Chapter 1002 The Landlord Has No Surplus Food

"no problem"

Ai Jiaqing looked at Li Xuewu for several seconds, then smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "We can talk."

"Then be open and honest."

After Li Huaide and Jing Yunong sat down on the long sofa, Li Xuewu sat on the single sofa diagonally opposite her.

He likes this position very much. From a psychological point of view, he will not be too rigid or extreme in negotiations.

He chose a single sofa and clearly told the other party that he was the protagonist of today's negotiation.

Li Huaide and Jing Yunong were very relieved. After sitting down, they did not speak, but just listened.

At this time, there is no need to go through all the red tape. Everyone is here for the money, so just be an ordinary person.

"I want to know the goal of your operation this time, all of it..."

Li Xuewu emphasized, then looked at Ai Jiaqing seriously and said: "This is the basis of cooperation."

“Cooperation requires equality”

Ai Jiaqing glanced at Li Huaide and Jing Yunong, picked up the teacup and said slowly: "It seems that the steel mill is still very powerful."

Li Xuewu's eyes moved, but he did not respond to her immediately. Instead, he straightened his jacket, sat up straight, looked at her and said, "The steel mill has a lot of money, but not a penny is redundant."

"..."

Ai Jiaqing paused holding the teacup, lowered his eyes, put down the cup, and said: "The money you have in the Oriental Times Bank is not enough for the admission ticket."

“That depends on whether the show is exciting or not.”

Li Xuewu said in a very serious manner: "If it is very exciting, then it is worth investing in. It's just an admission ticket."

"Then why not tell me how much you can give?"

Ai Jiaqing also sat up straight, looked at Li Xuewu and raised his eyebrows, seeming to be embarrassed, but also expectant.

Li Xuewu looked at her and paused for more than ten seconds before saying, "For all trade projects and tertiary industry factories, Oriental Times Bank is willing to provide mortgage loans..."

Having said this, Ai Jiaqing's eyes moved slightly. She knew that Li Xuewu was related to the newly emerging Oriental family Lou in Hong Kong, but she didn't expect the relationship to be so deep.

It is rare to use mainland properties as collateral for mortgage loans at Hong Kong City Bank at that time.

In particular, Li Xuewu did not finish his words, leaving a gap, like a blank check that could be filled in at will.

Ai Jiaqing did not have a very intuitive impression of the trade industry and tertiary industry he mentioned.

She had no idea how much it was worth, or how much she could borrow.

But she knew that the combined trade was transported by train, which belonged to the steel mill itself.

The tertiary industries of the steel rolling mill include the existing automobiles, hardware, electronics, etc.

Although these industries are still in their early stages of development, their strong momentum and very promising future have convinced her that this loan is more than the entry ticket she had claimed.

However, Li Xuewu cannot make all the decisions. She is very clear that Li Xuewu has considerable power in the steel mill, but he can never cover everything with one hand.

At this time, Ai Jiaqing turned his gaze to Li Huaide and Jing Yunong, who was in charge of finance.

Jing Yunong frowned slightly and looked at the two of them. When he saw her looking at him, he didn't say anything.

Instead, it was Li Huaide who took the initiative to sit up straight, raised his hand to signal Li Xuewu's direction, and said to Ai Jiaqing: "Comrade Xuewu is in charge of the trade and economic operations of the steel mill."

After saying this, it can be basically confirmed that Li Xuewu has limited authority to represent in the negotiations at the steel mill.

It can only be trade and economic operations, and cannot affect its own steel rolling and metallurgical industries.

In other words, Old Li was very courageous. He took out all the money he had saved over the past year and gave it to Li Xuewu for a big gamble.

As for why he and Jing Yunong were so courageous and determined, and why they all trusted Li Xuewu, we will talk about this later.

Now, Ai Jiaqing had a plan in mind. The other party had already revealed his cards, and it was time for her to play.

"Since the second half of last year, the situation in Hong Kong and Macau has been unstable."

Ai Jiaqing said slowly: "Especially when the economic situation in the two places has seriously declined and people's livelihood is difficult to maintain, the population continues to grow, the managers are inactive, and security is not guaranteed."

