Chen Mu blinked his eyes, and couldn't help but look at the old man in the long room. He wanted to see if the other party was joking when he said this.
At the same time, the other people around the table were more or less alarmed by the words of the old man Changfang.
Only the three old men and Qu Xiangshan were able to sit in their seats as if nothing had happened. Obviously, they all knew about it in advance.
Although the items on the mortgage list were used as collateral for the 500 million borrowed by Chen Mu, Yao Bing, and Young Master Li, the value of these items was actually much higher than 500 million.
Now the old man of the long house said that he could ask Chen Mu to take half of the items on the list. This kind of generosity is really big enough, even Young Master Li, who has never taken money seriously, was moved by it.
The others looked at the old man Changfang, and soon turned their attention back to Chen Mu.
They all wanted to see how Chen Mu would respond. They had to know that such a large amount of wealth was in front of them, and Chen Mu could take it away with just one word.
However, Chen Mu still didn't respond.
The more people give, the more they ask for. This is the most obvious truth.
Isn't there a saying in ancient times that if you want to take something, you must first give it, which is the truth.
Chen Mu is not short of money, there is no need to set himself up for these things, even if the Qu family is willing to give him their money, he can't afford it.
The old man of the long house seemed to have seen Chen Mu's thoughts, and secretly sighed in his heart, "You are so young, how can you be so calm?" At the same time, he said: "Xiao Chen, this is not an exchange, but the old man and I. Please help me.
As long as you are willing to help, our Qu family can get out of the predicament completely.
At the expense of this little thing on the mortgage list, we can make use of our Qu family's billions of funds, which one of them is more advantageous, I can still figure it out, old man. "
Everyone was a little taken aback.
The Qu family's funds are now crushed to death by various situations, which is why they are in this predicament.
Although the three of Chen Mu and the others borrowed 500 million yuan, it would definitely not work if they wanted to use the 500 million yuan to revitalize the entire business. There was still a huge shortage of funds.
If Chen Mu can be asked to help and develop a project that can attract the attention of the local government, then it can easily attract fresh water.
The most important thing is that the Qu family can use this project as a cover without worrying about the spread of their business problems, and openly borrow funds from outside.
In this way, the dishes of the Qu family can be completely alive, there is nothing better than this.
Therefore, from this point of view, the Qu family offered half of the mortgage list in exchange for Chen Mu's agreement to cooperate, which should actually be considered a very good deal.
Let's see what Chen Mu has to say now.
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were on Chen Mu.
Chen Mu touched his face, and couldn't help but smile: "I don't have any dirt on my face, why are you looking at me like that?"
Originally, there was a bit of solemn atmosphere at the table, but this joke by him in the hall was completely dissolved.
The old man in the long room couldn't help sighing again from the bottom of his heart, this young man is really extraordinary, he can control the initiative anytime and anywhere, he originally wanted to put some pressure on him, but now...he really can't play tricks on him mind.
After pondering for a while, the old man of the long room said again: "Xiao Chen, in fact, this matter can be regarded as a win-win situation. Although it was indeed for the relief of our Qu family at the beginning, we wanted to borrow your reputation, but as long as we can follow up If the project is done well, not only will your reputation not be damaged, but it will also be beneficial."
After a slight pause, the old man of the long room assured in a deep voice: "Old man, I can assure you here that even if our Qu family loses all their belongings in the future, we will do a good job in the project we cooperate with. You can rest assured about this."
At this point, the words have come to an end, and then we will see what Chen Mu has to say.
In fact, Chen Mu was unwilling to use his and Anar's reputation for the Qu family's misuse before, not talking about him, just talking about Anar, the title of "female academician" is related to all aspects, and it has linked too many people. matter.
Let’s just talk about the desert rice base project. If it weren’t for the reputation of a “female academician”, it would not be so easy to promote it.
Now the provinces, cities and towns are all supporting, why? This is not only for "desert rice", but also for the gold content of science and technology represented by "female academician".
There are also other projects of the Muya Research Institute, and Anal's name is also indispensable.
