"Yingjie, this is my friend from Xiangjiang, Mr. Xu Ruijie."
"Mr. Xu, this is my friend Qiu Yingjie. He is now the main person in charge of economic reform in Yiwu. I'm afraid you will have to communicate with him in many places for your future investment in Yiwu."
Zhou Chen introduced the two to each other.
Qiu Yingjie immediately stretched out his hand, half-bowed, and shook hands with Xu Ruijie: "Mr. Xu, hello, hello, I'm very happy to meet you, and you are very welcome to come to our Yiwu for inspection. Don't worry, our Yiwu will fully cooperate with you, and we will definitely not
You will be disappointed.”
Xu Ruijie acted like a boss and greeted Qiu Yingjie: "Hello, you are Zhou Chen's friend, and you are also my friend. You don't need to be so polite."
Qiu Yingjie asked with a surprised look on his face: "Mr. Xu, you speak Mandarin so well."
Xu Ruijie smiled and said: "Of course, I often went to Taiwan to do business in the past few years, and I have been interacting with you mainlanders a lot these years. How can I do it if I can't learn Mandarin."
"Mr. Xu is indeed well-informed, I admire him, I admire him." Qiu Yingjie complimented.
Zhou Chen said at this time: "Mr. Xu, Yingjie, let's not talk here anymore. Let's go back first. Xie Shuji is still waiting for us."
Only then did Qiu Yingjie react and smiled sheepishly: "Yes, yes, I was so happy to see Mr. Xu that I forgot the most important thing for a while. Mr. Xu, let's go back to the county first?
"
"Of course I have no problem." Xu Ruijie waved his hand to show that he didn't care.
Zhou Chen said to Qiu Yingjie: "Yingjie, you lead the way. I want to catch up with Mr. Xu, so I will take Mr. Xu's car."
"good."
Of course Qiu Yingjie wouldn't mind. He also wanted Zhou Chen to get close to Xu Ruijie more often, so that Xu Ruijie would have a greater chance of staying and investing.
Zhou Chen and Xu Ruijie were sitting in the car. Xu Ruijie asked with a smile: "How was my performance just now?"
Zhou Chen said lightly: "Not bad."
"As expected of the boss, you are quite demanding."
Xu Ruijie was not originally from Xiangjiang, but fled to Xiangjiang with his parents more than 20 years ago, and later took root in Xiangjiang.
Even though Xu Ruijie was smiling in front of Zhou Chen and not looking serious, in fact, he was also a top student who graduated from Xiangjiang University and majored in law.
This is also the main reason why Zhou Chen can trust him to represent him and return to the mainland of Xiangjiang.
Originally, he didn't want to travel back and forth so hard, but when Zhou Chen mentioned the annual salary and bonuses, he immediately agreed.
With the help of Xu Ruijie, a professional who studies law, Zhou Chen is not too worried about what traps he will encounter when doing business in his absence.
As for Xu Ruijie's credibility, Zhou Chen has naturally considered this a long time ago. If he didn't trust him, he wouldn't leave these important matters to him.
Xu Ruijie met Xie Shuji soon, and they exchanged very friendly greetings. Then Xie Shuji took Xu Ruijie to a restaurant for a light meal.
During the dinner, Xie Shuji and Qiu Yingjie asked Xu Ruijie about this investment in a whisper. Xu Ruijie was very smart and said a lot of nice things, but most of them were talking about him and did not explain anything at all. Let Xie Shuji and Qiu Yingjie
It's a bit hard to hold it.
In the end, it was Zhou Chen who took the initiative to come to the rescue and said that he would take Xu Ruijie around Yiwu to investigate in the past few days.
Xie Shuji was not in a hurry. He was anxious for Xu Ruijie to stay and invest, and he also cared about Xu Ruijie's foreign exchange, but he still had money in the city.
If you want people to invest, you must let them inspect it first. It is impossible for people to just invest money when they just come and see nothing.
Xie Shuji cannot accept this kind of investment. What he wants is sustainable development investment, not a one-time investment.
If a foreign businessman came to invest for the first time and left with nothing, if word of this spread, who would dare to invest in Yiwu in the future?
So attracting investment is very important, but Yiwu's reputation is even more important.
After having dinner with Xie Shuji and resting for a while, Qiu Yingjie accompanied Zhou Chen and Xu Ruijie on their inspection.
