Chapter 3416: Chapter 3408: A New Task

Soon, the two of them drove to the empty lot.

Lin Yi remembered this place a bit; it was originally a large supermarket, but it went bankrupt due to poor management.

During the time he lived in Jiuzhou Pavilion, he had come here to shop.

The prices were quite high, but the quality was mediocre. He even anticipated that it would soon close down.

Although the supermarket had shut down, the building was still there. If we were to rent this land, it would require extensive renovations.

At this moment, the system prompt sounded in Lin Yi’s mind.

[System Task: Complete the planning work for the expansion of the 4S store, reward: 200,000 master level driving skills.]

Seeing the system task, Lin Yi muttered to himself.

"What does planning work for the expansion mean?"

[Please explore on your own, host.]

Damn thing, acting more and more pretentious.

"I think the place isn’t small, what about you?" Chen Lin said:

"We can reserve a place for modifications and create a second-hand car sales area, aiming to become the largest 4S store in the city."

"If you do that, the Seaside Road 4S store might not agree and could even secretly sabotage us."

"That’s not my fault. Our shipment volume is the highest during this period, so I naturally have the right to make demands." Chen Lin said matter-of-factly:

"Besides, everyone is out here to make money, so I don’t need to give face to anyone."

"President Chen, so powerful and domineering. From now on, you eat meat, and I’ll drink soup."

"No way, your conditions are definitely better than mine. If you dare to hang out with me, your living standard will decrease."

"No problem, love the job you’re in, the main thing is having a decent job."

"Your mouth is really more talkative than anyone else’s."

Chen Lin tidied her clothes.

"Come with me to take a look."

"Can you manage in high heels?"

"Don’t worry, running won’t be a problem."

"Let’s go."

Screech—

Just then, a BMW 5 series parked not far away.

A man and a woman stepped out of the car, about the same age as Lin Yi and Chen Lin, both wearing work uniforms.

After getting out, the two groups exchanged a glance, but it was just a look.

"Let’s go."

Chen Lin didn’t pay much attention to them and was ready to take Lin Yi inside for a look.

The two of them walked toward other places to get a detailed understanding of the surrounding environment.

"Those two people seem to be from Rolls-Royce."

"Hmm?"

Chen Lin looked at Lin Yi, "How do you know?"

"They have name tags on their chests, I saw them."

"Your eyesight is really good," Chen Lin muttered, "but what are they doing here?"

"Could it be that they’re interested in this land too?" Lin Yi had a bad premonition.

Under normal circumstances, if you fancy a piece of land, you rent it, renovate it step by step, and the matter is settled without unexpected incidents.

But the appearance of the system task suggests a side issue.

The expansion plan may not go so smoothly.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a task, and it wouldn’t offer 200,000 master level driving skills.

"It couldn’t be such a coincidence, could it?"

"This kind of thing is hard to say; this is a wealthy area, which suits their class and positioning."

"Don’t rush to conclusions, let’s see the situation first. The exact actions depend on headquarters’ operations."

Lin Yi nodded, "But this land is indeed quite good. It would be a pity to let others have it."

Lin Yi pondered quietly.

The so-called planning work for expansion should involve this land.

Because the expansion work is imperative, without specific requirements, this task would have no difficulty, and might not even need him to manage it.

Considering these factors, the problem is likely here.

This land must be secured and taken over for expansion.

After about twenty minutes of wandering, Chen Lin got to know the surroundings well and took plenty of photos.

Preparing to stroll around nearby to understand the surroundings before heading back.

As the two of them turned from one side of the supermarket to the parking lot, they happened to overhear someone talking.

"This place is not bad. Buying it to build a new store can elevate our class."

"When we got out of the car, we saw two people. I’ve seen that man’s livestream; he’s an Audi salesman. Are they here to rent this land too?"

"It’s hard to say, it shouldn’t be very likely, right."

"But we have to guard against it. Not only the 4S store but other industries too are eyeing this land; the competition is fierce."

"Let’s see the situation first. Maybe it’s not what you think."

At this point, the two groups bumped into each other face-to-face.

Both had awkward expressions on their faces but didn’t say anything, just passing by.

As the distance gradually widened, Lin Yi said with a smile:

"I was right. It seems they also want to buy this land for expansion."

"This makes it a bit tricky." Chen Lin said:

"They are a brand under BMW. After that incident, the relationships between both sides aren’t exactly cordial, so I expect they’ll compete with us."

"For them, it’s not a big deal. Didn’t you say other industries are also interested in this land? There are many potential competitors, not just them."

"We need to report this to the district and let them decide on specific actions; we’re feeling a bit powerless here."

Lin Yi nodded, but the pressure shifted to him.

If competition is too fierce, the district might not insist on fighting.

He must stir the situation a bit himself.

"Let’s go, we’ve got a pretty good understanding of the situation here, let’s check the surrounding area."

"Hmm."

The two got into the car and drove aimlessly around, trying to understand the nearby environment.

"Do you see those villas over there?"

Following the direction Chen Lin pointed, Lin Yi saw Jiuzhou Pavilion.

"What about it?"

"That’s the most expensive property in Zhong Hai. Heard that the cheapest is nearly a billion."

"It’s actually not as good as you imagine."

"What do you mean?"

"The house is too big, and it feels empty living alone," Lin Yi said:

"For a man it’s okay, but if it’s a woman, living alone would definitely be scary."

"Is that an attempt to make yourself feel better?" Chen Lin laughed and said:

"With houses like that, even if we work hard in our next life, we might not be able to afford them."

"Normally, that should be the case."

Chen Lin supported her head with one hand, gazing at Jiuzhou Pavilion.

"When I was in junior high, I considered the idea, hoping to become a wealthy wife or a strong independent woman, buying a castle-like house. Thinking about it now, the dream was a bit big."

"Though it’s unrealistic, there are other ways to realize it."

"How would you realize it? You’re not suggesting I be a mistress, are you?"

Chen Lin said:

"The bosses who can afford houses here probably wouldn’t consider me as a mistress."

"Mainly because your outfit is too plain, you don’t even wear black stockings. What boss would notice you?"
