Shenshi, in the evening, the most prosperous commercial street by the river is lit up.
At the main entrance of the Peace Hotel, a dark black car slowly separated the endless stream of guests and stopped at the gate. The doorman who greeted the guests lit up when he saw the car logo, and eagerly stepped forward to open the door for the driver and passengers.
A young man in his twenties came out of the driver's seat, wearing a particularly coquettish floral shirt with jeans, oily powder, and leather shoes so bright they could be used as mirrors. With a freshly lit cigarette in his mouth, he squinted and looked around after he got down. His eyes met the two tall foreign women walking towards him, and he gave an ambiguous smile, but then he didn't say anything. He turned his eyes away reluctantly.
He casually threw the car key to the doorman who opened the door for him. After doing this, he immediately went around to the rear door eagerly, and talked to another young man who came down: "It's yours tomorrow, this car is too fucking boring to drive."
His companion didn't even lift his eyelids, just nodded to the doorman who opened the door for him, and said, "Thank you." At the same time, he refused the waiter's move to help him carry his luggage.
"Xiao Chi." The car was driven away, and the two walked side by side toward the hotel. The young man in the flower shirt was still chattering: "We stayed well in Yan City, why did you have to come to the city so early? I even made an appointment with someone for a horse race, and as a result, my dear, my fucking head is so big on the plane..."
"Hu Shaofeng." Xiao Chi kept walking without looking at him, his fluffy curly hair swayed slightly as he walked, hitting his indifferent face, "You either pinch the cigarette, or Shut up and don't talk to me."
Hu Shaofeng choked to a halt for him. After two seconds of stillness, he found that Xiao Chi was still walking forward. He really didn't mean to wait for him, so he hurriedly shoved the cigarette into the trash can and chased after him quickly.
"Can we go slower?"
The girl at the front desk kept her eyes on Xiao Chi's face several times, and reluctantly finished the formalities: "Hello, this is your room card."
The two of them booked two suites on the top floor of the hotel. Hu Shaofeng was flirting, but he was happy when he saw it: "Suites, two big men, we can just live in one!"
After Xiao Chi thanked him, he turned around and left with his duffel bag. Hearing the words, he replied calmly, "Farewell, I'm afraid it will affect your daily performance."
After entering the room, he stood at the entrance and looked around the room with his eyes. First, he threw the cigarettes on the porch table into the drawer, and then his sharp eyes fixed on Hu Shaofeng who was about to move: "If you dare to smoke here, I will put it in the drawer. You threw the fire through the window."
Although Hu Shaofeng usually dragged 258,000 to 80,000 yuan, he never dared to disobey his friend who said what he said. Okay! Ancestors."
He was dying, he thought, not smoking or looking for women, what is Xiao Chi's joy in life? !
Tortured by the addiction to cigarettes, Hu Shaofeng fell into the sofa in despair, kicking, punching, screaming, and rolling, and finally sat up weakly: "Talk about things, talk about things, I'll go back to my side to smoke after talking about it! "
Xiao Chi poured himself a glass of warm water, drank it slowly, kicked his foot, and kicked the duffel bag he casually placed on the floor at the end of the bed.
The duffel bag was extremely heavy, and Hu Shaofeng used a lot of strength to drag it to him.
From the direction of the corridor table, Xiao Chi's metal-like and indifferent voice came: "Follow up the funds as soon as possible in the past few days, the more the better."
Hu Shaofeng agreed, and carefully unzipped the luggage bag.
The small bag was full of stacks of hundred-yuan bills.
******
Since only taking a bus into the city limits, even Gao Sheng and Deng Mai, who vomited in a mess, are no longer motion sick. They added Zhou Haitang, and they were in a state of shock throughout the whole process. Because of this, the development level was even faster than that of Qunnan City. the magical place.
After getting off the bus, Lin Jingzhe took the hungry three to make do with a meal at the noodle shop next to the bus station. Gao Sheng looked at the noodle shop's price tag and said, "I'm going, where is this place, a bowl of noodles sells for one dollar. !"
