Chapter 49 Lend You Money
Zhang Baoping waved his hands to reassure him.
"I know that Niu Hongli is different from those people. From the time we met until now, he has never made any demands on me. This time he also invited me to invest and we can share the profits."
"You don't know, my old man has been in high spirits recently, saying that he wants to make great plans and create a business empire. And I am just a soldier in his hands. I can do whatever he tells me to do, and I can't complain. Otherwise, I will be taught a patriotic lesson for half a day, which is unbearable for anyone."
“So, even if I form a partnership with someone, I only contribute money, not effort.”
They are all brothers, he will not interfere, there will be no conflicts. As for the profit sharing, once the capital is returned, the rest will be given as he sees fit.
Cheng Hao looked at him and knew that this man had fallen into the problem of brotherhood again.
"You are destined to be in the business circle in the future. You should have a balance in your heart. Business is business, and brothers are brothers. Don't mix them together, otherwise you will end up hurting others and yourself."
"Don't worry, Brother Hao. These are just small matters. I don't expect to make much money. I just want to help Hongli. As long as he can stand firm and have his own business, we will feel more comfortable talking and doing things together."
Zhang Baoping was helpless about this. Although he regarded Niu Hongli as a brother, he always subconsciously flattered him when he spoke to him, and there was always a layer of distance between brothers, which made him feel unhappy.
I told him several times to not be so restrained, but every time he nodded in agreement, he would still do the same thing.
Later he understood that, in the final analysis, the gap between the two was all about money. If Hongli had more money and more confidence, perhaps everything would be different.
So, when Hong Li proposed to go into business together this time, he agreed without hesitation.
I have already told the secretary to calculate the active funds on the books as soon as possible so that he can help.
Hearing his good friend's tone, Cheng Hao couldn't help but frown. Even if the little charlatan hadn't reminded him, with Zhang Baoping's character, he would fall into trouble sooner or later.
"Since you want to help him, then don't invest in him. Just lend him the money. He will only need to pay you back the principal. Since we are friends, there shouldn't be too many interests involved."
When you lend money, don't get involved in the other party's business. Even if something goes wrong, you won't be too involved.
Zhang Baoping was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"Brother Hao was right in reminding me that I really shouldn't have gotten involved. This business was an opportunity that Hong Li had finally gotten, and I really shouldn't have gotten involved. I'll wait until his business is established before cooperating on something else."
After parting with Cheng Hao, he immediately returned to the hotel, asked his secretary to prepare the money, and made an appointment with Niu Hongli at the location. When he saw that Niu Hongli brought a strange brother with him, he didn't care and gave him the money directly, and also told him that he would not participate in the profit sharing.
Niu Hongli looked at him in surprise, "Brother Zhang, we should make money together. We already agreed on this. Why did you change your mind?"
"That was agreed upon, but then I thought, since this is a good business to make money, it is an opportunity given to you by God, so I will not participate. When your business is established, don't forget to lend a hand to me."
"Brother Zhang, you..." His purpose is to bring people into the group, how can he not join?
"If we are brothers, don't try to persuade me. I'll just lend you the money. When you make money, you can pay me back. We are brothers for life. We don't care about one or two gains or losses."
Zhang Baoping patted Niu Hongli on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile.
