Men and women eating in the courtyard

"no problem"

Ai Jiaqing looked at Li Xuewu for several seconds, then smiled slightly, nodded and said, "We can talk."

"Then be honest and honest."

After Li Xuewu waited for Li Huaide and Jing Yunong to sit down on the long sofa, he sat on the single sofa diagonally opposite her.

He likes this position very much. From a psychological perspective, he will not be too rigid or extreme in negotiations.

Choosing a single sofa clearly informed the other party that he was the protagonist of today's negotiation.

Li Huaide and Jing Yunong felt relieved and did not speak after sitting down, but just listened.

At this time, there is no need to talk about red tape. Everyone is here for money, so just be a secular person.

"I want to know your goals for this operation, everything."

Li Xuewu emphasized, looked at Ai Jiaqing seriously and said: "This is the basis for cooperation."

"Cooperation requires reciprocity"

Ai Jiaqing glanced at Li Huaide and Jing Yunong, picked up the tea cup and said slowly: "It seems that the steel rolling mill is still very powerful."

Li Xuewu's eyes moved, but he did not immediately answer her words. Instead, he straightened his jacket, sat upright, and then looked at her and said: "The steel rolling mill has a lot of money, but none of it is superfluous. ".

"..."

Ai Jiaqing's hand holding the tea cup paused, her eyes lowered, she put down the cup and said, "The money you have in Oriental Times Bank is not enough for admission."

"Then it depends on whether the show is exciting or not."

Li Xuewu said seriously: "If it's exciting, it's worth investing in, it's just a ticket."

"Then let's talk about how much you can get."

Ai Jiaqing also sat up straight, looked at Li Xuewu and raised his eyebrows, seemingly in embarrassment but also with expectation.

Li Xuewu looked at her, paused for more than ten seconds, and then said: "For all trade projects and tertiary industry factories, Oriental Times Bank is willing to provide mortgage loans..."

Having said this, Ai Jiaqing's eyes moved slightly. She knew that Li Xuewu was related to the Lou family of the newly emerged Oriental clan in Hong Kong City, but she did not expect that the relationship was so deep.

It is really rare to get a mortgage loan from a Hong Kong city bank using a mainland property.

Especially since Li Xuewu didn't finish what he said, he left a hole, like a blank check, which he could fill in at will.

Ai Jiaqing did not have a very intuitive impression of the trading industry and tertiary industry he mentioned.

She didn't know how much it was worth, or how much she could borrow.

But she knew that the joint trade was transported by train, and the train was the rolling mill's own.

The tertiary industries of the steel rolling mill include existing automobiles, hardware, electronics, etc.

Although these industries have just begun to develop, their strong momentum and promising future convinced her that this loan was more than what she said was the ticket.

However, Li Xuewu did not have full power to make the decision. She knew very well that Li Xuewu's power in the steel rolling mill was not small, but it was definitely not enough to cover the sky with one hand.

At this time, Ai Jiaqing looked at Li Huaide and Jing Yunong, who was in charge of finance.

Jing Yunong frowned slightly and looked at the two of them. When he saw her looking over, he didn't express anything.

Instead, it was Li Huaide who took the initiative to sit up straight, raised his hand to indicate the direction of Li Xuewu, and said to Ai Jiaqing: "Comrade Xuewu is responsible for the trade and economic operations of the steel rolling mill."

After saying this, it is basically certain that Li Xuewu has the authority to represent the company in the negotiations at the steel rolling mill.

It can only be trade and economic operations, and cannot affect its own steel rolling and metallurgical industries.

In other words, Lao Li was very courageous and gave Li Xuewu all the money he had saved over the past year to make a huge gamble.

As for why he was so courageous and determined, both Jing Yunong and Li Xuewu trusted him. We will talk about this later.

Now, Ai Jiaqing knew in her mind that the opponent had shown her cards and it was time for her to play her cards.

"Since the second half of last year, the situation in Hong Kong and Macao has become unstable."

