Chapter 1753 - First Bucket Of Gold

"Huh?" Lu Yuan scratched his head with a puzzled expression. "It couldn't be. I don't remember them being so rich in the past. Could you be mistaken?"

"How could I be mistaken? We only had one Qin family here," Granny Chen pursed her lips and was unhappy. "Although I'm old, I don't have dementia. I remembered it very clearly!"

"Oh really? If there's only one Qin family, then they must be my relatives," Lu Yuan grinned. "When did they get rich? How come I didn't know about it?"

"You didn't know?" Granny Chen looked at him suspiciously. "Didn't you say you were looking for your relatives? How could you not know?"

Lu Yuan smiled bitterly and replied, "The poor are ignored in the busiest city; the rich will find relatives in the deepest mountain. If I wasn't poor, how could I not know their contact details?"

Granny Chen felt that she had been told the truth. She slapped her thigh and said, "The Qin family is not being kind. How could they care about their wealth and ignore their relatives? Don't worry, I'll get my grandson to find the Qin family's contact information for you online."

Lu Yuan quickly stopped her and said, "Granny Chen, there's no need. I can look it up on the internet myself."

He sat down on the bed and said to himself, "... They're so rich? I didn't expect it to be them."

"Of course you can't see them. Old Man Qin doesn't like to be on TV, and the people of the Qin family don't like to be in the limelight. If you haven't seen them, you probably couldn't imagine it," Granny Chen felt that she could understand this person's feelings.

Lu Yuan lowered his head and let out a long sigh. He said, "Back then, my grandfather and the grandfather of the Qin family left home with our family. Our family went to the north to explore, and they went to the south."

"I didn't expect that after so many years, they would be so much stronger than us."

Granny Chen nodded repeatedly, "That's right... Look at you, I think you can't even afford to eat anymore. and the Qin family became one of the richest families in our country! Not only did they open a hospital, they even established an orphanage!"

Lu Yuan put on an embarra.s.sed look and muttered, "... Back then, their family was just like ours, they were all b.u.mpkins. How did they manage to open a private hospital? I heard that opening a hospital is very expensive! Where did they get the capital?"

Capital. This was the direction that Lu Yuan had just thought of to investigate.

Just like Gu Nianzhi, he couldn't find anything wrong with the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital and the Qin Orphanage. However, he felt that something was wrong.

He had just spoken to Huo Shaoheng on the phone and he mentioned that Gu Nianzhi had revealed the secret of Wen Shouyi's background in court. It was then that he had a sudden realization.

If he couldn't find anything wrong with the current Qin Corporation's Private Hospital and the Qin Orphanage, he should investigate their origins.

The current Qin Corporation's Private Hospital was already a well-known public company locally and abroad. Whatever needed to be cleaned up would have been done long ago.

If there was a loophole, the big shots in the stock market who liked to sell short would have taught the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital a lesson long ago.

Therefore, there was still a problem with the direction of his previous investigation. Fortunately, he had adjusted it in time.

Of course, he would only have a say in this conclusion after his investigation.

After listening to him, Granny Chen clicked her tongue and said, "They were destined to be rich!"

She raised her hand and pointed in the direction to the south, "Over there, who knew it would be circled as a special district? Later on, the higher-ups gave the order, and their family immediately became rich!"

"Huh? What you meant was... The family had their land?! How come I didn't know? I have never heard my grandfather mention it!" Lu Yuan pretended to be surprised and asked carefully.

The official website of the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital had written about the Qin group's rich experience.

Lu Yuan knew that their first bucket of gold came from the land.

The Qin family had a piece of land in Z city. It was originally in a relatively remote area, but the higher-ups gave the order to include the land in the special district, immediately making it worth a hundred times more.

The old master of the Qin family, Qin Baye, was a very courageous and discerning person.

He used this piece of land as collateral and borrowed a huge amount of money from the bank to establish the first private hospital in the country.

Previously, Lu Yuan did not pay much attention to this portion, but now that he thought about it, there were some problems.

The Qin family was previously poor and could make a fortune. Qin Baye, the Old Master Qin, was the first generation. The Huaxia Empire was founded after the country began to develop its economy. It was not a large family with a deep background.

How could such a family have their private land in Z City?!

Granny Chen pursed her lips and said disapprovingly, "Old Man Qin was capable. There was no news at that time, and he just h.o.a.rded a piece of land. I heard that..."

