Chapter 322: Punishment to the point where you doubt your life

Lu Yaxun watched the content of the DVD, which showed Lin Wanfen and Xu Zhisen doing push-ups in the hotel.

This was already the third disc he had watched, and there were still eight or nine unopened discs on the table.

From the initial disbelief, to the anger and rage, to the cold-eyed observation! As expected of a person in the officialdom, he quickly calmed down!

If Lu Yaxun hadn't clenched his fists tightly, with anger in his eyes, I would have thought that he would enjoy it.

Lu Yaxun has been cautious over the years and never dared to cross the line. He didn't expect that he would be caught so thoroughly this time!

"Xu Zhisen, I will make you regret this! Definitely!"

Lu Yaxun then took out a document that had several people's names signed on it. It only needed a stamp to take effect.

However, Lu Yaxun directly set it on fire, and the file name on it was exactly "Application for Modification of the Floor Area Ratio of Yuanda Real Estate's No. 5 Site"!
After the files were completely burned to ashes, Lu Yaxun looked at the DVD discs and then quietly put them away.

Although he didn't know who sent it, he couldn't care less at this point. He just wanted to vent the rage in his heart.

His way of venting his anger was to take revenge on Xu Zhisen. As for anything else, he no longer cared.

Thinking about the teachings given to Lu Tao over the years, it was not as good as the influence of his biological father Xu Zhisen on him. Lu Tao had only been following Xu Zhisen for a short time, but he had already learned Xu Zhisen's way of doing things completely.

"Lu Tao is not my biological son after all!" Lu Yaxun sighed in his heart.

Then Lu Yaxun took out his mobile phone and dialed a phone number...!
······
Office of the Chairman of Yuanda Real Estate!

Xu Zhisen put down the phone and a proud smile appeared on his face. The news in the past few days can be described as good news.

After analysis by experts hired by the company at great expense, it was found that many problems had been discovered in just four months since the central bank announced its contractionary monetary policy for the real estate industry.

Obviously, this policy cannot be sustained for long unless the country can accept a slowdown in overall economic growth.

And now the problem of floor area ratio has been solved!
Therefore, starting the project now and setting the completion time for one year later will just catch up with the most prosperous period of real estate boom.

Because of the current policy, many real estate companies have stopped project construction, which means that one year later, there will not be so many houses for sale on the market.

As long as Yuanda Real Estate seizes this window of opportunity, it will definitely be able to take off on the spot.

Xu Zhisen now finally understood why Lin Hao acquired the land three months ago and couldn't wait to start construction. It was just to seize the opportunity!
Xu Zhisen lamented in his heart:
"What a pity! If he could continue to support the Frankfurt project, he would be able to turn things around immediately in less than a year. Unfortunately, it's too late now!"

Afterwards, Xu Zhisen asked his secretary to ask Lu Tao to come to the office. After Lu Tao came in, the two began to discuss the No. 5 site project.

After discussion between the two, the project was named "Utopia". It turned out that Lu Tao gave the project a very literary name because of Xia Lin's departure: "Heartbroken Utopia".

However, Xu Zhisen directly denied Lu Tao's naming:
"It's a utopia, but you're still heartbroken! You let the people who buy the house think that!"

"The house you designed is for people to live in. Do you think anyone will buy it when they hear this name?"

“If no one comes to buy your house, how can you prove that your design is successful!”

Under Xu Zhisen's persuasion, the name was changed to Utopia!
There are also design drawings. At the beginning, Lu Tao designed an ordinary residential building into a luxury house. Xu Zhisen was of course not happy about it. It was not that luxury houses were bad, but that luxury houses were difficult to sell.

Not buying means slow cash flow. Take the Palm Springs apartment for example. It has been almost two years since it was sold, and half of the house has not been sold.

The reason why he asked Lu Yaxun to change the floor area ratio was to build more floors and sell it for more money, but Lu Tao wanted to design it into a luxury house.

Xu Zhisen once again felt that his son was a traitor, but because of Lu Tao's obsession, he refused to give in.

So Xu Zhisen thought of Lin Hao's method, and divided the project into two parts according to the method of the land west of Chaoyang Park. One part was high-rise ordinary residential buildings, and the other was to build two luxury houses!

However, Lu Tao felt aggrieved in his heart, as he had to rely on Lin Hao in everything. But at least he got what he wanted.

Xu Zhisen then convened a meeting of company leaders to formally launch the project at Site No. 5.

"The new project is named "Utopia", and Lu Tao is appointed as the project manager of Utopia!"

After Xu Zhisen finished speaking, he immediately led the applause, and then applause broke out in the conference room.

