Chapter 1141 Are you sure?
In a private room on the second floor of Zhangji Private Kitchen, Wei Qing and Tan Zongming sat facing each other.
“Mr. Ye, I sincerely hope you can carefully consider my proposal. I guess you bought that land back then hoping it would appreciate in value after development, right? Now we are acquiring it for 50 million, and your capital has increased twentyfold in just a few years, which is quite a lot!” Tan Zongming said with a sincere expression.
"Have you investigated this thoroughly?" Wei Qing didn't answer, but looked at Tan Zongming and asked.
“To be honest, this land has been eyed by several real estate companies, and even larger ones want to develop it. But Mr. Ye, please believe me, our family is the most sincere!” Tan Zongming said.
"Then tell me your plans!" Wei Qing said with a smile.
“Mr. Ye, your plot of land is not of regular age, but fortunately it is large enough, a full eight acres. We can develop it into a complex of commercial office buildings and hotels! The Pearl Tower, which is not far away, is under construction and is almost completed. It will definitely become a landmark building in Shanghai. We don’t need to compete with it. We just need to take advantage of its convenience!” Tan Zongming said with a smile.
"An office building and a hotel combination? Are you sure you can make money? After all, the land is small, so you can only build high-rises! What benefits would I get? Do you think I'm someone who's short of money?" Wei Qing said with a smile.
“Mr. Ye, your wife and Ye Jinyan’s Jingyan Real Estate are limited by funds and simply don’t have the capacity to develop this land. If they just build a few residential buildings, it would be a complete waste! So, I think your cooperation with us is the best choice! If you don’t want cash, then we can cooperate! You provide the land, and we provide the funds. I would be even more happy if we could set up a company together!” Tan Zongming said with a smile.
They had also investigated Mr. Ye in front of them. Although they didn't know why Zhao, the deputy commander, had the surname Ye, it didn't prevent him from having powerful connections!
Tan Zongming would be overjoyed if he could bring this person into his company!
"Forget about that. My status doesn't allow me to join any company! You should find another offer!" Wei Qing shook his head with a smile.
"What are Mr. Ye's conditions? You can name them if you wish!" Tan Zongming said confidently.
“My wife has shares in Jingyan Group, so you can cooperate on this project. You can also cooperate with Boss Bao’s company! As for myself, all I need is for the Tan family to give me 40 million yuan worth of real estate!” Wei Qing said with a smile.
Although the price was ten million less, it was worth it to get Jingyan Group and Boss Bao to participate in this project!
Moreover, according to my father's estimation, Shanghai's real estate market will be booming for a long time to come! Not to mention future demolitions or developments, the appreciation of the houses alone will bring in more than ten million yuan in profit!
"You're so optimistic about real estate projects?" Tan Zongming asked, somewhat surprised.
“Hehe, isn’t it obvious? Otherwise, why would I have bought land in Puxi years ago? Even though it’s right by the Huangpu River!” Wei Qing said, looking at Tan Zongming.
Tan Zongming also realized that, according to his understanding, the original transaction price for these eight acres of land was less than eight million!
But after only a few years, I'm going to spend 50 million to buy it back? Isn't that just because they have a keen eye?
"I need to go back and discuss this with my family! I hope Mr. Ye can give our family some time, after all, this involves cooperating with two unrelated companies!" Tan Zongming said with a serious expression.
"No problem, let's think about it. It's only right to have a meeting, after all, this project may require your Tan family to pay a heavy price!" Wei Qing said with a smile.
Tan Zongming froze on the spot upon hearing Wei Qing's words!
"Mr. Ye seems to know our Tan family very well!" Tan Zongming said, composing himself.
"Not just you, I know everyone in the Qilin Society!" Wei Qing said with a smile.
"Alright, let's eat first today!" Upon hearing this, Tan Zongming immediately felt there was no need to hide it anymore, so he quickly invited Wei Qing to eat first.
That evening, Wei Qing told Dai Qian about his meeting with Tan Zongming.
"Wei Qing, you want Jingyan Group to cooperate with the Tan family? Then why bring A Bao along?" Daisy asked curiously.
"Of course, it's to make you less conspicuous! No matter what, someone with ulterior motives can easily find out about our relationship, so we need to reduce your visibility!" Wei Qing said.
"And to be honest, the money you work your butt off to earn might not necessarily come from the appreciation of your property!" Wei Qing said after thinking for a moment.
"What do you mean?" Daisy was confused.
"You know our little courtyard in Beiping, right?" Wei Qing asked.
“Of course, it’s our home after all. Although we can only live there and can’t buy or sell it on our own, it’s still better than our little building on Huanghe Road!” Daisy said.
“Wei Yu called me yesterday and said someone wants to buy that courtyard. Do you know how much they’re asking for?” Wei Qing asked with a smile.
"How much?" He really didn't know. Although she was also in real estate, he had never really thought about courtyard houses in Beiping.
“When Dad bought that courtyard house, it cost a thousand yuan. Even with repairs and renovations, it didn’t come down to two thousand. But yesterday, Wei Yu said that someone is willing to offer 150,000 yuan to buy the courtyard house!” Wei Qing said with emotion.
"That's a huge difference?" Daisy asked, somewhat surprised.
Two thousand turned into one hundred and fifty thousand? Isn't that a bit too exaggerated? That's more than a piece of land in Shanghai!
"Now you know why Dad has been buying houses all these years, right?" Wei Qing said with a smile.
“My father-in-law has such good taste!” Daisy exclaimed.
"So I'd rather forgo ten million and get the Tan family to contribute some of their properties in Pudong! Getting you and Abao into the project would be a win-win situation!" Wei Qing helped Daisy sit on his lap, and the two leaned on each other as they talked.
The atmosphere at the Tan family, however, was much more somber. Tan Zongming was only the third-generation heir of the Tan family, but now, not to mention the second generation, even the first generation was still alive and well.
Therefore, Tan Zongming still has a long way to go if he wants to rise to power.
"A property worth forty million, this Mr. Ye is really something." Tan Zongming's grandfather is also a living legend in the Tan family.
He's the one who started from scratch and built the Tan family into what it is today! The old man is over eighty years old, but he's still very healthy!
"Grandpa, should we agree to these conditions?" Tan Zongming asked.
"What if you don't agree? Do you think you can get that land if you don't agree?" the Tan family head said irritably.
