Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 1346 Deliberation

Xiao Wei said, "I didn't really think that much about it at the time. I just felt it was quite unique, and I definitely felt that the courtyard was more comfortable than the apartment building. However, this is the capital city, and it's impossible to preserve such large areas of mixed courtyard houses like this. That's for sure."

An Laowu asked, "Did you buy too little?"

Xiao Wei said, "Somewhat. I'm thinking of building a traditional courtyard-style hotel along the entire commercial street. This area is like Luogu Lane, which is packed with tourists from all over the world all day long. I think it's feasible."

Tourism is currently a popular activity.

Since the courtyards weren't designated for the hotel, Xiao Hui, Lao Xia, and I took them over privately. Now, the residents here all want to move into apartments, and we built a few buildings, so it was used as collateral; it didn't cost us much money.

Chen Hui said, "It's a pity that there aren't any decent ones. You've all seen the tenement courtyards, right? They're all in such a mess that repairing them is almost the same as rebuilding them."

They've lived here for decades. Every family has grown up and multiplied; any space, even a few square meters, has been converted into living quarters. The original structure is long gone and unrecognizable. Back then, there was no family planning policy.

An Laowu asked, "So what are your plans? Rebuild everything?"

Xiao Wei said, "Let's see how it goes once we've collected most of it. We'll design it and try to put everything together into a complete film. Reconstruction is a given, but we still need to figure out how to rebuild it. Besides, we haven't decided how to use it yet. We can't just put it all together and sell it, can we?"

Hao Dawei said, "Why can't we sell them? There are quite a few detached houses in this area, and they're all in other people's hands. We checked, and a lot of foreigners are buying houses here, as well as some wealthy people like you."

Chen Hui said to Xiao Wei, "We can do a count and see what we want internally, and then we can set aside some for later. Some places have been delayed because they are too scattered. If everyone wants to set one up, then these will be more suitable."

We'll replace the yard, deduct the cost from their profit sharing, and then they can build it themselves. We can provide the blueprints.

Old Man An pointed to his right hand: "Okay, okay, we'll build it ourselves. We'll do it like Xiao Hui's. Don't make it too small, at least it should be a complete courtyard."

Xiaowei said, "Okay, let's do it then. Everyone who wants to register with Dawei should tell us their thoughts and requests, and we'll try our best to meet them."

Huang Laowu scratched his head: "I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I really didn't have this idea in the first place. Now that you're saying no, doesn't that seem a bit out of touch with the masses?"

An Laowu said to Huang Laowu, "Let's get one. This place is bound to turn around in the future. Besides, it's a good deal to get a house here. It'll also be more convenient to come here in the future."

"If you arrange the little courtyard properly, plant a few trees, add a rockery and a fish pond, how comfortable it would be! Much better than an apartment building. This area has such a wonderful environment; just thinking about it is beautiful."

Liu Hongliang said, "I want it, let's get it. It doesn't need grass or feed, it'll be so convenient for everyone to live in this area."

Xiao Liwen said, "I want to do that too, so my parents can retire here."

Chen Hui said, "You've moved all the household registrations here, but aren't you considering the children's education? Our children will definitely be going to school here in the future."

Old Huang slapped his thigh: "That's right, this is a high starting point for the kids' schooling. Alright, let's get it done."

"What are you doing?" Sister Jin and Director Liu, Li Na and Liu, walked over from behind. "This yard is amazing! There's even a garden in the back. Don't you want to go check it out?"

Liu Hongliang said, "I was planning to build a courtyard here by myself, so that my household registration can be transferred here in the future and my child can go to school here."

Jin Jie's eyes lit up: "Really? Is it easy to make? I want one too."

Xiao Wei said with a smile, "I heard that Sister Jin is about to have her flowers bloom? When is that?"

Jin Jie glared at Xiao Wei, then pulled Li Na to sit down: "Let's do it next year, there's too much going on this year."

Chen Hui said, "Sister Jin, have you fully understood the other party's situation? You're too honest, take it slow."

Xiao Wei said, "Let's have Brother Gao find someone to investigate tomorrow, so we'll have a better understanding of the situation."

Sister Jin thought for a moment but didn't say anything.

Xiao Wei said, "Alright, we'll talk about this later. It'll start in Kyoto next year. Let's all share our experiences; we'll be busy for a while."

Manager Zhang said, "I'm almost done here. I just need to recruit a group of people to go back and train them. The management positions will be transferred from other places. As long as Meijing can keep up, there won't be any problems."

Director Liu smoothed his hair: "I'm fine here. I'll have Xiao Zhangli take charge of this area at the end of the year. Xiao Wei, I always have to remind you about the warehouse."

Hao Dawei raised his right hand: "Here it is, here it is. It's all arranged. The foundation has been laid. Don't worry, you'll definitely have it next year."

Director Liu asked, "Where is it located? How big is it? Why haven't you given me the information?"

Hao Dawei said, "It's near Wufangqiao, similar to the transit warehouse in Fengtian, it'll definitely be enough for your needs. The office area is already built, and the warehouse foundation is complete; we'll be installing the steel structure soon."

I was planning to hand over the office space to you as soon as it was finished; it's still under renovation. Who knew everyone would come over now?

Manager Chen said, "We plan to open six to ten supermarkets at once. We will use three of these as central stores and then open convenience stores around these ten supermarkets. The site selection work is already underway, and after initial contact, we have already identified about forty locations."

Oguri Min said, "It's similar to what Uncle Zhang is doing. We need to get our own three things sorted out before we can plan our next step. However, I plan to talk to the big shopping malls here and see if we can set up a shop there."

Sister Jin said, "It's all about the same. We're all limited by housing, and renting a place isn't cost-effective. I'm also going to open three central stores first, and then we'll see. Dawei, you guys came over too, right? You should consider my supermarket project as well as Dawei's."

Chen Hui said, "If there are suitable ones, we can acquire them and then renovate them."

Hao Dawei nodded: "Okay, I'll meet up with Uncle Zhang, Uncle Chen, and Li Wen here after that."

Li Na said, "It's all the same. I'll consider opening a few more buildings if there are suitable ones for me. This is the capital, and the hotel business is easier here than in Fengtian. I'll open three five-star hotels, then one-star and two-star hotels, or maybe just a few ordinary hotels."

Xiao Wei said, "The courtyard hotel here will start construction next spring, and it will also be managed by you. The commercial street will be handled by Lao Wu's property management company."

Huang Laowu nodded.

Hao Dawei said, "Why don't we let Lao Wu take over the apartment purchase? It should be the property management's responsibility anyway."

Xiao Wei said, "You should do it. Buy it, renovate it, and then hand it over to Lao Wu. The property management company will pay some money for it then."

Hao Dawei laughed and said, "Can we raise the price? We should at least follow market rates, shouldn't we?"

Xiao Wei said, "We should make the profits we deserve. Although we are all in the same company, we are also independent companies. We should follow the rules and at most give you a friendly price."
