The roadshow team hasn't arrived yet.

Su Yehao received a notice saying that a small party would be arranged for them at the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo.

In his opinion, parties were totally unnecessary.

Clearly, there was a language barrier. Chatting with a bunch of people who didn't speak your language was like throwing money away to suffer.

It wasn't that he had social problems. He just thought, like many people born in the '90s, that meaningless socializing was a waste of life.

Even if you met many people and accepted their business cards, you'd only throw them in a drawer and never contact them again.

In that case, it was better to keep things simple and not meet them at all. You wouldn't even get a chance to use your connections before being used by others, which would be just asking for trouble.

Thinking of just going through the motions, Su Yehao tentatively agreed to attend.

He didn't care at all, but when Nong Qingying heard about it, she got excited and went out to buy several evening gowns.

It was rare for her to be able to attend a formal occasion with Su Yehao. Nong Qingying was a little excited. In Hong Kong, she had to keep a low profile to avoid being noticed and having her past identity become a topic of public discussion.

But in Tokyo, there weren't so many worries. Anyway, not many people knew who she was, as long as she didn't run into the guns of reporters…

Su Yehao had a lot of miscellaneous things waiting to be dealt with.

Far away in the Siheyuan.

The same snowy day, the same cold.

Su's father had come to Siheyuan to attend a meeting. As a representative of the Casino business community, he had obtained a leisurely official position and made many new friends.

As his son became famous, his status as a father also rose in the eyes of others.

Even if he didn't control a behemoth of a listed company like New World, Sun Hung Kai, Cheung Kong, or Hutchison Whampoa, the Su family was now very rich, with assets of hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars, which gave them a lot of confidence.

At this moment.

In Su Yehao's courtyard, Su's father came outside, holding a phone in one hand and a cigar in the other.

He was wrapped in a black down jacket with a fox fur collar, which was covered in snowflakes.

As a southerner, he was not very adapted to the climate here, but fortunately, he had made many friends in the past few days, so the trip was not in vain, and he had broadened his horizons.

More than a handful of people had invited him to participate in local land auctions and were willing to provide some support. His secretary had brought hundreds of business cards and had already distributed more than half of them. For a businessman like him who did traditional business, the more people he knew, the more opportunities there would be.

For example, in Siheyuan, which he favored, someone suggested finding a piece of land in the suburbs and creating a complex similar to the Pengcheng Cultural Tourism City.

The so-called suburbs were actually near the future Third and Fourth Ring Roads, and the current Fourth Ring Road had not yet been fully opened.

The two Cultural Tourism Cities there had already given Su's father a taste of the sweetness of speculating on land.

In the past year or so, the land appreciation alone had been nearly one billion RMB, and it seemed that there was no need to worry about selling the houses. In addition, he had always been thinking about his son's big vault, so the funding problem didn't seem to be too worrying.

Therefore, Su's father was very tempted by the invitation to build a Cultural Tourism City in Siheyuan. He was planning to take some time to talk to others formally, and also plan some local commercial land, a combination of shopping malls and office buildings, to keep for future rent collection.

The mainland banks knew that the Su family was strong and were vying to send money to Su's father for investment.

In his eyes, it would be a waste not to use this kind of money.

It could only be said that they were worthy of being father and son. Their ideas were not exactly the same, but they were similar, and they had a kind of inexplicable preference for collecting rent.

After he hung up the phone.

Qiu Wanfeng, a friend of Su's father, happened to come out of the room and muttered, "The heating is on and my nose is too dry. It's more comfortable outside. It's a bit cold, but usually people spend money to go to Europe to play in the snow... Did your lifesaver call you again? What does he mean? Is he pestering you?"

Su's father spat out a mouthful of old phlegm and sighed:

"What else could he mean? His son's illness is driving him crazy. I'll have someone send a check for two million US dollars, and he can figure out the rest. This matter... Little Hao is right. Once you get involved and the news leaks, the whole family is finished. It's lonely at the top. You can't not care about your reputation. Old Wu should have enough with this money."

"Two million US dollars, it's not twenty thousand yuan, it's definitely enough."

Qiu Shu glanced at Su's father and continued with a smile, "It's different to have a good son. 'It's lonely at the top' just rolls off your tongue. What's wrong? Is Little Hao's company about to go public in New York? You've become a big celebrity in the mainland, so you're bullying us poor people standing at the foot of the mountain?"

"What are you talking about? Don't slander me. If you people with two or three billion in assets are considered to be standing at the foot of the mountain, what about the others? Should they drill into the ground?"

The two middle-aged men smoked cigars together, teasing each other.

Qiu Shu suddenly asked, "Did your sister-in-law also come to the mainland? Otherwise, I'll treat you to a meal and ask her to come over and help you two get back together?"

"She went to Shanghai. It's such a long distance. If it's just for a meal, she definitely won't agree to come."

Su's father's third and fourth concubines had both run away. The third concubine took a sum of money to settle in the UK and reportedly bought a manor near Manchester and started a hotel.

The fourth concubine lived in Hong Kong and often had scandals... It would be better to immigrate as well, so that when the media mentioned this canary, they wouldn't always mention the Su family father and son.

Thinking about getting back together was nothing new. Su's father stroked his chin and said with a smile:

"The Siheyuan forum is about to end, and someone in Shanghai has invited me to come over for inspection, saying that they lack skyscrapers and have invited me to invest. I heard my son mention earlier that the location of the land taken by Tomson is particularly good and will definitely be a hit in the future. My boy is useless in other things, but his mouth is like it's been blessed. He's especially good at making money. Otherwise, I'll buy a plane ticket and we'll go take a look together?"

"No problem, I came to the mainland to inspect. While the Hong Kong property market has recovered a bit, I want to sell off some of my assets and learn from you and develop in the mainland."

After Qiu Shu finished speaking, Su's father immediately smiled and said, "Not just you, if someone is willing to take over, I want to sell the office building in Central. I used to be able to see it on Victoria Harbour, but now that several office buildings have been built along the coast, it's completely blocked. Being able to see the sea and not being able to see the sea makes at least a 5% difference in rent. It's not grand enough."

"Hong Kong developers are busy coming to the mainland to acquire land, and the rich are scared, so it's difficult to sell..."

Soon.

A few people from Lin'an called Su's father in advance, inviting him to dinner tonight to discuss the investment promotion and construction of the Meidi Group's new factory.

Since arriving in Siheyuan, people had been asking Su's father to talk about acquiring land and building high-rise buildings.

It was the first time he had encountered anything about the Meidi Group's business.

After asking, he learned that Su Yehao had taken it upon himself a few days ago and verbally agreed to consider it. Lin'an wanted to implement it as soon as possible and happened to learn that Su's father was in Siheyuan, so they couldn't wait to arrange for someone to contact him...
