Chapter 1173 - Expansion Of The Tree Mall

Once the interior designers had done their job in agreeing with the office managements, Jin would then proceed to create as what they had desired. This eliminated Jin as the middleman, allowing him to create the end product without too much hassle. He even made it so that once the interior designers were done creating the layout, there can never be any further changes unless it affects the office that would be detrimental to their workers. Else, any changes would be charged as a second makeover.

It reduced the time needed for Jin to get those office themes up since the System was able to replicate what the designers had already envisioned. And it was a win win for Jin, the middleman and the offices. Because of Jin’s sudden openness to allow companies to work in the tree mall, MNCs had started applying as well and Jin ’believed’ that they wanted to tap into the potential of the various small and medium enterprises as well as the service sectors in the Tree Mall.

This was because Jin allowed those major multinational companies to enter into his Tree Mall on one condition, they had to aid the small and medium enterprises within the Tree Mall to grow as well. Not by giving them a lump sum of money but a sub contract or else, the rental on those spaces would be significantly higher than the usual.

He had also revealed to each of the MNC representatives that he was the new upcoming leader of the Royal Zodiac Panda Clan and by having a foothold in the Tree Mall meant that they understood the consequences of that particular branch to be part of the Panda Clan’s property. Most if not all were shocked to hear this and while most of them needed more time to discuss, a couple quickly acknowledged. This was because the companies had heard rumours that the Dungeons and Pandas store owner had invested a huge sum of money in JODE.

Not just that, JODE was well recognised to be something akin to a private military organisation despite their mission to serve the people in ridding the demons and their outward ’neutral’ allegiance to no one had always been used as a strong political statement. However, everyone in their higher hierarchy knew that they would serve whoever was paying them the most.

Initially, most spectators thought Dungeons and Pandas paid them because of the new upcoming JODE academy which they had announced but when the MNC representatives realised that Jin was their newest biggest benefactor because of his status as the Panda Lord, they immediately knew that he has strong enough of a backing to lean on. Thus, those MNCs had decided to place a branch in his Tree Mall.

One of them even decided to move their central headquarters into Jin’s Tree Mall and it was none other than Hua Wee. The nearby factory campus had created enough buzz about the Tree Mall that the management decided to place the headquarters in Jin’s business building because of the confidence from their employees.

It was also a perfect move since they had been wanting to push their headquarters closer to their main production campus for some time but never had the chance to do so. Now that the management had decided to put the new headquarters in Jin’s Tree Mall, the ripple effect of this major move had drastically increased the land value around the Tree Mall.

However, the Panda Lord was ahead of any other property investors. Because of his newly minted status as the Panda Lord, he had been in talks with Shenzhen’s mayor as well as the land owners within his Tree Mall’s vicinity. One could say that he managed to flex his wealth and status to bargain for the surrounding lands in a hush hush meeting. However, the MVP was not Jin who decided to swoop the lands around the Tree Mall but Xiong Da, his newly appointed lawyer who was present for almost all of the meetings and settled all the paperwork. (After all, he managed to convince those people to take up the offer with the allure of money and charisma. He also did not deny that the cultivation training under Jin worked wonders for his line of work as well.)

Property investors did not catch wind of it because the transaction was almost immediate with Jin providing cold hard cash on the spot for them in the millions (of Yuan). Thus, a five kilometre radius around the Tree Mall was now under Jin’s jurisdiction before he started to take in batches of occupants.

As for the development of the five kilometre radius, Jin placed it on halt first since he needed to take care of his Tree Mall before moving on to bigger, loftier goals. But because of the transactions he made, Jin believed he would be able to see returns in less than a year and the profit margin would be high enough to possibly attract foreign investors to develop the Tree Mall even further.

But for now, he was focusing on getting his Tree Mall occupied with both famous brands and local entrepreneurs who wished to have a shot in business. Besides, Jin had the supplies for everything for them to try out, and thus all the new businesses needed was demand. If they do grow big, Jin would like to tap into their business and earn some dividends from them too.

"Help others and ultimately, they will help you." Jin smiled as everything was going smoothly with the aid of the System.
