The encounter with Sharapova was an unexpected joy, which made Zhou Fangyuan enjoy the beauty of a real long leg, but he still had something to do after all, and he couldn't immerse himself in the affairs of men and women all the time.

This time when he came to Mao Ziguo, Zhou Fangyuan's biggest goal was to buy land.

Maozi is allowed to buy land, in the 01-02 period, the Maozi government has issued a new "Land Code" and "Agricultural Land Circulation Law", allowing land to be bought and sold, laying the foundation for the large-scale operation of agricultural land.

In terms of land, the Maozi people have formulated the land mortgage law, the land appraisal law, and the cadastral book law, and conducted bidding for idle land, gradually popularized the guaranteed land inheritance lease, trust, and other forms of long-term and irregular use of land, and implemented the guarantee of the lessee's investment rights and interests. According to the law, all foreign investors should enjoy the right to acquire land, other natural resources, buildings, facilities and other immovable property in accordance with the laws enacted by Maozi, of course, this is necessary, and it is too much to ignore the laws of others.

Of course, if there is no other provision in the law, then foreign-invested commercial organizations can obtain the right to sign lease land contracts through bidding, auction and bidding.

However, it is important to note that although Maozi's Land Law prohibits foreign citizens and companies, as well as companies with more than 50% foreign shares, from owning agricultural land, subsidiaries of foreign companies are not actually prohibited. According to the Maozi Institute of Agricultural Market Conditions, in '08, 196 private agricultural holding companies controlled all of Russia's arable land, not including those that merged with state companies. In Maozi countries, most of the companies working in various sectors of the agro-industrial complex are foreign shareholders, and the number of these companies will continue to grow year by year. This also shows the current level of chaos in Maozi's country, since the disintegration of the huge alliance, the country has not really recovered, and has been eating the old capital.

Well, the situation in Maozi's country is another matter, let's talk about Zhou Fangyuan's side.

Because of the provisions of Maozi's law, it would not work if he wanted to buy land directly as a distant group, no matter how chaotic Maozi was, no one would dare to toss around such a big thing.

So in order to meet this requirement, Zhou Fangyuan had to find another way.

Based on AL investment, he invested in a large number of small companies in Maozi China, and then established a new agricultural company with these small companies and Yuanfang Group, with Yuanfang Group accounting for 49.9% of the shares and the remaining 50.1% , it is up to those small companies to complete the shares, but although these small companies are registered within Maozi, but in fact, there are differences in the division of shares within these small companies, among all small companies, the proportion of shares invested by AL is very high, and the remaining part of the shares are given to some local magnates and government officials.

Of course, there are still a lot of excesses in this, every time the shares are diluted, a large number of small companies are needed to complete, if Zhou Fangyuan is allowed to do it himself, he can be exhausted to death. Fortunately, there are a large number of employees under him, especially on the AL investment side, who are very professional in doing this, and have registered hundreds of companies in one go, just to complete this act of stealing beams and changing pillars. I won't go into detail about the process during this period, but roughly speaking, nearly 80% of the shares of the new agricultural company fell into Zhou Fangyuan's pocket, and most of the remaining 20% of the shares went to local officials and magnates in Maozi.

Counting, it has long exceeded the 50% limit stipulated by the law, but it doesn't matter, because there are a large number of small companies, plus the current chaos within Maozi, this chaos will even last for more than ten years, so even if Maozi wants to check, it can't be found out at all. After all, the division of shares is too complicated, and compared to other things that can affect the whole country, such a small land sale, to be honest, is completely impossible to attract the attention of the authorities.

As for how much land was bought?

It's really a lot.

According to the consultation between the delegation sent by Yuanfang Agriculture and the local government, Yuanyuan Agriculture will acquire a large amount of land in the vicinity of the municipalities under the Hanty-Manxi Autonomous Region, and these lands will be connected to form three huge farms, with an area of 100,000 hectares, 70,000 hectares and 20,000 hectares respectively, if converted into acres, they will be 1,500,000 mu, 1,000,000 mu and 300,000 mu respectively, a total of nearly 3 million mu of land, which is absolutely not small.

