Chapter 3697: Chapter 3689: Face-Slapping at the Speed of Light
Chen Yuying, who was working on documents, looked up at Xu Kai.
"What’s the matter?"
"I think offering a price of 13 million is completely ridiculous." Xu Kai said indignantly:
"Besides, his analysis makes no sense at all. It’s purely subjective conjecture, absolutely unreasonable. We mustn’t listen to him."
Chen Yuying pushed up her glasses and put down her pen.
"Then tell me your thoughts, how can we secure this piece of land?"
"From my internship experience in big factories, although the location of the flour mill isn’t ideal, its area and facilities make up for this disadvantage. It’s definitely very desirable. If we delay a few days, it might be snatched away. Also..."
Pausing, Xu Kai continued:
"He previously said that the person called President Zhang was a stooge brought by Ma Wenbo. I think this is nonsense. This is reality, not a novel. He’s just being ridiculous!"
"So your idea is to spend 21 million to buy that land?"
"No need, I think we can secure it for 20.5 million." Xu Kai said confidently:
"Leave this to me, I’m confident I can get the land."
"If we buy the land at this price, the company’s cash flow will be very tight. More loans mean more interest. At the same time, banks will evaluate risks. It’s not easy to get such a large loan."
Hearing this, Xu Kai smiled.
"I know some people on the banking side who can help with the process. I don’t think it will be a big issue."
Chen Yuying frowned slightly.
For her, the issue of the loan was not a big deal; she believed the land wasn’t worth 20.5 million.
If they really bought it, it would tie up at least six months of profit.
This was not something she wanted to see.
"President Chen, I think there’s no need to consider anymore; the opportunity won’t come again." Xu Kai said:
"Also, he said he was going to put on a show at the Lingyun Industrial Park. It’s pure nonsense. Ma Wenbo has mingled in this circle and can spot the tricks at a glance. He’s just a driver; we aren’t in the same league at all. His ideas are limited, and we definitely shouldn’t trust him."
"I’ll think about it again."
"President Chen, this really doesn’t need any further thought. If we miss it, it would be a shame." Xu Kai said:
"During my year working in large factories, I understood many truths. The successful big bosses succeed because they seize fleeting opportunities, so when the time is right, don’t hesitate to act."
"I understand these truths, but primarily, the company’s conditions don’t allow it." Chen Yuying said:
"For now, let’s go with his method."
"But the problem is that it can’t be done. He said to visit the Lingyun Industrial Park and put on a show, but that’s impossible. It’s a nationally renowned company; how could they pay attention to us?"
"He will figure it out. We don’t have to worry about it."
"Don’t listen to his boasting." Xu Kai scoffed:
"He’s just a driver; how could he contact something like this."
"You don’t know him. He’s not someone who brags. What he says he can usually deliver."
"President Chen, you’re wrong about this." Xu Kai laughed and said:
"I often take taxis, and I’m too familiar with the driver crowd. These people have never stopped boasting. You can’t believe what they say."
Chen Yuying slightly furrowed her brow, feeling a twinge of repulsion.
Ability aside, she couldn’t stand people who slander others behind their backs.
Screech——
Just then, Lin Yi pushed the door open and entered.
Both looked at him, and Xu Kai’s expression instantly changed.
"Do you have any manners, coming into the General Manager’s office without knocking? Do you think this is your home?"
"You’re just an employee; this isn’t your business, is it? Are you being a bit of a rat, meddling in others’ affairs?"
Getting countered by Lin Yi, Xu Kai was stunned, not expecting Lin Yi to retort.
"President Chen, look at this person, really no sense of decorum!"
"Alright, that’s enough."
Chen Yuying sternly stopped Xu Kai, looked at Lin Yi, and said:
"What is it?"
"Didn’t you ask me to put on a show before? The Lingyun Industrial Park situation is settled, we can go anytime."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, both were stunned.
"Got in touch so quickly?"
"It’s no big deal. Besides, I think we can take a look at their logistics management model when we visit; there might be things worth learning."
"If such an opportunity is indeed there, that would be great."
Chen Yuying looked at Lin Yi, "When did you arrange the visit?"
"Anytime, you just set it up."
"It’s a bit late today, let’s go tomorrow."
Chen Yuying glanced at the time, "When does Tongtong have class tomorrow?"
"In the morning, none in the afternoon."
"After dropping her off tomorrow, we can go together."
"Okay."
After finishing business, Lin Yi left.
In the office, Chen Yuying glanced at Xu Kai.
"If there’s nothing else, get back to work. I have other matters to handle."
"I-I understand..."
Xu Kai looked awkward, being slapped in the face so quickly left him without face.
No matter how displeased he was with Lin Yi, there was nothing more he could say.
He had to leave.
Watching Xu Kai’s departing back, Chen Yuying shook her head helplessly.
Such a person is hard to make great use of.
Similar in age to Lin Yi, but the gap between them was significant.
Shaking her head helplessly, realizing again the disparity between people, and how difficult it is to bridge it.
At six in the evening, the Chen sisters got in the car, and Lin Yi drove them home.
"Sister, what’s up with Xu Kai? Just started working and already badmouthing Lin Bro." Chen Yutong said, annoyed.
"He came to see you too?"
"He came after lunch, but I shut him down. I dislike those who gossip behind others’ backs." Chen Yutong said:
"Since childhood, I thought he wasn’t great. Growing up, he only got worse. Better to just fire him soon."
"Let’s wait a bit. After all, he was introduced by our dad. Can’t just fire someone on their first day."
"Then find a reason to fire him. He’s so annoying."
"Don’t rush. Your Lin Bro isn’t rushing, so you shouldn’t either."
"Lin Bro has a good temper, I can’t stand it."
"Calm down."
After a word of comfort, Chen Yutong focused her gaze on Lin Yi.
"For the visit, since you contacted a friend, do you need to treat them to a meal or give a gift? There are plenty in my office. Take whatever you need."
"No need to make a big deal, it’s not a huge affair."
