Chapter 73.
The happy holiday was short. After a simple rest, Qian Yirong once again devoted herself to entrepreneurship. With no shortage of connections and funds, the company's development speed stunned everyone who knew about it.
The time came for a land auction, and the company represented by Qian Yirong also got an admission ticket, which meant that she now had a preliminary opportunity to go on stage, and this was also the opportunity Qian Yirong had been waiting for.
This land auction is not an important plot, but Qian Yirong has obtained important information about this land auction from some fragments. As long as she can grasp it, she can't directly compete with the Mu family, but she can also reach a level that the Mu family will not easily take action against.
Not many companies received invitations to this land auction organized by the government. After all, there was not much land up for auction this time, but some of them were relatively important and would definitely fetch a high price. Some companies without sufficient funds did not receive an invitation.
Qian Yirong arrived relatively early, and her seat was arranged relatively far back. Although she received an invitation, neither the government that was bidding nor other forces participating in the auction took her emerging company seriously.
As the land auction was about to begin, the big companies finally arrived. Qian Yirong was sitting in a corner, so some people who came with their elders to broaden their horizons naturally did not notice her.
"Welcome everyone to participate in this land auction..." The land auction began. The staff came on stage with documents and first said some official words according to the procedure. Then the auction process began.
"The first piece of land is in the east of the city, numbered P35..." the staff member introduced, and then the situation of the land numbered P35 was also displayed on the projection screen.
Qian Yirong's eyes became more serious. She signaled to Zhou Rongruan beside her. Zhou Rongruan was a little surprised. Qian Yirong had told her before coming that if she gave her a signal, she must give her the right to use that piece of land.
Having been with Qian Yirong for some time, Zhou Rongruan was completely impressed by the strength she displayed. So even though Qian Yirong indicated that the land she must bid for was a recognized useless waste land, she still started bidding after the auction of this waste land began.
Because the location of this land is not very good, but the land is quite large, the starting price is still very high. Fortunately, not many people are interested in this land. It is better to say that everyone regards this land as a hot potato and no one bids at all.
So basically Zhou Rongruan bought the land at the starting price. She looked at Qian Yirong with some uneasiness. After all, the starting price of this land was over 100 million yuan, and she had never come into contact with such a large flow of funds.
"Well done." Qian Yirong said to her, which made Zhou Rongruan breathe a sigh of relief that she did not mess up the task assigned to her by her boss.
Because someone actually made a bid for this piece of land that was generally considered a wasteland, even the families sitting in the front row looked back a few times. Although there were many people around, someone who had always been "very concerned" about Qian Yirong immediately spotted her.
"...It's Qian Yirong." Mu Zexuan murmured.
"Did you see someone you know?" asked the head of the Mu family when he saw that his son seemed to know the person who had just bought the wasteland.
"It's a bit far away, but it looks like Qian Yirong." Mu Zexuan replied.
"The Qian family?" The head of the Mu family remembered the family that his son solemnly introduced at his grandfather's birthday party, and asked with narrowed eyes.
"She is not considered a member of the Qian family..." Mu Zexuan whispered about the situation between Qian Yirong and the Qian family, and emphasized that Qian Yirong had nothing to do with the Qian family.
"Fortunately, you don't like her, otherwise I would definitely separate you from her." said the head of the Mu family. After all, in his opinion, Qian Yirong had no vision. If Mu Zexuan liked her, with the importance Mu Zexuan showed towards the person he liked, he would definitely listen to the opinions of the person he liked, which would definitely affect the Mu family.
"I don't like her." Mu Zexuan muttered.
The head of the Qu family, who was sitting not far from the head of the Mu family, vaguely heard something. He frowned when he remembered what his daughter had said to him recently. The head of the Qu family looked at Qu Qingyu, who was slacking off beside him, and whispered, "Sit up straight. What's wrong with you?"
"I didn't want to come in the first place, but you insisted on bringing me here saying that I wanted to see the world. It's so boring here." Qu Qingyu appeared to be indifferent, but his eyes were full of mockery. He knew clearly that Qu Qingyu knew nothing about these things, and brought him here to show his ignorance in front of outsiders.
"Be serious. Didn't your sister say that she opened a company in partnership with someone? What was that person's last name?" asked the head of the Qu family.
"My surname is Qian, and I used to be a member of the Qian family." Qu Qingyu replied.
"Go back and tell your sister that it's okay to be friends with him, but forget about doing business with him. That person has no vision, and you will only lose all your money if you partner with him. Although our family doesn't lack that little money, it will still make a sound if you throw it into the water. But you will only lose more money if you cooperate with someone with poor vision." said the head of the Qu family.
