As for her husband's current mental state, the clever Zhang Qiuling had already guessed about 70% of it. She poured Yuan Fangmin a full glass of beer, then picked up a large sausage for him before slowly saying, "We will have to separate from Big Brother sooner or later. As the saying goes, brothers should be clear about accounts. So to avoid those worries, we must do it as soon as possible. If we succeed in the supermarket, we will start from Ziyang City and expand step by step. We will surround the city from the countryside. If the supermarket doesn't do well, Big Brother will definitely not find out if we don't tell him this time. At worst, we can just lie dormant for a few years."
After some earnest persuasion and education, Yuan Fangmin finally made up his mind, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
"We must keep this matter confidential. I've seen that the family has about three million in cash, which should be enough."
"How about we go to Ziyang City sometime to take a look?" Yuan Fangmin was not in a hurry to invest immediately. He felt that investigating the market was the most important thing.
"How about this weekend? We can take Niu Niu out to play as well." Zhang Qiuling said after thinking about it.
This time, Yuan Fangmin did not hesitate. He nodded and agreed.
Yuan Fangguo originally planned to have the whole family get together on the weekend, and Song Yiting happened to be coming back as well. However, he unexpectedly received a call from Yuan Fangmin on Thursday. Yuan Fangmin told him that he had to leave Chengdu on Saturday and Sunday for something.
Yuan Fangguo didn't think much about it. He felt that the third brother must be asking for work, so he agreed immediately.
On Thursday afternoon, Wang Ping's men came to him again, still hoping to cooperate.
Yuan Fangguo continued to reject their request for a simple reason: he did not have enough funds. At the same time, he continued to make a request to Wang Ping, hoping that he could act as a guarantor and allow him to borrow money from the bank.
Wang Ping was clearly well prepared this time. "Mr. Yuan, our group has seriously considered the guarantee and believes it's not very reliable. How about this: our company lends you the money and then pays it back based on interest or shares?"
This kind of thing certainly cannot be agreed to all at once. Yuan Fangguo said that they need to discuss it carefully among the shareholders.
When Wang Ping's people heard this, they couldn't help but laugh, "Mr. Yuan, how many shareholders do you have?"
"Several, probably."
"Then can we have a meeting sometime? Our President Wang will never let you suffer any loss. He will only help everyone make money together."
"No one is in Chengdu on weekdays. They travel all over the country. You should have told them earlier. Many of them came back during the National Day holiday. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get everyone together now."
"It doesn't matter. We'll invite you." The guy looked unwilling to give up.
"Brother, I'm afraid that if you invite me, people will mistake you for scammers." Yuan Fangguo smiled. "In that case, I will contact them as soon as possible and try to give you a reply before the end of the month."
After thinking about it, the man didn't say much. He said a few polite words and then said goodbye and left.
As soon as the man left, Li Chengming knocked on his office door.
Li Chengming's current work focus is basically on Zhongsheng Company. He currently has several projects on hand. This time he came here specifically to report to Yuan Fangguo.
Li Chengming saw that the guy who just left looked familiar, so he walked in and said to Yuan Fangguo, "Mr. Yuan, that guy just now looked familiar. Is he the one our company just hired?"
"That guy is Wang Ping's man." Yuan Fangguo said with a wry smile.
"Who is Wang Ping?" Li Chengming was a little puzzled.
Yuan Fangguo told Li Chengming about Wang Ping's basic situation, and Li Chengming suddenly understood it.
"I was wondering, why does he look so familiar? That guy and Zhong Xingtai were really close before National Day."
"Oh, really?" Yuan Fangguo had not expected this.
"A friend of mine happens to be a senior executive at Zhongtai Group. He said that this guy wants to cooperate with Zhong Xingtai." Li Chengming said.
"Has Zhong Xingtai expressed his opinion yet?"
Li Chengming shook his head. "He said he'd consider it. I guess he might go to Zhongtai Group after we leave."
Seeing that the Wang Ping Group was coming after their private enterprises one by one like harvesting in autumn, Yuan Fangguo felt a little scared, but at the same time he also hoped that they could come faster.
If other bosses couldn't resist cooperating with Wang Ping, then Wang Ping might forget his existence.
In short, no matter what, it is absolutely impossible for him to cooperate with Wang Ping. There is no possibility of cooperation at all.
After Li Chengming finished his work report, Yuan Fangguo also walked out of the office. He came to the park nearby and walked slowly and quietly inside.
Suddenly, he thought of Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong from last time, and always felt something strange, an indescribable feeling.
Wang Dalong's strange behavior made him very confused. He even thought about this problem for an entire afternoon but still couldn't figure it out.
In the evening, Yuan Fangguo received a call from Li Chengming. After leaving their company, Wang Ping's people really went to Zhongtai Group. However, Zhong Xingtai was not in the unit, so the people below did not dare to make a decision.
It seems that these people really don't care whether their eating habits are ugly or not, as long as their goals are achieved.
Yuan Fangguo also discussed this issue with Zhang Jun and others. What he didn't expect was that Zhang Jun was unusually sober at this time. He even sent people to check Wang Ping's background.
However, what disappointed Yuan Fangguo was that the people from the district public security bureau were unable to find out Wang Ping's background.
"All of his identities seem to be real." Zhang Jun said after taking a sip of tea.
"Have you ever suspected him?" Yuan Fangguo asked.
Zhang Jun nodded. "This kind of thing is no ordinary matter. It concerns the stability of private entrepreneurs in our district, and even in our city. If something goes wrong, others will laugh at us."
After saying this, Zhang Jun told Yuan Fangguo a story that happened recently.
It turned out that recently in a place in Bashu Province, there was a liar pretending to be a high-ranking official who deceived the leaders of a county. When he was finally found out, the leaders of the county lost face and became the laughing stock of everyone for a while.
After hearing this story, Yuan Fangguo couldn't help but doubt Wang Ping again in his heart.
He also told Zhang Jun about his meeting with Jiangnan City Vice Mayor Wang Dalong during the National Day holiday.
When Zhang Jun heard this, he suddenly told him that he had a classmate who worked in the Jiangnan City Government, and he could use his classmate to inquire about Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong's recent schedule.
