Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Especially the age column, it clearly states 19 years old.

Deputy Section Chief Liao couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "This... how is this possible?"

Mr. Zhang curiously peeked over and took a look, and only then did he believe that Chen Dong was indeed the contractor of the two acres of gravel land.

A surge of joy instantly welled up in his heart. He figured that since Chen Dong was so young, he must be easy to fool, and with a little thought, he could probably secure the contract at a minimal cost.

Thus, the negotiations officially began.

The male and female secretaries seemed to have agreed beforehand, and began to play the bad cop.

The male secretary spoke first, his tone forceful: "Chen Dong, right?"

“Look how young you are, and this land issue is so complicated. You don’t have any experience.”

“Our company genuinely wants these two acres of land and doesn’t want to make things difficult for you.”

"Okay, we'll give you 720 yuan."

"The price you're offering to transfer the three-year lease on these two acres of gravelly land to us is already quite good."

"Otherwise, do you know what it means for society to be treacherous?"

The female secretary chimed in, "Yes, you know, this land isn't of much use now."

"Although I don't know why you want to take on this contract, it's a waste for you to keep it."

"I'd rather take this 720 yuan and buy something I like."

"If we miss this opportunity, we won't have such a good chance again."

“We are very sincere, and we have already increased the price of your contract by 20 percent.”

"You only contracted it for a month, and you can already earn 20% of the profits. That's an incredible windfall."

"Our company collaborates with many powerful organizations."

"You should understand."

Chen Dong sat there, his face expressionless and completely unmoved by their intimidation and threats.

Chen Dong simply smiled and said calmly, "My father is Chen Jianguo."

Upon hearing this, the male secretary scoffed dismissively: "Who cares if your father is Chen Jianguo or Li Jianguo or anything like that."

"This is a business negotiation. What does it have to do with who your father is? Don't try to scare us with this."

As he spoke, the male secretary picked up the briefcase on the table, took out eight hundred yuan, and threw it on the table.

"Hey, we don't have any change with us, so we'll give you an extra 80 yuan."

"Take this and sign the contract."

Chen Dong didn't even glance at the money on the table, and calmly said, "My father is Chen Jianguo."

"??? What exactly do you mean by this, kid?"

"These two acres of gravelly land are in your name, you can make the decisions yourself, why do you always complain about your father?"

"If you can't make the decision, go back and call your dad right now!"

"What a waste of time! If you keep messing with us like this, you'll get beaten up as soon as you step outside!"

Chen Dong snorted coldly and emphasized again, "My father is Chen Jianguo!"

Then, Chen Dong quietly looked at Deputy Section Chief Liao.

Deputy Section Chief Liao felt a little uneasy under Chen Dong's gaze.

His heart sank; he felt that things might not be so simple.

So, Deputy Section Chief Liao ignored the fact that his male and female secretaries were still chattering away and played the bad cop.

He quickly leaned close to the boss's ear and whispered, "Mr. Zhang, this kid keeps emphasizing his dad, and I feel something's not right."

"I think this kid might have connections. I'll investigate him, just in case."

Mr. Zhang nodded, his mind instantly becoming much more cautious.

If this area hadn't just begun development and the government hadn't been watching it closely, he would have acquired the land using unconventional methods long ago.

It seems this kid has connections; we can't afford to offend him easily.

So, Mr. Zhang forced a smile and waved to stop his male and female secretaries from chattering.

Then, Mr. Zhang asked politely, "Little Chen, you haven't had lunch yet, have you?"

"What would you like to drink? Take a look at the menu and order whatever you like."

Chen Dong didn't stand on ceremony. He glanced at the menu and ordered the most expensive item.

The next moment, Chen Dong said calmly, "Give me a latte and that tiramisu."

Mr. Zhang didn't think anything of it, but the male and female secretaries' faces twitched.

They really dared to point out the secret passage.

Not long after, Deputy Section Chief Liao hurriedly returned.

Then, he whispered in Mr. Zhang's ear, "Mr. Zhang, this kid's father, Chen Jianguo, is the deputy director of the Urban Construction Bureau of Nanjiang County."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhang's smile instantly froze on his face.

He secretly groaned, knowing he had met a tough opponent this time and wouldn't be easy to deal with.

Mr. Zhang adjusted his posture and began to speak with Chen Dong personally.

He cleared his throat and said, "Xiao Chen, you're still in school, your studies should be your priority."

“This land matter will definitely take up a lot of your time and energy.”

"Moreover, our company has long-term plans for this land, and we also own two acres of it."

"It would be good for everyone if you transferred this contracting right to us."

"Name your price. As long as it's reasonable, we can discuss it."

Chen Dong picked up his coffee and took a small sip.

Then, he said slowly and deliberately, "Mr. Zhang, you are right."

"But as you know, Nanjiang County has great development opportunities right now."

"With the great economic development opportunities brought about by the continuous reforms at the higher level, our Nanjiang County is also constantly expanding and developing."

"This area on the outskirts of the city will eventually become a key area for development."

"And I heard that the Nanjiang County government has a plan to develop a new suburban town."

"The location of these two acres of gravelly land is quite good."

"If I transfer it now, I might miss out on greater benefits later."

"You think 720 is nothing special?"

Chen Dong paused here, glancing at the 800 yuan on the table.

"Oh, it's 800 yuan."

"Can 800 yuan alone match the potential value of this land?"

Mr. Zhang frowned, trying to refute, "Xiao Chen, this is just a plan."

"Even I don't know when the plan can be implemented."

"You can't put all your hopes on something uncertain."

"Moreover, after our company takes over, we will have to invest a lot of money, which also carries great risks."

Chen Dong raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile.

Then, Chen Dong said softly, "Mr. Zhang, as you know, in business, risk and opportunity always go hand in hand."

Mr. Zhang picked up his coffee cup and took a small sip.

A hint of doubt flickered in his eyes.

"Chen Dong, what you said is true."

"But the risks here are considerable. What makes you think it's valuable?"

Chen Dong leaned forward, his eyes fixed intently on Boss Zhang.

"Mr. Zhang, you're a veteran in the real estate industry, having worked your way up for many years."

"They certainly understand the intricacies of this far better than I, a junior."

"The riskier a place is, the more immeasurable the rewards will be once it is successfully developed."
