Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

``` "Xia Liu, I heard you're back." Before Xia Liu could greet, Li Zhong's cheerful voice came through the phone. "Yes, Uncle Zhong, are you free now to have some tea?" "I was actually about to look for you, where are you? I'll come over immediately." Li Zhong was even more eager than Xia Liu. Let's just say the proposal for the town renovation project was submitted. The documents have been approved, but it seems the merchants in the county do not take kindly to Osmanthus Group's profit-sharing proposal. This is somewhat embarrassing. Though there are documents, Xia Liu had clearly stated that he would not force the merchants in any way. Currently, the situation is not making any progress, and this is worrying Li Zhong. Even though no one has said anything yet, if the renovation keeps being delayed, sooner or later, the approval will be taken back. If that happens, it will be a long time coming before Hejing can be developed further. Eventually, Xia Liu and Li Zhong decided to meet in a private room at Longyun Hotel. To see Li Zhong, Xia Liu took five bottles of Osmanthus Wine from the company. The company was very close to Longyun, just a five-minute walk away. So Xia Liu didn't drive or anything. Unexpectedly, Li Zhong had arrived at Longyun Hotel even before Xia Liu. "Uncle Zhong, do you have some urgent matter to discuss with me?" Seeing how quickly Li Zhong had arrived, and the look of worry on his face, Xia Liu asked in confusion. "That's right, it's about the Hejing transformation project." Li Zhong didn't say much, gesturing Xia Liu to sit down and talk at leisure. After requesting a large private room, Li Zhong began sipping the Osmanthus Wine, discussing his concerns with Xia Liu. "Uncle Zhong, I've been paying attention to this issue too, and now I've found a solution," Xia Liu confidently stated after hearing Li Zhong's worries. "Hmm? You have a strategy for solving it?" Li Zhong expressed some surprise. Xia Liu left Hejing quietly, and now has returned without a word. And now he says he has a way to solve the merchants' problems. That seemed incredible. "The reason the merchants hesitate to cooperate with the company is that they can't see a prosperous future, and what I intend to do is show them a vision of a flourishing tomorrow." "A prosperous future, how's that?" Li Zhong was puzzled, somewhat doubting whether he was getting older since he couldn't grasp what Xia Liu was talking about. Was he planning to hire some actors to play a role, and then get the merchants to agree to a partnership? That must be a joke. Every businessperson who trades is sharp-witted, tricking them is tougher than persuading a bald man to get a haircut. "There's a commercial street in the Eastern District that's about to be completed, right? I plan to spend ten days to fine-tune and launch this commercial avenue." "Uh, every place has commercial streets, even if you start it up so quickly it won't make a difference." "This one is different, it's divided into luxury and ordinary commodity zones," Xia Liu explained. "Go on," Li Zhong perked up, the idea of a luxury zone and an ordinary zone intrigued him; if pulled off, it might truly stand out. "Over the past few days, I went to Liu Hai and Yanjing and have invited some luxury brands. They're coming to inspect the location today, and if all goes as expected, they can start decorating the stores tomorrow. Ten days is more than enough time to open the commercial street." "This can't be true, can it?" Li Zhong found it hard to believe. In the few days that Xia Liu was away, he had been negotiating partnerships. "Of course, it's true, they will arrive in about two hours," Xia Liu said with full confidence. He didn't think Sun Tao would dare to bluff him. After all, that guy had seen what he was capable of. "Xia Liu, I have to say, your working capability and intelligence are superior to many others," Li Zhong praised, giving a thumbs up to Xia Liu's meticulous demeanor. "Heh, it's what I need to do," said Xia Liu humbly. While they waited, Li Zhong asked Xia Liu about the luxury goods on the commercial street. ``` Becoming a luxury district means it would definitely encompass all sorts of valuable items. Li Zhong didn't quite understand this. After listening to Xia Liu briefly, he laughed more and more happily. Although he didn't fully grasp it, names like Hermès, LV, Legendary Jewelry, BMW, Ferrari... etc. were still familiar to Li Zhong, and this time he could really tell that Xia Liu was serious about running the company. He was determined to renovate Hejing. If these luxury shops were introduced, without saying more, the downtown area would surely attract many wealthy shoppers. Hejing was just a county town, but it had many characteristic and retro-style buildings. These would definitely leave an impression on the tourists. As time would pass, word of mouth would spread the fame of Hejing, and more and more people would come to know of it. And thus, more people would come here. Of course, it was also necessary to attract people from nearby towns and villages. Xia Liu gave Li Zhong a surprise. It was another enterprise they had successfully negotiated with. Walmart Supermarket. When Li Zhong heard from Xia Liu that this supermarket would also appear in the shopping street, he couldn't sit still. That was a globally renowned chain supermarket. Although it had been somewhat subdued in the market over the years, its fame was still very much alive. The products inside were countless. With such a large supermarket, the residents of the surrounding towns and villages would definitely be eager to shop in such a large shopping mall. Today, Li Zhong saw Xia Liu's capabilities once again; they were simply too frightening. With his daughter following him, she wouldn't have to worry for the rest of her life. Even though Xia Liu might be somewhat fickle-hearted, that didn't matter. He had a sense of responsibility that others couldn't match, and that was enough. After chatting idly for over an hour, Xia Liu's phone finally rang. Seeing that it was Sun Tao calling, Xia Liu signaled to Li Zhong immediately. "How is it?" Li Zhong asked immediately after Xia Liu finished the call. "They're on Chengzhong Road now. I told them to turn around and come to Longyun Hotel." "Such big shots, they won't get angry, will they?" Li Zhong asked with some concern. "Uncle Zhong, relax, they're kind of my friends." "My goodness, just how many friends do you have in bustling places like Liu Hai and Yanjing?" Li Zhong became somewhat sensitive upon hearing the word 'friends.' Last time, Xia Liu casually made a few calls, and then an industrial zone was directly invested in and developed outside the Eastern District. Now that the shopping street is about to launch, friends are coming over again. What's scary is that they all have connections and are wealthy friends. "Not that many, really. They're the ones I met last time when I went to bring Sister Fang back." "Fang Fei? I remember that trip took quite long. How did you meet them?" Li Zhong couldn't understand how bringing Fang Fei back could lead to making so many affluent friends. Xia Liu's networking seemed unbeatable. "It was on a boat. There was a problem with the power system, and I fixed it. Then they all got to know me." "Ah, I see, that's how it happened. Let's go downstairs to meet them..."
