Along the way, Gao Lin told Qiao Mei about what the Gao family used to do on the surrounding land, pointed out the a.s.sets which used to belong to the Gao family and told her about what he remembered of this area. Back then, he had to walk down this road to go to and from school. Gao Tao liked to walk with him and they had a lot of fun together.

Once they reached the hotel, Qiao Mei gave Xia Wen a call immediately. She wanted to know who had ownership of these a.s.sets in Hu City as soon as possible.

“Eldest Brother, have you found out everything we need?” Qiao Mei asked anxiously.

“The situation is very complicated. If you want to get back these a.s.sets, I’m afraid you’ll need to spend a lot of money. Some of the a.s.sets belong to the government and some are in private hands. Either way, you have to be prepared that you might not be able to get everything back,” Xia Wen said.

“Yes, we understand. Eldest Brother, who owns the Gao family’s old house now?” Qiao Mei asked.

“It seems to be in the hands of a person named Gao Hai. You can go to that area and ask around. He probably lives there,” Xia Wen said.

Earlier in the day, Gao Hai had told them that the house was owned by the government, but now she was being told that it belonged to him. It seemed that there was something very fishy with this Gao Hai.

“Eldest Brother, if we want to buy a house from a private owner, is there anything we need to pay special attention to?” Qiao Mei asked.

“It all depends on whether the owner is willing to sell it. There’s nothing particularly important. After all, that house belongs to them. It’s just that it has been rented out and the tenants there are quite difficult to deal with. Even if you manage to buy the house, it will be a very difficult task to get rid of those tenants,” Xia Wen said.

“Yes, I’ve taken notes. Thank you, Eldest Brother,” Qiao Mei said.

“Do you need me to get someone to help you arrange an appointment to

discuss the purchase?” Xia Wen asked.

“There’s no need, Eldest Brother. I’ll think of a way myself,” Qiao Mei said.

“Alright, be careful then. Call me if you need anything.” Xia Wen hung up after saying that.

Qiao Mei told Gao Lin everything she found out. Gao Lin said, “Those people will be homeless if we chase them out. I only want this house as a keepsake. Most of the Gao family’s businesses are overseas now and it will take some time for us if we want to return to this country. I want to buy that house so that I can give it to you.”

“Actually, there’s another way for us to do this,” Qiao Mei said.

“What other way?” Gao Lin asked curiously.

Qiao Mei intended to set up a real estate company in Hu City. When the time was right, she could buy land to construct a building and then sell it off at a high price. This was a sure-win business, just that the registration process was very troublesome and she would have to deal with a lot of formalities.

She could put Deng Fan in charge of this company. After all, Deng Fan had his own architecture style and any property he designed would definitely be able to sell well.

After that, Qiao Mei could slowly buy back the Gao familys a.s.sets in the course of business. It would definitely be much cheaper than going out to buy the a.s.sets upfront now, just that it would take a longer time.

“I’ll leave these things to you. You can just tell Gao Ming how much the expenses are and ask him to reimburse you,” Gao Lin said.

“It’s fine, I can still afford this bit of money. I still need Brother Gao Ming to help me with my business overseas. We’re all family, so there’s no need to be so calculative,” Qiao Mei said.

“It’s precisely because we’re a family that we have to do the accounts clearly,” Gao Lin said firmly.

“Alright, then I’ll do what you say. When the time comes, I’ll ask for reimburs.e.m.e.nt item by item! Not one item less!” Qiao Mei said playfully.

“Your Brother Gao Ming has plenty of money! There’s no need to stand on ceremony with him!” Gao Lin said with a smile.

It was because of Qiao Mei’s help that the Gao family had done very well and for their company to become one of the top companies in Sky City within two years. They had set up many subsidiary companies in Country M and increased their a.s.sets to the extent that they were now comparable to Xia Zhe’s company. Xia Zhe had also invested a lot of money in Gao Ming. The two of them had started off as compet.i.tors, but now they had gradually become business partners who trusted each other.

“Granduncle, how many relatives did we leave behind back then? Why are all these a.s.sets in the hands of other people?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“Back then, we had many relatives, more than 10 families! There are at least four families in the direct descendant lineage, so why is Gao Hai’s family the only one left in Hu City?” Gao Lin was also very curious about this..
