After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 2282 Develop Real Estate

"It's not tiring since I drive anyway. Also, I grow different types of crops. If they are all planted together, there's always a risk of cross contamination," Qiao Mei said sternly.

Xia Wen did not understand these things. Since Qiao Mei said so, then he would just do as she said. It was very easy to rent land plots of about 100 mu each. As for the existing land plot of a few hundred mu, he would still keep it and set it aside for now. The rent they were paying was an internal rent that was very low and also on a completely different level from the market rent. It would be a pity to reject such a good deal. After all, it would not cost them much even if they just left it there.

"Eldest Brother, is it alright if we don't use that plot of land for farming but for something else?" Qiao Mei asked expectantly.

Xia Wen smiled resignedly. So this was what Qiao Mei had in mind! No wonder she kept asking if it could be cut up.

"You already have properties in various cities, so why do you still want to continue going into other businesses? Can you handle such a big portfolio?" Xia Wen said.

"I only put in the investment. I don't deal with the management part of the business. We just need to find a few more people like Qian'e," Qiao Mei said nonchalantly.

Xia Wen felt a headache coming on. When it came to people like Qian'e, who was very knowledgeable and also loyal to Qiao Mei, how many of such people could they find in this world? If these people should turn around to bite the finger which fed them, then not only would there be a loss of money, but he was more worried that Qiao Mei would be in danger.

Most of the Xia family members, regardless of gender, knew how to protect themselves. They were all sent to the army to learn martial arts techniques when they were young, but Qiao Mei was different. Although Qiao Mei had a lot of strength, she did not possess any combat skills. If she really encountered those really vicious criminals, she would get injured.

"Set aside a few months. I'll talk to Eldest Aunt and ask her to arrange for you to go to the army for training," Xia Wen said.

Qiao Mei looked at Xia Wen in shock and asked, "Eldest Brother, are you joking with me? Are you really going to send me to the army for training? I have bodyguards!"

"Your business is so big now. Plus, due to our family's special status, we can't ask for help from those people who are on the other side of the law. What if you encounter criminals one day? Instead of only relying on others, you should know how to protect yourself!" Xia Wen said seriously.

"I can wait for Xia Zhe to come back and teach me! Or I can get Xia He to teach me!" Qiao Mei said.

"Xia Zhe won't be back for a while. What if something happens during this period of time? Xia He's lousy martial arts skills are useless. She has long forgotten everything she learned after so many years of not following up on training. She can only handle those inexperienced criminals. You must go and train with Eldest Aunt. There's no room for discussion on this! Otherwise, I'll apply to the higher-ups to revoke your land use rights," Xia Wen said. freёnovelkiss.com

Qiao Mei was frozen in her seat. She definitely did not expect things to develop in this direction. Physical exercise was what she hated the most! Otherwise, she would not have kept investing in the development of machinery and automation and hired so many people in her businesses.

"Alright, I'll do as you say," Qiao Mei said aggrievedly.

"Eldest Aunt is very easy to talk to. Don't worry, we've all gone through this when we were young. You won't die from this," Xia Wen said with a smile.

Qiao Mei only felt as if she had just heard a demon whispering. Although Xia Xiu was a very nice person, Qiao Mei had never seen a smile on Xia Xiu's face! Not at all! She did not know how she was supposed to get along with Xia Xiu in the next few months.

"I can't do this during this period of time. We still have to settle the matter of the seed supply first," Qiao Mei said.

"Alright. You have to be careful for the time being. Although the Huang family has fallen on hard times, they used to have some dealings with the triads. I'm concerned that there are people who will be tempted to make a move. Those people won't care who we are," Xia Wen said.

"Got it! I definitely won't forget what you said!" Qiao Mei said as she made a vow. She felt that ever since Xia Wen became a father, he had become a lot naggy for some reason. It was as if… as if Xia Wen was treating her like his daughter.

He kept reminding her to be careful and was always worried that she would encounter difficulties or setbacks. She recalled that he had never been so careful in the past?

"I've marked out on the map those plots that I can rent for you. Where do you intend to set up your companies? What exactly do you want to do?" Xia Wen said.

Qiao Mei had already decided on the locations and quickly marked them out. Xia Wen sighed and said, "You're really not shy. These spots are where the government is focusing on for the country's future development. It seems like you've been eyeing these places for a long time."

"I want to go into real estate," Qiao Mei said firmly.

At the moment, her real estate business only involved experimental projects in the south and she did not have any involvement in the north yet. She was not optimistic about the profits coming from the south. Moreover, in order to really go into the real estate business, one needed to invest a lot of manpower, resources, connections and money. It was not something which ordinary people could do.

The one thing which Qiao Mei did not lack was money! This business was very suitable for her.