After briefly explaining the background, she glanced at the three people and saw that they all understood. She then realized that the cadres in the mainland were also paying attention to the news in the south.

"On the basis of boosting the economy and ensuring people's livelihood, Wufeng Bank must further stabilize the market situation and expand its economic influence..."

What Ai Jiaqing said was a little vague, but Li Xuewu and the other two understood. Naturally, some things are not convenient to say directly.

But everyone who understands understands.

The market economy has its cruel and realistic side. Whether you want to save the market or stabilize the market, the prerequisite is that you must have a certain degree of influence and execution.

This is what Wufenghang wants now. It must first gain a firm foothold before it can pull others ashore.

"so!"

After Ai Jiaqing finished speaking, Li Xuewu asked directly: "The targets are the financial industry and commercial trade, right?"

"You can say that"

Seeing Li Xuewu's frankness, Ai Jiaqing glanced at him. At this moment, she felt that Li Xuewu was a little too eager for quick success.

Li Xuewu didn't pay attention to her look. With an investment of tens of millions, he didn't feel embarrassed no matter how cautious and materialistic he was.

"Financial investment is nothing more than the securities market and the bond market. Precious metals, foreign exchange and real estate also have certain ups and downs in this environment."

Although Li Xuewu is a layman in finance, he has been reading books and learning knowledge in this area during this period.

Of course, no matter how much he learns, he is not a professional. He can understand and talk about it, but he definitely cannot actually manage the investment.

Not to mention operating a business, he can't even do the most basic business, and he can't make money beyond his knowledge.

However, he now has resources in his hands, and what he can leverage is definitely not just professional talents to help him make money, but also a deeper level of influence.

“There’s more to it than that”

Ai Jiaqing looked at Li Xuewu deeply, and then explained: "Our primary goal is to stabilize the situation and protect people's livelihood, so the scope is very broad, not as absolute as you said."

"But I need at least your expected profit from economic operations."

Li Xuewu leaned back in his chair, pursed his lips, and said, "Using our reserve funds in the Oriental Times Bank, and requiring steel raw materials, I want double the feedback."

"Now"

He nodded slightly and said to Ai Jiaqing: "You want to raise the threshold for cooperation, how much should I ask for?"

Ai Jiaqing knew how difficult Li Xuewu was to deal with, and she also knew that his economic vision was much higher than his understanding of economics.

You may feel that he is not so professional when discussing economics, but you can never ignore his keen sense and thinking about money.

For example, this time when she came to visit him unexpectedly, they only met once and didn't talk for more than five minutes after sitting down, but he already had a plan.

After leaving Li Huaide for a few hours and coming back, the conversation went straight to the point.

It is no longer a loan, nor a favor, but the cruelty and bloodiness exposed by the shark after smelling fresh blood.

If it was just a loan or lending cooperation, Li Xuewu would not have been so aggressive.

The uncompromising negotiations made Ai Jiaqing feel that this was the business Grandet.

"As the commercial representative of Wufenghang, how about I invite you to go to Hongcheng to participate in this operation?"

Ai Jiaqing said in a somewhat stiff tone: "The profit sharing can be calculated based on equal investment ratios."

"Haha~"

When Li Xuewu heard the other party's angry words, he chuckled without commenting, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Jing Yunong's eyes looked at him meaningfully.

The situation was a bit tense for a moment, and no one in the reception room wanted to break the silence first.

Li Huaide sat there with a calm demeanor, his head lowered, like an old cat that had fallen asleep.

Only the occasional twitching of his eyebrows showed that he was thinking intensely, and his claws were still sharp and restrained.

If the investment of tens of millions fails, all his efforts in the steel mill will be wasted and he will have to start all over again.

During this period, no one could withstand such a huge failure, not even him.

But the temptation of huge profits, especially the opportunity to extend the tentacles of foreign trade to the port city, forced him to think carefully.

Li Xuewu did not mention it at the factory office meeting, but he spoke very directly and clearly when communicating with him and several other deputy leaders.

