Ever since Huo Qiqi bought Liu Guanghan's villas, there have been dedicated people responsible for cleaning and maintenance of these villas.
After separating from the Goodkangs, Huo Qiqi asked Shen Lan to drive her to the villa in Repulse Bay.
Huo Qiqi's villa in Repulse Bay is located on the south side of Victoria Peak in Hong Kong. The villa is surrounded by mountains and sea. The shape of the bay outside the villa is like the crescent shape of the moon. Sitting on the balcony, you can see the blue sea in front of you, which makes people feel relaxed.
She decided to live in this villa from today onwards when she was in Hong Kong. There would be two female bodyguards living with her, the tall Chen Lan and the petite Wei Hong. They had been her bodyguards since Huo Qiqi first came to Hong Kong, until they joined the security company and became Huo Qiqi's exclusive bodyguards. Huo Qiqi trusted them very much.
The most advanced security equipment has been installed around the villa, and the security company has arranged more than 20 elite personnel to patrol around the villa.
In her previous life, Huo Qiqi was a bit attached to her bed and had difficulty falling asleep in unfamiliar places. Unexpectedly, after traveling through time, she no longer had this problem. After a good night's sleep in her own sea view villa, Huo Qiqi felt full of energy.
This was the first time Huo Qiqi stayed in bed, and she felt pretty good. She got up, washed up, and had breakfast accompanied by two female bodyguards. Then she asked Shen Lan to drive her to the group.
After arriving at the office, Huo Qiqi asked her assistant to find Old Huang and Gu Xia.
After Old Huang and Gu Xia entered the office, Huo Qiqi took out a map of Hong Kong and said to them, "Brother, Gu, we have something that requires your hard work. We need to find farmland suitable for growing medicinal herbs. This is not an easy task. Gu, you can drive, so take your master to have a look around. Let me know when you find a suitable place."
"Junior Sister, how big an area does this medicinal field need?" Gu Xia thought about it, but finally couldn't help it. She really had to ask Huo Qiqi about this matter.
"The larger the area, the more land there is. I will discuss the purchase price with others. It would be best if you can find suitable farmland."
In this way, the master and apprentice went out early and came back late. After a week, they marked several selected places and reported to Huo Qiqi.
While the master and apprentice were looking for suitable land, Hong Kong media outlets of all sizes published a news report that the Water of Life would be auctioned on June 15, which sparked a heated discussion in Hong Kong.
"Little Sister, these three plots of land all have excellent conditions for growing medicinal herbs. The largest plot of farmland is over 30,000 mu. My master and I have inquired from various sources, and the purchase price of each plot of land is different. The largest plot costs at least 1,000 yuan per mu. Moreover, I heard that other companies have also set their sights on this place and want to buy it."
Huo Qiqi asked her assistant to call Xia Laosan over and arranged for Xia Laosan to find out who wanted to buy the land. On the third day, Xia Laosan reported the situation to Huo Qiqi.
It turned out that the company that had taken a fancy to this piece of land was an agricultural product company. They wanted to buy this piece of land for real estate development under the pretext of expanding the scale of agricultural product cultivation. They were about to succeed, but for some reason, the news of buying land and building houses leaked out and was known to local farmers. The villagers did not want to see their own fields turned into houses, so the two sides have been in a stalemate.
"Well, Third Brother Xia, have you investigated clearly the reasons for your disagreement?" Huo Qiqi asked with interest.
"When asked, they originally thought that if the agricultural product company expanded its planting scale, it would definitely need to hire people, so they could do it at home and find a job."
Oh, this gives us room for maneuver. Growing medicinal herbs by ourselves requires a lot of manpower.
That afternoon, Huo Qiqi, Xia Laosan and others found the local village chief. When the village chief heard that they also wanted to buy the land, he was very unhappy.
"What on earth do you people want to do? We've already told you that you can buy the land, but the price is 2,000 yuan per mu. That's 70 million yuan per mu, not a penny less, and the land's status as farmland cannot be changed."
"Old Village Chief, that's no problem. I can pay for it. I bought this land mainly to grow medicinal herbs. If the villagers are willing to receive training in herbal herb cultivation and pass the assessment, they can come to work and earn at least 3,500 yuan a month."
"Then how many jobs are you willing to provide for the villagers?" The village chief looked at Huo Qiqi with eyes full of anticipation.
"Medicinal herbs are not like crops that need constant care. I plan to recruit 1,000 people in the early stages, and I can provide three-tenths of the jobs in the village."
The village chief calculated that in recent years, most people in the village have gone to prosperous places to make a living, and there are very few young people left in the village, so 300 jobs are not a small number.
"Boss, this is bad. The piece of land we are interested in is about to be taken away by someone," a man with a crew cut reported to his boss.
Qian Shandi, who was enjoying a foot bath, was now dissatisfied. He had been planning that piece of land for several months. Who was trying to steal the fruits? Wasn't he afraid of offending himself and the Qian family?
He quickly sent a few smart brothers to check who it was. After the brothers arrived at the village chief's house and saw Huo Qiqi and others clearly, they left.
One of the younger brothers happened to have read the report about Huo Qiqi and reported to Qian Shandi, "Boss, I know who she is. I saw her in the newspaper. It's Huo Qiqi, the goddess president of Ling Qiqi Group."
If it is really Huo Qiqi who wants to buy this land, it will be impossible to snatch it away. However, we can't just let it go like this. We need to report this matter to the Qian family.
"Dad, she's just a little girl. What are you afraid of? My Qian family is not as simple as it seems. Although she claims to be worth hundreds of billions, most of it is the value of the company. She is just a little girl. She definitely doesn't have enough funds in the bank. You have tens of billions in your account balance. Are you afraid of her?"
"Qian Ming, how could I have given birth to a son as incompetent as you? Haven't you been reading the newspaper lately? Aren't you paying attention to the auction of the Water of Life in Hong Kong?"
"Dad, what does the Water of Life have to do with you and me? You're only 40 years old and in such good health, yet you still need this kind of thing? Besides, is this Water of Life really that magical? Who can prove it? What if the Zou family leader is trying to trick us?"
After hearing his son's analysis, the head of the Qian family fell into deep thought. Yes, only Zou Chuang knew the efficacy of the Water of Life. What if it really was a trap?
"Qian Shandi, let's give up this piece of land for now. Let's wait and see if this Water of Life is related to Huo Qiqi, and see if this thing is as powerful as the legend says."
