Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 319 Another project worth four billion.

Jiang Beicheng just brought Liu Yifei here for a hot pot meal to satisfy her cravings. Lao Zeng probably thought he was dating Liu Yifei and wanted to woo her.

It gave him a lot of face.

Sending expensive red wine and flattering the Jiang family were all aimed at showing Liu Yifei the Jiang family's power.

If you want to date a celebrity, you definitely need to have some real talent to back you up.

Jiang Beicheng wanted to laugh.

Old Zeng's assist today was completely unnecessary.

However, it did leave a deep impression on Liu Yifei.

The driver of the Jiang family in Beicheng is now worth over 100 million yuan. This represents not only the Jiang family's strength, but also their magnanimity and even their kindness.

These qualities are all very valuable in Liu Yifei's eyes.

I'm increasingly convinced that finding this fertility partner was the right decision.

"Boss, Ms. Liu Yifei, I won't disturb your meal any longer." Zeng Wei finished flattering her and stood up to say goodbye.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Zeng," Liu Yifei said with a smile.

Zeng Wei smiled, waved, and left the private room.

Liu Yifei's gaze returned to Jiang Beicheng, and she wanted to laugh. "He's clearly just a little kid, but he always likes others to call him 'boss'."

Jiang Beicheng was not modest at all, "Don't even mention it, in the catering industry of Jiangnan City, everyone now recognizes me as the boss."

I specifically told them not to call them that in public, but they won't listen. What can I do?

"Hahaha, do you know how smug you are right now?" Liu Yifei couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Look at him, all serious and proper.

Jiang Beicheng wasn't actually pretending, but at his level, sometimes the truth he speaks can easily make others think he's faking it.

He then boasted to Liu Yifei, "The path of combining catering and cultural tourism in Jiangnan City was explored by me and my colleagues in the catering industry."

"The reputation of Jiangnan City's catering industry was built by me and my colleagues. Isn't it something to brag about?"

"Mmm!" Liu Yifei nodded with a smile.

Why are young people so competitive?
Give Jiang Beicheng a thumbs up: "Awesome, Beibei."

Jiang Beicheng joked, "I'll give you a slice of tripe."

"Okay, it's an honor to serve Boss Jiang."

"We can't call him Boss Jiang, it sounds like a triad gang."

"Hahahaha~"

Liu Yifei couldn't stop smiling.

I really enjoy spending time with Jiang Beicheng in private.

It was very easy and enjoyable, requiring no effort at all.

The two of them can easily create a lot of laughs over a simple hot pot meal.

After finishing their meal, the two went straight back to the hotel.

I'm hesitant to go out much, afraid of being recognized by paparazzi.

Going back to the hotel for tea and a chat would be nice.

As night fell, Jiang Beicheng prepared to take a shower and rest.

Liu Yifei said, "Not going home? Aren't you worried about your girlfriend checking up on you?"

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "I'm on a business trip."

Haitangxi took her studio team on a business trip to bid for a major project—the design tender for a high-speed rail station—and estimated they wouldn't be back for more than half a month.

The concubine is staying with her parents in her hometown, while the girl has gone back to Chengdu.

He feels like he's "single" right now.

"Want to come together?" Jiang Beichen walked into the bathroom and then poked his head out to ask Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei smiled as she sipped her tea, not answering Jiang Beicheng, but as soon as he started soaking his tea, she wrapped herself in a towel and ran into the bathroom.

Jiang Beicheng: "I'll give you a spa treatment in a bit."

"Do you know how to do this?"

There's an old saying: "If you've been to 300 foot massage parlors, you'll know how to get a massage even if you don't know how to go to a spa."

"Another fallacy."

The two were playing in the water.

Although it's a cooperative relationship for reproduction, Liu Yifei seems to be in love these past few days.

This feeling is normal; she's at peace with herself and just enjoys it.

……

The next morning, after breakfast.

Jiang Beicheng took the initiative to invite Liu Yifei: "Shall I take you to see our baby's new home?"

Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment. He couldn't possibly buy a new house right away, could he?

“I don’t think it’s necessary, Beibei. We already have enough properties, and this isn’t a good investment,” Liu Yifei analyzed from a realistic perspective.

If she gets pregnant, the child will be born, and regardless of whether they live in Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangnan City, or the United States, both of them will own property.

She never considered accepting the property offered as a gift from Jiangbei City.

"You'll only know if it's necessary after you see it," Jiang Beicheng said directly.

I drove her to her hometown.

Stop the car and show her around.

"The basic structure has been completed, and the residential area is currently under renovation. It should be completed by the end of the year."

Liu Yifei was shocked and asked curiously, "How big is this manor?"

Jiangbei City: "Nearly one hundred acres."

When Jiang Tao was there, he fenced off fifty or sixty acres. When construction started last year, Jiangbei City wanted to build a horse farm for itself, so he fenced off several dozen acres more.

“If this were in Shanghai or Beijing, I can’t imagine how much it would cost,” Liu Yifei said in surprise.

Land prices in Jiangnan City are certainly not comparable to those in Beijing and Shanghai.

Moreover, the price of rural land transfer in the suburbs of Jiangnan City is cheaper.

If this private estate were built in Beijing or Shanghai, the cost would be twice as high.

Liu Yifei asked, "How large is the residential area?"

Jiangbei City: "The main building has 2700 square meters of interior space, while the other buildings each have only three or four hundred square meters."

He jokingly said, "Welcome to Jiangnan City for postpartum care."

Liu Yifei smiled. The material conditions provided by Jiangbei City were indeed excellent.

