I’m so angry! I’m really so damn angry!
This week, I bought 20 ores and all of them had nothing! I lose over a million this way! But I tolerated it!
I knew I was unlucky, but I didn’t know that I was this unlucky! This damn Hong Dali! This pest who keeps interfering with me! I finally managed to get in touch with him, but he actually asked me to go and develop a barren land, develop a barren land! What is there to develop there! I really wish to send him to see Stalin!
I didn’t come to Hebei province just to get a pain in my balls, this place is really pretty good.
But now, I didn’t manage to buy the land, I don’t have any construction to do too, how am I supposed to live now!?
He is really revolting against me, I really wish I can cut away his stick that’s a hindrance to him, then send 700,000 people to fu*k him together! To fu*k him together!
In his heart, Li Yuanshou hated Hong Dali until he wished he could kill him, but he didn’t dare to show it on his face. Therefore, his expression now was quite interesting. “This, Young Master Dali, developing that barren land… Is there any value?”
There was only a main road on that piece of barren land. Develop housing estates there? Who would be so silly to buy a house there? Even if people wanted to squander, they wouldn’t squander in such a way!
“I have no idea too.” Hong Dali’s face was full of innocence. “But there isn’t anywhere else to develop in the city!”
“This…” Li Yuanshou’s face was full of tears. This period, he barely sold any of the houses he constructed because everyone wanted to buy houses at the West Fourth Loop. Yet, he didn’t have any land there, so he was quite depressed. “Then, Young Master, the fee for the construction team…”
“About this, we will pay on the spot.” If it was just spending money, Hong Dali was best at doing this. “Let’s just settle the fee on a weekly basis. For this aspect, you have to ask Xiaoyi. I don’t really know about such stuff, I only know how to spend money.”
These words from Hong Dali caused Li Yuanshou to almost want to strangle him alive.
Your ability to earn more as you spend more is really… You are really causing such a setback to people!
However, regardless of other things, since Hong Dali said that he won’t delay the wage payment, that he definitely won’t. Since my construction team doesn’t have anything else to do now, I might as well just develop that barren land with Hong Dali. The luck of this Young Master is always very amazing—I just saw that for myself. Maybe something good really will happen if I follow him?
Thinking up to this point, Li Yuanshou hurriedly asked, “Then, Young Master Dali, do you have any specific plans? That piece of land is really quite big, its range should be at least 7 to 8 kilometers. If we just develop it directly like this—the crucial part is, I don’t know what I am supposed to build!”
If there’s nothing to build, how am I supposed to develop it?
“That’s true.” Hong Dali touched his chin and thought for a while. He asked, “Then, get me a map for me to take a look.”
“OK!” Being the director of a housing estates company, he always had a map with him. Li Yuanshou directly took out the map of Tianjing City’s West Fourth Loop, found a table and lay the map on it. He carefully smiled and said, Young Master Dali, this is the map of the West Fourth Loop. Please take a look.”
“Hm…” Hong Dali looked at the map like he was really interpreting it. Then, he asked, “Which side is East?”
Li Yuanshou directly collapsed…
“This side.” Wiping off his sweat, Li Yuanshou pointed at the various locations on the map. “This is the West Fourth Loop, this is Ye Lai Xiang, this is the Sports Stadium, this is Fengyuan Lake, this is the highway to Tianjing Mountain…”
“Oh, I understand now!” It was simple now that he had landmarks to refer to. Hong Dali pointed at the outer area of Tianjing Mountain. “I’m building a school here. Near the school, I will also need to have places like eateries, canteens, stationery shops and such, don’t you agree?”
Since those were near his school now too, Hong Dali naturally just stated those things too.
“Yes, you are right.” Li Yuanshou nodded. “Then, shall we build a commercial building near the school?”
“Buildings can wait, my school’s style is slightly special.” Hong Dali shook his hand. “Don’t rush into constructing buildings and such, help me to advise on what I need first.”
“OK.” Li Yuanshou nodded. “I’m good at that.”
“Then, let’s construct a commercial street for daily use here first.” Hong Dali laughed and said, “Construct it next to the school’s castle wall.”
“If we construct it near the school, it will definitely be easy to rent out…” Speaking up to here, Li Yuanshou felt that something was wrong. “The school’s castle wall!?”
“Yup.” Hong Dali smiled and said, “My school is built according to… the scale of a castle town.”
Li Yuanshou: “…”
What the heck! This is the first time I am hearing a school built on the scale of a castle town!
Are you planning to revolt?
“Building the school like it’s a castle town…” However, very quickly, Li Yuanshou realized something. “Young Master Dali, are you planning to directly build a city on this barren land?” If even the school was a castle town, then there definitely must be a lot of buildings near it!
“Huh? A city!?” Hong Dali mumbled and looked at the map again. The more he looked, the brighter his eyes were. “It really seems quite suitable…” Saying so, he hurriedly asked Tang Muxin who was beside him, “Xinxin, do you think it’s a good idea if I just directly build a city here!?”
Tang Muxin: “…”
Are you seriously intending on building a city?
