"What? Yong Lei, are you saying your Wang family is planning to develop Qinglong Bay?"
"That's truly a good project. If Qinglong Bay can really be developed, it will be incredibly profitable. However, Qinglong Bay is too vast, requiring too much investment. Without tens of billions, it's impossible to start!"
Tang Shimin naturally knew that Qinglong Bay was like a ditch. To develop it, the ditch had to be cleaned up, and then residential and commercial areas had to be built nearby. A rough estimate suggested forty to fifty billion.
For the Tang family, this was an astronomical sum.
"Tens of billions are nothing. Our Wang family has plenty of money. If we're going to do it, we'll do it big. This time, the Wang family's goal is to make the Qinglong Bay project a success and become the number one prominent family in Jiangbei City!"
Wang Yonglei spoke to Tang Shimin about his ambitions.
"That's right. The Wang family is a first-tier family in Jiangbei City, so they naturally have the funds to invest this much!"
"Since Young Master Yong Lei is so generous, I'll discuss it with my family when I get back. If possible, I'll definitely buy that five hundred mu of land without hesitation!"
Tang Shimin said with a smile.
"Haha, then I'll await your good news!"
The two were chatting and laughing in the western restaurant, a scene that happened to be witnessed by Lu Yang. Lu Yang initially intended to walk in directly, but considering Tang Shimin's recent attitude towards him, he decided against it. However, Lu Yang didn't leave and quietly waited outside.
He waited until the two finished their meal and came out. Tang Shimin got into Wang Yonglei's car, and it drove off.
Lu Yang quietly followed the car. He wanted to see what this man pursuing Tang Shimin was up to.
About ten minutes later, Wang Yonglei actually sent Tang Shimin to the Tang family villa, and then both of them went inside.
Lu Yang, not feeling at ease about Tang Shimin, followed them in.
"Grandpa, let me introduce you to Young Master Wang Yonglei of the Wang family!"
"Yong Lei, this is my grandfather!"
Tang Shimin directly introduced Wang Yonglei to Tang Yuan.
"So it's Young Master Wang gracing us with his presence. It's an honor!"
Tang Yuan knew Wang Yonglei and quickly welcomed him in.
"Old Master Tang, you are too kind. I arrived in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts. This bottle of wine was brought back from abroad by my father. It's authentic '82 Lafite, for you, sir!"
As Wang Yonglei spoke, he handed the bottle of wine he was carrying to Tang Yuan.
"Oh my, Young Master Wang is too polite!"
Tang Yuan took the wine, grinning from ear to ear.
At this moment, Lu Yang walked in brazenly.
"What are you doing here?"
Everyone's expression changed upon seeing Lu Yang. Tang Shimin even turned around and asked Lu Yang coldly.
"I came to see you. After all, we're still husband and wife!"
Lu Yang said to Tang Shimin with a smile.
"Lu Yang, I know what you're thinking. Once I've finished my business with the Tang Corporation, I'll give you one million yuan and then we'll get a divorce. I'll keep my word!"
Tang Shimin thought Lu Yang had come looking for her just for the million yuan.
"Think whatever you want!"
Lu Yang didn't explain. Instead, he found a seat and waited for Wang Yonglei's next move.
As expected, Wang Yonglei glanced at Lu Yang and completely ignored him. With his status, there was no need to interact with a nobody like Lu Yang.
"Shimin, Grandpa isn't an outsider. Why don't you tell him what I told you earlier? If Grandpa is interested, I can allocate a few hundred more mu of land!"
Wang Yonglei said to Tang Shimin with a smile.
Hearing Wang Yonglei's words, Tang Shimin immediately recounted the Qinglong Bay development project that Wang Yonglei had just told her to Tang Yuan.
"What? The Wang family wants to develop the Qinglong Bay project?"
Tang Yuan exclaimed in surprise.
"Old Master, please keep your voice down. This project is currently being kept secret by our Wang family. If it weren't for my good relationship with Shimin, I would never have revealed this matter!"
"I've already proposed to Shimin. As soon as Shimin divorces this good-for-nothing, I'll marry Shimin. Then we'll be one family. That's why I'm willing to tell Shimin about our Wang family's secret project!"
"Consider this plot of land my wedding gift to Shimin!"
"In less than a month, our Wang family's investment will be fully underway. Once the news gets out, the land value will skyrocket. How much you can earn depends on how you handle the sale!"
Wang Yonglei spoke with great emotion.
"Good. I didn't expect Young Master Wang to be so generous, working so hard for our Shimin. In that case, our Tang family naturally cannot let Young Master Wang's efforts be in vain. Besides Shimin's three hundred mu, we'd like to have another three hundred mu, for a total of six hundred mu. What do you think, Young Master Wang?"
Tang Yuan directly looked at Wang Yonglei and said.
"Six hundred mu?"
"That's a bit too much. After all, the entire Qinglong Bay is only two thousand mu. If we directly take out six hundred mu, I'm afraid my father won't agree!"
"How about this, I'll go back and discuss it with my father first, and try my best to get all six hundred mu for you!"
Wang Yonglei said with a hint of thought.
"Alright, thank you for your trouble, Young Master Wang!"
Hearing Wang Yonglei's words, Tang Yuan immediately said excitedly, then escorted Wang Yonglei to his car and watched him drive away.
"Shimin, I can't believe you've accomplished two major things for the Tang family right after recovering!"
"Not only did you help the Tang family overcome their difficulties, but you also secured such great profits for us. As long as we get these six hundred mu of land, our Tang family can make hundreds of millions by reselling it once the Wang family develops Qinglong Bay!"
Tang Yuan said excitedly to Tang Shimin.
"Grandpa, as a member of the Tang family, this is what I should do!"
Tang Shimin said humbly.
"Good, good!"
"Mingde truly raised a good daughter!"
Tang Yuan nodded at Tang Shimin with great satisfaction.
"Pies don't fall from the sky, Grandpa. This is clearly a trap, can't you see it?"
Lu Yang sat aside, cracking melon seeds, and said with a smile.
"You useless bum, what do you know? Young Master Wang is the eldest son of the first-tier Wang family in Jiangbei City. He's willing to give up six hundred mu of land in Qinglong Bay because he fancies Shimin. Do you think he's a good-for-nothing like you?"
Upon hearing Lu Yang's words, Tang Yuan yelled at Lu Yang impolitely.
"Alas, good words can't persuade a damned ghost; mercy can't save those who bring their own doom!"
Lu Yang sighed inwardly and didn't say anything further. He quietly sent a text message to Lin Guoxiong, asking him to investigate the Wang family in Jiangbei City.