This time, Wufengxing must have made the investment with the imperial edict in hand, so no matter what they do, it will not be excessive.

The steel mill took advantage of the situation and sought not only wealth but also power, and was more greedy than ever.

Whether it is financial operation or business cooperation, such a large-scale action must have a sufficient foundation of trust.

It is not easy to make the steel mill trust Wufeng Bank, and it is even more difficult to make Wufeng Bank trust the steel mill.

Therefore, a necessary prerequisite for equal cooperation is closer cooperation and communication, even interweaving our destinies.

Li Xuewu may not be able to calculate the fate and fortune of other companies, but as for Wufenghang, he dares to say that it will have no rivals in the world in the next 20 years.

Resource management can never be understood by the market economy, and it cannot be simply explained by market laws.

You can do without building materials, you can do without mainland products, but try not drinking mainland water, and not eating mainland rice, flour, grain, oil, meat, eggs and milk.

Lijiaopo is a particularly realistic example. In later times, even water supply became a problem in that country. Do you think he had the courage to speak out?

Ai Jia's blue cheeks twitched slightly, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Li Xuewu gradually changed from sharp to helpless, and finally to calm, without any sharpness anymore.

Seeing her change so much, even Jing Yunong felt that Li Xuewu was a little too petty.

Of course, her butt was not sitting crooked. She knew whose food she was eating. She was thinking about it at the moment, but her expression was still serious.

“It’s impossible to do what you said.”

Ai Jiaqing shook his head slightly, looked at Li Xuewu seriously and said: "There is no absolute balance in absolute benefits. Asking for too much will make no sense for both our companies."

Having said this, she looked at Li Huaide and Jing Yunong and nodded slowly: "I firmly believe that Red Star Steel Rolling Mill has expectations for future cooperation and goals for development in the new era."

Li Huaide didn't respond, but he put down the teacup and listened to her carefully.

Mr. Li’s business level is average. Not to mention production, he really can’t keep up with the pace financially.

It's a little difficult to get him to speak or negotiate, but he can still understand what he says.

At this moment, he was just thinking without expressing his opinion, giving Li Xuewu, the main negotiator, the maximum room for easing the situation.

If Li Xuewu feels that the cooperation is inappropriate, Jing Yunong can speak out against it, and he can also veto it, so as not to put Li Xuewu in a difficult position.

Ai Jiaqing was trying to avoid falling into this embarrassing situation, so he changed his persuasion target and explained his ideas to the two of them.

But the effect was not good. Both Li Huaide and Jing Yunong could listen but refused to speak.

She was both amused and angry, and was even more curious about the power structure of the steel mill and why they trusted a deputy-division-level cadre to step up and handle such a big matter.

Ai Jiaqing was curious, but she was actually looking outside the building and couldn't see what was going on inside.

The construction of the steel rolling mill trade project and the tertiary industry economy has its own particularity and inevitability.

The three people present today basically represent the vested interests of the two projects and also represent the ownership of the cake.

If steel raw materials are the assets of the steel mill, then capital and trade are all the results of the work of the three people.

Now they are just participating in a gamble that is inevitable in this era.

If you lose, the most you can do is be transferred and start over.

If he wins, the steel mill will have funds for construction in the next three years, and Jing Yunong won't have to face everyone with a sour face anymore.

During his communication and reporting, Li Xuewu not only estimated the development funds for the next three years, but also the full opening of foreign trade.

Now, as soon as Ai Jiaqing finished speaking, with a somewhat defeated expression on his face, Li Xuewu suddenly said: "The profits can be negotiated, but the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill wants the import and export trade rights of Wufeng Bank."

"you……!"

Ai Jiaqing suddenly turned around, looked at Li Xuewu and asked seriously: "Are you sure you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course!"

Li Xuewu raised his head slightly, looked at Ai Jiaqing and said: "There is no absolute balance in absolute benefits."

He returned the words to the other party exactly as they were, and emphasized them more.

This made Jing Yunong's mouth twitch slightly, and he hurriedly lowered his head to drink tea to hide the smile that he couldn't help but smile.

