Chapter 225 People Leave and the Tea Grows Cold

Before long, people arrived at the teahouse.

"Let me introduce you, Team Leader Zhao, this is General Manager Shen."

The two shook hands, but parted immediately upon touching.

Wu Yingrong poured out the tea leaves and brewed a fresh batch.

Why is it necessary to use a woman to brew tea?

Why wear a cheongsam?

Today I'm sitting here participating in the whole process, and it can be summed up in one word.

enjoy!

Enjoying tea at the club

Three parts tea flavor, seven parts woman's fragrance.

After drinking the first cup of tea, the conversation finally began.

"It's not very clear over the phone, so let's have Mr. Shen explain."

To put it simply, I don't even know as much as this Captain Zhao. I just asked a simple question: "Jin Hu is in trouble now and has sent people to me. I happen to know Boss Wu, so I wanted to ask if there's any room for negotiation."

Team Leader Zhao nodded: "The leadership instructed us to give them a warning."

"Could you please tell me the reason?"

Team Leader Zhao shook his head.

"Can we talk here?"

Team Leader Zhao glanced around and said, "Of course, if it doesn't work out here at Boss Wu's place, then I'll have nowhere to go in the provincial capital."

"Captain Zhao is too kind. Your presence is a great honor for me, and I am deeply grateful. If this matter can be settled, I will personally present Captain Zhao with a case of aged Da Hong Pao tea."

"Mr. Wu, you're too kind. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I'll let you know in advance if I have any news."

"Thanks."

Team Leader Zhao left.

"Zhao Chuang was also introduced by a college classmate. He wanted to be promoted to section chief. He was very shrewd and got along very well in the unit after the promotion."

"I can tell."

After finishing up here, Wang Yan called: "The Zhou family is here!"

The timing is about right.

Tell Xiaoqi to send me back to ZG as soon as possible.

In the conference room, besides Zhou Fei, there was another woman whose face looked somewhat familiar; he must have seen her at the old man's birthday banquet.

"Tianyi".

Zhou Fei still seemed a little embarrassed when she saw me, but the woman next to her stepped forward and said, "President Shen, it's been a long time."

"Who is this?"

Zhou Fei said, "My eldest sister, Zhou Qian, has been working in Kaifeng and just returned to the provincial capital."

It seems that the Zhou family is preparing to follow the Chen family's example and gradually focus their efforts on the provincial capital.

"I met him at the main hall of the old man's birthday banquet last year. I said he looked familiar."

"Mr. Shen, you have a bad memory."

The two came here simply to discuss the equity of ZG.

"I wonder what Mr. Shen's plans are?"

"We promised to pave the way for the Zhou family back then, and now it's time to fulfill that promise. The Zhou family will definitely have a place in China, so you two don't need to worry."

"What is the specific shareholding percentage?"

I tapped my fingers on the table. The room was quiet, and everyone was waiting for my reply, including Xu Jingyan.

"What price is the Zhou family planning to offer?"

Zhou Fei and Zhou Qian both fell silent. They knew this day would come sooner or later, but when it came to talking about money, it was indeed difficult. The Zhou family had transferred all their businesses in Kaifeng and Hebi, but they still hadn't raised enough to meet their own desired amount, let alone my ideal amount.

"ZG is now valued at 6 million. The old man wants to take the initiative. For this reason, he has already scaled back his business in several cities. As you know, the government in Liancheng is still holding back the family's funds. The Zhou family really doesn't have any extra funds."

I slammed my hand on the table, the sound loud, expressing my dissatisfaction: "Did the old man also decide that Liancheng NP's 100 million yuan was taken from me?"

Zhou Qian shook her head: "After the old man celebrated his birthday last year, he stopped caring about family affairs. Now Uncle Fan is in charge, and my eldest uncle has been handling the business and managing the funds."

.....

I haven't yet experienced the feeling of being forgotten after Jin Hu's departure, but Zhou Ren's actions have truly made me feel sorrow.

Having a peer talk to me must have been Zhou Fan's idea. Just like he said when we met in Liancheng last time, he doesn't interfere with ZG's transactions and has given me enough respect and freedom.

Looking at Zhou Fei and Zhou Qian, I couldn't help but sigh, "The Zhou family has no one left in this generation."

If either of them had been a little more assertive, as ruthless as Zhou Ren, and had pressured me to give up the shares, I would have given them to them. Unfortunately...

Although Zhou Ren was ruthless, I have to admire him. Despite having hundreds of millions of yuan tied up by Liancheng, he was still able to revitalize his family and even had extra money to buy ZG's shares. Especially his move to withdraw my funds was decisive and ruthless. If I were in his shoes, I probably would have done the same.

"Tell me, how much money have you prepared?"

170 million.

"You can't even get 30% of the shares, what are you talking about taking the initiative for? The Chen family contacted me last month, offering a 4 million share, whatever amount they can give! Tell me, how did Zhou Ren explain things to you?"

The two of them didn't react much to my nomination by name.

"My uncle only told us to buy at least 51% of the shares, and we'd have to figure out the rest ourselves. I've already transferred my businesses in Kaifeng and Hebi, and even mortgaged the house that Qianjie and I own. That's how I managed to raise 1 million."

"Did you try to raise funds? Did you try to borrow money from Li Weicheng? Feng Hong is the director of the Finance Bureau, didn't you even try to get some money from them? The Zhou family is a force to be reckoned with in the provincial capital, and they have so many connections in the Public Security Bureau, couldn't they have raised 2 million?"

"Uncle Fan didn't say it explicitly, and we didn't dare to either, for fear of damaging his reputation."

"You won't do it just because he doesn't tell you? If something goes wrong, you can just take all the blame yourself, right? He's the Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Executive Deputy Director of the Provincial Public Security Department. If something really happens to you, can't he protect you?"

Zhou Qian stomped her foot, and what I said sounded incredibly aggressive to her: "Tianyi, at least we're still family now, don't go too far."

"Family members? Did you ask your own people when Nuonuo's pharmacy was mortgaged?"

"When the family is in trouble, it is only right to offer support."

"Supporting you is just for internal exploitation? The Zhou family built their empire over so long, and in less than six months, you've either transferred or mortgaged it. Now you're coming to me for 170 million to buy 300 million worth of shares. What are you relying on? Your good looks, or my pity? I used to speak nicely to Nuonuo in front of me, but now, you two are trying to take my spoils of victory just with your words?"

Zhou Fei blushed deeply; every word I said was like a slap in his face.

Zhou Qian was equally angry with me, her chest heaving.

"If there's nothing else, let's go now and go back to raise the money. The Chen family will be here soon, and it wouldn't be good if you bumped into each other. Jingyan, see them out."

After dropping off the two people.

When Xu Jingyan returned, she asked in surprise, "Boss, weren't you already prepared to sell ZG to the Zhou family? Why are the Zhou family here with such harsh conditions?"

At that moment, Zhou Ren called.

The call connected, but the other party remained silent.

"As long as Nuonuo and I are still together, I will still call you Uncle. Whether these two can come to their senses is up to them."

"Tianyi, thank you."
