Mini World Game ConsoleEvil Dragon Crazy Soldier King Chapter 209 - 208: What a Big Appetite

Yang Fei and Liang Jiayi were both startled.

They looked at each other with uncertain, alard eyes.

Seeing their changed expressions, Luo Dicheng smiled lightly.

"Don't be nervous, I am not here to hold anyone accountable today; we're just talking facts."

He raised his glass, clinked it with Yang Fei's, sipped it lightly, and sighed.

"You folks have underestimated the Governnt Office's staff too much," he said.

"Not to ntion, our experts have prepared three or four sets of urban planning drafts."

"How do you know the old buildings and land you bought will definitely appreciate in value?"

Yang Fei looked at Luo Dicheng's wise and serene eyes and chuckled.

"Doing business always involves risks, but in all the urban planning drafts by the Governnt Office, I see only this one as the most mature."

"This plan has low cost, high efficiency, and aligns well with the master plan of the developnt zone."

At this, even Luo Dicheng gave Yang Fei a second look.

He said indifferently, "It seems you have indeed put so thought into it, even considering the layout of the entire developnt zone."

"I must admit, you're right."

"The leaked version of the redevelopnt plan is indeed the best option, but unfortunately, it has been leaked."

Yang Fei was startled again.

"Leader, as you just said, though this plan has been leaked, it hasn't caused any adverse effects…"

Luo Dicheng cut off Yang Fei's words.

"However, once the plan has been leaked, it ans we can no longer use this set of plans."

"No matter the size of the impact, that's the rule at work."

Luo Dicheng spoke softly and evenly, which made Yang Fei's heart pound.

After a long silence, Yang Fei poured Luo Dicheng a drink.

"Is there still a chance to salvage this situation?"

Luo Dicheng smiled faintly, his eyes twinkling with an inscrutable smile.

"Rules are rigid, but humans are flexible, it's up to you guys at Lanting Hotel now," he said.

Yang Fei's mind raced as he suddenly noticed the unusual expression on Luo Dicheng's face.

His mind cleared instantly, and he couldn't help but laugh.

"Reporting to the leader, I have a constructive suggestion; let's discuss it," he said.

Luo Dicheng nodded in approval, looking at Yang Fei.

Yang Fei dipped his chopsticks in the liquor and began drawing on the table.

While drawing, he said, "In city construction, the most important aspect is building the transportation routes."

"The airport highway to the south of Yannan City is already constructed, bringing a large amount of traffic from the international airport."

"However, the north faces the Dianjiang River and is not freely navigable."

At this point, his chopsticks touched a spot on the drawing, and he said earnestly, "To my knowledge, the Dianjiang River has a high flow rate and low shipping costs, making it the golden waterway of Shan Province."

"Yet most of the ships do not stop at Dianjiang Pier, preferring to travel an extra hundred and fifty kiloters downstream to Yaoshang Pier."

Upon hearing Yang Fei ntion the pier, Luo Dicheng instantly perked up.

He looked at Yang Fei, his smile very evident.

Yang Fei continued, "The location of Dianjiang Pier is very important, and it should be a major docking point."

"However, over the years, Dianjiang Pier has been underdeveloped, the berths are narrow, and many large ships cannot dock."

"And the docking of small boats does not bring substantial passenger flow or economic benefits."

As he spoke, Luo Dicheng nodded along.

As the city's chief official, Luo Dicheng certainly knew about the shortcomings of the pier that Yang Fei described.

When Yang Fei got to this point, he downed the drink in his glass.

He slamd the glass onto the table, "Therefore, Lanting Group has decided to invest ten billion yuan to develop and reform the Dianjiang Pier."

"What, you are willing to develop the Dianjiang Pier?"

Yang Fei's constructive suggestions slightly startled Luo Dicheng.

However, he quickly ca to terms with them.

Yang Fei nodded and said, "Yes, but we are businessn, obviously we have our demands."

Luo Dicheng said mildly, "I can understand that. What are your demands?"

Yang Fei nodded, "My demand is simple. After Dianjiang Pier is developed and put into use, for ten years, Lanting Group shall be responsible for its managent."

"During this period, the Governnt Office can exercise normal supervisory powers, but within these ten years, there must be no re-bidding."

Luo Dicheng snorted, "You have quite an appetite."

Dianjiang Pier currently has over two hundred small berths.

The daily traffic is about over five thousand.

If the pier is renovated and expanded from a small to a dium-sized pier.

The traffic might increase to fifteen or even twenty thousand boat trips.

By this calculation, the monthly traffic would be over twenty thousand boat trips, excluding the major berth managent fees.

Other fees like pilotage, towing, unmooring, and port charges for vessels are a huge astronomical figure.

Along with the rental inco from the berths, Lanting Group's monthly profit wouldn't be less than twenty million.

Yang Fei chuckled slyly and leisurely raised his glass, taking a small sip.

"Besides managing the pier, I also hope the leaders can allow Lanting Group to use and develop the land near Dianjiang Pier for a fee."

"Oh, what do you want to do?"

Luo Dicheng's expression was indifferent, showing neither pleasure nor anger.

Yang Fei sighed, "To be honest, investing so much money at once, collecting managent fees is just a reluctant asure."

"I just want to build large hotels, restaurants, and other facilities near the pier."

"By then, I assure you, the prosperity of Dianjiang Pier will definitely not be inferior to that of the main city's economic developnt zone."

"Heh, you are quite ambitious," Luo Dicheng chuckled, his eyes calm as still water.

He said mildly, "The set of proposals you've made is very feasible."

"However, whether it can proceed will have to wait for the committee eting to discuss, we'll talk about it later."

Yang Fei also smiled, his eyes twinkling with cunning.

"So, our old city district planning case is not changing, right?"

Luo Dicheng laughed heartily and drank the liquor in his cup, satisfied.

"I don't have the final say on that. We still need to have a eting to discuss it. Let's eat."

"What?"

Yang Fei felt cold down his back, he had never expected Luo Dicheng to be so tough to deal with.

Liang Jiayi, under the table, kicked Yang Fei's foot, signaling him to stop talking.

Luo Dicheng shifted from business and briefly inquired about Yang Fei's personal circumstances.

When he learned that Yang Fei had completely lost his mory before the age of eighteen.

And that Yang Fei couldn't even rember if he had parents or relatives, he couldn't help but sigh.

After a satisfying al and drink, Luo Dicheng was the first to take his leave.

He planned to stroll in a nearby park and didn't let Yang Fei escort him ho.

Once Luo Dicheng left, Yang Fei imdiately widened his eyes.

"Jiayi, my dear wife, what do you think the leader ans?"

Liang Jiayi chided him with a glance, "Uncle Luo's intentions are already very clear."

"He agrees with the plan you proposed. And the old city district planning sche will also not be changing."

"However, all of this is just his personal opinion. The committee still has to et to make the final decision."

She sat next to Yang Fei, smiling broadly.

"You rascal, you're making such a big investnt, ten billion! Really impressive."