Ai Jiaqing didn't have the energy to pay attention to the changes in the expressions of the two leaders of the steel rolling mill. She stared at Li Xuewu's eyes, narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked again: "What do you want to do?"

"develop"

Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Our factory needs to go out and bring in, and we need more space and support."

Ai Jiaqing looked at him deeply and did not ask any more questions. What she wanted to ask was not Li Xuewu's answer, but his attitude.

It is the attitude of a steel mill!

She was just wondering why the steel mill acted out of character and was still hesitating whether to agree to her request when she left.

When he turned around and came back, he didn't talk about borrowing money or borrowing goods, but instead talked about cooperation.

Now she understood that Li Xuewu's emphasis on doubling the profits at the beginning was a complete cover-up and a bait to lure him.

The real purpose was revealed. When the matter had come to this point and he had almost confessed everything, he finally opened his crocodile mouth.

Now, Li Huaide stopped stretching and Jing Yunong stopped performing, and their eyes turned sharp when they looked at Ai Jiaqing.

From the very beginning, their trust and support for Li Xuewu all came from the opportunities for foreign import and export trade that this cooperation could open up.

Look carefully, what Li Xuewu just proposed was not the import and export trading rights, but the import and export trading rights of Wufeng Bank.

What do you mean?
Under the current foreign trade environment, imported and exported goods must follow the unified arrangements of import and export companies, including order taking, signing contracts, production, settlement, etc.

But there are always some companies that are outside the three realms and not within the five elements, such as Wufenghang, China Resources Land, etc.

When they carry out import and export trade, they directly connect with production factories or industrial management, and there is basically no mobilization or use of foreign exchange.

In other words, their roots are abroad, their development is abroad, and their operations are abroad.

Now Li Xuewu has proposed to share the import and export trade rights of Wufeng Bank through the investment cooperation of the steel rolling mill, and then cooperate with the existing business layout of the steel rolling mill. What do you think the future will be like?

Three years of construction funds can be solved, and ten or twenty years of leading development advantages will be established, which is priceless.

It is this goal that moved Li Huaide, made Cheng Kaiyuan give in, and won the support of all factory leaders.

Of course, Li Xuewu would not bring up this point right away. Just looking at Ai Jiaqing's reaction now, you can imagine the consequences if he did so.

Even though it was brought up now, there was still no affirmative response from Ai Jiaqing.

Li Xuewu was not in a hurry to replenish his chips, nor did he urge her. He just sat there casually, waiting for her decision.

Ai Jiaqing closed his eyes slightly, thinking quickly about the pros and cons of this cooperation.

It can be said that Li Xuewu posed a big problem to her, Wufenghang, and the entire plan.

You can say that it is better to refuse now, and neither side will suffer any loss. Are you still afraid that the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill will take the money and operate in Gangcheng?
Of course not. Even though she is sitting here negotiating on behalf of Wufeng Bank, the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill dares to go all in.

But if they had really been asked to go by themselves, or if someone else had come to talk, it might not have reached this point today.

Especially since time was tight and she had a flight in the afternoon, the one who was anxious was not the steel mill, but her.

"I need to make a phone call"

Ai Jiaqing opened his eyes and said something, then stood up and walked out.

Li Xuewu leaned sideways, followed her with his eyes, and said jokingly, "Can we call Hong Kong from here?"

"It's heading to Xiyuan!"

Ai Jiaqing replied unhappily and left without looking back.

When Li Xuewu saw Jing Yunong looking at him, he raised his eyebrows with an expression that said, "I'm innocent, I didn't provoke her."

Jing Yunong looked at him, the corner of his mouth twitched, and then he pouted and asked softly: "How sure are you?"

“Only 10% when I first walked in”

Li Xuewu raised a finger, then blinked his left eye lightly and said with a sly smile: "Now, it's still 10%.

"you……!"

When Jing Yunong saw Li Xuewu teasing him, he glared at him.

It can be seen that Li Xuewu then explained: "Now there is still 10% left, and she chose to refuse."

“Don’t be too confident!”

Realizing the meaning of Li Xuewu's words, Jing Yunong glared at him in reproach but nodded at him.

