Chapter 711 A man with a bottom line(1/2)
Wang Lidong took out the prepared dried fish and asked his little sister to catch one and feed it to the orange cat. "Meow" the orange cat first licked Xiaoxian's fingers, then rolled the fish into its tongue and ate it with relish.
.
Xiaoxian was licked by the orange cat and giggled. She couldn't help but reach out and stroke the orange cat's head.
"Xiaoshan, how old is this cat? Male or female?"
"It's 5 months old. It's a male cat." Wang Lidong explained to his parents what the orange cat should pay attention to. The most important thing is to eat. Try not to feed the cat food, and usually eat some chicken, fish, shrimp, and chicken offal.
"You can also feed some Peiyuan soup, so you don't have to worry about snakes, insects, rats, ants, etc."
Within a few days of arriving in Australia, he encountered several snakes in his yard. Although they were all non-venomous, they were too common. With this cat, he no longer had to worry about these disgusting things.
The reunion is always short-lived. After Xiaoxian's birthday, it is also the day for Wang Lidong to return to China.
When we were leaving at the airport, the little girl burst into tears. She hugged his thigh and refused to let go. The three of them coaxed the little girl together for half an hour before the little girl finally let go and let him get on the plane.
When passing the ticket gate, Wang Lidong remembered an important event. He took the old couple to a remote corner and said seriously, "Mom and Dad, remember to go back to Sihai before the Chinese New Year this year."
The old couple hurriedly asked about the reason. Wang Lidong shook his head slightly and said, "It's hard to talk about this matter. Our lives are at stake anyway. You must remember and don't tell others about this matter, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
Seeing their son's serious face, the old couple thought of his son's character and knew it was not a joke, so they promised to return to Sihai before the New Year.
After bidding farewell to his parents and the fairy, Wang Lidong boarded the plane. When he arrived in the business class, he accidentally spotted Chen Xiaoyun's agent. He stepped forward to say hello and looked at the passengers around him, "Chen Xiaoyun is not with you."
?”
Sister Hong said with a smile, "She returned to China two days ago. Is Dr. Xu returning to Mingzhu?"
Wang Lidong nodded, and after a few polite greetings, he followed the flight attendant to his seat. He looked at the seat next to him and saw a middle-aged man in a suit.
Wearing a blindfold, I slept all the way to Mingzhu. When I got off the plane, I found that Sister Hong had long disappeared. She didn’t even say hello when she left. When I passed the departure hall, I saw a familiar figure. I walked up and said hello,
"Wang Manni."
When Wang Manni saw her friend's husband, she smiled and said, "Old Xu, what a coincidence. Have you just come back from Australia?"
Lao Xu?
It seems that Wang Manni and Gu Jia get along well. In fact, their personalities are somewhat similar.
In terms of spending money, Gu Jia belongs to the moonlight family and spends whatever she earns from the company, while Wang Manni earns 17,000 to 8,000 yuan a month. In order to pursue the quality of life, she spends 7,000 yuan to rent a big house. After working hard in Mingzhu for ten years,
All bank cards added together do not exceed 10,000.
Moreover, both of them are ambitious, pursuing class advancement and self-realization, but Gu Jia was more lucky, being born in Mingzhu, and then caught Xu Huanshan, a big grievance.
Wang Manni was born in a small fourth- and fifth-tier city, and her first love was not strong enough. She met the diamond king, Liang Zhenxian, and thought she was the right one. Unexpectedly, he just wanted to support her.
"Yes. What about you, are you going out at this time, or have you just come back?"
"I just came back from Fiji."
"Oh, it's right next to Australia. Maybe we can be on the same flight."
The two checked the flight numbers and found that they were indeed on the same plane, but Wang Lidong was in business class and Wang Manni was in business class.
Wang Lidong asked politely if he wanted to take a ride back together. At this time, a man with a mustache came to the two of them pushing a trolley suitcase and said, "Mannie!"
Wang Manni looked at her boyfriend and said, "Have you bought the things?"
Liang Zhenxian smiled and nodded, looked at Wang Lidong and said, "Mannie, why don't you introduce me?"
"Xu Huanshan, the husband of my good friend Gu Jia."
When he heard that he was the husband of Wang Manni's good friend, the smile on Liang Zhenxian's face became brighter. He stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, my name is Liang Zhenxian. Nice to meet you."
Wang Lidong reached out and shook hands with Liang Zhenxian, the king of the sea. After a few words of greeting, he declined Liang Zhenxian's invitation to take him back to the city. He had no interest in making light bulbs.
Moreover, Liang Zhenxian is as virtuous as the people in Hong Kong. Although he hides it well, he will show a sense of superiority from time to time.
It made him a little unhappy.
After leaving the terminal, I hailed a taxi, checked the time, it was around three in the afternoon, and told the driver to drive to Jiamei Fireworks Company.
After waiting for the bus to start, Wang Lidong took out his mobile phone and made a video call with Xiao Xianxian. They chatted along the way and broadcast live broadcasts of the scenery of the Pearl from time to time.
When they arrived at the company, a yellow shadow came to his feet, and Tinkerbell yelled "Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
This heartless man, he has been away for more than half a month
He picked up 'Tinker Bell', oh, it was at least three kilograms heavier. He stroked his fur and it was shiny. It seemed that he was living a happy life these days.
After carrying 'Tinker Bell' into the office, his secretary Youyou found him and reported the general situation of the company these days. Finally, he added, "Mr. Gu will come to the company every other day."
Wang Lidong nodded, "I understand. Please call all department managers and there will be a meeting in the conference room in ten minutes."
Ten minutes later, he walked into the company conference room, said hello to everyone, and when everyone was there, he held a brief meeting.
