Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife Chapter 1927 - 1929: The Gold Rush Begins
Previously on Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife...
There really is something magical about the magnetic connection between people. Whether they’re in tune with each other or not, spending time together or working together will reveal if their values align.
Cheng Su felt like she had a perfect magnetic connection with Zhan Qin. At least, their viewpoints on business were aligned. When everyone agrees, making decisions becomes pretty easy.
"I only have a few days left of my vacation. This past half-year, I’ve almost finished my studies over in Qing City. I’ll really move to Guangcheng once I find the time. For now, you’ll have to manage on your own. Does it feel too overwhelming to handle all by yourself? Should we find a couple more people to help you?" Cheng Su asked Zhan Qin.
Zhan Qin replied, "Handling everything on my own is definitely spreading myself too thin. We’ll need more hands. As for forming a team... let’s first get your personal business registered and set up an assistant group. I’ll handle hiring, how about that?"
"Works for me. I trust your judgment." Cheng Su smiled.
"Aren’t you worried I’ll recruit people close to me and deceive you together?" Zhan Qin raised an eyebrow.
"Would you do that? If you have the skills for that, then go ahead and deceive me." Cheng Su said, "Alright, stop testing me. I’ve mentioned before, since the old man trusts you, I trust you too. And frankly, although you’re my assistant, you’re actually my partner as well. The benefits are yours to enjoy if you can turn around the business under my name."
"You’ve got a big heart!" Zhan Qin refilled the tea for both of them and said, "Back to business, shall we sell this piece of land for start-up funds? If we want to buy another piece, do you have one in mind?"
Cheng Su stood up, walked over to the map of Guangcheng, and folded her arms, gazing at it.
She lightly bit her finger, her mind working quickly. Many financial groups are already mobilizing, and the competition is becoming fierce. Not to mention the local groups, even foreign investment is heating up. Guangcheng, including the surrounding markets, is a very appealing large piece of cake.
Faced with so many strong competitors, her small company could not compete directly. But her advantage was knowing which areas could develop quickly and where her company had the conditions to secure opportunities.
"What do you think of this?" Cheng Su took a pen and circled a spot on the map.
Zhan Qin stepped forward to take a look. "Isn’t this farmland?"
Cheng Su nodded, "The city center is already reaching saturation. With our capital, we can’t participate there. It’s better to be more open-minded. Although this is farmland, look, if we acquire such a large piece, we could develop it into a big residential area in no time once it flips." Many big buildings are already popping up now.
"Buying land isn’t as easy now; I’m worried the government might interfere..." Zhan Qin hesitated.
"That’s why we have to act fast; soon, we won’t be able to buy and sell freely. From what I know, this piece hasn’t been planned out yet. We should communicate with everyone to secure it, even if it means paying a higher price." Cheng Su said, "If the municipality takes an interest and holds a bidding, we probably won’t stand a chance."
Zhan Qin nodded, "So should we first register the company?"
Cheng Su said, "Yes, let’s prepare the documents these next couple of days and get that registration done, then we’ll discuss this land. Also, let’s spread the word that we’re putting up our piece for sale!"
Registering the company isn’t hard as long as you have someone backing you and some capital yourself. The real challenge is the start-up and the ongoing stable development afterwards.
However, as long as you keep your wits about you, in this era of hard work, can they really not strike gold?
Cheng Su looked at that piece of land, her lips curling into a high smile.
