074: Five Thunders
Lisa’s dad sent an assistant called Li Duzhi. His purpose was to assist Wang Hongwei in contracting the mountain of the Guan’s Village. In fact, he also came to watch Wang Hongwei in case he made mistakes, and inspect the north mountain that the company was interested in.
Wang Hongwei knew from his son's phone call that Li Duzhi was not an ordinary employee in Lisa's family’s company, so he took great care when receiving him. After the two came down from the mountain, his pants and shoes accidentally became dirty. Because of his lack of experience, Wang Hongwei didn't know that he should wear boots when he went up the mountain, and hurriedly invited the assistant to his own house.
He found a pair of boots for Li Duzhi after rummaging in the cabinet. The boots were several years old and covered with dust, but they could still be worn after wiping.
Although Li Duzhi was dissatisfied with these boots, his leather shoes were dirty. It would take several hours to wash them before wearing them again. He could only take off his shoes and put on the Western boots. Tolerating the discomfort, he went to the living room.
Wang Hongwei also changed.
The two sat in the living room and discussed contracting the mountain. Although they felt that there was no problem, Li Duzhi was still a bit worried.
Wang Hongwei may not have seen it, but Li Duzhi knew that Secretary Guan did not want them to contract the north mountain. As soon as he told this to Wang Hongwei, the latter patted his chest to reassure him.
"Assistant Li, your worries are actually superfluous. Besides us in the Guan’s Village, who else can afford the contracting costs? I have already inquired about it. At present, no one in the Guan’s Village has the intention of contracting. Even if outsiders want to contract and win the mountain, they can't compete with us. "
"You are so confident?" Li Duzhi actually looked down on Wang Hongwei. He knew that their family wanted to climb up to his boss, thinking that with millions of assets in his family, they could be compared with him. If it were not for their use, it would be impossible for the boss to let Miss Lisa associate with Wang Ningkai.
"Of course." Wang Hongwei lived most of his life, but he still could not see through juniors who were nearly a decade younger than him. "The Guan’s Village is somewhat exclusive. If they aren’t locals, it is impossible for them to contract the mountain. Even if we don’t say anything about it, Secretary Guan will reject them in one bite. "
Li Duzhi didn't take it seriously when he heard these words. He already knew about this. The boss had not been interested in the Guan’s Village’s mountain for just a day or two. The company wanted to expand and go further so they need to find more and better resources. In the past, the boss had fancied the Guan’s Village, but as soon as it was heard that they were outsiders, Secretary Guan directly rejected them.
Later, the boss accidentally learned that Wang Ningkai, Miss Lisa's target of interest, actually came from the Wang’s Village and now lived in the Guan’s Village. The plan that he had originally intended to abandon had been brought up again. This time, they became smarter. With the Guan’s Village resident, Wang Hongwei, Secretary Guan did not immediately refuse.
"Then quickly settle this matter." Li Duzhi didn't want to go out of his way. The sooner they settled this, the sooner he could go back for a business trip, and he wasn’t planning on coming here again.
"Okay, I'll talk to that person again in the afternoon to discuss this, and we should be able to do it tomorrow." Wang Hongwei responded.
The man he was talking about was an old man in the Guan’s Village. The old man had a son who worked in Wang Ningkai's construction company. Their family also planned to move out of the Guan’s Village. Wang Hongwei and Wang Ningkai discussed how to make the old man help them. It was decided that they would promote the old man’s son to foreman, and his wages would be more than doubled. Now, he managed a team of 20 or 30 people. The old man's family had benefited, so he promised to help.
