Chapter 7: Gifts

"How are you?"

Qin Ran took the initiative to speak.

"It wasn't good before, but it's good now."

Ye Linghan blinked his eyes and replied a little mischievously.

"Actually, I really didn't expect you to be here, or ......"

Feeling a little excited, Qin Ran paused, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Ye Linghan opening his mouth.

"Otherwise, wouldn't you have come, someone seems to want to run away as soon as they saw me, right?"

"Hehe, I think we are quite fateful, and we met again."

Qin Ran deliberately opened the topic.

It was decided that there would be a chance to reminisce again, after all, now that everyone was staring at the two of them, Qin Ran made a request to pull the song.

"Pull the song, this request is very troublesome."

Ye Linghan first showed an embarrassed expression, and seeing that Qin Ran was a little disappointed, he changed his words.

"Looking at your face, I have to reluctantly help you once. Remember, you owe me one more time. ”

As soon as the words fell, Ye Linghan suddenly remembered the scene when he asked the other party to repay his debts last time, and his face couldn't help but blush.

The boy in front of him didn't react, he happily prepared to go back to his life.

Looking at Qin Ran's departing back, Ye Linghan felt that the haze that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time had finally dissipated, and his whole body was bright and full of positive sunshine.

I didn't expect to reunite with him dramatically like this, and I don't know if this is a gift from God to me.

When he wanted to give up, he really appeared in front of him alone, does it mean that God gave him a chance to compete fairly with her in his mind.

In the anticipation of a group of people, Qin Ran returned to the team and gave everyone a V-word victory gesture.

"Dig a slot, deputy platoon, you are amazing, I am really convinced!"

Gou Jiarun, the boy who was agitating at the beginning, raised his thumb and praised.

Assembling the team, Qin Ran brought the 3rd Company and 1st Platoon to the side of the 1st Company and 1st Platoon. Get ready to start the singing competition.

"Time is precious!

Sing it -- simply!

Don't sing - retreat! - Retreat! - Retreat! ”

As soon as he sat down, Ye Linghan launched 1 company and 1 platoon to attack Qin Ran and their class head-on.

"One-two-three-four, one-two-three-four, like a song, ready to sing!"

Qin Ran shouted loudly.

"Haha-"

As soon as the words fell, I didn't expect the 3 companies and 1 platoon that were originally united to laugh all of a sudden. Qin Ran had forgotten how strong his "talent" was in the field of singing, and his out-of-tune singing voice conquered himself and his friends at once.

……

As the sun set, the freshmen of Tenkyo University ended their first day at the training base amid bursts of singing.

When the freshmen of other companies rushed to the bathroom when they heard the order to disband, the students of the 3rd Company and 1st Platoon of the 2nd Battalion had already seized the shower heads.

During military training, what is the most painful thing is to take a bath! What's the most sought-after is still taking a bath!

When you've been in the sun all day, you're sweating all over your body and getting wet and dry. Dry and wet, how desperate to take a hot shower.

But hot water isn't infinite, especially if you're competing with more than 3,000 people and then there's no hot water available.

Qin Ran was very thoughtful and used his identity as a deputy platoon to let the instructor open the back door, let the classmates leave class a little early, step by step, and occupied the bathroom before all the new students.

How does prestige come about, it is obtained by making a little benefit for the classmates!

There are 60 people in 3 companies and 1 platoon. There are 36 boys and the remaining 24 are girls. Military training, a dormitory for 12 people. Qin Ran was also with 3 people in the same dormitory, plus 8 other boys in the class.

Seeing Qin Ran showing a backpack full of snacks in front of everyone, the people in the dormitory were stunned.

In this closed training base, these snacks are a precious resource like gold.

"I inquired before I came, the food here is quite average, and I specially brought something to share with you."

Yu Tao snatched a bag of potato chips. Raised his thumb again and praised Qin Ran.

Under his leadership, the others were not hypocritical, and each took something to supplement nutrition, after all, the food in the military training base was very difficult to eat.

Of course, Qin Ran also hid the things at the bottom of the box in advance, and the three cans of items became more valuable as the military training lasted longer.

A plane arrived at Tenkyo Airport. Arriving on a long flight from London, the passengers who had just stepped off the plane were a little jet-lagged.

What Wang Yaxuan wants to know most now is what happened in Jiangzhou during this summer vacation, especially which university the boy was admitted to.

Back to Tianjing's villa, which is the Wang family's foothold in the capital, all the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Daily from the day she left until today is quietly placed in the living room. This is what she asked her family to prepare before boarding the plane in London, after all, she has been away for three months and desperately needs to make up for the lost time.

