Cheng Zijun only had contact with Chen Mu before, but didn't know much about him, so he didn't know much about Chen Mu's details. He only regarded Chen Mu as a smart young man, an ordinary friend who got along.
When he helped Chen Mu's farmhouse to promote, it was purely a small favor, and there was a bit of showing off in it, to let the club know that he, the "cross-country master", had found a good route for fun.
However, since he went to the forest farm of Agudamu's family in Beizhuo Village, his views have changed.
Seeing Chen Mu being valued by Siwei in L City, coupled with the enthusiasm of Agudamu's family for Chen Mu, this made him realize that Chen Mu is unusual.
Out of curiosity, after leaving Beizhuo Village, Cheng Zijun turned around and asked his family to help him understand Chen Mu's situation.
Only then did he know what Chen Mu had done over the past year.
He dropped out of school due to the death of his parents in a car accident, and inherited a gas station on a remote desert road.
Then engage in farmhouse entertainment to benefit the local people and stimulate the local economy.
Planted trees and established forestry companies to cultivate saplings, and the market responded very well.
Establish research institutes to conduct scientific research and apply for patents for new varieties of rice.
All of these incidents shocked Cheng Zijun very much, and he realized how extraordinary this seemingly ordinary young man was.
It is said that even Fa Wei has noticed Chen Mu now, and is very optimistic about the prospects of Muya Forestry he founded.
When he came to X City this time, Cheng Zijun originally wanted to find Chen Mu. He had no special purpose, but simply wanted to see with his own eyes how Chen Mu had made so many achievements in this short one year. things.
Chen Mu didn't think too much, he was a little naturally close to Cheng Zijun.
You must know that when he just started to engage in farmhouse entertainment, Cheng Zijun was the first stranger he "slaughtered". Later, Cheng Zijun introduced many people to him when he turned around, which really helped him a lot.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, especially when doing business, I am afraid that I will not get off to a good start.
He has always been grateful for Cheng Zijun's help to him.
The two chatted for a while, and it was quite speculative.
There is a big round table in the hall, because the number of people has expired, so the service staff of the clubhouse began to serve the food, and everyone greeted and sat on the table.
Although Chen Mu said he had just attended a charity dinner, he actually didn't eat anything and only drank two glasses of fruit juice. He felt a little hungry at this moment, so he also pulled Cheng Zijun to sit on the table.
After everyone sat down, they began to eat and drink.
The food in this club is delicious, not Northwest cuisine. It is said that the chef is from Jianghai, so the dishes are from Jianghai.
When eating, Chen Mu didn't relax at all. Anyway, he always felt that he should enjoy himself when eating, and put other etiquette aside, so he was more open-minded when eating.
The other people on the table were a little surprised to see him like this. In the end, everyone stopped, and he was the only one who was still holding a crab leg.
The old Jane who was sitting next to Li Chenping smiled and said to Li Chenping: "Chenping, your little brother is really brave in eating."
Li Chenping shook his head helplessly: "He is probably very hungry. He went to a banquet just now and didn't eat anything."
Old Jane just said that, and didn't take it seriously, and said: "We haven't seen each other for several years, how about going to the squash hall to play two rounds later?"
Li Chenping said: "You and Qinghe are still okay? You know, I fight every week, and now Cheng Wen is no longer my opponent."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Wen on the other side became upset: "Chen Ping, you brat is really boastful, what do you mean I am no longer your opponent? Cut, I let you do it, okay?"
Li Chenping waved his hands, showing a dismissive expression: "A defeated general is not brave enough to speak."
"I'm going, this guy... really pissed me off!"
Cheng Wen was so angry that his mouth was crooked, and he turned to Qinghe and said, "Qinghe, I will join hands with you tonight, and teach this guy who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth a lesson."
Qinghe nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, if you join hands with me, it's considered a thigh hug. I will definitely cover you well."
"Cut, mob!"
Li Chenping continued to put on the stance that being invincible is the loneliest, Qinghe and Cheng Wen couldn't bear it anymore, and they were about to walk out by pulling him.
Li Chenping had no choice but to say, "Playing basketball is fine, but you have to take a rest. Playing basketball right after eating is not good for your stomach."
"It doesn't matter, let's talk about it after the fight, today we must decide the winner."
Several people carried Li Chenping out together, and Li Chenping only had time to say hello to Chen Mu before going out.
The rest of the people continued to drink and chat in the lobby.
Chen Mu observed for a while just now. The protagonists of today's banquet are Li Chenping, Qinghe, Lao Jian and Cheng Wen. They seem to be very good friends.
Qinghe and Old Jane don't know if it's because of their work relationship or something else. One is in the capital and the other is in Nandu. Anyway, it's rare to come back to City X together, so they chose to meet today.
