CHAPTER 68: CHAPTER 68: GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE

Bureau of Land and Resources, Director’s Office.

"What did you say? The land of Shendiao Old Factory has already been sold?"

Director Ma stood up abruptly, speaking in shock.

In his impression, he had not approved the sale of the Shendiao Old Factory land. This plot of land had been included in the city government’s planning land and had no plans for sale at the moment. Although many enterprises were eyeing this piece of land, no one had ever succeeded in acquiring it.

The person responsible for handling the land of Shendiao Old Factory was Director Ma’s capable deputy, Director Wan.

Director Wan was a bit apprehensive: "Director, do you not remember? It was you who personally approved it. Without your permission, how could I handle this matter? Look, your approval signature is on this land application."

Director Wan handed the land application document to Director Ma for review.

Director Ma took a look at it, and it was indeed his signature!

This signature was impossible to forge, and no one would dare to forge his signature.

"When did I sign this?" Director Ma asked in surprise.

Director Wan wiped the cold sweat from his brow: "Just last night at the dinner, someone handed you this application. After you heard about it, you praised the person and signed your name, agreeing to the sale of the Shendiao Old Factory land."

Director Ma was utterly taken aback; could it be that he drank too much last night and had no memory at all?

"Who was that person?" Director Ma asked.

Director Wan was drenched in cold sweat: "I’m sorry, Director, I was a bit drunk last night and can’t seem to recall who that person was."

Director Ma was utterly at a loss, damn it, seriously forgot?

Director Ma’s mind raced. He said, "Let’s leave the person aside for now. The Shendiao Old Factory land must not be sold to any enterprise. Who exactly is the buyer?"

Director Wan was about to speak when the phone in the director’s office rang.

Director Ma answered the phone and his expression changed: "Mayor!"

It was the mayor personally calling!

Director Ma felt uneasy, had the mayor already learned that he had sold the Shendiao Old Factory land? Was the mayor calling to hold him accountable?

The mayor said: "Old Ma, you did well this time. The Blue Moon Company is great! I personally am optimistic about this company. I was planning on having you give the Shendiao Old Factory land to Blue Moon for factory expansion, but you beat me to it. It seems great minds think alike!"

The mayor started by praising Director Ma.

Directly leaving Director Ma in a stupor from the praise.

What? The mayor didn’t come to blame him but praised him instead?

Naturally, he played along, awkwardly smiling: "Thank you, Director, it was my duty."

After hanging up the mayor’s call, Director Ma let out a long sigh of relief.

He then looked up at Director Wan, who was equally stunned: "Blue Moon Company? What’s their background?"

Director Wan said: "This is a local hand sanitizer brand company. I heard they launched a new hand sanitizer at a product conference yesterday, garnering huge success and raking in orders worth 450 million. So, they planned on expanding their factory, and perhaps this order volume was so astonishing that it even caught the attention of the city bureau."

Director Ma couldn’t help but exclaim: "Truly impressive!"

Director Wan said: "And that’s not all. I heard Blue Moon was on the verge of collapse, but this new product brought it back to life, showing signs of a meteoric rise. No wonder even the mayor is paying attention."

Director Ma asked curiously: "Who is the owner of this Blue Moon?"

Director Wan said: "The person is named Lin Fan, only 21 years old this year. He recently bought Blue Moon outright with 100 million in cash. I also heard that Lin Fan has an voracious appetite, buying several companies at once, both outright and with stakes. If the information is correct, he should be that famous Mr. Lin currently making the rounds."

Director Ma gasped: "Mr. Lin? You mean to say that the mysterious buyer, Mr. Lin, is actually just a 21-year-old young man?"

Director Wan said: "Though it seems unbelievable, it appears to be true. Yesterday, Lin Fan even announced the formation of a group company, indicating that Blue Moon is just the beginning, and there will be more to come."

Director Ma couldn’t help but sigh: "This world is just too crazy!"

At 21, he lavishly spends 3 billion to buy a mansion, 6 billion to buy an island, and now madly buys companies. This is indeed astonishing!

Director Ma finally calmed down and instructed: "This time we unintentionally did the right thing by giving the Shendiao Old Factory land to Mr. Lin. Now it has received the mayor’s approval. You must handle this properly. Do not slight this Mr. Lin. With my experience, this young man’s future is incalculable!"

Director Wan solemnly said: "Yes, Director, rest assured, I will handle it properly!"

Director Wan then exited the director’s office.

Suddenly, Director Wan was stopped by a colleague, who smiled awkwardly: "Brother Wan, I heard the land of Shendiao Old Factory has been sold, what’s going on?"