Li Huaide sat there listening to the conversation between the two, with a complicated expression on his face.

He was now afraid that Ai Jiaqing would agree, but also afraid that Ai Jiaqing would refuse.

If the cooperation really starts, it means that in a short period of time, the steel mill will have to put all its limited resources on Wufenghang.

If they refuse, it means that the steel mill has lost an opportunity for take-off and it will be difficult to exploit such a loophole in the future.

Jing Yunong thought for a moment and asked Li Xuewu softly, "Why did she come to us to borrow money, and why did she agree to cooperate with us?"

"Two points"

Li Xuewu held up two fingers, the index finger and the middle finger, pressed down his index finger and explained: "Wufenghang has extensive cooperation in the mainland, but most of them are grain, oil and non-staple food, and few heavy industries."

"Second point"

He shook his remaining finger and explained: "She is sure that we dare to borrow money because our foreign trade depends on Wufenghang."

Jing Yunong understood now. She didn't notice the incoming fingers, but she thought it through.

The steel rolling mill cooperated with Wufenghang in the food industry, and then cooperated with Dongfeng Trading as a basis to trade in hardware and other commodities.

For all import and export trade, except for ships which are negotiated by ourselves, all other export work must be completed through Dongfeng Trading.

Other matters such as the import of equipment and technology require coordination and cooperation between Oriental Times Bank and Ng Fung Bank to complete.

In other words, if the steel mill does not agree to the loan, it means that the cooperative relationship with Wufeng Bank will be cracked, which will have a far-reaching impact on future trade work.

Maybe the other party didn't expect that Li Xuewu was good at taking advantage of the situation, causing Ai Jiaqing to end up losing more than he gained.

You are threatening me with the import and export trade rights, so I will go all in and play with you, but I will take away your trump card.

On the one hand, the mode of cooperation is changed, and on the other hand, the intensity of cooperation is increased. Now the pressure has shifted to Wufenghang.

Jing Yunong didn't ask any more questions, and she wasn't even surprised that Ai Jiaqing could call Xiyuan.

Economic work is more difficult now than ever before.

Not to mention an investment of tens of millions, even a few million would alarm the higher-ups.

The most crucial thing is that this time the steel mill did not use resources from the mainland. Except for the export of heavy industrial raw materials, all funds came from the port city.

Putting aside the risks, the steel mill actually did not lose anything. It simply brought in Oriental Times Bank to act as a guarantee.

In any case, no matter how much profit Wufeng Bank makes this time, the steel mill will take a part and the bank will also take a part.

As for losing money or making a loss, that is nonsense.

If Ai Jiaqing really dared to say that he had lost money on this investment, he would even bring an accountant to Gangcheng to audit it personally.

He has been playing football all his life, and he has never heard of a professional team losing to a kindergarten group!

Of course, if you insist on talking about those guys who ate sea cucumbers, just pretend he never said that.

It's not that he is cowardly, only those who are cowardly know.

If you ask Ai Jiaqing whether he can really make the call there, Li Xuewu will say whether he believes it or not.

He wasn't the one making the call, so even if he were to answer the call, he wouldn't be 100% sure it was real.

He would not be sure it was true unless he was taken to an interview in person and met the other party in person.

Of course, once he meets the other person in person, he might not be so courageous to talk.

The call lasted not very long, but not short either. Fortunately, it was not the steel mill that was in a hurry.

Li Huaide was not in a hurry, just a little anxious. He didn't say a word for a long time, fearing that if he said something wrong, money would jump out of his mouth.

Li Xuewu, who sold anxiety to him, was leisurely drinking tea, listening to the noise coming from the corridor, with the corners of his mouth naturally raised.
-

“Why do I feel like there are so many foreigners in international hotels?”

Jing Yunong looked back at the hotel and asked Li Xuewu in confusion.

Li Xuewu also took a look and was surprised to see that there were actually a few foreigners he didn't know drinking afternoon tea in the restaurant on the first floor.

This is very hard work. Foreigners are really leisurely at work. They report to work at 9:00 in the morning and have lunch at 11:30.

