In the next three days,Ye Chen tirelessly ran around to gather the necessary ingredients for the formulas.As a result, Li Changfeng and Zhang Jingshan, who tried to contact him repeatedly, were rejected.From running back and forth to buy the raw materials,To getting the pots, pans, and various utensils needed to make the ointment,Three days passed in the blink of an eye in Ye Chen's world.His small rental apartment had turned into a makeshift workshop.Luckily, the memories from his past life were as if they were etched in his mind.It also helped that he was a "semi-pro" scholar back in school.Ye Chen took a break from making the ointment.He removed his gloves,Sat down on the couch, and turned on the TV on the wall.On this very night in his past life, at the press conference held by the Jiangzhou government, the city's new development plans were announced, with the city party secretary leading the session, along with officials from several departments such as the Urban Planning Bureau, Land Bureau, Development and Reform Commission, and the Business Bureau.This press conference had led to the price of real estate in Jinlin Mansion skyrocketing by five times overnight, turning the surrounding area into a goldmine!At the exact moment Ye Chen opened the TV,The conference started on-screen,Exactly as he remembered it from his past life.First, the city party secretary gave a speech,Then various department heads made their remarks.The urban village renovation and commercial redevelopment were confirmed during this press conference!In an old house somewhere in Jiangzhou,It was the residence of the former city party secretary, Zhang Weimin, and also the Zhang family's ancestral home.Despite its worn and historic exterior, the yard was well-kept with plants arranged thoughtfully, and the inside had a tidy, peaceful atmosphere.Inside,The news conference on the TV was being watched by three generations of the Zhang family.Zhang Weimin, the former city party secretary; Zhang Xingguo, the chairman of Yong'an Construction Company; and Zhang Jingshan."Dad, the government plans to redevelop the urban village in the West City? Why is this happening so suddenly? Did you know about it before?" Zhang Xingguo asked in disbelief, staring at the TV."I knew!" Zhang Weimin nodded."What? You knew about this? Then why didn't you tell me?" Zhang Xingguo asked anxiously."Why would I tell you? Don't think I don't know what you're scheming. I, Zhang Weimin, have lived a clean life, dedicated to public service. Do you think that now in my old age, I would leak the government's plans to my son, so he could turn into a greedy capitalist and let the common people turn against me?" Zhang Weimin retorted angrily.Zhang Xingguo fell silent, knowing this was just the way his father operated.If Zhang Weimin had any private motives, his Yong'an Construction Company would have risen several levels by now.However, after the outburst, Zhang Weimin added, "It was Xiao Zhou who mentioned it when he came to visit me half a month ago. He asked for my thoughts and repeatedly emphasized that I must keep this matter confidential, saying that it was a pilot project by the province. Anyone who leaked it would not be tolerated. That's why, before today, everything seemed quiet. No one in the government dared to leak it."Xiao Zhou referred to the current party secretary of Jiangzhou.At the side, Zhang Jingshan, who usually enjoyed arguing with his father, was unusually quiet, lost in thought.The urban village to be redeveloped was right next to Jinlin Mansion!What did this mean?It meant that after this press conference, the price of Jinlin Mansion would skyrocket!In an instant,Ye Chen's words echoed in his mind."On the basis of fate, if you trust me, you can buy a few more units!""If I had money, I'd buy the entire development, but right now I only have 200,000, so I can only put down deposits for two units!""Trust me and try it!""You can go even crazier, like putting down deposits for ten units at once, or buying ten units outright, since there are no purchase limits!"At the time, Ye Chen hadn't taken these words seriously.Though he had also put down deposits for two units, he thought of it as money that was probably going to waste, as he didn't expect the price of Jinlin Mansion to rise anytime soon, and he wasn't planning to spend any more money on it.But now?How did Ye Chen know that this area was about to be redeveloped?Could it be that Zhang Xingguo, this old bastard, hadn't heard any whispers of the plan, but Ye Chen knew?How was that possible?"Grandpa, are you sure no one leaked this redevelopment plan before?" Zhang Jingshan quickly asked."Unless someone thinks their hat is too heavy!" Zhang Weimin replied without hesitation."Could it be that someone let something slip accidentally in some conversation?" Zhang Jingshan asked anxiously."If even such a sensitive issue could be leaked, do you think that person would be in the know?!" Zhang Weimin replied sharply.Suddenly, Zhang Weimin felt that something was off with Zhang Jingshan. "Jingshan, what do you mean by all these questions?""Grandpa, I... I put down deposits for two units in Jinlin Mansion. On the first day the development opened, someone told me that if I trusted him, I should buy more units. He even said that if he had money, he'd buy the entire Jinlin Mansion. Later, he suggested I could buy ten units outright!" Zhang Jingshan said in a dazed voice.At that moment, he wanted to slap himself across the face.If, if he had actually listened to Ye Chen's advice and bought ten units in one go,At that time, the price of Jinlin Mansion was only around 7,000-8,000 per unit, so buying ten units would have cost just over a million.With discounts, it would have cost around one million, which Zhang Jingshan could afford.Now, after this press conference, those ten units would be worth at least five to six million!In other words, in just three days, one million would have turned into five or six million!Three days, five to six times the profit! This was faster than robbing a bank!At this moment, regret was no longer enough to describe Zhang Jingshan's feelings.At the same time, his shock and curiosity about Ye Chen reached an indescribable state!First, the Buddha bead bracelet he found,Then his intuition about the "peach blossom disaster",Next, his sense that the price of Jinlin Mansion would skyrocket,And then his intuition that Li Changfeng's new car would get into an accident.All of these...Had come true.If all of this was just coincidence, could it be explained away?"What?!!!"However,As Zhang Jingshan's words fell,Both Zhang Weimin and Zhang Xingguo cried out in surprise at the same time.
