Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

With Liu Shasha's help, it only took a little over a month from submitting the documents to receiving the loan, and Li Xiaofeng received 8000 million yuan in his bank account.

According to the previous business plan, Li Xiaofeng used 6000 million yuan as a down payment and asked Liu Shasha to help him purchase a residential property worth 3 million yuan. The remaining 2000 million yuan was used only to pay the monthly mortgage payments on the 3 million yuan property.

From the time these properties are purchased until the end of the year, which is about eight or nine months, 2000 million should be enough.

As for the 4 million yuan office building he purchased earlier, Li Xiaofeng has already prepared the monthly payments until this summer. The monthly payments for the second half of the year can be paid with the profits from the gym, which will absolutely ensure that his cash flow will not be interrupted.

While Li Xiaofeng was busy with a large-scale real estate purchase, General Manager Jiang invited him to visit his home.

Putting aside his relationship with Jiang Xueying, just considering President Jiang herself, with her social influence and connections, being able to associate with someone like her is an invaluable asset.

"Xiaofeng, you've seemed pretty busy lately. What have you been up to?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just saw that the real estate market is booming lately, and I thought I'd make a quick buck with everyone!"

Jiang Chengye, standing to the side, said somewhat indignantly, "If everyone knows it's an opportunity, then it's not an opportunity anymore; it might just be a trap!"

Mr. Jiang frowned slightly and scolded his son, "You think you're so capable? Xiaofeng said before that we should temporarily pack up the remaining real estate and keep it for sale in two years."

And what happened? You just wouldn't listen, you were self-righteous and arrogant! If you had listened to Xiaofeng back then, the Jiang family's net worth would definitely be even higher now!

Jiang Chengye said irritably, "You didn't object at the time, did you?"

“I’m getting old. In the future, you’ll be in charge of managing the Jiang family business. If I have to make all the decisions for you, what’s the point of having you? I can’t help you for the rest of my life!”

Xiaofeng has a much broader perspective on this than you do. You're so unconvinced, what are you trying to do?

Look at them, they built such a huge business from scratch. And look at you, don't think you're so important. If you hadn't been born into the Jiang family, what would you have accomplished?"

After being reprimanded by General Manager Jiang, Jiang Chengye lowered his head and remained silent.

Then, President Jiang put on a smiling face and said to Li Xiaofeng in a gentle tone, "Xiaofeng, I don't mean anything by it today, I just wanted to invite you over to take another look at the Jiang family!"

In your opinion, should our Jiang family join in the large-scale buying now, or should we observe and wait for a while?

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Brother Ye is a good boss who can protect the family business. There is no doubt about that. Conservatism is the most valuable quality for any entrepreneur, without exception. This is actually quite good!"

As for me, please don't follow my example. I'm someone others can't imitate. However, if you trust me, you can follow my lead a little.

Don't worry, for Xueying's sake, I won't harm the Jiang family. Of course, Brother Ye can continue to be himself and develop his own style of play!

Mr. Jiang sighed and said, "In the past two years, I have come to realize that conservative business strategies are outdated. Doing business is like rowing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind."

While others' wealth is skyrocketing, yours remains stagnant, meaning you've fallen behind. I was too conservative in previous years. Colleagues with similar capabilities to mine were boldly raising funds and acquiring land.

Now, compared to my peers, the gap is widening. With land prices rising and competition intensifying, we're almost out of even the qualifications to acquire land.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Actually, developing real estate is not an easy job. Ordinary people think that developers make a lot of money, but they know the realities and risks involved. Ordinary people don't understand the effort and risks involved!"

After hearing Li Xiaofeng's words, both President Jiang and Jiang Chengye nodded in agreement.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and continued, "Flipping houses is actually much easier than developing real estate. In this respect, Brother Ye's conservative personality is actually more suitable."

In addition, hasn't Brother Ye already started a property management company and a real estate agency? I think this is also a good direction for development. It's an asset-light business, and although the profits are relatively small, it's a steady stream of income, which is quite good!

So, I have a friend named Liu Shasha, who is a loan manager at a bank and also does real estate sales part-time. I entrust most of my real estate speculation business to her to manage.

"We're all on the same side. Give him a bigger commission, and I'll help you poach her from your company. Of course, she already has a respectable job; this will have to be part-time. What do you say, Brother Ye?"

Hearing Li Xiaofeng say this, Jiang Chengye finally smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, as long as it can expand the company's business, everything is negotiable!"

"Nonsense, of course she's a big client. My real estate transactions are all calculated in hundreds of millions. All the real estate I own is managed by her. Just my own business volume alone is a considerable amount."

At this moment, Jiang Chengye said in an embarrassed tone, "I did follow the idea you gave me before, but I didn't go all out. I only packed half of them and sold the rest!"

I thought this would be a safer approach, but unexpectedly, housing prices have been rising for the past two years. If I had listened to you and sold all my remaining assets to my investment company, well, never mind, I really regret it…”

"Brother Ye, there's nothing to regret. Your cautious risk awareness is correct. You can be a bit aggressive in business, but don't go all in easily."

Otherwise, it's like gambling; winning a hundred times is useless, as just one loss can bankrupt you. This is not a sustainable strategy!

"You still haven't told me what I should do next!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "How you do it is your choice, but I can tell you my choice: I am currently buying up a lot of real estate, mainly commercial and residential properties that are easy to resell."

However, this time I don't plan to hold them long-term; I intend to buy and sell quickly. Let me put it this way: I should be selling all my real estate holdings by the end of the year!

Jiang Chengye frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Li Xiaofeng simply smiled and remained silent.

Mr. Jiang, who was standing to the side, smiled and said in a calm tone, "Chengye, Xiaofeng has already done you a great favor by telling you his business plan. Asking any more questions would be going too far!"

Jiang Chengye quickly apologized, punished himself with a drink, and then the group started chatting, changing the subject.
