Without the slightest accident, when he got home, Xia Xueqing had already helped him put away the bath water. It seems that she is planning to live here for a long time.

"Sister Xueqing, you always don't go home at night, isn't Uncle Xia worried?" Liu Tao asked with a smile after coming out of the shower.

"I'm so old, there's nothing to worry about. Do you think I'm getting in your way here? Want to kick me away? Xia Xueqing guessed.

"Look at what you said. You're here to help me clean up my home, how could I be willing to let you go. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"That's pretty much it. By the way, today my dad held a board meeting and announced that I would be the CEO of the group. If you have time, you can visit our group office building. Xia Xueqing said very happily.

"Really? Then I want to congratulate you! I believe that Guangyu Group will definitely achieve faster development under your leadership. Liu Tao complimented him in a timely manner.

"It's never so easy to do business. You think I'm like you, gambling on stones can make so much money. Due to the impact of the global financial crisis, the market performance is very poor, and I will close several companies under the group that are not profitable. Xia Xueqing said.

"What kind of business does your group make money from now? Real estate? Anything else? Liu Tao asked with interest.

"In addition to real estate, catering and credit are all relatively profitable." Xia Xueqing thought for a moment and said.

"After doing it for a long time, your group used to be usury. This is indeed more profitable, but the risk is higher. Liu Tao smiled. "You don't want to build the group into a professional real estate company, do you? ”

"There is this idea. But I don't want to do residential, I want to do commercial real estate. To be precise, I want to create an urban complex. Xia Xueqing replied.

"Urban complexes? This sounds interesting. Can you elaborate on that? Liu Tao suddenly became interested.

"The urban complex is a small city, and all the services and facilities in it are readily available. This is done by buying a large piece of land and building shopping malls, offices, residential buildings and shops on the land. Of course, shopping malls and office buildings are rent-only, not sold. Xia Xueqing explained.

"Rent or sell? Will this work? It would be nice if house prices kept rising. If housing prices fall, wouldn't it be a loss? Liu Tao asked with some concern.

"According to the current economic development rate of China, housing prices will not fall for a while and a half. Besides, urban complexes fall under the category of commercial real estate. It's not an ordinary dwelling. The price of residential property may fall, but the price of commercial real estate will hard. Xia Xueqing shook her head and said.

"You should need a lot of money to build an urban complex, right? What are the total assets of Coslight Group now? Liu Tao then asked.

"Guangyu Group's total assets are now almost 13 billion. If you build an urban complex, it mainly depends on how big the urban complex is. If it's big. The amount of investment is also very large. Of course, we can borrow from the bank. Xia Xueqing said.

"According to me, Nancheng has now become a second-tier city in China, and the housing prices have exceeded 10,000 yuan, even in the suburbs. If you're going to build an urban complex here. I think the cost is too high. But you're a good idea. Consider Binjiang as a third-tier city. Liu Taojian said.

"Isn't Binjiang your hometown? I think you want to help your hometown develop, right? Xia Xueqing guessed.

Liu Tao nodded and said, "If there is such a good investment opportunity, of course I will think of my hometown first." If you're going to Binjiang, I have a good place to recommend you. ”

"Oh? Is it? Let's hear it. Xia Xueqing asked with great interest.

"I feel good about the Binjiang Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, and if you can develop it into an urban complex, I think it will definitely make money." Liu Tao said.

"Isn't it? Municipal Party Committee, you also want to demolish? You're too daring, aren't you? Xia Xueqing was taken aback by his mention!

"It's not that I'm bold, it's that I think the office buildings of the municipal party committee should have been demolished a long time ago. Not only the municipal party committee, but also the surrounding city government, the broadcasting bureau, and the health bureau. All should be dismantled. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"If you tear down those office buildings. Where do these units work? Xia Xueqing asked a little puzzled. If the urban complex is to be built in place, then these administrative institutions will definitely have to leave.

"It's easy to do. We can pay for them to build better office buildings elsewhere. Liu Tao said.

"Your idea is easy to say, but it will be difficult to implement. If nothing else, let's just say that whether those units are willing to move is a question. Xia Xueqing said with some worry.

"If you're willing to invest, I'll do it! I'm sure you'll be able to do it beautifully! In addition, if the urban complex is really built, it will be regarded as a political achievement for the local government. More importantly. A lot of taxes can be collected every year, and the people have a place to spend and entertain, so why not. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"So be it. I'll send someone to the field first, if that land is really worth the investment. I will hold a board meeting to discuss this. Xia Xueqing said.