Financial manager Xu Shenghui reported, "Mr. Xu, we have received a total of 3 accounts in the past ten days. On the 17th, Dingsheng Trading Company received 4.86 million yuan. On the 18th and 23rd, the sales department retailed fireworks totaling 270,000 yuan."
In terms of expenses, office expenses are 650,000 yuan. Sister Jia borrowed 250,000 yuan the day before yesterday, and now there is still 4.38 million yuan in the company account."
Wang Lidong nodded, and then looked at the sales manager. Zhao Zhisheng immediately reported the sales situation in the past ten days. There were no new orders in terms of fireworks orders, but in the wedding and birthday banquet market, he received 2 orders in ten days.
The orders include one for RMB 90,000 and one for RMB 18, and there are two more orders that have been almost negotiated. It is estimated that the total sales volume will be 30,000 yuan. "Mr. Xu, the market for wedding and birthday banquets has great potential. If we go all out to develop it,
, the sales volume should not be smaller than that of the fireworks market, but it needs to increase manpower, the salesperson’s reimbursement quota for car and phone bills is too small, and the logistics can’t keep up.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Lidong thought for a moment and said, "There are a total of 8 districts and counties in Mingzhu that can set off fireworks. We will recruit 2 more salesmen, plus the current two, and one person will do it."
In two districts and counties, the telephone bill has been raised to 200 yuan per month, and the fares will be reimbursed and the logistics aspect will be temporarily overcome. We will allocate special cars after the business volume increases."
The itinerary manager handed over a document, "Mr. Xu, this is the design plan for the new office."
Wang Lidong took it and looked through it, frowning slightly. The area of several offices was a bit large, especially his office, which was 40 square meters. He also added a fish tank at the entrance of the company with the sign 'Feng Shui Formation' on it.
No need to ask, it must have been Gu Jia's idea. He took a pen and revised the design. All offices were reduced in half, and the Feng Shui array and a few other bells and whistles were crossed out.
After the design, administration, and human resources departments finished reporting their work, the time came to five o'clock. Wang Lidong announced the adjournment of the meeting and returned home from get off work.
When the father-in-law saw his son-in-law coming home, he put down the newspaper in his hand and said, "He's back. How are your parents?"
Wang Lidong hugged his son who rushed up to him, kissed him twice, and said hello to his father-in-law, "The situation is not good. My mother is still living in the hospital. Dad, where is Gu Jia?"
My father-in-law said, "Jiajia has been busy with the dessert shop recently. Please give Jiajia a call."
Wang Lidong put down his son and dialed Gu Jia's number on his mobile phone. After two rings, the call was connected, "Hello, Gu Jia."
There was a sound of electric saws, and Gu Jia came outside the house with the phone in hand and said, "Hey, hubby, have you gotten off the plane?"
"I have already got home."
"I'm at the dessert shop and will be back in half an hour."
After he hung up the phone, he took out several gifts from the suitcase, including his father-in-law's sheepskin jacket, his son's kangaroo puppet toy, Sister Chen's wool blanket, and Gu Jia's is a set of color changing stones.
'jewelry
After almost an hour, the food on the dinner table was a little cold, and Gu Jia finally returned home.
Seeing that the gift was colorful stone jewelry, Gu Jia liked it very much. The family sat down and chatted while eating. Wang Lidong changed the contents of his trip to Australia beyond recognition. In summary, he took care of his mother in the hospital at night and was busy during the day.
Trying to find sellers for the ranch and house.
After Gu Jia asked about Xu's mother's situation, she became concerned about the situation of the ranch and the house, "How much can it be sold for?"
Wang Lidong swallowed the rice in his mouth and said, "The house can be sold for one million, but the ranch is in some trouble. There are too many farms hit by the disaster this time, and many farmers can't stand it anymore. There are listings everywhere.
There are not many people viewing the ranch for sale, and the highest price is only A$450,000.”
Gu Jia looked surprised and said, "So low?"
Father Xu on the side asked, "How much did it cost to buy the ranch?"
"A$2.08 million."
“Not even 30% off?”
Wang Lidong said helplessly, "This flood has destroyed all pastures and facilities. If we want to raise cattle and sheep again, we need to replant pastures, repair irrigation and sprinkler systems, and buy a large number of farm tools. The total amount is estimated to be
It’s going to be millions.”
Gu Jia asked, "What about the insurance? It's been almost two months, and the insurance company's compensation hasn't been paid yet?"
Wang Lidong sighed and said, "We are still wrangling. The insurance company said that the flood was mainly caused by the ocean and was not covered by the claim. The farmers are preparing to join forces to file a lawsuit with the insurance company."
He didn't want to talk more about this aspect, so the topic turned to the dessert house. Gu Jia immediately talked about the dessert house with excitement. In her vision, the dessert house would become an afternoon leisure place for ladies in the entire Junyue Mansion community.
Venue, "Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Yu, and Mrs. Qian all agreed that my dessert house would be the first choice for future gatherings or small activities. By the way, last week, Mrs. Yu's husband won the right to operate the Changzhou Animation Valley Theme Park.
My wife promised to help with the project. If it goes well, our company can get another big deal. Next year our company’s turnover will reach 20 million, and the annual profit will reach 4 million."
"Wife, thank you for your hard work. Our family is getting better and better because of you." Wang Lidong raised his glass and said to his son, "Ziyan, let's toast mom together and thank her for her contribution to this family."
The dedication and hard work.”
Ziyan picked up the juice, raised the glass happily and said, "Mom is the best. Mom is the best."
Gu Jia smiled and clinked glasses with the family. After a few words of modesty, she said to Wang Lidong, "Huan Shan, there is something I want to discuss with you."
Wang Lidong picked up a piece of white chopped chicken and dipped it in the seasoning, "Wife, tell me."
"I want to enroll Ziyan in three interest classes."
