Chapter 222: A New Plan (Three Changes, Ask for a Monthly Pass, Haha~Set a New Goal~)
Time flies like a white horse, and you can't stop it if you want to reach out.
Many people always want to race against time, but they don't know that the best way to keep time is to race against themselves.
Trying to make yourself better and stronger day by day is more useful than sitting there and lamenting the time that has passed.
After Hongrong went public, Lin Zitan's money really got bigger and bigger like a snowball, but he didn't stop there.
As a result of the aftermath of the financial crisis, the entire U.S. housing market remains in a slump, with many homes sold at a price.
After Lin Zitan had more money in his hands, he no longer only focused on those complete sets of residential villas.
In 2010, Flushing, as the third largest gathering area of Chinese in New York, has slowly begun to heat up.
As you can see from the crowds around you, it is becoming a new gathering point for Chinese.
The new immigrants here are younger and more cultural, and many young people are not like the Fuzhou people who came here in the early years.
Carrying hundreds of thousands of yuan in debt, he walked forward like a snail.
Newcomers are beginning to look at the channels and sights of earning money in a simpler and more economical direction.
There are more and more snack bars, bubble tea shops, express delivery shops and so on.
Some high-end restaurants with northern and southern flavors will also rise in this young town.
Flushing's future stores will definitely rise, and it can even be said that it is difficult to find a store.
That night, Lin Zitan took Kyle to Steve's bar.
Because among the people Lin Zitan knows, Steve is the most familiar with Flushing.
If it doesn't work, he's ready to bring Steve into the gang as well.
"What? you want to buy a shop, a Flushing shop?" Steve asked, sitting in his executive chair and raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, I think the business district of Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue will definitely be popular in the future!" Lin Zitan said quietly.
"You're right, the business atmosphere here is getting better and better, but the cost of buying a shop is too high, right?
And everyone is not stupid, you can see it, many investors have seen it, and then there are people with shops in their hands.
Who would be stupid enough to kill a chicken that lays eggs?" Steve laughed.
"You say that, I also found out, lately I've been learning about this piece of real estate,
It's true that I only saw a lot of them posted for rent, but I didn't see anything to sell!" Lin Zitan wondered.
"Do you know why? Because a lot of these shops are already in the hands of Chinese Americans.
These people have been here for I don't know how many years, just like Chinatown in the lower city, those first-generation and second-generation Chinese,
If you have money, you have bought commercial buildings, like the Confucius Building, why was it called Chinatown at that time?
Because many of the shops over there are landlords of our Chinese, they know how valuable these shops are.
After his own death, his sons and grandsons will continue to inherit, unless any unworthy descendant loses the inheritance.
Normally they don't sell it!" Steve explained in all seriousness.
"I see, but Flushing looks like a new Chinese district, I didn't expect it... Lin Zi said regretfully.
"Hehe~ How many years have I been in this area?
The original gangs and so on, all of them have moved out of Chinatown, and there are very few of them!
Many people in Brooklyn and Flushing have secretly set up separate doors to continue their operations, but they are not as arrogant as they used to be.
So I thought it was strange that you could find me!"
Steve said as he pulled out a cigarette case and lighter from his drawer.
"Do you want to smoke one?"
"Well, you still smoke, I've never seen you smoke!" Lin Zitan took the cigarette case, smoked one and put it in his hand.
"It's not that I don't smoke, but I don't dare to smoke, the grass here is too overflowing, and I don't want to be harmed by the good smoke of someone I don't know. ”
Steve also took one out of it and put it in his mouth.
"Uh... Lin Zitan originally wanted to use the lighter to ignite his hand, but after listening to Steve's words, he couldn't help but pause,
Just as he was hesitating whether he would be laughed at by Steve, he heard Steve chuckle.
"Damn, can I still hurt you?"
"It's hard to say, you're not a good person anyway!" Lin Zitan said, holding the cigarette to his ear.
Thinking about going back home and smoking again, he doesn't have a habit of smoking himself anyway.
"You're pretty realistic, forget it, whatever you want, it's right not to smoke when you're out and about, especially like you,
When you're out there alone, safety is the most important thing, how is Kyle?
Steve asked casually, taking a deep puff of his cigarette.
"He's okay, at least he does his job!"
Lin Zitan said lightly, he was still thinking about whether he could buy a shop.
"Don't be in a hurry to buy a shop, I'll inquire for you first who has a loser who wants to make a move, and then buy it when you have the opportunity.
But I can suggest you buy more houses around here, whether it's a single-family or a townhouse.
As long as there is a house, I am not afraid that no one will buy it, and recently there are a number of stupid X, X second generation in China.
These people don't speak a word of English, and they don't dare to buy a house too far from the Chinese area, you know!" Steve whispered.
"I'm staring at the houses listed in this neighborhood, and I've already bought more than a dozen, even fresh grasslands, forest hills
I'm starting to get in both Rego Park and Bayside. Just sell the houses one by one,
Still not as stable as owning a few shops!, do you say?" Lin Zi sighed and said with a smile.
"Young man, don't worry, I'll help you inquire a little, and I'll let you know as soon as there is news!
But the ugly thing is said in the front, when you buy a bunk, you have to give me a 5% commission, not counting the ones you officially traded.
Of course, I'll give you the most reasonable price!" said Steve.
"That's okay, it's a word!" Lin Zitan and Steve talked secretly for a while, then got up and left.
Steve sat in his seat and squinted, thinking that this kid was really not a thing in the pool.
When I first saw him, I felt that this kid was resolute, and now so many years have passed.
He really hasn't looked away! Under the age of 25, he will soon have a net worth of hundreds of millions! He is much better than himself!
But I hate only my own brain, and I can't read, and I don't have any other expertise except fighting, killing, and killing.
The butt of his second cigarette was extinguished in the ashtray, and Steve got up and walked outside.
I thought to myself that this simple bartending and pimping job would be more suitable for him!
--------------
After Lin Zitan left Steve's bar, his mood was still a little shocked,
He himself inquired through his own contacts and channels, and it was true that few people in Flushing's shops were listed for sale.
Now after listening to Steve's statement, he is still a little unwilling, thinking that it is too late to do it himself.
On the way back, Lin Zitan was still thinking about how to get a piece of the pie in these shops.
The mobile phone in the handbag rang suddenly, Lin Zitan took it out and saw that it was a domestic phone.
Thinking that it must be Zhang Jing, he hurriedly picked it up.
Lin Zitan found that 7 years have passed since he was reborn until now.
If it weren't for Jack's wedding card saying that he was going to get engaged, he would have almost forgotten about going back ten years!
Hongrong's listing brought him a huge fortune all of a sudden, and even Li Manrui and Mike knew that he had made a lot of money.
Not to mention Chen Lin, who once had a small conflict with him in business.
