It would be a few days before Little Ze's grandparents came back. Just when Su Qinglan thought that most of the things were taken care of, some people started to make trouble again.

"Acting President Su, the company is not in the same state as when President Gu was in charge. In a situation of financial distress, you secretly made a decision and bought the land in such a remote area. Aren't you looking down on our board of directors?"

At the regular meeting, this question immediately got support from some people who were usually dissatisfied with her.

They were all old shareholders of Gu Corporation. In the past, when they saw that Su Qinglan was beautiful and had an excellent working ability, and with Gu Jinchi's protection, they could take care of her.

However, the situation was different now. This woman was their boss now. A small assistant had become the president who managed them. How could some people who were old enough to be Su Qinglan's father swallow this down?

They were stubborn and would not let go of any opportunity to make Su Qinglan feel embarrassed.

Su Qinglan twirled the pen in her hand and chuckled.

They had reasons to be dissatisfied with her. After all, she had some doubts about her ability even when she took over the company.

Not to mention that she directly controlled the company and left the elders behind. Who could allow her, a usurper, to command and manipulate them?

But she couldn't tell anyone about the land.

Even if she told them, they might not believe it. This matter was related to something significant. There was something that could only be done without saying anything.

However, they made a big fuss about it.

It was just three hundred million, but the value would be immeasurable.

"If you think so, then I have nothing to say. I don't know who else thinks I shouldn't do this now. I hope you can vote together."

She raised her head and looked around at everyone present, there were nine people with power on the board of directors, and as long as five people did not agree, she could not purchase the land.

Based on their usual attitude, she was not very confident. Among them, at least four people disliked her. The others were all wily and sophisticated old guys. They were extremely shrewd.

Seeing that six people raised their hands, she felt upset. Did they know that they were going to give up a very important business district in the future? This was a great loss for the Gu Corporation.

"Did you see that? We have been in this position for half our lives. We have never made any wrong decisions. You are young. If you don't listen to the old people, you will suffer." Although Qi Dong was speaking in a lecturing tone, his expression was beaming with joy. He meant to show off.

Su Qinglan looked at him and could not help but grit her teeth. However, giving up was not her style.

"I understand, but I hope that all of you can put down your hands and listen to me. If you still think that I am unreasonable, I have nothing to say." She still had to fight for it. Even if not for Gu Corporation, she had to fight for Gu Jinchi.

She represented Gu Jinchi's opinion.

"Miss Su, even if President Gu was the one who personally instructed on this matter, he has to explain." Qi Dong still went against her, quietly waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

Su Qinglan's face fell. He was forcing her to admit that she could not make it and could only rely on men.

"Director Qi wants a reason. I was just about to say it. Don't worry." She let out a long breath, sorted out her thoughts, and told him the reason for her actions.

"The new development zone is currently being selected and has yet to be uncovered. However, the location of this land is also one of the options. I have no way of deciding the location of the development zone. However, I hope that everyone can take a look at this."

She turned on the projector, and three reserve areas were presented on the screen.

"First of all, everyone knows that to the north is the old city area. There are many nail houses there. If we want to take this land, who knows how much extra compensation we will have to pay? A few years ago, demolition encountered great difficulties, and there were headlines about people being beaten. In terms of funds, it is not worth it."

Seeing that her analysis made sense, a few people's solemn expressions also relaxed a little, as if they had put down their guard and were willing to listen to her.

"Looking at the west coast of the city, it is true that the tourism industry is developing well there, but it is also because of this that they will not choose this area to develop since it is already prosperous. I do not need to explain this in detail. I think everyone understands."

"The last remaining area is the area south of Yun City. The reason why no one thinks highly of it is that this place is too desolate. Yun City's development zones are all in the north, not in the south."

These findings came after her careful thinking. Some of them could be discovered as long as one was careful.

Some people would rather believe that they would choose to continue developing the north area and tear down nail houses than believe that they would develop areas that were easier in the south of the city.

Qi Dong was one of them. When he heard this, he still smiled contemptuously. "We all know this. I wonder what you are trying to express by saying this?"

"I want to say that it must be in the south. Even if we take a step back, they chose an old city area that is more difficult to develop. The land is mostly surrounded by residential areas and schools. Even if it does not become a commercial street, it would still be a profitable business."

