Chapter 75 Investment
◎Zhao Xiangwan had a feeling that she would soon become a wealthy woman◎
As soon as Mei Qingxi and his two companions arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel, a waiter came out to greet them: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Mei? The private room has been arranged. Please follow me."
Walking across the parquet marble floor and enjoying the hotel's refreshing air-conditioning, the summer heat is swept away.
Mei Qingxi, Gu Zhixing, and Gu Zhiguang were all children of wealthy families. They followed the waiter into the Baoli Lounge naturally. After they sat down, they began to ask, "Which of you made the arrangements in advance?"
All three shook their heads.
Gu Zhixing and Gu Zhiguang looked at each other and then looked towards Mei Qingxi at the same time.
Mei Qingxi spread his hands and shook his head: "It was Xiangwan who made the reservation to dine at Four Seasons. I had no way of knowing in advance."
Gu Zhixing was a little surprised: "Did Xiangwan make the reservation? Isn't she..." He didn't finish his sentence, but knew what he meant - isn't she a rural child who just came to the big city to study in college for a year? How everyone could she arrange these in advance?
As soon as he finished speaking, waiters came in like a stream and began to place dishes on the table, laying out bowls and chopsticks, serving fruits and cold drinks. The appetizers were arranged clearly.
Gu Zhiguang stopped a waiter wearing a cheongsam and said, "Hey, I haven't ordered yet."
Today, Gu Zhiguang volunteered to treat everyone, and Mei Qingxi, who had just returned from an internship in Shenzhen, failed to win the bid.
Gu Zhiguang had a very good reason: "Last time, Zhao Xiangwan helped my buddy Jia Junnan find someone, and she helped a lot. I have never been able to find time to treat her to a meal. I must give her a chance this time. Besides, I like dealing with the police, so this time I must treat Zhao Xiangwan and her police friends."
The waiter smiled politely: "Mr. Ji has already made arrangements for seven people in total. If you have any requirements, please tell us."
President Ji arranged this? Mei Qingxi became even more curious. Why is Zhao Xiangwan so close to President Ji now? Or is it because of the face of the serious crime team?
No matter what, everything will become clear once you meet him in person.
Mei Qingxi, Gu Zhixing and Gu Zhiguang took the attitude of "make the best of it" and sat at the big round table, drinking drinks and waiting for people.
After a while, Zhao Xiangwan pushed the door open and came in. In her left hand she was holding a tall, handsome man.
Mei Qingxi's pupils shrank, he put down the glass in his hand and slowly stood up.
Gu Zhixing and Gu Zhiguang also stood up and stared blankly at the person holding hands with Zhao Xiangwan: "Xiangwan, who is he?"
It's no wonder that everyone didn't recognize Ji Zhao. Ji Jinmao protected his son very strictly. Apart from holding thank-you parties for his personal art exhibitions, he rarely appeared in public.
Mei Qingxi and her father Xu Juncai attended Ji Zhao's solo exhibition and met Ji Zhao. They were deeply impressed by this autistic genius painter who was so beautiful that he didn't look like a real person.
When he suddenly saw Ji Zhao today and saw him holding hands with Zhao Xiangwan, Mei Qingxi felt like he was hit by something in his heart and couldn't breathe due to the pain. He had originally planned to maintain a stable relationship with Zhao Xiangwan first, and then confess his love to her after he started his own business, and create a better future with her.
But now... before he could express his love for her, Zhao Xiangwan had already held hands with another man!
Ji Zhao's face was as white as jade, his eyes were as bright as stars, his white shirt was clean and fresh, he was wearing a pair of khaki pants and a pair of white sneakers, his eyebrows were curved, and he stood with a smile. His hands were well-defined and his fingers were thin, and he wrapped Zhao Xiangwan's hand in his palm, gently and intimately. With just one glance, you can see that the two of them have a tacit understanding, and there is a kind of intimacy that others cannot interfere with.
Mei Qingxi's heart was already in turmoil, but he didn't show it on his face.
【Don't panic, don't rush. I've only been away for a month and a half. They can't have deep feelings for each other no matter what. I can't panic. Blame me. I shouldn't have thought about waiting until everything is settled before expressing my feelings. Xiang Wan earlier that I love her and want to be with her. Xiang Wan is so outstanding, there must be many people who like her and pursue her. If I don't express my feelings, someone will. If I'm late, it will be a lifetime.】
After feeling frustrated, Mei Qingxi tried hard to cheer herself up.
