Spring Thunder Chapter 0267 Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King
December 17
White six-petal snowflakes were floating in the sky above the capital. The milky white soup in the copper hot pot was bubbling, emitting wisps of white smoke. The white in Xian Weimin's mouth was chased by a beam of fire, and soon, only yellow was left, discarded on the ground.
Nan Yi pursed his lips into a circle, and puffs of white mist blew onto the chopsticks. A thin piece of mutton with white steam coming out of it was stuffed into his mouth.
Men Saner took a piece of sheep heart out of the pot, not afraid of the heat, and stuffed it directly into his mouth. He chewed it twice and swallowed it into his stomach. "Uncle Nan, it's almost the New Year again. Where are you spending the Spring Festival this year?"
My heart has been eaten, and my master should be done soon too.
"If the two of them didn't have a holiday, I would probably go to New York."
"That's a shame. I said we should just celebrate together. It will be more lively with more people."
"Let's talk about it next year."
This meal was a farewell dinner for Xian Weimin. After the three of them finished eating, Nan Yi and Men Saner sent Xian Weimin to the airport. After Xian Weimin left, the two of them left on their own.
Compared to Nan Yi, Men Saner treated himself better. He had his own car, his own driver and bodyguards, so he didn't need to use Nan Yi's car at all.
The day after Xian Weimin left, Ueto Masami came from Argentina and reported to Nan Yi about the ranch situation she had investigated in the Pampas. Nan Yi then asked her to deal with the matter of Jiuzhangji.
The houses in Jiuzhangji are still rented from the Housing Management Office. Now some relationships have become delicate and the property rights must be clarified. It is not as convenient for Nan Yi to go to Shanzhiwei as before, so he needs a new office location in Beijing.
There are many empty houses and idle land in Jiuzhangji. If a few three- or four-story offices are added, the space will still be spacious.

Nan Yi transferred a person from Chuangyi Real Estate to set up a Beijing subsidiary of the mainland branch. Coincidentally, the person he chose was called Li Jing, so Nan Yi named the Beijing subsidiary Tota Construction. Tota Heavenly King is against Eight-Armed Nezha, no matter how powerful Nezha is, he has to be trained by Tota Heavenly King.
It is a very good omen, indicating that the tower-building will flourish in the capital.
Although this sounds a bit superstitious, who doesn't want a good omen? Look around the world and you won't find a single entrepreneur who would name his or her company "Bankruptcy", "Closed Down", or "Fixed Compensation". They all just pick nice-sounding words.
The company logo of Tota Construction was also designed quickly. It is a relatively abstract line pattern of Li Jing holding a tower, completed in one stroke without a break in the middle, and going from low to high and from thin to thick.
This pattern is too abstract. Only people who know the meaning can understand it. People who don't know the meaning will just think that the picture is pretty but can't tell what it means.
It can be said that Feng Shui is everywhere in the field of architecture, but no one will ever admit it. They will only say it is a coincidence in the design. After all, some things cannot be criticized.
If Nan Yi wants to enter the real estate field, of course it has to abide by the unwritten rules of the industry. Tota Building is Turta Building, and it should have been translated into Turta Building. Who knew that a poor translator was found and it was mistakenly translated into Tota.
Nan Yi and Li Jing were sitting in the coffee shop of the Friendship Hotel. In order to test Li Jing's quality, Nan Yi asked him a question.
“Do you think real estate in the mainland can develop?”
"Nansheng, I think it can be developed and must be developed."
"Oh, tell me more about it."
"The mainland says it is reforming and opening up, liberalizing the economy and vigorously developing manufacturing. I am not looking down on the mainland. Judging from the current education level and cultural level of the people in the mainland, the mainland can only engage in low-end manufacturing for a long time and cannot form its own core high-end competitiveness.
Thanks to cheap labor, the mainland's low-end manufacturing industry will be more competitive internationally, the economic situation will soon turn around, and the people will become wealthy.
But the low-end manufacturing industry I am talking about is mainly concentrated in the textile industry. Practitioners in this industry do not need a high level of education and only need to do repetitive mechanized work.