According to the domestic land price of Maozi, a hectare of land is now between 300-500 US dollars, and the Fengfeng area is more expensive, which can reach about 1,000 US dollars. However, the land that Zhou Fangyuan bought is definitely not a bumper production area, and he directly used money to put all aspects in place, and after calculation, the most expensive price per hectare of land is only about 300 US dollars, or even cheaper.

And the land he bought this time was less than 200,000 hectares and the price was less than $60 million.

For less than 60 million US dollars, they bought 200,000 hectares of land, in fact, many of these places are quite good black land, but these politicians are not distressed to sell their fields, anyway, they have money to make.

So the price, speaking of which, is really cheap.

And it's not cheap, the Yuanfang Group can settle these payments in five years, and even use bank loans from land and Maozi...... Sometimes Zhou Fangyuan really doesn't understand what these people think, and in the end, he really spent a lot of money by doing this? Not necessarily, it is very likely that he still spends the country's money, and what he gets is the country's land...... It's a pity that politicians sometimes don't care so much, they either care about political performance, or they care about income, if they care about political performance, so many scattered farmland merged into three large farms, isn't this the same as the purpose of the new law implemented in Maozi two years ago? And it's a little effective, isn't it a political achievement?

In addition to their political achievements, they also have money, do they really think that those shares can feed these officials? That is impossible, although the shares are also valuable, but the shares are not easy to realize, and if the dividends are distributed, they will not be seen in the short term, and the farm will be transformed from establishment to transformation, cultivation, and harvesting...... It takes at least two to three years to really see the money, and no one has the patience to do that, especially politicians.

So in order to get this deal, AL Investments spent $10 million to build it, just to feed these politicians.

They spent less than 60 million yuan on the land, but they spent 10 million just to feed these people, which is really a big price.

But it's all worth it.

Although the final ownership of the land is still in the Maozi government, after all, it is impossible for the Yuanfang Group to directly buy a piece of enclave for 60 million, which is really stupid.

Theoretically, although he has already purchased the land and the land belongs to him, the final interpretation is still in the Maozi government. But how to say it, as long as the current government does not fall, and his distant group does not harm Maozi's behavior, this land can be passed on forever, and it can also be sold, if the distant group can really get this land good and has a high value, then it will definitely attract the attention of some investors, and it is okay to sell it.

However, Zhou Fangyuan is not willing to play the game of buying and selling, and if he has that time, it is better to make the land more high-quality.

On the seventh day of Zhou Fangyuan's visit to Mao Ziguo, that is, the third day of his acquaintance with Sharapova, all the negotiations had ended, and the contract had been drawn up, just waiting to be signed.

On this morning, Zhou Fangyuan was sorting out his clothes.

"Honey, are you going out?"

The location where they are now is not the hotel where Zhou Fangyuan lived before, but Sharapova's home.

Of course, not with her parents, Sharapova had a house of her own, small, but cozy. Sometimes before a big competition, or after a high-intensity and intense training, she likes to come here and lock herself in her room without anyone disturbing her.

"It's important to sign today. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said while packing his tie.

Yesterday day, they were not interesting anywhere, just you were in the hotel, eating and sleeping together. Last night, when there was no one, the two shifted their positions to this small house, and it was another fierce battle.

Sharapova's combat effectiveness is very strong, and Zhou Fangyuan is not weak, and both of them are very happy.

It just so happens that Sharapova has recently been out of an emotional gap and is about to have the most important game of her life, so she needs to relax urgently. At this time, Zhou Fangyuan appeared, and his excellent conversation, exotic style, and excellent personal qualities made Sharapova more and more satisfied with Zhou Fangyuan. Of course, Zhou Fangyuan also likes this big beauty, so the relationship between the two quickly warmed up. Although it is far from being a boyfriend and girlfriend to describe their relationship, after all, they have only known each other for a few days, but the two are now like glue and are not separated for a second.

