"That won't work. You're already very tired from working outside. How can I ask you to cook when you just get back?" Han Juan insisted.

"I'll stew chicken with ginseng to nourish you, and fry a fish, and have some sweet and sour pork ribs, which is Nuonuo's favorite. I'll also make some cold dishes and a plate of peanuts. Mom is in a good mood today, so I'll drink with you. That's it."

After saying that, Han Juan walked towards the kitchen and kicked Lin Dong: "Why are you still standing there? Go and prepare the fish."

the next day...

When Zhou Qi arrived at the office, Zhang Gongzheng was already there.

After not seeing him for many days, Zhou Qi was shocked by Zhang Gongzheng's appearance - he had lost a lot of weight and looked like a completely different person. But his mental state was still good, just as Lin Ruixue had said before.

"Brother Chuan, looking at your expression, are you feeling sorry for me?" Zhang Gongzheng said jokingly.

"A little bit." Zhou Qi handed him a cigarette.

"Have I put so much pressure on you? To push yourself to this point?"

"If you don't give your all and strive for the best when doing anything, then what's the point?" Zhang Gongzheng replied with a smile.

Zhang Gongzheng winked at Zhou Qi and said with a smile: "Brother Qi, I recently beat Defu again. Whether it is expanding the market or retaining customers, he is not as good as me.

If you have time, you should come and see our shop. It is so neat and tidy, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Even Old Lu would give us a thumbs up if he saw it.”

"We have to be professional in what we do," Zhang Gongzheng continued.

"No matter what, I can't embarrass you, Brother Qi."

Zhou Qi was very satisfied with the work of Zhang Gongzheng and Ma Yuancai. Although he did not personally manage the details of Hualong Electric, Qiao Xueying had already reported in detail.

The rapid expansion of the market previously brought some problems, but thanks to the efforts of Lu Jia, Zhang Gongzheng and Ma Yuancai, these problems have been solved.

It is indeed not easy to achieve such results in such a short time.

In order to recognize their contributions, Zhou Qi was generous and provided them with the highest level of welfare benefits in the company, putting them on an equal footing with Qiao Xueying and Lu Jia.

"Hualong Electric is basically stable now. You two have worked hard during this period. I plan to give you a vacation. If you want to travel anywhere, take your family with you. I will cover all the expenses."

Zhou Qi said to Zhang Gongzheng with a smile.

"The most important thing is that you need to regain some weight. You are now as thin as a bamboo pole and will fall down if the wind blows."

"It's not that exaggerated. I only lost about 20 pounds." Zhang Gongzheng said with a smile.

"I think this is very handsome. I couldn't control my mouth when I wanted to lose weight before. This is a good thing."

"Okay, stop joking. What do you want to talk to me about?" Zhou Qi asked.

Speaking of business, Zhang Gongzheng perked up, put out the cigarette in his hand, leaned forward and said, "Brother Qi, do you know there is a piece of wasteland over at Beiqiao? Walk two kilometers east from our third factory, and then half a mile ahead is my father's grain depot."

Zhou Qi nodded. He knew that place. There used to be some residential areas there, but people moved away later. Now it was deserted and there was not even a light at night. Occasionally someone would pass by during the day, but no one dared to go there at night.

"Are you planning to take over that piece of land?" Zhou Qi asked.

"It's not me who wants to, it's my father's granary that wants to." Zhang Gongzheng explained.

"They plan to buy the land and build a residential building for employees. There will be discounts for employees, and they can also make money by selling it to outsiders."

"But there is no problem building three or four buildings there, so I was thinking whether I could contract it and expand the scale," Zhang Gongzheng continued.

"The grain depot has special approval. If I can inject capital and expand the building scale, it will also be good for land planning, and the government should support it."

"And with the support of the granary, there is no need to worry about selling the house. This is definitely a great opportunity." Zhang Gongzheng said confidently.

Zhou Qi nodded. "That's a good idea. With your current financial strength, you can do it."

"Now that you've made up your mind, just do it." Zhou Qi encouraged.

"Do you need my help?"

Zhang Gongzheng said with a smile: "Brother Chuan, of course I would think of you first when something good happens. Besides, without your support, I would not be able to make it."

"You're welcome." Zhou Qi chuckled.

"You want to use the reputation of Hualong Real Estate to successfully win this project, right? If you need me to speak up and get the grain depot to accept your investment, then I can help you speak up."

Zhang Gongzheng's current assets are close to 10 million yuan, so it is not a problem for him to build a few buildings in the county town. However, for some things, money alone is not enough, and the support of connections and background is also needed.

The national grain warehouse is publicly owned, so the construction of the residential building is naturally funded by the state, and it is impossible to accept private investment. But Hualong Real Estate Company is different.

Hualong purchased land on the banks of the Huangpu River in Haishi for 1 billion yuan, and its partner in Nanyue, Hualong Teng'ao, received investment from Hong Kong businessmen.

These two achievements have made Hualong famous in the country, and its strength should not be underestimated.

More importantly, Hualong has the first-level real estate development qualification, which is very valuable for a small county.

Therefore, the local government naturally strongly supports the introduction of such enterprises.

Through official channels, it becomes reasonable for local units such as grain depots to inject funds into the project. After completion, these buildings will have the characteristics of semi-public and semi-private.

In other words, Hualong obtained state-related projects through clever means rather than through public bidding.

It is equivalent to hanging a "gold medal" sign. Although the current plot of land may not be eye-catching, with this sign, the house will definitely be easy to sell.

"Brother Qi, I didn't mean to keep you in suspense. You guessed it before I even finished speaking." Zhang Gongzheng said with a smile.

"This project is pretty good. Even though it may not mean much to you, we should also make some contribution to our hometown."

"I will provide the funds." Zhang Gongzheng continued.

"I am not using Hualong's name for free. I will give you 20% of the profits. We brothers should also make the accounts clear."

"Brother Qi, you don't have to be so polite." Zhou Qi smiled and replied: "I think... it's not very good."

Bad? How can such a good project be bad?

Zhang Gongzheng said anxiously: "Brother Qi, such a good opportunity is rare. If we want to take it, others can't snatch it from us. It's like a pile of money lying there, waiting for us to take it. I..."

Zhou Qi raised his hand to stop him: "Let's not talk about this for now. I want to ask you, if you really succeed, what are you going to do?"

"It's very simple." Zhang Gongzheng replied.

"Wasn't it me who was responsible for building the office building for the third factory? This time it's just a little bigger in scale, I can still handle it."

"This is the key." Zhou Qi looked directly at Zhang Gongzheng and said.

“Hualong’s goal is to become a top domestic real estate brand. Wouldn’t it be a waste of the first-class development qualification to build some ordinary buildings under its name?

Moreover, Hualong has just won the project on the Huangpu River. Now it should focus on development. Do you think it is worthwhile to distract attention for a small project? It is not a wise investment to only see the immediate benefits without long-term planning. "
