Chapter 929

For the next two days, he needed to make a trip back to Shangjun County. Firstly, to meet with Hou Guangbi to discuss the BOT project for the Changjiangdaqiao; secondly, he wanted to buy a private house by Zhong Ming Lake. Some time ago, he had entrusted Xu Haimin to help him find out if there were any houses for sale. Xu Haimin had already found a seller, but Su Xinghui was temporarily short on funds, and he did not want to borrow money from Xu Haimin again, so the matter had been left on hold.

Now that Su Xinghui had money on hand, he could go back and finalize the house purchase. He had once promised Lu Xiaoya that he would buy a private house by Zhong Ming Lake to serve as their future marital home. Naturally, he could not break his promise to Lu Xiaoya, and besides, the sooner he bought the house, the cheaper it would be; in the future, houses by the lake would be very valuable.

At this time, buying a private house by the lake would cost at most twenty or thirty thousand yuan. He brought nearly fifty thousand yuan back; besides buying the house, the remaining money would be used for renovations and interior decoration.

It was also because banks were too inconvenient nowadays; his passbook account was opened at the Pengjiawan branch, so he could not withdraw money in the county seat. Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to bring cash back—how convenient would it be to just carry a passbook or a card? It was a pity that things like cards did not exist yet.

Returning to the township government, Su Xinghui made a phone call to Yu Ruizhi from his office. As soon as Yu Ruizhi heard Su Xinghui's voice, he laughed: "What is it? Xinghui, do you have something to ask me?"

Su Xinghui said: "Brother Yu, are you still at Meng Hu Ling?"

Yu Ruizhi said: "That's right, there are some matters here that need me to handle."

Su Xinghui said: "Then when are you returning to Jingcheng?"

Yu Ruizhi thought for a moment and said: "Probably in another two or three days. Why? Are you wanting to go to Jingcheng with me to have some fun?"

Yu Ruizhi was originally joking, but he didn't expect Su Xinghui to say: "Yes, I have something I need to go to Jingcheng for."

Yu Ruizhi said happily: "That's great! When the time comes, you can take my car back to Jingcheng. Once we get to Jingcheng, I'll treat you to a good drink. By the way, what business do you have to attend to in Jingcheng?"

Su Xinghui said: "It's hard to explain in a word or two over the phone. Let's talk once we meet."

Yu Ruizhi said: "That works. Let's talk when we meet. Do you need my help? If you need my help, just say the word. As long as it's not something earth-shattering, I can help, and even if it is earth-shattering, I can find someone to help you."

Yu Ruizhi really wasn't boasting. With the status of Elder Yu, what could be considered a major difficulty in Jingcheng? Su Xinghui had originally intended to ask for his help when making this call. In Jingcheng, he did have some connections, but what connection could compare to the Yu family's?

Su Xinghui laughed: "I reckon I really will have to ask for your help, Brother Yu, when the time comes. Since you've already agreed, I'll thank you in advance!"

Yu Ruizhi said: "Why are you being so polite? Who are we to each other?"

Su Xinghui said: "Then give me a call when you go to Jingcheng, and I'll wait for you at our township government."

Yu Ruizhi said: "Fine, I'll call you then."
