The three people left the hospital and went to the He family's old house.
Before going to the He family's old house, Fang Tianfeng called Zhuang Zheng, the manager of the water plant, and asked him to bring two people to Yunhai to discuss the acquisition of Xingmo Liquor Industry.
At noon, Ning Youlan came over from Yushui County, and the four of them had a lunch. The food was not expensive, but the ingredients were all natural and the cooking level was high. It was much more delicious than most restaurants.
After the meal, Ning Youlan returned to Yushui County, while He Changling took Fang Tianfeng and He Changxiong to the Dongjiang Provincial Government, and Zhuang Zheng also followed.
As the executive deputy governor of Nam Nguyen Province, He Changling is ranked fourth in the first province. According to the principle of reciprocity, Dongjiang should have people with the same position or close status to greet He Changling, but the person who came was the third-ranked deputy governor.
Vice Governor Jiang made the excuse that the two former vice governors were busy and could not come.
Now even Fang Tianfeng, a person outside the officialdom, could see that some people either didn't want He Changling to be too popular, or were trying to avoid suspicion. In short, they were lukewarm towards He Changling.
He Changling took it calmly and talked to Vice Governor Jiang in a friendly manner. A few minutes later, Vice Governor Liu, who ranked fifth, came over with a very enthusiastic attitude and chatted for a while before leaving.
Fang Tianfeng could see that Vice Governor Liu had a close relationship with the He family. Even if today's matter was not in his control, he would still come to see He Changling.
It was the first time that Fang Tianfeng came to the Provincial Government Building. Others regarded him as He Changling's follower, and he was very happy to be at ease.
Later, the Dongjiang Provincial Government sent a car, and accompanied by Vice Governor Jiang, He Changling and Fang Tianfeng went to the Xingmo Yellow Wine Factory.
The car stopped at the entrance of Xingmo Yellow Winery, and everyone got off the car one after another. They saw that the entrance was clean and there were many potted plants. There were also various banners with words such as warm welcome written on them.
There were many cars parked in front of the Xingmo Yellow Wine Factory, and many officials rushed over to shake hands with He Changling one by one.
Fang Tianfeng glanced at them and saw that these people were all city officials. Except for the municipal party committee secretary who was not here, the new mayor and many standing committee members and deputy mayors were present. There were eight of them, and several of them clearly did not need to come. But
But he came here deliberately, obviously he has a deep relationship with the He family.
Among them was Fang Tianfeng's old friend Sun Dacai, the Propaganda Minister of the Municipal Party Committee.
Fang Tianfeng didn't know many people when he was in the provincial government, but several municipal officials shook hands with the two deputy governors, then ignored the others and walked directly to Fang Tianfeng to shake hands with him.
"Master Fang, I didn't expect you to be here." Sun Dacai was the first to shake hands with Fang Tianfeng. On this occasion, he called out Master Fang, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Vice Governor Jiang was stunned for a moment. As a provincial-level official, he didn't have to know other names. But Master Fang's name was well known. A series of major events in Dongjiang recently were almost inseparable from this name. Even Dongjiang No. 1 Secretary Chen Yuewei
Fang Tianfeng was mentioned at the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.
When other municipal officials heard that it was Fang Tianfeng, regardless of their faction, they all came over to shake hands, even the new mayor. Rumors in Dongjiang official circles said that Fang Tianfeng took down the former mayor. If the new mayor saw
Fang Tianfeng ignored him, which was definitely a blatant provocation.
"Hello, Master Fang, I am Tang Wende. I have just taken office as the mayor of Yunhai City. I heard that you are a member of the Dongjiang Taoist Association and an outstanding entrepreneur in our city. I am very happy to see you here." Mayor Tang said with a smile on his face.
Smile.
Fang Tianfeng heard at the dinner table yesterday that Ren Qiyu and other bosses told him that Mayor Tang was an official parachuted from the Beijing Ministry and had a close relationship with Secretary Chen Yuewei.
When the officials nearby saw that even Tang Wende took the initiative to show his goodwill towards Fang Tianfeng, they became even more convinced that Fang Tianfeng had an unusual relationship with Secretary Chen Yuewei.
After the municipal officials finished shaking hands with Fang Tianfeng, Vice Governor Jiang, who had not known Fang Tianfeng's identity before, came over and said with a smile: "Master Fang, you have been hiding this from me all the way. Now let's get to know Jiang Lisheng again."
"Governor Jiang, you're welcome, Fang Tianfeng." Fang Tianfeng smiled and shook hands with Vice Governor Jiang.
Fang Tianfeng had seen the inspection scene of provincial leaders before. At that time, he just watched it from a distance and felt that the people in that scene were very extraordinary. But now that he was in the scene, he realized that they were actually ordinary and nothing special.
Afterwards, Li Xingye, the boss of Xingmo Yellow Wine Co., Ltd., appeared happily and shook hands with everyone.
Li Xingye is over fifty, slightly bald, and looks very kind.
Li Xingye was very excited and kept saying thank you to the leader for coming to inspect. When he arrived in front of He Changling, He Changling pointed at Fang Tianfeng with a smile and said to Li Xingye: "Mr. Li, I also heard about this factory from Tianfeng.
I just came here to take a look. However, we are all foils, Tianfeng and you are the main characters, because Tianfeng heard that you wanted to sell this company, and he was very interested."
Li Xingye's face suddenly turned pale, but he suddenly figured out something, and quickly regained his rosiness. He smiled and said: "Welcome! My son has settled in the United States, and I am preparing to immigrate, so I want to sell the company. Since Mr. Fang, no,
Since Master Fang is interested, we can discuss it. I am very happy to have so many leaders show appreciation today. If Mr. Fang is willing to accept my terms, how about I give him a 10% discount?"