In Liyun, you can eat very good food for 40 cents in a noodle restaurant!
After eating the noodles, Lin Jingzhe called a car, reported the address, and leaned on the co-pilot to enjoy it quietly. In the 1990s, Shenshi, an economic city that has been developing rapidly at all times, cannot see the scale of later generations when the housing prices were hundreds of thousands, but compared with other cities in the same era, it is still modern everywhere.
The three stinky boys in the back seat were so excited that they were like Grandma Liu who entered the Grand View Garden. Especially when the car entered the main business district, the old residential buildings in the background disappeared completely, and only scattered buildings and those high-rise buildings with Western style were left behind. .
The taxi went up a ramp and stopped in front of the brightest gate in the night. The doorman quickly stepped forward to greet the guests. The eager service of opening the door and carrying luggage left Gao Sheng at a loss. Deng Mai, who was still in the middle of the group, couldn't help but cast his eyes on the backbone of the small group for help.
After Lin Jingzhe paid for the car, he got out of the car and signaled that they should not panic. At the same time, he handed the luggage bag in the trunk to the welcome department: "I'm sorry."
Immediately, he walked in familiarly. He had been to the Peace Hotel several times in his past life. Although it was newer than it is now, this old hotel has not changed much in the past few decades.
When the taxi driver left, he couldn't help but glance at the probe again. He thought it was very strange. As soon as these young men arrived in Shenshi, they came to the most luxurious Peace Hotel. They were so happy when they paid for the taxi. They were all so simple, and they acted like a hillbilly who had never seen the world. The only exception is the long and handsome young man in the passenger seat, but his aura was too strong. Since he got in the car, he quietly leaned against the window without saying a word, his eyes seemed to be scrutinizing. What, so that he didn't even dare to go around.
Is this a rich man greeting poor relatives? Children from wealthy families really look different in temperament... He thought about it, and then stepped on the accelerator in the urging gestures of the waiters. In the Peace Hotel, when he was about to reach the front desk, Gao Sheng finally reflected. Come over, grab Lin Jingzhe's arm: "Aren't we going to live here today?!"
Lin Jingzhe raised his eyebrows to look at him: "Or else?"
Deng Mai was dazzled by the splendid decoration inside the hotel, and he was stunned when he heard the words. He looked around and said in a low voice, "No, this place is very expensive at first glance!"
Zhou Haitang's gaze stayed for two seconds on a man who looked like a boss in a suit with a beer belly and was talking loudly on the phone with a big brother, and then landed on the cloth shoes that his mother, who was wearing holes in her feet, took it by herself. , was also very unsure, and secretly tugged at Lin Jingzhe's clothes: "Yes, the guests here seem to be very rich, let's not live here, I saw in the car just now that there seems to be a hostel nearby..."
Lin Jingzhe waved his hand, motioned them to stop talking, took out his wallet, opened a general suite, five nights, six hundred yuan.
That's six hundred dollars! ! !
The six old people's heads were handed out by Lin Jingzhe without hesitation, and the heads of Gao Sheng behind him were almost dizzy.
Lin Jingzhe said goodbye to the concierge who delivered the luggage, and took out a few changes of clothes from his luggage bag, as if he had no idea how much he had just spent: "You watch TV by yourself, I'll take a shower first."
Gao Sheng seemed to have been poured a basin of ice water on his head when he was in a drowsiness, and a spirit jumped up and stopped him: "Go and return the money!!!"
Deng Mai and Zhou Haitang were also woken up by his shouting. They looked at each other and saw the disbelief in each other's eyes.
Six hundred dollars! This place costs over a hundred for a night! What is the concept of more than 100 yuan? Zhou Haitang's father worked so hard in the thermos factory for only two hundred yuan for a month. Lin Jingzhe spent three months' wages for ordinary people in one breath! Just for the simple accommodation!
