215 Family Meeting Part Seventeen

"What happened, what happened?" Upon hearing the male lackey's loud cries, all of them instantly ran together towards him, anxiously saying as they ran, "How's Young Master? Don't you scare us!"

That male lackey said loudly, "Quickly watch the news, all of you! Young Master is unmatched, absolutely unmatched!"

Everyone gathered together in front of the television—it was currently broadcasting the news broadcast.

Very quickly, the voice of the anchorwoman sounded. "This report is in accordance with the latest resolution passed down from the government. Due to the unique location, beautiful surroundings, and bountiful travel resources available at the West Fourth Loop in Tianjing City, the government has decided to increase the speed of development there. The exact plan is as follows…"

Once this piece of news was broadcasted, everyone was dumbfounded.

Tang Muxin stared intently at the television screen, shocked. "The land that Dali bought, it's all at the West Fourth Loop…"

All of a sudden, the small lass hugged Li Nianwei, so excited that tears streamed down her face. "Dali's lands are all at the West Fourth Loop! The estates that he'd bought—Fengyuan Lake, the outer area of Tianjing Mountain! And there's still those that Uncle Hong had bought! More than one billion! More than one billion!"

"This… This…" Ling Xiaoyi was shocked as well. "That's over one billion worth of land. With this development policy, it will increase in multiple folds in a few years' time! Young Master, Young Master can finally hold his head up high this time!"

Li Nianwei, on the other hand, heaved a long sigh of relief. At this time, she recalled her previous conversation with Zhang Cai.

What they were curious about now was what kind of interesting ideas Hong Dali would be able to come up with from now onwards.

However, even she didn't expect that it would actually cause such a big happening!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

The government was going to develop the West Fourth Loop. Additionally, there was one billion worth of land, and this time, with the shares as well—that was really…

Thinking up till this point, Li Nianwei's did her trademark gentle smile while covering her mouth, saying, "I think that this time, those people in the big conference room must really be going crazy, right? Young Master's luck is really…"

"Hee hee, Dali's luck is unmatched!" Pride was written all over Tang Muxin's face. "He's just getting more money by squandering more! This world is really mystical, hee hee."

"Yes." Li Nianwei nodded. "Young Master can be said to be the biological son of Heaven for having such good luck."

Tang Muxin added, "And he's definitely the only son!"

…

In Lin Chuyin's laboratory.

"Mm, the installation is finally done." Lin Chuyin stared expressionlessly at the computer screen, looking at the parameter settings as she mumbled. "The underwater oxygen breathing system, the underwater lighting, the underwater communication equipment, and the strong anti-pressure water-resistant suit have all merged together. This time, it can definitely dive into that underground lake.

"En, the installation and set-up these few days have been very successful without any loopholes. There shouldn't be a problem with the production volume." Upon thinking up to here, Lin Chuyin tilted her head to one side. "Mm, maybe I should go tell Dali about it?"

Thinking up till here, Lin Chuyin started reconsidering. "But why would I think of telling him?"

That was truly a little abnormal. After all, Lin Chuyin herself had no feelings. Even if the experimental set-up was successful, she wouldn't easily think of personally telling Dali that.

Thus, with regards to this type of feeling, Lin Chuyin was very lost. "Mm, might this be the meaning of being in cahoots with someone?"

After she thought for a while again, Lin Chuyin went online to search again for the meaning of being in cahoots with someone. English: Work in collusion with each other. The Wolf and Bei(an animal with long back legs and short forelegs) set out together to hunt other animals. The Wolf uses its forelegs while the Bei uses its back legs. They can run fast together and also climb high. It means to collude together and do something evil."

However, upon looking it up till here, she was a little confused again. "Am I doing bad things with him? It doesn't seem like it."

Soon after, she started to look up for other phrases. This time, what she found was "good friend," but the terms this time were more complicated. Lin Chuyin spent a long time looking before she suddenly found a set of explanation that was closer to what she'd expected. "Able to help you in times of adversity, able to help you in life, social contact and other areas, without any selfish motives involved—that can be said to be a friend."

"Mm, what had he helped me with?" Lin Chuyin recalled that set of Virtual Reality Projection technology. "It can be said so."

"Did he have any selfish motives?" Lin Chuyin recalled the blank and adorable easygoing expression on Hong Dali's face again and decisively shook her head. "For now, I haven't discovered that. Thus, it can be said to be none of that."

"Then, in this case, should I address him as… friend?" Lin Chuyin looked up at the ceiling. "Mm, then with the newly invented setup, maybe I should… be with my friend?"

Thinking up till this point, Lin Chuyin finally confirmed that and mumbled to herself, "Then maybe I should go find him…"

…

"Boss, there's news from Miss Chuyin's side." Bai Lang put down the communicator, turned around and said to Big Brother, Mu Huishou.

"Oh? Did they say where Chuyin was going to?" Mu Huishou hurriedly asked.

"The brothers over there said, " Bai Lang reported, "that Miss Chuyin was carrying three sets of clothing and a helmet that looks like it's designed with a diving setup on top. After she packed them all into the car, she went towards the north."

