Panzhou.
Lihu Villa.
This is one of the most famous Cantonese restaurants in Panzhou.
Since Li Xingwen established a cooperative relationship with Wei Yuanzhou, he would basically invite him to dinner at Lihu Villa every time he came to give gifts, and this time was no exception.
Wei Yuanzhou is 56 years old this year. Not only does he look ordinary, he is only 1.63 meters tall. In addition, he is bald and fat, so he can really be described as ugly.
The two sides met and exchanged greetings.
While waiting for the food to be served, Wei Yuanzhou looked at the two people sitting opposite him who were a perfect match, and couldn't help but say with envy: "Wenzi, not only do you have a good business, but you are also so good at finding a wife. You are really a winner in life! If my boy can be half as capable as you, I can die with my eyes closed!"
Li Xingwen poured him tea and replied with a smile: "Uncle Wei, you are too kind. My business is all thanks to your support, and it's just hard-earned money. As for finding a wife, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I just found the right matchmaker. My wife was introduced to me by the matchmaker."
Wei Yuanzhou was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "No way, Wenzai, your outstanding wife was actually met by a blind date?"
Zhang Qiulan smiled awkwardly after being praised.
Li Xingwen moved the poured tea in front of Wei Yuanzhou, then smiled and nodded, saying: "It is true that we met through a blind date. It can be said that she and I are destined to be together..."
Next, Li Xingwen briefly recounted their story together, and at the end he said with emotion: "Fortunately, my father chose to trust Master Jiang at the time and went to ask for a matchmaker immediately, otherwise I would not have the blessing to marry such a good wife!"
Zhang Qiulan accepted all the compliments from her husband, and a feeling of happiness surged in her heart.
The more Wei Yuanzhou listened, the brighter his eyes became. The people of Guangdong Province had the highest level of trust in these supernatural things in the country. Someone even said that in a residential building, to identify whether a household was from Guangdong Province, one only needed to see whether there was a shrine at the door.
Even though this statement is a bit exaggerated, it can also indirectly prove that people in Guangdong Province have a much higher degree of trust in metaphysics than people in other provinces. In Guangdong Province, the richer people are, the more they believe in this.
Therefore, after listening to Li Xingwen's words, Wei Yuanzhou couldn't wait to ask: "Wenzi, is this Master Jiang really as amazing as you said? Can he figure out someone's marital status just by taking a look?"
Li Xingwen nodded and said, "It is indeed so magical. Not only has my father witnessed this, but my wife and I have also witnessed it with our own eyes. We are still in awe of Master Jiang's ability."
Hearing this, Wei Yuanzhou stopped hesitating and said, "Wenzi, my boy is already 33 years old this year, but he still hasn't married. His mother and I are almost dying of anxiety. I would like to ask Master Jiang to be a matchmaker for him. I wonder if you can help introduce him to someone?"
Li Xingwen took a sip of the tea and said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem!"
Thinking of his son's marriage, Wei Yuanzhou couldn't help but sigh and said, "Wenzi, our family's economic conditions are indeed good, but unfortunately his figure and appearance are quite poor. My son inherited my shortcomings. Not only does he look ordinary and fat, but he is only 1.65 meters tall. He is a typical third-level disabled person!
So I set the standard for my son to marry a wife a long time ago, that is, he must marry someone tall and beautiful. The purpose is to optimize the next generation and not let the grandchildren be troubled by body shape and appearance.
As a result, more than ten years have passed, and I still haven't found a suitable candidate. I'm starting to waver in my heart. If I still can't find someone who meets the requirements in another year or two, I'm going to lower the standards and let him marry anyone to carry on the family line!"
Li Xingwen was really full of confidence in Jiang Feng. Hearing this, he vowed, "Don't worry, Uncle Wei. With Master Jiang's help, this problem should be easily solved."
Wei Yuanzhou still has great confidence in the credibility of his business partner Li Xingwen.
After all, the cooperation between the two of them in the past few years has been very pleasant, and Wei Yuanzhou has given Li Xingwen a credit line of up to five million in his mind, which shows how much trust he has in him.
This was also the real reason why he immediately decided to ask Master Jiang to be a matchmaker for his son after hearing Li Xingwen praising Master Jiang so much, because he believed that Li Xingwen would never lie to him about such a thing.
"Wenzai, my son's marriage has been a concern of mine. If it can be successfully resolved this time, you will have helped me a lot!" Wei Yuanzhou said with emotion.
"Uncle Wei, you are so polite!"
At this moment, Li Xingwen was really excited. Although he had always maintained a good relationship with his big customer Wei Yuanzhou, it was just good. In addition to giving him some convenience in settling the payment for the goods, the other party did not hand over all the scrap metal to him for disposal.
Of course, the main reason is that Li Xingwen does not have the capital to take on so much scrap metal.
After all, Wei Yuanzhou's scrap metal recycling business is very big, with hundreds of tons of goods shipped every day. If all of it were to be handed over to Li Xingwen to handle, it would not be able to operate without tens of millions of funds.
Because Li Xingwen sent the scrap iron to the steel mill, it was impossible for the steel mill to settle in cash. There was a settlement cycle, and those who could get weekly settlement were all powerful people with good connections.
Under normal circumstances, settlement is made every ten days or half a month, or even up to a month.
Just imagine that millions of goods are shipped out every day, but you can only wait ten days or half a month to get a refund. How can you do this without tens of millions of funds?
Although Li Xingwen's family is well-off, he only has a net worth of several million and cannot support such a big business.
But if he could deepen his relationship with Wei Yuanzhou, as long as the other party gave him a few more carts of iron every day, did not require him to pay cash for the goods, and gave him a certain payment settlement period, then even if his income did not double, it would not be much different.
…
Next, the waiters began to serve the dishes one after another.
The two of them skipped over this topic and started chatting about the latest happenings in the scrap metal circle while drinking and eating.
For example, someone got cheated and lost tens of thousands of yuan for pulling a truckload of iron. Another example is that the purchase price of a certain steel plant has fallen again, and judging from the recent market conditions, there is a trend of further decline. Or you may lament that the competition among peers is fierce, prices are becoming more and more transparent, and making money is not as easy as before.
Both of them make a living in the same industry chain, so they have endless topics to talk about in the industry. What's more, both of them have strong social skills, so they make each other feel like they are in spring breeze when they chat.
The meal lasted nearly two hours, and after some communication, both the host and the guests had a great time!
