Chapter 517: Chapter 517 I’ll Pick Up the Tab_1

Mr. Bia had thought that this young man was already bold enough to initiate a new era, but he hadn’t expected that the young man didn’t take the matter to heart at all. He showed him the business plan and then immediately wanted to sign the contract, something not every young person could do.

Most would probably hesitate a bit, wondering whether they should buy the land, but this young man didn’t hesitate at all. He was very confident and felt that as soon as he agreed, they could sign the contract. Such audacity was something he didn’t possess even when he was young.

He began to think that if he had had such courage in his youth, he would probably be even wealthier now.

The topic drifted, and now he felt a bit impulsive, wanting to grant this young man a privilege, desiring to cooperate with him. He didn’t even know her name but finally understood why Mr. Ma was so fond of this young man. He was truly worthy.

"Alright, I’m willing to give you this land, but we have to cooperate. If there’s no profit, I can only take back my land. What do you think? I won’t charge you any fees during this process, but you’ll have to bear the construction costs yourself.

If it fails, you’ll have to bear the consequences alone. I won’t take responsibility for you. Do you think that’s acceptable? Because I can’t just blindly trust a young man, even if your business plan is very good."

Although Mr. Bia truly admired him, he couldn’t show it on the surface. Some young people, if they see that you really like them, might develop a certain mentality, which isn’t a good thing. So he decided to keep this part of his thoughts to himself.

Shen Dong was actually quite excited to hear such a forthright agreement. He wasn’t worried about making a profit; it was inevitable that the bar would make money.

"Mr. Bia, my name is Shen Dong. This name might be very unfamiliar to you now, but I believe in my abilities. In time, I will also become a man of wealth.

My name will be known by everyone. This is just the beginning. Thank you, Mr. Bia, for your willingness to trust me. We can sign the contract this afternoon. Please get ready. I trust your capabilities."

After saying this, Shen Dong felt it necessary to compliment the other party. It wouldn’t be right to just take the contract without acknowledgment. Fortunately, the other party was very straightforward. Since he had decided to cooperate, there were no doubts or hesitations, and they finally settled on the agreement.

"Good, seeing how straightforward you are, I believe in you. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation. Now, let me go prepare the contract. You can go back first. I also need to go back to my wife; I can’t keep her waiting too long."

After saying this, he directly left the room, looking very pleased because he had finally resolved a matter that had been on his mind. He had been worrying about what to do with that land for a very long time and couldn’t find the right solution. It was a relief that it was now settled.

The two men left with smiles on their faces. Mr. Ma was initially a bit nervous, but seeing the expressions on their faces quickly put his mind at ease. It seemed like the contract signing was successful, especially given Shen Dong’s jubilant demeanor.

It looked as though he had a weight lifted off his shoulders. It was quite amusing to see such a calm and composed youth show his emotions so openly these days.

Kang Yue knew Shen Dong the best and could tell from his expression that he had succeeded. She sent him a text message.

"Was it successful? You haven’t stopped smiling since you came out. I guess you did it, right? I really helped you out this time. Without me, you wouldn’t have been able to make the connection so quickly. I feel like you owe me more than those Ci Ling you bought for me. Maybe you should make it up to me. Don’t you think?"

Kang Yue, seeing his cheerful expression, made her request right away. As Shen Dong read the message, his smile faded slightly.

He couldn’t help but smirk. Such a little girl, calculating even this. He had bought her so many things before, and now she was still keeping tabs. Well, it couldn’t be helped now. What else could he do? He would just have to pamper her and buy them.

She was a capable person and indeed had helped him a great deal. His business was thriving. He replied to the text message, "When you get back, just pick out what you want, I’ll pay for everything on my credit card."

After sending this message, he turned off his phone. There were still banquet matters to attend to.

The celebration was not yet over; there was no room for complacency. Everyone should do what they needed to do. Mr. Ma felt immense pride in facilitating such a big deal also for his young friend. He stepped onto the stage and began to thank those in the audience, each of whom had contributed in their own way.

Some contributed money, others ideas, and some provided technical expertise. These contributions were helpful, and after expressing his gratitude, everyone shared a sense of collective honor and began to form different bonds.

"And now, the person I should thank most is the young man below, Shen Dong. Please come up and say a few words to us all. I can say that without this young friend of mine, things wouldn’t be so perfect now. It’s because of him that our enterprise has continued to improve. Let’s hear him share his growth alongside our enterprise over the years."

After Mr. Ma finished speaking, he directed the spotlight onto Shang Dong, and Shen Dong was completely dumbfounded. He hadn’t been told there would be this part of the event, and suddenly he was thrust into the spotlight, which made him quite embarrassed. He had no idea what to say.
