The Growth System Comes at the Age of Thirty

Chapter 86 Remember to treat me to dinner

Li Beixing's father's name is Li Qiguang.

Not many people may know this name, but when it comes to Hongqi Agriculture, it is still well-known in Jiangbei.

Li Qiguang was able to go from being the leader of the Beijing Sports Team to being worth hundreds of millions today. In addition to being extremely lucky in the times, his own abilities are also not bad.

At least he has a unique vision compared to others.

The so-called Northern Transport Group means that in the past there was not so much vegetable supply in the north in winter, so they would transport vegetables produced in the south in winter and sell them there.

At that time, many rural areas in Jiangbei and even several nearby cities grew peppers, peppers, cucumbers and other economic vegetables. In order to ensure the freshness of the fruits and vegetables, farmers would get up at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night to pick them, and then send them to Beiyun Station one by one at five o'clock. Weighed, loaded and shipped on the spot.

If you're a minute late, the car will leave and they won't take yours, so it's all about getting there sooner rather than later.

Li Qiguang did not read many books. He graduated from junior high school but did not enter high school, so he went out to work.

Those years in the Beiyun Group were very tiring, but I gained a lot of knowledge.

Later, I would just go out and work on my own, and I would still be in the vegetable transportation industry.

From one vehicle at the beginning, it gradually expanded to ten vehicles, and then to signing long-term supply contracts with the surrounding large growers, and even began to get involved in large-scale planting, learning from the advanced agricultural industry development of other provinces and cities. model.

Now it is an industry-leading enterprise in Jiangbei.

There have been some gains and losses over the years, but overall I still make a lot, and my net worth is getting richer and richer.

Li Qiguang doesn't know much about business management. He just remembers that a boss once told him, "I'll pay you for your work. If you do well, I'll pay you more!"

Every time wages and bonuses are paid to everyone, they are all paid in cash. Everyone lines up and walks past the high cash wall.

Anything less than 100 will be paid at 100.

Everyone said privately: "Boss Li is a man of justice!"

Li Qiguang doesn't have many hobbies, fishing is one, and then there is calligraphy and painting, which he has been more interested in in the past two years.

Fortunately, he is more restrained and buys works that do not exceed six figures, mainly for appreciation.

Because he knows that the calligraphy and painting industry is not very high-quality. If you spend too much money in it, you will easily be targeted by others and join forces to create a trap.

He is rich, but he doesn't want to be treated like a fish in water.

…

Today, Li Qiguang came to the company as usual and held a small meeting to deal with matters.

After finishing, I sat in the office drinking tea and listening to audio novels.

At this time, Fatty Liu, the owner of Desheng Ecological Agriculture next door, came over and smiled.

"Brother Guang! Come on, what do you think of my new collection of calligraphy?"

Fatty Liu, whose real name is Liu Deqiang, was a chicken breeder in the forest. He almost lost his pants due to avian influenza, but he managed to survive and his business continued to grow.

Although he is not as rich as Li Qiguang, he is not weak, at least in Jiangbei.

Like Li Qiguang, he likes fishing and collecting calligraphy and paintings.

Li Qiguang took a closer look and said in surprise: "Not bad, it's from Fan Baochong? If it's true, I'm afraid it's not cheap."

Fatty Liu was a little proud: "Brother Guang's appreciation level has improved very quickly."

Li Qiguang chuckled: "Hey, after stepping on some pitfalls, everyone knows that they need to make progress. Your level is high, and I can't be too bad. However, why do you feel that your handwriting is a bit casual?"

Fatty Liu smacked his lips: "Although Fan Baochong is famous, he has a high output. Many of his words are used as favors, which is really casual. But most people only care about his reputation. Guess how much I won this one? of?"

"25?"

"Almost, add a little more."

"It's not expensive if you like it. Fan Baochong's calligraphy is clearly priced on the market."

“…”

Two big bosses who couldn't even get a college diploma together sat together, drinking tea and admiring calligraphy and painting. To outsiders, it seemed a bit arty, but it was not a sign of eagerness to learn and make progress.

If you don’t enjoy making money, then isn’t that money wasted?

As long as they don't get involved in gambling and don't rush into areas they are unfamiliar with, with the speed at which they spend money, they are far from being a loser.

"dad!"

At this time Li Beixing knocked on the door and came in.

"Hey, isn't this Beixing?" Fatty Liu was surprised.

Li Beixing smiled and said, "Hello, Uncle Liu~Long time no see."

Their family has known each other for many years, and she also knows each other's daughter, and they have a good relationship.

"Yeah, I haven't seen you for a while." Fatty Liu laughed.

Li Qiguang asked: "Beixing, what are you doing here?"

Li Beixing smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed: "Didn't I say that I helped you get a lettering two days ago? Uncle Huang has it framed, and I will send it directly to you today."

Upon hearing this, Fatty Liu suddenly became interested: "Oh? Which famous artist's work is it?"

Li Beixing waved his hand quickly: "I'm not a famous person, just a friend. I thought he wrote well, so I asked him to write one for my dad."

Fatty Liu was a little envious: "A filial daughter, Brother Guang, your daughter is much better than my daughter. My daughter knows how to ask me for money."

Li Qiguang chuckled: "Do you still have that little money? Besides, if you don't give her flowers, be careful if the men outside give her flowers."