A very purposeful search, she soon picked out the relevant reports from a bunch of newspapers when the college entrance examination results were announced.

"Three yuan and first, our province is surprised by the appearance of Grand Slam candidates!"

"Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School occupies more than half of the top students in this year's college entrance examination!"

……

When the name of Qin Ran of Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School appeared in her eyes, Wang Yaxuan couldn't believe it, she couldn't believe that this boy who was blown into the sky in the newspaper was the one she knew.

After nearly three years of classmates, Qin Ran's achievements Wang Yaxuan knew in her heart, and even she couldn't dare to swear to win the position of champion, but he won four champions in one fell swoop.

"Tenkyo University."

Seeing that the newspaper said that Qin Ran resolutely applied for Tianjing University before the results came out, Wang Yaxuan's heart warmed, and tears could no longer be suppressed.

At the beginning, he was sent to Tianjing University, and he swore in front of him that he wanted to study in Tianjing, but he didn't expect him to really fulfill his promise and come to the best university in the capital to find himself, oh no, he should be waiting for himself now.

It's nice to have such a person waiting for him on campus!

Due to the cancellation of Tianjing University's escort qualification by her mother, Wang Yaxuan will not be able to report for a while, but her father has already made a guarantee to help solve this problem before he returns to China, and I believe that there will be a result in less than two days, after all, the Wang family also has a certain influence in China.

Back in the bedroom, Wang Yaxuan opened the suitcase. In addition to clothes, there are a lot of small items that I buy every time I go abroad.

Cowboy hats in the United States, football keychains in Brazil, windmill models in the Netherlands, kangaroo dolls in Australia, dolls in Japan, etc., these small things that represent her footprints, Wang Yaxuan plans to give them to boys as gifts when the time is right, because they all convey her deep longing for him when she was in a foreign country.

"Ye Pai, your high school classmates are looking for you again!"

After an afternoon of singing. The relationship between Qin Ran and Ye Linghan was exposed, and everyone knew that the two of them were high school classmates, no wonder they looked so familiar.

The base also has to train at night, but the intensity has been greatly weakened, and it is basically just organizing some collective talks and competitions.

While he was resting, Qin Ran came to the 1st Company and 1st Platoon again. As soon as he appeared, he was immediately recognized.

Ye Linghan noticed Qin Ran's figure, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. Pretending to be calm, he walked towards Qin Ran quietly.

"Thank you for the afternoon, this is a thank you gift."

Qin Ran handed something wrapped in a red plastic bag to Ye Linghan.

"What is this?"

After touching it and thinking it was a glass jar, Ye Linghan asked a little strangely.

"A must-have artifact for military training, make sure you can use it soon, I don't like you to beat me."

Pretending to be mysterious, Qin Ran did not immediately announce the answer, so the girl had to wait until she returned to the dormitory to open it to see what was going on.

"I can't imagine that you have been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and you are actually the champion of Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School!"

knew Qin Ran's whereabouts. Ye Linghan had the heart to know the glorious deeds of the boy after a little inquiry.

"I was just lucky, after you guys left. I have nothing to distract myself from, and the only thought is to do well in the college entrance examination. Maybe I wouldn't be in this place today without you. ”

Speaking of these, Qin Ran replied with an emotional tone.

Hearing the word "you", Ye Linghan understood that the boy had always had another person's place in his heart, but fortunately he also included himself, but he didn't know how much he had in it.

"I'm sorry. I couldn't reach out to you and share your joy in the first place. ”

After Ye Linghan was silent for a while, he plucked up his courage and said. Because she knew that the other party had never been able to find her, but she could easily find him.

"It's nothing, everyone has their own struggles. Let alone. Aren't we meeting again now? ”

Smiling, Qin Ran could understand the other party's difficulties.

"How is she?"

Between the two, after all, there is a person's existence that can never be crossed. has already mentioned it, so Ye Linghan took the initiative to ask.

"It's not very clear, at Harvard, she should be fine over there."

Qin Ran's eyes darkened, and he replied in a melancholy tone.

Ye Linghan saw a deep loneliness in the boy's eyes, and she regretted mentioning such a question a little.

When he returned to the dormitory in the evening, Ye Linghan opened the gift given by Qin Ran and saw that it was a jar of old godmother. The food in the base canteen was hard to eat, and she ate very little for dinner today. With the help of the old godmother, Ye Linghan's appetite was temporarily saved, no wonder Qin Ran swore that he dared to make a military order to ensure that he liked it.

