She first pointed to the coastal area next to the Nanshan Bay Industrial Zone and said to Yan Pengfei, "Mr. Yan, I want to build a 39-story mixed-use building in this area. The first eight floors can be used to build shopping malls, restaurants, cinemas, etc., and the floors above the eighth floor can be used to open hotels and office buildings."
“We’ll build a residential community and a villa area next door. As for factories, I’d like to open an electronics factory and an appliance factory in the industrial zone. What do you think?”
Upon hearing this, Yan Pengfei was overjoyed and replied with a smile, "Of course, no problem. May I ask how much Chairman Qiao is planning to invest?"
Qiao Shuhui replied directly, "I plan to invest around 300 million yuan in this area."
As Yan Pengfei and the others were unable to contain their joy, they heard Qiao Shuhui say, "In addition, I also want to contract the barren mountains of Dananshan and Xiaonanshan to build a top-notch eco-resort."
"I plan to invest 200 million yuan in this area. Together with the two locations, the total investment is expected to be 500 million yuan. Mr. Yan, what do you think?"
Five hundred million!!!
Yan Pengfei and Ming Yannian felt like their hearts were about to jump out of their chests.
This is the largest investment they've ever encountered. Even if they report it to higher authorities, they're sure the higher-ups will give it the green light.
After his initial shock, Yan Pengfei immediately smiled and said, "Sure, sure, Chairman Qiao, let's discuss the specific land price and our cooperation method next..."
After some discussions, Yan Pengfei, representing the Overseas Chinese Affairs Bureau, and Qiao Shuhui, representing the Qiao Group, signed an agreement to build a comprehensive Qiao Group building, residential community, villa area, and eco-resort in the Nanshan Bay Area.
Once the agreement was signed, Yan Pengfei and Ming Yannian both breathed a sigh of relief.
It's finally settled!
Yan Pengfei excitedly said to Qiao Shuhui, "Chairwoman Qiao, I will send the agreement to the higher-ups for approval right away. Please wait for my good news!"
Qiao Shuhui stood up, smiled, and shook hands with him. "Mr. Yan, it's been a pleasure doing business with you! I'll leave the rest to you. I look forward to hearing good news from you!"
Yan Pengfei's smile grew even brighter. "Okay, okay, let's go out together."
Yan Pengfei personally escorted Qiao Shuhui, Zheng Weiting, and Shen Yu into the Mercedes-Benz. After watching the Mercedes-Benz leave the gate of the China Business Bureau, he suddenly turned around and happily hugged Ming Yannian.
The two men, whose combined age was eighty, jumped and laughed like children.
"We did it! We really did it!"
The colleagues from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce who accompanied them also clapped their hands with joy, and each of them had tears in their eyes.
They started from scratch and developed step by step; it has been an incredibly difficult journey.
After his initial excitement subsided, Yan Pengfei wiped away the tears welling up in his eyes and said to Ming Yannian, "A-Nian, let's go to the municipal government."
With such a large investment, even after they agree, it still needs to go through layers of approval.
But Yan Pengfei was confident that such a large investment was something that couldn't be obtained even if one begged for it, and that the higher authorities would definitely approve it as quickly as possible.
Such a huge investment will definitely boost the development of their special economic zone quickly.
While Yan Pengfei and Ming Yannian were driving towards the city government, Shen Yu also brought Qiao Shuhui and Zheng Weiting to visit the old house.
Qiao Shuhui breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that they had arrived before midnight. She said to Shen Yu, "Luckily we arrived before midnight, otherwise it would have been a bit impolite."
Liang Sanmei and the others had been craning their necks at the door, waiting for Qiao Shuhui and the others to arrive.
Upon seeing the Mercedes parked in front of her house, they quickly called out to the whole family to come out and greet Qiao Shuhui and her family.
After Qiao Shuhui and Zheng Weiting got out of the car, Shen Yu introduced them to their respective families.
"Mommy, Uncle Zheng, these two are my parents-in-law, this is my eldest brother, this is my sister-in-law, these two are my eldest brother's second and third children, and there is another eldest child who is in middle school and will not be coming home for lunch."
Then, Shen Yu introduced her parents-in-law: "Dad, Mom, this is my mother, Ms. Qiao Shuhui, and this is my mother's husband, Mr. Zheng Weiting."
Qiao Shuhui stepped forward and shook hands with Grandpa Shi and Liang Sanmei one by one, saying with gratitude, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, for so many years, I have not been able to take care of Xiaoyuer by her side. As a mother, I have failed her very duty. I am especially grateful to you for taking care of my Xiaoyuer all this time. Thank you, my in-laws!"
After Qiao Shuhui finished speaking, she bowed deeply to them.
Liang Sanmei quickly helped her up, "In-law, you don't need to be so polite. Xiaoyu'er is one of our family now that she's married into it. She's also a good daughter-in-law, and we're very satisfied with her. We're family, so it's only right that we take care of each other. You really don't need to be so polite."
Grandpa Shi nodded repeatedly in agreement.
After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Yu pulled the three children surrounding her over and said to Qiao Shuhui, "Mommy, these three little ones are your precious grandchildren."
"This is the eldest brother, his full name is Shi Zichen, and his nickname is Chenchen."
"This is the second son, his full name is Shi Zikang, and his nickname is Kang Kang."
"This is the third child, whose full name is Shi Zishu and nickname is Shushu."
She then introduced the three children, "Chenchen, Kangkang, and Xiaoshu, this is your maternal grandmother. Quickly greet her."
Little Chenchen, Little Kangkang, and Little Shushu obediently greeted, "Hello, Grandma!"
Looking at her three grown-up grandchildren, who were so cute and beautiful, Qiao Shuhui couldn't help but burst into tears.
She reached out and patted the heads of the three children. "Good children, come here, Grandma will give you red envelopes."
