Named because it is located to the east of Qingyun River, Dongjiang is both a seaside city and a riverside city. It has beautiful scenery, pleasant climate, and a permanent population of 16 million. It is a city of tourism and food.
Compared with super metropolises like Chuzhou and Dongjiang, in addition to the collection atmosphere, both population and economy are inferior to each other.
Of course, because Chuzhou is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties and has a strong cultural atmosphere, the number of tourists is no worse than Dongjiang, or even more.
Lijing Haoting Community is located on Dongjiang Binhai Street, backed by the Qingshui River, the largest tributary of the Qingyun River. It is the most famous duplex community in Dongjiang. It is known as the first community in Dongjiang with an average price of nearly 60,000 yuan per square meter.
In addition to its good location, the eight-meter-high floor is also the biggest selling point of Lijing Haoting.
In addition, there is also the distance between buildings. For buildings on the top 12 floors, the distance between buildings reaches an astonishing 120 meters, and the views and lighting are top-notch.
Lijing Haoting is the first real estate developed by Chujian Group after entering Dongjiang, and no expense is spared just for word of mouth.
Nowadays, every building in Lijing Haoting for sale is basically listed at the agency in the morning, and will be bought directly by someone paying a high deposit in the afternoon.
Duplex buildings are already very famous, but a villa in Lijing Haoting is even more difficult to find.
The villa area of Lijing Haoting is called: "Lijing Yayuan".
There are only ninety-nine villas in the entire Lijing Yayuan villa area, both European and modern, as well as Chinese classics. Each household has its own swimming pool and private garden. The price is 200,000 per square meter, but even if you have the money, you can still buy it.
No, because there is nothing for sale.
But if you think about it, you can understand that it is located in a downtown area where land is at a premium, and it is a limited edition. There are so many rich people in Dongjiang, how can they buy it whenever they want?
It's unusually quiet outside a Chinese-style villa near the lake in the southern area of the villa. From the outside, it doesn't look like a villa but more like a garden, with pavilions, pavilions, bamboo forests and flower ponds.
On the soft sofa in the living room on the third floor of the villa, Gu Yongshan, chairman of Taihe Group, is listening to reports from his subordinates.
Gu Yongshan is 52 years old. Because of his elegant appearance and easy-going temper, he is known as "a generation of Confucian businessmen" in Dongjiang business circles.
"Boss, this is all Miss Qingqing's experience in Chuzhou after she separated from the second young master as of two o'clock this afternoon." The person talking to Gu Yongshan was a good-looking woman, about thirty years old, wearing black clothes.
Wearing rimmed glasses and an exquisite women's suit, her hair is also a short hairstyle that shows off her energy. The whole person looks unusually stable and capable.
"You mean Qingqing has been with Mr. Shen's grandson Shen Yu since they separated from Shi'an?" Gu Qingshan asked in a low voice as he picked up a few newly printed photos on the coffee table.
In the photo, Gu Qingqing is holding Shen Yu's arm while shopping in the flea market with a happy face.
"That's it." The short-haired woman spoke decisively, and not a word was nonsense.
"Okay, I understand the matter. You have worked hard. Go to the guest room and take a rest. By the way, you should also tell the colleagues who protect Qingqing that I will have a red envelope for you when you return to Dongjiang."
"Then I would like to thank the chairman and the lady on behalf of my colleagues in the security department of the group." The short-haired woman finally showed a smile. At this time, she was more or less charming as a woman should be.
Gu Yongshan frowned when he heard this: "In the future, we don't want to be called young ladies or young masters. Just call them by their names. You are the director of the security department of the group that I hired sincerely from a long distance away. You are not an ancient servant."
The short-haired woman smiled politely: "Qingqing fell in love with me because I'm used to it."
"What you call them is a matter between you, I don't care, but here, I can only call them by their names." At this time, the elegant Gu Yongshan showed the magnanimity of a wealthy businessman in charge of tens of billions of assets, and he followed the rules.
There is no doubt about it.
"Now that I know the chairman, I won't do it next time."
"Well, let's take a rest."
After the woman came downstairs, Gu Yongshan rubbed his forehead and stood up from the sofa.
Brush!
He slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and gently opened the curtains.
The Gu family's villa has the best lighting on the third floor, but the lighting is so good that Gu Yongshan sometimes doesn't get used to it and closes the curtains at noon.
Gu Yongshan has many properties, but he prefers to live in this villa. Not only is it quiet and elegant, there is also a large artificial lake in front of the villa called Yingyue Lake. This is not entirely artificial development, but is located in the original place.
