Looking at William and his entourage, Wang Xuelia felt very conflicted.
There was no news about William and the others before, and Wang Xuelia was also worried that this project would become corrupt again.
After all, he has highlighted this investment project in his work report. If it turns out to be bad, where will he put his face?
Now William has brought someone here again, and this time he is very sincere.
However, during the communication, William also revealed that they were indeed more interested in acquiring a large factory, and according to William and his team, the larger the production scale, the better.
But the problem is that there is only one largest agricultural and sideline products processing factory in Yiling City. In addition, there are several other much smaller ones.
Even Wang Xueliang knows that Xuemeng Food Factory will definitely not sell it. Besides, its annual sales are more than 8 billion, and William and his company only invested 300 million US dollars, equivalent to 2 billion yuan, which is still far behind.
When Wang Xueliang, William and his team had an in-depth discussion on this issue, both sides came and went, each putting forward their own opinions.
Regarding the circled land, William did not say anything about his next move.
But Wang Xuelia also showed his tough attitude. He also told William and his party that if the land continued to be vacant and no construction started, according to relevant legal provisions, they would take it back after the prescribed time limit was exceeded.
This aspect is clearly stipulated in the legal provisions, and was clearly stated when we first discussed it.
This time, the negotiations between the two parties broke up somewhat unhappily.
But Wang Xuelia knew that since William and his party were here, there would definitely be follow-up.
As for William and his team, who had always wanted to acquire an existing factory, Wang Xuelia actually no longer wanted to participate in the follow-up matters.
He felt that if he continued to get involved, it would be a big trouble for him.
It's not worth it if you get yourself involved because of this.
And when he heard that Cao Shujie and his sister were getting married, Wang Xuelia was also wondering whether he should arrange for someone to go there then.
There are not many private enterprises with annual sales of more than 8 billion in Yiling City. What's more important is that the network of relationships behind Cao Shujie is intricate.
Although the relationship between them is not so harmonious, superficial things still need to be done.
…
Regarding the fact that William and his party came to Yiling City to meet Wang Xuelia again, they also did not hide it from Cao Shujie. However, Cao Shujie has now understood that, and on the surface he no longer takes the other party seriously. In private, Cao Shujie still arranges for people to continue.
Pay attention to the movements of this group of people.
Cao Shujie was also very curious about what would happen to the hundreds of acres of land circled on the outskirts of the city that would be dealt with in the end.
Cao Shujie strategically looked down on the opponent, but tactically valued the opponent.
But for Cao Shujie at the moment, the most important thing is that his sister hurry up and get married, and other things can be put aside.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law have been back for three days. With the help of the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law these days, it is faster to prepare the dowry for his sister.
During this period, Cao Shujie also went to the city.
But in the past few days, many people have called Cao Shujie and asked about his sister's marriage.
Many leaders in Pingyuan County, including some leaders in the city, were also surprised by this. He did not expect that they would pay attention to such a small matter in his own family.
Some people also expressed on the phone that they would come over on the wedding day.
But there were also people who politely told Cao Shujie on the phone that they were going on a business trip recently, where to study, etc.?
Use a very apologetic tone to tell Cao Shujie that others will not be able to get through when the time comes, but he will let others express their feelings.
Cao Shujie did not expect this result.
After he told his parents about this, Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo were a little at a loss.
They don't know what to do?
My daughter is getting married, and a group of leaders are coming. How should they receive her?
"Shujie, why don't you tell them and forget it." Cao Jianguo said to his son.
Wang Yuelan didn't stop her this time, she had the same intention.
Moreover, Wang Yuelan also realized that it was her daughter who was getting married this time, but this favor would have to be returned by her son in the future. Wang Yuelan felt that this was not right.
But Cao Shujie said to them: "They have already said they are coming, so it is not good to call them now to stop them from coming. Just come when you come, that is, you will have more pairs of chopsticks for eating."
When Cao Jianguo heard what his son said, he added: "Then you have to tell your sister quickly and ask them to book more tables. If there are not enough by then, it will not be a good idea to add tables temporarily."
"Okay." Cao Shujie called his sister Cao Huifang.
Cao Huifang was shopping with Tong Jiayi in the city when she received a call from her brother.
