Xie Tuoyu sat up in bed, took out his laptop from the drawer, and started typing on the keyboard.
After a while, he took a deep breath and analyzed with Yi Mu how much money it would cost to acquire the land and handle the subsequent work.
"I roughly estimate that it will cost 150 million to acquire this land."
The subsequent cleanup and foundation reconstruction will require a lot of manpower and resources, as well as manual diversion.
"We'll transplant some rare fruit seedlings here, once the resort is completed and open..."
Yi Mu interrupted him.
"Stop, stop! Who said we were going to build a resort? Who the hell would come to build a resort in this godforsaken place unless they're rich and stupid?"
Xie Tuoyu was surprised that his young master would swear, but Yi Mu quickly analyzed the situation for him.
"I heard from my father that this city will undergo a qualitative change in at most two years."
The authorities intend to develop this area into an economic zone, and several key high schools and primary schools will be established nearby, which will inevitably drive up the demand for school district housing.
An hour's drive from the village, there's a university town. Do you know what that means?
Xie Tuoyu had a vague idea in his mind, but he didn't say it aloud. Instead, he humbly asked, "What are your plans?"
"We will build a theme park, and preserve some orchards next to it for self-service fruit picking."
The ticket price shouldn't be too high; those students don't have much money, and the most important thing is that it's something new and exciting.
These are all the ideas I have for now. There are some other plans to come, which the team will need to research and discuss.
As expected of a PhD who studied abroad, Xie Tuoyu was certain that Yi Mu hadn't had this idea before coming to the village; it must have been a decision he made after returning home.
Although Xie Tuoyu had been hanging out with the eldest son of the Yi family for many years, the other party had always maintained a haughty attitude.
Each time, she would only show Xie Tuoyu a little bit of small fish and shrimp to eat.
Not a single word of this inside information was given to Xie Tuoyu.
Xie Tuoyu gave him a lot of money, both openly and secretly, and the first person he thought of after receiving the benefits was Young Master Yi.
The other party accepted everything without question, and on the surface, they smiled and called each other brothers, but in reality, they did not regard Xie Tuoyu as an equal to themselves at all.
Even though Xie Tuoyu is no longer the junior who used to serve tea and water at the dinner table, Young Master Yi still doesn't take him seriously.
Xie Tuoyu was just coaxing him; he didn't mean anything by it, he was just using Yi Dashao's connections.
As the eldest son in the family, Yi Da Shao was skilled in business in his early years and was well-liked by the old man.
A few years ago, the old man expressed his intention to hand over the company to his eldest son.
For a time, the outside world thought that the next leader had already been decided and rushed to curry favor with him.
Young Master Yi became arrogant and overconfident after being flattered, causing his company management to fall into disarray. He even engaged in illicit sexual relations with female subordinates, resulting in his reputation plummeting.
At this critical moment, Imu returned.
There was an incompetent eldest son, a mediocre second son, a daughter who posed no threat, and a youngest son who caused trouble all day long.
The third son of the Yi family, an evergreen tree that grew stronger and stronger, naturally won the old man's favor.
Looking at their achievements over the past six months, the two brothers mentioned above are utterly ashamed in comparison.
Xie Tuoyu believed that rather than hanging himself on Yi Dashao's tree, which was already rotten to the core, it would be better to find a new powerful patron.
Yi Mu is clearly a promising talent, and Xie Tuoyu, having achieved what he has now, is willing to take a gamble.
"I need to think about it. I'll give Third Young Master an answer when we meet next time."
Yi Mu didn't want to give Xie Tuoyu a long time to consider.
He needs Xie Tuoyu, this invisible golden finger, to help him rise to a higher position.
The struggle for succession is more brutal and ruthless than imagined, and Yimu has no choice but to win.
If he fails, his two half-brothers, who are eyeing him covetously, will not allow him to exist as an eyesore.
