Chapter 272: Chapter 271: Regarding the Bet, I Agree

”That’s the gist of it. I’m sure Mr. Wei now understands why I won’t sell the land to you, right?”

”The potential profit from developing this land ourselves is far more than just two or three hundred million!”

A faint smile appeared on Lin Feng’s face.

After hearing Lin Feng’s plan, Wei Shaojie’s expression stiffened slightly.

Judging by Lin Feng’s plan for the commercial district, offering two or three hundred million to make him give up future revenues of over a billion, or even several billion, was indeed an insult.

The reason Wei Shaojie had proposed that condition was that he had truly underestimated Lin Feng.

Hearing Lin Feng’s question, Wei Shaojie remained silent.

Zheng Yan stepped in to smooth things over with a smile. ”It seems Xiaofeng is indeed well-prepared in this regard. A plan like this will certainly require a great deal of funding.”

”Including labor and time costs. In that respect, we, the government, intend to make an investment...”

Zheng Yan smiled as he began to discuss the terms with Lin Feng.

Lin Feng didn’t reject him outright. Instead, he asked Zheng Yan in return, ”I wonder, what kind of investment method does the government have in mind?”

After a moment of contemplation, Zheng Yan said, ”The government can provide seven hundred million in investment capital for the land’s development plan.”

”However, we hope to establish a formal joint-stock company. The seven hundred million would be our capital contribution, and we’d hope to receive around fifty percent of the shares.”

Lin Feng thought to himself, ’He’s a sly old fox of the official world, alright. Using capital to try and lock down a majority stake.’

’Then they’ll have a say in everything. In the end, even though they didn’t buy the land, they’d be the ones calling the shots for the entire commercial district.’

It was indeed a clever calculation.

But Lin Feng wasn’t one to be so easily fooled.

So, Lin Feng smiled and refused directly, ”I’m sorry, Mr. Zheng, but we aren’t short on funds for this project.”

”I’m sure you’re well aware that I own an investment firm. An investment firm is the last thing to be short on capital and credit.”

”But rest assured, Mr. Zheng, I can guarantee that during the development and planning phase, we will do our best to meet the conditions set by your tourism office.”

”After all, this is a win-win situation. I’m very clear on that.”

When he heard Lin Feng’s refusal, a crack appeared in Zheng Yan’s perpetually refined facade.

From the attempt to purchase the land to the government’s request to buy shares, Lin Feng hadn’t agreed to a single thing.

Zheng Yan finally realized that although Wei Shaojie had a strong desire for control, the one with the strongest desire was actually Lin Feng.

Lin Feng had absolutely no intention of relinquishing the control in his hands.

What he wanted were all the rights and interests tied to this plot of land.

He wouldn’t allow anyone to interfere with his development plan.

Upon this realization, Zheng Yan drew in a sharp breath.

A teenager with such audacity, to directly reject their requests.

And to have such a firm opinion of his own when facing the development plan for such a huge plot of land.

The funds required for the development plan of such a large piece of land could be described as astronomical.

Yet Lin Feng actually intended to bear the cost himself.

Even though Zheng Yan already knew that Lin Feng was a person of considerable nerve.

But in this matter, Zheng Yan still wasn’t very optimistic about Lin Feng’s chances.

So, after a moment’s thought, Zheng Yan said, ”Since you don’t want us to interfere, but you also say you can cooperate with our related plans.”

”Then I wonder, Xiaofeng, if you have the guts to make a bet with us?”

Lin Feng was naturally aware that his repeated rejections of their requests would surely make them uncomfortable.

But the land was Lin Feng’s.

The development plan was also his.

Lin Feng didn’t want these people interfering in the first place.

However, after the land became a commercial district, he would still need the government’s backing and support.

So Lin Feng didn’t intend to offend the officials either.

A bit of cooperation with the government that didn’t affect the big picture would be good.

So Lin Feng smiled and nodded. ”Regarding the bet, I agree.”

Zheng Yan was a little surprised. ”You’re agreeing without even hearing the terms of the bet?”

Lin Feng smiled and nodded. ”I have that much confidence. Besides, I trust you, Mr. Zheng. You’re not the kind of petty person who would stab someone in the back.”

Zheng Yan was momentarily speechless, then chuckled and sighed. ”Even though you’ve agreed, I still have to tell you the details.”

”Our situation here in the government is that we need to develop tourism as quickly as possible. Since you won’t let us interfere.”

”As long as you can complete all the planning and construction for the entire commercial district within three months...”

”...then we will no longer interfere in any matter concerning your land. At the same time, we will also guarantee everything on your land, within the scope permitted by law.”

