Reborn as the richest man in India

Entering the city government building, Qiao Ge noticed that many people's eyes fell on him, and they all whispered to each other.

Not that it's a bad thing.

Since he was last invited to a dinner organized by the government, he has become quite famous among the city government.

The export of 20,000 bales of cotton has been widely circulated, and everyone can basically guess that he will earn seven to eight million this time.

It only took one month, and it always seemed a bit legendary when it happened to a 16-year-old high school student.

Especially an old father who just went bankrupt and jumped off a building.

Just like in the plot of a TV series, the son turns things around with a stroke of genius, and this happened in reality, so it is not surprising that people talk about it.

But Qiaogo also heard a little noise, and someone was muttering that he was a fool or an idiot.

The reason is that when I purchased the land in Gudauri, I paid the tax at the real price.

Qiao Ge didn't expect that this matter would reach the city government. It was too outrageous.

In the eyes of outsiders, my behavior really makes me feel like I am being taken advantage of and a fool.

Don’t blame others for saying that.

Daruye Thakar glanced at the people around him and said, "Why don't you hurry up and do something? What are you doing around here?"

So, the group of people dispersed and returned to their posts.

Takar turned his head and glanced at Qiaogo, motioning for him to follow.

He disliked Qiao Ge, a low-caste Vaishya.

But he also knew in his heart that he was very jealous of Qiao Ge.

Early this morning for some unknown reason, there was a rumor that this guy didn't pay a low price for the land he purchased, and paid hundreds of thousands of rupees more in taxes.

Is there anyone more stupid than this?

But the more this happened, the more jealous he felt. It was because this guy came in with money too quickly and easily, so he didn't cherish it.

Why wasn't it my turn?

Qiaogo actually knew where Bosh's office was, but he had someone to lead the way, so he couldn't just walk around and could only follow Takar.

When he arrived at Bosh's office, he found that he had been called away by the administrator, so Qiaogo could only sit outside the office and wait. Thakar did not leave, but also sat aside.

The office of Bombay Magistrate Teddy Faga.

Bosh was standing in front of Fajia, reporting with a smile. Fajia laughed from time to time, and seemed to be in a very good mood.

"Twenty thousand bales of cotton is not a small amount. Are those cotton merchants stable?" Fajia stopped laughing and asked.

"It's not just them, the parade has almost cooled down. After all, the news has spread, and the dock workers have begun to wait and see." Bosh replied respectfully, "But if we don't take other actions next, I'm afraid the strike parade will Will come back.”

Fajia shook his head slightly, this was where he had a headache now.

Qiaogo's purchase of 20,000 bales of cotton in the past two days bought him and the Bombay government a little time, but that was all, treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Of course, he still admires this young man Qiao Ge. At a young age, he single-handedly went to the Chinese to do business, and he was allowed to do it.

"So, I have to divert everyone's attention." Fajia pondered for a moment and said, "I am going to give Qiao Ge a nomination for this year's Bombay Outstanding Contribution Award."

"This?" Bosh hesitated and asked, "Is it too much? Qiao Ge has made contributions, but compared with the standard of outstanding contribution, it is probably difficult to even touch it. Even if it is a candidate nomination, I am afraid that the following It will be very interesting.”

The Mumbai Outstanding Contribution Award is an honor given by the government to citizens who have made outstanding contributions. There will be no more than three awardees in a year, and sometimes there may be none.

The recipients enjoy some privileges in Mumbai, such as being able to meet with administrators and other senior officials directly without making an appointment, tax benefits, etc.

Even if it is just a candidate nomination, there will be many benefits, such as increasing visibility and so on.

However, this outstanding contribution cannot be achieved by exporting 20,000 bales of cotton. It cannot be obtained even by exporting 200,000 bales of cotton.

"It's good to have opinions." Fajia said with a smile, "The same words can at least attract a lot of people's attention. Besides, Qiao Ge has such achievements at a young age, which helps us relieve a lot of pressure. Special treatment in special times. , the standard can be lowered, I am wondering if I can ask him to do another favor, if he has the courage, then it is not impossible to get the Outstanding Contribution Award."

Bosh was silent. Of course it was the administrator who made the final decision on this kind of thing. If the administrator said it was okay, then it would be okay. He would definitely not object.

Even if there are people below who have different opinions, most of them can only complain in private.

As for asking Qiao Ge to do another favor?

Bosh didn't know what was going on. How else could Qiaogo help?

This job is definitely not easy. For Qiao Ge to win this award, even if the standard is lowered, it is definitely not easy for a 16-year-old boy.

It's just that there are some things that the administrator won't tell him and it's hard for him to ask more questions. He must have been prepared for it.

"Isn't Qiao Ge here yet? I'm very curious that he paid taxes at the actual price when he purchased the factory land. It's puzzling. I really want to hear his thoughts." Fajia put aside his worries and asked.

Early this morning, he heard someone talking about Qiao Ge in the official residence. When he learned about it, he was surprised, so he asked Bosh to contact Qiao Ge. He wanted to ask personally.

The matter has spread through the Mumbai government system.

"It should be soon." Bosh looked at his watch, "Sir, I will go back first. If Qiao Ge arrives, I will bring him over immediately."

Fajia shook his head slightly.

Bosh came out of the administrator's office and walked towards his own office.

Qiaogo waited for more than ten minutes, but Bosh didn't come back.

It's not that he can't wait, but he is thinking about what Bosh has to do with him. It should be about cotton export. He has already contacted Zhao Rui about this matter, and it can be shipped on the day they leave Mumbai. .

As for the hair, Bosh didn't take the hair trade seriously because the quantity was incomparable to that of cotton.

So apart from these two things, Qiaogo couldn't think of anything else.

While he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Ketu? Why are you here?" Qiao Ge saw Ketu coming with a clerk.

Ketu looked so nervous that he couldn't even walk easily.

When he came to Qiao Ge, he was speechless.

He was too nervous.

The first time he entered the official residence of the city government, in the past he was basically the Dharavi slum and the port terminal, two points and one line. Even if he came, he would not dare to get close, and could only look at the gate of the official residence from a distance.

It's just that this time he had something important to see Qiao Ge. He heard from his sister that Qiao Ge was here, so he had no choice but to come here.

Fortunately, when he talked about looking for Qiao Ge, a clerk from the city government kindly brought him over. After all, Qiao Ge is now quite famous.

"Don't be anxious, speak slowly." Qiao Ge said, "Take a deep breath and calm down."

Ketu calmed down for a moment, thinking about what he had come to say, and couldn't help but said anxiously: "Master, have Gal and Jiajiem been arrested?"

"Caught for what? Caught by whom?" Qiao Ge was startled.

"They were arrested by the Hedala Police Station." Ketu's attention was focused on this, so his speech became much smoother. "The police said they gathered a crowd to fight, but in fact it was Jiha Shah. Damn, he has connections in the police station and found someone to arrest Jajem and Gal.”
