Chapter 1629 We still need to find a way to make money
When Han Li saw the area that Anita Koch had drawn with a pen, and now saw the units marked on it, he felt a sense of relief, thinking, "He really is the one that God loves the most."

This plot of land is located in Wong Chuk Hang, in the southwest corner of Heung Kong Island, south of the Ap Lei Chau Bridge.

South of the convent on Wai Fook Road, west of Deep Bay Road, and north of the Wan Chai Police Station in Hong Kong, this area of ​​land near the bay, including part of the bay in front, was all "inherited" from Elliot Owen of the Chief Secretary's Office.

Currently, only two piers have been built in this area. Due to the depth of the bay and certain regulations, only large yachts and small cargo ships can be docked here.

This bay is a natural semi-indented harbor. To the east is Nam Long Shan in Wong Chuk Hang, to the west is Yu Gui Shan in Ap Lei Chau, and to the north is a 7-shaped bend in the bay. It is only one nautical mile (1.85 kilometers) south that one can enter the East Lamma Channel.

The geographical structure to the east, south, west, and north provides this bay with an excellent natural barrier, and even the strongest winds and typhoons lose much of their power here. It can be said that this is one of the best ship berthing areas in Hong Kong.

If this bay were developed to its full potential, the berths could accommodate at least a hundred yachts of various sizes. Of course, the number of marinas would also need to be expanded to seven or eight.

The only drawback is that the power plant of Shanghai Port Lighting Co., Ltd. in Ap Lei Chau is too polluting, and dust from coal combustion still drifts over from across the bay.

However, the power plant on Lamma Island was already under construction in 78, and it is estimated that the power plant here will be moved there soon, so this is not a major drawback.

Hong Kong Lighting?

power plant?
Is this Mr. Li's future cash cow?

Han Li stared at the map, and after thinking about something, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

"The actions of certain individuals later revealed that they didn't deserve this cash cow; they tried to intercept it and make it serve their own purposes."

The temptation of this golden goose that could lay eggs indefinitely was too great. Although Han Li was not short of money, he lacked a legitimate way to make money.

After this thought popped into his head, Han Li's eyes turned slightly red as he looked at the map.

However, Han Li ultimately forced himself to temporarily put this idea out of his mind, because this was not something that could be easily accomplished.

First of all, Han Li doesn't have enough money right now, and he needs to get enough money to achieve his goal.

If Han Li remembered correctly, the businessman surnamed Li spent 2.9 billion to acquire Hong Kong Electric. He didn't know if there were any other hidden conditions involved.

Furthermore, the fact that the businessman surnamed Li was able to produce 2.9 billion in cash in such a short time indicates that the other party had long been eyeing Hong Kong Electric.

If Han Li wants to intervene in the acquisition of Hong Kong Electric, with multiple parties bidding, 2.9 billion will probably not be enough. He will need to prepare at least 3.5 billion to have a chance of winning.

Even with the current loopholes in financial management and Han Li's cheat-like abilities, obtaining such a large sum of money would not be an easy task.

Most importantly, such a large transaction involving such a well-known industry cannot be conducted through a secret "back market" method; it's not a small-scale purchase of wild mountains, wasteland, or houses.

If things go wrong, Han Li might be exposed to the public spotlight. Given the ruthlessness of Hong Kong paparazzi, this could cause him a lot of unnecessary trouble, and might even affect his position as a lecturer at Hong Kong University. After all, people as good-looking and perfect as him are rare. Han Li's biggest aversion in life is exposing his life to the public eye; that would reduce his happiness index by at least half.

Han Li didn't want his two identities to be scrutinized, linked, or even exposed, because the consequences would be too great, far beyond what he could bear.

Therefore, Han Li had to temporarily suppress this idea unless he was absolutely certain of success.

Getting back to the point, after Han Li put aside his previous thoughts, he looked at the maps again and felt much calmer.

On the plot of land that Elliot Owen wants to sell, there are currently only a few unconnected buildings, one of which is where Elliot Owen usually stays when he goes out to sea in his boat.
Another building is now leased to a yacht club in Hong Kong, which not only sells and rents yachts of all sizes, but also helps people obtain yacht licenses.

This perfectly fulfilled Han Li's recent desire to get a yacht driving license and take the Chung sisters on a sea trip.

Next, Han Li learned about the land in detail from Anita Koch, and after confirming that there were no other problems, he expressed his willingness to buy it.

Anita Koch was overjoyed that Han Li, her sugar daddy, had earned her another commission, and kept assuring her that she would definitely help push the price down to the lowest possible level.

However, Anita Koch was clearly celebrating too soon. Han Li knew that during the Sino-British talks, it was the cheapest and best time for him to acquire land in Hong Kong on a large scale.

Otherwise, once the talks between the two countries conclude, the British royal family, the House of Lords, and those who own land in Hong Kong will soon introduce a series of measures and regulations to drain Hong Kong's potential.

Land prices soared and housing prices skyrocketed, emptying the last penny from the pockets of Hong Kong residents and leaving them with decades of unpayable debts. In the end, that Iron Lady would still shamelessly say...

"England has never taken a single penny from Hong Kong; everything we do there is for the benefit of the people of Hong Kong."

Therefore, if Han Li wants to acquire as much land in Hong Kong as possible, the next two years are the most crucial time. Otherwise, even if he manages to acquire more land, he will need to spend many times more money.

That's why, after Anita Koch finished being happy, Han Li spoke with a cold expression and a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Miss Anita, I wonder when the Hong Kong government will approve my request for those wild mountains, wastelands, and islands."

If you can't resolve this matter in a short time, then I'll have to consider investing the funds I originally intended to use for land purchases into other businesses.

In business, the worst thing is having capital sitting idle. Only circulating money can generate more profit, and I believe you understand that.

After Han Li finished speaking, Anita Koch immediately said that she would do her best to facilitate the commission in the shortest possible time.

Han Li simply responded with a single sentence, and the two ended their conversation.

However, as Anita Koch walked out of the café, she was already thinking about which Englishman she would meet that night, and what clothes and stockings she should wear.
