[Brother Xiang, how is your recovery going? Has the doctor said when you can be discharged from the hospital

I have registered the homework you need to do for you, please rest assured.

Aunt Qiao talks about you every day, worried that you won’t be used to the food there and that you’ll lose weight again.

Xiaotian and Awen practiced a new song, it’s not very good, you can come back and listen to it and then give your opinion.

Douding has lost his appetite recently. I think he must be missing you.

I miss you too and hope you can come back soon.

Xiao Zhao

[Hello, Luo Shen!

I saw your news in a magazine and heard that you were hospitalized due to illness.

You must take care of yourself, good health is the capital for fighting.

My best friend is injured and hospitalized. He is also in Hong Kong. I wonder if you are in the same hospital

Hope you all recover soon.

Dear friend, no matter what kind of desperate situation you find yourself in in the future, you must remember that there is always someone in this world who silently supports you.

Your friend, Xiaodao!]

Ye Zhao lay by the window, looking at the hazy moon in the sky. It might rain that day.

She got up and took out some minced meat from the refrigerator and fed it to Douding. Douding had become depressed recently and was not as lively as before. "Eat more, little Douding, or when Brother Xiang comes back, he will think I abused you."

It rained heavily that night and Ye Zhao was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night. Winter here really came after the new year.

Ye Zhao caught a cold. When he woke up in the morning, half of his nose was blocked.

She took out the woolen coat she had bought earlier from the closet and put it on before coming out of the bedroom.

Aunt Qiao was talking to Fat Po Ying in the restaurant. On the night when Brother Xiang had the accident, Ye Zhao ran back to call the adults, but the mute was in the bathroom and Fat Po Ying was playing mahjong and ignored them. When Ye Zhao finished calling the police and came out, he heard someone shouting outside, so Fat Po Ying rushed out in panic, but the group had already run away.

Because of this incident, Aunt Qiao scolded Fatty Ying Chou and ignored her for several days.

Fatty Ying also felt very aggrieved. How could she have thought that she would be stabbed at her doorstep

Hearing Ye Zhao coming out, Fatty Ying said to her happily: "Xiao Zhao, they've caught him! They were caught in a hospital outside the city. The gang didn't dare to go to the hospital for three days, but last night one of them went to the hospital to have his head checked, and they finally caught him. They even dared to ask us for medical expenses. Don't you think these people are disgusting!"

Then the fat woman Yingbalabala shared with her the police's arrest situation. Four people were arrested and one escaped, but the main culprit who stabbed was still there, so it depended on how the case would be sentenced later.

Aunt Qiao said, "It's good if you catch me, but just because I catch you doesn't mean I forgive you."

Fatty Ying argued, "Even if the mute and I rushed out at that time, it would be useless. It's not that Xiangzi couldn't beat him, he was ambushed. No matter how many people there were, it would be useless."

"Why is it useless? We have more people, so the other side won't be so bold."

"You are also wrong. You didn't take a shower at that time..."

"You're still making excuses!"

Fatty Ying quickly slid down to her knees: "Yes, yes, yes, it's my fault, my fault, there will definitely not be a next time. Ye Zhao, what are you holding in your hand?"

"A letter. I wrote to Brother Xiang. Aunt Qiao, do you have Brother Xiang's address?"

When she heard Ye Zhao say that he had written a letter to Xiangzi, Aunt Qiao was delighted and said, "I have the address of his aunt's house. I'll get it for you."

Fatty Ying laughed and said, "Call on the phone. What era is this? Why are you still writing letters?"

Aunt Qiao hurriedly turned back and said, "What do you care! What's wrong with writing letters? Write more to keep in touch! Hurry up and leave. You're annoying me so early in the morning."

After sending Fatty Ying away, Aunt Qiao went to get the address for Ye Zhao: "It's very cold today, you should wear more clothes and go to the pot to scoop the soup yourself."

Aunt Qiao cooked carrot and duck blood soup, and we had mixed noodles for breakfast.

Fresh ramen mixed with half a spoonful of XO sauce is full of the fresh flavor of seafood. Ye Zhao can eat two large plates.

A mouthful of noodles and a sip of soup, it is simply the most delicious thing on earth.

"Auntie Qiao, your mixed noodles are delicious, even better than cart noodles."

"This is how cart noodles are made, you're so stupid. Just blanch the noodles, scoop them out and add some XO sauce. It's delicious no matter who makes it. No skills are required. Xiangzai loves it the most." Aunt Qiao sighed.