”The timeline is very tight—only three months. Do you accept?”

Lin Feng let out a laugh and nodded decisively. ”Don’t worry. I was already planning to complete this project as quickly as possible. I can definitely do it in three months.”

Hearing Lin Feng agree so readily, Zheng Yan gave him a silent look. ”Young people truly have guts!”

”Although you don’t want us to interfere, if you need our help with anything during these three months, don’t hesitate to ask.”

For the Cyan Mountain Town Tourism Office, the sooner Lin Feng’s land was developed, the better.

In this regard, Zheng Yan was willing to provide whatever help he could.

In fact, Lin Feng was also aware of this layer of concern from Zheng Yan and the others.

That’s why his attitude was so explicit when he refused.

”Don’t worry, Mr. Zheng. When I run into problems, I’ll be sure to shamelessly come bother you.”

Lin Feng said playfully, instantly breaking the serious atmosphere in the meeting room.

Zheng Yan nodded with a smile and pointed directly at Wei Shaojie’s secretary, Chen Yong.

”I’ll have Secretary Chen here contact you shortly. If you run into any trouble, just find him directly. We’ll give you an express lane!”

After the discussion with Lin Feng concluded, Zheng Yan let out a long sigh of relief in his seat.

Wei Shaojie, who was beside him, sighed. ”That kid... he has a kind of indescribable arrogance.”

Zheng Yan picked up his teacup and took a light sip. ”He is indeed audacious, but not arrogant.”

”Besides, a person like Lin Feng naturally has the capital to be audacious.”

At this point, Zheng Yan turned to glance at Wei Shaojie. ”Although you wanted to get your hands on this land to develop it.”

”Do you have a concrete development plan? Or rather, is your plan as detailed as the one Lin Feng just described?”

Wei Shaojie was left speechless by Zheng Yan’s question.

To be honest, ever since Wei Shaojie had set his sights on this plot of land, he did have his subordinates start preparing a relevant plan in advance.

But everyone involved knew exactly what their efficiency was like.

Moreover, at that time, the land hadn’t even been officially assigned to Wei Shaojie’s department.

Although the relevant team was working on a concrete plan, its level of detail was nowhere near Lin Feng’s conception.

On this matter, Wei Shaojie truly had no way to rebut.

”Actually, from reading Lin Feng’s file to interacting with him just now, I’ve realized he’s no mere rich second-generation heir.”

”Judging by his aura and the tactics he used when negotiating with you, he is fully capable of carving out a path for himself.”

Before leaving, Zheng Yan gave Wei Shaojie a meaningful pat on the shoulder and left him with a final sentence:

”The world will belong to the young people in the future. Besides, when it comes to tourism, the ideas of the youth are much better than those of us old fossils!”

”You should understand the principle that the younger generation is to be respected.”

Zheng Yan swaggered off, while Wei Shaojie remained in his seat, lost in thought.

Chen Yong, standing to the side, was on pins and needles.

Although he was Wei Shaojie’s secretary, Zheng Yan had just placed the task of liaising with Lin Feng in his hands.

Logically, what Chen Yong should be doing right now was getting in touch with Lin Feng’s side as soon as possible to build a good relationship.

But with Wei Shaojie sitting there lost in thought, it wasn’t appropriate for Chen Yong to leave.

Furthermore, this was something Zheng Yan had ordered Chen Yong to do.

But Chen Yong ultimately answered to Wei Shaojie, so he still needed to communicate with Wei Shaojie about this matter.

”Mr. We—”

Chen Yong had just started to speak when Wei Shaojie abruptly looked up, cutting off the words he hadn’t yet spoken.

Snapping out of his deep thought, Wei Shaojie was somewhat surprised to see Chen Yong still in the meeting room.

”Why haven’t you left yet? Don’t you have anything to do this afternoon?”

Chen Yong was a bit speechless. ’It seems Mr. Wei was so lost in his own thoughts that he didn’t even notice I was here.’

”I wanted to ask about the matter of contacting Lin Feng...” Chen Yong could only say drily.

Only then did Wei Shaojie suddenly realize that this was why Chen Yong had remained in the meeting room for so long without leaving.

”Just do as you were instructed! I’m not the kind of person who disregards the bigger picture!”

”Getting Lin Feng’s land developed is a good thing for all of Cyan Mountain Town. You need to cooperate with him fully, understand?”

Chen Yong nodded quickly.

’If I had known Mr. Wei felt this way, I wouldn’t have waited around in the meeting room for so long.’

”I’ll go get started right away.”

Chen Yong stood up and left the meeting room.