Take a short break at noon, go back to work at 1:30, and it's time for afternoon tea at 4pm.

Aren't the countries where these foreigners live bourgeois economies and societies?
In foreign countries, shouldn't it be the business owners who wave their hands and passionately direct the managers to wave whips and drive the workers to do hard labor?

Oh, in this modern civilized society, business owners have more covert and civilized methods.

They don't need to exhort managers to work harder. All they need to do is slip something called options or something else through their fingers to make managers look grim and swear allegiance to them until death.

As for those productive forces and workers, there is no need to wave the whip anymore. Instead, they can just draw big pictures and save energy. Coffee works better than the whip.

So when Li Xuewu looked at the foreigners drinking coffee and looking at documents through the glass window, he did not feel envious at all.

Zhang Songying stood behind the two and explained softly: "They are foreign affairs personnel on this street, and some are tour groups, business representatives and travel reporters."

As she said this, she signaled to the foreigner who was looking over there and greeting her with a smile and nod, and introduced him as: "He is from Germany, and his name is Max."

Li Xuewu also responded with a smile and nodded slowly, returning the other party's courtesy.

Turning his head, he looked at Zhang Songying and asked, "Germany is so far away, why did you come here?"

"Said to be a reporter"

Zhang Songying reminded softly: "On weekdays, when we travel, we are accompanied by reception cadres from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. They take photos and, I think, write travel notes."

"I'll see him later"

Seeing that the driver had already driven the car over, Li Xuewu got into the car with Jing Yunong.

Under Zhang Songying's gaze, the Modou brand sedan drove steadily out of the compound.

Li Huaide did not go with them, but took the initiative to send Ai Jiaqing to the airport.

If it were in the past, of course Li Xuewu would be the one to send him off, or let the other party make their own arrangements.

But the situation is different now, and Li Huaide must always do his best to be a good host.

In the car, Jing Yunong watched the scenery outside the window receding, with some worry between his brows, but his expression no longer had the seriousness he had when he first came.

Now thinking of what Li Xuewu had just said, he glanced around and asked, "Are you interested in those foreigners?"

"Huh? Haha~"

Li Xuewu was slightly stunned, then he laughed. When Jing Yunong glared at him, he explained: "I am not interested in foreigners, but I want foreigners to be interested in me."

"What do you mean?"

Jing Yunong felt that Li Xuewu's words today were very vague and he had not yet gotten out of the rhythm of negotiation.

Li Xuewu pointed out the window and asked Jing Yunong, "In this cold winter with no wind or snow, what do you think the foreigners are doing here?"

"How would I know~"

Jing Yunong curled his lips, crossed his arms and said: "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush. I can't beat you."

This is too absolute. Just now at the International Hotel, she was not like this...

It had been some time since Li Huaide sent Ai Jiaqing away, and Jing Yunong did not say to go back immediately. Instead, he pulled him back to the reception room and discussed for a long time.

"Foreigners have come all the way here to go through complicated immigration procedures. They can't just come here to take a look, right?"

Li Xuewu raised his hand and pointed behind him with his thumb, saying: "Those who call themselves reporters are actually the same as the preachers of the past."

"what do you mean……"

Jing Yunong's eyes lit up and he asked, "Are they here to explore the way?"

“You can’t be here for tourism.”

Li Xuewu curled the corners of his mouth, patted Jing Yunong's round thigh, and reminded him softly: "The more closed the environment, the more complex the economy."

Jing Yunong glared at him and rolled his eyes, then raised his hand and pulled his hand away, reminding him to be careful.

Although Li Xue didn't follow, the driver was driving in front.

Besides, she doesn't like others touching her, especially in front of outsiders.

She had no resistance when faced with Li Xuewu's charm, but in the car and at work, she didn't want this to affect her independent thinking.

Li Xuewu looked at her with amusement, thinking she was too persistent.

Li Huaide and he both patted their knees and arms. The leader sat in the back seat of the car and made gestures during the conversation or to remind the other party. Some of the actions were not excessive.