Ai Jiaqing said slowly: "Especially when the economic situation in the two places is severely declining and people's livelihood is difficult to maintain, the population continues to grow, managers do not act, and safety is not guaranteed."

After briefly explaining the background, she glanced at the three of them and saw that they all understood. She knew that the cadres in the mainland were also paying attention to the news in the south.

"On the basis of boosting the economy and ensuring people's livelihood, Ng Fung Hong should further stabilize the market situation and expand its economic influence..."

Ai Jiaqing's words were a bit false, but Li Xuewu and the other three understood. Naturally, some words were inconvenient to say directly.

But everyone who understands understands.

The market economy has its cruel and realistic side. Whether you want to rescue the market or stabilize the market, the premise is that you must have a certain degree of influence and execution.

This is what Wu Feng Xing wants now. He must first establish his own foothold before he can pull others ashore.

"so!"

After Ai Jiaqing finished speaking, Li Xuewu asked directly: "The target is the financial industry and commercial trade, right?"

"You can say that"

Ai Jiaqing glanced at Li Xuewu's straightforward words. At this moment, she felt that Li Xuewu was a little eager for quick success.

Li Xuewu didn't pay attention to her look. He invested tens of millions, no matter how cautious and philistine he was, he didn't feel embarrassed.

"Financial investment is nothing more than the securities market and bond market. Precious metals, foreign exchange and real estate also have certain ups and downs in this environment."

Although Li Xuewu is a layman in finance, he is also reading books and learning knowledge in this area during this time.

Of course, no matter how much he learns, he is not a professional. He can understand and talk about it, but he can never do real investment.

Not to mention investment, he can't even do the most basic business. He can't make money beyond his cognition.

But he now has resources in his hands, and what he can leverage is definitely not just to let professionals help him make money, but also to have a deeper influence.

"Not just these"

Ai Jiaqing looked at Li Xuewu deeply, and then explained: "Our primary goal is to stabilize the situation and protect people's livelihood, so the scope is very wide, not as absolute as you say."

"But I at least need your expected profit in economic operations"

Li Xuewu sat back in his chair, pursed his lips, and said: "Using our reserves in the Oriental Times Bank, and needing steel raw materials, I want double feedback."

"Now"

He nodded slightly and said to Ai Jiaqing: "You want to raise the threshold for cooperation, how much should I ask?"

Ai Jiaqing knew that Li Xuewu was difficult to deal with, and knew that his vision in economics was much higher than his understanding of economics.

You may feel that he is not so professional when discussing economics, but you must not ignore his keen sense of smell and thinking about money.

For example, this time she suddenly visited, just met once, and sat down and talked for no more than five minutes, but he already had a plan.

And after leaving with Li Huaide for a few hours, when he came back, the conversation went straight to the point.

It was no longer a loan, nor a favor, but the cruelty and bloodiness exposed by the shark after smelling fresh blood.

If it was just a loan or a loan cooperation, Li Xuewu would not be so aggressive.

The unyielding negotiation made Ai Jiaqing feel that this was the business Grandet.

"How about I invite you to go to Gangcheng to participate in this action as the commercial representative of Wufenghang?"

Ai Jiaqing said in a somewhat stiff tone: "The profit division can be calculated according to the equal investment ratio."

"Hehe~"

Li Xuewu heard the other party's angry words, chuckled without comment, and then took a sip of the teacup.

Jing Yunong's eyes looking at him were also quite meaningful.

The scene was a bit stalemate for a while, and no one in the reception room wanted to break the silence first.

Li Huaide sat there calmly, with his eyebrows lowered, like an old cat sleeping.

Only his eyebrows twitched slightly from time to time, which could also reflect that he was thinking intensely, and his claws were still sharp and restrained.

If the investment of tens of millions failed, his previous efforts in the steel mill would be wasted and he would have to start all over again.

At this time, no one could suppress such a big failure, not even him.

But the temptation of huge profits, especially the opportunity to extend the tentacles of foreign trade to the port city, made him have to think carefully again.

Li Xuewu did not say it at the factory office meeting, but he was very straightforward and clear when communicating with him and several other deputy leaders.