Cao Huifang and Tong Jiayi were also dumbfounded when her brother called and said that on the day of their wedding, many leaders from the county and city would come to attend the wedding banquet.
I have never enjoyed this kind of treatment.
But they understood that those people came here just for the sake of his brother Cao Shujie and had nothing to do with them themselves.
After hanging up the phone, Cao Huifang said to Tong Jiayi: "We have to book a few more tables."
"Let's make a reservation. I'll call the hotel right away. It just so happened that when I made the reservation with them, I told them to reserve a few more tables." Tong Jiayi was a little lucky.
When he first discussed this matter with the hotel, he actually considered that there were too many variables with his uncle Cao Shujie.
He doesn't know many people in Yiling City, the most important ones are his colleagues in the factory.
He knew how many relatives came over from home, but the only thing that made him feel uncertain was his uncle's personal connections.
Just like the leaders of the city and county who are coming this time, they all came because of their uncle Cao Shujie. Could it be said that he could not receive them?
"Otherwise, we can book 10 more tables and we'll see what happens then." Tong Jiayi said to Cao Huifang.
Cao Huifang was a little hesitant, but didn't say much. In fact, what her brother just said on the phone was very vague and did not give a specific number of people.
They are now booking 10 more tables at once. Will they be able to use them in the end?
"It doesn't matter. Even if we don't use it by then, we can return it on the same day. It's just a penalty of 200 yuan." Tong Jiayi said this.
This small amount of money is a trivial matter to both of them, but if there are not enough tables that day, it will be a shame for the uncle and brother.
Cao Huifang didn't say any more. She was still thinking that if there were fewer people than they thought, they would let people sit around.
It's not a big deal.
…
For many people in Yiling City, they don't care about Cao Shujie's sister's marriage, and even it is too far away for them.
But they are concerned about another thing, the foreign investor coming to invest in their city, and everyone is discussing how much higher the price will be for purchasing their fruits after the new factory starts production.
There are also people who have been hoping that this factory will be built as soon as possible so that they can go there for job interviews and enjoy higher treatment from foreign companies.
But as we chatted, many people found that there was nothing more to say.
I heard people say that there has been no construction in the area that was circled to build a factory in the past few months, and no foreigners have gone there.
This result stunned those who had been waiting impatiently.
Even the media that had been promoting the investment of about 2 billion by the Foreign Chamber of Commerce have collectively lost their voices.
It's like this thing came to an abrupt end, leaving many people at a loss as to what to do.
However, after a few months of silence, some media began to report on the movements of this foreign investor.
And the news released this time is even more explosive. According to the content of the news, the other party will directly acquire a large factory and start production in the shortest possible time. And according to the news released by the media, the other party is already in contact with several factories.
This makes those who are looking forward to foreign investment feel happy again.
They just wonder, what will happen to the enclosed land if the other party acquires other factories?
However, this is not something ordinary people think about at all. Many people simply want to make more money by selling the fruits they grow.
There are more people who want to work in this factory and earn more wages and bonuses.
In the deep processing of agricultural and sideline products, the company with the best remuneration in the entire Yiling City is naturally the Xuemeng Food Factory located in Qingshi Town. However, the Xuemeng Food Factory is now not recruiting easily, which also makes it difficult for those who want to find a good job.
People at work are in trouble.
…
On the morning of the 29th, for most people, today was no different from any other day.
As the end of the month approaches, many people are looking forward to the end of this month so that they can receive next month's salary.
But for Cao Shujie and his family, today is very busy.
Tomorrow is the wedding day of Cao Shujie and his sister Cao Huifang.
The preliminary work has been done and we are just waiting for this day to arrive.
Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo set off early this morning to go to Yiling City to help their daughter.
Cao Shujie did not join in. He wanted to go there early tomorrow to avoid the hassle of going back and forth.
Moreover, it is more than an hour's journey from Caojiazhuang to Yiling City, which is not very far either.
Cao Shujie, his eldest brother, and his second brother were chatting around grandpa at the moment.
The three brothers formed a semi-circle, surrounded Grandpa, and talked about their experiences from all over the world.
Due to poor health, Cao Zhenghu has not gone out with his grandson in the past two years.
Listening to the descriptions of his three grandsons, Cao Zhenghu seemed to be swimming with them. The wrinkles on his wrinkled face seemed to have smoothed out, revealing a kind smile.