[Don't worry, don't worry, there is still a chance. Ji Zhao has autism, which is a mental illness. Which girl is willing to marry such a man? Even if the Ji family is rich, so what? Xiang Wan is not a girl who loves money. She must be temporarily confused by Ji Jinmao's money and Ji Zhao's face. Once I slowly explain it to her, she will give up this relationship. ]
Hearing what Mei Qingxi was thinking, Zhao Xiangwan held Ji Zhao's hand tightly, took him to sit at the table, and introduced him solemnly: "This is my boyfriend, Ji Zhao."
Mei Qingxi's voice was a little dry: "Xiang Wan, when did you start dating? How come I didn't know?"
Zhao Xiangwan said calmly: "I just solved a college burglary case, and you don't know about it either."
Gu Zhixing sensed the tension between the two and quickly tried to smooth things over. He smiled and extended his hand to Ji Zhao: "Hello Ji Zhao, I'm Gu Zhixing, a civil engineering graduate and Xiang Wan's friend."
Gu Zhiguang also quickly reached out to Ji Zhao: "Hello, I'm Gu Zhiguang, a senior student majoring in architecture, and a fan of Xiang Wan."
Ji Zhao raised his eyes and looked at them. His eyes sparkled, and the two brothers were secretly amazed: Is there such a handsome boy in the world? Where did Xiang Wan find him?
Ji Zhao did not extend his hand, but simply nodded slightly, his attitude reserved and restrained.
Gu Zhixing and Gu Zhiguang had no choice but to withdraw their hands and said with a wry smile, "Ji Zhao also works in the serious crime squad?"
Zhao Xiangwan introduced: "Ji Zhao is a criminal portrait painter in the Municipal Bureau and is currently working with me."
Gu Zhixing didn't quite understand what a criminal portrait artist was, so he said "Oh". Gu Zhiguang immediately became excited: "Does our city bureau already have a criminal portrait artist? He can accurately draw portraits based on the oral descriptions of eyewitnesses, that's amazing."
As he spoke, Gu Zhiguang bowed to Ji Zhao and said, "If I need your help in the future, can you help me for Xiang Wan's sake?"
Ji Zhao turned and looked at Zhao Xiangwan.
[What help? Who is this person? ]
Zhao Xiangwan leaned close to Ji Zhao's ear and whispered, "His name is Gu Zhiguang, and he is a detective fan. Maybe in the future he will need you to paint his portrait, and then he will come to ask for your help."
【good.】
Ji Zhao nodded. Painting a portrait was a simple thing for him, as natural and easy as eating and drinking. Since they were Xiang Wan's friends, they should help each other.
When Zhao Xiangwan heard Ji Zhao's agreement, he said to Gu Zhiguang, "Okay, tell me if you have anything to say later."
Gu Zhiguang then realized that Ji Zhao had not spoken a word from beginning to end, and asked curiously: "Why doesn't he speak?" Is it arrogance, rudeness, or... some other reason?
Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Jinmao had similar attitudes and never hid anything: "Ji Zhao has a speech impediment and cannot speak. But he can hear and understand what you say."
Gu Zhiguang opened his mouth and took a long time to find his voice: "Then, how does he draw a portrait?"
Zhao Xiangwan glanced at him and said, "Do you need to use your mouth to draw a portrait?"
Gu Zhiguang noticed Zhao Xiangwan's protection of Ji Zhao and quickly changed his attitude: "Xiangwan, you are right. People with ability can shine wherever they are. As a man, why do you need to be good at talking? Just be capable!"
Mei Qingxi added: "Ji Zhao, a hyperrealist painter, a genius who held a solo exhibition at the age of fifteen, and the only son of Ji Jinmao, the president of Four Seasons Hotel, is certainly a capable person."
Gu Zhixing felt a little sour when hearing this, so he pursed his lips and didn't dare to laugh.
Gu Zhiguang was a simpleton. He didn't feel Mei Qingxi's jealousy at all. Instead, his face lit up and he stretched out his hand to shake hands with Ji Zhao: "Genius painter, you condescend to be a criminal portrait painter in the Municipal Bureau. You are an idealist and a role model for our generation."