Ye Zhao could see that Aunt Qiao missed her son very much, so he asked, "When will Brother Xiang be discharged from the hospital? After he is discharged, he can come back, right?"

"I don't know yet. Even if he is discharged from the hospital, his grandmother will insist on keeping him by her side to recuperate, so he won't be able to come back in the near future."

"Can you come back for the New Year? It's less than a month away."

"His family wants him to spend the New Year in Hong Kong. I neither agreed nor objected. It depends on Xiangzi's own wishes. What about you? Where are you spending the New Year?"

Where could Ye Zhao go to celebrate the New Year? She smiled and said, "I have nowhere to go."

"Then we two can celebrate the New Year together." Aunt Qiao said and then sighed, "Oh, we are so pitiful."

Ye Zhao ate noodles and said with a smile: "Why is it pitiful to celebrate the New Year with me? It's not pitiful, okay, I will pay for the firecrackers and fireworks for the New Year at home."

Ye Zhao spoke sweetly, and Aunt Qiao smiled brightly: "Luckily you are here, otherwise I would really be alone."

"How could that be? Even if Brother Xiang doesn't come back for the New Year, he will definitely come back when school starts next year. I have already saved all his homework."

That's not necessarily true. Zeng Erqiao knew that Xiangzai didn't belong here after all.

At the Song family in Hong Kong City, Mrs. Song got up and had breakfast in the bedroom. Today it was milk, eggs and toast.

Sister Zhen helped her get out a thick coat and asked, "Do you want to wear a sweater underneath?"

"No, it's not that cold. Have you delivered the supplements for the eldest young master of the Luo family?"

"It was delivered early in the morning." Sister Zhen asked curiously, "Have you ever seen the young master of the Luo family?"

Mrs. Song: "He saw her when he was young, but not since he grew up. Song Xiaoping just doesn't know how to behave. His relationship with the Luo family became too strained in the past few years, and our two families don't interact much anymore. If I hadn't established a good relationship with Miss Guo this time, Mrs. Luo would still ignore us."

Sister Zhen hung her coat aside and said, "While you are in charge of Song Rongji, quickly repair your relationship with the Luo family. In this circle, everyone is mercenary. The more friends you have, the more powerful you are, and the more people will flatter you."

Song Tai: "There are so many people who can't stop this family from dumping rice."

Sister Zhen whispered, "He didn't come back until three o'clock last night, and he's still hanging out with Zhong every day."

She was talking about Song Xiaoliang.

Mrs. Song tore off a piece of toast, dipped it in milk, and put it into her mouth. "Don't worry about him. When the old man is gone, we will divide the family property."

Ding-a-ling-ling! Ding-a-ling-ling!

Sister Zhen hurried to the bedside table to answer the phone, "Hello, good morning... Oh, Miss Guo... Wait a moment..."

When Mrs. Song heard that it was Miss Guo calling, she reached out her hand and Sister Zhen handed her the cordless phone.

"Hey, Aileen... did you get it?... Why are you being polite? This is for your nephew's health, it's very effective in replenishing blood... Yes... OK, then when Mrs. Luo is free, I'll go over to pay my respects..."

After breakfast, Ye Zhao came downstairs. Uncle Su gave her a lightweight Fei Ge bicycle. She would ride the bicycle to go to school or to ride around Zengwuwei.

If I go on a long trip, I ride Xiangzi's motorcycle. A motorcycle needs someone to ride it, otherwise it will have all kinds of minor problems if it is left unused for a long time.

Ye Zhao rode her bicycle. She was going to the Irene Toy Factory today. Just as she entered the factory gate and was on her way to the cafeteria, she met a car. It was her father's Audi.

There are no more than 500 Audis in the whole of China, and Ye Dingguo managed to grab one by relying on his connections. Men probably only focus on cars and not on women and real estate.

The black Audi stopped in front of her. Ye Dingguo was sitting in the back seat. He rolled down the window and asked her, "Where are you going to spend the New Year?"

Ye Zhao asked back: "Where can I go to celebrate the New Year?"

"Go to your Uncle Su and Aunt He's house to celebrate the New Year. I've told them. If you do well in the college entrance examination next year, I'll buy you a house." This is Ye Dingguo's love for his daughter, with conditions attached.

If she has good grades and can make him proud, she is a good daughter. Otherwise, she is just an eyesore and a burden that reminds him of her biological mother.

