Chapter 219 Buying land and cooperating (14 chapters still owed)
Wang Yewei took Huang Ying to his place. Xia Zekai saw that there was no one in the office. Thinking about what happened just now, he took his mobile phone and found Zhang Xu's phone number in the address book.
The "beep" sound rang for a while, and Zhang Xu answered the phone. He looked very happy: "Brother Xia, ask me if you have any new business."
Zhang Xu is now very polite to Xia Zekai. From the first day he came to work in the store, Xia Zekai sent him some business. Until now, Xia Zekai has given him some small business piecemeal every month.
In his opinion, Brother Xia was taking care of him, which made him always feel that Xia Zekai was a really good person.
Xia Zekai didn't understand where his happiness came from, but he still said with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, I have something to do here, and after thinking about it, I have to ask you for help."
"Brother Xia, just say it, I promise you won't say anything." Zhang Xu almost slapped his chest to confirm.
"Well, Xiao Zhang, I now want to buy a piece of land to build my own factory. Can you help me find a suitable piece of land." Xia Zekai asked softly.
Zhang Xu: "..."
He couldn't react on the spot. When he heard it, he felt that these words were shocking. Xia Zekai wanted to buy land?
"Brother Xia, it's true, land is not cheap. As far as I know, the cheapest one starts at more than one million," Zhang Xu said.
Xia Zekai told him firmly: "Just help me find it, and I will give you every penny of the money you have to pay."
"Okay, let me try!" Zhang Xu really agreed.
After putting down the phone, Xia Zekai held the phone with a black screen and thought thoughtfully: "That store has a lot of energy."
But he doesn't need to think about this. He spends money to find someone to do the job. It's that simple.
"If you think about it this way, Huang Ying has to hurry up and ask her to produce two renderings. I'll talk to Boss Zheng as soon as possible next week and try to produce the product as soon as possible." Xia Zekai thought in his mind.
He was thinking about going to see Zheng Ruilin next week. Who knew that guy was more anxious than he was, and he called him directly.
Xia Zekai looked at Zheng Ruilin's name flashing on his phone, thought for a moment, and answered the call: "Hello, Boss Zheng!"
"Oh, Boss Xia, I'm not good at all. I'm just waiting for your rice to be put into the pot, but there has been no movement for several days. If there is no more rice, my place will be full of dirt." Zheng Ruilin.
The man in his forties began to complain.
Xia Zekai laughed when he heard this: "Yeah, don't worry, Boss Zheng, I will bring the renderings here no later than next Monday, and then go and talk to Boss Zheng face to face."
"Okay, okay, Boss Xia, I'm waiting for you." Zheng Ruilin emphasized again.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been so anxious, but there was really nothing he could do. Most of Ruilin Plastic's existing businesses were not easy to do as the overall market slumped.
Zheng Ruilin learned from the experience and felt that only by completely changing the company's current model can he find a new way out.
Xia Zekai's new business is a glimmer of hope for him.
For this reason, it doesn’t matter even if the initial profit is smaller.
After the two agreed, they hung up the phone.
Xia Zekai couldn't help but laugh when he thought about Zheng Ruilin's eagerness to get business from him.
"Then Huang Ying must be hired as soon as possible." Xia Zekai was the first to think of this.
Thinking about the two designs drawn by Huang Ying, Xia Zekai felt confident.
But for a formal one, you must strive for excellence and design the dimensions well. These are no joke.
In the afternoon, when Xia Zekai went to pick up his daughter at the entrance of Qiyun Kindergarten, he accidentally spotted an acquaintance.
"Brother Qu, why are you here?" Xia Zekai was quite surprised to see Pan Qin and her husband Qu Liangping.
Qu Liangping pointed to the kindergarten and said, "What else can you do? Come and pick up my son from school. Brother Xia, this is the first time we have met here."
"Then why didn't I see you in the morning?" Xia Zekai was quite puzzled.
Qu Liangping said embarrassedly: "I'm very ashamed. It's my first time to send him to school. Xiaochao was too busy, and I didn't grasp the time well. I was late when I sent him here."
"That's it!" Xia Zekai understood.
He asked: "Brother Qu, has Sister Pan been discharged from the hospital?"
"It will take another two days. Fan Chao and his grandma are watching in the hospital. She is recovering well now. I'm thinking that I can't just let Fan Chao play. I'd better send him to school first."
"Well, I'm just tired. Brother Qu has to run back and forth." Xia Zekai said.
Qu Liangping looked at Xia Zekai and sighed with emotion: "Only when I really come to see you off, I understand how difficult it is for you, Brother Xia, to come to see you off every day these past few months!"
"Brother Qu, let's stop bragging each other. When Sister Pan is discharged from the hospital, I will treat you to the best meal together." Xia Zekai said.
"Okay, I remembered that you said you were going to the best hotel in Qicheng to invite you." Qu Liangping also reminded him specifically.
Knowing that Xia Zekai was not short of money now, his words were more ridiculing.
