Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!

The investment promotion director, surnamed Wang, was assigned here to promote investment with a millionfold reluctance.

He himself looked down on this shabby place.

Although it's right next to the national highway, it's all outside the city, so who would buy a shop here?

He's so eager to get help from someone, how could he not take it seriously?

"Oh dear, boss, I misjudged you. Please have a seat."

Fatty Wang quickly took out a cigarette, pulled one out, and handed it to Wu Sui.

"My surname is Wang, and I'm the investment promotion manager here. What's your surname, sir?"

"My surname is Wu," Wu Sui said, taking the cigarette and lighting it before getting straight to the point.

"Manager Wang, what's the current arrangement for the shops in your seafood market? Are they for sale or for rent?"

Upon hearing that there was hope, Fatty Wang quickly spread out the blueprints on the table.

"Boss Wu, you've come to the right place."

"This is a key project for the county. From now on, all the seafood in the county will have to go through us."

He pointed to the first row of red boxes on the drawing.

"The first phase of the project has just started, and the authorities have already allocated the best row of storefronts facing the street."

"A two-story house, totaling 50 square meters. The downstairs can be used for business, and the street can be used for living..."

Fatty Wang raved about the storefront, which hadn't even been built yet.

Wu Sui leaned over for a look and confirmed that the location was indeed prime, making it most convenient for large vehicles to enter and exit.

Not wanting to listen to Wang Pangzi's continued bluffing, he asked directly, "How much is a set?"

Director Wang was clearly taken aback, not expecting Wu Sui to ask about the price so directly.

He hesitated for a moment, then held up his finger and gestured.

"Prime street-front shop, fixed price: 120,000."

"How many?!"

Wang Feng, who was listening nearby, raised her voice instantly, startling Manager Zhao.

"120,000? Why don't you just rob someone?!"

"It only costs us tens of thousands of yuan to build a two-story house in the village, and you dare to ask for 120,000 yuan without even laying a single brick?"

Wu Gang quickly tugged at Wu Sui's arm and lowered his voice.

"Second brother, isn't 120,000 too expensive to buy a shop in this desolate place?"

Fatty Wang's face turned somewhat ugly. He was about to explain when Wu Sui waved his hand, interrupting him.

"Director Wang, how many of these storefronts facing the street are left?"

"Phase 1 has a total of 50 storefronts, and there are... 49 left."

Wang Pangzi himself felt a little embarrassed by what he said.

The one set that was sold was bought with his own money.

Wang Feng's eyes widened when she heard this, and she almost cursed.

So nobody wants it at all.

Wu Sui thought for a moment and nodded: "How should the deposit be paid?"

When Fatty Wang heard that Wu Sui really wanted to buy it, he quickly made a price offer.

"A 50% deposit of 60,000 yuan is required, and the remaining balance can be paid within one month after delivery on September 1st."

"Okay, I'll take 7 sets. Can you give me a discount?" Wu Sui leaned back in his chair.

The room fell silent instantly.

"Boss Wu, you're not kidding, are you?"

Fatty Wang didn't even bother to brush off his cigarette ash; he stared wide-eyed at Wu Sui.

"12 per unit, 7 units would be 84. You really want to buy that many?!"

Wang Feng also got anxious and grabbed Wu Sui's arm, her voice changing.

"Second brother, are you crazy! This place is obviously unwanted, why did you buy it?"

Wu Gang nodded repeatedly and pulled Wu Sui to walk outside.

"Second brother, this is no joke. If you really want it, we'll just buy one set. Why buy so many?"

Wu Sui remained motionless, then pressed down on his elder brother's hand with his own, while Fatty Chong raised his chin.

"I'm not kidding, there's not a soul in this place now, 120,000 yuan a set is just fooling laymen."

"In that case, I'll buy ten sets, at 100,000 per set."

"Okay, I'll pay the deposit now. If not, we'll leave immediately."

Wang Pangzi's forehead was sweating.

He stayed in this prefabricated house for more than a month, but not a single person came to inquire about the price, let alone buy ten sets.

If he could sell ten sets in one go, he would consider it a success and be able to report back to his superiors.

"Boss Wu, 100,000... I can't make that decision."

Wu Sui stood up and called to Chen Xue, "Xiao Xue, let's go."

"Hey, hey, hey... don't go!"

In his haste, Fatty Wang went around the desk and grabbed Wu Sui's arm.

"Boss Wu, 108,000, this is really the bottom line. I can't explain it to my superiors if it goes any lower."

Wu Sui stopped and turned to look at Wang Feng, winking.

"Sister-in-law, are you going to buy it?"

Wang Feng was stunned, her mind racing.

Although she didn't know anything about the seafood market, she trusted Wu Sui.

What business has Wu Sui been involved in lately not made money?

To put it bluntly, even if Wu Sui pointed at a pile of cow dung and said it could be sold for money, she would still dare to grab a handful.

"Second brother, do you really think this place can make money?"

Wang Feng bit her lip, her hands gripping the hem of her clothes tightly.

"Sister-in-law, trust me, this seafood market is a key project for the county. From now on, all the seafood in the county will have to go through here."

Wu Sui lowered his voice, speaking at a volume that only a few of them could hear.

"Let's take over all the storefronts in this row at the main entrance. From now on, whoever comes to do business will have to be mindful of our attitude."

"Whether I do wholesale myself or rent them out, I definitely won't lose money on these storefronts."

Wang Feng gritted her teeth: "Fine, the bold get rich while the timid starve. I'll take three sets!"

Wu Gang was startled and quickly covered his wife's mouth.

"Are you crazy? You're over thirty."

Wang Feng pried Wu Gang's hand away.

"If the second brother says we can make money, then we can. The money's just sitting there anyway, so we might as well take a gamble."

Wu Sui smiled and turned to look at Fatty Wang.

"Director Wang, did you hear that? We want all ten sets."

"I'll take seven sets, and my sister-in-law will take three sets."

Fatty Wang was so excited that his whole body trembled. He quickly opened a drawer and took out a stack of contracts.

"Boss Wu is very generous. I'll pay 50% as a deposit, and you'll give me 50 for ten sets."

"Phase one of the projects will be completed on September 1st. Then you can pay the final payment and get the keys!"

"The final payment can be made within a month. If you can't pay the final payment by then, then the shop..."

Wu Sui nodded, understanding the meaning behind his words, and turned to look at Chen Xue.

Chen Xue took her bank card out of her bag, her hands trembling.

With 50 yuan spent, ten housing purchase contracts were laid out on the table.

Fatty Wang was incredibly obsequious, calling him Boss Wu repeatedly, and escorted them all the way to the car, even forcing two packs of cigarettes onto them.

On the way back, the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit strange.

Wang Feng held the three contracts, sometimes smiling, sometimes frowning.

That's over 300,000 yuan! He's never spent money so extravagantly in his entire life.

We were building a new house for the family, and we also bought another one in the county town. Now we've spent another 30 yuan...

If you calculate your savings, half of it is gone just like that.

She gave Wu Sui a strange look and sighed.

Chen Xue sat in the passenger seat, head down, her fingers constantly twisting the hem of her clothes.

"Feeling sorry for her?" Wu Sui reached out and took Chen Xue's hand.

"Ah Sui, we finally managed to save up some money, and before we even had a chance to enjoy it, it's all gone."