Cheng Zijun was Lao Jian's friend. When Lao Jian came back from the capital, he happened to hear that Cheng Zijun was also here, so he called him over.
The rest of the people are all younger brothers or friends of the four protagonists, and they can be regarded as people in their circle.
After Chen Mu finished his meal, he felt that there was still room in his stomach, so he started to drink soup.
Today's soup is black-bone chicken and abalone soup, with many kinds of Chinese herbal medicines added, which is very nourishing and delicious.
Chen Mu felt that such a good thing should not be wasted and must be finished, so he drank it slowly while chatting with Cheng Zijun.
"Is your farmhouse still working?"
"Well, I'm working on it, but I'm handing it over to a buddy now, and my main focus is on the forestry company."
"Then what if I want to ask you to go to the farmhouse again in the future? You don't care, I don't want to change people."
"If you come, of course I will receive you in person. Don't worry, let me know before you come to make sure it's authentic... Hey, sir, you'll still be served by a hot man from before."
…
While the two were talking quietly, others began to chat about their affairs.
"Xiao Tie, what happened to the Yungang land you mentioned last time?"
"There is no news yet. I have already passed the relationship to urge it. I will tell you when I get it. I can't eat it alone."
Xiao Tie is a short and thin young man, about 1.6 meters tall, wearing a black suit and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. It can be seen that he has tried very hard to make himself look mature , but it just gives people a feeling of not growing up, too childlike.
The one talking to Xiao Tie was a fat man, Cheng Wen's cousin just now, wearing a golden watch on his wrist, and the cross on the surface was particularly eye-catching.
Sitting next to him is a girl with a particularly good figure, showing her half ball + revealing her waist + hip-length shorts + big white long legs, she is the kind who can earn money by being an Internet celebrity in the yin.
The fat man pinched his little girl's hand and said, "Little Tie, it's not my brother who blamed you. You must hurry up on this matter. Yungang will be the center of the new development zone in the future. If you don't hurry up, you will lose your chance." .”
"I know."
Xiao Tie nodded, and then turned to several other people and said: "This land should be no problem, it can be taken down, but a deposit must be paid, and a bank certificate of funds is required. The money within three months, here The first billion is almost one billion, and you have to find a way to get it together."
One of the men with glasses and a crew cut said, "I can get 200 million."
"good!"
Xiao Tie gave a thumbs up and said, "I have 300 million in my hand, so this is 500 million."
The fat man thought for a while and said, "Then I'll take 300 million too."
The remaining two men were brothers. They looked at each other and said, "We don't get together, we can only get 100 million."
2+3+3+1=9
Anyone can figure out such a simple math problem.
It was a little short of one billion, and they all fell silent.
One hundred million is not too much, and it is not much less.
In such a hurry, it is not easy for several people to take it out.
When he was silent, the fat man suddenly saw Chen Mu and Cheng Zijun who had been talking in a low voice, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Everyone earns money, since we are here, we are all friends. Two brothers, are you interested in taking part and frying the land with my brothers?"
Both Cheng Zijun and Chen Mu were taken aback, stopped chatting, and looked at the others.
They noticed that other people at the dinner table cast their eyes on the two of them, as if they were waiting for their reply.
Cheng Zijun shook his head, and said in a calm tone, "I don't understand the land speculation, you guys have fun."
Fatty and the others immediately focused their attention on Chen Mu again.
Chen Mu was at a loss and said, "What land are you frying?"
Xiaotie explained: "Yungang is going to set up a new development zone. We have a channel to get a piece of land, which will be the center of the development zone in the future. Now there is still a shortfall of 100 million. If you are interested, we will count it for you. "
"One hundred million?"
Chen Mu honestly shook his head: "I have no money."
"No money?"
The fat man frowned and asked curiously, "Brother, are you in business too? What kind of business are you doing?"
Chen Mu didn't hide anything, and replied directly: "The main business is the business of raising seedlings."
"Nursing seedlings?"
The few people who paid for land speculation just now frowned slightly.
In their impression, seedling raising is a small business, and the work is hard work, only those local bosses can do it. I really don't know how profitable such a business is.
Like them, taking a piece of land and reversing the business as soon as it changes hands is called making money. I can't help being a little surprised at this buddy in front of me.
Looks like a local boss...
Those few people thought to themselves, and then recalled Chen Mu's eating habits before, and suddenly felt that this kid was really a poor boy who had never seen the world.
But after all, they were brought here by Li Chenping, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense, with a slight disdain in their eyes, they stopped talking to Chen Mu.
Chen Mu didn't mind either, he was a second-generation rich man, and if he just opened his mouth, it was a business worth hundreds of millions, so it was normal to feel good about himself.
He continued to drink soup and chat with Cheng Zijun.