It's a pity that Zhou Fangyuan has to do the right thing, so even if he doesn't want to leave this gentle township, he still has to get up.

"By the way, do you have anything to do today? If not, why don't you join me for the signing ceremony, and there will be a drinking party after the signing, which will be attended by local government officials. After the party, we can go to the farm and have a look, I haven't seen the land I just bought, how about it?"

Zhou Fangyuan suddenly turned his head and kissed Sharapova's face, and asked with a smile.

"Ahh......h

"Don't worry, you don't show up when there are reporters, and when the signing ceremony is over, reporters should be blocked out, and you can enter the reception casually. And in addition to the people from my company, the participants are local officials, I think, in their capacity, they should not talk nonsense, and it is not difficult to give them some benefits to shut up. ”

Zhou Fangyuan smiled and said very casually.

When Sharapova heard this, she smiled and nodded.

She didn't want to go to a drinking party, a drinking party or something, she had attended countless times since she made a name for herself in the tennis world, and she had no interest in it at all. She just didn't want to be separated from Zhou Fangyuan so soon, because both of them knew that they were not from the same country in the first place, and one was in business and the other was engaged in sports, and I am afraid that in the future, it will be a situation of gathering less and leaving more. So if one of them really wants to take the relationship further, there must be something to sacrifice. Zhou Fangyuan's family has a big business, and it is impossible to sacrifice. As for Sharapova, her career has just begun, how can she be willing to give up everything she has now?

Although Sharapova is only seventeen years old this year, she is far more mature than her peers, and she can certainly figure it out.

So before the two separated, she hoped to stay together as much as possible and leave a perfect memory for this short relationship.

......

Packed up, the two went out and got into the car.

The car soon drove to the site of the signing ceremony, which was in the conference room of the office building of the relevant department.

Sharapova didn't get out of the car at all, but Zhou Fangyuan took his assistant to the scene. There were already countless reporters waiting at the scene, and with the appearance of Zhou Fangyuan and other senior executives of the Yuanfang Group, as well as some leaders of the local local government, the clicking sound of the camera could not be stopped at all.

Answering questions from reporters, looking forward to the future, and briefly describing the direction of development...... And so on and so forth, after all these processes have been completed, it is time for the final signing ceremony.

Zhou Fangyuan, as the chairman of Yuanfang Group, signed his own name without permission. The representatives of AL Investment also signed on it, as well as those who were pushed out, the owners of the leather bag companies, in fact, the sons and nephews of these leaders also signed, and finally the local government signed, in short, after a large number of names were signed, this time the land sale was finally completed.

Both sides were very happy, and the leaders of the local government invited Zhou Fangyuan to participate in the reception afterwards, and Zhou Fangyuan readily agreed, but he said that he needed to prepare a little.

The other party also expressed understanding.

As for the reporters, I'm sorry, but they can't be invited in the reception.

Back in the car, Zhou Fangyuan told Sharapova about the situation inside, sat in the car for a while, and waited for all the reporters to leave, then got out of the car again and took Sharapova to the scene.

Sharapova is also a celebrity in Maozi's country, and the leaders of these local governments showed surprised expressions when they saw her.

Looking at Sharapova and Zhou Fangyuan holding hands, many people showed a sudden look...... Seriously, Zhou Fangyuan didn't know what they were suddenly doing.

After the reception, Zhou Fangyuan took Sharapova to his farm, well, the future location of the farm, at this time is still a piece of scattered farmland and a lot of wasteland, if you want the farm to really run, you still need to do a lot of work. It is expected that the investment will reach hundreds of millions of dollars, but it doesn't matter, the money will not be taken out all at once, but will be invested in batches, continuously transformed, and finally become three super-large farms.

Looking at this land where he couldn't see the edge, Zhou Fangyuan suddenly became arrogant. After seeing that there was no one else around, he suddenly reached out and picked Sharapova up directly. At the girl's exclamation, he strode towards the car.