Sometimes, parents' love for their children is not entirely selfless. There are always people who are born utilitarian.

Ye Zhao sneered. A house in an ordinary location would only be worth tens of thousands of yuan. She wouldn't like it unless he bought her the most expensive one.

She said, "If you buy me one of the Seaview Bay villas, I can consider accepting it, but forget about the others."

Ye Dingguo got out of the car. His daughter had a big appetite.

He said, "If you get admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University, I will buy you a set right away. Your father always keeps his word."

Ye Zhao didn't want to apply to Tsinghua University or Peking University. She had her own plans. "Forget it. I want to apply to Shenzhen University. Our goals are not the same."

"What kind of good school is Shenzhen University? It's only been established for a few years. It's not even up to par. Even Bai Lu looks down on it. She's going to apply to North China University. Don't you want to do better than her? You're going to get into Shenzhen University? Isn't that embarrassing?"

"I want to do better than her. I just need to get a higher score than her in the college entrance examination to win. As for which school to apply to, that is my personal choice. I think Shenzhen University is very good. It is a new school with strong innovation capabilities..."

Her father didn't understand that the future richest junior brother was waiting for her there. She had to go to Shenzhen University, and when she made money, she would invest in her junior brother's Fat Goose Instant Messenger, allowing him to boldly start his own business. She had already made a plan, and in addition to building houses and collecting rent, she would wait for her junior brother to work hard for her and make money.

Ye Dingguo firmly disagreed with her applying to Shenzhen University and immediately turned hostile: "If you don't listen to Dad and insist on applying to Shenzhen University, don't even think about me buying you a Seaview Bay villa. I won't even leave you a dormitory at the Irene Toy Factory."

Ye Zhao immediately rolled her eyes at her father: "Who cares? Just leave them all to Bai Lu."

"I won't leave it to her either. Can I, Ye Dingguo, be threatened by an unfilial daughter like you? Do you think my future is yours? Can't I have another child?"

You have a new girlfriend, and you feel more confident now?! Ye Zhao sneered, "Let Gao Yueyue give birth to your child?"

Ye Dingguo: "It's none of your business."

"Gao Yueyue is pregnant? Give me a brother or sister? You do have the freedom to have children, but let me be frank. I will not recognize them. Whether they are a dragon or a phoenix is none of my business."

Seeing Ye Zhao's firm attitude, Ye Dingguo softened his attitude. The second child was not even born yet, and he couldn't make the relationship with his own daughter too awkward.

"You paid for this cafeteria, right?"

Ever since she knew Gao Yueyue and Ye Dingguo were together, Ye Zhao didn't expect to hide this from her father. She admitted generously: "I contracted it. It's better for me to make money than for others to make money."

"Dad was against you coming here to work odd jobs before, but if you want to be the boss, I certainly don't object. Now the canteen is doing very well, and everyone is very satisfied, which shows that you have a business mind, and you can follow me in this respect." Ye Dingguo was quite good at flattering himself, "Don't worry and go for it boldly. Dad's branch factory in Dujuan Village will start production in March or April after the New Year, and then I can rent the canteen to you."

Dujuan Village is a village connecting the inside and outside of the Great Wall. In the original novel, Ye Dingguo built a branch of the Irene Toy Factory in Dujuan Village, which was half a toy factory and half a shoe factory. Later, as the toy business declined, it was all converted into a shoe factory. In the following years, it successfully transformed and created its own women's shoe brand, which was also the business that Bai Lu inherited later.

Ye Zhao asked: "Where is Uncle Su? Is he also in charge of the factory over there?"

"Of course. Your Uncle Su is very capable, and both sides' work cannot do without him." Ye Dingguo asked her, "How much money can your canteen make every month?"

"What?"

"I want to know about your ability to make money. I heard from the finance department that they pay you about 50,000 or 60,000 yuan every month. Do you have a 10% profit?"

That's more than 10%. They basically control the profit at around 20%. Ye Zhao said, "That's about right. Gao Yueyue is also a shareholder. Why don't you ask her?"

"I don't talk to her about money."

Ye Zhao wanted to laugh. The more you care about something, the less you talk about it. It's interesting.

"If not money, what should we talk about? Art? Her singing? Do you know who Gao Yueyue is?"

Ye Dingguo was slightly impatient: "What do you want to say?"

Of course Ye Dingguo remembered that Gao Yueyue came out to correct Zeng Xiaoling that time.

