Sure enough, not long after walking, I saw a row of four cars in the distance, neatly lined up in front of Tao's house.
The cars were all black. They had probably been driven on the dirt road for a long time, and their bodies were covered in gray.
All the people in the car got out and were waiting in front of the door. They were all dressed quite formally and looked like they were part of the scene. They were looking in the direction of their group.
Tao Le had a ridiculous idea in her mind. Among these people, her newly minted third senior brother wouldn't be among them, right?
It's really impossible. No matter how sharp his nose is, he can't find this place out of thin air. She has never mentioned the specific address of her grandfather's house to anyone.
With her eyesight, she could clearly see the details on those faces even from hundreds of meters away. There was no one who looked suspiciously like Luo Tongyuan.
She breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that they were not here to find her, that was good.
As he approached, village director Bao Datong greeted him.
"Mr. Tao, you are finally back!" This dark-faced middle-aged man greeted Tao Haogu with a smile on his face, but his eyes kept looking behind him.
When his eyes fell on Tao Xingyi, who looked like a successful man in suits and leather shoes, he obviously stayed for a while.
"Director Bao?" Tao Haogu was a little surprised. What was the village director doing with a group of people blocking his door?
Moreover, when he talks to himself, he always calls him Lao Tao. Why did he change it to Lao Tao today?
"Hey, Mr. Tao, these are all your relatives and juniors? These are all excellent and talented people!" He grabbed Tao Haogu's hand and shook it enthusiastically.
This enthusiasm made Tao Haogu lose his temper.
"No, Director Bao, who are these people? Why are they gathering in front of my house?"
"Ah, it's not because of your good training, but there is a talented person among the younger generation in the family!"
After Bao Datong finished speaking, he took his hand and took him to the back. He pointed at the people on the side who were also smiling and introduced them one by one:
"These are the leaders of the county and township who have made a special trip to see you. This is County Magistrate Chen of Taiping County, this is Director Ren of the County Investment Promotion Bureau, and Township Magistrate Lou of Fanggang Township."
Tao Haogu has never seen so many great leaders in his life.
All of them were smiling and approachable. They shook hands with him one by one, exchanged greetings, and said very pleasant words about running a family well and educating talents for the country. They made the old man feel dizzy with their praise.
Fortunately, he understood that these people were definitely not here to see him. There is a talented person in your family, who is it?
When Tao Haogu was surrounded by people, Tao Haozhe and Tao Xingyi saw it and guessed something in their hearts.
"I can't believe that our return to the mainland this time was obviously for a low-key visit to relatives, but I didn't expect that the news would still be leaked." Tao Haozhe looked at his eldest son and sighed.
"Dad, I thought of this before I came back. Our Maofeng is quite famous in Longgang. Now that we are back, it is inevitable that we will be targeted."
Tao Xingyi frowned: "It seems that if you don't peel off a layer of skin, you may not be able to leave well."
Tao Haogu also felt a little regretful. If we don't get the things, and people from the countryside and counties come to try to bring about famine, we will definitely not be able to do it without some blood. But this regret cannot be admitted in front of his son.
"After all, this is my hometown. Without this village and without you, what can I do if I make some contribution? I won't come forward later. You go and talk to them. As long as the demands are not excessive, it doesn't matter whether it is building bridges, paving roads or building buildings. The factory all agreed."
"Okay." Tao Xingyi had no other choice: "There must be a quota. That's what I think. Do you think I can invest one million?"
"It's a bit less. One and a half million." Tao Haozhe added something more: "I was born here, grew up here, so I should give something back to here!"
The two of them discussed it well and entered the topic there.
After some conversation, Director Ren of the County Investment Promotion Bureau said, "Mr. Tao, to be honest with you, we are here with a mission today."
"I heard that Mr. Tao of our family is responsible for the investment and establishment of a factory in our Fanggang Township. I wonder who he is?"
When he said this, both Tao Haogu and the three brothers Tao Xingqian, including Tao Le, were a little confused.
Mr. Tao, there are too many Mr. Tao here. Which one are they looking for? Moreover, they have neither the idea nor the strength to invest and build a factory in Fanggang Township!
The Tao family looked around for a long time, and when even the leaders standing in front felt strange, Tao Xingyi slowly walked out.
"The person you are looking for should be me, right?" He was also a little surprised by the directness of the leader here. Without saying a word, he was given the name to invest in building a factory, which made him both funny and angry. .
"Mr. Tao, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Led by County Magistrate Chen, a group of people immediately gathered around and shook hands with him enthusiastically. For a while, everyone heard praises such as being far-sighted and responsible. Ci.
When the gossip was almost over, County Magistrate Chen spoke with a smile on his face: "I wonder if your company is going to build a factory in Fanggang this time. What are its site selection requirements, and what are your ideas in terms of supporting facilities and conditions? "
"You're welcome, just mention it. I'm here to express my position on behalf of the county. In terms of policy, I will definitely support it fully!"
He smiled and looked at the slightly fat man with a receding hairline: "Chief Lou, this may be the largest project in the history of the township, and it will benefit from it for many years to come - please say a few words!"
Tao Xingyi gradually felt that something was wrong. No matter how small this township is, there can still be 180 multi-million-level companies, right?
He was only prepared to invest 1.5 million at most. How could it become the largest investment project in Fanggang Township?
Or maybe, the appetite in Taiping County is too big and they are planning to move the head office here? Our own Maofeng Department Store has a market value of 300-400 million yuan, so it can afford to be a major project.
However, the market value is the market value, and Tao Xingyi only has about 10 million working capital on hand, so it is impossible to invest all of it in this poor ravine.
Mayor Lou is a very down-to-earth person: "Mr. Tao, don't worry, you can choose our land in Fanggang Township. As long as it is the land you like, we will let you use it for free. Manpower, material resources, electricity and water will all be given to you as a priority!”
Seeing everyone turning their attention to him, Tao Xingyi also made up his mind.
"Then thank County Magistrate Chen, Township Magistrate Lou and all the leaders for their kindness!" Tao Xingyi said:
"Our Maofeng Department Store is cooperating with the mainland to invest in three phases this time, with an investment of 1.5 million yuan in the first phase."
Before he finished speaking, he noticed that County Magistrate Chen and others in front of him had strange expressions on their faces, and they began to whisper to each other and discuss something in a low voice.
