Chapter 600: Mr. Shu's Toast

They stood up to toast. It was such a great honor that Lu Ye and others also stood up from their seats.

"Grandpa, you are too kind. We don't deserve it." Lu Ye said hurriedly.

"If you hadn't come to her rescue in Yangcheng, Wenwen would have been targeted by a villain. And in Mulan County, you were bitten by a venomous snake while trying to save Wenwen. If you hadn't been treated in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"With such kindness, a mere glass of wine from this old man is not enough to express my gratitude."

Old Master Shu looked back at Shu Tianqi and Shu Wen, who were also holding up their wine glasses with him.

"Through today's banquet, three generations of the Shu family would like to formally express our gratitude to you all!"

"Please drink this cup to its full!" Old Master Shu said in a loud voice.

Seeing this, Lu Ye felt too embarrassed to continue refusing, so he immediately held the wine glass with both hands and drank all the red wine in the glass in one breath.

Su Yunjie and Su Mengyao also followed Lu Ye's example and drank the red wine in their glasses.

The guests drank first, and then Mr. Shu, Shu Tianqi and Shu Wen followed closely and drank all the red wine they had been holding for a long time.

As this glass of wine was drunk, the banquet officially began.

Mr. Shu put down his wine glass, very happy.

"Everyone, please don't be polite and have your meal." Old Master Shu greeted Lu Ye and the others.

hey-hey...

After drinking a glass of wine, Su Yunjie gradually relaxed, picked up the chopsticks and started eating with big mouthfuls.

The fragrant and crispy roast suckling pig, dipped in a little white sugar, made Su Yunjie so happy as soon as he took a bite.

"Well, it's delicious!" Su Yunjie said happily.

"Eat more if you like it." Old Master Shu said to Su Yunjie with a smile on his face.

"Haha... Don't worry, old man. I will definitely not pretend when it comes to eating." Su Yunjie said casually.

"I like your straightforward personality. Eat as much as you want. There's plenty in the kitchen." Grandpa Shu said with a smile.

The initially tense atmosphere at the dinner table gradually relaxed after a few drinks.

Lu Ye savored the food in front of him.

I have to say that the Shu family’s chef is indeed a master chef. The dishes on this table are really impeccable.

Every dish is so delicious that you'll want to have a second bite after taking one.

During the meal, Shu Tianqi suddenly asked:

"Xiao Lu, I heard from Wenwen that you've been investing in stocks recently and are very optimistic about the real estate industry in Hong Kong."

"In fact, in the past two years, Hong Kong's real estate industry has indeed been booming and very dynamic."

"In fact, I am also optimistic about the future development of real estate, but I have been undecided about whether to acquire a real estate company and acquire some land to try this field."

Li Chaoren is doing very well in the real estate industry in Hong Kong.

Several other major families also entered the real estate industry.

This made Shu Tianqi somewhat tempted.

The real estate industry has huge profits, and Shu Tianqi also wants to get a piece of the pie.

However, the Shu family had never been involved in the real estate sector and had no experience in this area. Even the Binjiang shantytown renovation project was only a nominal bid, and all the construction was outsourced to the Binjiang Second Construction Company.

Apart from paying money, the Shu Group doesn't worry about anything else, so naturally they have no experience at all.

It is precisely because of this that Shu Tianqi has been wavering.

Faced with this question, Lu Ye pondered for a moment.

Then he slowly said, "There are already many real estate companies in Hong Kong. Changjiang Industrial is one of the earliest companies to enter this field. Li Chaoren has also made a lot of money from this."

"This oil crisis has also made the remaining four major families realize that their shipping businesses, which they once prided themselves on, can no longer generate profits for them and could even potentially drag them into dire straits."

"Therefore, finding new alternative industries is the most pressing issue facing those shipping tycoon families."

"I think they will most likely turn their attention to the real estate industry."

"Capital in Hong Kong is relatively concentrated. Once these major families enter the market, the real estate industry will inevitably usher in a fierce battle."

"If the Shu family also chooses to enter the market at this time, I don't think it would be a wise choice."

"After all, the Shu family's foundation is food, and food is the primary need of the people. As long as the Shu family can firmly control the market share of grain and oil imports and exports in Hong Kong, the Shu family will remain invincible."

"There is absolutely no need to waste energy on Hong Kong's real estate industry."

Lu Ye carefully analyzed the current situation of Hong Kong real estate to Shu Tianqi and answered Shu Tianqi's question positively, not recommending that the Shu family enter the real estate industry.

After all, the cost of entering this field at this time is too high.

In order to break into the real estate sector, the shipping magnate Pao family set their sights on Hutchison Whampoa, which owned a large amount of high-quality land. As a result, they suffered a direct loss of 6 million yuan!

If this is the case for the four major families, if the Shu family wants to get involved, they will inevitably be targeted and expelled by other real estate companies.

By then, the Shu family would be missing the point.

Shu Tianqi chewed over Lu Ye's words carefully.

"So, do you think that someone from the four major families will also enter the real estate sector in a big way?" Shu Tianqi asked.

"It's not that anyone will, but besides Li Chaoren who is already present, the other three of the four major families will all enter the market, and they will definitely spare no effort to gain a firm foothold in this field."

"The reason is simple: they have no choice."

Lu Ye said with certainty.

Mr. Shu listened quietly to Lu Ye's analysis. Today was his first meeting with Lu Ye.

My previous understanding of Lu Ye was limited to the descriptions of him by Shu Wen and Shu Tianqi.

But now, Lu Ye's eloquent manner gave Mr. Shu a clearer understanding of Lu Ye.

Sure enough, the young man was just as his son said.

He is smart, far-sighted, calm, and most importantly, he has a very forward-looking perspective when looking at problems.

Such people are top talents!

Plus saving Shu Wen twice.

It's no wonder that his precious granddaughter is still in love with this young man even though he knows that he is married.

Since ancient times, beauties have loved heroes. At this moment, Mr. Shu seemed to understand Shu Wen a little bit.

"Are you saying that the other three companies will also plunge into the real estate sector? If that's the case, then it really wouldn't make sense for us at Shu's to get in on the action."

Although the Shu family is not bad, there is still some gap between them and the top four families, whether in terms of resource network or financial background.

If facing the competition from the four major families, Shu Tianqi would not be confident at all.

As for what he said at the beginning about getting two pieces of land to test the waters, it was just a description. If it was really just a small-scale thing like that, what would it mean to the Shu family?