But if a country wants to be strong, every industry must be strong and the economic structure must be complete. It cannot just have a single economic development model.
This brings us to the benefits of developing real estate. First of all, the construction of buildings and houses does not require high quality of employees, and can absorb a large number of idle labor, mainly the surplus labor in rural areas, which can solve many jobs.
At the same time, the real estate industry can drive the development of a series of upstream and downstream industries such as steel, building materials, machinery, chemicals, ceramics, textiles, home appliances, hydropower, etc., directly or indirectly affecting many industries.
It can also boost the construction and civil engineering industries, engaging in land development and renovation, and new building construction;
Real estate industry, including the transfer, leasing, and mortgage of land use rights, the sale, lease, and mortgage of houses, and real estate agency services, including real estate consulting, valuation, and brokerage agency;
In addition, there is the sales industry, where houses need to be sold, and there are many related supporting facilities that also need to be sold; the property management industry, where residential buildings need property management;
Secondly, it can also drive the insurance industry, hydropower engineering industry, etc.
There are also taxes. Countless types of taxes can be designed around the real estate industry. Whether it is land transfer, property sales, or purchase taxes, they are all major sources of tax revenue. There is also real estate tax that can be collected repeatedly.
There are three major benefits: solving employment problems, stimulating industry development, and increasing tax revenue. Coupled with the current national conditions of a large population and insufficient housing space, it is only a matter of time before the mainland vigorously develops the real estate industry.
I believe that it won’t take too long, maybe 10 years at the shortest and 15 years at the longest, before the real estate market is liberalized.”
Nan Yi nodded and praised, "Very interesting, well-reasoned, it seems that I made the right choice to have you come to the capital. However, you are talking about the general trend, the future, let's come to the present, come to your position, tell me, what are you going to do?"
Those who understand economics may not necessarily be able to do business, and those who are businessmen may not necessarily understand economics. If business has not reached a certain level, it actually revolves around human relationships and social skills, which people who study economics may not necessarily be able to do well.
Otherwise, the wealth list should be filled with the names of economists.
"Nansheng, I traveled around Beijing yesterday and the day before yesterday and learned about the renovation of the old city. Currently, the four districts of Dongcheng, Xicheng, Chongwen, and Xuanwu have all started the work of demolishing the slums. Because they are all government actions, the action is not very fast.
I can recommend myself and include the tower building in the old city renovation. We want to build the best houses and create a good reputation. We don't expect to make a profit in the short term, as long as the company can break even.
Now that we at Tota have joined in, others, whether they are formal companies or construction teams consisting of just a few people, will surely follow suit.
We may not make money, but others cannot. Whether it is the quality of the building or the surface of the walls, corridors, floors, water pipes and circuits, we can execute them according to the highest standards.
Once people move in, they will definitely compare them with each other. Everyone will be able to tell which one is good and which one is bad, and the reputation of the tower-shaped buildings will inevitably rise.
Word of mouth will gradually accumulate, and quantitative changes will become qualitative changes. When the real estate market is liberalized and Tota Building's real estate projects are launched, people will naturally like to buy our houses, even if we sell them at a higher price than others in the future."
"Li Jing, very good, you are very good. I thought you, who was born and raised in Xiangkeng, would not understand the situation in the capital. But I didn't expect that you have seen through the essence of the problem.
Then I can safely and boldly hand over the operation of Tota Building to you. You have just taken up the new position, so I should give you a gift.
I want to let you do what you want. You don't need to balance income and expenditure. You can incur losses. I will give you a quota of 5 million in the first year, as long as your losses do not exceed this number.
In the second year, I will give you a higher loss limit, and you can lose without worry. In ten or fifteen years, I will not ask you for profit. I just want to hear Tota's good reputation and see Tota's good connections.
As long as you do these two things, your salary will not be a problem, and your management shares will not be a problem either."
"Thank you, Nansheng. I will definitely bring rich returns to Tota Construction." Li Jing vowed.
"I'll wait and see."
