"What a coincidence, I made a special trip to visit you today." Xu Erlong said with a smile, passing the net bag in his hand: "I went to the capital this time, and I brought back some specialties from the capital."
Mr. Xu smiled and said: "Erlong, you are too polite."
"How can you call this polite?" Xu Erlong said with a smile: "Speaking of which, your surname is Xu and mine is also Xu. We were a family five hundred years ago, but I have always regarded you as my eldest brother."
"You, you..." Mr. Xu smiled and pointed at him with his finger, accepting the small gift.
"Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I'm treating you today. Let's have a drink together." Xu Erlong invited.
"Noon, noon time." Mr. Xu agreed.
"It's settled, I'll wait for you at noon." Xu Erlong said.
He went to Niu Yishou's place, first booked a private room, arranged some lunch dishes, and especially asked for two bottles of good wine.
It was almost noon, Xu Erlong waited by the bank, waiting for President Xu, and they came to Niu Yishou's place to eat together.
After three rounds of drinking, Xu Erlong's topic also came to the loan he discussed last time.
"Erlong, it's really difficult to get a loan for such a large amount of money," Mr. Xu said, holding the wine glass, with a troubled expression on his face: "You told me at that time that you wanted a loan of 2.5 million, and I replied
I have been thinking about this issue repeatedly. If the amount is smaller, it will be easier to operate. As a result, I came to you and said that you went to the capital..."
"Then how much can you lend me at most?" Xu Erlong asked.
"One million." Mr. Xu gritted his teeth.
This is already the maximum amount he can strive for.
"Besides, we need to provide some collateral..." said Governor Xu.
Don't mortgage such a large amount, it's too risky.
This one million, compared to the 2.5 million Xu Erlong mentioned at the beginning, is already cut in half.
However, Xu Erlong also felt satisfied. It was better than not giving him a loan.
He can first get this loan to solve the department store's capital chain problem, or he can open a leather shoe factory.
He might even consider taking over the factory building he looked at earlier.
When the time comes, we can use the leather shoe factory as collateral to get a loan.
"Okay, one million, just one million." Xu Erlong agreed: "I will prepare what materials and certificates are needed when I go back, and then submit them to you."
"I definitely need your commune certificate, and then you also need these materials..." President Xu carefully explained the necessary precautions to Xu Erlong.
Xu Erlong took out his notebook and wrote down the information carefully, so as not to miss something and have to worry about it again and again.
"Come, drink, drink." Xu Erlong held the wine glass and clinked glasses with President Xu again: "Thank you for supporting my work."
"Support each other, support each other." said Mr. Xu.
Xu Erlong needed a loan from him to open a factory, and he also needed people like Xu Erlong to complete his loan quota. Of course, he could also complete the sales quota of some treasury bills.
After having enough wine and food, Xu Erlong sent Governor Xu away and began to prepare the materials.
To prepare the materials, you still have to go back to the village to get the certificate.
Xu Erlong only hopes that ID cards will be implemented soon.
Once you have your ID card, many things will be much easier. You won't have to go back to the team leader to get a letter of introduction and so on.
It’s fast to think about it, and it will be implemented next year.
This time he went back to do something. Although it was the responsibility of the village cadres to write letters of introduction, Xu Erlong was too embarrassed to go back empty-handed.
I always have to bring some small gifts back, it's more or less a token of affection.
Xu Erlong took two bags of candies and half a catty of tea as souvenirs and returned to the village to find Huang Zhengnong.
Huang Zhengnong was also busy during this time. Yang Limin and his brothers made a lot of money by selling chickens and ducks. After making money, the first thing they did was to go back to their hometown in the countryside to build a house.
This is also the first thought that country people have when they get rich.
Don't people live their whole lives just to earn a comfortable place?
Besides, the old houses in the past are indeed dilapidated. When it rains lightly, there will be small leaks in the house, and when it rains heavily, there will be big leaks. Children who lived through that era can all remember that when the roof leaked, they would hold a basin and
The scene of Lao'er fetching water from everywhere.
Therefore, after you have money, building a new house is a top priority.
This newly built house will naturally require help from the villagers, who will take care of food and drink, and get some wages.
As a stonemason, Xu Dongsheng was naturally among them. He was also the main force in building the house and laying the foundation, so he naturally sat in the upper position at the moment.
Xu Erlong didn't expect that he would encounter such a situation when he returned to the village.
The moment their eyes met, no one paid any attention to the other.
When Old Man Yang saw Xu Erlong, he took the initiative to greet him and asked Xu Erlong to come over and have two glasses of wine.
Yang Limin also smiled and took the initiative to pass the cigarette to Xu Erlong and chatted enthusiastically with Xu Erlong.
Although there have been unpleasant experiences in the past, they are in the past, right?
Besides, now that I have been doing business abroad, my horizons have broadened a lot. Now that I have no hatred towards my fellow villagers, I naturally don’t need to hold them grudges.
Xu Erlong chatted for a few words and did not sit down to eat.
Huang Zhengnong saw that he was looking for him, so he squeezed out of the crowd and took Xu Erlong home.
After chatting for a few words, Xu Erlong explained his purpose of coming and asked for supporting documents.
Huang Zhengnong followed the request and gave Xu Erlong the certification documents.
"Uncle, who is responsible for repairing Yang Limin's house?" Xu Erlong asked.
"Well, I just hired a few bricklayers from neighboring villages to be the masters, and the other people in the village helped each other." Huang Zhengnong answered.
"If I want to build a house, will it be the same group of people?" Xu Erlong asked.
"That should be the case." Huang Zhengnong replied: "Everyone only knows that these masters can repair houses."
The houses that people in their village live in are almost all old-fashioned houses with earthen walls, and the partitions of each room inside are made of bamboo and mud. Even if they are demolished later, the structure of the house will not be affected.
Xu Erlong, on the other hand, was thinking that he wanted to build a house on the homestead, and he didn't know whether the skills of these bricklayers were good.
Don't create a shoddy project.
He wants to build a large restaurant. Now it can be used as the business premises of a leather shoe factory. After the expressway is opened in the future, it can be converted into a restaurant or other places.
"If you want to repair your house, I will talk to these masters so that we can arrange the time." Huang Zhengnong said.
"No rush." Xu Erlong replied.
If the craftsmanship is not up to standard, or the relevant materials are not good enough, then the house will become dilapidated and there will be trouble: "I'll take a look and then talk about it."
After receiving the certification materials, Xu Erlong said goodbye to Huang Zhengnong and rode his bicycle back to the county seat.