Director Wan said indifferently: "Yes, Old Li, I know you are old classmates with Shengshi Group’s boss Feng Wanshan. Is he trying to use your connection to acquire the Shendiao Old Factory land? No need to bother, the sale of this land has already received the mayor’s approval. Shengshi Group has no chance."

Old Li was taken aback, surprised that it received the mayor’s approval. Who really has such capability?

"Brother Wan, can you disclose who exactly this land was assigned to?" Old Li began to inquire...

Shengshi Group.

Feng Wanshan jumped up upon receiving Old Li’s call, filled with emotion.

"What? The one who got the Shendiao Old Factory land is Lin Fan, the owner of Blue Moon Company?"

Old Li said: "That’s right, Director Wan personally revealed it to me. This news will soon go public, it can’t be wrong. I also heard Lin Fan is that mysterious buyer, Mr. Lin. This time I can’t help you."

Feng Wanshan sneered: "Lin Fan is not Mr. Lin at all!"

Old Li asked curiously: "Old Feng, what are you saying?"

Feng Wanshan said: "Nothing, no matter what, thank you for the effort, I’ll treat you to a meal someday."

After hanging up the phone, Feng Wanshan gritted his teeth.

Damn it!

Seriously damn it!

It’s Lin Fan again!

This is the third time!

He wanted to buy Yunding Manor, and Lin Fan snatched it. He wanted to buy Chiba Island, and Lin Fan snagged it again. Now even the land of Shendiao Old Factory, Lin Fan grabbed it!

Feng Wanshan was furious, absolutely furious.

Of course, Lin Fan was just a pawn, the real opponent was Mr. Lin.

Lin Beixuan!

"Lin Beixuan, no matter how well you hide, I will definitely find you, just you wait, I refuse to believe that I, Feng Wanshan, can’t beat you!" muttered Feng Wanshan irritably to himself.

Lin Fan, unaware of any of this.

Anyway, the system rewarded him with a piece of land. No matter how complex the process was behind it, the system would handle it properly.

This is the strength of the system, he doesn’t even have to worry about the rewarded matters, just claim the rewards.

The system is so powerful that it could even blur people’s memories. Director Ma and Director Wan can’t remember who handed in the land application, yet the procedures are complete, with no issues at all!

As usual, Lin Fan only needs to wait for the Land Bureau to contact him for the land transfer.

With the land for the factory secured, next he could proceed with building the factory.

Lin Fan entrusted all this work to Zhang Dafu.

Lin Fan said over the phone: "Da Fu, it’ll be hard on you for a while, but don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer."

Zhang Dafu was very pleased, he knew the boss wouldn’t deceive him. Other bosses couldn’t be trusted, but Lin Fan, a wealthy genius, definitely wouldn’t.

If he said he wouldn’t let him suffer, he wouldn’t let him suffer.

"Following the boss means having a good meal!"

This has become Zhang Dafu’s motto.

"Rest assured, boss, I will do my utmost!" Zhang Dafu said excitedly.

Lin Fan smiled: "Great. By the way, in the documents you gave me last night, I noticed many building material suppliers have bid. What do you think?"

Zhang Dafu was taken aback, why was the boss paying particular attention to construction materials?

Zhang Dafu said: "Indeed there are many, including the city’s leading building materials company, Dawei Company. If the price is reasonable, I would suggest cooperating with Dawei for its guaranteed reputation."

Lin Fan, however, said: "No, I choose Su’s Building Materials Company."

Zhang Dafu thought he heard wrong, it couldn’t be, Su’s Building Materials Company, they indeed bid, but he had rejected them, thinking their strength was inadequate.

Why did the boss specifically choose them?

But this was Lin Fan’s decision, Zhang Dafu wouldn’t dare oppose it. Lin Fan must have his reasons for doing so, and Zhang Dafu, being a smart man, knew not to ask what he shouldn’t.

"Alright boss, then let’s award the contract to Su’s," Zhang Dafu immediately replied.

Lin Fan put down the phone, smiling faintly.

Madam Su of the Su Family asked Su Jinjin to meet him, hoping for the Su Family to rise. So, he would simply raise a hand and give them an opportunity.

Of course, he did this all for Su Jinjin.

From now on, he wanted everyone in the Su Family to look up to Su Jinjin.

The Su Family was abuzz with a swift, unexpected news that spread rapidly through the family.

Su’s Building Materials Company of the Su Family actually secured a substantial contract from Blue Moon!