It can be said that "female academician" has a role similar to "repressing three mountains and suppressing five seas", and one must cherish feathers.
After thinking for a while, Chen Mu said: "Since Uncle has said so, I can agree to the cooperation, but I have a condition here, you must agree to me, otherwise there is no need to discuss this matter."
"What conditions?"
The old man of the long room secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was really not easy to get Chen Mu to agree. He also said: "As long as the cooperation can be settled, no matter what the conditions are, our Qu family will try our best to meet them."
Chen Mu pointed to Qu Yun, and said, "The third brother must be in charge of the projects that our two companies cooperate with."
"oh?"
The old man in the long room was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Chen Mu to mention such a condition.
Chen Mu continued: "You guys from the Qu family, I know the third brother the best, and I trust him the most. I am most assured that he will be in charge of our cooperation projects. I don't know what do you think, uncle?"
The old man of the first room and the old man of the second room looked at each other, then looked at Qu Xiangshan, and then said: "Okay, I can promise you."
Chen Mu was satisfied, and nodded: "Okay, since this is the case, then I will ask the research institute to pass on the relevant patent introduction from our side as soon as possible, so that you can have a look."
The old man of the long room took a deep look at Qu Yun, and nodded: "Yes, Xiao Saner, it seems that we have really ignored you these years, and you have made some good friends!"
When Qu Yun heard this, he was a little confused, so he just smiled and didn't say anything.
Now that the matter has been settled, I didn't say anything more after that, the details can be discussed later, there is no need to continue to argue at this table.
This evening, the host and guest enjoyed themselves.
"Come with me."
In the evening, when I got home, the old man Sanfang asked Qu Yun to follow him into the study as soon as he entered the door.
He made tea himself, poured a cup for his son, and then poured a cup for himself, and the father and son drank the tea quietly.
Qu Yun's hand holding the teacup was very solemn, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
You must know that his father made tea for him like this, and poured tea for him first in the way he treats distinguished guests, but he had never done it before, so he was flattered.
He has been a mess since he was a child. His parents loved him a lot when he was young, and he developed a playful temperament. Later, as he grew older, he kept getting into trouble outside. The relationship between father and son can't be said to be bad, but it's definitely not good either.
At least with his father, he never looked at him seriously. After all, he was too incompetent in his father's eyes, so naturally he couldn't get his "respect".
But today, although his father didn't say a word, Qu Yun really felt that his father's attitude towards him had changed.
Putting down the teacup, the old man Sanfang picked up the teapot and poured tea again.
While pouring tea like running water, he said to Qu Yun: "When you see Chen Mu tomorrow, you have to thank him very much."
"ah?"
Qu Yun didn't expect his father to say this suddenly, which made him a little surprised.
The old man Sanfang frowned: "Ah, what, don't you understand what happened today?"
Qu Yun frowned slightly, and really wanted to ask "what's going on today", but after looking at his father's face, he finally refrained from asking.
The old man of the third room said: "Originally your uncle and fourth uncle allowed you to intervene in the family's business, just to let you follow the younger brother to start a business, but today Chen Mu made a condition to your uncle that the new cooperation project must be managed by you. So, from now on, you don't have to listen to Xiao Er'er, and you will be responsible for all new projects."
That's how it turned out...
It was only then that Qu Yun came back to his senses, no wonder he always felt that the second brother looked at him wrongly at the banquet before, so the problem was here.
The old man Sanfang said again: "It's rare that Chen Mu is so caring and can give you a hand here. You have to work hard in the future and don't be fooled anymore. Otherwise, it will not be your business alone, and you will let me down." What matters is Chen Mu's heart for you."
After a slight pause, the old man Sanfang went on to say solemnly: "You can think about the current situation of our Qu family, and you should be able to imagine that this project we cooperated with Chen Mu will be the most important project of our Qu family in the future. urgent items.
There will continue to be resources and funds invested in it. As the person in charge, it is definitely a rare opportunity, and you must grasp it well.