When Fatty Liu heard this, he felt a severe pain in his cheeks and said quickly: "Look at the words."

Under the gaze of the two, Li Beixing quickly took out the work and displayed it.

Fatty Liu suddenly said "Hey": "This word... is a bit interesting."

At first glance it seems vulgar, but upon second glance, it feels full of charm. The shape and meaning of the brushwork are all unique, not inferior to those of contemporary famous artists.

Something. Li Qiguang had seen it before and felt that it was to his liking. Now that it was framed, it felt even more perfect.

At least it's better than the one hanging in his office now.

He suddenly felt proud: "Yeah, I think it's good too."

Fatty Liu's expression became more serious: "It's not just good, it's quite good! How much did it cost?"

"Twenty thousand."

"Okay, okay! It's a good deal!"

"How does it compare to your Fan Baochong?"

“…”

Well, one is a high-end assembly line, and the other is a small workshop high-end.

Fatty Liu had a confused expression and smacked his lips.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Well, actually, the moment he found it difficult to make a decision, Fan Baochong had already lost this work.

After all, the other party is just an ordinary author whose name is unknown, while Fan Baochong has long been famous all over the world.

However, we are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but we are afraid of comparing goods.

I originally thought that I would spend 270,000 yuan on a calligraphy work by the contemporary famous artist Fan Baochong, but I missed it. But who would have thought that the quality of a calligraphy work by a daughter honoring her father would be as good as that of a famous artist.

This made him a little embarrassed.

The key is only 20,000 yuan!

Twenty thousand, what kind of bike do you want at this price?

He and his friends sometimes have more than this meal!

Buying it and hanging it in your office will at least make you happy for a few days. Isn't it more cost-effective than a meal?

Fatty Liu looked at the signature and asked curiously: "Why haven't I heard of the name Chen Jingle? Are you the new disciple of a big shot in the calligraphy circle? Where are you from?"

Li Beixing smiled and said, "I'm not a disciple of a big boss. I practiced it myself. We are from Jiangbei."

"Is there such a thing as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Jiangbei?!" Fatty Liu's eyes widened.

Li Qiguang laughed beside him: "You are looking down on people. There are more than two million people in Jiangbei. Isn't it normal for a few talents to come out? Didn't the Han Emperor's team from one county eventually dominate the world?"

"Well, that's the truth."

Fatty Liu nodded, looked at Li Beixing, and smiled like a big-bellied Buddha: "Um, Beixing, can you ask my uncle if your friend has any other works? It just needs to be no worse than your dad's one." .The price is negotiable.”

Li Beixing glanced at her father first, and when she saw him smiling and keeping silent, she immediately blinked and said, "Okay, Uncle Liu, I'll ask you later to see if he can customize one for you."

"This is good, this is good!"

Fatty Liu was delighted: "I remember you were teaching in No. 8 Middle School, right? Later, uncle asked the Crocodile Ecological Park to give you tickets for two classes. If you are free on Saturdays and Sundays, you can take the teachers and students for a group autumn outing. Pick up and drop off by car! ”

Li Beixing was surprised and said quickly: "Thank you, Uncle Liu~"

Fatty Liu waved his hand: "It's a small matter, my student brother is so popular, I couldn't ask for it more!"

“…”

…

The two elders continued chatting in the office, and Li Beixing walked to the corridor outside.

Send a message to Chen Jinngle: "Someone has sent you money."

"ha?"

Chen Jingle, who had just finished lunch, was stunned for two seconds when he saw the message, thinking that the other party had sent it by mistake.

Li Beixing explained: "It's calligraphy. Some people are willing to spend 20,000 yuan to buy a calligraphy work from you. They can even accept it if it's more expensive."

Chen Jingle was stunned.

Twenty thousand? !

I'm rough, is it true?

Is the market for my work now open?

And can the price be negotiated?

He couldn't believe it for a moment: "Teacher Li, are you sure you're not kidding me?"

Li Beixing was a little angry and funny: "Do you think I can eat?"

Chen Jingle thought for a while: "It really does."

Help introduce business to him, but you can't treat people to dinner?

The corners of Li Beixing's mouth raised slightly: "Okay, remember to treat me to a meal after everything is done."

"If it's true, then I must ask!"

Although Chen Jingle was very happy, he was not carried away: "Let's talk about the requirements first."

Li Beixing was a little embarrassed, but he was happy with the patronage: "I forgot to ask, the buyer is a middle-aged uncle in his fifties, the owner of Desheng Ecological Agriculture, and he is engaged in the understory chicken breeding business. I originally wanted to ask if you still have If you have any works, I can help you customize them, right?"

Chen Jingle didn't take it seriously: "It can be customized in the first place. Customers can just write whatever they want, and they will pay for it."

"That's good."

Li Beixing breathed a sigh of relief and quickly returned to the office: "Uncle Liu, my friend said yes, do you have any requirements for the content size of the work?"

Fatty Liu thought: "It doesn't matter what you write. The calligraphy must be strong enough. The words you write should be understandable by ordinary people and praised by educated people. Your father's 'God rewards those who work hard' is very good." The size is about the same.”

"Okay, then let me convey it to you."

Li Beixing repeated Fatty Liu's original words.

Chen Jingle looked thoughtful after reading the message.

"Okay, I understand."
