Chapter 142 Land Economy

The next morning, when Mr. Xu woke up, he let go of his worries.

This is a good habit he has developed over the years. If you have a big sleep, you won’t affect your mood the next day.

After asking Xu Fan that he was fine, he felt completely relieved.

When having breakfast with Hu Zhi, who was visiting a friend yesterday, Mr. Xu was already chatting and laughing as usual, and he couldn't see any trouble.

"What is this mess at home compared to the swords and shadows in the court?" Xu Ge Lao said lightly while blowing the heat of the chicken porridge.

"It's best if Mr. Cunzhai thinks this way." Hu Zhi was stunned by the sound of his hearing. He didn't understand why Mr. Xu knew that the third brother was going to deal with the eldest brother, but insisted on beating Xu Fan.

"This is what Xu Fan deserves. I just regret that this beat was too late, so I should have beaten him up long ago to make him sober." Xu Jie said softly:

"As for why I fulfilled the third brother's wishes, because in Huating, the eldest brother and I are guests at present, and the third brother is the master... Is it reasonable for the guest to follow the host's wishes?"

"This..." Hu Zhi finally understood why Mr. Xu didn't go back to his old house in Nanchan Temple because he didn't feel like he was home there.

"What should I do if the boss?" Hu Zhi couldn't help asking.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so I won't worry about that anymore." Mr. Xu didn't want to talk about this issue, so he ate a bite of chicken porridge and said, "I always feel something is wrong, but I can't remember it."

"Dongweng thought slowly." Hu Zhi smiled and said, "By the way, did you reject Shao Fang yesterday?"

"Oh, that's all, why didn't he come yesterday?" Mr. Xu was a little surprised.

After saying that, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he called the butler in and said, "Have Shao Fang been here yesterday?"

The housekeeper knew about Shao Daxia and shook his head and said, "The villain has never heard from the door."

After saying that, he felt a thrill in his heart, remembering the famous thorn sent by the door yesterday. But before he could figure it out, he didn't dare to tell the old man.

"What's going on?" Xu Jie said strangely: "No more?"

"Who knows? These people in the world are very unreliable," Hu Zhi ate a mochi and almost choked to death. He pounded his chest with his small fist and then said with a relaxed sigh: "If you don't come, he is a liar."

"Yeah." Xu Jiexin said, and he could only understand this way. He no longer missed him.

Seeing this, the housekeeper pretended that nothing had happened and he didn't go and was looking for trouble.

At about the same time, Gu Dadong came to Nanshan Temple with a pair of dark circles and cotton.

"It's done!" He slapped the contract covered with seals on the dining table. Then he sat on the chair and said excitedly and tiredly:

"You can't accept your old age. I played for a few nights and was still fierce during the day. After only one night, I felt like my whole body was about to fall apart."

"That won't be true. Today, I will be on behalf of the county and Kunkaisi to welcome the distinguished guests."

Zhao Hao picked up the contract and looked at it. He saw a total of fifteen families who signed and stamped, all of which were famous and famous in the county.

Among them, Gu, Dai, Mao, Zhou, and Zheng each paid 60,000 taels, each holding three shares. Zhi family, Gui family and other ten companies paid 20,000 taels, each occupying one point. Fifteen companies paid a total of 500,000 taels of silver, sharing one-quarter of Kunkaisi's equity.

"Me?" Gu Dadong was incredulous.

"Yes, after discussion and decision by the two major shareholders, the brother will serve as the chairman of Kunshan Development Company." Zhao Hao smiled slightly. In fact, the so-called two major shareholders are him and his father.

Mr. Zhao stretched out his hand to Gu Dadong and said, "I hope Chairman Gu can live up to the high expectations of shareholders and lead Kunshan Development Company to achieve great success!"

"Me?" Gu Dadong pointed to his nose and said, "Can a person like me take on this important task?"

"I believe that I will do it." Zhao Hao's hand was still hanging there, his smile as refreshing as the spring breeze: "I'm a person who has built the 'brother tower'."

"Brother, I know this..."

Gu Dadong couldn't help but smile embarrassedly. Although his original intention was not so authentic, it was the only thing he had done in his life that was praised.

This feeling of being trusted and entrusted with important responsibilities is really great.

He felt a heat flowing in his chest. After a while, he finally focused his head and held Zhao Hao's hand tightly. He gritted his teeth and promised:

"I will do my own thing and prove your vision!"

"I believe you." Zhao Hao smiled and pulled out his tightly clenched hand and reminded him: "Eat some breakfast and have a good sleep, and set off after an hour. Chairman Gu."

"Okay." Gu Dadong focused on the key point, and the title of "Chairman Gu" felt great.

Well, I am now a 'sensible chief'. Who dares to say that I am ignorant in the future?

Nanshan Temple, in the Great Hall.

Magistrate Zhao sat cross-legged on the futon and had breakfast with the three assistants.

Unfortunately, I was uneasy because County Magistrate He was talking and advising him to not be rude to develop vulgarity.

Bai Zhubu and Xiong Dianshi sat down with him. In this situation, they couldn't move their chopsticks. They sat there with one look wandering and the other looked squinting.

"Sir, think about it, Shitang is piled up with silver. How much does it cost to have a sixty-mile Shitang?" County Magistrate He said with great thought:

"Our county has already owed a lot of debts, how can we repair that thing?"

"Ah, didn't you say it?" Mr. Zhao yawned and said, "The county doesn't have to pay."

"There is no breakfast in this world that costs money." County Chief He didn't believe there was such a good thing: "There is also the food delivered to the county one after another, which is a total of 40,000 shi, right?"

The last question is Bai Zhubu.

The white chief clerk nodded sadly when he heard this. He clearly came first... Oh no, I clearly took care of the money and grain. But I couldn't even touch a grain of rice, so why did Lao Bai take advantage of me... Oh no, I'm performing my duties.

"Forty thousand stones of grain, sir, the current market is 80,000 taels of silver, right?" County Magistrate He slapped the table excitedly and said, "Which fool would give us so much money for nothing? I think this is a conspiracy, sir!"

When Mr. Zhao heard this, he was so angry that he dared to call my son a fool. He couldn't help but glared: "Your damn mouth is cleaner, and I'll swear or not!"

"Uh..." County Chief He twitched his mouth twice, thinking about who was not clean?

There is no way, who can make the magistrate and the county magistrate? I had to bow my head in depressedness to admit my mistakes, guarantee to speak civilized words and be civilized people.

"Hey, I originally planned to announce it again at the official ceremony. Since you are so impatient, let's talk to you." Zhao Shouzheng glanced at County Chief He. Some people, from the first time they met, they wanted to bully him.

To Mr. Zhao Ershi, County Magistrate He is such a person.

Zhao Shouzheng told the three of them about the setup of Kunshan Development Company and the general business in advance.

The three of them were stunned for a moment. Even Xiong Dianshi, who was so cruel that he couldn't help but fall off his chin.

It's definitely an unheard of new tricks!

Zhao Shouzheng told them that the county did not need to pay a penny, and the Kunshan Development Company would advance funds to repair the dike.

The price of the county's comeback is just the abandoned land that is now given away for free and has no one to ask for. After the embankment is completed, the abandoned land that has been soaked in the water for many years has become fertile fields.

What's even more awesome is that the land ownership is still in the county, and it is only rented to Kunshan Development Company for 99 years - and only for 20 years without rent, and then the rent will be collected normally.

From beginning to end, even the most harsh censor could not say that Zhao Erye and the county were not bad!
