141: Unexpected disaster

Chen Qiu returned to the car with the necklace and began taking stock of the rewards from this blind date.

First were 35 properties nationwide, including houses in Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan!

Chen Qiu took a quick look; these houses were generally located in city centers, new homes with an area of 120 square meters!

The average unit price was generally above ten or twenty thousand!

In more economically developed areas, it even reached thirty or forty thousand!

As for those first-tier cities, except for Guangzhou, which was slightly lower at less than seventy thousand...

The unit prices in Beijing and Shanghai directly broke through one hundred thousand!

What surprised Chen Qiu the most were Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan... The unit prices in Hong Kong and Taiwan were both no lower than those in Shanghai, making Macau, with a unit price of only seventy thousand, seem somewhat lackluster in comparison.

Moreover, the houses in these two places were also 120-square-meter layouts!

At this size in these two locations, they could definitely be called luxury homes!

"Calculating it all, the value of these houses has surpassed a hundred million."

Chen Qiu's mouth curled up slightly.

It was indeed the right choice to drag Xu Jia along to start an asset management company back then!

Otherwise, these houses would just be left there to gather dust.

Real estate counts as an asset that can be liquidated immediately, but the other reward was just an empty framework!

Ten million in investment funds for a light medical aesthetics institution, along with a complete business plan.

Setting aside the ten million investment for a moment, after Chen Qiu glanced at the business plan for the light medical aesthetics venture, he was instantly amazed!

Just like the previous Cultural Industry Park proposal, the plan contained a meticulous Clearance Strategy!

If it were just that, Chen Qiu wouldn't have been too surprised.

This business plan had one difference from the Cultural Industry Park proposal.

Even though it was supposed to be a business plan, it contained medical beauty technology that was ahead of the industry!

Non-invasive Gene-Targeted Anti-Aging Technology... Quantum-Level Targeted Repair Technology for Sensitive Skin... Recombinant MUSSEL-SOD ultra-active fusion protein... Chen Qiu couldn't understand any of it.

But after seeing the notes behind each technology and raw material innovation stating they were three to five years ahead of the world and could be perfectly replicated at present, Chen Qiu instantly realized how heaven-defying this proposal was!

He didn't know much about light medical aesthetics, but he knew that even for light medical aesthetics, there were absorption and recovery periods.

Whichever company's medical beauty treatments are absorbed better and recover faster would undoubtedly form a huge advantage!

And the various technologies and innovative raw materials in the proposal directly achieved a crushing lead over the current light medical aesthetics industry!

This was a proposal that could truly send a light medical aesthetics institution to the top of the industry!

"System products must be high-quality!"

Chen Qiu's heart was filled with excitement!

As long as it was operated properly, the profits this business plan would bring him could likely exceed all the rewards obtained from previous blind dates!

"As expected, the friends introduced by He Ting are truly impressive!"

At this time, Chen Qiu thought of another girl introduced by He Ting, a dance teacher they had tentatively agreed to meet tonight.

He checked his phone; unfortunately, the friend request hadn't been accepted yet.

Chen Qiu wasn't in a hurry; there were still several hours until evening.

"I hope this one can also bring me a surprise!"

Chen Qiu ignited the engine and started the G63. With a deep, thick roar, he drove out of the mall's underground garage.

He planned to go to the Cultural Industry Group first.

To get a massage from Song Xiangtong and rest for a while, and also to give out these necklaces before the holiday... Xin County, Bureau of Finance.

Town Head Qi—oh no, it should be Director Qi Wang now—was currently handling work.

Transferring from being a town head to the county's Bureau of Finance as director might seem like a lateral move from one section-level position to another, but Xin County was a powerful county in Gannan!

He was in charge of the Bureau of Finance, which held the core power in the county; it was definitely a promotion.

A promotion to the deputy division level was just around the corner!

With a bright career path ahead, Qi Wang was working quite energetically.

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang.

Qi Wang looked at the somewhat familiar name, and his brow furrowed slightly.

"Why is my old leader looking for me?"

When Qi Wang first entered officialdom, he had worked as a secretary under this old leader for five or six years.

His smooth career path over the years also had a certain relationship with this old leader.

Qi Wang answered the phone, and before he could speak, a barrage of criticism came from the other end.

"Qi Wang, you've really impressed me. You've been transferred from the town for over a year, yet your prestige as Town Head is becoming even more powerful!"

This remark from the old leader left Qi Wang dumbfounded!

What prestige?

I don't know anything about this!

Which bastard is trying to screw me over?

He subconsciously tried to explain.

However, the old leader's subsequent words left him even more dazed.

Ex-girlfriend?

Prospective father-in-law?

Kong Zhengde?

Throwing his weight around?

"This matter has reached the Municipal Committee, and the impact is extremely negative. Deal with it as quickly as possible!"

The busy tone of the hung-up phone reached his ears, and only then did Qi Wang recall who Kong Zhengde was.

"Wait..."

"Didn't I just go on one blind date with your daughter?"

"How did it become a past relationship with lingering feelings?"

"To think he's actually using my name to throw his weight around in town..."

Qi Wang was about to vomit blood!

He never imagined that he would one day suffer such a calamity out of the blue!

The most critical part was that this Kong Zhengde was truly damn arrogant.

Dropping his name in front of people from the Municipal Committee.

How come he didn't know he was that powerful?

Qi Wang took several deep breaths before his emotions calmed down slightly.

His expression had already become extremely ugly!

He picked up the landline and called his secretary.

"Xiao Li, go get the car ready now."

He had to go back personally!

At the same time, he immediately began contacting former colleagues from the town, planning to ask them one by one what exactly this Kong Zhengde had been doing after he left!

He had to prepare in advance.

If there was some exchange of interests involved, then it would be like having mud on his pants—it's hard to explain even if it isn't what it looks like!

At the thought of his bright career being cast in shadow, Qi Wang wanted to kill that old geezer!