Cheng Zijun didn't like the attitude of these guys very much. After chatting with Chen Mu for a while, he took the initiative to say, "How about it? Are you full? Why don't you go to the room where I live together, and we can chat while drinking tea?"
"OK."
Chen Mu nodded and agreed. He drank up the chicken soup in the bowl and left with Cheng Zijun.
After Chen Mu and Cheng Zijun left, the fat man couldn't help curling his lips: "Is this kid really a relative of Brother Chen Ping's family?"
Xiao Tie shook his head: "Who knows, maybe it just happened to be on the way, so I brought it here."
The fat man thought for a while and said, "Why don't you ask Brother Chen Ping later, if he is interested, how about letting him come for the 100 million?"
"Okay, I'm afraid Brother Chenping won't like our land grabbing."
"It's okay, come here and ask, if it doesn't work, think of a way."
…
Several people continued to chat.
An hour and a half later, Li Chenping and his three good friends came back.
The four of them played squash for more than an hour, soaked in the sauna, and had a massage before returning.
Li Chenping looked at the people in the hall and asked, "Where's my younger brother?"
The fat man replied: "He left with the other buddy named Cheng, saying they wanted to go back to the room to chat."
"oh."
Li Chenping nodded, relieved.
After thinking about it, he called the waiter over, asked for a room for Chen Mu, and asked the waiter to send the room card to Cheng Zijun's room.
The fat man rolled his eyes when he saw him like this, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Chen Ping, we already know that Fanzi is the only younger brother in your family. Where did this younger brother Chen Mu come from?"
Li Chenping didn't go into details, just said: "The elders in his family are close friends with my old man, and they can be regarded as a younger brother."
The fat man let out an "oh" and said, "I just heard from that buddy that he is in the seedling business?"
"yes!"
Li Chenping nodded, suddenly looked up at Fatty, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"No no… "
The fat man only talked about the matter of asking Chen Mu to invest in the shares just now, and then he said with a smile: "The buddy said he had no money, so we asked curiously, he said he was in the seedling business, we thought he was joking, I'll ask you back."
Li Chenping frowned, and said, "Why, look down on those who are in the seedling business?"
"no no… "
The fat man quickly waved his hands, and said with a smile, "I just think it's too hard for that buddy to do this business, and Brother Chenping, you don't even want to help."
"You kid knows what a fart."
Li Chenping patted Cheng Wen next to him, pointed to the fat man and said, "In the future, you have to take care of this kid more. You have earned a little money by relying on your family relationship, and you almost don't know where to go."
Cheng Wen glared at his cousin, and the fat man immediately laughed mischievously, and he didn't dare to pinch the girl's hand anymore, it was very embarrassing.
Li Chenping glanced at the few people who stayed here just now, and snorted: "I tell you, don't underestimate my brother, you can go and find out, his company is called Muya Forestry, what kind of company is it. Hey, let me put it bluntly, he is now in the ten miles and eight towns near X city, he is better at speaking than your father, believe it or not?"
"Muya Forestry?"
Cheng Wen seemed to think of something, and pondered: "This name is so familiar."
Li Chenping pointed to his friend and said, "How dare you say that you joined the Siwei Secretariat, even Muya Forestry doesn't know about it?"
Cheng Wen raised his brows suddenly and asked, "Is it the Muya Forestry that was selected as an advanced enterprise by the province and city this year?"
"Yes, that's him."
Li Chenping nodded: "Chen Mu is the boss of Muya Forestry. He founded Muya Forestry just a year ago."
Cheng Wen was surprised and delighted: "So it's him, I've heard of him a long time ago, but it's a pity that I haven't had the chance to meet him, and I didn't expect it to be one of my own, haha, I have to get to know him again later."
Li Chenping said: "I brought him here today mainly to introduce the two of you to each other. I will take care of him more if I can pass the care."
Cheng Wen shook his head and said with a smile, "Muya Forestry is now a star enterprise in our city. The leaders all know him, so it's not my turn to take care of him."
"Anyway, you can figure it out. They are all on your own and take care of each other."
Li Chenping paused for a moment, pointed at Fatty and Xiaotie, and said, "I'm leaving my words here, don't look at Chen Mu, he can't afford your 100 million today, you can look at it in five years, Count one of you and see if anyone can straighten up and talk to him in the future."
Fatty and Xiaotie were a little embarrassed, and they were embarrassed to respond.
Only then did they know that it was so difficult for that buddy to start a small seedling business that was rated as an advanced enterprise by the province and city, and even Cheng Wen from the Siwei Secretariat had to be serious about it.
However, they didn't take Li Chenping's last words seriously.
Why can't you speak up straight? Even if Chen Mu can make the business as big as the Xincheng Group, he can't make them feel inferior, right