This time, Wufengxing must have been holding the imperial edict in his hand for investment, and no matter how he acted, it would not be excessive.

The steel mill took advantage of the opportunity to seek wealth and power, and wanted more.

Whether it was capital operation or business cooperation, such a large-scale action must have a sufficient foundation of trust.

It is not easy to make the steel mill trust Wufengxing, and it is even more difficult to make Wufengxing trust the steel mill.

Therefore, the necessary prerequisite for equal cooperation is closer cooperation and communication, and even interweaving fate together.

Li Xuewu may not be able to calculate the fate and fortune of other companies, but he dares to say that Wufengxing will have no rivals in the next 20 years.

Resource operation can never be understood by the market economy, let alone simply explained by market laws.

You can do without building materials, you can do without mainland goods, but you can try not to eat mainland water, rice, flour, grain, oil, meat, eggs and milk.

Lijiapo is a particularly realistic example. In the future, even the country where water use has become a problem, do you think he has the backbone to speak loudly?

Ai Jia's green cheeks were slightly bulging, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Li Xuewu gradually changed from sharp to helpless, and finally calm and without edge.

Seeing her change so much, even Jing Yunong felt that Li Xuewu was a little bit fussy.

Of course, she didn't sit crookedly, and knew whose meal she was eating. She was thinking about it in her heart, but her face was still serious.

"It's impossible to do what you said"

Ai Jiaqing shook her head slightly, looked at Li Xuewu and said seriously: "Absolute benefits don't have absolute balance. It doesn't make any sense for our two units to ask for too much."

Having said that, she looked at Li Huaide and Jing Yunong and nodded slowly: "I firmly believe that Red Star Steel Rolling Mill has expectations for future cooperation and has goals for development in the new era."

Li Huaide didn't respond, but he had put down the teacup and listened to her seriously.

Lao Li's business level is average, not to mention production, and he really can't keep up with the pace in terms of economy.

It's a bit difficult for you to let him talk and negotiate, but he can still understand it.

At this moment, he only thinks and doesn't express his opinion, giving Li Xuewu, who is the main negotiator, the greatest room for easing.

If Li Xuewu feels that the cooperation is not appropriate, Jing Yunong can speak out against it, and he can also veto it with one vote, which will not embarrass Li Xuewu.

Ai Jiaqing was trying to avoid falling into this embarrassing situation, so he changed his persuasion target and explained his ideas to the two of them.

But the effect was not good. Both Li Huaide and Jing Yunong could listen but refused to speak.

She was also a little amused and angry. She was even more curious about the power structure of the steel mill and how they trusted a deputy-division-level cadre to come out and handle such a big thing.

Ai Jiaqing was curious. In fact, she was looking outside the building and could not see the situation inside.

The construction of the steel mill's trade project and the tertiary economy has its own particularity and inevitability.

The three people present today basically represent the vested interests of the two projects and the ownership of the cake.

If steel raw materials are the assets of the steel mill, then the funds and trade are all the work achievements of the three people.

Now they are just participating in a gamble that is bound to happen in the era.

If they lose, at most they will be transferred and start over.

If they win, the construction funds for the steel mill in the next three years will be settled, and Jing Yunong will no longer have to face everyone with a stinky face.

In the communication and reporting, Li Xuewu not only estimated the development funds for the next three years, but also the full opening of foreign trade.

Now, when Ai Jiaqing finished speaking and looked a little defeated, Li Xuewu suddenly said, "We can talk about the benefits, but the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill wants the import and export rights of Wufeng Bank."

"You...!"

Ai Jiaqing suddenly turned around and looked at Li Xuewu and asked seriously, "Are you sure you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course!"

Li Xuewu raised his head slightly and looked at Ai Jiaqing and said, "Absolute benefits do not have absolute balance."

He returned this sentence to the other party intact, and emphasized his tone.

This made Jing Yunong's mouth twitch slightly, and he hurriedly lowered his head to drink tea to hide his smile.

