Chapter 1928

Mi Xiuyuan smiled, "Then let's build another medical equipment manufacturing base. And in terms of real estate, we can also invest. With Xinghui here, I am still very optimistic about the prospects of the local real estate industry. By the way, Xinghui, next time my father and the others come, they will also bring some overseas Chinese businessmen. If there are suitable industries, they will also invest here."

Su Xinghui nodded and smiled, "Then thank you all."

Mi Xiuyuan said, "These overseas Chinese businessmen were able to keep their property because of you, and they also made a small profit. Being able to escape this disaster, their gratitude to you is beyond words. If they don't come here to thank you in person, how can they be at peace?"

The overseas Chinese businessmen Mi Xiuyuan mentioned come from countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. They have a very good relationship with the Mi family and the Xie family. Before the Asian financial crisis, the Mi family and the Xie family reminded them, and they also tried their best to cash out their assets and participated in this action against international speculators.

In this action, the funds they invested also greatly appreciated. Although their real estate still shrank significantly in the storm, the two offset each other, and their total assets still rose slightly, which was enough for them to thank Su Xinghui.

You know, in these countries, I don't know how many big businessmen's assets have shrunk significantly. Some businessmen whose main business is finance have almost gone bankrupt. The assets they have accumulated for decades have vanished in an instant, which made these Chinese businessmen break out in a cold sweat. Only then did they know how lucky they were to be able to escape this disaster.

When they learned from the Mi family and the Xie family that the person who reminded them this time was Su Xinghui, they all wanted to come and thank Su Xinghui in person. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, but Su Xinghui's great kindness to them saved many lives in their families. Not repaying such great kindness does not conform to the values of these very traditional Chinese people.

Xie Junqiang also nodded and said, "Yes, Xinghui, you have accumulated great merit this time. I don't know how many people want to thank you!"

Su Xinghui waved his hand and said, "Alright, I just gave a reminder. You were the ones who actually operated it. If you want to talk about accumulating merit, you have also accumulated a lot."

Han Xiang Dong said, "We have all made a lot of money this time. It seems that we should donate more money to Sister Sister Ruoqiu's charity foundation to accumulate some merit."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu smiled, "Then thank you all. Xinghui asked me to prepare more flood control and disaster relief supplies. If you donate money, I can prepare them."

Everyone nodded and agreed to donate to her foundation. Su Xinghui was very gratified. In the past two years, Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu had prepared a lot of flood control and disaster relief supplies such as tents, sacks, clothing, medicine, food, and drinking water. The reserve was getting larger and larger, and things like medicine, food, and drinking water were replaced regularly.

Now that they have donated a large sum of money to Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu's foundation, Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu can prepare more, which can be considered an extra layer of protection for the upcoming major flood.

Everyone talked and talked, and Yu Ruizhi asked Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, when do you plan to bring Xiaoya and the child over?"

Su Xinghui said, "The house here is not ready yet. I can probably bring Xiaoya over next week."

Yu Ruizhi said, "Alright, I will send a car to pick them up then. You should keep that Mercedes-Benz here for your use."

Su Xinghui pondered for a moment and nodded. It is necessary to keep a car here. Sometimes when there is an emergency, he also needs to use a car. He has now set a system strictly prohibiting the use of public cars for private purposes, and he must abide by it himself.

Su Xinghui said, "Everyone has come from so far away, so go and rest early. Starting tomorrow, we will have things to do."

The next day, the Chongjin County embankment renovation project was announced to the public for bidding. Haimin Construction Company and the Mi Group's construction company also quickly moved into Chongjin County, preparing to participate in the bidding meeting to be held in Chongjin County in half a month, but they had already begun to make preliminary preparations.

They transported a large amount of construction machinery and a large amount of construction materials from other places. Chongjin County is close to the river, so it still has its advantages in transportation. It only takes a day or two for them to transport these materials by ship from Jiangcheng and other places, which are only tens or hundreds of kilometers upstream.

After transporting these construction machinery and construction materials, and mobilizing personnel, they can immediately invest in the project after the bidding is over. The workload of this project is quite large, but the construction period is very tight, with at most a little more than half a year, so they cannot waste a single day.

Su Xinghui handed over all the bidding for the embankment renovation project to Nie Xin. On this point, he has always adhered to the principle of not doubting the person he uses and not using the person he doubts. Since Nie Xin is now following him, he will vigorously delegate power.

He is not worried that Nie Xin will do anything in it, because the investors and the winning bidders will be his friends. What can Nie Xin do?

On this day, Su Xinghui called Bi Guoxin, the deputy county magistrate in charge of industry, transportation, and urban construction, to his office. He wanted to talk to Bi Guoxin to determine whether to hand over those more important tasks to him. If Bi Guoxin is willing to cooperate with his work, that would be great. If he is unwilling to cooperate with his work, Su Xinghui will directly intervene in these tasks, and even not hesitate to change someone else.

Bi Guoxin is in his forties this year. He has been in charge of industry, transportation, and urban construction for several years, but these tasks in Chongjin County have never improved. Let alone industry, before, almost none of the state-owned enterprises and collectively-owned enterprises in Chongjin County were good. Now they are either bankrupt or half-dead. Introducing investment has also yielded no results. Only a few small factories are operating, and their contribution to industrial GDP is limited.

As for transportation, this is a purely money-spending job. If you have money, you can repair the roads. If you don't have money, the roads can only be repaired and patched, and it is impossible to repair them thoroughly. Perhaps he manages the water transport terminals the most. Chongjin County is close to the river, and water transport is quite developed.

And urban construction work has also had no results in recent years. First, there is no long-term vision in planning. Most of the new buildings built in recent years are dormitory buildings for various units, all piled up in the old city, making the old city more and more crowded. As for the new city, that is something you dare not even think about. How much funding would that require?
