Chapter 44: Terrible Thoughts

"Hello, Qiongzhou City, Qionghai Province, the southernmost tip of the motherland, is about to arrive. Please be prepared. Finally, you are very welcome to take this flight. Goodbye."

With the sweet radio of the flight attendant, indicating that they had arrived at their destination, Zhou Ming and Su Han and Zhang Lin lined up to get off the plane from the passenger elevator. When the cabin door opened, a wet heat came to his face, making Zhou Ming, who came from Jing Chu who was in the middle of spring, very uncomfortable, and had to take off his coat outside again.

Zhou Ming is still so decisive in his work. Since he decided to come to Qionghai, he immediately bought a plane ticket and set off.

There is only one old airport in Qionghai now, and it is located in the city center of the provincial capital Qiongzhou, so it took only a quarter of an hour to arrive at the hotel.

They put all their luggage in the hotel and went out to buy a car first. Although Qiongzhou is not much different from a small county town now, it is always more convenient to have a car. Of course, the most important thing is that Zhou Ming is not short of money at all!

When the test drive was completed and the salesman handed over the key to Zhou Ming, he looked at Zhou Ming a few times and said, "Look at the boss, you are so rich, you must be here to speculate in real estate, right? My uncle happened to have a set of Yingxiu real estate project drawings. If the boss wants it, I can help you build a link and let my uncle sell the drawings to you a little cheaper."

"Is your uncle also speculating on real estate?" Zhou Ming was a little surprised. He had a sudden inspiration, "So what is the price of what you call cheap?"

The salesman scratched his head: "This is not something I can decide. If you really have an idea, boss, I will give you my uncle's number and contact him yourself."

Zhou Ming nodded and said yes, and then the salesman gave Zhou Ming a number.

After getting this number, Zhou Ming was filled with emotion: "I didn't expect that Qionghai's speculation has become so crazy. We can actually encounter a real estate speculator in the time we buy a car."

"Then this also proves that Zhou Ming's judgment is correct. This situation is very pathological." Su Han said, "So are we going to Qiongya Building now?"

Before coming to Qionghai, Zhou Ming and Su Han asked Du Peng for information about Qionghai. They knew that the most speculative trend in Qionghai is the real estate market, and this Qiongya Building is an emerging business office building. Because there are too many real estate companies in place, this building has gradually become the largest and most concentrated real estate trading center in Qionghai.

Zhou Ming thought about this for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need for now, let's take a look around first."

The first place they went to was Yingxiu mentioned by the salesman before. It was a small town located in western Qiongzhou near Moon Bay, and it was a piece of land sold by the Qionghai Municipal Government.

It took Zhou Ming and his team a full hour to arrive in Yingxiu Town.

"My God! Is this the most potential and most valuable place in Qionghai? It's too exaggerated to not even repair the road, right?" Su Han exclaimed in surprise when he got off here.

It’s not that Su Han is so surprised. The situation here is really not worthy of compliment.

If you want to be rich, you will first build roads. This is a very popular slogan. In fact, it is the same. Just imagine that if a place is inconvenient to transportation, there will be no development value. It can be said that transportation is the foundation of the economy.

But Yingxiu does not have a complete road here. From here, it connects to Yusha District is a muddy road with potholes everywhere. Moreover, Qionghai is located in a tropical area and often rains, which leads to mud and puddles everywhere on the road. No matter how you look at it, it is a remote countryside, and it doesn’t look like it is about to be developed.

Of course, when I arrived at the place, Zhou Ming did see a construction site, but it was only limited to the construction site. It was a piece of muddy land with a bulldozer and a truck parked on the side of the road. There were three workers playing cards in a shed at the door. No matter how you look at it, there were no construction here. However, on the side of the road, you could see more than a dozen people, who pretended to be wearing safety helmets and drawings, discussing something.

Someone there saw Zhou Ming's car parked on the side of the road, and someone immediately ran over to ask: "Does the boss also come to see the construction site?"

Zhou Ming said without comment: "Can you give me a brief introduction? I won't get off the bus if I have a cleanliness obsession."

The man immediately took out a stack of drawings: "Since you come here, you must know that this place will be developed into a tourist resort, backed by Moon Bay, which is a beautiful beach that needs to be developed urgently. According to the latest plans of the Central Committee and the Qionghai Provincial Government, this place will be built into the center of the Qionghai tourism industry in the future, so I can fully guarantee you to the boss that the value here is unlimited!"

He then pointed behind him and said carefully, "Boss, you see the people over there, they are also here to visit the construction site, and they all show high interest in this land, so if you want it, you have to hurry up, otherwise I can't guarantee the next second. I think you must make a lot of money, so don't consider it?"

