"Xiao Chuan, it's already 8:20!"
Qin Shuren glanced at the time and said.
"Let's go, we'll head down!"
The opening ceremony was scheduled for 9 AM, with firecrackers, a drum and gong troupe, a lion dance team, and an acrobatics team all set to perform at the mall.
Friends, big bosses, and people from within the system who were close to Qin Chuan would all arrive in advance. As the host, Qin Chuan naturally had to be ready to welcome them.
"They're out!"
"Boss Qin is out!"
"Wow, Boss Li Ya is so beautiful!"
"She and Boss Qin are truly a match made in heaven!"
The ordinary people gathered in the open space outside the property development were buzzing with excitement as they saw Qin Chuan, Li Ya, and others emerge from the entrance.
Following behind Qin Chuan and Li Ya were Qin's father and mother, Qin's two brothers, and their elder sister-in-law Wu Yanyan. All of them subconsciously tensed up, their backs straightened, afraid that any slip-up in their image would negatively impact the grand opening.
At the entrance to the sales office, Qin Chuan was already accustomed to such a situation. He waved to everyone with a smile.
Li Ya also greeted the crowd with a bright and charming smile.
At the very front of the crowd, reporters were taking pictures, the flashes from their cameras blinding.
At 8:25 AM, a Santana car arrived first. As the car door opened, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie stepped out.
"It's Boss Ge from the lumber mill!"
Someone in the crowd immediately recognized the first VIP guest.
"Boss Qin, congratulations, congratulations!"
Boss Ge walked along the red carpet, accompanied by a subordinate carrying an exquisite gift box. He clasped his hands in greeting.
"Thank you, Boss Ge!"
"Please come in quickly!"
Qin Chuan and Li Ya stepped forward, smiling and warmly welcoming him. Qin's second brother quickly took the gift box from the subordinate.
"Boss Ge, this is my dad and mom, this is my eldest brother and sister-in-law, and this is my second brother!"
Qin Chuan made the introductions.
"Oh, hello Uncle and Aunt!"
Boss Ge quickly shook hands with Qin Shuren and Jiang Cuihua, his face full of respect.
"Hello! Hello!"
Qin's father and mother were a little nervous. Although the elderly couple had developed good social skills through managing the supermarket recently, far exceeding their past, they were still a bit flustered in this setting.
"Boss Zhang from the brick and tile factory is here!"
Just then, a commotion could be heard from afar. A jeep slowly stopped, and a man with a robust demeanor stepped out. He was Zhang Bingshan, the owner of the brick and tile factory.
"You guys must have planned this beforehand, right?"
Seeing Zhang Bingshan appear in less than two minutes, Qin Chuan said quietly to Boss Ge.
"Heh heh, I knew I couldn't hide anything from you!"
Boss Ge grinned. "Those guys refused to go first no matter what, so we had to play rock-paper-scissors to decide. Whoever lost had to go first!"
"And then you lost..."
Qin Chuan chuckled and then quickly led Li Ya to welcome Zhang Bingshan.
"Boss Zhang, welcome, welcome!"
"Boss Qin, congratulations! You've finally opened your property development!"
Zhang Bingshan offered his well wishes. "You have no idea how long we brothers have been waiting for this day!"
"Here, this is my gift for you!"
Qin's second brother quickly reached out and took it.
"Heh heh, well, it's open now!"
"Please come in quickly!"
Qin Chuan warmly invited Zhang Bingshan inside.
"No problem, I'll just stand with Boss Ge and take a good look at what kind of spectacle you've put on today!"
As they were talking, more vehicles slowly approached and stopped at the entrance of the red carpet.
The car door opened, and a man in his fifties with a ruddy complexion stepped out, carrying a small gift box.
"Wow, Director Shang from the Industrial and Commercial Bank is here too!"
"Good heavens, Qin Chuan's connections are too strong!"
"Even Director Shang is attending!"
The crowd buzzed with discussion.
Qin Chuan and Li Ya quickly stepped forward again to greet him.
"Qin Chuan, congratulations!"
Shang Bingrong handed over the gift box in his hand, a smile on his face.
"Uncle Shang, you're too kind. Please come in!"
"Tea has been prepared inside."
Qin Chuan took the gift box and said with a smile.
Shang Bingrong was welcomed to the entrance of the sales office. Upon seeing Shang Bingrong, Zhang Bingshan and Boss Ge enthusiastically stepped forward to greet him.
As the head of a bank, Shang Bingrong was undoubtedly the god of wealth in Yongnan County, someone countless people sought to appease.
Therefore, his status was self-evident.
"Director Lou from the Housing Management Bureau has arrived!"
"Director Zhao from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has arrived!"
At this moment, two cars stopped one after another at the entrance of the red carpet. Seeing this, Qin Chuan and Li Ya had no choice but to quickly greet them again.
These two were also real power players who controlled the lifeline of Yongnan County's real estate market. Everyone who built houses had to go through their approval.
"Director Lou, Director Zhao, welcome, welcome!"
"Boss Qin, you've really put on quite a show, it's so lively!"
Director Lou of the Housing Management Bureau surveyed the surroundings and said with a smile.
"It's alright, just a small affair!"
"Alas, there's no need for such modesty!"
Director Zhao of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development shook his head. "You are now the top benchmark figure in Yongnan County, a leader of the younger generation. When it's time to show off, you should show off!"
"Because of your success, it will create a significant siphon effect, attracting more and more young people to join the entrepreneurial ranks!"
"Director Zhao is right, please come in!"
"Director Shang, Manager Zhang, and Boss Ge have all arrived. You all know each other."
The arrival of Director Lou and Director Zhao thoroughly livened up the atmosphere, and the onlookers below were also extremely excited, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle.
"Another car is coming, guess who it is this time?"
At the red carpet entrance, the gathered common folk saw another car approaching and immediately began to speculate.
Under the gaze of many eyes, a Santana car slowly drove forward. Before it even stopped, the common folk recognized the license plate.
"It's the county government car!"
"County Mayor Ye must be inside!"
"Oh my goodness, even County Mayor Ye is here, Qin Chuan has immense influence!"
After the Santana car stopped steadily, a young man with a refined aura first got out. He quickly opened the rear door, and then a cultured man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, with a gentle and jade-like demeanor, emerged.
It was Ye Qingping and Wang Ping'an, who had come to attend Qin Chuan's property opening ceremony.
"County Mayor Ye, Secretary Wang, welcome!"
Qin Chuan and Li Ya had already come to greet them.
"Qin Chuan, congratulations on your grand opening!"
Ye Qingping said with a smile, while Wang Ping'an handed over the flower basket he was holding.
"Thank you!"
"County Mayor Ye, Secretary Wang, please come in!"
Qin Chuan and Li Ya warmly invited them. As the four were about to enter the sales office together, they suddenly heard the sound of a car behind them.
Instinctively, they stopped and turned their heads, only to see a luxurious Mercedes-Benz parked at the entrance of the red carpet.
Qin Chuan felt that this Mercedes-Benz looked familiar, as only a handful of people in the entire Yongnan County could afford a Mercedes-Benz.
Just as he was filled with surprise and uncertainty, the car door opened, and a familiar face came into view.
"Boss Qin, congratulations on your grand opening!"