This whole day, from the fare to the meals, the way Lin Jingzhe spent money made them terrified. A taxi is more than ten yuan, and the room is more than one hundred dollars a night. Even the noodles cost one yuan for a bowl, and the inlaid gold is nothing more than that! If you put a 10,000 yuan household, can you afford to spend a few days? !
The three of them were so frightened that they didn't even have the heart to appreciate this luxurious hotel suite they had never seen before. Busy and tired, Lin Jingzhe was still thinking about things all the way. He was already exhausted from body to heart. He was nagging so much that his brain was hurting, so he could only hide in the bathroom and locked the door.
The warm hot water poured down from the head, and in the long-lost fragrance, Lin Jingzhe closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
He came to Shanghai and brought Li Yun's children, not just to take them to play or to open their eyes. He came here, of course, with the intention of coming here, and the goal is to refer to the stock exchange that will be opened in the near future.
In the 1990s, this is the era of economic take-off. Although there are many opportunities, they are all fleeting.
Lin Jingzhe asked himself that he was not very smart, otherwise he would not have lived his life like that in his previous life. If he had known that he would return to this era one day, he would have chosen to learn programming without hesitation in his previous life, and then soon, with his advanced technology and vision, he would be able to quickly acquire a part of the Internet before the growth of the giants. market share.
Or memorize the lottery numbers that have won for countless times, buy a dozen or twenty bets in one go, and then frantically buy houses and land in Yan or Shen markets. Doomed to worry about the economy.
It is a pity, however, that he is just an ordinary person at best: he has some cities, but he is not deep; he has some vision, but he is not broad; he has some courage, but not much; he knows some development history, but he has never deliberately studied it in depth.
Stocks and futures were the fastest way to get money he could think of.
He washed himself, put on his bathrobe, tucked his wet hair back into his head, and stared blankly at his young face in the mirror that was steamed pink in the mirror.
He was calculating his capital: the inheritance left by his grandfather, the subsidies he received from donating antiques, and his own savings in the past, a total of 20,000 yuan, because the expenses along the way, there are only about 19,000 left. .
This amount of money seems to be a lot, but it is really not much. Even if it is fully invested in the stock market, it will be difficult to reach an amount that will make him feel safe in the short term.
In the 1990s, the stock market was not as prosperous as the madness of the later years, and even then, if you want to make big money, you must have sufficient principal, 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, at best, you can be a little boy who feels muddy. Shrimp.
When Lin Jingzhe came out of the bathroom, it was already late, the suite was quiet, and no sound could be heard. He turned a corner, his vision softened slightly because of the scene he saw. The three brothers who had been clamoring for Lin Jingzhe to check out had already fallen asleep in the extra spacious big bed outside.
They were obviously tired from the long journey, so Lin Jingzhe turned off the lights in the room and adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner in the room to make sure they wouldn't get cold.
Then he made himself a cup of black coffee, drank it, dried his hair, changed his clothes, took a room card, and left lightly.
******
Shen Shi, after dark, really came to her busiest time.
The lounge of the hotel is full of business people making business appointments. They are in suits and leather shoes, refreshed, or distribute business cards, or talk softly, and it is not uncommon for Lin Jingzhe to appear in them in loose T-shirts and slacks.
But he didn't seem to notice. After showing the room card, he went straight to a table by the window in the lounge and sat down. He ordered a low-brew special drink, but he didn't drink it. Picked up a magazine on the shelf next to it and read it.
The magazine is the latest issue, which is related to finance and economics. It mentioned the stock exchange that will be opened soon, but the editor has some personal inclinations. It seems that he is not optimistic about the future development of the stock market. That massive "stock disaster."
Lin Jingzhe glanced at the sight, and before he could turn the page, he approached a pair of very clean leather shoes from the corner of his eye. He raised his head, looked at the person who came, and caught the flash of surprise in the other person's eyes. .
This man was wearing a regular suit, with a briefcase under his arm, with a big back hair, a medium build, and a clear business temperament on his body.