Ji Zhao's left hand was holding Zhao Xiangwan's, and his right hand was empty. Seeing Gu Zhiguang's hand in front of him, he took a half step back and put his right hand behind his back, with a look of alienation in his expression.
Gu Zhiguang's personality is like his mother's. He can't hide things in his heart, can't hide words in his mouth, and his enthusiasm is full of gossip. When he heard that Zhao Xiangwan pioneered micro-expression behavior studies to solve cases, he admired her very much and cried to get close to her. Now that he heard that Ji Zhao is a talented painter and the son of the richest man in Hunan Province, and that such a young man with such good conditions is willing to devote himself to the cause of detective work, his admiration for her is like a surging river, which is endless.
Even if Ji Zhao ignored him, Gu Zhiguang was not discouraged. In his opinion, a capable person should be like this! The colder Ji Zhao was, the more it showed that he was capable.
Seeing Gu Zhiguang's servile look, Zhu Feipeng and He Mingyu both laughed, pulled out a chair and sat down, saying to Zhao Xiangwan, "Okay, sit down. Aren't you tired of standing and talking?"
We were all young people, so there was no need for so much formality. After hearing what Zhu Feipeng said, we sat down.
The decoration of the Baoli Hall is simple and elegant. There are fresh flowers placed in the middle of a table for ten people, and the room is filled with the fragrance of flowers, which makes people feel happy.
Before Zhao Xiangwan came, he took the initiative to call Ji Jinmao and said that Ji Zhao was going to treat several of his friends to a meal at the Four Seasons Hotel. When Ji Jinmao heard this, he immediately understood: Zhao Xiangwan was planning to bring Ji Zhao out to meet people!
Ji Jinmao was suddenly overwhelmed by the feeling of happiness that came from waiting for the clouds to clear and finally see the moon. His son had autism, but Zhao Xiangwan was willing to take the initiative to bring him out to meet friends. What did this mean? This showed that Zhao Xiangwan really liked Ji Zhao and did not dislike him.
Ji Zhao was so happy that such a girl liked him that even if Zhao Xiangwan only treated him to dinner at Four Seasons Hotel and even if she wanted to give the hotel away, Ji Jinmao wouldn't even blink an eye.
Ji Jinmao had originally given Zhao Xiangwan a black card, so she didn't have to pay for any of her expenses at the hotel. Now that she had informed him in advance, it represented trust. Therefore, Ji Jinmao instructed the kitchen to put the hotel's best dishes on the table to ensure that the guests were satisfied.
Zhao Xiangwan had been in the hospital this morning to find Fei Yongbai to understand the circumstances of the case. Due to Fei Yongbai's physical condition, the questioning was intermittent and took a long time. As soon as she sat at the table and smelled the fragrance of the food, she felt hungry and said, "Let's eat first. If there is anything, we can talk after we have eaten."
Zhu Feipeng liked Zhao Xiangwan's quickness the most. He immediately picked up his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of golden pepper and salt pork ribs with a shout of joy: "I like Four Seasons' dishes the most. They are delicious."
Gu Zhixing and Gu Zhiguang also started to work.
Only Mei Qingxi felt his stomach was bloated and he had no appetite at all.
Across the table, I could see Ji Zhao's elegant movements, like that of a nobleman while dining. His long eyelashes were like crow feathers, casting deep green shadows on his eyelids, and his beauty was beyond mortal.
Ji Zhao was very serious and quiet when eating, and he didn't communicate with others. But as long as Zhao Xiangwan spoke, he would stop what he was doing and listen to her words. After confirming that it had nothing to do with him, he would continue eating.
The more he looked, the angrier Mei Qingxi's stomach became.
[What's wrong with being pretty? Can being pretty be used to make a living? He can't even speak, and is as dumb as a person. If a person like this lives his whole life, Xiang Wan must be very tired, right?]
[Can an autistic person work in the city police station? Don’t police officers have physical examination requirements? The city police station really recruits talents without any restrictions. Even if he looks like a normal person now, so what? He is not a normal person after all! ]
The more he thought about it, the more bloated and irritated Mei Qingxi became. He couldn't help it, so after eating a few bites of food, he asked Zhao Xiangwan, "Xiangwan, are you really in love with him?"