"Then can you give us a copy of the drawings and let's take them back and consider them carefully?" Zhou Ming asked.

The man smiled and said, "Boss, you are a layman. What we sell is drawings and design concepts. If you don't plan to buy it, we will not be able to hand it over to you."

"That's it, I'm sorry I'm rash, so I don't need to see you again."

After Zhou Ming said this, he rolled up the car window and signaled Zhang Lin to drive away. The man didn't seem to have expected Zhou Ming to turn around and leave so simply. He was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he wanted to take pictures of Zhou Ming's car window again, but Zhou Ming was not interested in listening again.

"Even the house was not built, but the land and project were all bought?" Su Han didn't understand.

Zhou Ming smiled: "That's why it's called speculation. They don't really want to build houses, they just want to speculate on prices. After getting the land, they beat the drums and pass the flowers to the next person."

"This is too terrible and abnormal!" Su Han sighed, and she then asked, "Then where will we go next?"

"Blue Sky New District." Zhou Ming replied.

According to the information given by Du Peng, Zhou Ming knew that Lantian District was the location of Qionghai Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and Lantian New District, Qionghai, was the first commercial land to be sold after it was designated as a special zone.

After washing the car that drove out of the mud, Zhou Ming and the others arrived at the Blue Sky New District.

Zhou Ming and Su Han got out of the car, and what was shown in front of them was a busy construction site. Tower cranes were like towering giants, slowly building tall buildings covered with green veils next to them. There were walls everywhere for idle people to enter the construction site. On the road, large trucks carrying materials, bricks and stones were coming and going.

"This is a bit like a special zone. The Yingxiu just now is really bad!" Su Han said to Zhou Ming, "I have been to Nanjiang before. I think the situation here is very similar to Nanjiang. It seems that there is still a different plan."

Zhou Ming frowned: "But I still feel something is wrong."

Su Han was a little surprised: "Zhou Ming, have you seen something?"

Zhou Ming still shook his head: "I can't say it, it's just a feeling. Although these construction sites are indeed working hard now, and this is also a key planned area in Qionghai Province, I still feel that there is something wrong. After all, if the miracle of Nanjiang is so easy to replicate, it is not a miracle."

"Zhou Ming, you don't have to be too anxious. After all, we have only arrived in Qionghai. If it was so easy to see the problem, I'm afraid the speculation here would not last for so long and still be so hot. Someone must have seen it, so all these speculative guys will run away." Su Han comforted Zhou Ming.

"But I am different from them. I know there is something wrong here." Zhou Ming said.

Zhou Ming had to be in a hurry. According to his memory of rebirth, he knew very well that Qionghai's real estate bubble was very serious, and even reached a shocking level. More importantly, by time, it has reached a critical point that can explode at any time, but he has not seen the problem.

And there is another thing. When Zhou Ming was flying over, he suddenly thought of the wave of laid-offs in a few years.

Perhaps the understanding of ordinary people is just a pain of the transformation of economic transformation in reform and opening up, but Zhou Ming learned that major central enterprises and state-owned enterprises in various places are investing in Qionghai's real estate in a crazily manner. In the information given by Du Peng, the loan amount of the four major banks about Qionghai has exceeded 100 billion.

This scale can no longer be described as horror. Zhou Ming suddenly thought that Qionghai was like a huge economic black hole, causing these companies to invest money in crazily. Then when the bomb suddenly detonated, both banks, central enterprises and state-owned enterprises in various places would suffer heavy losses, which led to a wave of laid-offs. That was because these companies across the country could no longer afford it after this loss, so they could only choose to lay off employees and sell assets.

Zhou Ming firmly believes that wealth will not evaporate, but will only transfer. Since these state-owned enterprises and state-owned enterprises in various places have lost so much, who will make this money?

If it were before, Zhou Ming would have thought it was the big guys who were active in the business world in the future. After all, Zhou Ming had seen many big guys admit that he had made his first pot of gold from Qionghai.

But now when Zhou Ming knew that Lai Xingcheng had cooperation with foreign wealthy families and that Lai Xingcheng was most involved in Qionghai speculation, Zhou Ming had a very terrible idea: this is a conspiracy of the foreigners! They understood their purpose of returning to China, and they wanted to take away the money that might be cooperating with them, so that they would lack a great help in the next world of capital war.

Zhou Ming couldn't make sure, but the more he thought about it, the more likely he was. This was why Zhou Ming went straight to the land of various projects and the properties under construction after getting off the plane. He needed to come up with a solution as early as possible.

But Zhou Ming couldn't explain these words clearly to Su Han.

And now it seems that I overestimate myself!

Zhou Ming thought helplessly.
Chapter completed!
