"Can I still lie to you? Jiaqi accidentally told me this. We all know that Zhang Hao is not short of money. Ten billion is nothing to him."
Zhang Xu's eyes were filled with envy.
Li Ningtao quickly calmed down and said with hesitation: "Zhang Hao is Cao Fan's biological uncle after all. Our relationship is one step closer than ours. How can this be compared?"
"Of course I know we can't compare." Zhang Xu nodded, and then changed the subject: "However, I didn't say that I would borrow 10 billion. This is unrealistic. What I mean is that each of the three of us will only borrow 100 million.
, with these 300 million, it is enough to establish a plantation."
Zhang Kun had never done business before and was a little timid. He couldn't help but worry: "Brother, is it reliable to invest in plantations? What if we lose money?"
"Don't worry, we won't lose. You don't know how tight the food supply is now? Besides, there will be a war in three years, and the food gap will only get bigger and bigger."
Zhang Xu seemed confident.
"What if the policy changes? Just like Ning Tao's hotel, the superiors will forcibly requisition it?"
Zhang Kun persevered and said.
Zhang Xu shook his head: "I don't think it's feasible. What the government needs is food, not plantations. The two cannot be simply confused.
In my opinion, the expropriation of private plantations is of no benefit to the higher authorities at all. It is simply superfluous and thankless. The people above are not that stupid."
"Brother, are you serious?"
Zhang Kun said solemnly.
"Ahem..." Zhang Xu pretended to cough, and then nodded: "Lao San, to be honest, I don't want to take risks, but in today's world, having enough to eat is a luxury. If we want to live well, we just need to
I can give it a try."
Li Ningtao suddenly understood: "Brother Xu, what you say is not unreasonable. Although the profits from investing in plantations are limited, at least it can ensure that the whole family will not go hungry."
"Ning Tao, you understand me. My idea is actually very simple. It is better to rely on ourselves than to rely on others. No matter how rich Zhang Hao is, he cannot support us for the rest of his life.
Even if it is possible, what about the next generation? What about the next generation? If we don’t work hard, it will be the future generations who will suffer in the end.
In addition, there is another important reason. The housing prices in Huicheng are astonishingly high. If we take our salary to death, we will never be able to buy a house in our lifetime."
Zhang Xu also had good intentions.
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Kun was convinced on the spot, gritted his teeth and said: "Brother, I did it."
"Count me in too."
Li Ningtao immediately expressed his stance.
"Okay, I have experience in planting. Second brother, you are good at dealing with the authorities, and Ning Tao, you know how to manage people. As long as we brothers work together, we will definitely succeed immediately."
Zhang Xu was immediately overjoyed.
After getting excited, Li Ningtao asked a relatively sensitive question: "Brother Xu, what should we do if our little cousin doesn't want to lend us money?"
"It's only 300 million, it shouldn't be that much. Besides, Zhang Hao is not that stingy person."
"I mean just in case." Li Ningtao paused, then whispered: "I heard that cousin Zhang Hao seems to owe tens of billions of foreign debts."
"With Zhang Hao's net worth, tens of billions of foreign debts are nothing. Of course, if he really doesn't want to borrow money, don't force it. Let's find a stable job first, and then we can take advantage of the opportunity later."
Zhang Xu is very open-minded. After all, they are not very familiar with Zhang Hao. The relationship between the two parties is maintained by the previous generation. Once the uncle is gone, it will definitely be greatly reduced.
Let me explain here, he is actually very happy to get close to his little cousin, and wants to get more light, but he has been struggling to find the opportunity.
The main reason is that the age gap between the two parties is too big, and they can't play together at all. They finally waited until the other party graduated from college, thinking that they could finally have more contact with each other, but they encountered the Nagada incident again, and finally nothing happened.
Li Ningtao nodded: "It seems we can only take one step at a time."
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Kun also asked a sensitive question: "Brother, should we bring the second brother, as well as the eldest aunt and the younger aunt?"
"No need, the three of us are just right. If there are too many people, problems may arise." Zhang Xu shook his head.
"That's it..." Zhang Kun hesitated.
Zhang Xu quickly comforted him: "If your second brother and the others also want to do business, they can also borrow money from Zhang Hao. There is no need to get involved with us.
To put it bluntly, if the business fails in the future, we may not even have relatives, and my dad and uncle will be angry to death by then?"
In contrast, the three of them have more or less relevant experience, are more tolerant, and usually get closer to each other, so they will not turn into enemies.
"Brother Kun, Brother Xu is right, it's better not to bring them in. This will be better for all of us."
Li Ningtao echoed on the spot.
If it were not for the lack of money and projects, and the current special situation, he would rather work alone than join a business partnership with relatives.
This is a taboo in shopping malls.
Zhang Kun nodded subconsciously: "Since both of you don't agree, then forget it!"
Next, the three of them refined their business plan, and finally decided that Zhang Xu would be the general manager. Zhang Kun and Li Ningtao were both deputy general managers, with one in charge of finance and the other in charge of human resources.
As for the shares, each of the three people holds 30%, so no one suffers any loss. The remaining 10% is given to Zhang Hao as interest on the loan.
Regardless of whether Zhang Hao is willing or not, he has to find ways to get the other party to join him, which is equivalent to finding a big backer for the company, and no one can do it these days.
…
After three days of this, the train, with a speed of only more than 30 kilometers per hour, finally arrived in Huicheng safely, more than ten hours later than scheduled.
The reason for such a long delay is mainly that summer is here and the permafrost is thawing, causing several dangerous landslides along the way.
If the port is not still frozen, taking a boat is actually the most convenient and safest mode of transportation.
After leaving the train station, everyone looked at the surging crowds and bustling street scene in front of them. They couldn't help but feel like they were in another world, and they let out waves of exclamations.
If it weren't for the lack of sun in the sky, the scene would be almost the same as before the Yellowstone volcano erupted.
"No wonder everyone is running to the south. Compared with this place, my hometown is in the sky and on the ground."
Zhang Chongyi was filled with emotions for a while.
Zhang Xu smiled and echoed: "Dad, let alone Laoshan, I think even Shanghai is not as good as here."
"Move here, the sooner you move here, the better."
Zhang Chongyi strengthened his confidence.
Zhang Aiyu and Zhang Aiyun on the side looked at each other. Originally, their family's willingness to move was the lowest, but now they are obviously shaken.
