Shenhao: Please stop messing around

Chapter 199 Chapter 198, Give a cigarette to the boss (6K)

"Have dinner with your dad tonight."

Walking out of the inner room, Lin Chu said as if nothing had happened, with a faint smile on his face.

Not to mention Zhou Luan, even Zhou Xuan was slightly stunned and a little surprised when he heard this.

Didn’t the boss go to Beijing to raise funds?
You came back just for such a small matter?

Or...did Mr. Lin talk to him about something else?

"What did you tell my dad?"

Zhou Luan came back to her senses and asked gently, pursing her lips.

From last night till now, her impression of Lin Chu has changed. The label she gave Lin Chu changed from "a bastard who stole my baby" to "a bastard who has something."

"Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run, and they are just worrying about you."

Lin Chu said with a grin.

Zhou Luan heard that the reference was unclear and that the man was being treated as the father in a very subtle way. He rolled his eyes at him and didn't even have a way to refute it.

Listening to the two bickering, Zhou Xuan smiled, thought for a moment, and said, "Then I'll go back to the company first, as I have a meeting later. Mr. Lin, shall we meet later? I'll add your contact information."

He took out his cell phone.

Lin Chu naturally would not refuse this and added it casually.

Seeing this, Zhou Luan said again: "Pull me off the blacklist! What a bad habit you have. You block others just because you don't agree with them. You're like a spoiled little princess!"

"Ah."

Lin Chu glanced at her nonchalantly and said, "No, no, compared to you, I am still far behind. If you don't agree with me, you have to close the place. Wherever you go, does that mean the whole city has to be closed?"

Zhou Luan: ...

Be careful!
However, she didn't say this out loud.

There was a knock on the door. Li Ziming came in and Zhou Xuan went out.

After entering the room, Li Ziming looked at Lin Chu: "Boss Lin, what's wrong? Please tell me."

"Do you know me?"

Lin Chu pursed his lips.

Zhou Luan quickly and politely greeted him: "Hello, Uncle Li. Now I should call him, Hello, Mr. Li."

She is quite double standard.

In front of male elders, they always act very polite and well-behaved.

But for a boy of the same age like Lin Chu who is only a few years older than him, he has an instinctive arrogance that is difficult to erase even with the halo of identity and status.

Li Ziming naturally recognized her, as she was Boss Zhou's daughter.

It's just that this...

"Mr. Zhou wants to train his daughter's emotional intelligence, so he asked me to arrange for her to intern at the club. I thought about it and decided to let you take her with you as an assistant. The internship period is three months, but there is no salary."

Lin Chu said with a faint smile on his face.

Things are like the two ends of a scale, one side gains while the other loses.

He used the method of "borrowing money" to deal with Zhou Ming and they even made an appointment for dinner in the evening. Naturally, he spoke more confidently in front of Zhou Luan.

Every bit of savings counts.

She's not short of money anyway.

It’s a good thing that she didn’t have to pay to work.

When Zhou Luan heard this, he took a deep breath and immediately shouted, "That won't work! You are breaking the law! You are delaying the interns' wages!"

Li Ziming could vaguely see that the two "young men" were bickering with each other, and there seemed to be a bit of a happy enemy feeling between them. Well, this was not something I could get involved in, so he wisely shut up and just watch the show.

"Then how much do you want?"

Lin Chu pretended to be serious and asked with a sigh.

Zhou Luan raised his head and thought for a moment, pouting, "Fifty thousand a month! This is just my pocket money!"

Hearing this, Concubine Liang beside her wanted to laugh.

——Is this the psychological standard of the daughter of a real estate group's CEO?

"Then don't do it anymore. Start a company and I'll give you an internship. Five thousand at most. Just a token of my appreciation. Don't push me too far."

Lin Chu directly cut the price to 10%.

she:……

"Ten thousand!"

He gritted his teeth and said.

"No way, just five thousand, after tax."

Zhou Luan glared at him, and felt that he was uneducated: "Five thousand yuan is tax-free!"

Lin Chu...cough cough.

I couldn't help but laugh dryly for a moment.

Shit, forget about it.

"That's perfect. With your net income, the club will also pay for your five insurances and one housing fund. Go ahead and register for employment."

Seeing Lin Chu's firm attitude, Zhou Luan took a deep breath, snorted, and didn't bother to talk nonsense with him. He turned around and walked out the door.

Lin Chu winked, Li Ziming said goodbye, and quickly followed.

Get it!

Lin Chu stretched, lit a cigarette, leaned back tactically, and leaned comfortably on the sofa.

After thinking about it, he pulled Zhou Luan off the blacklist, but immediately sent her another message: "Your father gave me a document when he handed over the equity. It records that Li Ziming has embezzled about 20 million yuan in the club over the years. You follow him and be careful. Your father has allowed this kind of thing, so I will naturally let it go, but in the future, if you find any problems, report to me at any time, and you will get 10% of the amount involved."

Zhou Luan's age and personality meant that she was destined to be a straight-laced woman. She also had feelings for the club and would definitely not tolerate such things.

From a standpoint, she certainly would not collude with Li Ziming.

Since she's already an assistant, give her more work.

Make the best use of people.

now.

Zhou Luan, who was about to go to the human resources department to complete the employment procedures, took a look at the news and was stunned again.

I felt a little bit of disbelief in my heart.

But soon, I understood it.

She understands the truth.