Zhao Xiangwan nodded: "Yes."
Mei Qingxi asked, "Why?" His face looked very unhappy, and there was hostility in his eyes when he looked at Ji Zhao, which made Zhao Xiangwan feel resistant.
Zhao Xiangwan put down his chopsticks, his face turned sullen: "Mei Qingxi, do I need to explain my affairs to you? If we are friends, then respect and bless you; if we are not friends, then you can leave."
Mei Qingxi knew Zhao Xiangwan's temper, so she didn't dare to question him anymore. She could only force a smile and said, "Well, I hope you will be happy."
Zhao Xiangwan said, "Hmm," "Thank you very much."
Zhu Feipeng and He Mingyu secretly gave a thumbs up and praised: Well done to Zhao Xiangwan.
After finishing the meal, the waiter brought tea and Gu Zhiguang wanted to pay the bill, but was told that the bill had already been paid. Zhao Xiangwan smiled and said, "Mei Qingxi, you are back from Shenzhen. This evening, Ji Zhao will treat you to a welcoming banquet."
Mei Qingxi was completely controlled by Zhao Xiangwan and had to look at Ji Zhao: "Thank you." The hotel originally belonged to the Ji family. He invited guests here to show off or to demonstrate. Anyway... Mei Qingxi could not change Zhao Xiangwan's choice.
Zhao Xiangwan changed the topic: "How do you feel about the Shenzhen Stock Exchange? Is there a bright future for real estate?"
Mei Qingxi had just returned from Shenzhen, and was feeling the most profoundly. He immediately became interested when he heard this, and told her about the first land auction in Shenzhen, how it shocked the whole country, and how it promoted the revision of the Constitution. He excitedly told Zhao Xiangwan that urban land was not allowed to be bought and sold before, but now relevant policies have been issued, and the land ownership relationship is divided into two: ownership belongs to the state, and the right to use can be traded in the market. As long as it is promoted, all cities will set off a real estate boom.
Thinking of the prophecy of the reborn Zhao Chenyang, Zhao Xiangwan encouraged: "That's great, you should set up a real estate company. Start with residential housing. Nowadays, the housing conditions of ordinary people are very average, and you are just following the trend."
The tube-shaped building where Zhou Qiaoxiu, a teacher at the People's Public Security University, the old family building where the parents of Qin Yueying, a victim of thallium poisoning, lived, the single dormitory building where Pan Guoqing of the Provincial Machinery Factory still lived after being married for many years, and He Mingyu once mentioned that her family of six was squeezed into an old dormitory building in the factory... After more than a decade of market economic development, although the living standards of the people have greatly improved, because housing is basically distributed through unit welfare, living conditions are still simple.
Even without Zhao Chenyang's description of the future, Zhao Xiangwan is confident: the land and housing system reforms pioneered by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange will fill the gaps in the market. As long as we do it, there will be great opportunities.
Mei Qingxi's eyes began to light up: "Xiang Wan, are you really optimistic about this?"
Zhao Xiangwan nodded seriously: "Yes! As long as we work hard, there will be no problem."
Gu Zhixing was also a little excited: "If you approve of it, Xiangwan, then it will definitely work. But there is one thing..."
Zhao Xiangwan asked: "What?"
Gu Zhixing rubbed his hands and said a little embarrassedly: "Mei Qingxi and I want to form a partnership. Now we have a lot of experience in real estate development, but we are completely clueless and have no money."
Zhao Xiangwan asked Mei Qingxi: "Xu Juncai was imprisoned for bribery, and Zhou Jingrong was sentenced for the campus poisoning case. Shouldn't you take over Xu's construction company? Why don't you have any money?"
Mei Qingxi sighed, "Yes, I took over the company, but because of the incidents involving Xu Juncai and Zhou Jingrong, the company's reputation was in tatters. During the time I was in Shenzhen, the various branches fell apart and the financial situation was in disarray. I estimate that it will take some time to sort things out, and there is no money to invest in a new company."
Zhao Xiangwan looked at Gu Zhixing again: "Didn't your father's Xingguang Construction Company steal a lot of Xu's business? How come you have no money?"
