The Super Rich: Start from when the family business is about to go bankrupt!

Chapter 701 Another Test for WPG? No Solo Devouring! Xia Yuqing's High EQ and Exile to Africa! Siberia!

While Xia Yuqing was dealing with relatives in her hometown, Hou Yuanxin, Sha Yantao, Li Shiyu, and Zhu Guanghao were also busy, having begun to advance the Tianjingyan New Town project.

The first step was the change of land use designation; this was the beginning of the plan!
Only when the corresponding land use is changed to residential land can it be used for real estate development.

At this point, the four members of Shengqing Circle silently pondered a question: Had An Wuyang left them any room to maneuver?
For example, what is the size of the new urban area, and how should the land outside the new urban area be handled?
After all, assuming the new urban area is operational, the surrounding land prices will definitely rise. So, will An Wuyang leave the profits from this land appreciation to them, or will there be other circumstances?
Faced with this problem, Li Shiyu finally came up with an effective suggestion: first, reserve a large piece of land, then inform An Wuyang about the land's condition, and finally let An Wuyang make the decision.

"Don't worry, everyone. Given Brother Wuyang's generous nature, he definitely won't keep all the profits from this land appreciation for himself!" Li Shiyu assured him.

Li Shiyu's confidence stemmed from An Wuyang's past conduct and attitude. How could An Wuyang possibly monopolize the mere benefits of land appreciation?

The four members of Shengqing Circle agreed on the change of land use, and then began to discuss the distribution plan for the small cake.

An Wuyang shared all the building material suppliers, decoration material suppliers, and decoration projects with the four of them, giving them the power to divide the pie.

But how to divide the cake became a new problem!

Before dividing the cake, everyone agrees on one key point: dividing the cake is fine, but it must be done in a way that ensures everyone's interests are not harmed.

After all, in the Tianjingyan New Town project, the four of them, representing Shengqing Circle, held a stake of up to 80%!
In view of this, whether it is a building materials supplier or a decoration materials supplier, they must ensure the quality of the materials and prohibit the use of inferior materials.

This kind of thing is all too common in the construction industry!
Secondly, the renovation team must strictly control the quality of the project to avoid problems.

After all, once the Tianjingyan New Town is established, it will provide a three-year after-sales guarantee, and the corresponding property management company will likely fall into their hands and be put into operation.

In order to protect their own interests while also distributing the spoils to win over their subordinates, the four members of Shengqing Circle were busy during the Chinese New Year.

……

Tieshan Scenic Area, Xia Yuqing's maternal grandmother's house.

The family banquet began at noon.

Xia Yuqing sat down next to her grandmother, Zhu Xiaoying. After the dishes had been served, her aunt, Lin Xi, raised her glass and toasted Xia Yuqing, saying, "Qingqing, Happy New Year!"

Xia Yuqing raised her glass without refusing, but she drank mineral water.

As a dance student, she maintains excellent self-discipline, so how could she possibly drink alcohol?
Even if we were to drink, it would be with An Wuyang, to add some fun.

My second aunt, Lin Yue, followed suit and offered a toast.

After the two toasted each other, Aunt Lin Xi spoke first, "Qingqing, do you still remember your older cousin?"

Before Xia Yuqing could respond, Lin Xi continued, "Your older cousin is twenty-six years old this year. He and his girlfriend have been dating for three years and are now considering marriage."

"Although we don't have the custom of bride price in Shengqing, having a car and a house is still a basic requirement," Lin Xi explained.

"Your older cousin's girlfriend has her eye on a house, but it's a bit expensive, costing over two million yuan. My wife and I don't have enough savings, so we'd like to borrow some money from you," Lin Xi added.

Lin Xi and Lin Yue had previously asked Xia Yuqing for money, but Xia Yuqing refused.

Lin Xi is now using the excuse that her older cousin needs to get married and buy a house to borrow money. In most large families, this is a reason that is actually hard to refuse.

But Xia Yuqing refused last time, so how could she possibly agree this time?

However, there is an art to refusing!
Xia Yuqing patiently inquired, "How much money does Auntie want to borrow?"

“We have over 200,000 yuan on hand, and we want to borrow 2 million yuan to buy a house outright. That way, we won’t have the pressure of a loan, since mortgage interest rates are too high,” Lin Xi explained.

Xia Yuqing countered, "What kind of work does your older cousin do now?"

Lin Xi responded, "I'm working in the sales of doors and windows."

"How much money do you earn in a month?" Xia Yuqing asked more directly about her income.

