I am farming in the real world.

Chapter 148: Working Meal Worth 56 Billion (Subscription Request)
With the leader's nod, and Chen Jue paying real money to buy the land, he did not engage in pre-sale of commercial real estate projects to recover funds, which confirmed the concept of "houses are for living, not for speculation".

This made the land transaction between Chen Jue and Vancouver Urban Investment Corporation go particularly smoothly.

As Chen Jue circled and dotted his way through the list, he acquired a total of five residential plots and two commercial plots in Louqiao, Ouhai District, Vancouver, at an average price of 8600 yuan per square meter.

The residential land area exceeds 50 square meters, which is enough to build five medium-sized comfortable communities, each of which is more than enough to accommodate 5 households.

Even if the companies under Chen Jue's name form a group in the future and the number of employees increases, it will be enough to be distributed for a long time.

As for the remaining two smaller commercial plots that meet the standards for super-high-rise building construction, Chen Jue planned to use them to build the group headquarters and a high-tech vegetable factory for external display.

"Mr. Chen, I roughly calculated the price of the seven plots of land you want, and it may be around 7 billion. There will be land value-added tax, stamp duty, and deed tax later..."

Seeing that Chen Jue, a small boss, was so generous, Wang Kaichun, the director of the Natural Resources and Planning Bureau, also let go of his airs and took out his mobile phone calculator without hesitation and pressed the numbers again and again.

In the end, the computer showed a total land purchase price of 56 billion yuan.

After seeing this astonishing price, Chen Jue's face twitched a few times. He estimated in his mind how many ships of soybeans he would have to sell to make back the money.

After all, he had made a budget in his mind before coming and planned to spend about 10 billion yuan to acquire the land.

This time it exceeded 5 times, which was really beyond his expectations.

"Chen Jue, is this price difficult for you? If you have financial pressure, I can help you contact several major banks to share the credit?" Secretary Lin said when he saw this.

When Chen Jue heard that the city was not only offering him a discount but also offering him a loan to support him when he bought the land, he immediately realized that this was probably the real and substantial reward!

However, he had been hurt by loans before, so he waved his hand and declined Secretary Lin's proposal: "No need for a loan. I should be able to find partners to pool the 56 billion yuan, but the payment time may be delayed a little."

"All cash? No loans?"

"Need not!"

When the bold statement of paying out of pocket was made, Wang Kaichun and Secretary Lin were both stunned.

Compared with these greedy real estate developers, Chen Jue's behavior of paying out of his own pocket to build residential communities and dormitories for his employees definitely makes him a super kind-hearted person among entrepreneurs and start-ups!
Even those large companies on the Internet that boast about making money with their brothers and providing housing to each employee are rarely able to actually implement this plan.

As a result, even the mayor of Vancouver, who had not expressed his opinion, praised Chen Jue after hearing his decision: "Mr. Chen, do a good job! The development of Vancouver requires young talents like you to work hard and strive!"

"Okay, Mayor, I will continue to work hard." Chen Jue smiled on his face but kept muttering in his heart.

Can't you praise yourself?

You should know that land transfer fees are counted into the local government's "non-tax fiscal revenue", which is extra income outside of fiscal revenue and is generally used to fill deficits and for emergencies.

Since Vancouver developed early, most of the land that needed to be sold was sold in the early 21st century, and its non-tax revenue for the whole of last year was only more than 150 billion yuan.

Chen Jue placed a huge order of 56 billion yuan, which accounted for one-third of the city's non-tax revenue last year.

Not only did it ease the debt pressure of municipal investment companies, it also caused the extra expenditure budget of each unit to surge, allowing them to have a prosperous year that had never been seen before.

With such a great political achievement being delivered right before our eyes, it would not be an exaggeration to praise this young man Chen Jue to the sky!

So much so that before leaving, the mayor looked at Chen Jue with more and more favor.

...Now that the intention to acquire the land has been finalized, all that remains is to sign a specific contract with the Vancouver Urban Development and Investment Corporation and the Department of Natural Resources and Planning.

Chen Jue didn't have to worry about this and handed the task over to the legal department under him to follow up and handle.

The only problem is that he doesn't have that much money on hand at the moment.

"One hundred million!"

"The income from selling soybeans is too slow. I have to hurry up and dispose of the wood from the Far East in batches." Chen Jue muttered to himself and had a clear idea of ​​the next money-making plan.

During the lunch break, I accompanied the mayor, Secretary Lin and other leaders to the city government cafeteria for a very delicious working meal.

Having invested 56 billion yuan in this, Chen Jue felt much more relaxed now. He shamelessly sat at the same table with the leaders for dinner.

When the directors, directors, and deputy mayors at the table learned that he had voluntarily paid out 56 billion yuan to invest in his hometown in the morning, they all nodded and smiled at him.

In a word, he has basically overcome all the biggest obstacles in Vancouver with his money ability!
Of course, in order to satisfy his vanity, Chen Jue took out his mobile phone and took pictures of the three dishes and one soup in the city government canteen.

He went on Weibo and posted a picture with location information, and added a very Versailles title: "This meal cost me 56 billion yuan, I'm so happy! (smile)" and posted it.

If it hadn't gone viral on the Internet before, his post would have definitely fallen into oblivion.

But it’s different now, as a newly-crowned internet celebrity with millions of fans, as soon as Chen Jue posted this dynamic picture, the number of likes and comments below began to rise crazily.

Especially those stupid netizens who didn't know what was so impressive, after seeing the exploding figure of 56 billion, they all started to speculate.

"What the hell? A meal costs 56 billion? Zimbabwean dollars? (Black question mark)"

"Red-braised pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, pan-fried hairtail, and a bowl of tofu and cabbage soup. This is the most proper lunch box in the cafeteria! How can it be so expensive? (Stunned)"

"Look at the positioning, ladies! Mr. Jue must be going to discuss a big project. (Worship)"

"Then will the people at this table all be... (a bolt from the blue)"

"They say it's not important what rich people eat, but who they eat with. Today I've learned a lot! (Tactical retreat)"

Not only netizens and fans were excited.

Even Zheng Bocheng, who was following Chen Jue's updates, immediately @ed him in the WeChat group.

Zheng Bocheng: "No, brother! You are so successful! My father has been running a factory for decades, but he still doesn't have the right to eat in the city cafeteria. At most, he has eaten in the county."

Chen Jue: "My biological father is useless, my adoptive father will bring you guys here for a meal next time (smirk)"

Guo Sen: “That’s too much! (laughing and crying)”

Li Te: "I really want to improve (Godfather, please accept my child's greeting)"

Zheng Bocheng: “…”