This time Qiu Yingjie did not take the county car, but Xu Ruijie's car.
Qiu Yingjie is a native of Yiwu and has been working there for half a year, so he is naturally very familiar with Yiwu.
Under his leadership, Zhou Chen and the others visited many places in Yiwu in the next few days, basically visiting several towns.
Some places that have no investment reference value will naturally just take a look and leave. Some places that seem to have investment potential will be focused on.
A few days passed, although Qiu Yingjie tried to get information out of Xu Ruijie many times, but no matter how he asked, Xu Ruijie always responded with a smile, saying that this was good, that was good, but the substantive content was one word.
None were disclosed.
Qiu Yingjie, who was hit by this bone-melting palm, had no power to parry at all.
In the evening, Zhou Chen came to Luo Yuzhu and had dinner with her.
During dinner, Luo Yuzhu suddenly asked him curiously: "Zhou Chen, I saw you and Qiu Yingjie accompanying a big boss to our market two days ago. I heard from people in the market that the big boss
It seems that they are from Xiangjiang and are planning to invest in us. Is this true or false?"
Zhou Chen replied with a smile: "The people in your market are quite well-informed. He is indeed the boss from Xiangjiang, and he does want to invest, but there is no word yet on whether the details can be finalized.
"
"Oh, I'm just asking casually. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether the big boss of Xiangjiang invests or not, it won't have any impact on us."
Luo Yuzhu was simply curious and had never thought about the benefits that Xiangjiang people would bring to her by investing in their county.
Zhou Chen smiled mysteriously: "That's not necessarily the case."
Luo Yuzhu's eyes lit up and she asked with some anticipation: "Did you hear some gossip? Does the big boss from Xiangjiang know you?"
"You guessed it right. We have known each other since we were in Xiangjiang. It was me who persuaded him to invest this time."
"Really?"
"of course it's true."
"That's great."
Luo Yuzhu looked happy, and Zhou Chen asked: "Where is better?"
"Of course, you brought the boss of Xiangjiang here. If he invests in us, the county will owe you a favor. It will be much more convenient for you to do whatever you want to do in the future."
Zhou Chen is a little funny, and Luo Yuzhu's thoughts are a little naive and simple, but this is normal. At this stage, she has too few exposures, so she naturally lacks a lot of horizons and knowledge.
A few days later, Xu Ruijie, who had been inspecting for a long time, felt that time was almost up, so he asked Qiu Yingjie to make an appointment with Xie Shuji to discuss the investment plan in detail.
In order to show his professionalism, Xu Ruijie specially called a small team of five people to negotiate with the team sent by the county.
Although both parties were willing to cooperate, each wanted to gain greater benefits, so differences arose not long after the negotiations began.
As a result, in the next period of time, both parties took information from each other, talked about difficulties, expressed determination, etc., which made the cooperation negotiation stalemate for a long time. In the end, the cooperation was finally reached after both parties took a step back.
The investment project is that within the next year and a half, Xu Ruijie will build a small commodity trade city integrating wholesale and retail around Chenjia Town, and within three years, build several residential buildings around the trade city, etc.
.
In order to support Xu Ruijie's real estate projects, the county has mobilized its maximum support. As soon as construction begins, all efforts will be mobilized to support it.
After Xu Ruijie achieved his goal, he readily took out part of the foreign exchange and handed it over to the county. At the same time, if there was a problem with funds in the future, he could get a loan from a local bank, and the county would give him the green light.
After talking about the matter, Xu Ruijie left first on the grounds that there were still things to deal with in Xiangjiang, and told Xie Shuji that Zhou Chen would have full authority to implement the plan on his behalf.
Xu Ruijie's decision made Xie Shuji and others overjoyed. They would definitely prefer to deal with Zhou Chen, who is also a local, than Xu Ruijie, who is from Xiangjiang.
In their opinion, Zhou Chen is a local and must be loyal to them. They don't expect to take any big advantage. As long as Zhou Chen can help a little bit, it will be of great benefit to them.
Zhou Chen returned to Chenjia Village. Before he got home, he saw a large group of people gathered in front of his uncle Chen Jinshui's house.
These people are all fellow villagers. When they saw Zhou Chen coming, they all greeted Zhou Chen very enthusiastically.
