Chapter 36: A Role Model for the Younger Generation on Yingdao Island
Mr. Wan rushed to the restaurant.
He made his fortune in real estate and would also bid for small scenic area development projects.
He was the one who managed to snag this project back then.
After he completed the house, the project was abandoned for some reason.
He thought it would be a waste to leave it there, so he suddenly had the idea to open a small restaurant.
At first, there weren't many people here, but unexpectedly, bloggers suddenly put it on the internet and strongly recommended it.
He was the chairman of a real estate group, but he was forced into this role and made the restaurant business even more successful than his real estate ventures.
But the restaurant business is not his main business.
He worked himself to the bone at this restaurant, spending several years in the business, but he still didn't earn as much as he would from developing a small real estate project.
But it's his hard work, and he doesn't want to sell it at a low price.
Because this piece of land was sold as part of a package deal, those who simply wanted to run a restaurant couldn't afford it, while the big bosses who could afford the land looked down on it, so they were in a very awkward situation.
The store manager just said that someone offered 10 billion.
He even transferred the money directly, so naturally he rushed over to see if it was reliable.
He Fan and Ji Anran were leisurely eating the fruit slices served by the manager, waiting for Boss Wan to come and sign the contract.
dong dong dong~
There was a knock on the door.
The manager walked in with a man who looked to be around 50 years old.
The man had fairly thick hair, a kind face, and seemed easy to get along with.
"Hello, Miss He, you want to buy my restaurant?" Boss Wan shook hands with He Fan with a smile.
He Fan looked at Boss Wan in front of him and felt that he was very pleasing to the eye.
He smiled sincerely and said, "Yes, Boss Wan."
Mr. Wan sighed softly: "May I ask if you have any suggestions for the future of your restaurant?"
He Fan understood what he wanted to ask: "Don't worry, Mr. Wan, I really like this restaurant. I bought it simply to make it even better."
Mr. Wan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
It seemed as if he was convincing himself: "Yes, yes, you young people would definitely do a better job than this old man. I'm really not up to the task anymore. The internet is developing too fast these days."
He Fan nodded: "Can we sign the contract now, Mr. Wan?"
Hearing He Fan ask this question, Boss Wan finally snapped out of his emotional state.
He took the contract out of his briefcase and handed it to He Fan.
He Fan picked up the contract, glanced at it symbolically, and placed it in front of Ji Anran: "Take a look, and sign it if there are no problems."
Ji Anran watched for about four or five minutes, then nodded to He Fan.
He Fan gestured to him with his eyes, indicating that he should sign directly.
Soon, the restaurant matter was settled, and Ji Anran could follow up on the remaining procedures.
Once the contract was signed and the rebate arrived, He Fan didn't care about anything else.
Mr. Wan looked at the signed contract and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, leaning back on the sofa.
He chatted with the two young men in front of him: "This restaurant has finally found a reliable person to take over."
Ji Anran asked, puzzled, "Boss Wan, why do you say that? This restaurant is so popular, it should be making a lot of money."
Mr. Wan shook his head: "Yes, but I opened this restaurant unintentionally. It was a happy accident."
Seeing that Boss Wan seemed hesitant to speak, He Fan didn't rush to speak and waited for Boss Wan to continue.
Mr. Wan sighed: "I have a small real estate company. Although it's not very successful, it's something I built up when I was young. I'm thinking of working hard for a few more years to preserve the business I've built up over the years."
“This restaurant was originally the site of my abandoned scenic area development project. Although it’s very popular now, I’m just too old to keep up with the young people’s ideas.”
Ji Anran asked curiously, "Which real estate company?"
Mr. Wan: "Yaohua Real Estate".
Ji Anran: ......
You call Yaohua Real Estate a small real estate company...
He Fan had initially thought that Boss Wan was too rigid in his thinking.
This restaurant could easily earn tens of millions a year, so why insist on sticking with a real estate company that doesn't make money?
Until I heard the name of this 'small real estate company' was Yaohua Real Estate...
Yaohua Real Estate is one of the top real estate companies in Yingdao.
Although it can't compare to those top-tier high-end residential projects from outside the country, which local doesn't know it?
Half of the residential buildings in Gangcheng District were developed and constructed by Yaohua.
On-time delivery, no shared area, excellent property services and owner benefits.
The city of Yingdao not only boasts coastal scenery, but also continuous mountain ranges and even remote, untouched forests.
North of the ancient Great Wall ruins that span the entire Yingdao Island lies a mountainous region with a less developed economy.
The reason why those mountainous areas were able to escape poverty is largely due to the past development by Yaohua Real Estate.
Roads were built and opened to traffic; Hope Primary Schools were constructed; and new rural areas were established through demolition and relocation.
For the people of Yingdao, Yaohua Real Estate is a national enterprise dedicated to benefiting their hometown.
Compared to this small restaurant, Yaohua Real Estate is indeed... a bit of a waste of their energy.
Thinking of this, He Fan felt a surge of respect and sat up straighter.
He Fan said smugly, "Boss Wan, so you're the chairman of Yaohua Real Estate? Don't underestimate Yaohua Real Estate's standing in the hearts of the people of Yingdao. For the younger generation of Yingdao, you are our role model. No wonder I felt close to you the moment I met you."
Ji Anran also agreed with He Fan, although it might seem a bit like flattery...
But such national enterprises are indeed worthy of respect.
He quickly chimed in, "That's right, Chairman Wan, who in Yingdao doesn't know Yaohua Real Estate?"
Wan Yaohua: "Hey, stop flattering me, just call me Uncle Wan. This restaurant is my life's work. If it weren't for my good-for-nothing son who can't take over Yaohua Real Estate right now, I would really like to retire."
After saying that, he looked at the sea view outside the window and said, "Now that I'm retired, I'll just come to Bincheng District and live out my retirement here in this restaurant."
He Fan waved his hand, giving a reassuring look.
He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Wan, we'll definitely take good care of this restaurant for you. You can come anytime you want in the future."
Wan Yaohua chuckled. These two young men, like his son, were both unreliable.
After this assurance, Wan Yaohua felt even closer to He Fan.
He said to He Fan, "Okay, then I'll come here often from now on. If you ever need my help, don't hesitate to ask Uncle Wan for help."
He Fan and Wan Yaohua had a very pleasant conversation, and Ji Anran listened with admiration.
Fan Jie is indeed Fan Jie.
Chatting about everyday matters with such an important person, you can quickly build a close relationship.
No wonder Sister Fan has such unfathomable wealth at such a young age.
This is the difference between Sister Fan and myself, isn't it? There's still so much I need to learn.
When they first met, seeing how young He Fan was, she even tried to call her "little sister" to match her age.
I was really overestimating myself. Whether it was what Sister Fan gave me or her abilities, I deserved to be called Sister Fan.
System: Ding~ Loyalty of dating target #1, Ji Anran, +5
He Fan, who is currently cultivating a relationship with Wan Yaohua: ...
This loyalty came rather suddenly.
I have no idea what Ji Anran was thinking about while she was looking down.
As you get older, you really do tend to overthink things!
Half an hour later...
Wan Yaohua, who had a pleasant conversation with He Fan, reluctantly took his leave after receiving a work call.
