Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 298 Preparation
"Uncle Gu, are you going to be busy with something else?"
"No, no, I’m just so thrilled I don’t know how to express it," Gu Yi responded quickly.
"Uncle Gu, there’s no need to be so excited. In a few months, they’ll be building an industrial zone out there, and you’ll have your hands full then."
Xia Liu began to smile slightly. What they lacked most now was a construction team. The people on both sides from Gu Yi and Gu Fangxia combined might not be enough.
Once the industrial zone was finalized, they would still need to find several construction teams.
"This can’t be real, can it?" Gu Yi and Li Dazhuang were both a bit stunned.
An industrial zone!
That would mean building hundreds of businesses, not to mention at least a dozen factories in the early stages.
If this was really finalized, it would be no small feat.
"Of course it’s real. The Eastern District of the county town is already being built by the Osmanthus Group. I’ll contact some friends later to set up factories."
"Wow! Brother Xia Liu, are all your friends really rich?"
Li Dazhuang looked at Xia Liu excitedly. Mentioning casually about his friends setting up factories, he spoke with no pressure at all, which was terrifying.
Gu Yi felt the same way. He couldn’t help but be curious about what kind of person Xia Liu really was.
"Well, I went to Liuhai City a few days ago and met quite a few people. I believe they will support me."
Recalling the rich second generations on the boat, Xia Liu felt they would agree to his request, because obviously any factories they set up would need to be profitable.
"Terrifying, terrifying!"
Li Dazhuang couldn’t help but exclaim. Going to Liuhai City and making friends with so many rich second generations probably couldn’t have been done by anyone other than Xia Liu.
"Let’s go pick a site for the silk factory, and we can talk about other things on the way." After everything was settled, Xia Liu drove the two to check out the site.
Once it was confirmed, Xia Liu called Li Zhong, asking him to sort out the land issues.
For the land, Xia Liu offered fifty thousand per mu on a fifty-year lease, not a permanent sale.
When the person in charge told the farmers the price, they were all excited.
The land was far from their homes and they weren’t growing much on it. Renting it out would definitely be a huge benefit.
Not to mention at such a high price, which was unmatched.
Villagers nearby heard that some farmers had rented out a few plots of land, making hundreds of thousands in income, and they all came to see.
Some of their lands had been bought up, thirty thousand per mu, and they could never reclaim it.
The fact that here it was for lease, fifty thousand for fifty years per mu!
This news didn’t take long to spread throughout Hejing and the surrounding areas.
At night, Xia Liu and Gu Yi were dragged to Li Dazhuang’s home to drink.
Li Zhi had to part with several pounds of Osmanthus Wine for the occasion. If it weren’t for Xia Liu’s presence, Li Zhi might have killed his son.
After the third round of drinks, as the alcohol took effect, Gu Yi patted Xia Liu and asked, "Xia Liu, what’s going on with you and my daughter? I haven’t seen her in many days, and when I call her, she says she’s busy. I ask where she’s busy, who she’s busy with, and she says with you."
Hearing Gu Yi say this, the whole Li family lowered their heads with silly smiles.
They were somewhat aware of Xia Liu’s affairs, and when you see through but don’t tell.
But now that Gu Yi had actually mentioned it, it was simply hilarious.
"Uncle Gu, just like aunt said a few days ago, Fangxia and I are together. We’ve been so busy that I didn’t have time to tell you," Xia Liu said.
Facing Gu Yi’s straightforward question, Xia Liu didn’t dodge and openly told him everything.
After hearing Xia Liu’s response, Gu Yi fell silent.
Just when Li Zhong’s family thought Gu Yi was about to lose his temper, to their surprise, he burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... this is just great, having Fangxia follow you is truly her good fortune."
"Hehe, Uncle Gu is absolutely right, Brother Xia Liu is really amazing, whether it’s making money or taking responsibility, he’s incomparable."
"Hmm, I’ve watched this boy grow up since he was little, he’s a good man, a good husband."
Li Dazhuang and Li Zhong both laughed and agreed.
"It’s not that exaggerated..." Xia Liu said modestly with a smile.
"I know whether it is or not, but I’ve already made up my mind about you," Gu Yi said with a hearty laugh, bolstered by the drinks.
By the end, Gu Yi was drunk, and Xia Liu helped him back to rest.
It wasn’t until the early hours that Xia Liu returned to his own home.
Tonight he planned to rest, and had already called the girls before that.
Early next morning, Xia Liu called both Yang Tian and Huang Yilong.
He told both of them about his idea for the industrial zone.
After hearing Xia Liu’s news, Yang Tian and Huang Yilong immediately agreed to invest in two factory buildings.
Huang Yilong even said that once the commercial street in the Eastern District was built, he wanted to rent a larger shop.
Hejing’s population was sure to keep increasing, all projects would rise, and investing now was simply making a fortune.
Yang Tian and Huang Yilong, having participated in past auctions, couldn’t possibly let this opportunity slip by.
Moreover, they came back and secretly drank a bottle of Osmanthus Wine, then headed to Dabaojian, where the technician ended up crying while they nearly choked with laughter.
Being able to become agents for Osmanthus Wine, they owed Xia Liu in return.
This wasn’t just a favor, it was a matter of dignity!
Xia Liu had given them the confidence and dignity a man should have!
Xia Liu not only invited Yang Tian and Huang Yilong to build factories, but also encouraged them to find suitable spots and persuade friends to join them — if there was money to be made, they should earn it together.
Making money while also helping themselves; if they weren’t willing to earn money, then there was nothing to be done about it.
Actually, Xia Liu’s worries were unnecessary.
As soon as Yang Tian made a phone call, anyone who had experienced the pirate incident with him on the ship only felt admiration, respect, and fear towards Xia Liu.
Whatever Xia Liu requested, even if they lacked the ability, they would somehow make themselves capable.
Thus, throughout the day, Xia Liu’s phone almost exploded from all the calls.
One after another, calls from Liuhai City.

Every time he answered, he would hear the excited words from the other side, and they even scheduled times to come and see the place.
After receiving dozens of calls, Xia Liu simply told them that the news was true about the industrial zone starting, and he didn’t want to explain anymore, just asking them to spread the news to everyone.
As for them, Xia Liu didn’t know them; after all, both men and women were making calls.
However, one thing was certain, preparations for the industrial zone could start.
"What! Already so many investors are rushing over?" In the meeting room, Li Zhong heard this news and nearly fell off his chair in shock.
The colleagues meeting at the long table heard this news, all full of wonder, questioning what investors would come to Hejing?
"County Li, is it about the boss of the Osmanthus Group?" the young man who had accompanied Li Zhong and Xia Liu to see the land in the Eastern District asked yesterday.
"Hahaha! Let me tell you some great news, Xia Liu just called me, saying that many bosses are coming to look at the land in the next few days, and most likely, they will all establish companies!"
