Chapter 256 How many surprises do you have that I don’t know about?
Duanrao's answer was both unexpected and reasonable.
In fact, after cutting the raw material that day, Du Anrao ran excitedly to find Du Desheng.
Taking the rough material that produced two top-grade raw stones as an example, she thought she had used her eloquence to convince Du Desheng that the reason why she spent a huge amount of money to buy the two plots of land in the northern suburbs of the southern district was because she calculated with her fingers that there was a gold mine buried under the wasteland in the northern suburbs.
After listening to Du Anrao's explanation, Du Desheng also showed a surprised expression, and then asked the same question as Xi Jingyue.
Du Anrao was more inclined to sell the land at that time. After all, although she had the right to use the land, she did not have the right to mine the gold mine. Although the gold mine appeared on the land she bought, it was useless if it could not be mined. It would be better to sell it to developers who had the mining rights.
After listening to her plan, Du Desheng was silent for a long time and told her an embarrassing thing: minerals are natural resources and must be handed over after discovery and cannot be bought and sold privately.
Du Anrao: “???” Is this true? Wouldn’t the money I spent on buying the land be wasted?
Du Desheng: "...That's not the case. You can use the land as a share. You may not get your money back in the short term, but the upside is that at least you can get a number from the higher authorities, and you can get some preferential treatment in the future."
Du Anrao did not think as far-sightedly as Du Desheng, but she believed in the old man's judgment. After listening to his analysis that night, she calmed down and just waited for the gold mine under the ground to be detected and then handed it in with the relevant documents.
When Xi Jingyue learned the whole story, he was surprised but also made a quick decision in his mind.
"It looks like I have to go in with you to see Mr. Du again."
Duan Rao was stunned for a moment, thinking of his great-grandfather's disdain for the man in front of him, and asked reluctantly, "Do you have something important to discuss with him?"
[If not, why don't we just not go? I don't know what's wrong with my uncle, he's really disgusted with you. If you go there now, you might get scorned again. Why bother?]
Xi Jingyue: “…” It’s okay, I’m thick-skinned and used to it.
"Didn't you just say that I'm well-informed? Then do you know why I'm so well-informed?"
"Why?"
"Because my family has the gold mining rights, I pay special attention to this kind of news. This is called professional matching."
Duan Rao: “???” Although I don’t go to school, I read a lot of books. This is not how the word is used, right?!
"Wait, what did you just say?"
"Professional counterparts?"
"The previous sentence..."
“My family has gold mining rights.”
"Is there anything else that you don't have at home?"
[Hospitals, jewelry, land development, and now gold mining rights... How many surprises do you have that I don't know about? Mr. Xi, are you Doraemon? Can you take out anything I need from your pocket just by shouting? ]
"I'm sorry, but I have a lot of assets. Sometimes I forget how many properties I have to inspect and manage."
Du Anrao: “…” What a choking Versailles statement. Suddenly I understood why my uncle disliked Mr. Xi so much. This guy is too pretentious.
Xi Jingyue: “…” I didn’t say that, don’t talk nonsense!
"Then why Mr. Xi is looking for my great-uncle this time..."
"Since you are interested in transferring it, and my family happens to have the mining rights, you can just mention it when you hand it over and ask them to give me the mining quota."
Duan Rao didn't understand the twists and turns here, but was shocked: "Can it be like this?"
Xi Jingyue laughed: "You have already handed over the land, so it is not too much to ask for such a request. After all, the gold mine cannot be left as a decoration after it is handed over. It must be mined to be valuable. For them, it doesn't matter who is mined, so they might as well give you this face."
"Is that so?" Duanrao stroked his chin thoughtfully.
Duanrao's original purpose in buying this land was that he didn't want it to fall into the hands of some people with ulterior motives, which would unnecessarily strengthen the other party's strength and help them to cause trouble for himself.
But if according to Du Desheng's statement, this land must be handed over now if gold is dug out, it might be returned to that person in the process of being handed over. Wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?
But if we specifically ask Xi Jingyue to handle this gold mine...
"That's fine. Mr. Xi helped me to buy this piece of land. Since Mr. Xi's family has the mining rights to the gold mine, I will try to mention it when the time comes. But I can't guarantee whether it will succeed."
"That's enough. My family is very experienced in this area. There aren't many competitors who can compete with us in this matter. Your few words are enough to increase this advantage and give us the upper hand."
"That's good."
[It doesn't matter who you give it to, as long as it's not given to those guys who want my great-grandfather's property. Giving it to Mr. Xi is a good way to keep the money within the family.]
Xi Jingyue was stunned for a moment, feeling helpless and amused.
So, in the eyes of this little guy, I am no longer an outsider?
Fortunately, Du Desheng and others could only hear what Du Anrao was thinking, but not Xi Jingyue's voice, otherwise they would be so angry that they would call the police overnight.
But even though he didn't know what he was thinking, Du Desheng's attitude towards him was not much better.
After learning the reason why he followed Duan Rao into the house, Du Desheng laughed out of anger and scolded him mercilessly: "Are you a dog? You come running here to look for meat as soon as you smell something. I have lived to such an old age, but I have never seen someone as shameless as you!"
"First you took the lakeside land in the southern district for development, and now you want the gold mine too. Aren't you afraid of choking to death from eating too much?"
"The mining profits will be divided equally between An An."
Du Desheng choked, and then became even more furious: "Don't give me these sugar-coated bullets, she doesn't need money!"
"I know she's not short of money, but no one would think too much money is a problem. Besides, I think you want her to just lie down and collect the money without taking any risks."
Du Desheng narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness appeared between his brows.
This is why he rejects the person in front of him from the bottom of his heart. Although his little granddaughter is shrewd, she would be eaten to pieces as soon as they meet this treacherous guy who has eight hundred tricks and can leak out even a drop even if he is used to hold water.
Du Desheng stared at Xi Jingyue for a long time, and seeing that he remained calm and not at all weak, he seemed to be aggressive and bullying the younger generation.
He snorted coldly and said, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, kid. There are many people eyeing this gold mine. You took over the land in the southern area before, which was already eye-catching enough. If you really take away this gold mine, you will really become the target of public criticism."
"Isn't this you?"
Du Desheng: “???”
Xi Jingyue smiled harmlessly: "With you here, I believe no one will dare to touch me easily. You will not let me down, right?"
