I Became the Mother of His Child

"This is a large luxury shopping mall! Currently, large luxury shopping malls in our country are mostly in first-tier major cities, such as B City and Shanghai, and now Z City is also welcoming a large luxury shopping mall. Once Soup City is completed, the flow of tourists will increase the purchasing rate of luxury goods. Without a doubt, this is a very promising industry. Just thinking about it excites and thrills me."

"Really, that's indeed great, you've worked hard." The area of the holiday villa at Soup City is too large, Xu Xiuxiu and Ye Hua had no way to build an expensive holiday villa, especially one of such a large size, so the two of them discussed and planned to use the approach of bringing in various well-known brands. Ye Hua was specifically in charge of negotiating with the various projects in Soup City.

Under the banner of the natural hot springs of Soup City, coupled with its considerable size and prospects, any business-minded person wouldn't refuse the olive branch Ye Hua threw out. There was money to be made, and no one would be foolish enough to push it away.

"My next step is to approach amusement park facilities. After all, children's money is the easiest to earn. We could try to bring in a huge amusement park and water park. This would also significantly increase the number of visitors. Parents bring their children, and there are places for children to play, as well as for adults. It can promote profits in both directions." Ye Hua excitedly explained, intent on pushing Soup City into the national spotlight, and even ambitiously planning to build a massive business empire of tourism, entertainment, and vacation.

"Amusement park?" Xu Xiuxiu was somewhat surprised by Ye Hua's business acumen and admired his foresight. Money from children was indeed easy to earn, and amusement parks were particularly profitable projects because children keep growing up in batches, and amusement parks cover a wide age range. It must be said that this is a terrific project, but Xu Xiuxiu couldn't help but gasp.

Bringing in a large luxury shopping mall was already challenging enough, and now planning to bring in an amusement park—an amusement park that typically involved an investment of hundreds of millions or more—was Soup City really capable of handling such a massive project? Moreover, amusement facilities and large shopping malls both take up a lot of space. This hectare of land might not be nearly enough!

Xu Xiuxiu thought, vaguely anxious about Ye Hua's big appetite.

"Ye Hua, I have to remind you, our Soup City covers only 10000 square meters. Are you sure the area for these large projects is sufficient? Besides, bringing in those large projects would definitely monopolize our funds!" Xu Xiuxiu calmly warned Ye Hua, not that she wanted to dampen his spirits, but considering their capabilities, they really were not suited to bite off more than they could chew.

"I know. That's why I came to you today. I'm planning to invest my entire net worth to build a well-known domestic tourist destination. Xu Xiuxiu, do you dare to take this gamble with me?" Ye Hua seriously explained, handing over the document he was holding tightly to Xu Xiuxiu.

Xu Xiuxiu, cradling Little Moon in her arms, saw Ye Hua hand over the document and carefully took it from him, turning back to her office to sit and review it.

"Ye Hua, you're planning to buy up the 50000 square meters of land nearby the suburbs? Oh my!" Xu Xiuxiu unconsciously swallowed after examining the information in the document.

She remembered that besides the land in the suburbs in her previous life, there were plenty of shopping malls, amusement parks, etc., popping up nearby. Even before she was reincarnated, Z City had become a national 5A scenic spot, receiving up to fifty million tourists from various places every year. Xu Xiuxiu was very interested in hot springs and had always wanted to have an opportunity to bask in them, but since it was a bit far, she never managed to achieve that. Now, knowing the first-mover advantage, she intended to be the first to develop the natural hot springs.

However, what Ye Hua was currently offering also astounded her even more. She was very aware of the future value of the place, but she wasn't daring enough to expand her ideas and business so massively. Nor did she plan to change too much of the historical trajectory. She just wanted to be moderately wealthy, but she didn't dare to be too wealthy. If she and Ye Hua had total control over the key profits and benefits of this 5A scenic spot, the potential earnings were indeed substantial.

A 5A scenic spot! A large amusement park, a luxury shopping mall, what a concept! Even knowing the development of the next two or three decades more than others, Xu Xiuxiu couldn't imagine achieving this.

"Xu Xiuxiu, let's join hands and take all of that land into our grasp! Even if we don't invest, don't bring in amusement facilities or other projects, just acquiring this land and waiting for Soup City to be completed before selling it, we could make a hefty profit," Ye Hua said, his tone carrying a sense of longing.

Xu Xiuxiu was very tempted by Ye Hua's words.

She was also clearly aware that what Ye Hua was saying was true. Taking hold of this 50000 square meters of陆 land and then reselling it after the completion of Soup City wouldn't be doubt lucrative. But people are like this, small riches are calmly faced, but when a giant gold mine lands before you, let's see if you still have the calm to deal with it. Clearly, at this moment, Xu Xiuxiu was hesitant and somewhat at a loss faced with such a big piece of the pie.

"Ye Hua, might this be spreading ourselves too thin?" Xu Xiuxiu hesitantly voiced.

"Starvation stalks the timid, and surfeit slays the daring. Xu Xiuxiu, that's just how the world is—are you daring enough to gamble?" Ye Hua's tone was very firm: "If we successfully take hold of this land and then introduce something like a major amusement facility akin to Disneyland in the United States, just think what that would be like!" Ye Hua painted a grand picture in front of Xu Xiuxiu.

Xu Xiuxiu knew just how delectable and tempting this meaty pie was, yet she was still timid.

"Ye Hua, let me think about it," Xu Xiuxiu hesitated to say.

"Xu Xiuxiu, please reply to me as soon as you can. You should know that the more complete Soup City becomes, the higher the price we'll have to pay for that 50000 square meters of land tomorrow. You should be clear on that," Ye Hua urgently reminded Xu Xiuxiu.

She knew, of course, she knew! How could she not be aware? The world was full of people with business acumen, and Xu Xiuxiu naturally knew this. After all, China's richest tycoons, who started their ventures in the late 1980s and slowly became wealthy, were few and far between.

"I'll give you an answer tomorrow," Xu Xiuxiu said, calming her thoughts.

"Good. I'll wait for that. I hope you won't disappoint me," Ye Hua nodded in agreement, adding a hopeful remark at the end.
