Chapter 360: Chapter 279 Good Idea

Li Zhijun was thinking that since they had reached middle age and had the opportunity to develop, of course, they wanted to be bosses.

Being a boss seemed risky at the moment. Purchasing the estate at such a high price and aiming to make a profit would require tremendous effort. The question was whether it was worth it.

Another risk was that the brothers had finally saved a bit of money. This was the result of their hard work over two years of savings. If they lost it, it would mean two years of effort wasted.

Li Zhijun wasn’t very confident because the estate was also suggested by his niece. His group had enthusiastically invested in it, and if he had heard about this deal before the estate was put up for sale, he definitely would have approved it.

At that moment, he couldn’t help but consider whether it was indeed worth it.

Seeing his elder brother silent, Li Zhihao understood that his brother was more cautious. If he were to invest, he would think it over carefully. At this moment, they were merely discussing, and the next step still needed another investor’s input.

Li Zhijun was silent for a long while before he finally said,

"Young brother, reaching middle age, if there’s a chance, why not go for it? I also think so, as you see. This estate cost so much, and yet it still hasn’t generated any income, your elder brother’s heart is heavy."

Li Zhijun treated the products of his own relatives differently from his own products. This estate was managed and built under his leadership during a time of great enthusiasm, assuming that it would quickly start generating money and represent a peak in his career.

That’s how Li Zhijun expressed his worries. How could his brother not understand him!

"Elder brother, let’s wait until our brother-in-law arrives and discuss it together! I think having an existing estate, which doesn’t require building a house, saves a lot of effort. If that mountain needs to be planted with medicinal herbs, it might cost some effort next year.

Li Zhijun nodded.

Li Zhihao continued, "If the crops there could develop as lush as the neighbors’, buying it at a higher price might quickly pay off."

Li Zhijun hesitated and shook his head, "That’s just our self-consoling reasoning."

"Elder brother, your estate hasn’t generated any income because the construction here is different, the industries are different. We can’t generalize everything."

Li Zhijun nodded and said, "Yes, different functions, they can’t be compared in the same way!"

At that moment, saying this, he slowly had an idea in his mind, but he didn’t fully clarify it to his brother right away.

Even if they and the brother-in-law agreed on doing this, they still needed to take such a significant matter home for consultation.

To do this, they still needed a plan. As they thought, The Mengs had priced the estate so high that likely no one could buy it all at once.

Once they had discussed it, they also needed to monitor the timing closely to ensure no one noticed they were firmly intent on buying the estate, as this would not only prevent a price reduction but might also lead to a price increase.

There was also another possibility that they wouldn’t rush to sell, aiming for a higher sale price.

With the current circumstances, hurrying to sell and shifting their mindset would differ; human psychology is such that competition induces a perception of greater value of an item.

If they decided to buy, they couldn’t leak the news beforehand, as others might come to compete.

As the brothers were discussing, Hongji arrived.

Hongji had rushed over right after dinner, without even informing his family.

At present, he was a certain business owner, and many matters did not require consultation with his family. He would complete the task and then discuss; some matters needed to be kept confidential.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust his family, but there were many outsiders in the household, not just their family but also employees.

The weather was cold, and when Hongji arrived, he found the door closed. When he knocked, Young Uncle opened the door for him.

Upon closing the door, though it wasn’t exceedingly cold in the Southern area, the outside north wind was chilling; the staff dormitory here had no furnace.

Li Zhihao thoughtfully poured a cup of hot tea for Hongji.

Hongji indeed felt cold from the walk, and the warmth from his recent meal had been blown away.

Hongji unhesitatingly drank the entire cup of tea, not minding the heat.

After finishing the tea and setting down the cup, he looked at his two elder uncles, Young Uncle.

"Zhihao, what was it that you were saying you needed to discuss with me?"

Hongji felt that the matters of the estate might have been discussed with his wife by the two brothers.

After all, he spent all day working at the factory, and he didn’t need to deal with anything that wasn’t of major importance.
