Chapter 636 Good

The two returned to Er Yan's house. Yu Dawei chatted with his parents for a while before taking his son and aunt back to his aunt's house.

He had already discussed it with the old man. He would get the heating in the villa set up tomorrow, and then buy some basic furniture and household items. The old couple could move into the villa whenever they wanted.

Yu Dawei has been staying at Mulun River for five or six days. Although his cousin Dafu didn't say anything to him, another purpose of his trip was to bring his grandparents back to their hometown, so he couldn't delay his journey too much.

Yu Dawei planned to help Chen Qing and the others resolve their issues first, and then drive back home.

After dropping the child and his aunt off at home, he drove to find the two pregnant women. They were resting at a hotel. When he went in, they were looking at documents and chatting over tea.

"So what happened? The property acquisition failed?" Yu Dawei asked directly as he entered the house.

He took off his coat, hung it on the red lacquered wooden coat rack next to the door, turned around, walked to the bed, and lay down on it.

The physical exertion from repairing the car that day was immense, and even someone of his physique was starting to feel the strain.

"No, it's just that Fuxin Garden is much bigger than we imagined." Qi Dadu grinned, the size of which surprised them.

"That's not right. It's just two residential areas, Fuxin Jiayuan Phase 1 and Fuxin Jiayuan Phase 2." Yu Dawei had taken the two of them to see them before.

“It’s true that there are two residential areas, but there are many supporting buildings around them, including the commercial service area across the passageway and a small farmers’ market. However, none of these have been built yet. When we went there, we only saw two residential areas standing there.” Chen Qing handed the documents to Yu Dawei and said, “Also, what we saw was actually just Zone 1. Zone 2 is connected to the commercial service area.”

"This size is two to three times larger than we imagined, and you can probably guess the risks without me having to explain them," Chen Qing added.

Yu Dawei nodded, then lowered his head and carefully looked through the information about Fuxin Jiayuan.

It was at this time that Yu Dawei realized just how big this community was; it consisted of sixty-four buildings, with supporting commercial service areas outside the buildings.

Compared to Zone 2, the commercial facilities in Zone 1 are just small-scale operations; Zone 2 is where the real big moves are happening.

The second district has three rows of two- or three-story business districts, as well as a ground-floor commercial area connected to the entire residential complex. Its scale gives it the feel of a commercial city or residential community.

"So in this situation, what do you need me to do?" Yu Dawei knew that if the scale was too large, selling would definitely become a problem. There weren't many people here to begin with, and if the scale was made too big, it would just become an empty house.

“Here’s the thing, we’ve discussed it with your second uncle and we plan to only take the real estate in Zone 1. As for Zone 2, we’ll take the land, but we’ll have to redesign the construction later.” Chen Qing looked up at Yu Dawei. “I’m telling you this because your friend has already prepared the infrastructure materials for Zone 2.”

"Qi Dadu and I have thought about it. After all, you were the one who brought this together, so we need to make things clear to you. If you feel that your friend has been taken advantage of, we'll call it a day and head home. If Dawei has no problem with this, we'll talk to Zhao Shan again tomorrow." Chen Qing had already made things very clear, and this difficult problem was now left to Yu Dawei.

Although Dawei is very close to them, he must be clear about the distinctions in such matters.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly insignificant pile of building materials on the open ground; when you really calculate it, it's not a small amount.

Chen Qing and Qi Dadu went to the site again today. It was clear that the other party wanted to finish Zone 1 and then immediately move on to Zone 2. Unfortunately, due to a lack of money, they couldn't hire equipment and people, so the completion of Zone 1 became a problem.

Chen Qing called Yu Dawei over to explain this matter because they planned to take over District 1 tomorrow, which was actually a way of extorting money from him.

It can also be understood as getting a bargain.

Now, there is no shortage of building materials in the area, and the houses are only missing the roof. All they need to do is hire equipment and people, and then build up the environment in the community before they can be sold and occupied.

Given the current number of empty houses, they won't lose money no matter what they do; they might even make a fortune.

"Don't you want the building materials for Zone Two?" Yu Dawei asked the two men.

