Why was that so? Why exactly was that so?

Hong Weiguo and Hong Tu stared at each other. They really didn't have an idea why Hong Dali had sold the land and said the figure of “7,888,888,888.”

However, Hong Dali didn't really do anything that caused him to suffer losses though he usually squandered. Even if it was the strange act of raising dogs, it had created a very great effect as well. But now, he said he'd sold all the land except that piece at Fengyuan Lake.

Why exactly was that so?

Fengyuan Lake wasn't sold because there wouldn't be any s.p.a.ce to put Big Turtle and Changjiang Gold cruise s.h.i.+p in that case? That was reasonable, yet not very reasonable at the same time. But at the moment, Hong Weiguo could be certain that this time, what Hong Dali intended to do was definitely not as simple as squandering out of boredom.

“Mm, this matter has to be examined.” Hong Tu asked, “Weiguo, what did Dali say to you today? Do you still remember?”

Normally speaking, people who had advanced till Hong Weiguo's status wouldn't have too bad a memory. Thus, Hong Weiguo was quite certain as he answered, “Dali said, 'I find those pieces of land too troublesome, and just then someone came to buy them, so I sold all of them', then he said, 'Oh right, I didn't sell the land at Fengyuan Lake. That Changjiang Golden Cruise and Big Turtle are all there, I won't have any s.p.a.ce to put them after I sell them', this was the second sentence. '7,888,888,888', this was the third sentence. 'This figure is auspicious, right?' This was the fourth sentence. Then he went out to play.”

“Mm, then let us a.n.a.lyze them sentence by sentence.” Hong Tu slowly said, “The first sentence, 'I find those pieces of land too troublesome, and just then someone came to buy them, so I sold all of them'. This sentence seems very simple, being the reason why he sold the land. But the significance of this sentence is definitely not so simple. Weiguo, look, he finds those pieces of land too troublesome, but you are the one managing all those pieces of land, while he leaves them there and basically doesn't bother about them at all. Yet, he finds them troublesome. What's there for him to find troublesome about?”

“Dad, hearing you say this, I've realized something too.” Hong Weiguo's eyes lit up. “What's there for him to find troublesome about? It doesn't involve his energy… Wait, involving energy? Involving energy?”

Hong Weiguo's eyes lit up the more he spoke, and he suddenly said, “Dad, do you think it's about this matter?” Speaking up to this point, Hong Weiguo had finally reacted somewhat to the situation. “Dad, do you remember that large piece of barren land in the middle of the outer area of Tianjing Mountain and West Fourth Loop? Does Dali mean to get us to transfer the construction team at those lands that he sold out to that barren piece of land?”

“Mm? That piece of land?” Hong Tu suddelny understood. “What Dali means is that we should s.h.i.+ft our focus of development onto that piece of land? Weiguo, do you think perhaps we're a little too far-fetched? Could Dali possibly be so far-sighted?”

“Far-sighted?” Hong Tu's words had caused Hong Weiguo to be stuck. “Speaking of which, Dali doesn't seem to be the far-sighted type of person no matter how I look at him. Then, Dad, what you mean is that Dali is not thinking this way?”

Hong Tu shook his head and said, “That's not the case. Actually, what I mean is that we seem to have a.n.a.lyzed this in the wrong direction.”

As he spoke, he took another sip of tea and cleared his throat. “Dali might not have thought so much. This child has all along been lucky, I feel that he does many things according to how he feels like. He wanted to sell it, thus he did. It's that simple. As for that other complicated stuff, it's very possible that they didn't even come across his mind before.”

“This…” Hong Tu's words make Hong Weiguo at a loss for what else to say. “Then, you mean…”

“What I mean is very simple.” Hong Tu humphed. “Dali is lucky and has good taste, his instincts are more accurate, and his ideas are very good too. But he has the biggest flaw, which is him lacking in the ability to carry things out.”

“Lacking in the ability to carry things out?” Hong Weiguo mumbled for a while and then said, “You mean that Dali is suitable to suggest his ideas and thoughts, but it still mainly depends on us to figure out exactly how to develop his ideas and earn money?”

“More or less.” Hong Tu nodded. “Think about it, most of the things that he's done were because he had a sudden inspiration and had an idea. Afterward, he played around with it blindly and after which, it earned him money. Though he's truly lucky, the core aspect lies in his ideas, or rather, instincts. So, what we need to do at the moment is to think of a way to increase the benefits to the max.” After saying that, Hong Tu carefully thought for a while again, then slowly said, “About the matter of the sale of the land this time, we can't act rashly. Weiguo, you're now working with Liu Yihui and Mu Tie, right? Invite the two of them over. It's evidently insufficient for just two of us to deal with this matter. Dali has great wisdom, but there are many things that get more difficult to handle the greater the wisdom gets. But once we fully see through it, there'll definitely be great benefits.”

“Alright! Then I'll invite them both over.” Hong Weiguo instantly made the decision. “Dad, wait for a while, I'll bring them to the estate later.”

“Mm, OK.” Hong Tu nodded in agreement.

Chenhui Building.