"I understand. I will tell my younger sister." Qu Qingyu did not refute the words of the head of the Qu family. If he were to tell his younger sister in person, the two of them would definitely end up in a quarrel. As for him, it was up to him whether to say it or not.
As she bought the land, Qian Yirong felt the gazes coming from all directions, and these gazes were all mocking and malicious. Qian Yirong did not feel embarrassed because she knew that she had picked up a big bargain.
Because the east part of the city will soon be included in the economic development zone, and the land she bought is right in the center of the economic development zone. Once the documents for the economic development zone come down, no matter how she uses this land, the profit will conservatively be estimated to be more than 9 billion.
Although the plot of the book is no longer of reference value, the information obtained from some details is still very useful. For example, at a cocktail party in the near future, it will be mentioned that a piece of land that was recognized as wasteland failed to be sold at this land auction.
But no one expected that half a month later, the east part of the city where the land was located was designated as an economic development zone, and its value soared. Unfortunately, no one bought it when the auction price was low.
Qian Yirong took advantage of this information gap to obtain this piece of land whose value would skyrocket. Her purpose of coming to this land auction had been achieved, and now she could only watch the show.
The land auction ended soon, and Qian Yirong took Zhou Rongruan to register, completely grasping the land in her hands. Qian Yirong, who had achieved her wish, showed a relaxed smile on her face.
It's a pity that her good mood was ruined after she went out, because she saw Mu Zexuan, who was dressed formally, standing not far away as if waiting for her. Qian Yirong originally planned to ignore him and walk past him.
"Hey," Mu Zexuan called out to Qian Yirong, who was ignoring him. He sneered, "I didn't expect you to be here."
"Tsk," Qian Yirong gasped. "It's harder for me to get in, so he's certainly not as good as Mu Shao who came with his father."
When Mu Zexuan heard her say this, the veins on his forehead bulged. He understood that Qian Yirong was saying that he was able to participate in the land auction with the help of the Mu family, while Qian Yirong came here through her own strength.
"You..." Mu Zexuan said angrily, "I know you deceived Xue'er and asked her to do business with you. Now you spent so much money to buy this wasteland. Let's see how you will explain it to her."
"Mr. Mu, don't worry about our affairs. You should take care of yourself." After Qian Yirong said this, she took Zhou Rongruan away.
Mu Zexuan looked at her back as she left and gritted his teeth in anger. Ever since Qian Yirong left school, it had become increasingly difficult for him to get in touch with Xu Baiqing. It was not easy for him to laugh at Qian Yirong on one thing, but instead he was so angry at her that he was speechless. Mu Zexuan turned away, thinking that he wanted to see how Qian Yirong would end up after spending so much money to buy a piece of waste land.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Qian Yirong, who had just returned home, received a call from Xu Baiqing. She asked on the phone, "Rongrong, are you okay?"
"You know?" Qian Yirong raised her hand and loosened her tie, with a hint of fatigue between her brows. She heard the implication of Xu Baiqing's words. She should know what happened at the land auction.
"Well, someone told my dad about you buying a piece of waste land at the land auction. He got very angry at home and said..." Xu Baiqing hesitated to speak.
"I know, it's just that they kicked me out or something like that," Qian Yirong didn't care at all. She asked, "Do you believe me?"
"Of course I believe it." Xu Baiqing answered impatiently.
"That's all," Qian Yirong chuckled. "I won't get angry or sad because of someone who has nothing to do with me. Don't worry, this matter will have a result in half a month at most."
Xu Baiqing knew that there was something else behind this matter from what Qian Yirong said. She also knew that Qian Yirong would not do anything without certainty. She was originally just worried about Qian Yirong's mood, but now she felt more relieved to see that she was not affected.
"That's good," Xu Baiqing sighed, "but I guess it won't be easy for me to see you during this period."
"It's okay, we can still call or ask Xue'er for help." Qian Yirong knew what Xu Baiqing meant. After what happened at the land auction, the Qian family became even more pessimistic about her. Before the documents from the economic development zone came down, they definitely wouldn't want Xu Baiqing to contact her.
But there are definitely more solutions than problems. If you want to meet, you can always find an opportunity. What's more, there is Qu Xueer. She can always come up with good ideas. Thinking about it this way, meeting secretly can be quite exciting.
"That's right. I won't listen to them anyway." Xu Baiqing's mood also improved. She was not a good girl. Would she really be obedient if she was not allowed to see Qian Yirong?