"Later, Zeng Xiaoling and I reconciled. After the reconciliation, I found out that Gao Yueyue lied. Gao Yueyue stole the bass from the lounge and threw it at the door. Then Zeng Xiaoling found the bass at the door and took it away." Ye Zhao watched her father's face gradually become ugly. She continued to spit sand: "Our band and Gao Yueyue are competing for the first place in the music competition. The first place prize is 10,000. In order to get the 10,000 prize, Gao Yueyue did not hesitate to attack me, an old classmate. How can such a woman not talk about money?"

Ye Dingguo asked, "Have you confronted her?"

"No. She thought I didn't know. There's no point in confronting her now. I'm just reminding Dad that your judgment of women is really not right."

Ye Zhao ignored Ye Dingguo's increasingly gloomy expression and said, "You just told me that the canteen of the new branch factory would be given to me. I took it seriously."

Ye Dingguo said helplessly: "Go find Director Liang."

Ye Zhao rode her bicycle away like a gust of wind. The canteen business was actually quite profitable, earning at least 100,000 yuan a year, and it was guaranteed to make money regardless of drought or flood, so she didn't need to worry about turnover. Every penny she could earn was a penny she could earn, so she could build a house as soon as possible.

Put down the bike, lock it, and go into the cafeteria.

The cafeteria has already cleared for breakfast at this time, and there is no one in the lobby.

I walked in, pushed open a small aluminum door, and entered the back kitchen. I heard Aunt Qin and her husband arguing about something, and the chefs were sitting in groups of three or four, and the atmosphere was not very good.

"The boss is here." someone said.

Ye Zhao asked: "What's wrong?"

Aunt Qin hurriedly pulled her to the grocery room at the back and whispered, "Old Li is not in a clear mind. The factory is in the off-season now, and we have laid off more than a thousand people this month. Now there are only about two thousand seven or eight thousand people eating at each meal. It is said that there will be even fewer people during the Chinese New Year. There are so many fewer people eating, but we still have so many chefs and waiters in the kitchen. I was thinking, why not lay off some people during the Chinese New Year, and then recruit more people when the peak season comes."

Ye Zhao asked worriedly, "Will it be easy to recruit people by then?"

"There are so many people without jobs in my hometown, it's so easy to find a chef. I just discussed it with Xiaofeng this morning, thinking of asking you for your opinion, but the old man in the kitchen heard us while we were discussing it, and he instigated his brothers to ask Lao Li for mercy. Lao Li was stupid, he felt that these people were all his brothers, and he couldn't just lay them off, and he openly argued with me in front of so many people. I was so angry."

Aunt Qin’s idea is very simple. Hire when you need people, and lay them off when you don’t. The same is true for Irene Toy Factory. These are the practices of early capitalists.

Ye Zhao didn't want to blame Aunt Qin. She was thinking from the boss's perspective and she did nothing wrong.

Ye Zhao patted Aunt Qin and said softly, "I'll take care of it."

Coming out of the grocery room, the chefs were still there. They all came out to work to earn money. They had wives and children at home and they all had to support their families. It wasn't easy.

It is best if a good team does not break up if possible, and we will soon have to contract the canteen of another branch factory, and by then we will not have enough chefs.

Ye Zhao asked: "The New Year is coming soon, who wants to go home first?"

No one responded. No one wanted to go home early and everyone wanted to keep their job.

Just as Ye Zhao opened his mouth, one of them raised his hand and said, "If you want to lay off people, lay me off first. My family is not that poor."

The person who was speaking was Dai Xiangrong, the assistant in charge of the kitchen. He was usually conscientious and responsible in his work, and everyone praised him highly. He was almost thirty years old and still unmarried, so he had the least family burden among them.

Ye Zhao said: "We are not laying off employees, but we will divide them into two groups to go home for vacation. Taking advantage of this off-season, one group will go home now and come back to work at the end of February, and the group that stays here for the New Year will go home in March and come back at the end of April."

The people who were squatting stood up after hearing this. Someone asked quietly, "Boss... then... then how is the salary calculated?"

Ye Zhao: "During the vacation, there will be no bonus, but the basic salary will be paid as usual. Those who stay here for the New Year will receive an extra red envelope. You can choose whether to go back in the first batch or the second batch."

No layoffs and basic salary is still paid!