As long as you do this project well, you will definitely have a place at home in the future, and no one can shake you, you know? "
Qu Yun didn't think much about it before, but now that he heard his father's words, he realized that it seemed to be a simple condition that Chen Mu raised casually, but there were so many things involved in it.
No wonder the eldest uncle would say those things to him at the banquet before, saying that he had made good friends and so on. He was a little puzzled at the time, but now that he thinks about it, he suddenly understood a lot of things.
Turning his mind, Qu Yun asked his father: "Dad, you said that Chen Mu did this on purpose?"
"Of course!"
The old man of Sanfang looked at his son with hatred for iron and steel. They helped him to pave the road, but he didn't know it. He was so belatedly aware, what a fool.
Shaking his head helplessly, the old man Sanfang explained: "Didn't you see just now that your uncle would rather take out half of the items in the mortgage list, and Chen Mu would not be moved? Later, your uncle said whatever he wanted, and Chen Mu reluctantly agreed. , but he only mentioned such a condition, if this is not to help you, what is it for?"
When Qu Yun heard this, he felt as if he suddenly realized something.
Previously, Chen Mu had always seemed to have no interest in the items on the mortgage list, and behaved very indifferently.
Until the end, I agreed to the cooperation request of Uncle Changfang, and only put forward one condition, that is, let him be in charge of the project.
From this point of view, Chen Mu agreed to cooperate with the Qu family purely to pave the way for him.
Although I don't know exactly what Chen Mu was thinking, but at this moment, there seemed to be a warm flow in Qu Yun's heart, which made his throat suddenly choked up, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
"This kid..."
Thousands of words, only turned into such a low sentence.
Recall that Chen Mu called him "Third Brother" from the moment he met him.
He always regarded Chen Mu as a good friend, but he didn't feel that Chen Mu was his younger brother.
You must know that Chen Mu is a famous person, and he is the most powerful person among the few people he knows. How could he really regard Chen Mu as his younger brother
It wasn't until this moment that he suddenly felt that this was really his brother.
Although there is no blood relationship, he always thinks about him.
Without saying a word, he took money out to help him.
He agreed to cooperate with the Qu family just to pave the way for him.
This friendship is simply more amiable than brothers who are related by blood.
The old man Sanfang glanced at his son who was sitting there in a daze, and sighed softly: "I really don't know how you made these few friends. I used to feel quite disappointed when I saw your foolishness, but seeing These few friends of yours this time, but I feel that my son is not completely useless.
Alas, just like what your uncle said at the banquet, it seems that I have neglected you all these years. "
As he spoke, a look of relief flashed in the eyes of the old man Sanfang, and then he said: "Actually, this is pretty good. It is said that those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. I can rest assured that you have such a friend by your side." Oh... Well, we will be good to each other in the future, Dad will never scold you again, you will come back to drink tea and talk with Dad more often, Dad wants to know what you are doing, maybe he can give you some money idea."
"dad… "
Qu Yun suddenly raised his head and looked at his father.
He really couldn't believe that one day he would hear such words from his father's mouth.
He has always been a mixed temper, usually with his father, most of the time is not quarreling or cold war, never face is not face, nose is not nose.
Now that his father said such words to him, it is the greatest recognition he has received in his life.
The old man Sanfang waved his hand, signaled his son to drink tea, calmed down, and then said: "Although Chen Mu may not take today's matter seriously, you have to show something, remember to say thank you to him tomorrow Well, although there is an old saying that you don’t say thank you for your kindness, you still have to show people that you already know what he has done for you, otherwise it’s not our courtesy to act like you don’t know.”
After thinking about it, Qu Yun nodded: "I see, I will tell him."
The old man Sanfang nodded, and said again: "Little Er'er, you should also take care of his emotions. This cooperation project was his idea, and now you have snatched it away. Be careful, don't hurt your family." Peaceful."
"Okay, in a few days I'll go find my second brother for tea."
Qu Yun was very well-behaved today, and under his father's ear-to-ear instructions, he agreed one by one.