Gu Zhixing said a little embarrassedly: "My dad asked me to go home to help, but I don't really want to go back to Xingguang. We are all family. If I go out, there will be uncles and uncles everywhere. I can't save face and can't let go. I wanted to start a company with Mei Qingxi, but my dad was very angry and didn't want to invest."
Zhao Xiangwan couldn't help but smile bitterly. After all this time, these two people were just full of enthusiasm but nothing else. "So what are your plans?"
Gu Zhixing replied, "I will first register a temporary real estate company, and then communicate with the city to jointly develop a piece of land. I heard that the city government is demolishing the land near the Lotus Reservoir and is preparing to build a government residential area with beautiful scenery and pleasant environment to solve the housing problems of the city government, construction committee and other units. It would be best if the government provides the land and I provide the labor. After the construction is completed, I will give the government some houses and sell the rest."
Mei Qingxi explained: "It was the same in Shenzhen at the beginning. By cooperating with the government for development, you can get the best quality land, and the houses you build will never have trouble selling. The construction cost is only a few hundred yuan, and there is no pressure to sell them for thousands of yuan. Even if you use half of it as a dormitory for cadres, you can still make a lot of money from the other half."
Zhao Xiangwan was not good at doing business, but she had heard from Zhao Chenyang that houses in cities would be sold at high prices in the future, and people who were engaged in real estate development would make a lot of money. Especially since Mei Qingxi and his partner were young and energetic, and had learned the most advanced knowledge and experience in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, it would be strange if they did not make money by replicating the successful case.
Many people still believe that housing is provided as welfare by their work units. Real estate development is a new thing, and the sooner you start, the better. Zhao Xiangwan is very clear about this. Thinking of this, Zhao Xiangwan asked Mei Qingxi: "You now have a direction, experience, land and development ideas, but you are short of money, right?"
Mei Qingxi nodded a little embarrassedly: "Yes, a penny can make a hero fail. I never thought that Gu Zhixing and I, with the support of two large construction companies, Xu's and Xingguang, could not even come up with a million yuan in registration capital."
Zhao Xiangwan hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."
Having said that, Zhao Xiangwan stood up and pushed the door open to go out.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Ji Jinmao standing in the corridor, eavesdropping. It was hot, and Ji Jinmao was wearing a linen short-sleeved shirt and long pants. His chubby body and loose clothes gave him an inexplicable sense of humor.
Zhao Xiangwan asked, "Uncle Ji, why are you here?"
Ji Jinmao was caught eavesdropping, and his face turned red. "Well, I was worried that I might not be able to entertain you well, so I wanted to come and take a look. You...you are so kind to my Ji Zhao, and you protect him in every way. Thank you, uncle."
Zhao Xiangwan glanced at him with a half-smile.
Ji Jinmao hurriedly explained: "Don't be angry, I promise that I will not eavesdrop or peek again in the future, and I will definitely give you enough freedom."
Zhao Xiangwan waved his hands: "It's okay."
Ji Jinmao felt relieved: "That's good."
Ji Jinmao had just heard the general idea, and when he saw Zhao Xiangwan coming out, he asked, "Do you want to invest?"
Zhao Xiangwan nodded.
Ji Jinmao asked out of business instinct, "Can I make money?"
Zhao Xiangwan: "It's a steady profit with no losses."
Ji Jinmao's eyes lit up: "Are you so sure?"
Since ancient times, there have been gains and losses in doing business. How can there be a steady profit without loss? Zhao Xiangwan has a stable temperament. He can say such words, so he must be able to make money!
Ji Jinmao became excited: "I want to invest?"
Zhao Xiangwan didn't say anything.
Ji Jinmao asked: "How much do you need?"
[I happen to have some liquid funds on hand, nothing else, but I still have three or four million. Since this is a project that Xiangwan likes, and it says that it is a stable profit, then I must invest, it just depends on how. ]
Zhao Xiangwan said: "Mei Qingxi and Gu Zhixing plan to open a real estate company. They need a registered capital of one million and also initial start-up capital. I don't know the exact amount."
Ji Jinmao said sincerely: "Xiang Wan, do you have a certain understanding of the profits of this project?"