Everyone present looked at Li Xingye and Fang Tianfeng curiously. They all knew that Xingmo Liquor was the largest rice wine company in Dongjiang, and Li Xingye was offering a 10% discount, at least 20 to 30 million yuan cheaper.
Fang Tianfeng said: "Mr. Li is too polite. I heard that you sold it for 200 million, and I think the price is very reasonable. As for other conditions, we can wait for the leaders to complete their inspection before discussing in detail."
Li Xingye nodded and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The officials present were all very shrewd. They originally suspected that He Changling had something to do with his sudden arrival, but now they all saw that he was supporting Fang Tianfeng!
Everyone understood that it was a bit high for a deal worth 200 million to invite the executive vice governor to come to calm down the situation, but it made sense. After all, He Changling was helping his own people.
Vice Governor Jiang smiled and said: "If this deal is negotiated, I will attend the signing ceremony on behalf of the provincial government. The government should encourage and pay attention to private entrepreneurs. If Master Fang can bring Xingmo Distillery back to life, it will
As the country moves towards the world, the government should provide preferential tax exemptions and reductions, after all, it is making a contribution to Dongjiang."
When Fang Tianfeng heard about the tax reduction, he immediately said: "Thank you Governor Jiang and the provincial government for their support. I will remember this sentence. When Xingmo Distillery opens the national market in the future, I will go to the provincial government to ask for preferential policies."
"
"It's good if you have this ambition." Vice Governor Jiang smiled.
As the owner of Xingmo Liquor Industry, Li Xingye felt a little sad. He already understood that he could struggle against the chief priest of Yunhai City, but he had no power to resist against Fang Tianfeng and the two deputy governors.
Xingmo Liquor Industry is obviously a big profit and tax company, but Vice Governor Jiang wiped out Li Xingye's contribution by saying "come back to life", which made Li Xingye feel chilled.
However, Li Xingye then showed a slightly happy smile.
"Priest Meng, even if I burn down this winery, I won't let you make a penny! Now here is the deputy governor, and I want to see how you take it! I want to buy my company for only 20 million. I'm dreaming.
Go for it!”
Li Xingye quickly adjusted his mood and took provincial and municipal leaders to visit the factory and explain the situation inside the factory. Reporters who came occasionally did interviews or took photos.
Most people didn't listen very seriously, but Fang Tianfeng wrote down every word.
Fang Tianfeng looked at Li Xingye's luck. Sure enough, as Ren Qiyu said, a chief priest was suppressing him. On Li Xingye's head, there was a milky-white circle of luck oppressing him.
The milky white religious luck is as thick as two fingers, and it is mainly the belief of hundreds of thousands of followers of the Tianshen Sect in Yunhai City, as well as the religious luck of the Tianshen Sect itself. This religious luck is many times more powerful than ordinary combined luck, second only to official luck.
.
Li Xingye himself has a righteousness as thick as chopsticks and does not have much resentment, which shows that he is a pretty good entrepreneur.
Li Xingye's wealth is slowly decreasing. Only a small part of it is due to the suppression of the religious movement. The more important reason is Li Xingye's own poor management. If Li Xingye does not change the business strategy, Xingmo Distillery will inevitably have problems in the future.
.
When he met the middle-level people in the factory, Fang Tianfeng also used Qi-gazing to check on these people. These people had good luck and no negative luck. It could be seen that there was nothing wrong with the employees themselves, but the winery was not managed well.
Fang Tianfeng noticed something. The employees here have slightly more wealth, which means that their salaries and benefits are good. Part of Li Xingye's righteousness comes from here. Treating employees well means doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, so he naturally has righteousness.
Through luck, Fang Tianfeng can judge that Li Xingye has a high prestige in the company and is a good person. Although his business ability is a bit poor, there is absolutely no problem in production. Because Xingmo Yellow Wine has always had a good reputation in the local area, Fang Tianfeng heard it more than once
Others have praised that the quality of Xingmo Yellow Wine has remained unchanged for many years, but the marketing is poor and they believe too much that the aroma of the wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley.
He Changling had no interest in this place in the first place. He was not interested in drinking, so he did not conduct in-depth research. He just visited it and left. Fang Tianfeng and the water plant manager Zhuang Zheng stayed behind and began to negotiate the acquisition plan with Li Xingye.
Fang Tianfeng knew very well that the negotiation was just the beginning, and the drafting of the contract would be troublesome later on. The lawyer and the person in charge had to read every word carefully and there could be no problems at all. Even if he had a photographic memory, he would be very tired.
After all, Fang Tianfeng was a semi-hands-off shopkeeper, so Zhuang Zheng was responsible for the negotiations. However, when important issues were discussed, Zhuang Zheng would turn to look at Fang Tianfeng, and Fang Tianfeng would make the final decision.
In fact, Fang Tianfeng basically let Zhuang Zheng make the decision, because he had already regarded Zhuang Zheng as a professional manager. It was not a real big problem and he did not need to intervene. Professional matters were left to professionals.
Soon, Li Xingye said a very harsh condition, that is, regarding the company's employee remuneration, they can only be promoted but not demoted, and unless there is a good reason, layoffs are not allowed for any excuse.
Zhuang Zheng argued that it was the right of the new company's management to make reasonable layoffs based on the company's operating conditions. This condition was extremely unreasonable.
Then, Li Xingye and Zhuang Zheng started to fight.
No one could convince anyone, and the atmosphere was tense.
Finally, Zhuang Zheng looked at Fang Tianfeng, he was really helpless now.
Fang Tianfeng smiled slightly and asked Li Xingye: "Mr. Li, if there are employees who cannot complete their jobs, is it okay for me to lay off employees?"
"Of course there is no problem! But every employee in our company is great!" Li Xingye said proudly. (To be continued...)