Ai Jiaqing did not have the energy to pay attention to the changes in the expressions of the two leaders of the steel rolling mill. She stared at Li Xuewu's eyes, narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked again, "What do you want to do?"

"Development"

Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "Our factory needs to go out and bring in, and we need more space and support."

Ai Jiaqing looked at him deeply and did not ask any more questions. What she wanted to ask was not Li Xuewu's answer, but his attitude.

It was the attitude of the steel mill!

She was just wondering why the steel mill was uncharacteristically hesitant to agree to her request when she left.

Turning around and coming back, he kept silent about borrowing money and goods, but talked about cooperation instead.

Now she understood that Li Xuewu's emphasis on doubling the income at the beginning was a complete cover and a bait to catch himself.

The truth was revealed. When the matter was discussed until now, he had almost explained everything, and he opened his crocodile mouth.

Now, Li Huaide was no longer stretching, and Jing Yunong was no longer performing. They looked at Ai Jiaqing with sharp eyes.

From the beginning, their trust and support for Li Xuewu came from the opportunities for foreign import and export trade that this cooperation could open up.

Look carefully, what Li Xuewu just proposed was not the right to import and export trade, but the right to import and export trade of Wufeng Bank.

What does it mean?

In the current foreign trade environment, import and export commodities must follow the unified arrangements of import and export companies, including order acceptance, contract signing, production, settlement, etc.

But there are always some companies that are out of the three realms and not in the five elements, such as Wufenghang, such as China Resources, etc.

When they perform import and export trade work, they directly connect with production factories or industrial management, and there is basically no mobilization and use of foreign exchange.

In other words, their roots are abroad, development is abroad, and operations are abroad.

Now Li Xuewu proposed to share the import and export trade rights of Wufenghang through this investment cooperation of the steel rolling mill, and then cooperate with the existing business layout of the steel rolling mill. What do you think will happen in the future?

The three-year construction funds can be solved, and the leading development advantages of ten or twenty years will be established. This is priceless.

It is this goal that makes Li Huaide excited, Cheng Kaiyuan give in, and all factory leaders support it.

Of course, Li Xuewu will not put forward this point of view right away. You can imagine the consequences of doing so by looking at Ai Jiaqing's current reaction.

Even if it is proposed now, it still does not get a positive response from Ai Jiaqing.

Li Xuewu was not in a hurry to replenish the chips, nor did he urge her. He just sat there casually, waiting for her decision.

Ai Jiaqing closed her eyes slightly, thinking quickly about the pros and cons of this cooperation.

It can be said that Li Xuewu gave her, Wufeng Bank, and the entire plan a big problem.

You can say that it’s better to refuse now. Both sides have no losses. Are you afraid that Hongxing Steel Mill will take the money to operate in Gangcheng?

Of course not. Don’t look at her sitting here on behalf of Wufeng Bank to negotiate. Hongxing Steel Mill dares to go all in.

But if they really asked them to go by themselves, or someone else to negotiate, it might not be possible to reach this point today.

Especially time is tight, her flight in the afternoon, it’s not the steel mill that is anxious, but her.

“I want to make a call”

Ai Jiaqing opened her eyes and said, then stood up and walked out.

Li Xuewu leaned sideways, followed her with his eyes, and said jokingly: "Can we call Hongcheng from here?"

"It's Xiyuan!"

Ai Jiaqing replied unhappily, and left without looking back.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows when he saw Jing Yunong's eyes looking at him, with an expression that said I am innocent and I didn't provoke her.

Jing Yunong looked at him, his mouth twitched, and then he pouted and asked softly: "How confident are you?"

"Only 10% when I first entered the door"

Li Xuewu raised a finger, then blinked his left eye lightly, and said with a sly smile: "Now, it's still 10%."

"You...!"

Jing Yunong was about to glare at Li Xuewu when he saw that Li Xuewu was playing tricks on him.

Li Xuewu then explained: "Now there is still 10%, she chose to refuse."

"Don't be too confident!"

Reacting to the meaning of Li Xuewu's words, Jing Yunong glared at him with a reproachful look, but nodded at him.