“What? Dali, you've actually sold all your land?!” Tang Muxin carried Little Meow and her little mouth opened in an 'O' shape, as she exclaimed, “It had the potential to be worth at least 10 billion and above, and you've sold it just like that?!”

“Yes.” Hong Dali sniffled. “I found those pieces of land too troublesome, so I've sold them all. The other party has sufficient funds, and moreover, it's cash. That's not too bad, heh heh. In that case, I'd have sufficient engineers to develop the city campus!”

“Oh G.o.d!” Tang Muxin raged. “You've sold all the land just for this? Is it necessary to squander to this extent!”

He'd sold all his land at once, this made Tang Muxin puzzled no matter how much she thought about it.

How could he sell them all? Why is that so…

However, after all, she was a very smart girl. Thus, she figured out that there was something unusual very soon. “Dali, you must have something that you didn't tell me, it must be the case!” As she spoke, she went forward to pinch Hong Dali's face and rubbed his face into all sorts of looks. “Quickly say it! You must have some plan, right?”

“Young Master,” Li Nianwei also felt strange as she said, “Young Master wouldn't do such things easily, so there must be some sort of reason this time. Could you tell us about it? So we can understand it better too?”

“Enough, enough, pain, pain!” Hong Dali helplessly shrugged his shoulders. “It's really not that I'm unwilling to talk about this matter, but the main thing is that heaven's secrets must not be divulged. If I say it out now, it'll turn ineffective! Ineffective!”

“You make it seem so mysterious!” Tang Muxin pouted and mumbled, “Alright, anyway, you haven't done many stupid things to squander, so this time there should be a reason to it as well.” As she spoke, she suddenly asked again, “Then you should at least reveal some information to us, right? Choose something you can tell us so that we'd be rest a.s.sured. This can be done, right?”

It was understandable that she was anxious. Whoever got to know of this would be anxious as well.

“I've already said that it's heaven's secret…” Hong Dali sniffled. “Then I'll just say a little bit of what can be said—with just Li Yuanshou's construction team alone, how long would he need to take before he manages to develop that large piece of land at the outer area of Tianjing Mountain? So I'm planning to transfer some of the construction team over there to increase the speed of development of that area. Anyway, the nation has given me that piece of land for free, so it's definitely worthier to develop it than the West Fourth Loop area, don't you think so?”

“It's more worth it to develop it than developing the West Fourth Loop?” Tang Muxin mumbled for quite some time, after which, her eyes suddenly lit up. “Dali, are you trying to say that the nation is planning to develop that area, and it just happened that it gave you the piece of land there, therefore you sold the rest of the land once you saw that someone wanted to buy it? Mm, wait while I think about it further.” As she spoke, Tang Muxin carried Little Meow and pranced around on the spot for a few times, and the more she turned around, the more her eyes lit up. Then, she smiled and said, “Hee hee, Dali, I have to admit that your luck is really good!”

“Miss Muxin, you've understood?” Li Nianwei looked left and right. Currently, there were only four people including her, Hong Dali, Tang Muxin and Ling Xiaoyi. They should all be insiders, thus she hurriedly asked in a small voice, “Then, Miss Muxin, can you explain? I'm quite curious about it too.”

“OK, anyway, there aren't any outsiders here.” Tang Muxin smiled. “Sister Nianwei, think about it. The nation definitely wouldn't be willing to spend tens of years to develop that large piece of land at the outer area of Tianjing Mountain, right? So the speed of development must be sped up. Moreover, Dali is in charge of managing that piece of land, so it can't intervene in the short run. But what about in the long run? According to the current speed of development, it'll take at least over 10 years to develop it to a certain scale, right? Normally, there would be about a 5-year plan for that, but 5 years is obviously not enough to develop such a big piece of land, especially since Dali currently only has one construction team.”

Tang Muxin asked, “In that case, what would the final outcome be?”

“Final outcome…” Li Nianwei thought for a while, then said with certainty, “The nation would definitely recall that piece of land and develop it by itself.”

“Right, but the problem lies here.” Tang Muxin slowly said, “That piece of land has been given for free at the moment, but it would be reclaimed if the speed of development is slow. So, what Dali is thinking about is that instead of waiting for that piece of land to be reclaimed, he might as well increase the speed of development. Anyway, the potential of the price of the land at West Fourth Loop increasing is just so-so, thus he might as well sell it away and convert it into cash. In this case, with both the funds and the construction team, the land at the outer area of Tianjing Mountain can be developed in full force. And in fact, that means that the funds earned from the sale of the other pieces of land won't suffer from many losses even if it's put into the bank with interests involved within the period where the land at West Fourth Loop is developed. But that means that we've practically gained a super big piece of land for real!

“Moreover, this piece of land truly belongs to us. By then, according to the nation's policy, we can do constructions on this piece of land however we want to! Didn't Dali say that he wanted to start up a sci-fi town? If he wants to construct a sci-fi town, it'll require a large amount of liquid capital. Now, they've basically placed the money into our hands, and told us 'feel free to do as you like, let us be the naive ones!'”
