Pei Xu, be more normal!
"Master Jiang, are you investigating me?" Pei Xu looked at him with a look of astonishment.
"I'm just investigating potential partners. There are so many unreliable people these days. I'm just doing some background checks."
Pei Xu replied with a hint of unconscious loneliness: "Being a star is a bit unfair to you, go home and inherit the family property and start a business."
Jiang Lin glared at him as a warning.
"I won't say anything more. You're so hard to coax." After saying that, Pei Xu covered his mouth.
The cold wind blew on their faces. Jiang Lin put his hands in his pockets and said solemnly, "Pei Xu, I have two suggestions. Please consider them."
"I am all ears."
Pei Xu's servile attitude pleased Jiang Lin. He smiled lightly and said, "First, I will invest in your project. I will invest in capital and you will invest in technology. We can discuss the specific ratio. Second, I will lend you the funds you need. The interest rate is the same as the bank you intend to borrow from. You will own all the shares, but you will definitely not be able to handle such a large industry by yourself. You can refer to Senior Sister Lu Xiaojing's approach."
Pei Xu tilted his head to look at his profile. Jiang Lin's words were like a sharp blade that cut through his tangled thoughts. "Jiang Lin, thank you. I will consider your opinion carefully."
For two days, Pei Xu stayed indoors and there was no news.
Jiang Lin climbed up to the roof and looked at his house. The curtains in the room were tightly closed, and he couldn't see any clues. He typed and deleted the words in the dialog box, and said depressedly: "No! I'm the sponsor! Why should I be anxious? I'm the one who should be showing off."
The night was dark and Peijia Village entered a quiet night. Jiang Lin's cell phone kept vibrating on the bedside. He subconsciously answered the call and asked confusedly, "Who is it?"
"Jiang Lin, it's me."
"Pei Xu." Jiang Lin glanced at the time and said helplessly, "Do you know what time it is now?"
"Three-thirty in the morning."
It was very quiet on the other end of the phone. Jiang Lin was sure that he was at home. "He's not drunk or mentally ill. What's your intention in calling me at this time to disturb my sweet dreams?"
Pei Xu said solemnly: "Jiang Lin, I have made up my mind. I have decided to adopt your second plan. Come to my house tomorrow to discuss it in detail."
People are in high spirits when they are happy. Pei Xu respectfully welcomed Jiang Lin, the rich second generation, upstairs.
"Oh, you even cleaned it specially." Jiang Lin's eyes lit up. The room was spotless. The books and sundries had been neatly put away, freeing up some space.
Pei Xu pulled out a chair for him with a tactful look and said flatteringly, "Boss Jiang, please sit down."
Jiang Lin was very pleased with this and said happily, "Xiao Pei, did you study overnight?"
"Boss Jiang, what are you talking about? There is no human connection, only sincerity." After saying that, Pei Xu opened the lid of the cup, and the hot American coffee exuded a faint burnt aroma. "The temperature is just right, Boss Jiang, please drink."
Jiang Lin took the hot American coffee and said flatteredly, "Pei Xu, you are so attentive so early in the morning. Are you possessed?"
"If you want to ask someone to do something for you, you have to have the attitude of asking for help. We'll talk after we have coffee."
A cup of hot American coffee went down his throat, which made him feel less swollen and more comfortable. Jiang Lin also felt much better.
Pei Xu reached out to take the cup from his hand, but Jiang Lin refused and said, "Pei Xu, be normal."
Pei Xu turned on the computer and asked him to sit closer. The mouse slowly slid through the data. Two pairs of eyes stared at the screen intently. Pei Xu explained: "In the early stage, I need to borrow 3.5 million from you to rent land, improve soil, buy black rose seedlings, tea tree seedlings, install drip irrigation and water-fertilizer integrated equipment, and other production activities.
Jiang Lin's fingers tapped the table unconsciously. The amount Pei Xu needed was within his expectations. "How are you going to handle the land leasing?"
"I plan to plant 300 mu of dark red roses. Peijia Village has a total of more than 1,000 mu of land, of which some mu has been reserved for growing rice and vegetables. First, I will ask villagers whose families are not home to use their land for free."
Jiang Lin touched his chin and asked in doubt, "Free of charge? You're just dreaming."
Pei Xu explained calmly: "In the countryside, if some villagers and their families go out to work, the fields will be abandoned and no one will cultivate them. They will hand over the land to their relatives or people who need to cultivate the land for free. We can fight for it. If they don't want it for free, we can negotiate the price of the lease."
Jiang Lin pointed at the numbers on the screen and asked, "We estimate that 600 dark red roses and 50 oil tea trees will be planted per acre, and the unit price is estimated to be 6 yuan per tree." His hands were simultaneously inputting numbers on the computer, "Is 3.5 million enough for you to squander?"
Pei Xu teased, "Boss Jiang hopes that I can borrow as much as possible, and he wants to collect interest from me as a financial management measure, right?"
Jiang Lin nodded and responded: "The way to make money that I had been thinking about was easily seen through by Dr. Pei."
"If it's not enough, I'll ask you to lend me more. Besides, what if some villagers want to buy in?"
Jiang Lin said mischievously, "When I return to Beijing, I will accept the money you transfer to me silently. If you ask me to borrow money, I will not reply. I wonder if you still want me to return to Beijing?"