Lu Tao had been a project manager after all, so he stood up calmly, nodded to everyone, and said:

"We are fully prepared this time. We hope everyone can work together to make Yuanda bigger and stronger!"

Two months later, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued "Document No. 18", and many real estate developers finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that spring was about to come.

However, the spring that the real estate developers were expecting did not come, but instead they got a big surprise!

Not long after, Beijing issued new regulations on real estate land use, "Notice on Strictly Strengthening Supervision of the Real Estate Industry", which included two very interesting provisions.

First, reiterate the principle of relative avoidance in the real estate industry!

Secondly, if you change the floor area ratio without authorization after acquiring the land, the land use rights will be revoked!
This policy, which was originally scheduled to be introduced ten years later, has been introduced now ahead of schedule. Of course, it will definitely be different from the future version, but generally speaking it tends to suppress housing prices.

Afterwards, the entire real estate industry was in an uproar. Although the first one had an impact on them, it was not a big problem.

However, the second regulation caused real estate developers in Beijing to wail.

That would be fine, but to make matters worse, the penalty for reclaiming land that has been hoarded for two years has made the real estate industry suffer even more misfortunes at this time!

As a result, the real estate market, which had already been on the rise, suddenly suffered from further setbacks. Of course, the second point was not a problem for Xu Zhisen, at least that's what he thought.

But the first one will cost lives, which means that if you want to increase the floor area ratio in the future, you will have to pay a greater price.

Xu Zhisen was very fortunate that he had asked Lu Yaxun for help and had resolved the issue of floor area ratio. As for future problems, they would deal with them later.

On the other side, Lin Hao carefully read the new regulations, then gently placed them on the table, smiled and said:

"Everything that happens has its own cause and effect, and I am your retribution!"

At the beginning, Lin Hao just took over Frankfurt Style, and then cooperated with Ye Yingxiong's Xintai. Because the project needed to be handed over, the construction site was stopped for two days.

At this time, the customers who had signed the contract and paid the money suddenly wanted to cancel the contract and refund the money. It was originally thought to be an isolated behavior, but it soon formed an abnormal trend.

Lin Hao felt something was wrong, so after some investigation, he immediately knew that Xu Zhisen was the one who was causing trouble, so he promoted the emergence of new regulations. On the other hand, for customers who wanted a refund, Lin Hao waved his hand and directly refunded the full amount of the pre-sold houses.

In the end, most of the houses were taken back. Only a dozen households did not return the house and get a refund, but that was no longer important.

If possible, Lin Hao hopes that they will all check out. After all, he will definitely not be the one who regrets it in the future!

······
After half a year of construction, all the work of Xintai Garden has been completed, and this is when Ye Yingxiong found Lin Hao.

"Boss Lin, the industry is in a downturn right now. How long will it take for our Xintai Garden to open for sale?"

Lin Hao smiled and said, "Boss Ye, are you short of money?"

Ye Yingxiong shrugged and said, "Although I'm not short of money, I still have a house on my hands, so I'm a little worried!"

Lin Hao poured Ye Yingxiong a cup of tea, and then said slowly:

"If we sell it now, let's not talk about whether it will sell well or not. Even if we sell it at the current price, we won't make much money. So why not wait for a good opportunity when we are not short of money!"

"Of course, if Mr. Ye is in a hurry to use the money, you can also transfer your half of the shares to me, and I will buy it out at the current price."

"No need!" Ye Yingxiong said quickly: "I completely believe in your vision, Mr. Lin, but I don't know how long I have to wait, so let me be prepared!"

He knew that Lin Hao not only had a good vision, but most importantly, he had a very strong network of connections. Since Lin Hao said that the time was not right, he might as well wait a little longer!
Seeing Ye Yingxiong was so sensible, Lin Hao did not answer directly, but reminded:
"Oh, I forgot to tell you something. Our Blue Sky Century City in Site 1 is about to start the second phase of construction!"

"If Mr. Ye believes me, we can start the second phase of Xintai Garden now, and the timing will be just right when it is completed!"

Ye Yingxiong's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood that Lin Hao was giving him time, which meant within a year!
To be honest, when Ye Yingxin followed Lin Hao to take over Frankfurt Style, he didn't think about making much money from the first phase of the project. His real goal was actually the remaining land and fame.

And now, listening to what Lin Hao said and the next actions, the first phase of the project would probably make a huge profit, so he followed Lin Hao without hesitation.

Looking at Lin Hao holding the newborn baby, Ye Yingxiong said with some envy:
"Boss Lin, you still have a way to make three women willingly give birth to your children!"

