"Uncle Zheng, are you really willing?"
Wang Qian was overjoyed.
A look of anticipation also appeared on Song Lu's and Zhao Kang's faces.
When Wang Qian mentioned earlier that they couldn't find a suitable venue, they were also facing some difficulties.
After all, they came from Linjiang City and were unfamiliar with Nanming County. If even Wang Qian, a local, couldn't find them, where were they supposed to look for him?
That would be great if Zheng Shouyi were willing to provide the land.
You see, that tea plantation is not only flat, but also close to here, with convenient transportation, making it the perfect choice for building a factory.
“Although this company is no longer mine, I still have feelings for it. If you can make this company bigger and stronger, I will be very gratified.” Zheng Shouyi smiled.
"Thank you in advance, Uncle Zheng!"
Wang Qian nodded gratefully, then tentatively asked, "Uncle Zheng, what price do you want?"
Buying land is no small matter. Even if it's in the suburbs, a dozen acres would cost two or three hundred thousand yuan at the current market price.
If Zheng Shouyi takes the opportunity to raise the price to four or five hundred thousand, he will have no choice but to find another way.
"I don't know much about land prices, just give me whatever you think is fair!"
Zheng Shouyi waved his hand dismissively.
"this……"
Now it was Wang Qian's turn to be in a dilemma. "Uncle Zheng, this is no small matter. Why don't you think it over carefully, or find out the market price and then give us an accurate price?"
If the amount is too high, he won't be able to handle it.
He didn't want to take advantage of Zheng Shouyi if he gave too little.
After all, Zheng Shouyi was indeed an honest man with a particularly kind heart, and he had no children.
Therefore, he felt that Zheng Shouyi should find someone to ask and reach a deal in a way that would be fair to both parties.
"Xiao Qian, are you treating me like an outsider?"
Zheng Shouyi suddenly became a little anxious, "I really don't know what the market price is, just give me whatever you think is fair."
Seeing that Wang Qian was still frowning, Zheng Shouyi said with a forced smile, "How about you give me fifty or sixty thousand?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Qian, Zhao Kang, and Song Lu's eyes widened instantly.
They were worried that Zheng Shouyi would ask for an exorbitant price, and then they thought it would be difficult to bargain because they were acquaintances. In the end, he only asked for fifty or sixty thousand.
What's the difference between this and giving it away for free?
"Uncle Zheng, do you know what the current land price is in the suburbs of the county?"
After a brief moment of surprise, Wang Qian asked with a wry smile.
"How many?"
Zheng Shouyi seemed completely unaware of the market price, and even asked, "Does that mean fifty or sixty thousand is higher than the market price?"
Wang Qian wiped away a cold sweat and said truthfully, "With the size of your garden, if you were to sell it, it should fetch around 300,000."
"What? Three hundred thousand? That much?"
Zheng Shouyi was instantly frightened.
But then he thought about it again and said with a wry smile, "But no matter what the market price is, since I said I'd give you fifty or sixty thousand, take it if you want it."
Wang Qian, Zhao Kang, and Song Lu exchanged glances, and both saw emotion in each other's eyes.
Zheng Shouyi's offer of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan without knowing the market price was a sign of ignorance.
but,
Even after he quoted the market price, Zheng Shouyi still insisted on giving them a price of fifty or sixty thousand, which is truly commendable.
"Don't look at me like that. I have no children, and my wife and I are getting old. We don't need that much money. As long as it's good for the company, a lower price is fine."
After a pause, Zheng Shouyi continued, "I'm too old and useless now. If I stay in the company, I might become a burden to you. But I really don't want to leave. I just hope you won't kick me out. I'd even be willing to sweep the floor or do some odd jobs."
"Uncle Zheng, please don't say that!"
Wang Qian hurriedly said, "You are now the company's consultant. Without your technical support, we simply couldn't have made it."
He paused, then added, "Furthermore, I swear to God, even if we master all the technology, the entire Lehehe Company will always be your home, and you can come and go freely anytime, anywhere."
Beside him, Zhao Kang chimed in, "Uncle Zheng, you are a veteran of the company. As long as Xiao Lu and I are still in management positions, we will never let you suffer the slightest grievance."
Song Lu added, "Uncle Zheng, we will always treat you as our elder."
Upon seeing Wang Qian and the other two make such assurances, Zheng Shouyi's eyes immediately reddened.
He has never had any children, and his greatest obsession is this cheerful black tea.
Although the company has now been sold entirely to Wang Qian, as long as it continues to operate, it's like watching his own children grow up.
As for the market price of the land, he really doesn't care.
In the first half of his life, he and his family ran a tea business and had accumulated enough savings. In addition, after selling the Lehehe Black Tea Beverage Company, he saved another 100,000 yuan, which was more than enough for his retirement.
In this situation, money is no longer a possession to him.
His lifelong dream was for his Happy Tea brand to grow and become a popular beverage.
Of course, despite his long-cherished wish, he himself was not optimistic about it, otherwise he would not have sold it to Wang Qian for a mere 100,000 yuan.
As a result, Wang Qian suddenly performed remarkably well, far exceeding his expectations.
For him, it was like his children, whom he was about to give up on, suddenly getting into a top university. No matter how much effort he put into the company, he was willing to do it.
"Uncle Zheng, if you are really willing to sell this garden to us, I will not treat you unfairly!"
Moved, Wang Qian said, "How about this, I'll give you 400,000 yuan, slightly higher than the market price. That way you won't lose out, and I can feel more at ease using it to build the company's factory!"
"Really, you don't need it!"
Zheng Shouyi waved his hands repeatedly, "As long as you develop and expand your company, I would be willing to give you this land to build factories!"
Wang Qian was at a loss for words, unsure of what to say to his legal advisor.
After exchanging glances with Zheng Shouyi for a moment and seeing the sincerity on the other's face, he simply nodded and said, "Alright, then thank you in advance, Uncle Zheng!"
"Okay, you can handle the land purchase process yourselves. I'll sign all the necessary documents. Just contact me anytime."
With that, Zheng Shouyi left.
Wang Qian watched the other person walk away before turning back to Zhao Kang and saying, "From now on, whether I'm at the company or not, you must treat this old man well."
"You don't need to tell us, we know how!" Zhao Kang quickly assured him.
"Thank you!" Zheng Shouyi was moved to tears.
...
At Wang Qian's instruction, Song Lu quickly printed out the contract for purchasing the land.
Zheng Shouyi didn't even look at it before signing it.
But in reality, he was barely literate, and even if he looked closely, he couldn't understand it.
Zheng Shouyi was quite agreeable, but after Wang Qian sent people from Sky Pavilion Construction Company to start construction, one of Zheng Shouyi's relatives jumped out and obstructed the project.