The Tianjing government informed Jiangnan Real Estate that it was allowed to pay 30% of the land premium for the four plots of land it had previously auctioned, and the remaining 70% would be paid in installments over a three-year period. This good news proves that Jiangnan Group has begun to establish a friendly relationship with the Tianjing municipal government, and at the same time, it has greatly reduced the group's cash pressure.

It is said that the Tianjing city government is preparing to use the model of super community development to carry out rapid transformation of the old city, and has designated four places in the city for pilot projects. Each pilot will occupy an area of more than 1 million square meters, and is now looking for powerful developers to cooperate with in the country.

Urban renovation and development is a fast way to change the face of the city, not only to collect a large amount of land deposits and withdrawals in a short period of time, but also to bring a large number of tax revenues and jobs. After real estate became the city's key development industry, the Tianjing municipal government was ready to carry out a drastic transformation of the dirty and messy old urban village that had stood in the city for many years, but this project required a large amount of money and the city could not come up with money, so it became an inevitable choice to invite powerful developers to jointly develop.

This news has been confirmed to be true, because the Tianjing municipal government has approached Jiangnan Real Estate.

Zhou Zhidong is very excited about this, because if Jiangnan Real Estate can get a foothold, 1 million square meters of land will be enough for the next three years of development.

But the project is also facing fierce competition, with Hong Kong's strong real estate in the north, and local developers in Yangcheng, which are increasingly strong under the influence of Hong Kong businessmen, also preparing to make a big move into the capital.

Fortunately, Jiangnan Group has experience in renovating old cities in Ningbo City, building a new urban center at the original site and relocating residents on the spot, a model that the Tianjing Municipal Government agrees with. The most troublesome part of the old city renovation is demolition, and if the residents can be properly resettled in place, there will be much less resistance. Such a comprehensive urban transformation involves both Jiangnan real estate and Jiangnan commercial land, so it must compete with the entire group as a unit.

The Tianjing Municipal Government sent a delegation to Ningbo City to inspect the performance of Jiangnan Group's old city renovation, and Xu Jimin, Secretary of the Ningbo Municipal Party Committee, entertained the guests from Tianjing, and praised Jiangnan Group's business. Able to consider local governments, local residents, and based on the principle of sustainable development, Jiangnan Group's old city renovation plan is mature and reliable.

In the transformation of urban villages in the old city, the Tianjing Municipal Government did not use a one-size-fits-all model of bidding, auction and listing, but continued to consider the design plan, company strength, and social evaluation as the CBD headquarters business district.

Jiangnan Group has been selected as one of the 10 candidates in the second round, and if nothing else, it should be able to win one of the fat pieces of the old city renovation.

Among the 4 plots of land that the old city has been renovated, Qin Ran favors the plot that looks the most remote, but is actually close to the CBD of the headquarters. He plans to create the first wealthy district in Tianjing City on this land.

For example, the North American lake villa renovated by the old rose garden project is considered a community where many wealthy people live, but it is caused by objective factors. Because the villas are sold at a high price, those who can afford them are all rich people, and naturally objectively form a place where the rich live.

Now, Qin Ran wants to subjectively create a rich settlement, that is, if you want to live in this place developed by me, you must go through an identity review to prove that you are qualified enough before I sell the house to you.

This is actually a marketing strategy, Tianjing's first rich area, once it is made public, how much spat will be aroused.

As long as the media builds this momentum, the concept of the affluent area will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is believed that it will attract many CBD headquarters CEOs to move in.

People gather by like, things by groups, and the background, identity, and education level of the neighbors are roughly the same, and I believe that the rich should be happy to have such a rich district in Tianjing City.

The renovation of the old city of 1 million square meters is enough for him to carve out ample space to separate the aborigines from the wealthy and carry out an artificial urban planning layout.

In the future, in Tianjing City, where every inch of land is valuable, Qin Ran has begun to plan to intervene in the lucrative high-end luxury housing market, and he has begun a strategic layout for this purpose.

In the future, for first-tier cities such as Tianjing, Hudong, and Yangcheng, while hoarding land for development, Qin Ran will intend to acquire and retain some irreplaceable land located in the core area of the city to suspend development, and then package and develop these lands to create a luxury housing market when the city changes greatly and the land in the central urban area is scarce.

Behind the rapid development of a large number of volume-oriented real estate, Qin Ran also left behind the chess pieces of price-oriented luxury houses that had been sleeping for many years, and they will be an important source of profit for Jiangnan Group. (To be continued......)