Granny Chen frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "... This is strange. There had been quite a few people who came to ask about the Qin family's prosperity in the past few days. You're not with them, are you?"

Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, but there was still a blank look on his face, "What do you mean, Granny Chen? If I had a helper, would I have to come to this place by myself?"

He looked around the "single room" helplessly and smiled bitterly.

Lu Yuan's appearance made Granny Chen lowered her guard slightly. She waved her hand and said indifferently, "Actually, it was okay to ask. I'm not lying. I was telling the truth. I had nothing to be afraid of."

"Yes, yes, yes! Granny Chen, you look like a good person. I was really lucky to you!" Lu Yuan looked at Granny Chen gratefully.

Granny Chen was flattered by him and could not help but say more. She had not even told the people who had come to inquire about this a few days ago.

"... Let me tell you how the Qin family was able to make a fortune. I heard that they once looked for an expert to read their fortune and said that their eldest daughter had a good life and could prosper the family. Look, isn't that already true?! The eldest daughter of the Qin family might be doing it now. I heard that she's a great doctor and also a great scientist! I'm not convinced by Old Man Qin at all, but his eldest daughter, I'm convinced!"

As she spoke, Granny Chen took out her phone and showed it to Lu Yuan. "Look, this is the eldest daughter of the Qin family. She was very capable!"

Granny Chen showed Lu Yuan a photo of Qin Yaoguang wearing a green mask and a white lab coat. She was experimenting.

Lu Yuan pointed at the photo and made a dumbfounded expression, "... This is the eldest lady of the Qin family?! I thought she had the same name as my relative's daughter! So she's my relative's daughter!"

"Hahahaha... You're muddle-headed!" Granny Chen laughed so hard that she staggered back and forth. She seemed to be in a good mood.

She was getting on in years. Once she opened her mouth, she could not stop.

She nagged, "I heard from my husband that Old Man Qin had his eyes on that piece of land, but he did not sell it at first. Later, he went to read his fortune and said that his eldest daughter would bring prosperity to the family, so he brought his daughter to C city to talk to someone. Finally, the talk was successful and he bought that piece of land."

Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, "The original owner of that piece of land was from C City?"

"That's right. I heard that it used to be a big family, but I heard that the other members of that big family went abroad in the early years, and only their family stayed behind. You know what happened after that... Sigh, why did they sell the land? It was such a good place, even if it wasn't encircled by the special district, it was still land! It's worth too much money..."

Lu Yuan nodded without batting an eyelid, "I also think that the Qin family was quite lucky. Even if they were willing to sell, they would need to have the money to buy it... No matter how cheap it was, they won't give it away for free, right?"

Granny Chen was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said, "Oh right, where did Old Man Qin get the money to buy the land?"

Their attention was drawn to the Qin family's low-priced land h.o.a.rding and then the soaring land prices.

But after careful consideration, they knew that this "land h.o.a.rding at a low price" was untenable.

No matter which era it was, the land was a scarce resource.

The so-called "land h.o.a.rding at a low price" was also relative to the current era.

Under the price conditions at that time, 10,000 dollars was equivalent to the purchasing power of 1 million dollars now.

So the question returned to the original point. Where did the Qin family get the initial funds to buy land from the start?

Lu Yuan recalled the history of Qin Baye's family on the official website and asked, "I heard that Qin Baye used to run an orphanage?"

"Yes, his family's orphanage was opened at the same time as our hotel for almost a hundred years. He was loyal and had a bunch of brothers under him," Granny Chen pouted again. "It was a pity that my husband was not as smart as him. He became the boss of a big company and our family is still guarding this small hotel."

Lu Yuan had an idea.

He exchanged a few more pleasantries with Granny Chen and yawned appropriately.

Granny Chen quickly said, "Look at me, I couldn't stop talking. It's already very late. Go to sleep, go to sleep!"

After Granny Chen left, Lu Yuan climbed onto the bed, closed the door, and began texting Huo Shaoheng.

"Find out who bought the land in Z city from the Qin family."

Huo Shaoheng was still awake when he heard his phone vibrate on the bedside table again. He casually swiped it open.

When he saw the text message, he immediately sat up from the bed.

The Qin family's land in Z City?

It should be the real headquarters of the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital, right?!
