Chapter 1 Accompanying Yin Liuli Back to Her Hometown

Two years ago, when accompanying Yin Liuli back to her hometown, Su Yehao planned to buy a farm and tinker around with it himself.

This idea has already been put into practice.

Starting around October 2005, under the guise of building a resort hotel, he had people help him acquire large tracts of land in Mogan Mountain and by Erhai Lake, and hired designers for overall planning.

Hundreds of millions of RMB were poured in, and construction progressed rapidly.

Now, in June 2007, both locations are basically completed.

Just as the weather in Hong Kong was starting to get hot and Sihai International's sixtieth shopping center was about to open in Huzhou, Su Yehao decided to take some time off to go and have a look.

After the plane landed in Lin'an, he took a car directly from the airport to Mogan Mountain.

The entire journey took more than an hour, and he arrived at his destination after dealing with a few documents.

Along the way, the mountains rose and fell, and the scenery was beautiful.

It wasn't particularly spectacular, but the low hills and the trees covering the mountains made Su Yehao feel that it was a very livable place. He opened a crack in the car window and found that the air was particularly fresh, and a cool breeze blew in his face.

After Linda Yun got out of the car, the first thing she saw was the cows fenced in by wooden railings, surrounded by large areas of grassland. In the distance, the mountains were shrouded in mist, and the birdsong was clear and melodious.

There was still a winding mountain road, funded by private investment, to get to the hotel, but this place was already within the scope of Su Yehao's manor. Even the cows in front of her were raised at his specific request.

Su Yehao leaned against the fence and looked at the cows, then walked forward along the signs, saying in a relaxed tone, "This place is really nice. No wonder it's considered a summer resort. The temperature is indeed much lower than in Lin'an."

Linda Yun also liked the surrounding environment very much, saying, "It feels like you can live a long life here. If I remember correctly, this is your first time to Mogan Mountain, right?"

"...Yes, I had people find some livable places back then. I only looked at the photos and introductions, and then asked the designer to choose the location. From the idea to the start of construction, it seems like it was very fast."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, Linda Yun added:

"That's right, I remember a little. But since it's your investment, people will naturally treat it with special care. Who doesn't know that you're a god of wealth who scatters money wherever you go?"

They walked uphill along the newly built stone path, passing through bamboo forests and trees.

The entire mountain had been carefully planned. While preserving the natural scenery, artificial designs were added to ensure that every place was scenic and not messy.

It was very cool in the valley, and it was even a little cold walking in the forest. After walking on the stone path for a while, they saw the resort hotel located on the top of the mountain.

As for Su Yehao's villa, it was built more than two hundred meters away from the hotel.

First, they visited the hotel.

It had a total of ninety-nine rooms, including ordinary rooms and independent wooden cabins.

Sitting by the infinity pool, the lush green mountain scenery in front of them was particularly pleasing to the eye. Whether it was the external landscaping or the hotel itself, it looked comfortable and pleasing to the eye, with a bit of a so-called internet-famous homestay feel. It would be even more atmospheric when the yellow lights came on at night.

Su Yehao wasn't in a hurry to look around, as he expected to stay here for ten days or half a month.

Accompanied by the hotel manager, he first went to his villa.

The villa was also equipped with an infinity pool, a mountain-view terrace, a study, a wine cellar, a private screening room, and so on.

The shape of the entire building was like a stack of containers, with a total of eight rooms. No matter which room you looked out from, the scenery outside the window was beautiful. The rooftop was exquisitely decorated, with barbecue grills and billiard tables prepared in advance.

Being in such an environment, Su Yehao was already very relaxed. Sitting on the viewing terrace, he said to the nervous-looking hotel manager:

"That's all for now. Just send some tea over. You can go and do your work. I saw a tea room on the second floor just now. I didn't prepare in advance. If I need anything else, I'll tell you."

The hotel manager replied seriously, "Okay, Boss. There's someone in the hotel who knows tea art. Do you want me to ask her to come and make tea for you? Also, the local spring water is of very high quality, and it will be very sweet for making tea. Do you need me to prepare some food for lunch?"

Su Yehao said with a smile,

"Okay, call her over later. Wait a moment for food. I'm not hungry yet... If anyone from the local area comes to visit, just notify my secretary..."

The hotel manager didn't understand at first what kind of people would come to visit.

As soon as he returned to the hotel lobby, he saw the receptionist being mysterious, saying that she had received several phone calls from people with very scary backgrounds, all asking if Su Yehao was staying here.

Coming from Lin'an Airport with great fanfare, the news couldn't be contained.

Basically, every time he came, he would be caught, Su Yehao was already used to it. At worst, he would arrange some investment projects, which would be easy to deal with.

The weather in the mountains was unpredictable.

There was still some sun before, but it turned cloudy in the blink of an eye.

When the drizzle fell and the clouds shrouded the hills, Su Yehao was already drinking hot tea brewed by a beautiful woman.

He picked up the tea caddy and looked at it, asking curiously, "Someone sent me some Golden Leaf last time. Is it the same kind of tea as this Mogan Yellow Sprout?"

The girl who made the tea was very elegant, but she didn't dare to think too much. She replied seriously,

"It's different. Mogan Yellow Sprout is a type of green tea, but it has a smothering process. Golden Leaf is a white tea, which is a mutated new variety with very little production and a high price... Very expensive for us."

Hearing this last sentence, Su Yehao couldn't help but smile.

Given his situation, it was really difficult to classify him into the category of ordinary people. He was already being treated as a "financial strategic" special existence.

For example, netizens in Casino and Hong Kong once had a big fight on newsmicroblog over the question of Su Yehao's true place of residence, and even many traditional media were involved.

The reason was that some people said that Su Yehao was a Casino resident, but he was regarded as the richest man in Hong Kong, which was tantamount to blatantly stealing talent.

People in Hong Kong dug up Su Yehao's birth information and found that he was born in Earl General Hospital in Sheung Wan, Hong Kong Island, and was treated as the heir of the Hong Kong Tang family when he was a child. Obviously, he only moved to Casino later.

Regarding this matter, even Su Yehao himself was not very clear. Personally coming forward to clarify would always offend one party, so he might as well peek at the screen silently.

Today, a rich man is a rich man, and a super-rich man is a super-rich man.

However, Su Yehao was often singled out, and he was no longer comparable to Gates and Buffett.

However, in the articles of European and American media, Su Yehao has always been a mixed bag.

This is normal. Buffett serves the interests of the United States, and Gates also serves the interests of the United States. They work hard to continuously transport the wealth of the world to the United States.

The focus of Su Yehao's investment is clearly on Asia, especially the mainland.

No wonder European and American media look at him with colored glasses. If he were a white face and put all his assets in the United States, he would have been praised to the sky long ago.

At this moment.

Su Yehao tasted the tea in his cup and smiled, "It's pretty good. It seems that my hotel also has a tea field, right? I seem to have seen it on the planning map during the design."

The girl in front of him said, "Yes, these teas are produced in that tea field. If you like it, President Su, I'll send some more over..."