Li Huaide sat there listening to the conversation between the two, and his face also showed a complicated expression.

He is now afraid that Ai Jiaqing will agree, and he is also afraid that Ai Jiaqing will refuse.

If they really want to start cooperation, it means that in a short period of time, the steel mill will have to bet all its limited resources on Wufenghang.

If it refuses, it means that the steel mill has lost an opportunity to take off, and it will be difficult to have such a loophole in the future.

Jing Yunong thought for a moment and asked Li Xuewu softly: "Why did she come to us to borrow money, and why did she agree to cooperate with us?"

"Two points"

Li Xuewu raised two fingers, the index finger and the middle finger, pressed the index finger and explained: "Wufenghang has extensive cooperation in the mainland, but most of them are grain, oil and non-staple food, and few heavy industries."

"The second point"

He shook the remaining finger and explained: "She is sure that we dare to borrow money because our foreign trade depends on Wufenghang."

Jing Yunong now understands that she didn't notice the finger coming, but she thought clearly.

The steel rolling mill cooperated with Wufenghang in the food industry, and cooperated with Dongfeng Trade as a basis to trade hardware and other commodities.

All import and export trade, except for ships, which were negotiated by themselves, had to go through Dongfeng Trade to complete the export work.

Other imports such as equipment and technology imports require coordination and cooperation between Oriental Times Bank and Wufenghang.

In other words, if the steel mill does not agree to the loan, it means that the cooperative relationship with Wufeng Bank will be broken, which will have a far-reaching impact on future trade work.

Perhaps the other party did not expect that Li Xuewu is good at taking advantage of the situation and making Ai Jiaqing lose more than he gains.

You are threatening me with the import and export trade authority, so I will go all in and play with you, but I will take away your trump card.

On the one hand, it is to change the way of cooperation, and on the other hand, it is to increase the intensity of cooperation. Now the pressure is transferred to Wufeng Bank.

Jing Yunong did not ask anything else, and she was not surprised that Ai Jiaqing could call Xiyuan.

The current economic work is more difficult than ever before.

Let alone tens of millions of investments, even millions of dollars will alarm the higher-ups.

The most important thing is that this time the steel mill did not use the resources of the mainland. In addition to the output of heavy industrial raw materials, all the funds came from the port city.

Putting aside the risks, the steel mill did not lose anything. It just brought in the Oriental Times Bank as a guarantee.

In any case, no matter how much Wufeng Bank makes this time, the steel mill and the bank will take part of it.

As for losing money, or making a loss, that is nonsense.

If Ai Jiaqing really dares to say that he has lost money on this investment, he dares to take the accountant to the port city to audit it personally.

He has played football all his life, and he has never heard of a professional team losing to a kindergarten group!

Of course, if you insist on talking about the guys who eat sea cucumbers, just pretend that he never said this.

It's not that he is cowardly, who is cowardly knows.

If you want to ask Ai Jiaqing if he can really call there, Li Xuewu believes it or not.

This call was not made by him, even if he was allowed to listen to the call, he was not 100% sure that it was true.

Unless he was taken to the interview in person and met the other party in person, he would be sure that it was true.

Of course, when he met the other party in person, he might not be so bold to talk.

The call was not very long, but not short either. Fortunately, it was not the steel mill that was anxious.

Li Huaide was not in a hurry, but he was a little anxious. He didn't say a word for a long time, fearing that if he said something wrong, money would jump out of his mouth.

Li Xuewu, who sold anxiety to him, drank tea leisurely, listened to the noise coming from the corridor, and his mouth curled up naturally.

——

"Why do I feel that there are more foreigners in the International Hotel?"

Jing Yunong looked back at the hotel and asked Li Xuewu in confusion.

Li Xuewu also took a look unexpectedly. In the restaurant on the first floor, there were actually a few foreigners who were unfamiliar with drinking afternoon tea.

This is very dry. Foreigners are really leisurely at work. They report to work at 9 o'clock in the morning and eat at 11:30.

