Chapter 1257

Zhao Yujing agreed quite readily, and Yan Qidong hung up the phone with satisfaction.

He envied this old friend Zhao Yujing very much, and it wasn't to say that the other party had any outstanding academic achievements.

It was that the American International Republican Institute donated two million US dollars to the Agricultural Economics Institute where Zhao Yujing worked every year.

As a director and well-known professor, Zhao Yujing alone could get one-fifth of these two million US dollars in research funding.

At the same time, in a newly opened seafood restaurant in Yangcheng, Zhao Liangping leaned lazily against the back of his chair, picking his teeth with a toothpick in his hand.

In front of him was a large round table, with more than ten people sitting around it. If Zhou Andong saw these people, he would definitely feel very familiar.

Besides Zhang Sihe and Tian Tian, there were several young people among them who had appeared at the entrepreneur forum, and the other few people looked a bit unfamiliar, but looking at their clothes, they should also be of extraordinary background.

"General Manager Zhao!" A young man raised his wine glass with a flattering expression: "Brother will toast you another one."

"Not drinking!" Zhao Liangping waved his hand: "I have something to handle in a while."

The dozen or so people at the scene all looked at the young man holding the wine glass.

The young man didn't delay any more time: "General Manager Zhao, regarding the matter I told you before..."

Zhao Liangping smiled: "I do have foreign exchange in my hands, but more than half has already been released, and there is still more than ten million left. Can you guys eat it?"

When a few people heard this, they were immediately excited: "Yes, we can definitely eat it."

Actually, they were still regretting in their hearts; they had heard people say a long time ago that Zhao Liangping had a batch of foreign exchange in his hands, and the quantity wasn't small.

At first, they didn't think so much, but during this period of time, the price of foreign exchange soared, and it was already close to 1:15.

Only then did they remember to find Zhao Liangping, wanting to eat up the foreign exchange in Zhao Liangping's hands and make a profit.

Another twenty-three or twenty-four-year-old young man said: "General Manager Zhao, don't worry, we will give it to you according to the price on the market, not a cent less."

Zhao Liangping smiled slightly: "Do you know the price now?"

That young man nodded: "It's 14.7."

Zhao Liangping pondered for a while: "I have twelve million US dollars in my hands now. Since you guys found me, and everyone is not an outsider, I will give you a preferential price, 14.5.

But, the transaction must be made before ten o'clock tomorrow morning. If it's past ten o'clock, then I'm sorry to everyone, I can only find other buyers."

The foreign exchange Zhao Liangping had left was specifically left for appreciation.

But just yesterday, he learned a piece of news: the country was going to carry out exchange rate reform, and it would be implemented on January 1st.

He didn't know the specific content, but he knew that holding so much foreign exchange in his hands carried a great risk.

It had to be released as soon as possible, otherwise he might regret it.

But there were only three days left, and more than ten million US dollars wasn't easy to release.

Just when he was anxious and turning around, his mouth was blistered from anger, and he was thinking about whether to cut his losses.

This group of kind-hearted people in front of him found him, and then there was today's dinner party.

"General Manager Zhao, I have to admire you, brother; you are truly generous. No wonder your business can be done so big."

A two-cent price difference doesn't sound like much, but for such a large foreign exchange conversion, that's also more than two million.

At this time, Tian Tian spoke: "General Manager Zhao, you can rest assured, we can trade at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Good!" Zhao Liangping stood up: "Then I'll go first."

Zhao Liangping left the restaurant, a cheerful smile appearing on his face.

Regarding that piece of land in Nansha, he didn't find Zhuo Qihua at first because he thought the other party wasn't a good thing, so he found Zhou Andong.

Who would have thought that Zhou Andong was even less of a good thing, pressing the price hard here, and then turning around and selling it to Zhuo Qihua.

He made a difference of two hundred million. After he knew, he was naturally very unhappy in his heart.

But Zhou Andong used foreign exchange to pay for the land, which comforted him a bit.

After he released twenty million US dollars, the unhappiness in his heart toward Zhou Andong instantly vanished.

Because Zhou Andong gave him foreign exchange at 1:10, and he released it at 1:13, making sixty million RMB.

Besides, there were still twelve million US dollars in his hands; if all were released.

Looking at it overall, Zhou Andong didn't treat him badly, but rather gave him a price much higher than his bottom price.

In this way, this guy was a bit embarrassed instead.

This person Zhou Andong is still quite good, speaking and doing things very openly, and is a friend worth associating with.

Have time to invite him out to drink tea together, consider it an apology.

And he also knew clearly in his heart that even if he had found Zhuo Qihua at that time, that guy wouldn't have bought it.

Even if Zhuo Qihua had been interested, he estimated the price would have been pressed even lower than Zhou Andong's.

As for where Zhuo Qihua is now, he is hiding in an ordinary residential area and hasn't shown his face.

Because he heard wind that those creditors knew he was in the mainland and had already chased him over, looking for him everywhere.

Therefore, this guy is very low-key, his hair is cut short, he wears a Zhongshan suit, and even wears glasses.

He only comes out for a walk morning and evening, no different from an ordinary retired cadre in the country.

At night, Zhuo Qihua finished his simple dinner alone and was just about to go out when Si Wei returned.

"Why did you come back so late?" Zhuo Qihua looked at Si Wei, his tone and expression looking very dissatisfied.

Si Wei kicked off her high heels, then threw her bag on the coffee table, and threw her exhausted self onto the sofa.

"Why I came back so late, don't you have a count in your heart?"

Zhuo Qihua also knew he was in the wrong, turned and sat beside Si Wei, and massaged her.

"How did the talk go?"

Si Wei sighed: "The city has been refusing to loosen up; we must cooperate with the overall planning and construction of Nansha. Within five years, the 870 mu of land must all be under construction, and within ten years, it must be completed."

Zhuo Qihua frowned tightly: "What if we don't start construction?"

Si Wei said: "Yangcheng will take back the land plot according to the initial land grant price."

Zhuo Qihua's complexion changed instantly: "What is the initial land grant price?"

"More than three hundred per mu."

Si Wei's voice wasn't loud, but hearing it in Zhuo Qihua's ears was like a thunderclap.

"How much?" Zhuo Qihua shouted in disbelief: "We bought the land for hundreds of thousands per mu, and they want to buy it back for more than three hundred?"

Si Wei sighed: "It's useless for you to be angry. Yangcheng doing this is actually to prevent us from hoarding land and affecting the progress of Nansha's planning and construction. And they also said that if it's not completed within the required time, there will be a fine."

Zhuo Qihua wanted to curse; that was 870 mu of land. If his funds were sufficient, it would definitely be no problem.

But now the money in his hands simply couldn't support such a large-scale construction project.