Besides, he is not a sex-hungry man who really wants to take advantage of the other person.

It was just a casual shot. He was used to it, but it made Jing Yunong nervous.

"cough~"

She coughed in a serious manner, glanced ahead, and asked Li Xuewu, "What are you going to do?"

"What do you mean?"

Li Xuewu glanced at her. It would have been fine if she hadn't coughed just now, but she did it so deliberately that the driver's ears moved.

Of course, the driver would be fine, he didn't do anything out of line, and the topic they were talking about was not confidential.

"I'm asking you, what are you going to do about the foreigners who come to the International Hotel?"

Jing Yunong frowned slightly, looked at him and asked, "Didn't you just say you wanted to meet them?"

"Oh~"

Li Xuewu nodded and said, "That's the idea, but I haven't come across it before."

After saying that, he smiled and said to Jing Yunong: "Whether there are dates or not, just try your best."

"Nonsense~"

Jing Yunong curled his lips, knowing that this person would become unserious once he became serious.

Too lazy to ask him any more, I changed the subject and asked, "What do you think about Wufeng Bank using that money for more than half a year?"

“Well, it’s really difficult.”

Li Xuewu nodded slowly, put on a serious expression, and said: "But from the other party's point of view, half a year is not really that long. Market adjustments are not that simple."

After saying that, he raised his head slightly, thought for a moment and said, "I am mentally prepared for the other party to use it beyond the expiration date."

"Overdue? How long?"

Jing Yunong looked at him and said, "The money our factory spent was used to introduce technology and equipment, and more importantly..."

"Yeah, yeah, I know."

Li Xuewu interrupted her and explained seriously: "They said it would take half a year, so you need a year to prepare."

"A year?!"

Jing Yunong was about to jump up and down, and now his brows were furrowed again, saying: "I didn't have any money to begin with, and now it will take another year. I'm really going to starve!"

"Even if it means starving, we must persevere"

Li Xuewu said calmly: "At least from now on, we can plan to export more products."

“I’m afraid it will be a drop in the bucket. No matter how many businesses we get, it won’t alleviate this financial pressure.”

Jing Yunong knew that getting angry and anxious would not solve the problem, so he said sadly: "I really doubt whether I can survive the first half of the year."

"Haha, that's serious."

Li Xuewu chuckled, but when he saw her glaring at him, he put away his smile awkwardly and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, there will be a way."

“May your solutions be greater than your problems”

Jing Yunong no longer had the energy to argue with him and was still thinking about how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

Wufenghang put forward a cooperation requirement, which is that the profit should be calculated by halving the investment ratio.

In addition, if the steel rolling mill uses Wufeng Bank's import and export trade rights, it must fully pay the tariffs generated by this part of the trade.

From this point, we can also see that some things sold by Wufenghang are not subject to customs duties.

You ask them so wild?
Of course, their ways are just that wild.

Li Xuewu doesn't care whether he has to pay taxes or not. If he really pays taxes, things will be easier.

At least the import and export trade commodities have been legalized and are no longer under the Wufenghang brand.

As for the rest, regarding the basic steel raw materials that were urgently transferred to the port city this month, and the tertiary products currently produced by the steel rolling mill, the settlement period will be extended and may have to be settled together with the revenue.

This is guaranteed by Oriental Times Bank and can be trusted.

Looking at this cooperation from the perspective of Oriental Times Bank, the steel mill mortgaged 23 million, plus the more than 10 million deposited by the steel mill in the bank and the payment for goods, the investment of nearly 45 million directly maximized the benefits of this cooperation.

Even if Ai Jiaqing brought the order back from Xiyuan, this amount of money was enough for Li Huaide to straighten his back and coordinate business with his superiors.

Yes, the one who owes money is the boss.

Now the steel mill has mortgaged part of its business and the money has been taken away by Wufeng Bank.

He has no money left, but instead owes the bank a large sum of money, so he is a big shot now.

Don't look for him if there are any merger messes in the future, the landlords have no surplus food.

In addition, the steel rolling mill now has the import and export trade authority of Wufeng Bank and can carry out trade work on specific commodities.