Take a break at noon, go to work at 1:30, and it's time for afternoon tea again at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Aren't the countries where these foreigners live in bourgeois economic societies?

In foreign countries, shouldn't the business owners wave their hands and command managers to wave small whips passionately to drive the workers to do hard labor?

Oh, in modern civilized society, business owners have more hidden and civilized ways.

They don't need to exhort managers to work harder, they just need to slip some so-called options or something else through their fingers, and the managers will be ferocious and pledge their loyalty to the death.

As for the productivity and workers, they don't need to wave the whip anymore, it's more energy to draw big pictures, coffee is more effective than the whip.

So when Li Xuewu looked at the foreigners drinking coffee and looking at documents in the glass window, he didn't feel envious at all.

Zhang Songying stood behind the two and explained softly: "They are foreign affairs personnel on this street, and some are tour groups, business representatives and travel reporters."

As she said this, she glanced at the foreigner who was looking over there, smiling and nodding in greeting, and introduced: "He is from Germany, his name is Max."

Li Xuewu also smiled back and nodded slowly, returning the courtesy of the other party.

Turning his head, he looked at Zhang Songying and asked, "Germany is so far away, why are you here?"

"Say he's a reporter"

Zhang Songying reminded softly: "On weekdays, I am accompanied by the reception cadres of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who take photos and seem to write travel notes."

"Meet him later"

Seeing that the driver had already driven over, Li Xuewu followed Jing Yunong into the car.

Under Zhang Songying's watch, the Modu car drove steadily out of the compound.

Li Huaide did not accompany him, but took the initiative to send Ai Jiaqing to the airport.

If it were in the past, of course Li Xuewu would send it off, or let the other party make his own arrangements.

But the situation is different now. Li Huaide will always do his best to serve as a landlord.

In the car, Jing Yunong looked at the scenery receding outside the window, with some worry on his eyebrows, but his face was no longer as serious as when he first arrived.

At this moment, he remembered what Li Xuewu had just said, glanced at his side, and asked, "Are you interested in those foreigners?"

"Huh? Haha~"

Li Xuewu was stunned for a moment, then laughed. When Jing Yunong glared at him, he explained: "I'm not interested in foreigners, but I want foreigners to be interested in me."

"What's the meaning?"

Jing Yunong felt that Li Xuewu was so talkative today that he had not yet come out of the rhythm of negotiations.

Li Xuewu pointed out the window and asked Jing Yunong: "In this cold winter season with no wind or snow, what do you think foreigners are doing here?"

"How could I know where to go~"

Jing Yunong curled his lips, crossed his arms and said, "Speak directly if you have something to say, and stop beating around the bush, I can't turn you around."

This is so absolute. She was not like this at the International Hotel just now...

It had been some time since Li Huaide sent Ai Jiaqing away. Jing Yunong didn't say he would go back immediately. Instead, he took him back to the reception room and discussed it for a long time.

"Foreigners have traveled thousands of miles and gone through complicated customs procedures, so they can't just come and have a look, right?"

Li Xuewu raised his hand and pointed behind him with his thumb, and said: "If you call me a journalist, you actually have the same virtues as the earlier preaching pastors."

"you mean……"

Jing Yunong's eyes lit up and he asked, "Are they here to explore the road?"

“You can’t just come here for tourism.”

Li Xuewu twitched his lips, patted Jing Yunong's round thigh, and reminded softly: "The more closed the environment, the more complex the economy will be."

Jing Yunong glared at him and rolled his eyes. He raised his hand and grabbed his hand to remind him to pay attention.

Although Li Xue didn't follow, the driver was driving right in front.

Besides, she doesn't like others touching her, especially in front of outsiders.

She had no resistance when faced with Li Xuewu's charm, but in the car and at work, she didn't want this to affect her independent thinking.

Li Xuewu looked at her funny, she was too persistent.

Li Huaide and he both patted their knees and patted their arms. The leader sat in the back seat of the car and made gestures during the conversation, or reminded the other party that some actions were not excessive.

Besides, he is not a lustful ghost who really wants to take advantage of the other party.

