.
Xie Yuping was looking at his nephew through a filter, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. Throughout the reunion dinner, Xie Yuping kept Xie Qian by his side.
Sitting on Xie Qian's left was Old Lady Xie, and on his right was Xie Yuping. He was the most favored in the family.
Others might be jealous of Xie Qian, but the other younger generations of the Xie family, Xie Tang sympathized with Xie Qian, Xie Qi was broad-minded and didn't care about the seat at all, and Xie Qian's little cousin who was in junior high school had always loved and respected Xie Qian. She was afraid that if she got close to Xie Qian, she would be asked about her studies by the elders in the family, so she stayed away from the most popular seat.
Only my cousin Xie Qian can bear the meticulous love from our elders!
Xie Jinghu had a preconceived notion that his biological son, Xie Qian, was not as broad-minded as the younger generation. Halfway through the reunion dinner, Xie Jinghu half-jokingly and half-seriously talked about Xie Qian's "aloofness".
"This kid doesn't want my help and says he wants to develop the land himself. My son is so ambitious, and as a father, I have no choice but to respect his wishes."
Xie Jinghu took the conversation between the father and son outside the villa out of context and said it in public.
Old Mrs. Xie lost her appetite, and the other members of the Xie family were speechless.
Xie Qian put down his chopsticks and slowly wiped the corner of his mouth:
"You don't have to be like this. I know you're reluctant to spend money on me. I said I don't need your help developing the land in Shanghai. I admit this in front of the whole family. Even if I'm unable to develop the land in the future and have to sell it, I will avoid the Kumho Group and won't use your money to fill my own holes. Are you satisfied?"
