Li Chunli originally planned to take Yuan Fangguo to talk to her friend the next day, but Yuan Fangguo told her that he had classes all day tomorrow and could only spare some time in the evening.
With Yuan Fangguo by her side, Li Chunli felt more confident, but Yuan Fangguo couldn't spare time during the day, so she could only wait to go to her friend's house at night.
Li Chunli felt that time passed very slowly, so slowly that it seemed like a month or a year had passed. However, after waiting for Yuan Fangguo, she found that time passed very quickly again.
The friend's home was about ten kilometers away from Bashu University where they were studying, and there was no bus between the two places, so the two of them could only stop a taxi and rush there.
At Li Chunli's friend's house, Li Chunli introduced Yuan Fangguo to her friend. She still introduced him as her cousin and told her friend that she did not have much money and that it was her cousin who actually invested.
In this way, even if the two sides can't reach an agreement, at least she won't have to be too embarrassed with her friends.
After a brief exchange of courtesy, both sides went straight to the point. Li Chunli's friend insisted on the previous conditions, while Yuan Fangguo insisted on his own conditions. The atmosphere suddenly became very solemn.
Yuan Fangguo was a little abnormal today. Li Chunli's friends made some concessions and were very close to the conditions he mentioned last night, but Yuan Fangguo did not give in at all, which made it impossible for everyone to reach an agreement in the end.
On the way back, Li Chunli couldn't help but ask Yuan Fangguo.
"Sister Li, this is a bottom line issue. The cooperation between the two parties must be principled. In fact, the conditions we give them are already very good. They can get dividends for their investment, and the profit is comparable to usury." Yuan Fangguo had already thought about it last night. At present, he was unwilling to cooperate with anyone other than Li Chunli, so he has been sticking to his bottom line today.
"I mainly think that we are all friends and it's enough if we can make money from each other." Li Chunli felt a little regretful.
"Sister Li, the more we are friends, the more we must stick to our bottom line." Yuan Fangguo said with determination.
Li Chunli nodded, but she felt as distressed as if Yuan Fangguo had lost his ticket.
Although the restaurant business did not succeed, Yuan Fangguo's plan to go to Guangzhou has been put on the agenda.
May Day, International Labor Day, is coming soon. Yuan Fangguo looked at the school schedule and found that they have about six days of free time before and after May Day.
Right now, their electronic product inventory is running low, and the nearly 300,000 yuan worth of goods they previously purchased is now estimated to be worth less than 50,000 yuan. At this rate, they can only last until around June at most.
He and Li Chunli each spent about 150,000 yuan on buying a house. Apart from that, their total assets are only about 600,000 yuan.
Yuan Fangguo plans to go to Guangzhou again during the May Day holiday, this time still by car.
Four days were spent on the road, and two days were spent on local shopping.
He also thought of calling Zhao Yong.
This is Zhao Yong's last year of military service. Ever since he went to Guangzhou with Yuan Fangguo last time, he has devoted his attention to business. When he heard that Yuan Fangguo was planning to go to Guangzhou again during Labor Day, he said without hesitation that he would definitely go.
After returning to the company, Zhao Yong told Yuan Fangtai that he and Yuan Fangguo were going to Guangzhou during the May Day holiday.
In fact, Yuan Fangtai had been itching to go for it for a long time, but now there was only more than a month left before he took the military academy entrance exam. He knew that his elder brother also attached great importance to his admission. Since the beginning of the year, he had given him cigarettes and alcohol many times and asked him to deliver them to the leaders so that he could be ranked higher when recommended. In this way, if his grades were the same, he would be able to get in first.
"Do well in the exam. When you get promoted, treat me to a drink." Zhao Yong laughed.
The two were chatting when the company's new recruit, the clerk, knocked on the door and walked in.
"Sergeant, the company commander and the instructor are looking for you." The new recruit was still a little timid towards Yuan Fangtai, who had been a soldier for two years.
Yuan Fangtai nodded, threw a cigarette to the new recruit, and straightened his uniform as he walked, wondering what the company commander and the instructor wanted to talk to him about.
Half an hour later, Yuan Fangtai walked out of the room with a calm expression.
His expression was unusually calm, like a pool of stagnant water.
Zhao Yong seemed to have discovered something and stepped forward to ask.
Yuan Fangtai didn't say anything at first, but the more he did so, the more anxious Zhao Yong became. He pushed him into the house, closed the door, and continued to ask questions.
After a while, Yuan Fangtai finally spoke, "Class monitor, I'm not on the list of recommended candidates for this year's exam."
Zhao Yong was stunned when he heard this. He was Yuan Fangtai's squad leader and was most familiar with this rural soldier from the mountains. Although he had only dropped out of high school, he was considered an excellent student in the company. He was also smart and had beautiful handwriting. He worked as a clerk for almost a year in his first year as a recruit. Not only did he make the registration and statistics standardized, he also kept the company commander and instructor's rooms clean. It was totally unacceptable not to promote such a soldier in this era.
But fate was like this. At the beginning of this year, several people with connections were transferred in from other military regions, and these people with connections suddenly changed Yuan Fangtai's fate.
The company commander and the instructor had just come to him to have a heart-to-heart talk and enlighten him. The company commander Fu Zhijun was also very angry for these people with connections. Although his father was a general, it was better to be a current official than a current manager. Besides, Yuan Fangtai would not be completely without opportunities in the future, so he endured it.
"What did the company commander say?" Zhao Yong asked anxiously, knowing that Yuan Fangtai was close to the company commander.
"The company commander said that even if the marshal's relationship comes next year, he will fight for me." Yuan Fangtai said.
"In that case, let's not take the exam this year." Zhao Yong sighed helplessly, sat down on the bed, and threw a cigarette to Yuan Fangtai.
"Squad leader, I want to go to Guangzhou with you this time." Suddenly, Yuan Fangtai looked at Zhao Yong seriously and said.