The other party looked at the untouched special tune, looked at him again, and said somewhat uncertainly: "Hello, are you... Mr. Lin?"
coming. Lin Jingzhe closed the magazine with a snap, and made a nonchalant gesture toward the opposite side: "Please sit down."
Is it really? !
The other party was obviously surprised by his completely unimaginable youth. He was stunned for a few seconds before he realized it, and hurriedly reached out: "Hello, hello, I'm Tian Dahua, you can call me... uh, Oda."
"Mr. Tian." Lin Jingzhe's attitude was indifferent, and he didn't care about Tian Dahua's gaffe. He motioned the waiter to take back the drink list that he had just taken away, and he said calmly, "I'm sorry, I only arrived at Shenshi this afternoon, and asked you to come. It's a little late."
His calm attitude caused Tian Dahua's heart to slowly return to his stomach.
Tian Dahua ordered a cocktail and looked at Lin Jingzhe's appearance from the dimly lit lounge in the lounge. He just thought he was being slapped by a prank child, but looking at it now, the other party is only young in appearance, and his every move, every word and deed, is more calm than himself.
He has been in this line of business in Shenshi for many years, and he is dealing with countless upper-class people every day, and has come into contact with countless privileged classes. The one in front of him obviously has the same temperament as those people.
Which wealthy family or the son of a big leader is this? Tian Dahua did not dare to be casual, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lin is younger and more promising than I thought. To be honest, it really scared me when we met just now."
Lin Jingzhe smiled, but there was no emotion on his face. His youth was both a capital and a weakness. From the day he decided to come back, he had already prepared.
Tian Dahua was the way he found by stuffing fifty dollars for the bellboy in the concierge department when he checked in just now. If the other party can develop business in the Peace Hotel, there must be something special about his methods. Lin Jingzhe just came to apply for the market. He has no money in his hand, no relatives, and such a crazy plan. What he lacks is a collaborator like Tian Dahua with means and ways.
He cut to the chase: "Mr. Tian, I want to register a company."
In the 1990s, in a big city such as Shenshi, countless people rushed forward to join the rolling wave of business every day. Tian Dahua was accustomed to it and nodded: "You have found the right person. I am doing this, but I don't know what company you want to register? How much is the registered capital?"
"Real estate company." Lin Jingzhe seemed to ponder for a while, and then continued in a relaxed tone that didn't take it seriously, "The registered capital is tentatively set at 200,000 yuan."
Tian Dahua was a little hesitant, this was quite a big game, but after thinking about it, he felt that a child from a large family like Lin Jingzhe could not be well preserved. This is really such a vision. This is a big business, he hesitated for a while, after calculating, he said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Lin, uh, you have to know that the risk of our intermediary guarantee is still very high, the registered capital of 200,000, I will give you Get a discount, the lowest is the lowest, and at least this number is required."
He stretched out a finger and looked at Lin Jingzhe's expression in order to measure the depth, but the other party just smiled slightly and fell back leisurely behind the seat: "Deal."
The 200,000 yuan guarantee will cost 10,000 yuan for a three-month period. Based on the income level of this era, it is simply a huge profit. But this number is still within the acceptable range for the current Lin Jingzhe.
Tian Dahua is overjoyed, this time the client is so refreshing, he is indeed a rich man!
He immediately followed the stick with a smile: "It's great that you have no objection. To be honest, this figure looks expensive, but you have searched the whole market, and you can't find a more affordable and reliable one than what I charge. It's gone. Where is your office? I'll sign with you tomorrow with the guarantee contract!"
Lin Jingzhe smiled and said, "I really don't remember the address."
He took the paper next to him, wrote down a string of numbers and handed it to the other party: "This is my room number. You call tomorrow night, and I'll sort out the other details and give you the other details. How?"
Tian Dahua nodded again and again: "Yes, yes."
Lin Jingzhe showed an approving smile, took out 300 yuan from his wallet and put it on the table, and stood up: "That's it, it's getting late, Mr. Tian also went back to rest early, so I'll invite you to drink."