"Remember to invite me to your housewarming celebration; I'd like to see what it looks like when it's finished."

"Okay, this is a children's playground, so your baby can experience Disneyland at home. This is a helipad; the helicopter has already been booked, and I can teach your baby to fly a plane later..."

As Jiang Beicheng introduced the situation, Liu Yifei smiled.

Oh dear, this man is really responsible.

Liu Yifei suddenly had a strong feeling that Jiang Beicheng really wanted to give her a home.

I find the Jiangbei city in front of me quite adorable.

She actually hoped that she was pregnant this time.

……

Liu Yifei spent two happy days in Jiangnan City before flying to Beijing.

When it was time to leave, I was a little reluctant to go.

This is normal for adults; she's used to it.

My adrift heart has now found a foothold, and I have gained a deeper understanding of life.

Work is no longer the main battlefield for the second half of her life.

That morning, Jiang Beicheng and Shen Jun went to the Jiangnan City Helicopter Trading Center to sign a helicopter purchase contract.

Last time, I only paid a deposit of 50.

After Agusta provided Jiang Beicheng with a customized plan according to his requirements, Jiang Beicheng still needed to pay a 30% deposit before the manufacturer would begin production.

After signing the agency contract, Jiang Beicheng paid a deposit of nearly 40 million yuan.

"Mr. Jiang, I have good news for you. We've secured an early production order for you, and delivery will be completed no later than February next year," the general manager of the helicopter trading center reported to Jiang Beicheng.

Jiang Beicheng nodded: "Report any new developments to Secretary Shen at any time."

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, take care." The general manager stepped forward and opened the car door.

On the way back, Shen Jun reported to Jiang Beicheng, "President Jiang, Rongguang Industrial Investment Co., Ltd. has been registered as you instructed."

Jiang Beicheng: "We need to expedite the personnel and bidding process so that construction can begin by the end of this year."

Rongguang Industrial Investment Co., Ltd. was established by Jiangbei City to build that special industrial park.

We had already reached an agreement with the district government on that 300-mu industrial land.

The district government is currently offering 300,000 yuan per mu for a 50-year property right.

The transfer price of industrial land is much lower than that of commercial and residential land.

Local governments value the industrial park's output and tax revenue more than the land transfer fees.

A price of 30 is already considered high, because that piece of land is adjacent to a national-level new area, and has a very good location advantage.

They can benefit from the industrial spillover effects of the national-level new area.

Jiangbei City decided to take over the land directly to build a special industrial park.

The total price of the more than 300 acres of land is over 9000 million yuan.

Once the personnel work at Rongguang Industrial Investment Co., Ltd. was completed, they immediately began working on the construction of the industrial park.

After going through the design bidding process and finding two companies to participate, Jiangbei City will still give the design and planning to Xishan Xingju. It's all about the family, so the main house can make more money.

Of course, the strength of the first wife's family is beyond doubt.

The construction bidding process was handled by Rongguang's management.

The estimated cost of this industrial park is between 40 and 50 billion yuan.

This specialized industrial park is positioned as a high-tech and cultural industry park, and its construction cost is several times higher than that of a typical factory.

After Rong Guanghe and the district government complete the procedures, Jiangbei City will attend the signing ceremony and groundbreaking ceremony.

……

"Mr. Jiang, do you have a moment?"

That morning, Jiang Beicheng received a call from Wu Wen, who sounded very excited.

"I guess there's good news to tell me."

"I must tell you this to your face."

"company?"

"Ok!"

Jiang Beicheng drove directly to Wu Wen's studio.

Wu Wen was waiting for him in the office.

The first thing he said to me upon seeing me wasn't sharing the good news from the phone call, but rather reaching out for money, "Mr. Jiang won't go back on his word, will he?"

Jiang Beicheng took the data from his hand and glanced at it.

The July issue of "Shangcheng" magazine sold over 34 copies in 24 hours, generating a total sales revenue of over 1350 million yuan.

It ranked third on the list of best-selling print magazines by celebrities.

This also set a new personal magazine sales record for Liu Yifei.

She became the second best-selling female celebrity in the Chinese entertainment industry.

The top-ranked actress is Yu Shuxin, born in the 90s, who sold over 1400 million copies.

The top-ranked artist is Wang Yibo, who bought nearly 900,000 copies of Men's Fashion in April 2020, with total sales exceeding 25 million yuan.

With her "Dong Village Grand Song" theme in "Shangcheng" magazine, Liu Yifei became the top-selling actress among the post-85 generation of actresses, far ahead of other post-85 actresses, and is one of the top female artists in the entire Chinese entertainment industry.

Wu Wen said, "Actually, it has far exceeded my overdue amount. My previous goal was five million."

Unfortunately, they did not meet the standards set by Mr. Shen of Nanfeng Venture Capital.

Jiang Beicheng said, "I'll communicate with President Shen."

Fashion and content are both indispensable. Remember what I told you at the beginning: it's better to lose money in the short term than to lose social value.

Wu Wen nodded excitedly.

With President Jiang's help, the $500 million in funding for Nanfeng Venture Capital is practically guaranteed.

"President Jiang, there's one more thing I'd like to ask for your opinion on," Wu Wen said. "After Liu Yifei's issue sold out, we've received a lot of offers from celebrities and artists, especially for the September and October issues."

One of the actresses born in 85 is actively communicating with us, wanting to be the cover star for September.

The price was so low that I almost couldn't refuse.

Jiang Beicheng: "Who?"

Wu Wen: "Yang Mi".