When the time came, Xia Zekai picked up Yatou and Tongtong who had come out a step ahead. He wanted to ask Qu Liangping: "Brother Qu, when will you move to Century Garden?"
"It's September, it's only been two months since the renovation was completed, and it's not very popular yet," Qu Liangping said.
Xia Zekai remembered it.
After holding Yatou and Tongtong's little hands all the way back to the community, the two girls were sweating. Neither of them wanted to play outside. Xia Zekai gave them a bath in advance and put on their clothes.
Clean clothes.
After washing them both, Xia Zekai saw someone already cutting vegetables in the kitchen. He opened the door and saw that it was his wife.
"You came back early today." Xia Zekai was still a little surprised.
Luo Xiyun rolled her eyes at him and said, "Let's get off work as usual. You play with them for a while, and I'll give them some noodles."
Xia Zekai played with the two girls for more than 20 minutes. Luo Xiyun prepared tomato and egg noodles, and fried a yam and fried meat slices for them to mix with rice.
Time has passed among trivial things. This week has passed.
…
Monday the 27th!
That morning, Xia Zekai took Huang Ying's three-day refinement of the design and called his old accountant Sun Guoqiang to go to Ruilin Plastic together.
It's a bit funny to say that the old man Zheng Ruilin couldn't wait to call him this morning.
As Sun Guoqiang drove the car, he also reminded Xia Zekai: "Boss, I really think you should consider buying another car. At least it should be of the level of a Mercedes-Benz, BMW, or Audi. People will know at a glance that we are rich.
"
"This car can't drive out at all. At some critical moments, it still can't hold up the scene," he said.
Xia Zekai glanced at him sideways: "I just know how to buy it, but where can I get the money? Give it to me?"
Sun Guoqiang really didn't want to talk to him anymore. He thought it would be boring for you to talk like this.
Following Xia Zekai's instructions, the car unknowingly drove to the entrance of the 'Ruilin Plastic' factory.
The old man Zheng who was looking at the door was still the same old man Xia Zekai met last time. Old man Zheng's memory was not bad. He kept saying: "I know you, the young man who came with Mr. Li last time."
"Well, I was invited by your Mr. Zheng's phone call today to come over to discuss business," Xia Zekai said.
Old Man Zheng knew that he was not lying. Mr. Zheng had just called to tell him about this, so he waved him in.
But looking at the van Xia Zekai was sitting in, Old Man Zheng thought in his mind: "Isn't this big boss too poor to drive a shabby van when he goes out?"
He had doubts in his mind, but he didn't say them out. He thought that when Mr. Zheng came home at night, he would tell him about the situation in person, so as not to let Mr. Zheng not know about being deceived.
Xia Zekai didn't know that he was being suspected. He took the renderings and led Sun Guoqiang all the way into the office and up to the third floor.
When he saw Zheng Ruilin, he saw Xia Zekai and the others coming in. He quickly poured a cup of tea and said, "I just brewed this. Boss Xia has a try."
Xia Zekai picked up the cup and took a sip, knowing that this tea was not cheap.
Seeing Xia Zekai's calm demeanor, Zheng Ruilin became anxious and asked, "Boss Xia, have you brought the drawings here today?"
"Well, I've brought it with me. I'll show it to Boss Zheng right away so you can give me a quote." Xia Zekai said.
"I still have to arrange publicity in advance." Xia Zekai is also in a hurry now.
After Zheng Ruilin took over the renderings from Xia Zekai, the more he looked at them, the more he felt that the pictures were really clever and could be understood at a glance.
It's not comparable to the sketch that Xia Zekai and the others showed him when they came here last time.
This gap is quite big!
"Boss Xia, please wait a moment. I will arrange for someone to calculate our cost range and give you a quotation." Zheng Ruilin said.
Ruilin Plastic is much better than Jingtong Food Factory. They have their own professional financial department and professional financial personnel. Unlike Jingtong Food Factory, there is only one Sun Guoqiang who can barely make up the numbers in the financial department.
While waiting, Zheng Ruilin kept pouring tea for Xia Zekai and Sun Guoqiang. He also said that no matter whether the negotiation was successful or not, they would have a meal together at noon.
Instead of talking about business and relationships, let’s talk about making friends.
This reminded Xia Zekai of the time when he went to the plastic factory in Zhoucheng to prepare for a meeting with Boss Huang Zhongwang. He made two phone calls from beginning to end, but the meeting was forgotten and he was immediately ignored.
.
Xia Zekai is still a bit petty. He still remembers the scene when he was rejected by Boss Huang on the phone.
In comparison, Zheng Ruilin, who is also the big boss of the factory, has a much better attitude.
It took almost an hour before someone sent Zheng Ruilin a piece of paper and then he left.
Zheng Ruilin opened it and took a look at it, then handed it to Xia Zekai: "Boss Xia, this is an approximate cost calculated by our company. You should also take a look."
"If you think the price is right, we will sign the contract. Anyway, I have set the lowest price here." He emphasized again.