Since Zhao Xiangwan has decided to be with Ji Zhao, Ji Jinmao is his own man, so he doesn't hide it: "According to their experience in Shenzhen. Hong Kong businessmen are responsible for all investments, including land leveling, five connections and one leveling, housing construction, roads and greening, as well as sales expenses, etc. Shenzhen real estate companies provide land, people, and expertise, and lead all infrastructure and management. In less than a year, seven or eight high-rise buildings have sprung up. After cooperating on a project, they invested 3 million and made a net profit of 8 million. Do you think the profit is high?"
When Ji Jinmao heard this, he immediately became excited: "Such a high profit margin? This is huge profit!"
Zhao Xiangwan said: "Yes, and the most amazing thing is that Hong Kong people only get 15% of the profits from their investments, while Shenzhen real estate companies provide land and people and get 85% of the profits."
Ji Jinmao exclaimed, "Land is very expensive in Hong Kong City. The most difficult thing to build a house is to get the land. Shenzhen and Hong Kong City are close to each other. As long as you have land, you can get a bank loan of 3 million yuan, with an annual interest rate of 7% and a cost of 210,000 yuan. But after this round of cooperation, I can earn 750,000 yuan. I can earn 540,000 yuan by transferring the money from one hand to the other. How can it not work? I am so happy~"
Zhao Xiangwan finally understood why Ji Jinmao could become the richest man in Hunan Province. His ability to calculate accounts alone was eye-opening for her. When she heard Mei Qingxi introduce this case, it took her a long time to understand why people in Gangcheng were willing to invest for only 15% of the share. But Ji Jinmao understood it immediately after hearing a few numbers. He not only understood the land policy in the mainland, but also the bank loan process in Gangcheng. His ability to summarize and simplify things was really strong.
Zhao Xiangwan said, "Uncle Ji, you can cooperate with them and give guidance to young people in starting their own businesses."
Ji Jinmao wanted Zhao Xiangwan to make some money, so he suggested: "Since you think you can make steady profits, why don't you borrow money from me for investment? Just give me 7% annual interest according to the bank loan standard, and I have nothing to do with how much you make."
Zhao Xiangwan smiled: "Thank you for thinking of me, no need."
Ji Jinmao said: "Isn't it good to have money?"
Zhao Xiangwan insisted: "I am not interested in this. I'd better leave the matter of making money to someone more capable."
Ji Jinmao looked at her seriously, with admiration in his eyes: "Xiang Wan, don't worry, I won't let you suffer any loss."
Zhao Xiangwan didn't care. Her only goal was to attract investment for Mei Qingxi and his team. They were all young people and had a childhood friendship, so she could help as much as she could: "I'll introduce you to a company, but you can discuss the details of how to invest, how to divide the profits, and how to determine the rights and responsibilities."
Ji Jinmao said happily: "Okay, after the deal is done, I will give you 10% of the agency fee."
Zhao Xiangwan was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"
Ji Jinmao said: "I happen to have some money in my hand. If you can help me find a way to invest and make money, I will definitely pay you a commission. If I make one million, I will give you one hundred thousand. If I make ten million, I will give you one million."
Zhao Xiangwan shook his hands and refused: "No need."
Ji Jinmao would not allow her to refuse this time: "Just listen to me, it's definitely right. If you don't make any money, don't worry, you don't have to pay for it."
After that, he opened the door and said with a big smile: "Which boss wants to invest? Let's talk."
Mei Qingxi and Gu Zhixing looked at Zhao Xiangwan who was following behind Ji Jinmao: "Who is this?"
Zhao Xiangwan smiled and said, "Mr. Ji happens to have some liquid funds. Aren't you short of money? I'll be the introducer, and you can talk it over."
How could Ji Jinmao be better at doing business than Mei Qingxi and Gu Zhixing, two freshly graduated college students? The three of them sat down and quickly drafted a contract. The three of them signed and put their fingerprints on it, and just like that, they completed a big project with an investment of 3 million.
When Ji Jinmao left with the contract, Mei Qingxi and Gu Zhixing seemed to be in a dream. They looked at each other in disbelief: "Did you settle the money issue so quickly?"
What I thought was the most difficult task was unexpectedly solved so easily just by meeting Zhao Xiangwan once and having a meal with him.
I was sleepy and hit the pillow.
Mei Qingxi said: "Xiang Wan, do you want to join our company? You are really a lucky guy."
Gu Zhixing also lobbied: "Yes, come to the company and be an executive manager. You are still in college, so you can work part-time. I will give you a salary of 300 yuan a month."