Tang Muxin frantically said, “Dali, are you really joking this time? A city! An entire city! How much will that cost!”
“Not a lot, right?” Hong Dali started counting on his fingers. “The land should be brought over soon, and this Director Li is into constructions, it isn’t a problem for the school too… It really doesn’t seem to need a lot of money!”
As he counted up to here, Hong Dali felt that he had finally found the goal for his life!
I want to squander! I want to squander on a large scale! I want to squander on an enormous scale!
I want to build a city in this world! A city like Dubai from my previous life! I even want to build a city better than Dubai! I shall become the first mayor of this city!
“I have decided!” Hong Dali laughed loudly and said, “I’m going to build a city on this piece of barren land! I shall make this city the most luxurious city on the whole planet! I’m going to build an eight-star hotel! I’m going to build an airport! I’m going to build a high technology science fiction city! I’m going to let the police in this city drive Prayer Angels to go and catch thieves!”
“This city, it shall be called Tian Di!”
Brouhaha! By that time, I shall be the first mayor of Tian Di City! By that time, my statue shall be placed in the center of the city!
Once Hong Dali said this, everyone around face-palmed— Young Master is going to squander again!
This time, he is going to squander very heavily! He wants to build a city!
The police in the city will even be driving Prayer Angels to catch thieves—huh, will there even be thieves in such a city?
Although the others were thinking that way, Li Yuanshou almost cried out in happiness instead— how much construction work will that be! From now on, I shall decisively work for Young Master Dali!
Therefore, Li Yuanshou nodded, bowed and smiled. “Then, from now on, I shall call you Young Master too. I see that this is how everyone calls you…”
“OK!” This Li Yuanshou reminded Hong Dali of building a city, so he should be rewarded. “You can pick one of the jades that I got just now. Oh right, you can’t touch those that I like!” Since it was all just attributes that added Agility, Reflexes and such, and he couldn’t sell them too, he might as well give it away to others!
Li Yuanshou instantly felt that he was going to faint from happiness! This happiness came too suddenly, he could barely accept it!
His company was just worth a few hundred million in total, and it was mostly fixed assets. It was considered good if his company could have a profit of tens of millions a year. However, Hong offered him a jade worth millions just like that. Li Yuanshou was deeply grateful, it was worth calling him Young Master. “Young Master, then… I shan’t be courteous with you. I promise! I shall only work for Young Master alone from now on! I will offer the lowest rate for all of your constructions!”
At the side, Lao Deming heard all of their conversations and was really impressed!
Who said that Young Master is foolish and rich? Look at his techniques in buying over the hearts of people. If the construction is really all based on the lowest rates, not to even mention a city, just the cost saved from constructing a few large buildings will be enough to buy ten jades like this!
Yet, this Li Yuanshou still feels very grateful to the Young Master. Sigh, just a casual move from Young Master and he already earned such a marvelous result!
Impressed! I’m really impressed!
Very quickly, Li Yuanshou picked a jade that was not bad and placed it beside him like a treasure. Even his eyes were happy—of course, his enthusiasm for work increased too. “Young Master, look. Your school is here, right? Then, there definitely needs to have all kinds and sorts of shops nearby. So, we will need a commercial street. Then, with this commercial street, we will also need people. Therefore, at the surroundings, why don’t we build a few flats first.”
This time, he really regarded Hong Dali as an intimate friend, really one of his own people. He considered everything for Hong Dali. “Think about it, we can prepare these flats over here first. Then, we can sell it after this land is slowly being developed. There will definitely be space for appreciation.”
“Yup.” Hong Dali nodded. “How much will building a living quarter need?”
“About.” Li Yuanshou did a simple calculation. “If the land is yours, then just the construction cost alone will not be a lot. 30 million will be enough to build quite a nice living quarter.”
“Oh, this is good!” Hong Dali directly nodded. “You can decide on how to do it yourself. I want the best, the highest grade! Choose the best golden spot, hire the best designer! If we want to build, we will have to build the highest-grade condominium! Things like broadband, optical cables, satellites, and whatnot, install everything that can be installed. Then, build a top-grade clinic that’s open 24 hours. It only has one feature, and that’s expensiveness—seeing the doctor there for just the flu will need to cost ten thousand or so! The surrounding neighbors must be driving sports cars that are at least half a million and above! If you drive a Jaban car there, you will be embarrassed to even say hi to your neighbors!”
“OK, good!” Li Yuanshou followed the principle of not minding how large the matter was and just viewed it as a spectator. He furiously nodded. “This idea is good!”
Tang Muxin was so angry that she wanted to kick him!
She hated people who added oil to the fire the most!
However, carefully imagining the things they said, it sounded quite cool!
At this time, Hong Dali asked again, “So according to you, what should we build there?”
“As for this…” Li Yuanshou looked at the map. “If we want to build a city, there are a lot of things related. At least, a new city will need to have a symbol. It can be a building, or it can also be a human. Basically, there must be a symbol.”
Once he mentioned a symbolic structure, everyone instantly looked at Hong Dali.
Was there even a need to ask? Who else other than this “Mascot of Tianjing City” could become the symbolic person of this city!?
