Chapter 355: Have You Seen Someone Buying Land like This?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Upon hearing Hong Dali’s words, Tang Muxin face-palmed. She had underestimated this prodigal, never thinking that he would be so out of control once he came out of Tianjing City—then again, a young master from Tianjing City would naturally feel like he was more superior to others, especially Hong Dali who was the number one prodigal in Tianjing City.

“Forget it, I shall just think of it as you doing charity.” Tang Muxin thought for a while and said. Since there was no use in trying to persuade him otherwise, she might as well think of it as doing something good. “If we think of it this way, it seems quite okay too. Oh right, Dali, don’t you have a school? Why not let the children here go to your school to study? You will be doing some contribution to society that way, what do you think?”

“Huh? That’s a good idea, it’s decided then!” Hong Dali beamed with delight. “I was still fretting about where to get the students from, haha!”

Tang Muxin gave out a long sigh. Humans were unable to prevent this prodigal Hong Dali from squandering anymore. She had tried her best...

Flying was indeed much faster than driving. If they drove to and out from Water Spirit Village, just the bumpiness from the road alone would be a pain. But using the helicopters, they only took half an hour to arrive at the city in charge of Water Spirit Village.

After the helicopters landed on the public square in front of the city hall, the entire city hall’s guards were alarmed—they had often seen people arriving here in luxurious cars, but this was the first time they saw people coming here in helicopters.

It was often said that the type of transportation a person used was very important.

If they had ridden here on bicycles, the guards would have told them that the Mayor was in a meeting, sleeping, eating, or something like that. But if someone came here in a helicopter, the guards would just bring them in directly without any questions.

Obviously, the guards here were like that too. Once Hong Dali and his group alighted, a guard came up and respectfully said, “Are you all here to see the Mayor? Mayor Su is in the conference room on the fifth floor discussing some matters with a visitor from the Qian Family. Do you need me to go and report to him your presence?” His words contained a lot of information. First was that the Mayor’s last name was Su, the second was that he was inside right now, and third was that there was a visitor from the Qian Family.

“Oh, the conference room on the fifth floor? There is no need to trouble you, I can go there myself.” A visitor from the Qian Family? He must definitely be here for that piece of land. Hong Dali rubbed his nose and directly walked inside. “Reward! 1,000!”

A lackey counted the money and gave it to the guard, giving him a look at the same time— the Young Master is here to settle some matters, just pretend that you guys aren’t aware of it.

Those guards who were able to be standing guard here naturally had the ability to read the mood. Compared to the Mayor, someone who could come here by helicopter was definitely someone they couldn’t afford to offend even more than the Mayor. Therefore, the two guards were very cooperative. “OK, please do as you like, do as you like!”

Very quickly, they came to the conference room. Hong Dali knocked on the door and cheerfully asked, “Is Mayor Su inside? I’m looking for Mayor Su for something, can I come in?”

After Hong Dali said that, a deep male voice sounded from inside the room. “Please wait a moment, I’m opening the door.”

Seconds later, the door opened. A middle-aged man looked at Hong Dali and hurriedly welcome him inside. “Hello hello, are you Young Master Dali? Please enter.”

“You have already guessed who I am?” Hong Dali smiled and asked.

“Hehe, someone who’s able to travel in a helicopter and brings along so many people, I reckon that it could only be Young Master Dali.” The Mayor hurriedly replied.

“Yup, your intelligence quotient is quite high.” Hong Dali brought his lackeys and swaggered into the conference room. Upon entering, he immediately saw a bald man inside and directly asked, “You are from the Qian Family?”

The bald man wasn’t able to guess Hong Dali’s intention for coming here, but having the Qian Family as his backing, he didn’t have a need to be afraid of him. Therefore, he decisively nodded and said, “Yes, you are Hong Dali?”

“Yup, it’s me.” Hong Dali didn’t waste any words and directly instructed his lackeys, “Throw him out.”

Then, that person from the Qian Family was thrown out by the lackeys...

“Young Master Dali, you are...” Mayor Su’s head was full of cold sweat, unable to guess Hong Dali’s meaning. “He is from the Qian Family and is here to discuss buying the land at the Water Spirit Village. I don’t think he had offended you, right?”

“Where’s the contract?” Hong Dali ignored his words and directly stretched out his hand. “The contract for the buying of land by the Qian Family.”

Mayor Su wasn’t sure what Hong Dali was trying to do. However, being a person capable of becoming a mayor, naturally, he wasn’t someone stupid. Whatever the case, Hong Dali was someone who could do anything he wanted to in Tianjing City, he definitely wasn’t someone that a small Mayor like him could afford to offend. Thus, he just had to follow his instructions, that’s all. Mayor Su hurriedly took out the contract. “It’s here. It was just stamped, and he hasn’t taken his copy yet.” Then, he carefully asked, “Young Master Dali, you are...”

“Ah, I’m doing a secret investigation.” Hong Dali took the contract and flipped through it. He grinned and said, “Yup, looks like my luck is quite good.” Then, he handed the contract to a lackey beside him. “It’s against the policies, so it’s invalid. Tear it apart.”

“OK, Young Master!” The male lackey instantly tore the contract into pieces.