It was expanded on the basis of Deep Water Cold Pond.
The original cold pool was called Bingyue Pool, with an area of only a few hundred square meters. However, the water in the pool was bone-chilling no matter in spring, autumn, winter or summer, and it was so deep that some people dived down nearly twenty meters before reaching the bottom.
The water from the pool overflowed and formed a stream that flowed into the Qingshui River. Later, the developer simply built an artificial lake around Hantan.
Now there is a lot of water in the lake, which is crystal clear and as cold as snow in summer. Coupled with the lush forest vegetation around the lake, the entire Yingyue Lake is a veritable urban oxygen bar and natural air conditioner.
Opening a window, the cool breeze blew from the lake, and Gu Yongshan took a deep breath.
After looking into the distance for a long time, he took out a cigarette from his jacket pocket. He sniffed it gently, then hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a lighter and lit it. He took a deep breath and said, "Hey, the daughter is not good at staying, and the son is big.
I can’t help my mother!”
"No matter how old you are, Qingqing doesn't matter how old she is, I can take care of her!" After saying this, a middle-aged beauty wearing white home clothes walked out of the bedroom more than ten meters away.
She is 70% similar to Gu Qingqing in appearance and height, but compared to Gu Qingqing's softness, the middle-aged beauty has a cold and sharp look in her beautiful eyes, which makes people feel a sense of distance from the bottom of their hearts at just one glance.
In short, this person gives people the feeling that he is not easy to get along with at first sight.
She quickly walked up to Gu Yongshan and took the cigarette out of Gu Yongshan's mouth, then walked to the ashtray on the coffee table and squandered it out.
The decoration of the Gu family's villa is extremely luxurious. Both the leather sofa and various mahogany furniture are all handmade and customized.
Various home appliances are also the brand's top-end customized products. You can't buy them in shopping malls. The style and luxury of the living room alone are even better than the presidential suite in a five-star hotel.<

"You just had liver surgery. Are you smoking because you want to separate from me sooner?"
Gu Yongshan smiled bitterly: "Huiping, why did you come out? Your blood pressure control was not good during the time I was hospitalized. Didn't the doctor tell you to take a nap?"
Xu Huiping frowned: "Sleep? How can I sleep? My daughter is about to run away with someone. Can I still sleep?"
Gu Yongshan smiled bitterly again, "It's not as serious as you said. The young man from the Shen family respects Qingqing very much."
"It's just playing hard to get. It doesn't matter if this silly girl can't see it. You still can't see it? What I didn't expect is that Qingqing, this damn girl, actually went the other way and gave the dividends from Donggu Department Store to that kid. I was really pissed off.
."
Gu Yongshan walked up to his wife, patted her back gently, and then said softly: "You can't say that, after all, I saved Qingqing once. This great kindness, our Gu family will never forget."<
/p>
"The kindness has been repaid. His father lost more than 30 million in futures trading. Did you buy his villa and building at the highest price in the market? It can even be said to be much higher than the market price. In the end, he still had more than 300 yuan.
If the ten thousand yuan is not enough, did you secretly help pay it back?"
"Money is just a trivial matter. How can Qingqing's safety be measured by money?" Gu Yongshan continued to persuade.
"Anyway, Qingqing wants to be boyfriend and girlfriend with the boy from the Shen family. I won't agree to it unless, unless I die!" Xu Huiping shook off Gu Yongshan's hand on her back and quickly walked to the bar to pour herself a glass of wine.
A glass of red wine.
This time it was Gu Yongshan's turn to take the cup from her hand, "What should you drink if you have high blood pressure? In fact, Mr. Shen's grandson is really good. He is a top student at Dongjiang University. You know, you and I pride ourselves on being excellent, but both
Didn’t get admitted to Tokyo University.
"And he has lived with Mr. Shen since he was a child. His education and character are among the best among young people, not to mention his appearance. He is three points more handsome than many girls. The most important thing is that Qingqing likes him. From this point of view, Zhao
Wouldn’t it be nice to have him as a son-in-law?”
Xu Huiping rolled her eyes at her husband and said in an angry tone: "You are so good-looking that you can make a living? This man named Shen Yu wants money but no money, and no power. If Qingqing marries him, do you want to open an antique shop with him for the rest of your life?"<
/p>
"What is money without money? Don't our families have enough money? Money is just a number to you and me now, and even to Qingqing. Qingqing married a billionaire, and two billion is still there.
One hundred thousand or two hundred thousand makes no difference to our Gu family.
