The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 386

Chapter 386 - Rent Them All!

The owner of Empire Community, Boss Fong, was left completely stunned upon hearing Su Ming's words. What exactly was happening?

Just then, someone came running over in a hurry. “Boss Fong, I've notified many employees already. We'll be able to start checking the property deeds shortly.” It was Manager Ma, the same person who had earlier ejected Su Ming from the premises.

As Manager Ma finished his report, he noticed his boss's complexion had turned ghostly white. “Boss Fong, are you alright?” he asked anxiously.

“Mr. Su is no longer interested in buying our house,” Boss Fong replied.

“How can that be? Where is Mr. Su?” Manager Ma scanned the area.

Then he spotted Su Ming sitting inside a vehicle. What a small world! He couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly before approaching Su Ming, mistaking him for a truck driver. “What a coincidence to see you again! Do you know where Mr. Su might be?” Manager Ma inquired with an air of superiority.

Standing to the side, Boss Fong's face was a picture of terror. He was itching to give Manager Ma a piece of his mind. Mr. Su was clearly dissatisfied with them, and yet Manager Ma had the audacity to address him in such a manner?

Boss Fong thought back to Manager Ma's recent words and it dawned on him that there had been a previous encounter between Manager Ma and Su Ming. Could there have been a confrontation?

Boss Fong was well aware of Manager Ma's overbearing nature. His professional skills were strong, and he had a knack for flattery, which is why Boss Fong had never considered letting him go. But now, he realized that Manager Ma might have caused a serious problem.

In a swift motion, Boss Fong delivered a sharp slap across Manager Ma's face. Manager Ma was left reeling from the impact. “Boss Fong, what's this about?” he asked, his voice filled with shock.

“You idiot! That man is Mr. Su!” Boss Fong bellowed.

Other business owners watched the scene with a mix of interest and pity, knowing full well that Boss Fong had been advised to dismiss Manager Ma but had chosen not to. Now, with the trouble Manager Ma had stirred up, they felt powerless to assist.

Manager Ma was speechless, his mind racing back to Su Ming's earlier words. It was only now that he realized the truth in them.

Near tears, Manager Ma lamented his mistake. Su Ming was indeed wealthy, yet he dressed so unassumingly. Had Su Ming been clad in luxury and arrived in an expensive car, Manager Ma would have surely treated him with the utmost respect.

“Mr. Su, I'm truly sorry. It's entirely my fault for not managing my team properly. I recognize my mistake. Please, I'm asking for your forgiveness.”

Boss Fong was on the verge of tears, his anxiety palpable.

Without Su Ming's purchase, Boss Fong knew that a refund would be effortless for someone of Su Ming's influence.

He could sell the houses to someone else.

However, the crux of the matter was that all the potential buyers who could afford these houses were aware that he had crossed Mr. Su, and they certainly wouldn't risk purchasing them. No one wanted to be on Mr. Su's bad side.

The only other option was to slash the prices so much that the average person could afford them.

But that would mean a substantial financial hit for him.

“Just leave.”

Su Ming's voice was icy as he sat in the car.

Boss Fong froze in shock.

He turned to Manager Ma, his anger flaring up as he yelled, “This is all your fault!”

Boss Fong slapped Manager Ma once more.

“You're fired! Leave now!” he bellowed.

“Don't think I'm unaware of your actions within the company.”

“I know you've been misappropriating company funds repeatedly! I'm calling the police to have you arrested this instant!”

“You're going to prison!”

Boss Fong's voice thundered with rage.

Manager Ma was overcome with despair.

Just a minute before, he was the esteemed Manager Ma; now, he was on the brink of becoming a convicted felon.

“Take him away!”

Boss Fong's irritation with Manager Ma grew by the second. Two security guards stepped in and escorted Manager Ma away. Shortly thereafter, the police arrived and detained him.

Boss Fong, standing behind his vehicle, was frantic.

Sweat dripped from his brow as he trembled uncontrollably.

What was he to do?

“Mr. Su!”

In a shaky voice, Boss Fong proposed, “What if I offer you a 50% discount?”

“I'm not short on cash.”

Su Ming's response nearly caused Boss Fong to collapse.

After a lengthy contemplation, Boss Fong ventured, “Mr. Su, since you've bought so many houses, you're surely planning to rent them out, right? What if I handle the rentals for you? Rest assured, I'll take care of everything personally and won't charge you a penny extra.”

Su Ming considered the offer, recognizing the logic in Boss Fong's words.

He had indeed planned to rent out the houses and certainly needed someone to oversee the process.

He owned three thousand houses, but managing them was beyond his capacity.

Regardless, he was unwilling to let it interfere with his farming.

Following this ordeal, Boss Fong was sure to proceed with extreme caution. It made sense to entrust him with the management of these properties.

“Alright.”

Su Ming pondered briefly and gave a nod of approval.

It wasn't Boss Fong's fault, after all.

“Boss Fong, I'm entrusting this issue to you.”

“Of course, Mr. Su!”

Boss Fong breathed a sigh of relief, his knees buckling, nearly collapsing to the ground.

His clothes were drenched in sweat.

Su Ming tossed several large bags from the car onto the ground.

Boss Fong quickly summoned his staff to tally the property deeds.

Inside the car, Su Ming was thoroughly enjoying himself, engrossed in a mobile game.

At the car door, four groups were diligently counting the property deeds, surrounded by a throng of onlookers.

They captured the moment on their phones, a scene they were unlikely to witness again in their lifetimes!

In under thirty minutes, they completed the inventory of all the property certificates.

Su Ming stood up and stretched his back.

“Mr. Su, here's the inventory list for our five developments, along with the keys to each property.”

Boss Fong had effectively become Su Ming's personal assistant.

Su Ming nodded but didn't take the list or the keys. “Keep them. It'll make it easier for you to rent out these houses. And hold off on renting all the units in the Grand Court Neighborhood; reserve the top ten.”

“Understood, Mr. Su!”

Boss Fong responded eagerly.

“Rent?”

Su Ming's announcement rippled through the crowd, causing a stir.

“I'll take five units!”

“I want ten!”

“Give me three!”

The affluent bystanders chimed in one after another.

Some genuinely needed to rent several units.

Moreover, renting from Mr. Su could imply a connection to him.

They weren't about to miss out on such an opportunity.