Then he joked: "But to be honest, your method is really very sexy!"

Lin Hao looked at the three children in the room, and his heart was filled with pride. After the nanny took the children back, Lin Hao also joked:

"This method is very simple, why don't you try it?"

Ye Yingxiong said happily:
"Hahaha! I don't need that. I'm already very old. I'm not as young as you!"

Afterwards, seeing that his goal had been achieved, he said goodbye. Lin Hao did not try to keep him as everyone’s time was precious.

After Ye Yingxiong left, Lin Hao picked up the telescope and looked at the construction site on the west side of Chaoyang Park, where construction was in full swing.

The high-end residential building that Lao Ding is in charge of has been built to the 9th floor, and the progress is quite encouraging.

As for the luxury housing area that Lin Hao is responsible for, it has been built to the third floor, and Lin Hao has also begun to draw the future decoration design drawings.

Lin Hao plans to personally design and decorate each house in the luxury residential area. By referring to a lot of decoration plans from later generations, he will create a unique luxury residential area.

As for this luxury residential area, Lin Hao did not plan to sell it directly, but would keep it in his hands. Anyway, he was not in a hurry at all.

Even for the residential building that the two Lao Dings are in charge of, Lin Hao has no plans to put it on the market except to resettle the local households who have been relocated. However, it will definitely be sold, but Lin Hao plans to hold on to it and sell it slowly.

Lin Hao's confidence in doing this comes from the real estate service chain he runs. He has been making a lot of money in the past few months, with tens of millions of dollars in revenue every month.

In terms of return rate, the real estate service chain is more profitable than simply developing real estate, and the risk is very low.

On the other hand, after this cold winter period, housing prices will soar, and housing prices will only get higher and higher. High-quality properties like this will not have trouble selling.

Therefore, when it comes to real estate development in the future, Lin Hao will tend to develop land with high value and good potential, while those with low value will be left to Milixiong and Fang Dezhao!
······
In the following six months, each family's plans were progressing steadily, and housing prices, which had been suppressed for a long time, finally began to pick up. No, it should be said that they began to rise visibly.

While Xu Zhisen was looking forward to the future and calculating how much money Utopia could make, something earth-shattering suddenly happened.

The roof of Utopia’s house had already been completed, but when they were preparing to apply for the pre-sale certificate, they were unable to get it. The reason was that Yuanda had arbitrarily added floors and changed the floor area ratio.

The Construction Bureau's Building Inspection Office and the Planning Bureau's Inspection Office issued a document, stating that the next step would be to verify the floor area ratio and then impose further penalties.

In fact, there is no need to verify. You can tell by looking at the building with your naked eyes that they increased the height of the original 26-story residential building to 32+1 floors. There are a total of 12 buildings in this batch of houses.

It is conceivable how serious the overcapacity of Yuanda Real Estate is, so they will face extremely severe penalties!
"We will not be able to apply for a pre-sale certificate for commercial housing (sales), nor will we be able to apply for a property certificate. In addition, because Yuanda has seriously exceeded the capacity, the land use rights will be revoked!"

When Xu Zhisen received the punishment documents, he was so angry that he spat out blood and was then sent to the hospital!

Now, the Utopian project of Yuanda is facing extremely serious problems. It has started construction of 12 residential buildings, which together exceed the capacity by 84 floors.

Yes, I’m too lazy to calculate it by area, so I’ll just calculate it by the number of floors.

This means that if the project is to be resumed, the excess part must be demolished, which is 84 floors.

It is not that easy to demolish the building. Yuanda spent so much time, manpower, material resources and financial resources to build it. Demolition would mean that all these investments would be wasted.

Demolishing the buildings that exceed capacity will cost a huge amount of money. It can be said that Yuanda is facing more losses this time, so serious that it may go bankrupt immediately.

When Lu Yaxun came to the hospital, Xu Zhisen sat up excitedly and shouted angrily:

"Lu Yaxun, what on earth do you want to do? Why didn't you change the plot ratio? Not only did you not change it, you even called me and told me that it was done!"

"You, why did you hurt me like this, bastard!"

However, Lu Yaxun looked at Xu Zhisen coldly as he went crazy. After Xu Zhisen finished speaking, Lu Yaxun said leisurely:
"Xu Zhisen, you know exactly what you did!"

As he said that, Lu Yaxun moved aside, revealing Lin Wanfen standing outside the door!

Afterwards, Lin Wanfen walked in from outside, but this time she looked pale, no longer as radiant as before!
Then Lin Wanfen burst into tears:

"Old Xu, Lu Yaxun already knows about our affairs, and we have already completed the divorce procedures!"