Everyone couldn't hide the joy on their faces. Someone smiled and bumped into Lao Lai, saying, "Lao Lai, next time don't spread rumors without knowing the truth."

Lao Lai raised his hand excitedly and said, "I'll sign up first. It's agreed. I'll sign up first. I want to go home for the New Year. If I don't go back soon, my wife will run away."

"Didn't you just say you weren't going back?" someone teased with a smile.

Lao Lai touched his forehead in embarrassment, "Isn't it different? I thought I wouldn't be allowed to come back. Then I definitely won't go back."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Ye Zhao finally said: "Everyone work hard, everyone will receive a year-end bonus, the specific amount will depend on individual performance."

Everyone was pleasantly surprised. Not only were there no layoffs, but they also offered long paid vacations and year-end bonuses? ! !

Dai Xiangrong took the lead and said with a smile: "Thank you, boss! You are so generous! You are so open-minded!"

Li Zhengxin was very moved. He stood there grinning without saying a word.

Seeing Ye Zhao being so magnanimous, Aunt Qin actually felt a little guilty in her heart. She had been afraid that Ye Zhao would not agree to support so many idle people, so she rushed forward to be the bad guy. Now that it was handled like this, it was of course the best thing and everyone was happy.

For the canteen, it meant spending an extra two to three thousand yuan in wages, but people’s hearts were settled, Lao Li was in a better mood, and everyone’s life was better.

Aunt Qin and Ye Zhao came out of the kitchen and went to the canteen to chat. There was a small lounge behind the canteen. Aunt Qin smiled and said, "They are so happy now. If I had known, I wouldn't have rushed to the front and acted like a bad guy..."

Ye Zhao smiled wickedly and said, "Without you rushing forward, they wouldn't be so happy now."

Aunt Qin smiled and hit her.

Ye Zhao asked: "Are you going home for the New Year?"

Aunt Qin said, "Director Liang said that there are more than a thousand workers staying in the factory for the New Year, and they need to ensure the supply of food for the New Year. If we go back, there will be no one to take care of us here, so I won't go back, and let my son come to celebrate the New Year."

As he was talking, Gan Xiaofeng came in with a bunch of gloves, "I bought these for everyone. It's been cold these past few days. I heard it will be even colder during the New Year."

Aunt Qin asked: "Xiaofeng, are you going home for the New Year?"

"If I don't go back, I can't buy a train ticket. It's too much trouble to go back."

"Aren't your parents urging you to go back?"

"They urged me to go back home for the New Year and to find me a blind date. I was too lazy to deal with them."

Aunt Qin liked Xiaofeng very much. She had told Xiaofeng before that she would introduce her son to her. This was a good opportunity. She smiled and said, "My son is coming to celebrate the New Year. Will you be here by then?"

Xiao Feng smiled and said, "Aunt Qin, I don't want to date yet."

"You're already 24 after the Chinese New Year, right? It's time to find someone!"

Li Ruixiang tried on the gloves and pushed her mother: "Doesn't my brother have someone he likes? Mom, don't play matchmaker blindly. Besides, Sister Xiaofeng will stay here in the future. It's impossible for her to go back to Wancheng with my brother. Right, Sister Feng."

Xiao Feng: "If I can stay here, I will definitely stay."

Li Ruixiang said: "Of course I can stay. I want to stay here too."

Aunt Qin shook her head. "What's so good about this place? I think Wancheng is better."

Everyone smiled and ignored her. Ye Zhao and Xiao Feng came out of the canteen together, talking as they walked, and walked towards the office building together.

"Irene is going to open a branch factory next year. We will try to take over the branch's cafeteria then."

Xiao Feng knew Ye Zhao well. As long as Ye Zhao brought up something, it was usually certain or had a plan. She said, "I heard Director Liang mention it a while ago. He said that the area of the branch factory over there is even larger than this one. I wonder how many workers they will recruit."

"There may not be as many workers as here at the beginning. Sister Xiaofeng, what do you think of Dai Xiangrong?"

"Ah?" Gan Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, and said a little embarrassedly: "He is okay, but his personal conditions are not very good. He will be 30 after the New Year, six years older than me."

Ye Zhao, who originally just wanted to ask Dai Xiangrong if he could lead the team to be the person in charge of the branch factory kitchen, was confused, but only for half a second. She immediately reacted and thought, Sister Xiaofeng thought she was introducing Dai Xiangrong to her

Looking more closely at Xiaofeng's shy expression, she said she looked disgusted, but deep down she seemed to like her a little

Ye Zhao said, "It's good to be six years older. It gives me a sense of security. What do you think if Dai Xiangrong is made the person in charge of the canteen of the branch factory? It's just a chance for him to exercise. If he can do it, it means he has potential. We can try to get to know him."