"En? Three sets of clothing and a diving helmet? Heading north?" Mu Huishou thought for a while, then smacked the table. "She's definitely going to find that mascot. That mascot should be attending the family meeting today, right? It happens to be in the north!"

Speaking up to this point, Mu Huishou waved his hand. "Let's go, and bring that guy called Bighead along as well. We'll do Hong Dali a favor while we're at it!"

…

It was chaotic outside due to the news of the country's intention to develop the West Fourth Loop, causing a drastic and tumultuous change of events. However, Hong Dali was still sleeping soundly, and even the sound of thunder wouldn't succeed in waking him up. That really proved that sentence sung by Liang Yifeng: "Not afraid of thunder, wind, and rain."

His thoughtless way of sleeping contrasted with the really agitated Hong Tu up on the platform.

Speaking of which, even with the Hong Family's capital, they really couldn't ignore the prospect of the value of the land worth over one billion increasing to a value of 10 billion in a flash. After all, when a family had reached a certain level, it would be almost impossible to advance further.

Even for the Number One genius of the family, Mu Yuxi, she could only earn a yearly net profit close to 100 million.

But what about Hong Dali's side? Due to the land he bought, it would probably not be a problem to increase the value to 10 billion within a few years' time. That kind of shocking speed, who wouldn't be agitated? Who would be able to turn a blind eye to that?

Thus, Hong Tu took the phone, pressed the hands-free button, and directly phoned Hong Weiguo's number.

The call was quickly answered, and Hong Weiguo's excited voice sounded through the phone. "Old Elder, what's the matter?" Although they were father and son, Hong Weiguo, however, naturally knew that at this time during the family meeting, he could only address him by his honorific title.

Upon seeing that those two were now speaking on the phone, everyone immediately became silent.

They were curious, too, about how that Fifth Uncle managed to do it. It had to be known that land was not something that could be acquired with just money, the problem of whether the residents were willing to move out was something to be considered as well.

Hong Tu's objective, meanwhile, was exactly that.

"Heh heh, Weiguo, I heard that you'd bought quite a lot of land at the West Fourth Loop, have you watched the news broadcast?" Hong Tu smiled and asked.

"I watched it, heh heh. Old Elder, I've invested a total of 1.2 billion in lands over there. I reckon that it will increase greatly in value." Now that the development policy had been announced, there was no need to hide the news of the land he'd bought.

"En." Hong Tu slowly asked, "You did a good job in buying that land. Oh right, Weiguo, from what I know, there's quite a lot of open spaces over there, right? Looks like the land you bought had quite a number of households there, right? What's been done to make them sell it?"

"About the West Fourth Loop…" Once that was brought up, Hong Weiguo's expression was the same as that of the secretary Xiao Liu—extremely strange. "Actually… that has something to do with my Dali."

Once he said that, everyone below in the conference room was instantly shocked.

What kind of ability did Hong Dali have to make all those civilians sell their houses?

"It has something to do with Dali?" Hong Tu didn't know where to cry or laugh. "This can be related to Dali as well? Tell me, what exactly is the situation, how is it related to him?"

Hong Weiguo's voice now was rather interesting. "The cause of the situation was because Dali raised dogs…"

Cough cough cough! Hong Tu almost choked to death because of what he said. "You said that the reason so many people sold their houses and moved away was that Dali raised dogs?"

Everyone below was completely shocked as well. This was the first time they heard that raising dogs could produce such an effect—that was definitely cheating!

Mu Yuxi, too, was shocked till her eyes opened very widely, and her small mouth opened and couldn't close for a long time.

"That's right!" Hong Weiguo laughed loudly and said, "The dogs barked all day long. As long as one dog started to bark, the rest followed. The residents there weren't able to sleep in peace."

"So they decided to sell their houses away? Just because of that?" Hong Tu's eyes stared widely.

"Actually, it wasn't that simple." Hong Weiguo said, "They considered that they wouldn't suffer losses by selling their houses to that prodigal Dali of ours anyway. By then, they could use that money to buy the new houses that we built, and the only difference in between would only be the renovation fee, which wasn't much anyway. That was akin to swapping their old house for a new one, so they all came and asked."

Hong Tu knew by this time why Ling Xiaoyi had previously waited to talk about those dogs towards the end. She was actually waiting over here all along. "You're saying that the reason why those people who weren't willing to move was due to those dogs that Dali purchased?!"

"Yes." What Hong Weiguo said was very comical. "Those four hundred dogs that he purchased cost 300,000 to 400,000, maybe. Afterward, it solved the problem that may not be solved even if we were to spend a few hundred thousand."

"Oh, my heart…" Hong Tu clasped his chest and lay on the chair, gasping for breath. "Four hundred dogs caused a lot of residents to take the initiative to move houses… This… a few hundred thousand was exchanged for this result…"

Soon after, at this point, Hong Weiguo gave everyone the ultimate blow. "What shocked me the most was that the lad really purchased those dogs for fun to squander back then…"
