Three days later, in my office at Taihe Real Estate.
"Hassan, give me a full glass of water."
I looked at the computer and shouted at the door, but I didn't expect that it was Zhang Ben who opened the door and walked in. He took a cup, filled the water and put it in front of me.
"If you're not in the ocean, what are you doing here?"
"Haha, I miss you." Zhang Ben bared his teeth and sat down opposite me.
"...If you have something to say, don't get too close." I replied with a sideways glance.
Zhang Ben looked at me, rubbed his palms, thought for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Brother, I want to do something."
"Hey, I feel like my burden is lighter. OK, I agree. You can also clean up the ocean." I said without hesitation.
"Brother, I'm not making trouble with you, I'm just talking about business." Zhang Ben scratched his head and said seriously.
"What the hell, I, Lao Xian and the others are reaching out to the ocean and demanding independence from me." I glanced at Zhang Ben and asked casually.
"It has nothing to do with that. I just think there is a good opportunity and want to try it. I am also interested in the ocean and take it as my main business. But if you don't agree, then forget it." Zhang Ben said weakly.
"What industry?" I said calmly while looking at the computer and typing on the keyboard.
"...coal mine." Zhang Ben replied.
"Do you understand?" I asked directly.
"I don't really understand, but I want to give it a try. Just do it slowly. If you do it well, isn't it a way to make money?" Zhang Ben didn't brag and said truthfully.
"What do you need me to do, haha." I licked my lips and looked at the computer screen nervously, practicing CF marksmanship.
"I need some economic blood." Zhang Ben lowered his head shyly and said.
"Okay, I agree. You can negotiate with Lao Xian about the money. I'll tell him later that the company has been using money recently. It can't come out with more money. It's probably only three to five hundred at most. If it's not enough, you can do it yourself." Let's find a way." I was silent for a minute, and then I replied crisply.
"Leadership means leadership, grandeur." Zhang Ben immediately started filming. His quality in this area has improved a lot recently.
"Go and play."
I waved my hand and said something back. Zhang Ben immediately said a few words to me with joy on his face, then opened the door and left.
After he left, I took off my headset and rubbed my temples. I no longer had the enthusiasm to play games, and I didn’t know what it felt like. There is a kind of parent who raises his children, and these children are about to leave their side and go to college. The feeling of entering society is both joyful and lonely.
Zhang Ben is the first, but he will definitely not be the last. Jin Beibei, the eldest prince, and Hassan beside me will gradually have conversations like today's with me, and I can't refuse.
…
Jixi is the largest producer of coal resources in our province. In the Northeast, wherever coal is burned, you can see Jixi's coal. It is an administrative district level and a prefecture-level city. But compared to the area and jurisdiction of H City, Jixi is considered It's a small city, but it has a lot of rich people. The bosses are worth over 100 million, which is no less than H City, or even more.
There once was a woman who came to H city to buy a car. When being interviewed, she once made a bold statement: "I usually ride in a Mercedes-Benz or a BMW, but the best one is the Maybach."
In this place, as long as they are owners of dilapidated trucks that drive out of the coal mining areas, they must not be underestimated. It is common to always have more than two hundred thousand dollars in the glove box.
The coal mining rights investment promotion is held every year in H City. This year, the time has not yet come, and an old man has come out to dig out coal in a daze. Therefore, the price of mining rights this year will have to go up a lot. This is also The reason why local TV stations are hyping up this old man so much is because the government must have given instructions.
Zhang Ben is always steady in everything he does and never rushes into anything. As soon as I agreed to give him money, he also started to build relationships. He took the lead in contacting the Fanjiatun Village Committee through his friends, because the higher the grassroots level, the better informed the information.
In the remaining few days, Zhang Ben drove to Fanjiatun when he had nothing to do. The friend who was responsible for introducing him to the district for the first time followed him. When he went for the second time, his friends were gone, and only Zhang Ben was left to communicate with the village committee secretary.
At first, Zhang Ben didn't mention the coal mine. Almost every other day, he would ask the village committee secretary to come out for a walk.
…
As for us, on July 18th, a groundbreaking ceremony was officially held at the old sign factory. The factory area has been surrounded by dark blue iron sheets, with large white characters printed every five meters on it, saying " XX Construction Group and other words, this is a state-owned unit, according to my opinion, I don't want to ask them to do it, but Gao Yu has said that if you don't want to hire them, you have to hire them, and the only advantage of doing this is that Gao Yu's father, it is said that today Will be on site.
The media set up under the stage and a lot of them came. This was arranged by Gao Yu. All senior executives of Taihe Real Estate attended. Twenty minutes after the meeting started, two small A6s parked at the venue.
I quickly got out of the car to greet him, and at the same time the salute roared, I walked to the red carpet and opened the car door. Inside, a middle-aged man who was less than fifty stepped out of the car, and suddenly the flashlights gathered into one.
"Hello, Mayor Gao."
I smiled and stretched out my hand, bent down, and nodded repeatedly.
"You are warriors when it comes to activating the local economy."
Mayor Gao nodded slightly at me and said softly, and I naturally replied respectfully: "As a local enterprise, it is my duty to do so."
After a few words of greeting and two minutes left for the media to play freely, the groundbreaking ceremony started. Mayor Gao put on white gloves, took a brand-new shovel, shoveled two shovels of soil, and left in a hurry.
After walking down the steps, Lao Xian said to me: "Even if I am tied to the Gao family, I feel like I am so unreasonable."
"...If you don't post it, you're a second-rate person. If you post it, you're an entrepreneur. I'm also a tutu, but what's the trick?" I lowered my head and remained silent for a long time, then replied lightly.
…
At noon the next day, Zhang Weimin read the newspaper, frowned and said to Lin Hengfa: "Why did Xiangnan go to the same place as Mayor Gao? Did you see it? Construction Engineering Group undertook the construction, and this fucking second-rate guy suddenly transformed into a You are a warrior who activates the local economy, haha."
"...It's not necessarily a good thing." Lin Hengfa replied a little sourly and doubtfully.
"Li Shuishui is still having sex with that girl Lao He." Zhang Weimin changed the subject and asked.
"Well, we two are in love." Lin Hengfa nodded.
"Hey, these young people have their own ways, hehe."
Zhang Weimin couldn't help but sigh, then rubbed his temples and said.
"Lao Zhuang, do you know about the coal mine?" Lin Hengfa suddenly asked.
"If you know this, pretend you don't know. People want to hide it from you. If you ask with a glance, everyone will be embarrassed. Just keep your eyes open." Zhang Weimin replied softly.
