Lin Xu originally had a good impression of Fang Jinglan, but after hearing his words, he couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards him!
According to his understanding, in this era, the annual interest rate for loans from banks is very high, averaging between 20% and 36%. Although it sounds like a loan shark at first glance, in fact, relatively speaking, the interest rate for loans from banks is
The interest rate is quite low. If you borrow money from the private sector, the annual interest rate of 50% is low, and the annual interest rate of 100% is also very common!
Calculated using an annual interest rate of 20%, if he borrowed 100,000 taels of silver from Fang Jinglan, the interest for one year would be 20,000 taels of silver.
In other words, Fang Jinglan directly took out 20,000 taels of silver to help the victims!
This is definitely a big deal!
This old man is awesome!
In addition, this is also a kind of respect that Fang Jinglan shows to herself!
Since Fang Jinglan has this intention, Lin Xu will naturally not be pretentious and bows to him solemnly: "On behalf of those victims, thank you, sir!"
"Sir, you are serious!"
Fang Jinglan returned the gift.
After the two sat down, Fang Jinglan said: "Excuse me, sir, you just said you wanted me to endorse something, what is it?"
Lin Xu smiled and said: "Actually, this is what happened. Our Linshan firm recently did a big deal with Yun Jinxiang. We need to pay Yun Jinxiang 900,000 taels of silver, but I can't afford so much money at the moment.
, Therefore, after discussing with Yun Jinxiang’s boss, Boss Song, I prepared to pay in installments. Boss Song agreed to this plan, but he proposed that the most reputable business name should be the endorsement!”
"I thought about it and found that the most reputable business name in the whole of Jiangnan is Bao Yifeng! That's why I asked to come here. I hope Mr. Fang can endorse this matter. Lin Xu would be very grateful!"
"Of course, I won't let you endorse this matter in vain. How much money is needed, or what needs to be used as collateral, sir, just ask."
After hearing what Lin Xu said, Fang Jinglan stroked the beard on her chin and smiled slightly: "Sir, that's really ridiculous! We have endorsed other companies' business before. According to the rules, we need to get to know Mr.
What kind of business are you doing with Boss Song? After all, your business is too big, as much as 900,000 taels of silver. We have to weigh it carefully to see if we are qualified to endorse it!"
Lin Xu understood that Fang Jinglan's request was actually reasonable, because Baoyifeng used the reputation of the company to endorse this matter. If he didn't understand clearly, if something went wrong with this business, it would not only make people
Baoyifeng's reputation has been damaged, and Baoyifeng may be saddled with a huge debt!
In fact, Lin Xuzhen didn't want to deceive this humble and kind-hearted old man, but the business he did with Song Changji couldn't be told outside.
However, this matter cannot be hidden.
Because in a few days, once Song Changji flees, it will definitely shock the political and business circles in Jiangnan. By then, I will have no choice but to explain to him shamelessly!
So, he made up a reason: "Our Linshan firm signed a large silk order with Yun Jinxiang, with a total value of 900,000 taels of silver. Later, after our two firms negotiated the details of the order, we gave it to you.
I sent you a copy of the contract as a backup."
Fang Jinglan stroked his beard again and said: "I understand what you mean, sir, but I can't give you a clear answer on this matter for the time being. So, after your company and Yun Jinxiang have negotiated the business, send someone to write a copy
The detailed content will be sent over. After discussion with several shareholders of Baoyifeng, we will give a clear reply to Mr.
Shareholders make up their minds together, sir, please forgive me!"
"Sir, you are serious, this is what you should do!"
Although Lin Xu said this, he was thinking in his heart, I just asked you to borrow one hundred thousand taels of silver, and you agreed without saying a word, and even wiped off the interest, and I didn't see you discussing it with other shareholders! This chapter has been completed!