"No, firstly, we checked the data and the building materials for Zone 1 are sufficient for the roof. Secondly, we don't know what will be built in Zone 2 or when it will be built, so leaving the building materials there will only cause them to weather and is meaningless." Qi Dadu replied to Yu Dawei seriously, it's better to be clear about these things.

“Hmm…” Yu Dawei handed the documents back to Chen Qing and shook his head. “I know Zhao Shan too well. He gives the impression of being particularly cowardly, but deep down he is very principled. He would rather die than let others have an easy time. That’s just the kind of person he is.”

Yu Dawei understood the meaning behind Chen Qing's words: he was being extorted.

The two of them probably wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kick someone when they're down and make a huge profit. He could understand that, being a businessman, they were just trying to make a quick buck.

However, Yu Dawei also needs to balance the relationship between the two sides and not let the talks fall apart tomorrow. First of all, he took the initiative to act as a matchmaker for his sister.

Rather than for the benefit of Zhao Shan, or for the benefit of Chen Qing and Qi Dadu.

Chen Qing raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. This kid clearly said that his relationship with that classmate was just so-so, but seeing that the other party was being taken advantage of, he immediately became upset.

"Brother Chen, Brother Qi, don't overthink it. I'm just trying to get this deal done, I'm not taking sides." Yu Dawei noticed the other meaning in Chen Qing's eyes and took the initiative to explain.

Then he picked up the engineering drawings in the documents again and gestured with his hand: "You can have this area of ​​Zone 1 in your hands, and at an extremely low price, absolutely no problem. In fact, Zhao Shan should thank you for taking over Zone 1."

“But the second district won’t do. We can’t lower the price any further, or that kid will definitely turn against you.” Yu Dawei said with great certainty.

“That makes things a bit tricky.” Chen Qing rested his chin on his right hand and pondered for a moment. “We have to proceed according to the actual situation and can’t do something that will lose us money.”

“I understand, so I’ve come up with two solutions. Would you two like to hear them?” Yu Dawei said with a smile to the two of them.

"Tell me about it," Qi Dadudu said, stroking his round belly.

He knew that Chen Qing's summoning of Yu Dawei today would put Yu Dawei in a very difficult position, so he intentionally gave Yu Dawei a way out. At least it wouldn't be worth it to end up having a falling out with them and his second uncle over this matter.

"It's very simple. One way is to acquire the remaining building materials at a low price while acquiring the second district," Yu Dawei explained. "We're in the construction business every day anyway. As long as the building materials are fine, they can be put to good use after being acquired at a low price, and it can also save the group a lot of capital."

"What about the second option?" Chen Qing asked again. "The second option is to bring Zhao Shan under your command and have him take charge of the market in Hohhot. Although this kid does have some personality issues, he definitely has the ability. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to build two fairly large residential communities on his own."

The two communities Yu Dawei mentioned are this one that hasn't been topped out yet, and the other is the Olympic District on the mountain.

The area is also quite large, with four zones, each containing more than a hundred buildings. Zone 3 is a mixed residential area consisting of villas and six-plus-one housing units.

“Okay, we’ll try the two options you mentioned, but we need to work out the second one.” Chen Qing thought for a moment. “We might choose to cooperate with Zhao Shan to complete the development, but if we do that, we’ll only acquire the land in Zone 2, and we’ll take all of Zone 1.”

In other words, in Chen Qing's eyes, Zhao Shan was actually a burden.

And the look in his eyes as he looked at Yu Dawei at that moment was also full of this meaning.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter. I only have one goal: to take over District 1 and build it up. My sister is waiting to move in." Yu Dawei knew Chen Qing quite well; he was the kind of person who wouldn't act until he saw a clear benefit.

It's already quite good that you were able to have a back-and-forth conversation just now.

At least these two conditions, once presented, won't drive that traitor to desperate measures.

He vaguely remembered that once during a self-study period, the two classmates in front of him kissed each other while covered by their clothes. It was no secret that the couple was doing *that* in class.

Everyone else seemed indifferent, but Zhao Shan was different. Perhaps it was because they were right in front of him, but after he told them several times, the two of them remained unmoved. So the next day, the couple received a big poster at their door.