Pei Xu raised three fingers: "May God judge between loyalty and treachery. I don't expect you to return to Beijing."
Jiang Lin pretended to sigh, "The speaker didn't mean it, but the listener took it seriously. You used this reason to reject my bank card two days ago."
Pei Xu adjusted his glasses and asked seriously, "Will you stay in Pei Village?"
The fiery gaze was filled with sincerity. Jiang Lin suddenly felt overwhelmed and looked away. "Let's talk about it later. We are still a long way to go."
Pei Xu was silent for a while, with the tip of his tongue pushing up one cheek. Then he continued, "The most urgent task is to apply to establish an agricultural company, convene a meeting of villagers, confirm the land acquisition work, and whether there are any villagers who want to join the project."
Jiang Lin leaned on the edge of the table, tilted his head and asked him: "Boss Pei, don't you want to trick me into buying a stake?" As he spoke, he pretended to reach into his pocket.
Pei Xu chuckled and teased him: "Boss Jiang is blatantly inviting thieves into the house."
"Is that enough to attract Boss Pei's evil intentions and embolden him?"
Pei Xu tilted the computer screen towards Jiang Lin and opened a loan contract. "I don't dare. I'm afraid I'm catching a turtle in a jar. It's better to borrow openly. As for whether to invest or not, it's up to Boss Jiang to decide."
Jiang Lin took a quick look at the contract and praised, "Boss Pei is a very honest person. I think there is no problem with the contract."
Pei Xu stood up and bowed, saying, "I am grateful to Boss Jiang for his wealth and trust."
Pei Xu drove the electric car to the town. Jiang Lin moved a chair and sat in the yard. "Director team, I have a new filming plan. Do you want to listen to it?"
"You say." A casual response came from the intercom.
"I don't like your attitude. As far as I know, the other four guests have entered the slack season and have nothing to do in the village all day, wandering around the village and playing around. If you want to save this show, all of you must come together to discuss it with me within ten minutes. I will not wait any longer."
The negotiations between the two sides officially began, and Jiang Lin took the initiative: "I have a project. The other four permanent guests can all gather in Peijia Village to participate, and no longer record separately. Otherwise, no matter whether you want to edit in the post-production direction to quarrel or make progress in harmony, there will be no material to edit. Domestic entertainment variety shows have long proved that group recording and broadcasting have better effects."
"So what are your conditions?"
"I will set up an agricultural company with Pei Xu, and then set up an official company account to promote the content of the program and other things we want to express. You need to provide some unpublished filming materials, and you have no right to interfere with the operation of the account."
The staff looked at each other in bewilderment and silence fell.
Jiang Lin said in a confident tone of a superior: "Second, provide us with two vehicles. Note! They are four-wheeled vehicles, not electric donkeys."
The staff wrote down his request in a notebook.
Third: "Some of our subsequent activities will also be included in your regular publicity, such as our live broadcasts of selling goods."
After a heated discussion, the director team unanimously agreed to Jiang Lin's conditions and humbly asked him how to carry out the program's publicity work.
Jiang Lin walked out of the director's meeting room triumphantly, but Pei Xu dragged him to the village committee without saying a word.
A magnetic male voice came from the loudspeaker on the telephone pole in Peijia Village: "Attention, all villagers of Peijia Village, I am Pei Xu. I would like to invite everyone, regardless of gender, age or status, to gather at the Peijia Village Committee at 8 o'clock after dinner to discuss how to make money! Please don't miss it! Important things should be said three times."
Pei Xu repeatedly broadcast the news on the radio, and the villagers stood at the gate and listened carefully on the road.
Jiang Lin, like a beneficiary who has already made money, smiled and said loudly into the microphone: "Dear villagers, you will not have this opportunity outside Peijia Village. I hope you will be the first to try it. See you tonight at 8 o'clock. Bring your own stool."
Three solar lights on the roof of the village committee building illuminated the concrete floor. Villagers arrived one after another with small plastic stools. The whole venue was in chaos. Children were playing nearby. Pei Xu stood on the table with a loudspeaker to tell everyone his ideas, and Jiang Lin supplemented them at the right time.
The noisy meeting finally ended. Pei Xu and Jiang Lin's voices were a little hoarse. It was so difficult to maintain order in the meeting room!
The crowd had left. Jiang Lin sorted out the documents while saying, "Boss Pei, the partner recruitment conference has become a direct recruitment site for the boss. How do you feel about it?"
Pei Xu sighed softly, "As expected, it's hard to change their minds for the time being. Once they see the benefits, they will naturally join."
"People sometimes cannot earn wealth beyond their knowledge, so take your time. At least tonight we have solved the problem of collecting land and employees for free, which is a big step forward."
The two were like conjoined twins, working together to contact the manufacturers of slaked lime and organic fertilizer. Pei Xu turned off his computer, rubbed his eyes, and said, "They will deliver 60 tons of slaked lime tomorrow, and 70 tons of organic fertilizer the day after tomorrow."
Jiang Lin looked at the phone vibrating in his pocket and said with a smile: "Tomorrow the unlucky guys will arrive at the battlefield. We can't be the only ones to suffer with the 130-ton weight." He subconsciously touched his shoulder and said, "I can already feel my shoulder starting to hurt."
Pei Xu patted his left shoulder with one hand, "Strong man, haven't you gotten used to carrying sugarcane yet?"
