Chapter 414: Eternal Prosperity Construction Engineering Company

After handling the handover work at the fruit market, Chen Yang called Zhou Zhixin and asked him to arrange the contractor to take over the demolition and reconstruction work.

To Chen Yang's surprise, Zhou Zhixin actually found a contractor from Xingcheng to take on this project.

Chen Yang guessed that the real estate developers in Qingshui City had pretty much been squeezed dry by Zhou Zhixin. To avoid a blow-up, he could only reach out to Xingcheng.

On the morning of May 10, Chen Yang received Li Yongfa, chairman of Eternal Prosperity Construction Engineering Company from Xingcheng, and his project team in the chairman's office of Old Citizens Meat Industry Co., Ltd.

According to the information Chen Yang got from Yexin, Yongfa Construction Engineering Company was only established in recent years. Boss Li Yongfa is young, just over forty.

Moreover, Li Yongfa has great ambitions, having secured several real estate projects in Xingcheng.

A company that has only been established for a few years daring to take on several projects at once, if it runs into cash flow problems, the probability of blowing up is very high.

After exchanging pleasantries with Li Yongfa, Chen Yang directly voiced his concern: "Chairman Li, as far as I know, your company already has several projects underway. If you take on mine as well, will your funds and manpower be sufficient? Will it delay my project's progress?"

Li Yongfa immediately said to Chen Yang: "Boss Chen, since this project was introduced by Chairman Zhou, we will definitely prioritize its completion!"

Chen Yang solemnly said to him: "Since Chairman Li has promised to prioritize my project, I will write this promise into the contract. If you breach the agreement, even with Chairman Zhou's guarantee, I will terminate the contract through legal proceedings."

"Don't worry, Boss Chen, even if I shut down all the projects in Xingcheng, I won't delay your work." As an elite of Xingcheng's business community, Li Yongfa had long heard of Chen Yang's reputation. Taking on Qingshui City's fruit market renovation project was also a way for him to make a face-to-face impression in front of Chen Yang.

Seeing Li Yongfa's promise not to delay his work, Chen Yang felt somewhat satisfied. He then had Li Yongfa and his team go to the fruit market for an on-site survey.

After they finished surveying the site, he handed over the photocopy of the prepared new fruit market design drawings to Li Yongfa, so his team could study the project quotation.

One day later, Li Yongfa and his team found Chen Yang again and quoted 15 million for the fruit market renovation project.

Chen Yang had Li Yongfa's team members leave his office first, then asked him: "Is the building material quote given to you by Chairman Zhou twice the market price?"

Li Yongfa gave a bitter smile and said: "Boss Chen, I thought only those of us in the real estate business knew about this, but I didn't expect your information to be so well-informed."

Seeing Li Yongfa admit that Zhou Zhixin had taken double the building material price, Chen Yang immediately voiced his concern: "Chairman Li, will your quote result in a loss?"

Li Yongfa laughed and said: "Being able to cooperate with Boss Chen is my honor. Losing a little money is no problem!"

Chen Yang shook his head and said: "Chairman Li, doing it this way won't work. Even if it's not for yourself, you must consider the workers below. If they don't get paid, they won't work enthusiastically. How can I trust you to complete this project perfectly?"

Li Yongfa didn't expect Chen Yang, as the client, to also consider his company's situation from his perspective, and felt somewhat moved. "Boss Chen, rest assured, I guarantee this project will have no cutting corners, and I will not withhold the workers' wages."

Although Chen Yang didn't understand Li Yongfa's overly enthusiastic behavior, to eliminate hidden risks early he still spoke frankly: "The quote of 15 million is a bit low; I'll give you 20 million! But you must guarantee the project quality. If I later find any quality issues, I won't give you even 100,000, let alone 20 million."

Upon hearing this, Li Yongfa repeatedly expressed his thanks to Chen Yang and again promised to strictly control the project quality.

After seeing off Li Yongfa and his team, Chen Yang called Zhang Linlin.

"Big Boss Chen, what good thing do you need me for?" Zhang Linlin's voice on the phone sounded a little happy. Although they couldn't talk about a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, whenever Chen Yang called, she could gain quite a few economic benefits. This was her god of wealth!

Chen Yang got straight to the point: "Zhang Linlin, I remember you participated in demolition compensation negotiations when you worked at the Double Forest Market, right?"

"Are you looking for someone to handle demolition compensation work? Where is it? I'll come right over!"

"I just secured the renovation project for the city's fruit wholesale market, and I need to negotiate compensation with several hundred merchants in the market. If you're interested, you can temporarily form a team to take over this project. I'll give you a bonus budget of 100,000. If the efficiency is high, I can add another 50,000 bonus."

"Alright, then I'll go contact my former sisters now."

Zhang Linlin quickly hung up the phone. Although Chen Yang's task was to negotiate with several hundred merchants, the core issue was only one: the merchants' interest demands.

Based on her understanding of Chen Yang, as long as the merchants' demands are not excessive, they can basically be satisfied. This negotiation work is actually not difficult.

Therefore, all she needed to do was gather people to share this negotiation work and solve Chen Yang's problem as quickly as possible.

Zhang Linlin worked efficiently, finding ten capable female assistants in just one day.

Chen Yang vacated the original property company office of the fruit market for them to work in, and also temporarily hired several skilled guards to handle security.

Under the incentive of high bonuses, Zhang Linlin's team was extremely efficient, settling all demolition compensation work in just half a month.

After paying Zhang Linlin a bonus of 150,000, Chen Yang formally notified Li Yongfa's team to come to Qingshui City to start the demolition and reconstruction work on the new fruit market.

At the demolition ceremony, Qingshui City's Party Committee Secretary Zhou Zhixiang and Mayor Kong Jie personally came to the site to give speeches. Qingshui City Television Station also dispatched professional reporters to the site for filming and interviews.

After the ceremony, Chen Yang was summoned by Zhou Zhixiang to the Party Committee Secretary's office.

"Chen Yang, although I'm not very optimistic about this fruit market renovation project, your efficiency has moved me. With such a capable team, I believe the people of Qingshui City will see a completely new, different fruit wholesale market."

"Thank you, Secretary Zhou, for your praise. I will certainly not betray your and Mayor Kong's trust, and will do my utmost to give the people of Qingshui City a completely new, different fruit wholesale market." Chen Yang gave a perfunctory reply, feigning emotion.

Chen Yang knew better than anyone what kind of person Zhou Zhixiang was. An official corrupted by economics could never truly serve the people!