My parents were called in during recess.

Of course, he got a lot of mixed doubles beatings from that couple afterward, but he did this kind of thing a lot during his three years of high school, where he hurt himself a thousand times while hurting the enemy eight hundred.

This person is definitely not the kind of person who always looks at things from the perspective of self-interest.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have emptied their savings to build everything in Fuxin Garden just for the sake of so-called face and honor.

"Dawei, when are you going back? How about we go together?" Qi Dadu felt that the serious matters had been discussed enough, so he changed the subject, stood up from his seat, and lay down on another of his beds.

"Let's do it tomorrow or the day after. I have other things to do here, and I can't wait for the two of you. If you can be honest with each other tomorrow, signing the contract and going through the formalities will take at least ten days to half a month. I can't afford to wait that long." Yu Dawei got up from the bed, walked to the door, and put on his clothes.

"I know, it's to pick up my eldest sister and brother-in-law. Those two really dote on their daughter. They even stayed in the remote mountains for two years, which made my third brother feel embarrassed to travel so far to see her." Qi Daduzi complained, indicating that his third brother was quite unusual.

"My third uncle has a bit of an arrogant streak in his personality," Yu Dawei commented, using a term specific to later generations.

"Aren't you going to stay a little longer?" Chen Qing asked, sipping his tea.

"I can't stay any longer, I have to meet with two classmates to talk to them about something." Yu Dawei put on his long black down jacket and headed out. Just as he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, reached into his pocket, and tossed two keys to Qi Dadu.

"What is this?" Qi Dadu got up and quickly reached out his hands to catch it, only to find out when he looked down that it was a key.

He was a little confused as to why Yu Dawei suddenly gave him two keys.

"I bought a villa here, fully furnished, but it's missing some furniture and appliances. When you two have time, help me get them. Just tell me how much it costs, and I'll transfer the money to you." Yu Dawei was worried that too many things here would delay his trip back, so he thought he could ask Qi Dadu to help him with one of the tasks.

After all, Qi Dadu was very familiar with this kind of thing, and the villa community wasn't too far from Fuxin Jiayuan.

"You little rascal, always causing us trouble." Qi Daduzi was about to refuse, but then his eyes lit up. "Once that's all settled, can we stay for a couple of days?"

"Of course, giving you the keys also means the same thing. It's Building 9 in Jinxiu Jiayuan. You can give the keys to my parents when you leave." Yu Dawei knew that his grandfather and mother wouldn't be living in the villa anytime soon.

One has to take care of the children, and the other has to work.

Yu Dawei still needs to think about his father's job.

"By the way, Dawei, is there anything else you want to say to Zhao Shan after you leave?" Chen Qing could tell that Yu Dawei and Zhao Shan might not be on the same side, but they were classmates and he didn't dislike her deep down.

So he wanted to see if Yu Dawei had anything he could convey. He could sense that the two of them, who didn't get along, would never express their gratitude to each other in person.

"Well..." Yu Dawei stood at the door for a moment, then sighed deeply. "Oh well, we're all old classmates, and we're all adults. We have to be responsible for our actions."

"Just let him be."

As he spoke, Yu Dawei had already walked out of the house.

After going downstairs, he drove towards Ai Yongqiang's house.

When I arrived at Ai Yongqiang's house, I saw his parents watching TV. I greeted them and went straight to Ai Yongqiang's room in the second bedroom.

"Oh, busy man, you've made up your mind. We thought you weren't coming. Meng Kai was about to go home." Ai Yongqiang saw Yu Dawei move a space on the bed for him.

"Hehe, you two always call me, and I've never missed a call." Yu Dawei didn't stand on ceremony, taking off his coat and sitting on the bed. "So, what did you two come up with today? Where's the plan? Can I take a look?"

Sitting at his desk, Meng Kai was fiddling with his laptop. He then opened a Word document and handed the computer to Yu Dawei: "We've done a simple tidying up, but it's just a framework. We still need to polish the details."

“For overseas markets, agents are very important. After all, we’re only helping you with this part-time, so you need to be prepared that the revenue generated by California and Australia might not be as good as that from island nations,” Meng Kai said sincerely.
