"Old Zhou, let's get down to business. I came to you this time mainly because I want to tell you something."
"What happened?"
"At the end of this month, I plan to officially retire and hand over the company to our fourth son. He now knows how to make progress, and I feel relieved to leave it to him."
Zhang Chongxin replied.
Zhou Jianneng was shocked: "Is it too hasty? Zhang Hao has no experience at all. I advise you to wait two years before retiring."
"You can learn slowly if you don't have experience. You also know the situation in our family. Zhang Hao has finally embarked on the right path now. What he needs is encouragement and guidance. I can't dampen his enthusiasm at this time."
Zhang Chongxin himself also has his own difficulties.
It is said that every family has its own problems. If the son does not take over, it is unknown whether the family business can be sustained.
Besides, he is not young now. One day, when he closes his eyes, the family business will eventually be inherited by his son.
In this case, it is better to let the opponent practice his skills early. With him here, even if there is a mistake, he can save it in time and not be completely defeated.
"I understand, the reason why you are looking for me is to let me take care of him more?"
"Yes, you are a senior in the business world and more capable than me. I want you to give him more guidance."
"Haha... Based on our relationship over the years, I will definitely help if I can."
Zhou Jianneng patted his chest and promised.
Zhang Chongxin suddenly smiled: "Thank you, I plan to hold a retirement party this weekend, and we old guys will have a drink together."
"Okay, I will definitely go to the banquet on time."
Next, Zhang Chongxin took his old friend straight to the warehouse. After some secret observation, Zhou Jianneng had to give a thumbs up.
"Old Zhang, among the younger generation, there are very few people like your Zhang Hao who can endure hardships. He is just a blockbuster without making a sound!"
"Thank you, it's too early to say this now..."
Having said that, the smile on Zhang Chongxin’s face cannot deceive anyone.
"Just have fun secretly. My eyes will never see the wrong person. The fourth child in your family is not simple."
Zhou Jianneng couldn't help but sigh.
To be honest, in this "good nephew", he saw many excellent qualities that are only found in the older generation, especially "the ability to endure hardship", which seems very simple, but is too difficult to do. p>
Even their Hengming couldn’t do it.
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
"Hey, I originally thought that your second son was good and a good candidate for business, but I didn't expect that this guy Zhang Hao was not bad either. Your old Zhang family has talented people!"
"The two of them together can't compare to your Hengming."
Zhang Chongxin quickly said modestly.
The son is not yet known, but the second child in their family does have a talent for business. She has taken care of her in-laws' large farm in an orderly manner. It is said that the annual income is much higher than that of the surrounding farms.
Zhou Jianneng waved his hand: "It's a pity for your second child. If you had been willing to let her take over the company, Xinfeng Group might have been listed early."
"Ahem, why are you talking about this? Girls are meant to get married, and family should be the priority."
Zhang Chongxin subconsciously said something perfunctory.
Zhou Jianneng didn't say anything else, stayed for a while and then left. He was also very busy here.
……
After get off work, Zhang Hao finally received the good news.
As early as last week, he tried to find an ideal "refuge" through a real estate agency in Huicheng.
That's right, the city he chose to take refuge in was Huicheng.
There are three main reasons:
First of all, Huicheng City is a super first-tier city with complete infrastructure, developed industry, and relatively sufficient supply of materials. Moreover, the larger the city, the better the public security;
Secondly, Huicheng is a coastal city and can obtain various energy sources through shipping, making life more secure;
Finally, Huicheng is the southernmost of all large cities. Once a volcano erupts and winter comes, the temperature in the south will be about ten degrees higher than in the north, making it relatively more livable, especially for the elderly.
In addition, you can actually choose to immigrate to other major regions, but after all, if you are unfamiliar with the place overseas, it is better to stay in this region.
The entire Eastern Region is an industrial center, which will undoubtedly have more advantages in the end of the world. It will also be the food production center of the entire federation in the future.
Staying is definitely the best choice.
Soon, the two parties connected on the video call.
"Xiao Wang, is there any result?"
Zhang Hao asked impatiently.
"Mr. Zhang, based on your request, we have temporarily found four candidates. We are calling you this time just to hear your opinion."
"Oh? It's so fast. Please introduce me quickly."
Zhang Hao was overjoyed after hearing this.
After all, time waits for no one. The sooner you decide, the sooner you can start preparations.
Xiao Wang pointed the camera at the information in his hand:
"Mr. Zhang, this is the first place. It is an unfinished underground shopping mall. It is close to the bustling area of the city. The location is very advantageous and there is a lot of people nearby.
The most important thing is that its main project is almost completed, and it only needs to be renovated before it can be put into use, saving time and effort."
"Underground shopping mall? How big is it?"
Zhang Hao frowned. There were many building restrictions in the urban area. It would be too troublesome to renovate it. A few months would definitely not be enough.
"It's about 15,000 square meters. The seller is in urgent need of money right now, so the price is very favorable. The package price is only 800 million yuan."
Zhang Hao was shocked. His father's net worth was only 1 billion. After spending so much money, he wouldn't have to do anything else.
"Ahem, let's not consider this for now, hurry up and talk about the next one!"
"Okay, the second place is a large independent villa in the city. It has three floors in total, an area of 800 square meters, a garden and a private swimming pool, and a basement. The landlord is asking for 120 million. I think the deal can be done for 100 million." "Only one basement level?"
"That's right."
"Let this be an alternative, you go on."
Zhang Hao nodded.
Xiao Wang turned over a page: "The third place is also a three-story independent villa, but it is located in the western suburbs. It covers an area of 3,200 square meters. It has a garden and a swimming pool. It also has two basements. The first floor is
In the garage, the first floor is a storage room."
"Hey, this is good, what's the price?"
"The real estate industry has been sluggish in the past two years, especially for houses in the suburbs. The owner has quoted a price of 80 million, and all furniture and appliances are included."
"Not bad, where is the last place?"
Zhang Hao nodded with satisfaction.
If there is no better place, I would choose this suburban villa. The main reason is that the place is large enough to store a large amount of supplies.
"The last part is a little special."
"What special law?"
Zhang Hao asked curiously.
Xiao Wang pointed to the picture and introduced: "This place is an abandoned ballistic missile silo. It is located at the junction of Huicheng and Xiangshan City, and the transportation is very convenient.
It was used to grow mushrooms before, but unfortunately it was poorly managed and is currently idle.
Mr. Zhang, aren’t you looking for a larger basement? A little renovation here would definitely be suitable, and the price is not expensive.”
