Judging by the business card, this Wen Xiangyong seems to be involved in the real estate business.
In recent years, as the country has started to strongly promote urban developnt, Zao City has been selected as a key city for construction, and its economy has grown rapidly, ranking among the top nationwide.
Among these, the real estate economy has made substantial contributions, as the rise of the property sector has also stimulated the developnt of many other industries.
However, Chicheng County’s geographical location is remote, and there are many mountainous areas, so in the eyes of these big shots, there hasn’t been much prospect for developnt; hence, it hasn’t developed and remains poor.
But Wen Xiangyong’s visit to a small county like Chicheng County as a real estate tycoon from Zao City ans that people are now starting to realize the value of Chicheng County, which is good news for the county.
"Good, I will definitely visit you when I have ti! Now, I won’t disturb your rest any longer. Farewell!"
As Wang Hao was about to reach the door, he felt sothing was off. Wen Xiangyong had all his valuable belongings stolen, so he definitely had no money on him.
So he gave Wen Xiangyong all the cash he had on him, amounting to a little over a thousand yuan.
"Young man, it’s our first eting, and you’re helping so generously. If there’s a chance in the future, I will definitely repay you!"
Wen Xiangyong didn’t hesitate to accept Wang Hao’s money, and after expressing his thanks, he escorted Wang Hao to the door.
After sending Wang Hao off and returning to his room, looking at the money in his hand, Wen Xiangyong couldn’t help but smile with the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
"Chicheng County really is a place full of hidden talents. At such a young age, not only does he run such a large hotel, but he’s also so unpretentious and acts with valor. It seems my trip here was not in vain!"
...
Early the next morning, Wang Hao went to the company and asked Xia Xue to bring one million in cash, which kept the local bank of the small county busy.
No one had ever withdrawn so much cash at once, and as the bank didn’t have enough, they had to urgently transfer it from the superior bank in the city.
"Here, take this fifty thousand. Don’t find it too little!"
Wang Hao slid fifty thousand yuan in cash across to He Yifan.
"So much?"
Seeing the neat stack of fifty thousand yuan on the table, He Yifan’s expression changed instantly, and he looked at Wang Hao nervously.
"Boss Wang, is there sothing I didn’t do well? I can change. Please don’t fire !"
"I didn’t say I was going to fire you! This is the bonus from the sale of traditional Chinese dicine yesterday. Every mber of the company gets one. Take good care of it!"
Wang Hao said with a broad smile on his face.
He Yifan sighed with relief after hearing this.
"What about mine?"
Hearing about the bonus, Qi Shihan imdiately ca over, reaching out her hand to Wang Hao for her share.
"Slap!"
Wang Hao gently slapped Qi Shihan’s little hand, saying in all seriousness.
"Yours is for tuition fees!"
"But you should give so pocket money at least!"
Qi Shihan didn’t give up and continued to reach out her hand.
"I’ve given you my secondary card already. Don’t get too greedy now!"
Wang Hao glared at Qi Shihan firmly.
Qi Shihan stuck her tongue out at Wang Hao and then grabbed Su Lin and ran out; the two of them hopped joyfully into the adjacent mall.
"Brother Hao..."
Xia Xue called out but noticed that He Yifan was also there, and quickly corrected herself.
"Wang Hao, do you think we should buy a car for more convenience?"
Reminded by Xia Xue, a lightbulb went off in Wang Hao’s head, as he had been feeling lately that sothing was missing during his hectic travels.
Looking back, we really did need one more vehicle.
"Yes! I’ll leave this matter to you then, as I don’t have a driver’s license yet. Once bought, we can register it under your na."
Wang Hao packed the remaining money into a box in preparation to return to Chen Village, and before leaving, he specifically instructed Xia Xue.
"I’m heading back to the village and it might be a few days before I return. Call if there’s anything!"
Having said that, he picked up the box and walked out, but after a few steps, he turned back to Xia Xue and said,
"Feel free to call even if there’s nothing up, I’d welco a check-in anyti. Just don’t miss too much, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Xue’s face turned red as she glared at Wang Hao, but her heart felt as sweet as if she had tasted honey.
Ever since Wang Hao started transporting dicinal herbs out of Chen Village, the villagers suddenly found themselves with ti on their hands.
Having nothing better to do after breakfast, they all gathered at Su Zhenping’s place to chat.
Since Su Zhenping’s house was situated at the head of the village, closest to the back mountain, everyone would wait outside his house for news from Wang Hao when they had nothing else to do.
"Do you think Wang Hao will be able to sell all those dicinal herbs?"
So of the older villagers began to question.
"It’s hard to say. It’s off-season now, and there aren’t many buyers for those herbs. I’m afraid they’ll be hard to sell even at a reduced price!"
One of the villagers said, shaking their head.
Their concerns were not unwarranted because the season for harvesting dicinal herbs had passed, and most of the buyers had already left.
Moreover, Wang Hao hauled away five truckloads of dicinal herbs yesterday alone. Even if there were buyers, in the small Chicheng County, even if all the herbal shops combined forces, they wouldn’t be able to purchase one truckload.
Besides, they were all common varieties; they were likely to remain in the warehouse unsold.
At this ti, Village Chief Zhao Youquan was also among the villagers.
He had been arrested previously for damaging the public road, but after begging the Town Mayor to pull so strings for him, he was only lightly reprimanded and released.
No sooner had he been released than he began to be up to no good again.
Village Chief Zhao Youquan, upon hearing the villagers’ discussions, felt particularly happy inside. If Wang Hao couldn’t sell the dicinal herbs, it ant his greenhouse planting would have been for naught, and he wouldn’t be able to keep his promise to the villagers.
Then, with a little bit of exaggeration from him, Wang Hao’s image in the villagers’ eyes would definitely take a hit.
Those villagers who had rented land to Wang Hao were now in Su Zhenping’s courtyard, sorting through the dicinal herbs that hadn’t been taken away.
"Old Su, you’re the most knowledgeable about the dicinal herb market here in the village. Do you think Haozi will be able to sell all those herbs?"
Wang Hao’s father, Wang Dazhu, was also in Su Zhenping’s courtyard at that ti. Although his mobility was limited and he couldn’t offer much help, he was still very worried. Since he didn’t understand the business, he could only ask Su Zhenping for his opinion.
"This..."
Su Zhenping was packing the dicinal herbs and upon being asked by Wang Dazhu, his movents slowed and he paused before saying,
"It seems a bit far-fetched. Although the kid Wang Hao is sowhat capable, at this critical juncture, he can’t force people to buy herbs they don’t want."
Wang Dazhu’s face sank instantly upon hearing Su Zhenping’s words.
The other villagers who had rented their land to Wang Hao didn’t say anything, but secretly shook their heads.
In the past, they had all harvested such herbs in the back mountain to earn money to supplent their household inco, so they had a general understanding of the market for dicinal herbs. At this ti of the year, there were very few buyers willing to purchase such a large quantity of herbs.
In fact, not being able to sell the herbs wouldn’t be a big loss for them, since Wang Hao had already paid them the rent for the land. At most, they would miss out on a profit share.
But what they were most worried about was Wang Hao. If he couldn’t sell the herbs, he’d end up losing his entire investnt.
On the other hand, if Wang Hao truly couldn’t sell these dicinal herbs, they would have to reconsider whether to continue renting their land to him next year.
"Regretting it now?"
Right at that mont, a familiar voice ca from the entrance to Su Zhenping’s courtyard, and everyone turned to look. There was Village Chief Zhao Youquan, leaning on Su Zhenping’s courtyard gate, sneering with schadenfreude...
