Just as Xu Banxia was due to give birth, Su Mingzhe finally left the gentle hometown of Shen Mo and Xie Jinbao and returned to Binhai.
As soon as he entered the house, Su Mingzhe found that a rare guest came to his house, and he quickly greeted him with a smile:
"Dad, he's here. Wife, dad's here, why didn't you say anything to me?"
For the Su family, Xu Youren is really a rare guest.
Xu Banxia bought several townhouses and invited Chen Yuyu and Xu Youren to move in and be neighbors, but they refused to come.
On weekdays, at the end of the month, Xu Banxia would go to the Xu family to deliver living expenses. It was also when Xu Banxia gave birth to his first two children that Xu Youren brought his wife and children over to say hello.
Now that Su Mingzhe saw Xu Youren appearing at his home, it really felt a bit strange.
"I just came here, too."
Seeing Su Mingzhe come back, Xu Youren's originally relaxed sitting posture immediately became cautious.
After Xu Banxia graduated, he would send living expenses to Xu Youren at the end of every month. With the support of money, Xu Youren's resentment towards Xu Banxia for "killing" his first wife had almost disappeared.
Xu Banxia is now more than nine months pregnant and is approaching her due date. It is very inconvenient to move around. She did not go to send living expenses to Xu Youren. Xu Youren, at the urging of his wife Liu Meilan, had to come and get it himself.
It sounds funny, but Xu Youren and his wife Liu Meilan are such people, very thick-skinned for money.
"Dad, please sit down for a moment while I go upstairs to change clothes."
Su Mingzhe also guessed that his sudden return would disturb Xu Youren, so he found an excuse to go upstairs.
Seeing Su Mingzhe go upstairs, Xu Youren quickly explained the matter of asking for money:
"Ban Xia, your sister will go to junior high school soon. The junior high school tuition and living expenses in this bilingual school are much higher than when she was in elementary school. Do you think you can give me more for this living expenses?"
Xu Qianqian went to elementary school in 1992, and this year she is in the first grade of junior high school in 1997.
Although elementary school and junior high school are both in the same school, their lifestyles are different.
The elementary school pays a unified living fee, and the dining standards for all students are also the same.
When they arrived at the junior high school, the school issued a campus card to every student.
After students have a campus card, they need to pay their living expenses to the school. Then, they can check in and eat by themselves. They can eat whatever they want, and there will no longer be a teacher to control it.
With autonomy, the students' expenses suddenly doubled several times.
Because his daughter Su Nannan is about to enter elementary school, Xu Banxia also learned about the fees charged by some schools.
For example, the bilingual primary school charges a uniform monthly living allowance of about 100 yuan.
However, in the junior high school, the average monthly expenses for students in bilingual schools is three to five hundred yuan, and even worse, it can reach seven or eight hundred yuan.
Xu Banxia didn't know much about what the students in the junior high school ate, but since her father said this, she would not deny him face, so she asked directly:
"Dad, how much do you want now?"
"Um... Banxia, the living allowance you gave me before was 10,000 yuan a month. You see you are not short of money. How about giving me 20,000 yuan in the future?"
Xu Youren was careful and quoted a price that he thought was high.
After Xu Banxia heard this, he asked his nanny to get his Kunbao.
After opening the Kun bag, Xu Banxia didn't count the details. He took out a thick piece of dough from the bag and handed it over, and then said:
"Dad, please take the money first. Besides, my due date is these days. When the baby is born, don't forget to bring Qianqian over."
"Hey, hey, don't worry, daughter, dad will never forget it and will definitely bring your sister over!"
If you don’t have money, you can marry Banxia, but if you have money, you can have a good daughter.
Xu Youren held the thick banknotes in his hands, his heart and mouth were filled with joy.
After a while, Su Mingzhe changed into a sweatshirt and went downstairs. When he saw the joy on Xu Youren's face, he knew that the old man had achieved his goal.
After sitting down and chatting for a while, Xu Youren refused his daughter and son-in-law's offer to stay for dinner, said goodbye and left.
Su Mingzhe helped Xu Banxia off, watched Xu Youren leave, and then asked the woman:
"Daughter-in-law, I just went upstairs and found a plan for the tidal flats. Did you find someone to make it?"
"No, it was sent by the city leaders."
When Xu Banxia talked about this, a proud smile appeared on his face:
"This time you followed Soros to short the Thai baht and doubled our assets. After the news spread, there were too many people who were greedy. Didn't the city, villages and towns originally not want to sell the tidal flat you were optimistic about before? Now they have all changed their minds and are rushing to sell it to us! No, the planning drawings have been prepared for us."
When Su Mingzhe heard the city's performance, he couldn't help curling his lips. He had known for a long time that the boss had fallen into the eyes of money, but he didn't expect that he could no longer calm down:
"How about the price?"
Xu Banxia thought for a while before speaking slowly:
"Because it is tidal flat land, and the leaders also know that we have plenty of money, so they asked for 200 yuan per square meter. According to the map you drew, the total is about 13,000 acres, and the total land price is 1.7 billion yuan. There are also other expenses, all added together, it is about 2.2 billion."
"The price is a bit high, but...that's it!"
Su Mingzhe pondered for a moment before agreeing to the city leader's offer.
In the 1990s, spending 2.2 billion to buy 13,000 acres of tidal flat land was definitely a blow to the imagination.
However, Su Mingzhe and Xu Banxia really had too much money to spend, and the higher authorities took the initiative to quote prices. Although the price was higher, it would be better if it was higher.
My dear, there will be more after this chapter, please click on the next page to continue, there will be more exciting things to come!
The problem is that all the procedures must be completed.
There should be no property rights disputes in the future.
After all, this is 13,000 acres of land. If the economy develops for a few years, let alone 2.2 billion, or even 4 billion, we may not be able to get it.
Su Mingzhe was determined to finalize the matter quickly, so he immediately called the city leaders. On the one hand, he agreed to the price request, and on the other hand, he asked the other party to ask the provincial government for approval.
This tidal flat involves the collective ownership of several villages and towns. Without provincial approval, Su Mingzhe did not dare to buy it.
After the city learned about Su Mingzhe's request, he didn't think much about it.
After all, at this time, they were sincerely selling this tidal flat to Shinhwa Group.
You know, Shinhwa Group is planning to build its own industrial zone.
Once this industrial zone is successfully constructed, it will provide at least over 10,000 local jobs.
The land was sold for money and at least 10,000 jobs were created. For the city leaders, this was a huge political achievement.
Therefore, after learning about Su Mingzhe's request, city leaders applied for approval overnight.
A week later, an inspection team from the province reviewed the industrial zone planning map of Shinhwa Group and finally approved it, allowing the city to sell the 13,000 acres of tidal flat land to Shinhwa Group to build an industrial zone.
Once the funds were disbursed, Shinhwa Group immediately began fencing the tidal flats and building seawalls.
Although it is already September and the end of the year is approaching, this tidal flat still begins to roar, turning into a huge construction site.