After a slight hesitation, Lin Xi replied, "On average, I can barely make ten thousand yuan a month."

That's obviously bragging!

When performance is good, the monthly salary can indeed exceed 10,000 yuan, but when performance is bad, it's hard to say.

Xia Yuqing began asking pointed questions, "If I lend my cousin two million, when does he plan to pay me back?"

Lin Xi responded with slight dissatisfaction, "It's not like we won't pay it back; we'll pay it back when we have the money!"

Xia Yuqing sneered inwardly, "When will I ever have money?"

These relatives are really funny!
“I don’t have two million. I need to ask Brother Wuyang,” Xia Yuqing replied.

Actually, Xia Yuqing does!

The dividends from the Azure Fitness Center, the Shengqingxiang Hot Pot Restaurant, and the pocket money An Wuyang casually gave her brought Xia Yuqing's savings to over two million.

Xia Yuqing quickly sent a message to An Wuyang, briefly explaining the situation and asking An Wuyang to call her, saying that there was an urgent matter and she needed to come over.

Xia Yuqing originally wanted to maintain appearances and at least have a family dinner together.

But now it seems that some people don't need to be respectable!
Since there's no need for decorum, Xia Yuqing doesn't mind leaving the table halftime.

After Xia Yuqing sent the message to An Wuyang, An Wuyang called immediately, and Xia Yuqing swiped the screen to answer.

"Qingqing, come over here quickly, I need to talk to you urgently," An Wuyang said cooperatively.

Xia Yuqing immediately agreed, "Okay, Brother Wuyang, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Yuqing stood up and said, "Brother Wuyang has something urgent and asked me to come over. Aunt, I'll personally discuss the matter of you borrowing money with Brother Wuyang."

Although Xia Yuqing was leaving halfway through, she didn't completely break off relations!

If it were the Xia Yuqing of the past, she would have already disregarded all decorum and torn off all pretense of civility. However, after learning various social skills, Xia Yuqing learned to handle things tactfully.

She didn't directly refuse the job offers she had previously made to her uncle and third cousin.

When it came to borrowing money, she didn't directly refuse, but instead made a sarcastic remark about repaying the loan.

After Xia Yuqing finished speaking, she didn't wait for anyone to ask questions and immediately got up and left. The Lin family members fell silent. They were shrewd, not fools; how could they not understand Xia Yuqing's attitude?

Lin Xi looked at Lin Xin with unwavering determination, "Little sister, how much money do you have? Xu Yong in our family was forced into this situation."

Lin Xin avoided answering, saying, "Let's wait for Qingqing's news. Didn't Qingqing just say that she went to ask An herself? If An agrees, it's just a matter of two million!"

Lin Xin deliberately used the phrase "just two million" to subtly criticize her older sister!

Just how big is his face?

He asked for two million right off the bat!

And they didn't even consider repayment.

Lin Xi was naturally dissatisfied with Lin Xin's answer, but since neither Xia Yuqing nor Lin Xin had explicitly refused, Lin Xi couldn't help but harbor a little hope—what if An Wuyang agreed?
After all, for An Jia, two million is really just a 'small amount', right?

It has to be said that this is just another fantasy of the poor!

Yes!
For An Jia and Wu Gengtian, two million is nothing, but why give it to Lin Xi?

What couldn't you do with two million?
Even investing in the Five-Hour Education Assistance Program would be a good choice, so why throw it into the water?

wrong!

This is worse than throwing it into the water!
If you throw it into the water, at least you can hear the sound of water. But if you give it to Lin Xi's family, it will only raise an ingrate, and a greedy one at that.

After leaving her maternal grandmother's house, Xia Yuqing drove straight to the Wugengtian headquarters, and then took an Airbus H-225 helicopter directly to the Tianjingyan medicinal herb planting base.

Xia Yuqing was very familiar with this route; she had taken it several times before.

Around 2 p.m., Xia Yuqing arrived at the Tianjingyan medicinal herb planting base, where An Wuyang personally greeted her.

After Xia Yuqing met An Wuyang, she couldn't help but complain about the unpleasant things that happened at her grandmother's house.

She had absolutely no regard for the idea that family scandals shouldn't be aired in public!

She didn't do those shameful things, so what is there that she can't talk about?
The logic behind this statement is as if the strong never complain about their environment.
After Xia Yuqing finished recounting these shameful things, she scoffed and commented, "Asking for two million right off the bat? Ha, dream on."

Inside the office of the Tianjingyan medicinal herb planting base, An Wuyang comforted Xia Yuqing, then jokingly said, "Although I can't lend you two million, arranging jobs for your uncle and third cousin is no problem!"

