Wow! As soon as Li Zhong spoke, everyone immediately became invigorated. There were people coming to view the site, and then they would all build factories! For Hejing, this was simply a massive reform! Perhaps in a few years, once it developed, this place could even transform into a part of the urban area. "Li County, you seem quite familiar with the boss of the Osmanthus Group. Just who is he?" The young man greatly admired Xia Liu and was very curious about his identity. They were of the same age, yet others had reached heights that he could only look up to for a lifetime. Many people at the event were also curious about Xia Liu's identity, and everyone began to discuss fervently. "I feel like he might be a rich man's son." "Hey, Old Liu, you think so too? I was thinking something similar." "Right, without a substantial family background, how could he possibly attract investors in such a short time?" "Haha, then you guys are mistaken," Li Zhong declared with a face full of pride as he looked around the room. "That doesn't make sense, if Xia Liu didn't have family resources, how could he be so capable?" "Xiao Gang, why don't you explain it, since you've also watched Xia Liu grow up to where he is now," Li Zhong pointed at one of his subordinates. Xiao Gang was the young man who drove for him. The growth Li Zhong referred to was naturally Xia Liu's path from nothing to splendor, step by step. "Well, I think the reason why it's called the Osmanthus Group is related to Xia Liu's hometown. He's from Osmanthus Village," Xiao Gang shared his guess. "Wow! He's actually from Osmanthus Village!" "Impressive! Osmanthus Village was just a few months ago considered the poorest village." "That's true, when I went to Osmanthus Village last year, I still had to enter from the outside." Upon hearing Xiao Gang mention Xia Liu's hometown, several older colleagues were shocked. "Last year was last year. A few months ago, the boss of Osmanthus Group, Xia Liu, returned to the village. He started with medicinal herbs, then moved on to seafood, and eventually acquired Longteng and Longyun Hotel. Until today, he built Osmanthus Group through his own efforts." ... After listening to Xiao Gang's narrative, people in the conference room fell silent. No matter what, they couldn't believe that Xia Liu was from Osmanthus Village. And he started from scratch, building a major group in just a few months. The establishment of Osmanthus Group had indeed shaken Binlai City. Registered capital of two and a half billion! That was an astronomical figure, one that ordinary businesses or companies might not earn in their lifetime. Yet it was achieved by this young man from Osmanthus Village. "You know now, Xia Liu is from the poorest village in the county, and he alone has developed the village," Li Zhong would say with an indescribable sense of pride whenever he spoke about this matter. Because Xia Liu was now dating his daughter, and they were in a relationship with marriage as the goal. With such an impressive son-in-law, it was hard for Li Zhong to not smile. In Osmanthus Village, after Xia Liu had been idle for a while, he thought about going to the county town when another call from Liu Hai City came through. He didn't want to answer it, but he did anyway. "Brother Xia Liu! I've arrived in Binlai City," a coquettish female voice came through the phone. "Who are you, girl? I don't recognize this number, and you're calling me with that flirty voice," Xia Liu hadn't seen the number before and was baffled by the familiarity. "Come and pick me up, and you'll know who I am." "I'm quite busy right now, if there's nothing important, just take a cab here," Xia Liu firmly refused, he certainly wasn't lacking women, and going there would only show a desperate level of thirstiness. "Hehe, I do have a reason. I heard Brother Xia Liu is looking for investors, so I came over with high hopes. If there's still room, I'd like to invest a few billion." Listening to the voice on the phone, Xia Liu swallowed a few times. Invest a few billion! This was going against the heavens. He immediately asked for the girl's address, then personally drove over to pick her up. Xia Liu had been worried whether anyone would come at all, but he hadn't expected such a quick response, and with such a substantial amount of money too. An hour later, Xia Liu picked up the person at the airport. She was a girl with a cute appearance. And her image was rather memorable. "Brother Xia Liu, I'm over here!" Seeing Xia Liu arrive, the girl immediately opened her arms and ran towards him. Xia Liu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Wasn't this girl Linlin? He had even given her a lecture before. Although Linlin's personality and attitude hadn't been great in the past, her figure was top-notch. As she ran with a quiver, her undulating shape mesmerized countless onlookers. But Xia Liu dodged out of the way, joking to himself. How could he let such a little demoness bewitch him? "Brother Xia Liu, I'm a bit unhappy when you treat me like this. I'm thinking of going back," Linlin said with a pout when she saw Xia Liu ignoring her. "Linlin, the kind of investor I'm looking for is one who truly wants to invest and develop with Hejing. This isn't really appropriate, you know." Xia Liu looked Linlin up and down and couldn't help but shake his head. What on earth was this girl wearing? Striped stockings up to the knees, a short skirt, a white top, and a ponytail. Damn, wasn't this a schoolgirl outfit from an Island Nation movie! "Brother Xia Liu, I was wrong. I'm here to invest. Please take me to see the place," Linlin said, lowering her head without any other thoughts, having been reprimanded by Xia Liu again. "Yo, not bad at all, much better than before. Let's go then," Xia Liu was somewhat surprised. It seemed this girl had indeed changed. After that, Xia Liu drove Linlin back to Hejing. On the way, Xia Liu called Li Zhong, arranging to go see the site together once he was back. He was quite worried about the atmosphere being somewhat off when he was alone with Linlin. When Li Zhong heard an investor was coming, he immediately gathered the staff to welcome them. When they saw Linlin dressed in a school uniform, they were all dumbfounded. "Boss Xia, has the investor you mentioned not arrived yet?" one colleague tentatively asked. From his experience, if this kawaii girl was in Xia Liu's car, she was either Xia Liu's mistress or someone he had brought for the investor's pleasure. "Haha, let me introduce her to you. Her name is Linlin. She's a businesswoman who came here to invest from Liu Hai City." Seeing everyone's hesitation, Xia Liu promptly introduced Linlin's identity. "Pfft!" Everyone, including Li Zhong, spat out in disbelief. Linlin looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, yet she was an investor! This completely overturned their understanding. "Hello everyone, it's my first time in Hejing. I hope to receive your support in the future," Linlin greeted everyone generously. "All good, all good!" "Hmm, Linlin, shall we go to eat first, or should we look at the site straight away?" "Let's look at the site first. I've only brought thirty billion this time. If we're late, all the good spots might be taken by those guys." ... The others were once again scared pale, thirty billion! This kawaii-looking girl Linlin had brought thirty billion with her this time…