He kept smiling and said nothing, and Cao Shubin even suggested: "Grandpa, when Fangfang gets married, you can follow me to Anyi to stay for two days."
"If you don't want to go, what are you going to do? It's just fine at home." Cao Zhenghu shook his head and refused.
In his words, he is aware of his current physical condition.
When Cao Shuxin was thinking about saying a few words of advice, Mengmeng ran in from outside and saw her father and uncle. The second uncle was talking with the old grandfather. Her eyes turned very fast and she was eager to say: "Grandpa, I recommend it."
You go out and play."
Cao Zhenghu nodded after hearing this: "Okay, let's go."
He quite likes to hang out with Mengmeng and likes to take Mengmeng out for a walk.
It's just that he is not able to walk around on his own like before. Now he gets tired after not walking very far and has to use a wheelchair.
"Dad, please give in, I want to take grandpa out to play." Mengmeng said.
She waved her little hands and started to chase people away.
Cao Shujie had nothing to do with his daughter, so he quickly stepped aside.
When brothers Cao Shubin and Cao Shuxin saw it, they both laughed happily.
They also find this little niece quite interesting.
Seeing Mengmeng pushing her grandfather out, Cao Shubin said, "Have you noticed that Mengmeng is quite sensible now?"
Cao Shuxin nodded and said, "That's for sure. Mengmeng has grown up now and is a big child."
"Shujie, are you just going to let Mengmeng go to school here in Qingshi Town? Have you considered sending her out?" asked the eldest brother Cao Shubin.
Cao Shujie didn't hesitate at all and told his elder brother: "Let's talk about it later. She is still too young now. When she is older, if she likes to go to school elsewhere, it will not be too late to make arrangements then."
"My wife has been teaching her to learn other things, and she usually learns a lot." Cao Shujie said to his eldest brother and second brother.
It’s not that Mengmeng didn’t learn anything, on the contrary, Mengmeng learned more than most children of the same age.
This is thanks to his wife Cheng Xiaolin.
No matter how busy she is, Cheng Xiaolin will always take time to study with Mengmeng.
Brothers Cao Shubin and Cao Shuxin nodded and didn't mention it further.
The wind swayed the branches, the sun gradually rose into the sky, and Mengmeng was sweating profusely as she pushed her grandfather back.
After Cao Shujie saw it, she went over to help her daughter. Mengmeng even excitedly described to her father where she had taken her grandfather for a stroll this morning.
After finishing speaking, Mengmeng turned to look at her father, waiting for him to praise her.
Cao Shujie gave his daughter a thumbs up sign at the right time: "Cute and awesome."
"Huh!" Mengmeng snorted a little proudly.
Lunch at home.
They have to leave early tomorrow morning. They didn't go anywhere in the afternoon.
However, Cao Jianlong came to see Cao Shujie in the afternoon, meaning that they also wanted to go to Yiling City to attend Cao Huifang's wedding tomorrow.
Moreover, Cao Jianlong specially said to Cao Shujie: "There is no one else but the people from the seven village committees of Caojiazhuang, Zhujiazhuang, Taodong Village, and Qingyun Village. If there are others, please wait for Fangfang and others to come back together."
Bar."
Cao Jianlong also knew that Cao Shujie was not greedy for this, so Cao Jianlong also told Cao Shujie about this matter.
"Uncle Long, how are you going?" Cao Shujie asked him.
Then I heard Cao Jianlong say: "I have arranged a bus, and we will take the bus there tomorrow morning."
"Then what if I don't agree?" Cao Shujie asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Jianlong was not angry at all. He smiled and said, "I'll pretend I never came to ask you. We'll leave by ourselves tomorrow morning."
"Haha!" Cao Shujie had nothing to say.
He looked at Cao Jianlong seriously: "Uncle Long, thank you!"
Cao Jianlong also laughed, and he said to Cao Shujie sincerely: "Shujie, what are you thanking? To be honest, compared with the things you have done for us, we are just running errands with our mouths open, forget it.
What."
"Besides, Fangfang's marriage is also a major event for our Cao family village."
"If we don't send more of our own people to give him a stronger momentum, if her husband's family bullies her in the future, it will look like none of us are the same. Don't you think so?" Cao Jianlong said seriously. (End of Chapter)