Mayor Su panicked and asked, “Young Master Dali, why is it against the policies? We followed the normal procedures!”

“I know that.” Hong Dali stared at the Mayor with an innocent expression. “I only realized that there was nothing wrong with the contract after it was torn apart.” Then, he shamelessly said, “But since it’s already torn apart, I don’t any solutions. We can’t just glue it back, right...”

Mayor Su wanted to cry.

This dude Hong Dali was able to control Big Turtle, this matter had caused so much commotion that the entire Heavenly State knew of it. Now, Big Turtle was residing in Fengyuan Lake, and sometimes would let visitors from within the Nation and abroad take pictures of it.

If he said he was here to do a secret investigation, that must probably be true—Mayor Su had heard that the higher-ups were fully supporting Hong Dali in his career. Therefore, he naturally didn’t dare to do anything to Hong Dali. However, the problem of the contract being torn up could be either a big or small one. After all, that was the Qian Family...

“Young Master Dali.” Mayor Su depressingly said, “You won’t have any problem, but I won’t be able to handle the consequences if the Qian Family is angered...”

“Don’t worry, they wouldn’t dare to physically harm you, right?” Hong Dali was nonchalant and said, “Of course, I will compensate you. Yup, do you have a map here?”

“A map?” Mayor Su suspected something and therefore hurriedly took out the map. “Yes, this is it.”

“Yup, things will be easier with a map.” Hong Dali asked, “Which one is Water Spirit Village?”

“This one.” Mayor Su pointed it to Hong Dali. “Young Master Dali, your meaning is...”

“Oh, yup.” Hong Dali looked at Water Spirit Village and directly placed his palm on its location. “I shall buy this place. You can just state a price, I want the land covered by my palm.”

Tang Muxin: “...”

Mayor Su: “...”

The nine lackeys: “...”

Have anyone seem people buying land like this? They haven’t...

Mayor Su hadn’t seen something like this too. His whole body was covered in sweat as he looked at the land covered by Hong Dali’s palm. “Young Master Dali, this... This is a very big piece of land, even the mountains are included inside...”

“Of course.” Hong Dali felt strange and asked, “It wouldn’t be interesting if it was just a small piece of land, right? State your price.”

“Such a big piece of land...” Mayor Su looked at that piece of land, gritted his teeth and said, “If Young Master Dali plans to buy this piece of land, including the mountains, it will cost at least 35 million!”

The land covered by Hong Dali’s palm had Water Spirit Village at the center, a few mountains around the village, and included a small river, 35 million wasn’t a lot for it all. Of course, it wasn’t cheap too—the price of the land here naturally couldn’t be compared to that near Tianjing City.

“35 million?” Hong Dali looked at Ling Xiaoyi and asked, “How is this price?”

“It’s considered OK.” Ling Xiaoyi did a mental calculation, nodded and said, “The price is quite reasonable. However, Young Master, are you really intending on developing this piece of land? There is a lot of mountains, and the land is quite barren too. There isn’t much worth in developing it.”

“That’s not it, I just want to squander.” Hong Dali directly snapped his fingers, grinned and said towards Mayor Su, “I shall give you a whole number, 40 million. Give me some more land there.”

“Huh?” Mayor Su was astonished. “40 million? OK, OK! Oh my, Young Master Dali, you have no idea of how long I have been troubled by the Water Spirit Village’s problem. Because this place is full of mountains and even had swamps a few years back, it’s very hard to build a road there. But with you here, it will be much easier. You can develop it any way you like, I will definitely cooperate, cooperate as best as I can with you!”

“There isn’t a rush in developing it.” It was fine to just buy the land first. As for developing it, Hong Dali hadn’t considered that at all. Of course, he didn’t forget what he had promised. “I will give you 20 million first to build the road. As for the rest, I will think of that later.”

“20 million to build a road?” Mayor Su calculated and felt that it should be enough. He instantly nodded and said, “OK, this amount is enough. Then, I shall contact the construction team to start building the road?” Actually, there wasn’t much of a problem in building the road itself, the problem lied in the cost. Previously, their budget wasn’t enough, so they weren’t able to build the road. But now, with Hong Dali paying for it, there naturally wasn’t any problem.

The issue was settled—actually, many a time, discussing such matters wasn’t difficult, as long as the money was enough...

“Oh my, it feels so comfortable spending money.” Hong Dali lay on the sofa in satisfaction. “Sister Xiaoyi, the rest shall depend on you. I’m too lazy to look at the contract and such, I shall just be in charge of stamping it.”

“Okay, Young Master.”

Since Hong Dali had already decided, Ling Xiaoyi instantly drew up the contract with Mayor Su and finally came to an agreement—they would buy over Water Spirit Village and the mountains around it for 40 million. It would include Water Spirit Village, 16 mountains, and some other pieces of land in the area.

After all the documents were prepared, three hours had already passed. In that time, Hong Dali was reading novels and then sleeping. After everything was settled, Hong Dali took out his seal and stamped it on the documents.

Mayor Su instantly broke down mentally upon seeing it—”Squandering for the sake of the rise of Heavenly State, Hong Dali seal!”