Zhao Xiangwan smiled: "When I was interrogating Feng Lili, the main culprit of the campus poisoning case, she also wanted to recruit me to her company and offered me a salary of 600 yuan."
Zhao Xiangwan really didn't lie about this. She has the ability to read your mind. As long as she wants, she can guarantee that she can speak to your heart and make you feel comfortable. Feng Lili met Zhao Xiangwan in the interrogation room at that time and regretted not meeting her earlier. She was determined to dig her out.
Gu Zhixing blushed at Zhao Xiangwan's words: "Ah, well, our company hasn't opened yet, so we don't dare to offer too high a salary..."
Mei Qingxi rolled his eyes at Gu Zhixing and explained, "Come here, Xiangwan. The three of us are partners. You just need to come over and give us some advice occasionally, and I'll give you 10% of the profits."
Gu Zhixing hesitated to speak.
[Just now, President Ji has taken 40% of our company's profits. He and I can only take 30%. If we give Zhao Xiangwan another 10%, then...]
Mei Qingxi said firmly: "This 10% profit will be deducted from me."
Gu Zhixing didn't say anything else, but he was muttering in his heart.
[Mr. Ji holds 40%, I hold 30%, Mei Qingxi holds 20%, and Zhao Xiangwan holds 10%. However, this will reduce Mei Qingxi's share, and he and I will not have the same say in the company. Mei Qingxi is now the manager of Xu's Construction Company, so it is not appropriate to let him hold only 20%.]
Thinking of this, Gu Zhixing said, "No, no, no, let's each give 5% to Zhao Xiangwan. After all, Zhao Xiangwan helped solve the biggest problem of our company. We may encounter other problems in the future. With Xiangwan as a lucky general, we will definitely be able to go smoothly and make a lot of money."
Then, Zhao Xiangwan had no choice but to refuse, and the 10% profit was thus secured.
After one night, Zhao Xiangwan had a feeling that she would soon become a rich woman.
Zhao Chenyang said that real estate will make a lot of money in the future.
Mei Qingxi and Gu Zhixing have backgrounds in the construction industry. They graduated in civil engineering and learned the latest real estate development experience in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
Gu Zhixing has planned to cooperate with the municipal government to develop residential buildings for cadres.
The first round of funding has been fully received.
——At this pace, as long as we move quickly enough, we will probably be able to develop and build more than a dozen executive residences around the Lotus Reservoir by next summer vacation.
If we apply the Shenzhen Stock Exchange development case to the calculation, we can make 8 million by investing 3 million.
Zhao Xiangwan took 10%, which is 800,000.
Ji Jinmao gave her an agency fee of 10% of the profit, which was 320,000 yuan.
A rough calculation shows that if the project goes smoothly, Zhao Xiangwan can get 1.12 million.
Being a millionaire in the 1990s was truly amazing.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xiangwan's lips curled up slightly. Although she was not obsessed with money, having money and being able to make money was also a very happy thing.
In this pleasant atmosphere, Zhao Xiangwan asked Gu Zhiguang: "You said you had something to say, what is it?" The last time Gu Zhiguang came to see him was because Jia Junnan's girlfriend went missing, which led to a complex case. This time, he didn't know what kind of trouble he had that he needed Zhao Xiangwan's help with.
Gu Zhiguang had just been watching Mei Qingxi and Gu Zhixing negotiate and settle accounts, and he was quietly communicating with Zhu Feipeng. It was a rare opportunity to talk to a police officer from the serious crime squad, and Gu Zhiguang, who was a chatterbox, kept talking nonstop, curious about everything and asking questions about everything.
——What are the requirements to join the Serious Crime Unit?
——What procedures are required to arrest suspects?
——Have you ever encountered a difficult case? How do you usually handle it?
——If we conduct a private investigation, how can we ensure that the evidence is legal?
When Zhao Xiangwan called him out, Gu Zhiguang raised his head and said, "There is indeed something." He pointed at Zhu Feipeng and said, "I was just asking, if I accept someone else's commission to conduct a private investigation, how can I ensure that my actions are legal and compliant? How can I obtain evidence that can be accepted by the court?"
Zhao Xiangwan asked, "What do you want to investigate? Why are you so cautious?"
