Chapter 290: Mr. Zhao's hard truth!



The glass door of Xishan Company was closed.

To ensure the safety of directors, consulting business was temporarily moved outside the door today.

"Manager Yu, is there no one selling stocks today?" The old customers who come almost every day are very familiar with the company's lobby manager.

The lobby manager was called Yu Men, and he was the younger brother of the deputy general manager Yu Ben. However, he was also one of the original 100 managers, and he did not get to the top because of his brother's relationship.

"Not yet, dear." Yu Men answered in a friendly manner with a professional smile on his face.

In fact, the master asked him to address the customers who came to his house as "dear ones".

It is said that it means "be close to your relatives to make friends, and never abandon the virtuous friends."

But Yu Men felt really ashamed, so he secretly omitted the word "kiss"...

"When will it be available?"

"I don't know yet, dear." Yu Men smiled and said, "We have registered it for you. As soon as there is a seller, we will notify you."

"Okay." The regular customers were just asking, not holding out much hope. They moved closer to Yu Men and nodded at the luxurious cars and sedans nearby.

“Are the major shareholders in there?”

"It's not convenient to disclose it, dear." Yu Men shook his head and smiled, refusing to answer.

~~

On the third floor, there is the board meeting room.

Guo Dazai continued his statement:

"Furthermore, we have a strong logistics team. We now have more than 2,500 trucks, 800 bamboo rafts, and 5,000 transport workers. We can deliver to the seven prefectures along the Yongding River by water, and to the two prefectures adjacent to Shuntian Prefecture by land!"

"Doesn't this mean that almost all of Northern Zhili can be delivered?" The directors expressed shock.

"Yes, only Xuanfu has inconvenient transportation, so we haven't expanded our business yet." Guo Da proudly replied: "When Xishan Avenue is completed, we can fill this gap."

"Of course, it would be more convenient if we could build a field in Xishan." He laughed and said, "That's about it."

Seeing Zhao Hao nodded, Guo Da returned to the chair at the foot of the wall and sat down.

The directors were so excited that they could hardly contain themselves.

"It turns out that the Lugouqiao coal yard is so powerful. They deserve to make a lot of money."

"Yes, if winter comes, making 70,000 or 80,000 taels a month would be like playing."

"Love makes more money than our Xishan Coal Industry..."

The directors couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, no one would think that the Lugouqiao Coal Yard is more valuable than Xishan Coal Industry.

After all, Xishan Coal Industry's assets are real, just like you can grow food if you have land, and they are solid crops that can be eaten from generation to generation.

Everything about the Lugouqiao coal yard can be replicated.

Although it is difficult for ordinary people to learn the essence, no one can deny that a genius may emerge from nowhere and surpass his teacher.

But no matter how talented you are, you can't create coal out of thin air.

Well, turning waste coal kilns into treasure like the vice chairman did is already a genius, right?

Therefore, shareholders were willing to value Xishan Coal, which had not yet made a profit, at more than 20 million taels, but no one was willing to pay even half of that to the Lugouqiao Coal Yard.

But then again, Xishan Coal Industry and Lugouqiao Coal Yard are really a match made in heaven.

Just like a director said just now, if the two companies merge into one, everyone's assets will be doubly insured, and no matter whether the coal price goes up or down, everyone will make a profit.

Moreover, as long as the acquisition can be completed and the two powerful forces can join forces, Xishan Coal Industry, which will no longer have any shortcomings, will surely sweep the entire northern Zhili coal market!

This is a vast market with a population of 5-6 million and a long winter...

To take a step back, even if the company just merges and does nothing else, its annual dividends can double.

It is conceivable that with so many favorable factors driving the company’s stock price, it will surely skyrocket again!

How much will it rise?

The legendary idiot? Absolutely not a problem!

Three hundred? That's easy too!

Four hundred? You can totally imagine it...

Thinking of this, the directors drooled.

The way they looked at Zhao Hao was completely different from before.

In the past, although everyone admired Zhao Hao's ability to turn stones into gold, after all, only a very small number of original shareholders made a profit from him.

And the money they earned was paid by shareholders who joined later!

The majority of shareholders...including half of the members of the board of directors and the board of supervisors, are all the ones who are being exploited.

Although they had just placed a heavy bet on Zhao Hao and dared not rebel against him easily, they could not help but feel unhappy with him and even had the urge to confront him.

~~

But now it’s different. The directors are like young boys who are just beginning to fall in love and see their beloved girl.

That blazing look made Young Master Zhao feel a little scared.

"Vice Chairman!" This time, the British prince no longer cared about the rules and shouted, "Quickly draw a line and tell us how you plan to acquire the company?"

"Yes, Vice Chairman, just say it, we believe you!" Duke Dingguo and others also shouted.

"You have to come up with this idea yourself, and then it has to be approved by the shareholders' meeting." Zhao Hao quickly waved his hand and said seriously:

"According to the company's articles of association, the chairman and I are shareholders of both companies and must recuse ourselves from related topics... including shareholders' meetings, which we are also unable to attend."

Then he looked at the princess and said, "Chairman, I suggest that we end today's meeting here. Please go back and think about it carefully, and meet again another day. Of course, the two of us will avoid it."

"Well, Director Xu will support the next special board meeting." The princess nodded, banged the gavel and said, "Let's adjourn the meeting."

"Yes." Everyone stood up in unison and saw the chairman off.

"By the way." Zhao Hao glanced at Tang Youde, who also served as the secretary of the board of directors, and said, "Don't forget to copy the board resolution in sufficient quantity for the shareholders to read."

"Yes." Tang Youde responded respectfully.

~~

Zhao Hao followed the princess downstairs. When they came out of the company gate, the Jinyiwei had already separated the crowd.

He helped his godmother straight into the carriage.

As the carriage slowly drove away from the crowd, the eldest princess smiled.

"No wonder my son didn't include the Lugouqiao Coal Yard in Xishan Coal Industry at the beginning. It turns out he was trying to kill two birds with one stone!"

"Indeed, we planned to merge from the beginning, but if that were the case, how could everyone make money?" Zhao Hao said with a smile:

"After all, our goal is to make everyone happy."

"I don't know whether everyone can be happy." The princess smiled and flicked Zhao Hao's forehead and said, "Mother knows that these 80 shareholders will fight for you!"

She continued to admire him as she spoke: "Those shareholders bought your stocks at a high price, and they felt a little uncomfortable. But you made them earn a lot of money in a short time, who wouldn't be grateful to you?"

"No, everyone is afraid that my son will get angry and disagree with the merger." Zhao Hao smiled and shook his head, "So, they don't dare to make me angry."

"No matter what." The princess stretched and said with relief: "Zhao Lang... your father can finally get through this safely."

"Yes, father is so lucky to have a mother." Zhao Hao praised.

"Zhao Lang is so lucky to have a good son like you." The eldest princess also praised.

The mother and daughter smiled at each other and said in unison, "That's right."

~~

Article 27 of the Xishan Company Articles of Association stipulates that:

'When a shareholder has a relationship with the proposed resolution, he shall abstain from the relevant issues and votes. When voting, the total number of voting shares shall be temporarily deducted from his share capital.'

This is a protection clause for minority shareholders, which can prevent major shareholders from abusing their absolute majority and damaging the interests of the company.

For Zhao Hao and the eldest princess, who are major shareholders, this is undoubtedly a self-defeating situation.

But Zhao Hao firmly believes that only by letting people see the superiority of the corporate system will they feel at ease to buy the company's stocks and make the company stronger.

In the future, more and more companies will emerge.

He believed that as long as the number of companies exceeded one hundred, the commercial revolution of the Ming Dynasty would be launched!
