Just when Li Xiucheng thought he would be leisurely until he flew to the United States, a sudden call from Zhou Tong brought him back into the busyness.
The documents from Tong County have been released, but at the same time there is a competitor!
Zhou Tong realized that the situation was not good and immediately called for help.
"Zheng Guangtao, the nephew of the deputy county magistrate of Tong County. He used to use his connections to work with a few small yamen in the brick, building materials and cement business near the county seat, and was considered to be a small fortune. This time, he teamed up with two local merchants to win over Gastrodia elata. of agency.
This guy didn't know when he found out about us, so he was very thief and kept secretly in contact with the county. Plus, because of his relationship with Deputy County Magistrate Hu, he really kept us in the dark.
If Huang Qinghe hadn't been the first to notice something was wrong yesterday and secretly told me, it would have been possible for him to succeed. "
In the small restaurant, Zhou Tong told Li Xiucheng the specific situation while drinking porridge. Hu Yingmei was also at the same table.
When he received the call yesterday afternoon, Li Xiucheng didn't waste a moment. He took Hu Yingmei and drove over all night. He didn't arrive at Detong County until about 3 o'clock in the middle of the night. He slept soundly for only more than 4 hours.
Both of them looked tired.
After a mouthful of warm porridge, Li Xiucheng felt a little better in his stomach, and then he said: "There are many smart people in this world, so it's strange that no one is paying attention to such a profitable business as Gastrodia elata.
What about strength? What's the opponent's strength? "
"I'm not sure about this, but Huang Qinghe said that Zheng Guangtao has been working in the construction industry for two years, and he has connections to take on some government projects and he should have made a lot of money. Plus there are two partners who should not be short of money. That’s it.”
Hu Yingmei has a small appetite and is already eighty percent full after a bowl of porridge. When she heard this, she worried: "The other party is well-connected and rich. Aren't we in danger?"
She is a finance person and naturally knows how profitable the gastrodia gastrodia business is. The 1.1 million reported by Li Xiucheng plus the 800,000 just received by Wu Jiagui, after excluding costs, she made 1.3 million in one month.
The total profit after this year will never be less than 5 million!
The cost was almost negligible. If such a profitable business was lost, she would be heartbroken!
"It's my fault! It's my negligence!" Zhou Tong blamed himself: "If I had been more careful and discovered something was wrong earlier, and taken precautions earlier, I could have saved a lot of disadvantages.
Now that we have reached the final decisive moment, it is difficult to make amends. "
"Okay, Zhou Tong!"
Li Xiucheng smiled and reassured: "There is no one who does not make mistakes. It is useless to just blame yourself. It is not a loss if you can learn from the mistakes and gain wisdom."
Through his trip to Guangzhou, he completely accepted Zhou Tong.
This guy is smart, well-spoken, and courageous. Apart from his limited experience, he is a very good candidate for execution. Experience is something that comes naturally if you have experienced a lot of things!
Zhou Tong thought he would be scolded, but he didn't expect that he was teaching humbly. He suddenly felt warm in his heart: "Mr. Li, I took note of it!"
Li Xiucheng's calm expression also made Zhou Tong and Hu Yingmei's hearts drop a lot.
After all, the two of them knew Li Xiucheng's abilities very well, and it was obvious that he was so calm now.
After a while, Li Xiucheng put down his chopsticks after eating and drinking.
"Okay, let's go.".
"Go to the county government now? Isn't there a meeting in the afternoon?"
"No, we have to go to Hongmiaozi Village first."
...
It's still the same wide-tiled house, but the difference is that the thatched shed next to it has been torn down and replaced with a wooden frame and tile-roofed pigsty.
The old man was wearing a brand-new blue Chinese tunic suit, smiling as he watched the old woman feeding the pigs. When he turned around and saw someone approaching on the ridge of the field, he immediately went to greet her.
When he got closer, Li Xiucheng looked at the spirited old man and said with a smile: "Old village chief, do you still remember me?"
"Of course I remember!" The old man was deeply impressed by Li Xiucheng. After all, that hundred yuan was the first big money he touched. Later he learned from Zhou Tong that it was a big boss from Xingrong City!
And half a year later, the other party's promise has been fulfilled. Their income this year is much more than in previous years!
The old man was very excited to see Li Xiucheng again.
"Come on, come on, come and sit in the room." The old man half-stepped back to lead the three of them back to the yard, and he didn't forget to shout loudly: "Old lady, the distinguished guest is here, hurry up and make tea and cook!"
"Who?"
The old woman got out and took a look, and quickly recognized Zhou Tong and Li Xiucheng, and immediately ran into the house carrying the ancestral melon gourd.
"No, no, no, we've already eaten!" Li Xiucheng hurriedly stopped him and said, "Old village chief, we came here to ask for your help."
"Drink some water first!" The old man refused.
"No way, we are in a hurry and have to go to the county government for a meeting in the afternoon." As he said that, Li Xiucheng winked at Zhou Tong, and Zhou Tong hurriedly went into the house to stop the old lady.
When the old man saw that Li Xiucheng was really in a hurry, he gave up: "What's so urgent?"
"Well, we need a survey report." Li Xiucheng explained carefully: "We want to calculate the income of Hongmiaozi Village and several larger nearby villages last year.
Then there is everyone’s source of income and the use of land and trees.
Since we have to travel to several villages and don’t have much time, we have to hurry up. "
But the old village chief waved his hands after hearing this and said grandly: "Hey, that's all! It's very simple! You don't need to run away, I'll go to the village committee and call a few nearby villages, and I'll promise you that noon I’ll send you the report.”
Li Xiucheng was overjoyed: "Hey, thank you so much."
"We should be the ones thanking you."
As the old man spoke, he raised his hand, pointed at the pig pen and said, "Look, if you want to thank me, I should thank you on behalf of everyone.
The purchase price of Gastrodia elata has increased this year, and everyone’s income can more than double that of last year.
This day suddenly became much better.
You are our noble one.
Okay, no more talking, you guys sit down first, I'll make a phone call and do some business first. "
With that said, the old man turned around and strode towards the village.
"Mr. Li, do you suddenly feel that what we are doing is so meaningful?"
Seeing the old man leaving with steady steps, Hu Yingmei suddenly turned around and asked Li Xiucheng.
Li Xiucheng smiled and said, "Although the uncle didn't talk much last time I came here, I could feel that he was the kind of person who was not very good at expressing but actually very warm. In fact, it wasn't that he didn't know how to smile, it was just that he lived in poverty. It makes everyone dull and makes people lose their passion for life.
It can not only make money, but also help everyone change the current situation of poverty. Why not do it! "
Hu Yingmei smoothed her hair around her ears and looked at Li Xiucheng, her eyes shining slightly in the morning light.
"I thought you would say that this is the responsibility of each of us. If others hear that you put money first, they will definitely set you up!"
"I can't make them rich by making arrangements. Some people have nothing to do when they're full! If you care about that kind of people, you're making yourself uncomfortable." Li Xiucheng said, walking to the field ridge and casually checking the Gastrodia elata in the field. .