"Huh?" Xia Yuqing frowned.

"My uncle is lazy, good-for-nothing, unrealistic, and always daydreaming and having wild fantasies!" Xia Yuqing snorted.

"Why are you spouting rhymes all the time?" An Wuyang teased.

"I'm worried that my uncle will cause you trouble. I didn't guarantee them I'd arrange a job for them. I'll just give them a casual answer later." Xia Yuqing made it clear that she didn't want to introduce jobs to her uncle and third cousin.

An Wuyang gently stroked Xia Yuqing's head and said with a mischievous smile, "I have some good news for you. We opened a new plantation in Nirvana, Africa, before dawn. They're growing desert aloe vera specifically for us there."

“It just so happens that we don’t know who to send as the resident representative,” An Wuyang chuckled.

The thought of going on a business trip to Africa and having to stay there for an extended period is just awful!

Regarding the desert aloe vera project, An Wuyang originally planned to let it run its course, letting the Bald Eagles do whatever they wanted, as long as they provided Wugengtian with desert aloe vera.

As for sending resident representatives there
An Wuyang really didn't know who to send!

Sending your childhood friends? That would be a rip-off, wouldn't it?
But if we send experienced employees, they are all related by marriage, and many of them have families to support. We can't just let them break up their families, can we?

Now that Xia Yuqing has brought her uncle and third cousin to her doorstep, isn't that a coincidence?
good good!
They were exiled to Africa.
wrong!

Get promoted as soon as you join!
He was also dispatched as a special overseas envoy to the Aloe Vera plantation in the desert of Nile, Africa, to serve as a resident representative.

“If your uncle and third cousin think Africa is too hot, we can arrange for them to go to Siberia in the North Bear Country. We also have a cooperative project there,” An Wuyang added.

The Siberian Cloud Fire Vine project is currently in a hands-off state. Wu Gengtian doesn't care about the project's progress at all; he only cares whether CLC Group can provide the Siberian Cloud Fire Vine on time and with guaranteed quality.

Xia Yuqing burst out laughing, "Hahaha, it's either Africa or Siberia, sounds pretty good!"

“However, I’m worried they’ll mess things up when they go to work,” Xia Yuqing said, still concerned.

An Wuyang laughed and denied it, "No, no, no, baby, they couldn't possibly mess things up!"

"Hmm?" Xia Yuqing asked, puzzled.

An Wuyang responded, "Because these things don't require us to manage and operate them around the clock. There's the CLC Group in Siberia, and Johnson Pharmaceuticals is fully responsible for operating them in Niger, Africa."

“We’ll send our local representatives over at dawn; they’re just there as mascots!” An Wuyang chuckled.

Overseas Special Representatives
It sounds plausible, but it's actually just a useless title; in short, it's a sinecure that someone is sent there on assignment.

Perhaps a more appropriate way to put it is to say, "exiled to a desolate place overseas?"

An Wuyang knew that Xia Yuqing didn't want to put him in a difficult position, but An Wuyang also didn't want to put Xia Yuqing in a difficult position. This is the beauty of love—both sides are running towards each other!
“Baby, you’ve arranged your uncle’s and third cousin’s jobs like this. If your family isn’t satisfied, there’s nothing else you can do. After all, you’ve already arranged the jobs, right?” An Wuyang said with a mischievous grin.

Xia Yuqing suddenly realized that An Wuyang was right. The Lin family had asked her to help arrange jobs for her uncle and third cousin. Now, she should ask if there were any arrangements.
As for Africa being too hot, isn't Siberia another option?
The position is that of an overseas special envoy!

"As for the salary, it's 20,000 Xia Guoyuan per month, plus a 2,000 yuan overseas allowance, plus all sorts of other food and beverage subsidies, so a pre-tax salary of 25,000 yuan per month is not a problem," An Wuyang added.

Xia Yuqing echoed, "That's a high salary!"

The two then exchanged a glance and chuckled mischievously together.

People are only motivated when they are doing bad things!
"By the way, your aunt wants to borrow money, and your cousin's job isn't good either. Just refuse the loan request, but say you can offer your cousin a job as well," An Wuyang added.

"Send them to Africa too?" Xia Yuqing asked.

An Wuyang smiled and said, "If you say that later, I reckon your aunts might even start fighting among themselves because of this job opportunity!"

Xia Yuqing immediately agreed, replying with great interest, "Okay, okay, I want to see them fight amongst themselves!"