Just taking a photo casually, getting used to it, made Jing Yunong nervous.

"Cough~"

She pretended to cough seriously, glanced ahead, and asked Li Xuewu, "What are you going to do?"

"What do you mean?"

Li Xuewu glanced at her. It would have been better if she hadn't coughed just now. Such a deliberate move made the driver's ears twitch.

Of course, nothing will happen to the driver. He didn't do anything extraordinary. The topic the two of them talked about now was not a secret.

"I'm asking you, what are you going to do about the foreigners coming to the international hotel?"

Jing Yunong frowned slightly, looked at him and asked, "Didn't you just say you wanted to meet them?"

"Oh~"

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "There is such an idea, but I have never been exposed to it."

After speaking, he smiled and said to Jing Yunong: "If there are dates but no dates, just hit three poles."

"Nonsense~"

Jing Yunong curled his lips, knowing that this person was not serious once he was serious.

Too lazy to ask him any more, he changed the subject and said, "Wu Feng Xing will use that fund for more than half a year. What do you think?"

"Well, it's really difficult."

Li Xuewu nodded slowly, put on a serious expression, and said: "But from the other party's point of view, half a year is really not a long time. Market adjustment is not that simple."

After speaking, he raised his head slightly and said thoughtfully: "I am mentally prepared for the other party to use it beyond the deadline."

"Overdue? How long?"

Jing Yunong looked at him and said: "The money for our factory is used to introduce technology and equipment, and even more..."

"Yeah~Yeah~I know"

Li Xuewu interrupted her and explained seriously: "They said it's half a year, but you have to take a year to prepare."

"A year?!"

Jing Yunong was about to jump up and down, and now his brows were furrowed again, saying: "I didn't have any money to begin with, and now it's another year, I'm really going to starve!"

"Even if I have to starve, I have to hold on"

Li Xuewu said calmly: "At least from now on, we can plan to export more products."

"I'm afraid it's just a drop in the bucket. No matter how much business we have, it can't alleviate this kind of financial pressure"

Jing Yunong knew that getting angry and anxious would not solve the problem, and now he said sadly: "I really doubt whether I can survive the first half of the year."

"Haha, you're talking too seriously"

Li Xuewu chuckled, and when he saw her staring at him, he smiled a little embarrassedly and comforted her: "Don't worry, there will be a way."

"I hope you have more solutions than difficulties"

Jing Yunong no longer had the heart to argue with him, and was still thinking about how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

Wufeng Bank put forward a cooperation requirement, that is, the income should be calculated by halving the investment ratio.

In addition, if the steel mill uses Wufeng Bank's import and export rights, it must fully make up for the tariffs generated by this part of the trade.

From this point, it can also be seen that Wufeng Bank does not pay tariffs on some things.

You ask them why they are so wild?

Of course, their way is so wild.

Li Xuewu doesn't care whether to pay taxes or not. If he really pays taxes, things will be easier.

At least the import and export trade goods are legalized, and they are not under the Wufeng Bank brand.

For the rest, regarding the basic steel raw materials urgently transferred to the port city this month, and the tertiary products currently produced by the steel mill, the settlement period is extended and may be settled together with the income.

This point is guaranteed by the Oriental Times Bank and can be trusted.

From the perspective of the Oriental Times Bank, the steel mill mortgaged 23 million, plus the more than 10 million deposited by the steel mill in the bank, and the payment for goods, the investment of nearly 45 million directly filled this cooperation.

Even if Ai Jiaqing brought back the order from Xiyuan, this fund was enough for Li Huaide to straighten his back and coordinate business with the people above.

Yes, the one who owes money is the boss.

Now the steel mill has mortgaged part of its business, and the money has been taken away by Wufeng Bank.

He has no money in his hand, but owes a large sum of money to the bank, so he is the boss now.

Don't look for him if there is any merger mess in the future, the landlord has no surplus food.

Another thing is that the steel mill now has the import and export trade authority of Wufeng Bank, and can carry out trade work for specific commodities.