"I'm going back to Binjiang in a few days. Or you come with me. Liu Taojian said.

"Aren't you new to school? Why do you want to go back all of a sudden? Xia Xueqing was stunned for a moment and asked.

"That's a long story. There is an American company that wants to invest in Dongshan Province, and I have already won the project to Binjiang City, and I am going to take the company's CEO to visit the site in a few days. It just so happens that you also want to go on a field trip. Let's go together. Liu Tao explained briefly.

"You really don't flow into the fields of outsiders! You have done your best to attract investment for Binjiang City, should the leaders of the municipal party committee award you a certificate? Xia Xueqing quipped.

"Sister Xueqing, do you know, Binjiang is a large agricultural county, and there are not many companies, especially large companies. If only we could bring in more investment. It is a great thing for the development of Binjiang. Liu Tao explained. This is mainly due to the reports he read during the years he lived in the municipal party committee compound, and compared to the neighboring cities, Binjiang City's GDP is not even half of that of others! What about the population? That's twice as much!

The main reason is that because there are too few companies, most of the rural labor force cannot be released. If these labor forces can be fully utilized, the living standards of the people in Binjiang City will be greatly improved!

"If the truth is like what you say, wouldn't the income level of Binjiang City be very low? If you build an urban complex there, do you think someone will be able to spend it there? Xia Xueqing's eyes were full of doubts.

"Low consumption does not mean no consumption. Besides, Binjiang City's population base is there, and even one tenth of the people consume it is a very huge number. What's more, I'm not trying to find a way to attract investment for Binjiang City? As more and more companies in Binjiang City grow, everyone's consumption level will also increase rapidly, and the urban complex you build can serve them. Liu Tao waved his hand and said.

"I think you should simply be the director of the investment promotion office of Binjiang City. With a dedicated director like you, it will definitely attract more companies to set up factories there. Xia Xueqing quipped.

"I just want to make Binjiang City a better place, that's all." Liu Tao scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment.

"It's not early. Isn't it time for us to rest? Xia Xueqing chatted with him for so long, looked at her watch, and said.

"There's no rush. Let's talk a little longer. Liu Tao looked at her and said.

"No, I can't. I'm feeling a little sleepy. If you don't sleep, I'll have to rest. Xia Xueqing said while yawning.

"Okay. Then you go and rest. Liu Tao said.

Before dawn the next morning, Liu Tao's mobile phone rang.

He looked at the caller number and found that it was Mr. Fan calling.

"Grandpa, why did you call me so early?" Pressing the answer button, Liu Tao asked.

"It's still early! It's seven o'clock over there, right? You kid wouldn't have gotten up yet, would you? Mr. Fan's voice raised an octave.

"We didn't start military training until eight o'clock, and we didn't have time to get up at half past seven." Liu Tao smiled bitterly helplessly and asked, "Is there something wrong with your old man calling so early?" ”

"I heard that Peter in the United States suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and was admitted to the special care ward of the Provincial People's Hospital, and after the operation, he lost his intuition in his lower limbs, and it was your kid who cured him?" Mr. Fan expressed his intention.

"Yes!" Liu Tao nodded and said, "But I only gave him acupuncture once, and if you want to completely recover, it will take about half a month." ”

"Good boy! Originally, I didn't believe it when I heard the news, but I didn't expect it to be true! When did you learn acupuncture? I remember when I first met you, you didn't seem to know. Mr. Fan asked in surprise.

"If I say that I met a master, and then he passed on my acupuncture technique, would you believe it?" Liu Tao asked with a smile.

"Faith! The world is full of wonders, maybe you really met a master. Mr. Fan replied.

"You didn't call me so early in the morning just for this, right?" Liu Tao asked.

"Of course not." Mr. Fan shook his head and said, "I recently sent someone to collect some medicinal herbs, and I can take a medicinal bath almost twice. When are you free to come to me? ”

Hearing the word medicated bath, Liu Tao's eyes lit up. He is a person who has personally received a medicated bath, so he naturally knows the benefits of a medicated bath! After ten medicinal baths, he had basically reached the point of invulnerability! If you continue to take the medicinal bath, the devil knows what kind of course you will reach in the end! Maybe you're not even afraid of bullets!

His heart was full of anticipation. (To be continued.) )