Li Xuewu and Li Huaide had discussed in advance that not only the steel rolling mill's own products should be exported, but also the products of the tertiary industry and joint industry should be exported in an integrated manner.

It's a simple truth that early exposure to the external environment and participation in global competition will be beneficial to the development of steel mills.

This is also an opportunity. The reasons for applying for groupization are more sufficient and the strength is stronger.

After the start of this cooperation, the cooperation between Wufenghang and Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill in Hong Kong and Beijing will become closer.

Wufenghang has advantages in the port city, and the steel rolling mill has advantages in the capital. The reason why Ai Jiaqing coordinated with the higher-ups was that the two sides had complementary advantages.

While further supplementing Wufenghang's market expansion needs, it also increases its own strength and can feed back to the mainland economy.

The products of steel rolling mills are mostly designed and manufactured for foreign trade orders. If they are really put into the domestic market, the profit will definitely not be as much as that from foreign trade.

Let me tell you another fact. Is it worth it to get Wufenghang to endorse the group development of the steel rolling mill?
Li Huaide was able to figure this out in his mind, so as you saw, he took the initiative to send Ai Jiaqing to the airport.

What the steel rolling mill needs to do next is to stabilize its own development, quickly advance all projects, and achieve normal production.

During this process, the funds and goods used by Wufeng Bank will be recovered.

The proceeds from the liquidation will be used for the fundamental expansion of the steel rolling industry and metallurgical industry of the steel mill.

In the five-year development plan for the steel mill, it has been clearly stated that it is necessary to build a world-class heavy industrial enterprise.

Steel rolling and metallurgy are the foundation, and a huge amount of money needs to be invested. This old horse cannot get fat without eating grass at night.

If we really develop in a gradual manner, it will take at least five years to complete the construction of the factory, and at least seven to eight years to truly achieve normal production.

No one knows better than Li Huaide and Li Xuewu what time means to the steel mill and to them.

The faster Li Huaide achieves the group-building goal in the next few years, the more stable his position in the steel rolling mill will be.

If the rising period lasts for five or eight years, he might be transferred.

This is undoubtedly a loss for Li Huaide and Li Xuewu.

The best option is for Li Huaide to take the lead and progress with the development of the company.

When the enterprise's progress ends, that's when he loses his function.

Li Xuewu did not want Li Huaide to end his working career in the steel mill so early. It seemed that such a "useful" leader was rare.

Regarding what happened on Friday, the implementation procedures were communicated and agreed upon between Ai Jiaqing and Jing Yunong.

The cooperation procedures were completed by the commission's Ding Zigui under the guidance of Li Huaide.

Although Lao Li looks very busy, he is very energetic.

When the dust settled and the cooperation was reached, the worries in his heart were swept away, and all that was left was to move forward.

He really didn't dare to set any goals for this project, but implicitly, the three of them were determined that only success and no failure were allowed.

After lunch on Saturday, Li Xuewu had no time to rest. He let Peng Xiaoli carry his luggage and take him to the downstairs of the main office building.

Li Huaide's car was already waiting here, and the driver helped Peng Xiaoli put the luggage in the trunk.

After waiting for a few minutes, Li Huaide also came down from the building. The two of them had agreed to go to Tianjin together for a "meeting".

The weather was too cold, and it wasn't like they hadn't seen each other for ten or eight years, so there was nothing to talk about outside.

After listening to Li Huaide's wave of his hand, he got into the car. There was no secretary accompanying him, only a driver, which made him seem a lot more relaxed.

"When will the passenger car you mentioned be produced?"

"The frame has been arranged and is waiting to be shipped out."

Li Xuewu replied with a smile: "It will probably take about a month to get from Gangcheng to Tianjin."

"Oh, I really want to see what kind of car you are talking about"

Li Huaide is a really complicated person. He is always worried about gains and losses when investing, and his cautious look seems to be pulling at his intestines.

But when it was over, he became generous and thought about enjoying himself!
No, if he eats too much fine grains, he will get dizzy, right?

It’s time to teach Lao Li a lesson on how to recall the past and appreciate the present!