Xiao Feng thought carefully about what Ye Zhao said, and suddenly realized that she had been too sentimental just now. Her face turned red with shame, "Are you teasing me?"

Ye Zhao looked innocent: "I didn't say anything. Whatever you say, I will say it..."

Both of them couldn't help laughing.

The two of them avoided the shade of the trees and walked in the sunshine. With the warmth of the sun, Xiao Feng asked, "Does Aunt Qin still need to be in charge of the branch factory cafeteria?"

"What do you think?"

"To be honest, she manages the canteen here pretty well, and there haven't been any major mistakes. She hasn't made the mistake of not recording the sewage and cardboard in the accounts since I reminded her privately. The key is, with her at the forefront, you don't have to be the bad guy." Xiaofeng was very clear-headed.

Ye Zhao smiled and nodded, "What you said makes sense. But I don't want to form a partnership with others this time. Or I can give her a salary and let her take care of it."

"Since it's a concurrent job, I think I can just give him half of the salary, and let Dai Xiangrong take care of the rest."

"I'll think about it. There's no rush now."

Ye Zhao went upstairs and went straight to Director Liang to ask him about the branch factory canteen.

Director Liang didn't know that this was an order from his boss. He said that the bidding would be held in March next year and he would notify Ye Zhao then.

Ye Zhao gave Director Liang the phone number of Zhao Hua's office and said, "Just call this number to inform Gan Xiaofeng. You don't need to tell Aunt Qin."

Director Liang understood. He had long suspected that Qin Yue'e was just helping Ye Zhao to hold the company as a boss. It turned out to be true. He did not dare to ask more questions and only nodded and said yes.

After Ye Zhao finished his work, he rode his bike directly to Shunfeng Building to find Lao Kai.

Lao Kai was smoking in the office. When he saw Ye Zhao coming in, he said hurriedly, "It's amazing. Every time I want to find you, you will appear."

Ye Zhao smiled: "Every time I asked you to do something, you didn't do it well, so you waited for me to come to you, right? How is the land grant going?"

"It's really not that I won't do it for you this time. You're going to get rich, I tell you."

"What do you mean? How did you get rich?" Ye Zhao asked calmly. She didn't believe that there would be any big thing like a pie in the sky.

"Haixi Road, which was originally planned to be located east of the viaduct, is said to be moved westward, right across the Zizhulin land! If you apply for land approval now, no matter how well connected you are, it won't be approved."

Is the land of Zizhulin going to be expropriated for road construction? The land area is not particularly large. If a road runs through the middle and both sides of the road retreat at least 50 meters, Zizhulin will be abandoned.

No, Haixi Road does not pass through Zizhulin.

Ye Zhao asked: "Why do you want to change the plan?"

"Who knows? It's the higher-ups' plan, and we can't control it."

Ye Zhao was anxious: "Then you still say it's a good thing?"

"For other good locations, this is not a good thing, but for Zizhulin, it is a good thing. To be honest, what can you do with that piece of land? Your friend hasn't come to see the land yet, right? I guess he won't want it after seeing it." The land has been sold and it is like water spilled. Lao Kai now criticizes Zizhulin as being useless.

"My suggestion is to pretend that you didn't know about the change in planning and build immediately without waiting for land approval. After you build the house, the compensation you will get will be much higher than if the land was expropriated directly. At least you can make tens of thousands of dollars. I regret selling the land to you."

Ye Zhao was not mentally prepared to rush to build a house. She did not quite understand the craze for building houses in this era. She asked, "Is it illegal?"

"Who cares if you violated the law or not! Everyone is rushing to build, no one cares. I can help you find a construction team, and you can start construction before the New Year."

Ye Zhao didn't respond. "When will Haixi Road be built?"

“It will be built the year after next at the earliest, and the land will have to be acquired in the second half of next year.”

"No rush, let me think about it first." Ye Zhao didn't want to be led by Lao Kai, she had to ask more questions, look more, and think more.

Even if she wanted to build it quickly, it was not for the purpose of expropriating the land! She had a good piece of land with inestimable future value, and it was impossible to use it to build a highway!

Absolutely impossible!