Gu Zhiguang has been running a detective agency at Hunan University for three years and has gradually become a little famous. Especially after helping Jia Junnan find his girlfriend Zhan Xiaolan and helping the police solve a major murder case, his reputation has become known to everyone. So much so that he did not go home this summer and was overwhelmed with assignments.
Of course, the cases he took were all small ones.
The day before yesterday, an unexpected client came to Gu Zhiguang's detective agency.
Gu Zhiguang's detective agency was located in a small room on the west side of the first floor of the male dormitory. It was only about ten square meters. In the past, a long-distance phone was placed here. Students had to make pay calls here when they wanted to make long-distance calls. Later, the phone was moved to the canteen, so Gu Zhiguang found the leader of the logistics department and rented this room. He placed a desk and two chairs in the corner and hung a sign on the door: Gu Zhiguang Detective Agency.
The house had been used for a long time and was located on the first floor, so it was dark and shabby. When the client walked into the detective agency, he sneezed unconsciously.
Gu Zhiguang, who was sitting at the table taking notes, was startled by the sneeze and looked up.
The visitor was a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her forties. Her eyebrows were bent downwards, the corners of her mouth were drooping, and her deep nasolabial folds made her face look sad. One could tell at a glance that her life was not going well.
Most of the people who came to the detective agency were students from Hunan University, young people around 20 years old. Suddenly a middle-aged woman came, and Gu Zhiguang stood up and called out politely: "Auntie, who are you looking for?"
The woman sneezed twice more and rubbed her nose. "My nose is a little allergic. Sorry. I'll see the detective."
Detective Gu? Gu Zhiguang grinned. Gu Zhiguang, who had idolized Sherlock Holmes since he was a child, loved to be called Detective Gu. Unfortunately, in this campus, most people who came to see him called him "Classmate Gu".
Gu Zhiguang dragged out a chair with a smile and asked the woman to sit down: "Auntie, please sit down. I'm Gu Zhiguang. What can I do for you?" Most of them were students' parents. Hehe, he didn't expect that Gu Zhiguang Detective Agency is so famous now, and its clients have expanded from students to parents.
After the woman sat down, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket and blew her nose hard.
After Gu Zhiguang sat back at the desk, he waited patiently for her to speak.
The woman introduced herself, her name was Lu Zhiying, and her daughter Shi Qiyan was a graduate student at Hunan University, in her second year of graduate school, majoring in architecture.
Shi Qiyan!
Gu Zhiguang stood up immediately and served tea to the woman attentively: "It turns out to be Aunt Lu. Sister Shi is very outstanding and is our idol." Rather than saying she is an idol, it is better to say that she is a dream lover.
Shi Qiyan has a slim figure with distinct curves and a sweet and pretty face. She wears a pair of black tight trousers and a large floral silk scarf around her waist. When she walks around the campus, she always gets people turning their heads around.
Shi Qiyan is not only beautiful, but also very hardworking and diligent in her studies. After graduating from university, she was admitted to our school as a graduate student, where she studied under Professor Jia Shendu and engaged in research on the protection and utilization of historical buildings.
I never thought that Senior Sister Shi Qiyan is so beautiful and knows how to dress up, but her mother has such a... miserable face.
Gu Zhiguang observed Lu Zhiying while chatting with her.
Lu Zhiying answered Gu Zhiguang's questions absentmindedly, and it was obvious that something was on her mind.
Seeing that she didn't get to the point for a long time, Gu Zhiguang asked directly: "Is there anything you want to say, Senior Sister Shi Qiyan? Since you are here, just tell me what you want to say. I have a strong sense of professional ethics in running a detective agency and will never disclose the privacy of my clients."
Lu Zhiying then looked up at him and said, "Qi Yan has been acting strange lately. I'm afraid she will follow in her father's footsteps."
Gu Zhiguang asked: "What's wrong?"
Lu Zhiying said: "Isn't it summer vacation? But Qiyan has been staying in school to work on projects with her tutor, and sometimes she has to go on business trips. She finally went home to rest last week, but she looked very bad and couldn't sleep all night."
Gu Zhiguang asked again: "What happened to her father?"
Lu Zhiying hesitated for a long time: "Her father also suffered from insomnia for a long time, and later... jumped off the building."
