I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 173 Meeting Cao Jinbo

I took out the cigarettes I bought last night, and handed one to Cao Jinbo and his attendant. After Cao Jinbo took it, he asked me, "How is the business at the inn?"

I smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, if you weren't joking with me, I was really caught by you."

Cao Jinbo had a puzzled expression on his face.

I said again: "A big project has entered into Longkan, and our inn happens to be on the site of this big project... So, it has been demolished a few days ago... Mr. Cao, if it is in Dali, There are not many people who are more informed than you, and you are also a businessman, so you shouldn’t be ignorant of such things.”

Cao Jinbo replied with a smile: "I really don't know about this."

I laughed brighter than Cao Jinbo: "It's a good thing to tear down the inn... Otherwise, I don't know how many people will be offended by guarding this inn... Mr. Cao, to be honest, I really like to make friends , especially those who are older than me, who are full of experience, if we juniors can meet such a big brother who can get along with each other sincerely, the benefits may not be used up in a lifetime!"

While playing with the bracelet, Cao Jinbo replied: "If young people are willing to lower their attitude a bit, those of us who are old are still willing to learn from and promote each other with you. After all, you young people will rule the world in the future. Well, we old guys, we should retire after a few years."

I smiled and didn't answer, but I scolded him in my heart... He is really an old fox who has done bad things himself and wants to smear others. Of course I can hear the meaning of his words, probably warning me to be a junior Yes, don't be too crazy, too high-profile.

……

After a while, Sun Jiwei also arrived, and he also had a companion. After they entered the door, I quickly got up to greet him; Cao Jinbo sat there without moving. After Sun Jiwei greeted me, he went to Cao Jinbo again, He smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, let me introduce you to the person next to me. He has always admired your name for a long time. He knows that we have a dinner today, and he said that he wants to meet you no matter what."

Only then did Cao Jinbo take a look at the visitor.

Sun Jiwei said again: "This is our bureau, the newly appointed deputy director, Luo Zhuming... Many major events in our bureau are handled by him, and he is also a leader who manages every day!"

Cao Jinbo hurriedly stood up from his seat, and then stretched out his hands to the leader. He probably just regarded this Luo Zhuming as Sun Jiwei's follower; Looking straight at people, let alone this Luo Zhuming, at first glance, he doesn't have any leadership aura. He only wears ordinary sportswear, and he doesn't look like a person in an important position at all.

After Cao Jinbo invited Sun Jiwei and Luo Zhuming to sit down, he began to chat with them, but in my opinion, they were all just jokes...

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Sun Jiwei said to Cao Jinbo again: "Boss Cao, you have to toast our director Luo a glass of wine. Now all the sewage discharge certificates of industrial enterprises and inns need to be signed by director Luo." It will only take effect... Director Luo came to see you in person today, because he also attaches great importance to you entrepreneurs."

Cao Jinbo personally poured a glass of wine for Luo Zhuming, then lowered the glass and toasted Luo Zhuming.

At this time, Sun Jiwei winked at me again, signaling me to talk to Cao Jinbo about something serious... I finally understood why Sun Jiwei said this to Cao Jinbo just now. He hoped that Cao Jinbo could connect me with Luo Zhuming so that It is convenient for me to act, this is definitely an ability to control the scene.

I first filled the wine for Cao Jinbo, then filled it up for myself, lowered the glass and made a toast to him, and then said: "Mr. I am really honored to provide you with such an opportunity to get to know each other... I will drink this glass of wine first as a respect!"

After I finished speaking, I raised my head and drank all the wine in the glass.

Cao Jinbo motioned for me to sit down, and then said to me: "I heard that you have something to talk to me about?... Tell me... Say what you want. I admire young people who are simple and direct."

I glanced at Cao Jinbo and said, "I've taken a fancy to Mr. Cao's 16 shops in Jiulongju, and I want to use them to do some business... for a period of one month. Although there is an element of opportunism in this matter, but It is definitely a legitimate business... If Mr. Cao is willing, I hope you can rent these 16 sets of shops to me..."

Cao Jinbo smiled and asked: "What about my return?...Don't ask me to raise the rent. Let me understand that this rent can be earned back by the time I eat this meal with you... ...don't say that I don't give young people opportunities... business is about equality, you have to make me feel that my contribution and benefits are fair in this matter, and then I am willing to continue talking with you."

I responded to Cao Jinbo with a smile, and replied: "I know, Mr. Cao, you can come today because of Brother Sun's face, but I won't let you come in vain... I know that the 16 sets in Jiulongju You have also invested a lot of money in shops... According to the current market of commercial real estate, your industries should have doubled long ago, but because of the overall downturn in Jiulongju, the value that these shops should have has not been reflected , and there are even signs of depreciation... Mr. Cao, let’s be honest, if you sell these shops at the original price, do you think anyone will be willing to take them over?”

"Disaster."

"If you were asked to sell at a lower price than the original price, you might not be reconciled... After all, it is not uncommon for the money invested in real estate to shrink these days."

"It's impossible for me to sell at a low price. I, Cao Jinbo, haven't done a losing business for many years."

I smiled and replied: "If there is such a consensus, then we can communicate much better... Mr. Cao, you now hope that these shops can increase in value... and I want to use these shops to make a quick buck. I'm not a rich man. For me, this kind of investment can be regarded as betting all my wealth... Therefore, I will only do it if I have a lot of confidence... This is the basis for me not to talk to you ...During this period of time, I have been seriously researching the reason why Jiulongju did not become popular. In fact, in terms of geographical location, it is really not bad...The reason why it did not become popular is because people with money invested in this place The loss of confidence, coupled with the lack of publicity in the early stage, has caused the current deserted situation... Jiulongju is like a pool of stagnant water. If it wants to regain its vitality, it must have people who dare to throw stones in it... ...I didn't mean to elevate myself, but I really dare to do it... If I can do this, I can't guarantee whether I can revive this stagnant pool... But at least it can prove that Mr. Cao These shops can make money, and Jiulongju is not as evil as everyone says, this is the embodiment of value... It will also give confidence to other investors. Once everyone is gathered together, Mr. Cao will really benefit A big family like you..."

After a short pause, I said again: "If coming to eat this meal is considered a price, you have paid such a small price, but what you got in return is an opportunity... I don't believe Mr. Cao, you will refuse."

After finishing these words, I did not blindly have too much confidence, because this is a business, not a speech. If it is a speech, I can give myself [-] points, but the real business, can convince the other party in a few words There are not many examples... What's more, there is still a feud between me and Cao Jinbo. He dislikes my ignorance, and I hate his insidiousness. This is also true.
