Chapter 2232: Zhou Qianyi's Question

The smile on Zhou Andong's face became even brighter. He stepped forward and said to Tang Lin while walking.

"Did you notify the district?"

"I did." Tang Lin nodded: "We are using our own money to repair the underground pipe network, and District Mayor Ma is overjoyed."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Although repairing this underground pipe network doesn't cost much, even a mosquito's leg is meat. The district is naturally happy if they can save money."

At this time, several people had reached the very front, and the signs for Zhou Le and Zhou Yu Alley had already been hung.

Zhou Andong turned into Zhou Le Alley, where tricycles and even vans were parked at every gate.

Men, women, old, and young were moving things onto the vehicles, and the smiles on their faces never disappeared.

Moving out of the crowded courtyard and into an apartment building was something they wouldn't even dare to dream of in the past.

But ever since the remaining four courtyards in the back alley were also bought by Zhou Andong, even the tenants benefited and moved into apartment buildings. While they were envious, they also had expectations in their hearts.

When they were free, they would privately guess whether Zhou Andong would buy the courtyards in the last two alleys, and even the homeowners had this thought.

So, when Er Squire contacted them and said that Zhou Andong wanted to acquire the courtyards in both alleys, they agreed without even thinking.

They knew that Zhou Andong was very generous and wouldn't let them suffer. Sure enough, during the negotiations, he tried his best to satisfy their conditions, which could be said to be a win-win for everyone.

Especially the tenants, who could also move into apartment buildings; their mood went without saying, even happier than the homeowners. There were also several families in difficulty who were actually arranged with jobs and entered the company you mentioned.

"Chairman Zhou!"

"Tang Zong!"

"Zhang Zong!"

"Chairman Zhou!"

"..."

Seeing Zhou Andong and the others, everyone greeted them enthusiastically.

Zhou Andong and Tang Lin waved with smiles, and even Zhang Zuo, this idiot, seemed like a different person, with a very strong aura of a president, responding with "hmm" and "ah" all the way.

Several people came to the entrance of the east alley and saw a man riding a bicycle over, then propping the bike at the entrance of the toilet and running in hurriedly.

Zhou Andong saw a large bag tied to the back rack of the bicycle, containing tools like root cutters, gray boards, spirit levels, etc., and knew that the person who ran into the toilet was a worker under Liu Zhanyong.

"Have you reported the construction of the underground garage?"

"I have!" Tang Lin nodded: "But the procedures will take more than ten days to come down, we can start construction first."

"Hmm!" Zhou Andong hummed: "The residents can all move out tonight. When Liu Zhanyong comes in a while, tell him to gather manpower as soon as possible, and start the underground project first."

"Okay!" Tang Lin agreed: "It's past seven o'clock, the workers have all arrived, I estimate he'll be here soon too."

As several people were chatting, the man who ran into the toilet came out. He couldn't hold it in just now and didn't pay attention when he was in a hurry to go to the toilet.

Now that he came out feeling refreshed all over, he saw Zhou Andong and Tang Lin standing in the alley at a glance and hurried over.

"Chairman Zhou, Tang Zong, Zhang Zong!"

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "You arrived early enough!"

Tang Lin took out a cigarette and handed it to the man. The man hurriedly reached out with both hands to take it, and then answered Zhou Andong.

"Because I live relatively close, I came a bit early, and the others will be here soon too."

His words had just fallen when two more people rode bicycles, each carrying another person on the back.

Immediately after, in just over ten minutes, the workers all arrived one by one.

Zhou Andong looked at the public toilet not far away and said: "The toilet should be demolished last, otherwise the workers will have to run two miles away to go to the toilet."

"I'm hungry!" Zhang Zuo shouted, then waved his big hand: "Let's go, Brother Zuo will treat you three fools to breakfast, you pick the place."

Zhou Andong curled his lips and walked back: "Go treat the three fools you mentioned. We don't lack your few cents for breakfast."

Tang Lin let out a "heh" laugh and followed quickly.

Gu Bing snorted at Zhang Zuo: "Birds of a feather flock together; like a fool like you, you can only treat fools to a meal, we won't go."

"Damn!" Zhang Zuo cursed, raised his leg and chased after them: "The three fools I said I'd treat are you guys."

The three of them, Zhou Andong, didn't pay attention to him at all. You can say whatever you want, as if they didn't hear it, almost causing Zhang Zuo to suffer internal injuries.

When they arrived at Wenlin Alley, the workers had already started working. The walls were demolished, all the intact bricks were moved to the open space and stacked, and all the debris in the courtyard and the house had been cleaned up.

Now they were digging the foundation, and the next step was to build the courtyard wall, which was different from leaving a main gate for the clubhouse in the back.

After all, this was going to be a private kitchen, so they would make it as convenient as possible, so they would leave main gates at both the east and west alley entrances.

Zhou Andong stood at the alley entrance and looked, feeling a bit hungry.

"Let's go, let's go home and eat!"

When they returned home and entered the dining room, only Yuan Liying, Gu Minglan, and Zhou Qianyi were eating; Comrade Old Zhou was actually not there.

"Where's my dad? Why didn't he come to eat?"

Yuan Liying drank the last mouthful of porridge and put down the chopsticks in her hand: "Your dad said he wasn't hungry and would eat in a while."

The four of them, Zhou Andong, sat down, and Sister Liu immediately served them the food.

Zhou Qianyi wiped her mouth with a napkin: "Brother, what exactly are you thinking about the Woolen Mill?"

Zhou Andong lowered his head and took a bite of a steamed bun: "What do you mean what am I thinking? If you have something to say, just say it."

"I just don't quite understand." Zhou Qianyi said: "Is the Woolen Mill really that important? You have to spend energy to negotiate, and you only take ten percent of the shares. Not to mention the money, just the time wasted, I feel it's not worth it."

Zhou Andong asked with a smile: "Do you know that I am going to be the factory director of the Woolen Mill?"

"I know!" Zhou Qianyi nodded: "Aunt told me, but I feel that you being the factory director of the Woolen Mill has nothing to do with acquiring shares."

"If we were to take half or even forty percent of the Woolen Mill's shares, I could understand. Because you are the factory director, the more shares we get, the more say we have."

"But you only let me acquire ten percent. Even if we send people into the Woolen Mill to serve as directors, we won't have much say, and it won't be of much help to you."

Zhou Andong laughed: "I want ten percent of the Woolen Mill's shares, not because I want you to send people into the board of directors to help me."

Zhou Qianyi asked puzzledly: "Then what is it for?"

"You don't understand!" Zhou Andong didn't explain to Zhou Qianyi: "You continue to negotiate with them, don't worry, because someone will be more anxious than us."

"Just wait. Before I take office, there will definitely be a result. Perhaps, in these two days, the other side's negotiation team will be replaced, or even the city leaders will lead the team to negotiate with you personally." ===== CHAPTER 2233 =====
