Chapter 502: Chapter 232: The Shocking Plan - Swallowing an Elephant Whole_3

If he took charge before August 2015 and held off selling until the second half of 2016, the average price could reach 60,000. Good heavens, a total of 9 billion!

What the heck is this so-called fat profit?! This is it! A profit of over 6 billion... To earn that through skillful trading in the market, I’d need to start with a capital of 6 billion and then double it. That’s indeed quite a hard task for anyone. As for how to get the property into my hands... simple.

Han Lie steadied his emotions and quickly came up with a win-win solution.

"Mr. Dou, when I design the project structure, I can add an extra layer of special security. Let me explain it simply. If Minggu Company can’t produce the cash, an intermediary institution will take over the Ming Capital project. They will then immediately transfer the 2.5 billion in principal and interest into your account. How the intermediary sells the houses is their business. This will absolutely ensure the safety of your funds."

This was not a bluff; when Mr. Lie said he would do something, he did it.

"It can be done like this? That’s fantastic!"

Dou Mingde was overjoyed, his interest in the Ming Capital project becoming visibly intense.

"If the contract is signed exactly as you said, I can assure you that we at SAIC are willing to invest this money. A return of 6.5% would be sufficient. How many treasury bonds would Old Xing have to buy to achieve such a high yield?"

Okay, the capital cost is confirmed: a maximum of 6.5%. The bank’s custodial fee is 1%. The broker’s channel fee will depend on negotiations, but 0.5% should be nearly enough. The trust’s management fee is 2%. Law firms, accounting firms, and appraisal agencies will total 1.2%. Spend where necessary, save where possible—the entire project can be comfortably kept below 12%. Then, I’ll ask Gu Yong for 18%, and I can take home a full 6%. That’s 150 million! Okay, calm down, small change, small change~~~

Han Lie didn’t plan to keep all the intermediary profits for himself; he intended to share another 5% with Panzi.

Why?

To appoint Panzi as the fail-safe guarantee institution.

Then, they would sign a clandestine agreement detailing the project’s ownership and clarifying the use of those 2.5 billion in fail-safe funds.

If Panzi was willing to trust him, they could partner up for a big score, splitting the profits from house sales evenly when the time came.

If Panzi had reservations, it would be considered a collateralized loan. Han Lie would handle the properties himself later, while giving his father-in-law an additional 15% in loan interest.

In any case, Panzi was guaranteed not to lose out, while Han Lie was set for a major windfall.

Surely, his father-in-law would agree? No, not ’would’—he definitely will! I’ll make sure to talk him into it! If Panzi really dares to go wild with me and we end up profiting 3 billion to serve as Pan Ge’s dowry, boy, how high would my, Brother Lie’s, status in the family soar?

When the couple argues and an upset Pan Ge storms back to her parents’, her mom and dad would unite to scold her.

"You don’t know how to cherish a good husband like Han Lie. Sigh, your mother and I have spoiled you..."

"Little Han is out there working hard. He made a mistake that every man makes; what’s the big deal! Darling girl, you’re in the wrong this time."

"Don’t linger at our house. Hurry back to your own place and sincerely apologize to Han Lie. Remember, be earnest!"

"Until you give us a grandson, you’re not very welcome here. Don’t come back next time."

Pan Ge would be like: (⊙ˍ⊙)!!!

Are you guys even my real parents?!

Just imagining Pan Ge’s face on the brink of collapse, incredulous and dumbfounded, nearly made Han Lie burst into laughter. This wasn’t a baseless fantasy but a highly probable reality.

As long as the money can be obtained smoothly and divided equally, forget fathers-in-law, mothers-in-law, Uncle Pan, and Auntie Zhao—they’d become Panzi and Annie! Exaggeration? Not in the slightest.

This was an opportunity created by the perfect alignment of time, location, and people—a rarity. If time were pushed forward by just half a year, Han Lie wouldn’t dare entertain such a delightful prospect. Half a year later, Han Lie would definitely not be short of money and could cover everything himself, but the window of opportunity would be gone. The project wouldn’t face a cold market; instead, it would be in high demand. It had to be now; everything was just right.

Han Lie immediately made up his mind. I’m sorry, President Gu, but I’ve got you in my sights! As for the two shareholders behind President Gu... No problem. Not an issue at all.

Because Han Lie hadn’t played any tricks behind the scenes; everything was done according to the contract, fair and square.

Have I cheated anyone? No. If you’re capable, sell all the houses during the market cooldown and recover enough cash. Or, without sufficient collateral, find a way to suddenly borrow 2.9 billion to repay the principal and interest. If you can really do that, Brother Lie here will accept defeat. But if you can’t... then it’s because the timing wasn’t right; the market collapse caused by the general environment is nobody’s fault. Heaven punishes you, and Heaven bestows upon me!

In his past life, Han Lie had heard of such things, but he had never truly witnessed them.

Now, he was about to set up a ten-billion-dollar killing game with his own hands.

Damn it, this is just too thrilling...

Even though his heart was pounding with excitement, Han Lie didn’t say a word to Liu Minghao or Dou Mingde about it, behaving as usual, speaking as usual, smiling as usual.

Until the entire affair was settled, he would only allow Panzi to understand the inside story.

"Lawyer Liu, remember to help me apply for a fund company while you’re at it."

Han Lie even reminded Liu Minghao with a smile, smoothly changing the subject to something unrelated.

"After we wrap up the Ming Capital project, the market should hit rock bottom."

Dou Mingde was curious. "So we just do nothing and maintain a completely empty position for the time being?"

Han Lie nodded. "Year-end is the financial settlement period for various companies. There’s already less capital circulating in the market, and many funds need to be recovered. There’s no point in engaging in such lousy market conditions."

Liu Minghao understood and urged Han Lie, "Then don’t just sit idle. Use this time to prepare the project proposal. After New Year’s Day, I’ll go talk to the securities firms and trusts." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Alright, let’s wish ourselves all the best!"

Han Lie stretched out his right hand, opened it, and laid it flat.

Liu Minghao and Dou Mingde slapped their hands on his, one with a relaxed smile, the other brimming with fighting spirit.

They both believed that there was no reason for this project to fail.

Yet, no matter what, they couldn’t imagine what kind of storm was brewing in the heart of the young man before them.

Every generation has its legends. Why can’t it be me?

Han Lie stood with his hands behind his back before the window in the principal’s office, watching the playful and laughing peers below, his heart surging, unable to calm down for a long time.