They knew what she said was reasonable. They just wanted to go against her.

What could a bunch of old-fashioned people do? They just don't want you to have a good day.

After saying so much, Su Qinglan felt that her throat was about to smoke. "So, I hope that everyone can reconsider whether you want to buy this land or not."

After a series of whispers, the trickiest person was still Qi Dong. "I'm sorry, President Su. In the property industry, you either make money or lose money. You can't convince me."

The people who followed Qi Dong became four, but they were still on par.

"If you are really so persistent, why don't you wait for President Gu to come back? We can still wait." After saying that arrogantly, Qi Dong was about to leave when the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open.

The two people who came in one after the other stunned everyone present. Then, they stood up uniformly and said, "President Gu."

Su Qinglan was also stunned. Her mind went blank for a while. The one who walked in was Little Ze's grandparents. The grandmother was smiling, while the grandfather was acting stiff and serious.

Shouldn't they return in a few days?

"Sit down. Aren't we in a meeting? Leave us alone." Mr. Gu held Mrs. Gu's hand and sat down on the sofa with a loving and harmonious look.

Qi Dong's attitude towards Mr. and Mrs. Gu was much softer. He even said humbly with a smile, "It's just over. If there's nothing else, we'll leave first."

She was afraid that it would be late when Gu Jinchi returned because the new development zone was about to be released, she was still unwilling to give up. But given her situation, there was nothing she could do.

Taking a deep breath, she could only choose to close the document. "I hope that everyone can still reconsider it. It is going to be released soon. If we miss this opportunity, there will be no next time."

"I've already told you about this. You don't have enough experience. Why don't we wait until Little President Gu comes back?" Qi Dong turned around and said carelessly.

Mrs. Gu said surprisingly, "Jinchi is busy right now. I wonder if we have enough experience?"

Qi Dong was stunned for a moment and replied with a ridicule smile, "Of course, you don't have to take it to heart. It's just that she has wanted to buy a piece of land, but according to the experience of us old people, it would be a loss to buy it. At this critical point, it's better to maintain the status quo."

"But I think Qinglan is right." Mrs. Gu was a smart person. She understood what was going on from the awkward atmosphere in the conference room and the helpless look of Su Qinglan.

What's more, they had overheard something when they were outside just now.

"Well..." Qi Dong's smile froze on his face. He had never expected that Su Qinglan's mother-in-law would support her so much.

"Qinglan, show me your plan. Although I haven't been in this field for a long time, I'm not an outsider. It doesn't matter if I look at it." Mrs. Gu said to her kindly.

Understanding the intention behind Mrs. Gu's help, Su Qinglan could not help but feel warm. She hurriedly handed over the proposal. "I just feel that this piece of land might have a bright future. Please take a look."

No one expected Mr. and Mrs. Gu to interfere at this time. Almost everyone was holding their breath and waiting for Mrs. Gu to take a stand.

"I think that Qinglan is right to think this way. Take a look," Mrs. Gu said as she handed over the planning to Mr. Gu.

Qi Dong was embarrassed by her lightly-said words. "Madam, Little President Gu is not here. If we do this rashly, we will lose."

"Lose?" Mrs. Gu glanced at him and then looked at Su Qinglan. She obviously treated them differently. "How much is the price of this land?"

"Three hundred million," Su Qinglan replied.

Mrs. Gu suddenly smiled. "I thought it would be a huge number. It's just three hundred. We won't lose a fortune. How about this, Qinglan? Since you like it, buy it in the name of the Gu Family."

"Even if it won't be in the development zone, we will invest in building a children's amusement park. We won't let Little Ze be too bored."

Because a piece of land was useless, it was directly made into an amusement park for his grandson. Only Gu Family could make such a big investment.

Qi Dong broke out in a cold sweat. He never expected that they would come at this time, nor did he expect this mother-in-law to spoil her daughter-in-law so much.

But she had given birth to a son, the future successor, whom she relied on.

"As for you, you haven't changed after so many years. Jinchi is busy and Qinglan has just taken over. You don't have to make things difficult for her." Mrs. Gu then stood up and walked out of the conference room, holding Su Qinglan's hand.