He raised his hand to stop Tian Dahua from trying to grab the order, tapped his index finger on the table, smiled but said irresistibly, "Don't be polite, Mr. Tian, as long as we have a happy cooperation, we will have a long time in Japan, and next time you will entertain me. gone."
Tian Dahua hurriedly stood up: "Mr. Lin walk slowly."
Standing at the table, he turned his head to look at Lin Jingzhe's unhurried back as he left. The other party was only wearing the most ordinary casual clothes, but his young and handsome face was more and more unpredictable to him.
His eyes fell back to the table, three hundred dollars
These two glasses of wine cost more than 100 yuan. Sure enough, he is a rich young master who has no idea about money at all!
*****
The next day, Lin Jingzhe got up early and took Gao Sheng and the others to run to the office building.
After running for a morning, and sweating profusely from the gradually warming sun, he finally found the desired goal as he wished.
This is a mid-range office building. There are small companies upstairs and downstairs, and the scale is not large. The office area he found was less than 100 square meters, the floor was in the middle, and the price was not expensive, 1000 per month. The previous tenant probably closed down later, leaving a pile of desks and chairs that no one wanted.
Lin Jingzhe immediately made a decision and wanted to be here.
Seeing that he spent more than a thousand dollars, Gao Sheng and the others were about to faint. They even wondered if Lin Jingzhe was crazy, why did he come to rent an office building for no reason? ! !
Lin Jingzhe did not explain to them what he meant, so he sent the person from the investment promotion office away, contacted the office management, hired a few hourly workers to do the cleaning, and directly informed Tian Dahua, who called him, of the address in the evening.
Tian Dahua was still very cautious. Although he had a commission of 10,000 yuan hanging in front of him, he still insisted on coming to the office to sign the contract. After seeing that the office was quite large and the windows were clear, the only worry in his heart was finally put back into his stomach.
The two sides cooperated happily. After signing the contract, Tian Dahua paced back and forth in Lin Jingzhe's separate office, looking at the unobstructed view of the city of Shenyang from the window.
He is all envious, a child of a wealthy family, he has just grown up, and he has the capital to start his own company. With time, the achievements are bound to be limitless.
Lin Jingzhe double-checked the official seal, took the contract carefully, and asked, "Mr. Tian, is the intermediate fee paid after the license is officially issued?"
Tian Dahua nodded: "Of course."
"Then I have one more thing, I'm too lazy to find someone else, or you can do it for me." Lin Jingzhe sat back in the reception sofa area to make tea, and said casually, "Our company is going to take out some loan, and it will be done in the near future. To implement it, I don't have much access to the city, so I have to trouble you to help me run."
He glanced at Ueda Dahua and smiled slightly: "Of course, the hard work will definitely be paid a little, but it's just a loan. You shouldn't charge me as high as the guarantee fee, right?"
Tian Dahua has no doubts about him. It is normal for private companies to ask for loans, let alone a small business like Lin Jingzhe who has just started to establish. In recent years, the state has vigorously encouraged individuals to start their own businesses, and loans from banks are quite simple. Lin Jingzhe has business qualifications and a formal license, and it takes a matter of minutes to get the money.
He knew that Lin Jingzhe was generous, so he was very envious of the "hard work", and immediately agreed: "This is simple, after working together once, everyone is a friend, if you don't say it, I have to help. I don't know about you. How much do you want to borrow?"
"Not much." Lin Jingzhe said, "One hundred thousand is probably enough."
Tian Dahua gave a refreshing smile: "It's easy to say, I will do it for you in a week!"
Lin Jingzhe nodded, poured boiled mineral water into the small teapot, rinsed it slowly, and poured it into the delicate teacup.
The topic of the loan seemed to be a small detail that was not worth paying attention to in the casual chat. He smiled and raised his hand to greet Tian Dahua: "Mr. Tian, try it?"