Li Xuewu and Li Huaide discussed in advance that not only the steel mill's own products should be exported, but also the products of the tertiary industry and the joint industry should be exported in an integrated manner.

It is a very simple truth that it is beneficial to the development of the steel mill to contact the external environment as soon as possible and participate in the world competition as soon as possible.

This is also an opportunity, and the reason for applying for groupization is more sufficient and the strength is stronger.

After this cooperation, the cooperation between Wufeng Bank and Red Star Steel Mill in Gangcheng and Beijing will be closer.

Wufenghang has advantages in the port city, and the steel mill has advantages in Beijing. The reason why Ai Jiaqing coordinated with the above is that the advantages of both sides complement each other.

While further supplementing Wufenghang's market expansion needs, it has also increased its own strength and can feed back to the mainland economy.

The products of the steel mill are more designed and manufactured for foreign trade orders. If they are really invested in the mainland market, they will definitely not make as much money as foreign trade.

Let me tell you another fact. Is it worth it to be able to get Wufenghang to endorse the group development of the steel mill?

Li Huaide can do the math in his mind, so you saw that he took the initiative to send Ai Jiaqing to the airport.

What the steel mill needs to do next is to stabilize its own development, quickly advance all projects, and realize normal production.

In this process, the funds and goods used by Wufenghang will be recovered.

The proceeds from the liquidation will be used for the fundamental expansion of the steel mill's steel rolling industry and metallurgical industry.

In the development outline of the steel mill in the next five years, it has been clearly proposed to build a world-class excellent heavy industrial enterprise.

Steel rolling and metallurgy are the foundation, and a huge amount of money needs to be invested. This old horse can't grow fat without eating night grass.

If the development is really gradual, it will take at least five years to complete the construction of the factory area, and at least seven to eight years to truly achieve normal production.

No one knows better than Li Huaide and Li Xuewu what time means to the steel rolling mill and to them.

The faster Li Huaide achieves the goal of groupization in the next few years, the more stable he can stand in the position of the steel rolling mill.

If the rising period stretches for five or eight years, he may be transferred.

For Li Huaide and Li Xuewu, this is undoubtedly a loss.

The best solution is that Li Huaide should be at the forefront and progress with the development of the enterprise.

When the enterprise's progress ends, he will lose his role.

Li Xuewu does not want Li Huaide to end his career in the steel rolling mill so early. It seems that such a "useful" leader is really rare.

——

The implementation procedure of Friday's incident was communicated and agreed between Ai Jiaqing and Jing Yunong.

The cooperation procedures were completed by Ding Zigui, the commissioner, under the guidance of Li Huaide.

Although Lao Li is so busy, he is very energetic.

When the dust settled and the cooperation was reached, his worries were swept away, and the only thing left was to move forward.

He really didn't dare to set any goals for this project, but implicitly, the three of them were determined to succeed and not fail.

After lunch on Saturday, Li Xuewu had no time to rest, so Peng Xiaoli carried his luggage and sent him downstairs to the main office building.

Li Huaide's car was already waiting here, and the driver helped Peng Xiaoli put the luggage in the trunk.

After waiting for a few minutes, Li Huaide also came down from the building. The two agreed to go to Tianjin for a "meeting" together.

The weather was too cold, and the two hadn't seen each other for ten or eight years, so there was nothing to talk about outside.

After listening to Li Huaide's wave of his hand, he got on the car. There was no secretary accompanying him, only a driver, which made him look much more relaxed.

"When will the kind of bus you mentioned last meeting be available?"

"The frame has been arranged, and it is still waiting for the ship to ship out."

Li Xuewu smiled and replied: "It will probably take a month from Gangcheng to Tianjin."

"Oh, I really want to see what the car you're talking about looks like."

Li Huaide is a complicated person. He was always worried about gains and losses when investing. His cautious look was like a tug at his intestines.

But when the matter was over, he became generous and wanted to enjoy it!

No, if he eats too much fine grain, won't he get mad?

Old Li needs to be taught a lesson on remembering the bitter past and thinking about the sweet present!
