Chapter 851: Chapter 850: Ya Qiao Appears!
Even though it was a video conference, Lu Mian did not show his face unilaterally.
But the five big bosses on the other end didn’t dare to have any opinion about it, they even thought it was quite normal.
After all, the person they were directly communicating with was the legendary Mr. Ya Qiao!
It was said that Mr. Ya Qiao was like a dragon that hid his form but never revealed his tail; no one knew his true identity, and nobody had ever seen what he looked like.
Before this acquisition of Hengzhong Real Estate, Mr. Ya Qiao was a legend in the stock market, known only through word of mouth and his movents on the stock market index.
Just when everyone thought he would remain a mystery forever, Mr. Ya Qiao made his first acquisition of physical assets.
That was the Hengzhong Real Estate in the Jinjing Central Business District.
Many shrewd businessn imdiately followed in his footsteps and bought up related real estate around the vicinity, all waiting to see Mr. Ya Qiao’s next move.
After a long wait, all they got was this video conference.
Yes, they were the quick-acting bosses who had bought up properties surrounding Hengzhong Real Estate.
No matter what, Mr. Ya Qiao’s reputation preceded him. Though these five bosses had been in the business circle for many years and were slick operators, facing such a legendary figure, they couldn’t help but feel nervous and restrained.
File sent successfully.
The five bosses received the acquisition docunts and examined them closely, their expressions becoming more and more serious.
Especially when they saw the amount of the acquisition, their eyes nearly popped out.
It was definitely a purchase price that nobody could refuse.
“Mr. Ya Qiao, forgive my boldness, but you wouldn’t be from Jinjing, would you?”
Lu Mian typed a “?” in response.
“The central business district is indeed a very good comrcial area, but after so many years of developnt in Jinjing, the resources that should have been developed have been exploited already, and the potential is not that significant…”
One of the bosses said very tactfully.
“Acquiring our properties at five tis the price doesn’t seem very cost-effective.”
To these bosses, Mr. Ya Qiao’s actions did not fit his previous investnt style. Buying low and selling high was his signature move, but now he was offering such a price that it was hard for them to believe.
They even suspected whether Mr. Ya Qiao was planning so grand sche, they were greedy for the acquisition funds, but in private they speculated whether there was greater comrcial value in the place that made it so valued by Mr. Ya Qiao?
Seeing them seemingly disagree, Lu Mian didn’t waste any words, typed up sothing quickly, and resent an updated acquisition docunt to all five of them.
Upon reviewing it again, the five bosses saw that the purchase amount had been directly changed to ten tis the original offer!
This…
“Mr. Ya Qiao, may I ask what exactly are you aiming for?”
Lu Mian, supporting her chin with one hand, twisted a lock of hair around her ear with the other in a casual, lazy manner.
Just for fun.
That’s all.
In the end, the five bosses agreed to the acquisition plan. However, not at ten tis the price, but at twice the price.
It wasn’t because they were kind-hearted, but rather because of the business acun unique to them as entrepreneurs.
They understood very well that a valuable network of contacts could be worth much more than a single deal. Having just bought the property less than a month ago and already doubling their investnt, they were already making a fortune, so how could they dare to ask for ten tis the money?
Wasn’t it favorable for them to forge a relationship with Mr. Ya Qiao?
In the end, Lu Mian spent much less money than expected to buy the entire Jinjing Central Business District, which made her quite happy.
When she got the contract, she also resolved a concern.
She wasn’t interested in buying real estate or buildings; it was mainly because Director Qi liked it.
Whatever Director Qi wanted, she would just help him get it.
“Please keep this a secret for ,” Lu Mian sent this as her final ssage.
The bosses all agreed promptly, bowing out of the video conference respectfully.
When only the five of them were left, their faces showed varying degrees of seriousness and concern.
“It seems Jinjing is in for a change.”
“Mr. Ya Qiao’s acquisition, it’s absolutely a ga-changing move!”
“Fortunately, we now have a bit of a connection with Mr. Ya Qiao; perhaps we can bask in his light in the future…”
The five looked at each other, worried about the future but also sowhat relieved.
——
After dealing with the real estate acquisition, Lu Mian left the office. Coming down in the elevator from the side wing, she made a half circle into MM Ji Restaurant.
The new store’s premises were much larger than in Wucheng, with every aspect, from location to decor, ticulously arranged.
Lu Mian strolled leisurely into the store as if taking a walk.
“I’m sorry, we are not officially open yet, please co back another day!”
Seeing Lu Mian enter, soone from the store reminded her amidst their busyness; Lu Mian heard but did not stop, continuing to walk inside.
The waiter paused, put down what he was doing, and hurried over.
“Miss, I’m sorry, but we aren’t open for business yet, you can’t co in.”
Lu Mian smiled slightly, “I’m just looking.”
She surveyed the interior design and the equipnt, paying particular attention to the hygiene of the semi-open kitchen. After inspecting everything, she was quite satisfied, her calm features showing a hint of approval.
The waiter furrowed his brows, suspecting that this person had co to steal their store’s design ideas, otherwise why would she look so carefully?
Moreover, this girl looked like a student, and her attire seed quite ordinary; he doubted she had the ans to afford their services.
Pondering over the matter, just as he was about to scold Lu Mian with a cold face, a hurried figure appeared from the staircase on the second floor.
“Mr. Dongyang, there is a miss here…” The waiter saw a savior and imdiately reported to Mr. Dongyang.
Mr. Dongyang didn’t even look at him, he just waved his hand: “You go on with your work.”
The waiter, puzzled, nodded and went back to his duties. When he glanced back, he noticed that Mr. Dongyang’s attitude towards Lu Mian was utterly respectful.
Mr. Dongyang ca up to Lu Mian, greeting her warmly: “Boss, what brings you here?”
Mr. Dongyang was originally stationed by Yu to watch over Lu Mian, to ensure her safety. But since Lu Mian seldom had any use for him, Yu had to recall Mr. Dongyang back and, with the new store opening keeping him busy, asked him to keep a close eye on things.
“I ca to check on the progress.”
“Then allow to show you around.” Mr. Dongyang led Lu Mian upstairs, patiently reporting on the progress, “We’re at the final stage now. Let the restaurant air out a bit, do a brief promotion, and we should be able to officially open in about a month.”
“There’s no rush, just focus on quality.”
“Of course, boss, you can rest assured when it cos to food safety and environntal safety.”
Downstairs, the waiter looked curiously towards the staircase, wondering how Mr. Dongyang could be so polite to that lady.
