Chapter 201: Chapter 170 Land Obtained (Seeking Subscription!)_1 By now, all construction materials from the site had been cleared. The prefabricated houses and sheds operated by the construction company were also disassembled and moved to their new material storage site. From the lingering evidence, it was clear that there used to be even more prefab buildings on the site. According to the old security guard, this place once served as a long-term dormitory for the company’s construction workers. After a quick tour of the premises led by the security guard, Tang Qing was quite satisfied. The location was convenient and accessible by bus, and there were no noisy factories or pollutions around. The neighboring premises belonged to logistics and warehousing companies, occupying a considerable amount of land. This made Tang Qing contemplate setting up a headquarters for Sheng Tang here. However, this was just a passing thought. Sheng Tang, unlike Sky Eye, could make a profit. Let them handle building their headquarters themselves. Sky Eye was different, all its funds came from Tang Qing’s investment, and it was to become one of his core businesses in the future, hence it deserved a different treatment. "Manager He, this place is good, perfect for building our Sky Eye headquarters. When can we sign a contract?" Tang Qing remarked with a smile. "Boss Tang, we can get them to come over right now to sign the contract and handle the procedures." He Zixin replied with a smile. Seeing the young, dangerously charming boss casually deciding multi-million dollar deals was truly captivating. Gazing at his handsome face just grew more enjoyable with each passing second. She wondered who would be the lucky woman to marry such a man. "Alright, then. Have them come over to sign the contract. And then, contact an architectural firm. We need to put a lot of thought into the construction of Sky Eye’s headquarters." Tang Qing instructed. "Yes, Boss Tang. Why don’t you take a seat in the office while I contact the construction company? After that, I’ll bring the architects over." He Zixin suggested. Although most of the prefab buildings were already taken down, they had left an office behind, albeit in a very rudimentary state. "Okay, you go prepare. I’ll take another look around." Tang Qing said with a smile. He had only briefly inspected the surroundings and the site. Now he had to carefully consider the layout. He would leave the finer details to the architects, his only responsibility is to specify special requirements and the location of the office building. The architects would provide options, and he would pick from there. He Zixin left to carry out Tang Qing’s instructions, making phone call after phone call. Not only did she have to contact the construction company, but she also needed to liaise with their own company to prepare for the contracts and make arrangements with an architectural firm. To make matters worse, after all this, she still had to handle the procedures. There was just too much work. In a short while, Chu Jun, the owner of the construction company, arrived in person. He was reluctant to sell this property. He had invested a ton in a construction project. However, the developer kept postponing payment. Now he was in deep trouble, urgently needing cash flow. He would not have given away such a large piece of land at such a low price otherwise. "Boss Tang, nice to meet you. My name is Chu Jun, the owner of this construction company. I didn’t expect Boss Tang to be so young." Chu Jun respectfully said. From what he had heard, the buyer was someone influential, related to the office of the municipal party committee. Although he didn’t know who Tang Qing was, he did not dare to underestimate him. He instantly categorized Tang Qing as one of those super-rich second generations, whether they were officials or rich people, they were people he couldn’t mess around with. "Thank you. Boss Chu is also very blessed." Tang Qing said, referring to Chu Jun’s physique. "Haha, what can I say, I have a hobby, which is eating meat. I feel weird if I don’t eat meat in a day." Chu Jun laughed, immediately grasping Tang Qing’s insinuations about his weight. Although it might seem impolite that Tang Qing brought up his weight right off the bat, it really depended on who was saying it. If his subordinates had said it, it would have been disrespectful. If someone of equal standing had made the comment, they would have been joking. If someone of higher standing had said it, it would be them trying to get familiar. As absurd as reality can get. "Boss Chu, although it is a blessing to eat well, it is also crucial to exercise regularly. Otherwise, you might run into issues later down the line." Tang Qing pointed out. "Boss Tang is right, I already have high blood pressure, and some heart problems. I like to eat, and work requires me to eat, there’s no helping it." Chu Jun admitted. Indeed, it was common to dine out for business in the construction industry. With his fondness for food, it was not easy for him to lose weight. After friendly chitchat, they got down to business. There was no bargaining, as the price, a friendly one according to Dou Jiao, left no room for haggling. After signing the contract, he paid five million first. The remaining procedures required signatures from various departments. Once finalized, the remaining ten million would be paid. "Boss Tang, I wonder what sort of building you are planning to construct here. I am in the construction business, so if you have construction needs, I hope you will consider my company. Rest assured, I will do a solid job. If there’s any shoddy work or cutting corners, you can hold me accountable." Once the contract was signed, Chu Jun asked. His company was in troubled waters and eager for work - whether it made a profit was irrelevant as long as they had work. "What happened to your company, Uncle, that it needs money so urgently?" Tang Qing inquired out of curiosity. "It’s like this. We funded a project heavily, and the developer has not yet paid as approved in the contract, but we need to pay our workers and suppliers. So, the financial circumstances urged us to sell this land. I assure you, Boss Tang. Hold onto this land, and it will definitely double its worth after a few years," Chu Jun explained, reminding Tang Qing that he held high hopes for this piece of land. Though he was reluctant to sell it, the future would just have to wait. He had to deal with the current problem first. "Possibly, I am planning to build a company headquarters here. If your bid is reasonable, there is no issue in choosing your company when the bidding happens." Tang Qing agreed. Not due to rashness, but because when he shook hands with Chu Jun earlier, he used the credit investigation function, a feature he hadn’t used for quite some time. Chu Jun’s credit score was as high as ninety-four, therefore Tang Qing felt inclined to lend him a hand. People who keep their word deserve his help. "Thank you, Boss Tang, for giving me this opportunity. Just let me know if you need anything in the future." Chu Jun said passionately. From Tang Qing’s words, he believed in securing the deal. Though the bidding might have been a formality, he might not make much profit. As long as the company could operate and he could pay his employees, it would become more difficult to recover his money from the developer later. "You’re welcome." Tang Qing remarked with a smile. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞 Then it was time for the tedious process of signing the contract and paying the money. Tang Qing didn’t have to handle the remaining procedures. Representatives from both companies would manage them. In all likelihood, Chu Jun still had some connections - he confidently promised he would complete the entire process no later than next Monday. After all, if he didn’t finish the procedures, he wouldn’t get the final payment. Once the contract was signed, Chu Jun left hurriedly with two of Sky Eye’s representatives to go deal with various departments. As for the security guard, he was a relative of Chu Jun’s and would naturally be taken along. All Sky Eye needed to do was replace him by next Monday. As for the future choice of security personnel, Tang Qing had already considered it. The security for Sky Eye’s headquarters would be handled entirely by robots, as this place was not only going to house an important communication server but also become a core place for Sky Eye, a business of significant importance to him. As for the non-core businesses, they could determine their own security since there wouldn’t be much of a loss if anything did happen. Non-core businesses were so insignificant that even if the entire company was lost, it would be a minor issue, let alone the stuff inside.