"Zhou Chen, you're back. Have you eaten? If you haven't, go to your uncle's house and ask your aunt to prepare some dishes to go with the wine. Let's have a drink."
"What should you drink? It's only what time it is. You know what to drink."
"Zhou Chen, I heard that you and that big boss in Xiangjiang..."
"that…………"
Everyone spoke in unison, whining, but Zhou Chen also roughly listened and understood why they came here today.
It was just that they heard the news from somewhere and found out that he knew the big boss of Xiangjiang and that he would be responsible for the project here instead of the big boss of Xiangjiang, so they all came over to try to please him and see if they could get some benefits.
Facing these people, Zhou Chen kept smiling, but he was determined not to let go. He knew the virtues of these people.
It’s not that they have bad human nature, but once they agree to someone, it’s a big deal and everyone will flock to them.
The most important thing is that if you expect these people to go out and help him, everything will be messed up.
He remembered very clearly how these people tricked Chen Jianghe in the TV series, so how could he be willing to provoke these people.
Finally, Chen Jinshui walked out and drove everyone away with a very tough attitude.
Chen Jinshui pulled Zhou Chen into the house and closed the door.
"Xiaochen, please leave them alone."
Although Chen Jinshui himself is a member of Chenjiacun and is the leader of Chenjiacun, it does not mean that he is responsible for everyone in Chenjiacun.
What Zhou Chen wants to do this time is a big thing, and he knows the importance of things, so he won't let these people ruin Zhou Chen's big thing, even if he is the villain.
If it were Chen Jianghe, he might not be so tough, mainly because although Chen Jianghe was his adopted son, he often ate food from other people's families when he was a child. Many families in Chenjia Village were kind to Chen Jiahe.
But Zhou Chen is different. Zhou Chen has lived in Chenjiacun for more than two years, and he has always lived in his house. He has no relationship with other people in Chenjiacun and does not owe any favors, so he does not need to worry so much.
"Uncle, don't worry, I know what's going on."
"Second brother." "Brother."
Chen Jianghe and Qiao Gu happened to be at home. When they saw Zhou Chen come in, they both came over happily.
Several people sat down at the table, and Chen Jianghe took the initiative to ask: "Second brother, I heard from Brother Qiu that you will be fully responsible for the investment of the big boss in Xiangjiang this time?"
Zhou Chen said: "It's not entirely responsible. He will also understand remotely, and occasionally come to visit. Most of them communicate by phone. What, what do you think?"
Chen Jianghe shook his head and said, "I don't have any ideas. I don't know much about building a house."
Zhou Chen said: "Although you don't know much about building a house, you can do other things, such as buying cement, bricks, etc. Aren't these things you are good at?"
"Can you leave this to me?"
Chen Jianghe was overjoyed, but he was not happy for a few seconds before he shook his head again: "Forget it, second brother, I know you want to help me, but this matter is too big and the amount is too big. I may not be able to talk about it alone.
good."
The materials used to build a house are different from other small commodities that are difficult to promote. They are all in short supply. It is impossible for him to negotiate any big discounts by himself.
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "You are quite clear-headed, so why don't you come to my place and study at the same time?"
Chen Jianghe said: "It's okay to study. I'll just follow you. Rather than building a house, I still want to do business in the small commodity market."
Zhou Chen understood clearly. He knew that Chen Jianghe had been traveling around in the past few years and must have paid attention to many things, but the one he paid most attention to was definitely transactions related to small commodity department stores, and he had accumulated a lot of experience.
Now that he is suddenly asked to change careers, he will definitely not be happy.
"Then I won't force you. If you need my help in the future, you must ask. We are brothers, you know?"
"Of course, second brother, if I encounter trouble in the future, I will definitely come to you." Chen Jianghe said with a smile.
When Zhou Chen and Chen Jianghe were talking, Chen Jinshui never interrupted. He never thought of intervening in the matter of the two children and let them make their own decisions.
Zhou Chen looked at Qiaogu again: "Qiaogu, are you nineteen years old this year?"
Qiaogu replied playfully: "Well, brother, I'm nineteen years old."
"I'm nineteen years old and can go to work. When the construction site starts, how about you go there with me and help me by the way?"
"Me? No, I can't, I don't know anything."
When Qiaogu heard this, she immediately waved her hands with a look of fear on her face.
