Chapter 255: Jiang Tian Sheng Rides the Roller Coaster
Youde accepted this gift; afterwards, Red Letter Real Estate Company would have the opportunity to compete fairly with others for quality land parcels.
There will be no problems with the Hong Kong Government side; this is a fair trade.
If it were someone else today, Li Xin would not speak rashly; he would use some tactful methods to do things.
Youde is the exception; this foreigner can be said to understand China very thoroughly!
He does not reject personal interactions!
Moreover, Li Xin's identity is also an important reason; he is now not only a wealthy man but also an undercover police officer.
As for that councilor identity, don't even mention it! It's of some use to mid- and lower-level police officers; for Youde and them.
It's no different from a joke!
However, this matter still needs to be told to the other two shareholders; this also lets them act freely.
No need to be hesitant!
Otherwise the money would be wasted!
Hmm! It's not completely wasted either, as Hong Kong's donations can be tax-deductible!
As much as possible at this point, take on more real estate projects; once you miss this village, there's no such shop—if you can eat, eat more!
After the conversation ended, Li Xin felt that this had been done too beautifully!
As for Director Yu, when he took over the walled city, he just called with one meaning: deal with the walled city.
Don't drag it until the handover; this no-man's land also annoys them to look at!
How many wins is this?
Li Xin, in high spirits, found Ding Ye with a beaming smile and said, "Thank you, Ding Ye, for your strong support."
Ding Ye said wearily, "Can I not come? You must not let Xin and the two of them smash my boxing arena!"
"Ding Ye! You're wronging me! A Xin is not that kind of person; besides, this is a good thing for the walled city's residents."
Li Xin took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed one to Ding Ye, and lit it for him.
He then continued, "Ding Ye! You can't stop this; you've seen the reaction of the walled city's residents—do you dare to block it?"
Ding Ye sighed, took a drag of his cigarette, and said with a furrowed brow, "What about the walled city's fighting arena? We can't let them go without food, can we?"
Li Xin looked at this old thing—this damn face is too thick-skinned!
Is it those boxers who have no food, or is it you who has no food?
You have no shame at all!
Li Xin laughed and replied, "Ding Ye! You've made enough over these years; if you're worried about not having a good end, you can go live in Xi Gong; A Xin can still guarantee this much!"
"Don't throw away your life for greed—it's not worth it!"
Ding Ye saw Li Xin wouldn't budge, so he could only reluctantly agree: "Alright! I'll go back, pack up, and head straight to Xi Gong for retirement!"
Li Xin then laughed and said, "That's right! I'll call A Si in a bit to personally escort you to Xi Gong."
"Xiao Hui will be back from Yingjiang soon, and the two of them can finally reunite."
Exactly! The flower shop's Xiao Hui is A Si's girlfriend.
Li Xin met up with Li Yunfei and Jiang Tian Sheng, then drove straight to the Red Letter Building.
After entering the office, Li Xin sat on the sofa.
Looking at Li Yunfei and Jiang Tian Sheng, he said, "Ding Ye, that old fox, still wants to linger in the walled city! He's basically out of his mind!"
"If he doesn't agree to go to Xi Gong, he won't even have a chance to retire."
Jiang Tian Sheng laughed and said, "He's made plenty from the walled city over the years; now being able to retire in Xi Gong counts as a good ending."
Li Yunfei also nodded, "Yeah, but it's better if he leaves—saves future trouble."
"Right, A Xin, what should we do about the walled city next?"
Li Xin pondered for a moment, then said, "First settle the real estate company's affairs, then quickly build the Affordable Housing Estate."
"Otherwise we can't move on the walled city; we must at least give people a meal, not go too overboard—do you have any ideas?"
Jiang Tian Sheng thought and said, "A Xin is right; the walled city is too complicated, with too many evil spirits—let's wait until the housing estate is built before saying more."
"We can't move on it now, or we'll cause trouble ourselves—this can't be done."
Li Yunfei then said, "Mm! The Hong Kong Government has already approved the construction land; just speed up the building."
"This piece of meat placed there—no one else can move it; the walled city isn't something just anyone can touch, even if they have money, they lack the power!"
After the three finished talking about the walled city, Li Xin spoke up again, "Hey! Don't say I just take shares and do nothing—I've actually done a big thing that can push the real estate company further."
"Don't keep us in suspense—spill it!"
Seeing the two's curious looks, Li Xin wasn't joking.
He said, "From now on, Red Letter Real Estate Company will donate one-tenth of its annual profits to the Der Si Charitable Foundation—any objections?"
As his words fell, Li Yunfei's eyes widened, his expression somewhat incredulous.
He excitedly asked, "A Xin! Have you hooked up with the Hong Kong Governor? This isn't a joke—don't raise our hopes!"
Li Yunfei knew very well how the Der Si Foundation works.
He had wanted to donate before, but the amount was too large and they wouldn't accept it!
Jiang Tian Sheng was even more excited; as long as he hooked up with the Hong Kong Governor, clearing his name completely would be a piece of cake!
His eyes stared eagerly at Li Xin, wanting to know if it was true.
"I don't have that kind of ability."
Li Xin waved his hand and continued, "This is just a coincidence; they saw I'd done a bit of work for the Hong Kong Government and gave me some small rewards as a token."
"But don't get your hopes up too high—this donation only guarantees us a fair bidding environment; don't think about anything else, it's impossible!"
Upon hearing that, Jiang Tian Sheng slumped like a deflated balloon onto the sofa.
"Sigh, I just want to completely get ashore—why is this so hard?" he muttered to himself.
Li Xin, seeing this, comforted him: "Mr. Jiang, don't lose heart either; this matter can't be rushed, take it slow!"
"Now you have already pulled out one leg; Red Trust Real Estate is the ladder."
Jiang Tian Sheng nodded slightly, but his heart remained feeling lost.
But he also knew that truly clearing his name and coming ashore was no easy task.
In Jiang Tian Sheng's heart, a surge of anger suddenly arose.
He burst out cursing: "Damn it, the Li and Ma families can clear their names, why can't I? Isn't this just bullying?"
Li Yunfei said unhappily: "You should be content; without A Xin, could you be discussing matters with me?"
"Now, at Red Trust Real Estate Company, you have shares; as long as you keep going, you'll eventually be able to sit at the table and eat—what more do you want?"
Jiang Tian Sheng hurriedly rubbed his face, realizing he had lost composure!
However, he also took Li Yunfei's words to heart.
He glanced at A Xin, made a decision in his heart—the time had come!
This isn't entirely Jiang Tian Sheng's fault; as the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
When he was starving, someone gave him a bowl of rabbit meat—something he could look at but not eat.
Li Xin secretly laughed; Jiang Tian Sheng had long wanted to enter the real estate industry and clear his name through it.
Now that he's in, he also wants to clear his name completely—but it's not that easy.
However, this is a good thing; as long as he wants to clear his name, he won't do anything outrageous and will also safeguard the company's interests.
Li Xin had long understood that relationships of interest are the most reliable.
Moreover, Jiang Tian Sheng indeed hasn't treated him poorly and can give him a hand.
Li Xin certainly won't stand by idly!
Leaving the two to continue their discussion, Li Xin directly returned to Xi Gong.
