Half an hour later, a young man and woman walked out of the gate of the Administration for Industry and Commerce.
After looking at each other for a few seconds, the two suddenly hugged tightly.
Li Ya jumped up and down with joy, like a child, "Qin Chuan, we got the loan!"
"We succeeded!!!"
Qin Chuan was also very happy, his face full of smiles, "Yes, we have money now! Everything is ready, just waiting to start!"
Shang Bingrong, as the head of the bank, approved the two million loan as soon as he said it, extremely efficiently. The money would be available in a week.
This sum of money was truly vital for Qin Chuan and Li Ya!
With this money, the construction site could start, and many plans could be implemented. The biggest stone in Qin Chuan and Li Ya's hearts was finally lifted.
"We must thank President Shang properly in the future. He helped us out tremendously this time!" Qin Chuan said.
"Yes, that's for sure!" Li Ya nodded emphatically.
"I'll call Liu Long right now and see how his work is going!"
Qin Chuan took out his phone and dialed Liu Long's number. The phone rang a few times before being quickly answered.
"Qin Chuan!"
"Brother Long, we haven't been in touch for a few days. How are the houses in the village coming along?"
"We'll finish today and be completely done tomorrow!"
"Really? That's great!" Qin Chuan was a little surprised. "Brother Long, do you remember what I told you last time about the property development?"
"Of course, I remember. I wanted to ask you too, has your funding arrived? When will you start construction? So I can contact the workers and machines in advance!" Liu Long asked.
"We've just finalized things with the bank. The money will arrive in a week, so you can contact your workmates!"
"That's fantastic!!" Liu Long was also very happy to hear the news. After a few more casual words, they hung up.
"Sis, next, we need to handle all sorts of procedures. I think we should find County Head Ye for this. With his help, everything will be much easier!" Qin Chuan said to Li Ya.
"Okay, shall we go see County Head Ye now?" Li Ya asked.
"Yes, let's go now! We're on a tight schedule, no time to delay!"
"And we also need to subtly inquire if there are any preferential policies from the government..."
The two drove to the county government. Ye Qingping was very enthusiastic when he saw Qin Chuan and Li Ya.
Upon learning Qin Chuan's intention, he smiled and said, "You kid, you really know how to seize an opportunity. You're trying to get some favors from the government!"
"Of course! We ordinary folks, who else can we rely on if not the government? With the government's vast resources, even a tiny bit leaking from their fingers is equivalent to generations of hard work for us common people!" Qin Chuan said with a thick skin.
"Besides, I'm contributing to our county by boosting the economy and improving the urban landscape. The government should naturally lend some support!"
"Hahaha!!!" Ye Qingping burst into laughter. He increasingly admired this young man who had saved his sister and niece. He was daring, proactive, and shameless, not afraid to speak his mind. Such a person, unless something major happened, would surely achieve great things. He was simply born to be a businessman! At present, Yongnan County, a dilapidated and poor small county, desperately needed such talent for reform and revitalization. Ye Qingping would find ways to support him even if Qin Chuan hadn't asked.
"Don't worry, you'll get what you deserve!" Ye Qingping promised.
"Thank you, County Head Ye!" Qin Chuan was very happy. Li Ya, sitting beside him, also beamed. Today was definitely a good day, with one piece of good news after another.
"County Head Ye, there's one more small matter that requires your assistance." Qin Chuan continued.
"Speak!" Ye Qingping uttered a single word concisely.
"It's like this, I'm going to build buildings, and many procedures haven't been completed yet..." Before Qin Chuan could finish speaking, Ye Qingping raised his hand to stop him. "No need to say more!"
Under the expectant gaze of Qin Chuan and Li Ya, Ye Qingping picked up the phone on his desk. "Xiao Wang, come in!"
Less than thirty seconds later, there was a knock on the door, and a man with a neat buzz cut, dressed immaculately, walked in and respectfully called out, "Leader!"
"This is my secretary, Wang Pingan!" Ye Qingping introduced, then said to Wang Pingan, "Xiao Wang, you'll take Qin Chuan and the others to handle all the procedures for building the houses."
"Yes, Leader!" Wang Pingan nodded.
"Then, County Head Ye, we won't disturb you any longer. Goodbye!!" Qin Chuan stood up.
"County Head Ye, goodbye!" Li Ya also stood up.
After leaving the county government, the three got into a Santana and headed straight for the local Administration for Industry and Commerce.
They were busy all day. Although the county town was not large, there were too many procedures for building houses, and approvals were needed from various departments. Even with Wang Pingan leading the way, the department heads were very polite and processed things as quickly as possible, but it still couldn't be finished in a short time.
This was because Qin Chuan took this rare opportunity to register three companies at once. They were named Yaoshi Real Estate Company, Yaohui Decoration Company, and the third was named Zichuan Company!
The legal representatives of Yaoshi Real Estate were Qin Gang and Li Ya. The legal representative of Yaohui Decoration Company was his elder brother Qin Yang, while Qin Chuan himself was the legal representative of Zichuan Company.
However, the actual holding company for Yaoshi Real Estate and Yaohui Decoration was Zichuan Company, and it was the sole controlling entity. Qin Chuan was the only legal representative, manipulating everything behind the scenes, a common practice in modern business. In the future, if he made a lot of money, Qin Chuan would definitely not show his face too much, and would even consider moving the registered location of Zichuan Company to Hong Kong or abroad. It was like a pyramid, with only one apex, and all other components forming the subordinate members. If he were to establish other companies in the future, Qin Chuan would also incorporate them into his Zichuan series, much like the embryo of a chaebol.
Unknowingly, night had fallen. After dinner, Qin Chuan drove Wang Pingan back, and bought him several packs of cigarettes, liquor, and other gifts. Finally, he also sent Li Ya home.
"Qin Chuan, why don't you stay here tonight..." As Qin Chuan was about to leave, Li Ya couldn't help but say. Under the dim porch light, her bright and beautiful face was tinged with a slight blush.
As if afraid Qin Chuan would misunderstand, Li Ya quickly added, "I have plenty of space here, several rooms!"
At this moment, Qin Chuan found his heart racing. Even as someone with two lives, seeing the mature and alluring beauty before him still stirred some desire. A man and a woman, alone in a room, neither married, it was simply a match made in heaven, like dry wood meeting a spark. Moreover, since his rebirth, Qin Chuan had not yet experienced intimacy. This was quite painful for a young, strong man with abundant energy and the soul of an old man.
However, Qin Chuan quickly used his strong willpower to extinguish the spark that had ignited in his heart! The reason was simple: Li Ya was his business partner. Once their relationship crossed that line, it would fundamentally change. This was highly taboo in the business world because no one knew what the future held, and people's hearts were the most fickle.
"Ahem, I need to go to the hospital to see my parents. They haven't seen me for a long time!" Qin Chuan finally made an excuse and left in a hurry.
Only Li Ya remained in the room with a disappointed expression. Based on her woman's keen intuition, she sensed that Qin Chuan had been avoiding her, yet Li Ya couldn't figure out why after much thought. Was it because she was getting a bit old... Thinking of this, Li Ya felt incredibly sad, because it was indeed the truth!