"In my heart, being young and happy is better than anything else. Big fish, big meat, abalone, ginseng, fins and belly, can't compare to your bowl of beef noodles, hundreds of houses, thousands of bedrooms, and you can only sleep on one bed."
As Gu Yongshan spoke, he brought the red wine to his mouth and took a sip.
"Hmph! There are so many houses, why don't you like living in this villa? Qingqing originally lived in such a good place, but now that she's married, she doesn't have a stable place to live. Do you want to live with the Shen boy on a flat bed in a hotel?" Xu Huiping grabbed the attention.
Yongshan drank the red wine in his hand and then snorted angrily.
"Don't bully young people into being poor. Who knows whether Xiao Shen will live in a better villa than us in the future? Having said that, wasn't I also a poor boy back then? When you and I first met in middle school, my family was just a grocery store owner.
Why don’t you marry me anyway?”
What Gu Yongshan said is absolutely correct. The fundamental reason why he was able to stand out among the three heirs of the Gu family and then take charge of the Dongjiang Gu family's tens of billions of assets was not entirely because of the eldest son, nor how good he was.
p>
The old man of the Gu family, Gu Jingchuan, has three sons.
The second oldest, Gu Yongcheng, holds a PhD in Business Administration from Oxford University and is the president of Donggu Department Store Group.
The third child, Gu Yongfan, holds a PhD in Business Administration from Stanford University and is the president of Donggu Hotel Chain Group.
Gu Yongshan only graduated from high school and went to night university.
The reason why Gu Yongshan inherited most of the Gu family's business was mostly because of Xu Huiping.
Xu Huiping is the eldest daughter of Xu Jingchuan of the Chuzhou Xu Jewelry Group. When the Gu family was still running a grocery store, the Xu family’s gold and silver jewelry had entered department stores in all cities and counties in Jiangnan Province, and also had its own stores in major prefecture-level cities.
jewelry store.
Gu Yongshan, a poor boy, was unlikely to have anything to do with Xu Huiping, but Xu Huiping had a fierce quarrel with her father because of Xu Jingchuan's re-engagement, and even ran away from home in anger and went to her aunt's house in Dongjiang.
No matter how much Xu Jingchuan tried to persuade her, her aunt simply arranged for Xu Huiping to transfer to a high school in Dongjiang.
As a result, the two became classmates. After graduating from high school, Xu Huiping went to college, while Gu Yongshan helped his father with his business.
Later, Xu Huiping had a serious car accident, and Gu Yongshan happened to be driving to a neighboring city to deliver goods to a customer. Gu Yongshan took the risk of breach of contract and put Xu Huiping in the car and returned to Dongjiang to be sent to the emergency center of the Central Hospital.
Xu Huiping lost a lot of blood and the blood bank was in emergency. Gu Yongshan directly drew 800cc of blood at a time. Xu Huiping stayed with her day and night after the operation. Xu Huiping was moved to tears.
After Xu Huiping graduated from college, Gu Yongshan mustered up the courage to ask his father Gu Jingchuan to propose marriage in Chuzhou. Although the Gu family was already prosperous at that time and had bought a six-story building, which was the original Donggu Department Store, it was not as good as the Xu family.
The difference is far away. In the mid-1980s, Xu's jewelry assets were nearly 10 million.
The old man of the Gu family, Gu Jingchuan, also had the courage to propose marriage, but when he sat down to drink tea and chat, he found that the heads of the two families had the same name. During the conversation, there was a feeling that they had met at a late date. After drinking three bottles of Chuzhou Daqu, this The marriage is decided.
Because Xu Huiping was married at that time, Gu Jingchuan respected the Gu family's wife very much, and even delegated power to Xu Huiping to manage Donggu Department Store. From then on, the Gu family's business grew bigger and bigger.
After Gu Yongshan inherited the family business, Xu Huiping gave up her positions as president of Donggu Department Store Group and Donggu Hotel Chain Group to her two brothers-in-law, adding another legend in the Dongjiang business community.
"Huiping, one thing you may not know is that although Mr. Shen passed away, he left many connections to Shen Yu. Although these are invisible and intangible, they cannot be ignored."
Xu Huiping asked in surprise: "What connections?"
"Do you know who came to Mr. Shen's memorial service?"
"Who?"
Gu Yongshan hesitated for a moment and waved his hand: "Forget it, I won't tell you anymore."
"How can you say half-truth?"
"Mr. Li."
"Which Mr. Li?"
Gu Yongshan did not speak, but pointed to the ceiling.