If the water is clear, there will be no fish.

Lin Chu's actions made her feel more identified. The club is "my home" and the salary is already so high, so why are you still greedy?

"I see. Isn't 10% a bit too little?"

She avoided Li Ziming's reply as if nothing had happened, with a subconscious curve appearing at the corner of her mouth.

Lin Chu: "At most 1.1%, if not, forget it."

she:……

I'll just scratch you to death!
……

Half past five in the evening.

The club's dining room box.

Lan Yuzheng arrived first. This time he went to the meeting alone again, and he was bold as usual.

After Lin Chu received his call, he came down early.

Zhou Ming and his guests are still on the road and it will probably take another ten minutes.

Let’s go meet the rogue first.

When they first met, Lan Yuzheng showed great enthusiasm. He took the initiative to step forward, shook Lin Chu with both hands, and shook hands vigorously twice.

Lan Yuzheng already knew about the "Golden Club" of the LC Club and the Golden Old Friends Tournament, but he didn't think it had anything to do with him. He guessed that it was probably a move that Lin Chu had made long ago.

This naturally further highlights the strength of the LC club and its owner Lin Chu.

Moreover, the price increase of the club’s annual card also shows a determination to create a more high-end club image.

This made him feel that Lin Chu was even more capable and that he should pay more attention to the way and method of doing things.

Of course, no matter what, I will not give up my goals easily.

"Let's smoke. There's a customer. Let's chat for a while."

Lin Chu handed him a cigarette, smiling, and took him into the tea room next door to make tea.

Any other guests?

Lan Yuzheng's heart moved slightly, but he naturally couldn't guess who it was.

But the guest followed the host's wishes and drank tea first.

As soon as he saw the jade necklace hanging on Lin Chu's neck, he secretly praised him in his heart again, thinking he was really rich!

This piece of imperial green jade is definitely not worth the price without 50 million.

Having worked as a stacker for many years, he has the ability to judge someone's worth at a glance.

"There's been a lot going on lately. Mr. Li mentioned you to me. Tell me first, what do you want to do?"

Lin Chu poured him a cup of tea and asked casually.

You come right up and ask about business?

Lan Yuzheng was no stranger to this style. He felt that he was the kind of bossy young master, so he smiled and said, "Haha, I came to visit first to do business. Mr. Lin wants to build a high-end club, so the hardware must be upgraded. Our company is definitely the most professional in this field..."

"I heard that you once forced a stadium owner to death? What happened?"

Lin Chu continued to ask without waiting for him to finish.

Uh.

This……

Lan Yuzheng was not embarrassed at all, and still smiled brightly: "How could it be possible? I do business in accordance with the law, and I would never do such a thing. That incident was an accident. His stadium was originally illegal, and it was singled out for attention by a senior leader. No one can save him, I..."

Lin Chu didn't wait for him to finish and interrupted again, asking, "Who did you eat with?"

Lan Yuzheng: ...

I was speechless for a moment.

This kind of question asked by a young man is really lacking in business etiquette, but considering the other party's identity, it seems very reasonable.

Say no?
Without a big brother, what’s the point of eating?
But you have to say yes, right?
It’s hard to say.

If this person makes a phone call to trace his roots and finds that the mountain is not as high as his, it will be a big trouble.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, but Lan Yuzheng's smile did not diminish. He used a metaphor to respond vaguely: "As for me, I am actually the organizer of the party. There is no question of who to eat with. I just prepare a table of good wine and good food, and we all eat together."

Lin Chu looked at him with a half-smile: "Oh? So I really like wine and food."

He was suddenly choked, and his sharp Adam's apple moved up and down twice.

"How can that be possible? Mr. Lin, what are you talking about? You are Party A, the big Party A, and I am just a small Party B. I take your money, do your work, and earn a hard-earned fee for running errands."

Lan Yuzheng was still responding vaguely, saying he was a little submissive, but it was nothing.

Red money is real.

"Are you familiar with Ao Island?"

Lin Chu suddenly asked again at this time.

The topic was completely different. The muscles on Lan Yuzheng's face twitched twice, as if it was an instinctive muscle reaction like a conditioned reflex.

"I'm not very familiar with him. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

He responded with a smile.

"I've been a stacker for so many years, aren't you familiar with it? Hey, do you have any dirt on me? If you have a suitable target, let's set up a trap. I'm doing serious business here and don't want to get entangled with people like you. Aren't you just looking for money? I'll show you a way to make money, and you've come to me for it."

Lin Chu hit the nail on the head and spoke condescendingly, even seeming arrogant.

Lan Yuzheng...feels a little numb.

Suddenly, I felt that everything about me had been seen through.

"Mr. Lin recognized the wrong person, didn't he?"

He continued to deny.

This kind of identity must never be discussed openly. No matter in the political or business circles, it would be very troublesome if one's dark history were to be exposed.

Which official would be willing to have contact with a code-stacker?

Which business owner would be willing to deal with a stacker?

Except for real gamblers.

Otherwise, you have to consider your own reputation.

"You are such a fucking boring person. I don't mind. Who can you hide from me if you hide something?"

"Do you really think the Economic Investigation Bureau didn't have your information on file?"

Lin Chu discovered his weakness and suddenly felt at ease.

The five hundred thousand is really worth it.

I have to ask Yang Huixian later what kind of company it is and why it has such a wide range of sources of information?

It seems that Lan Yuzheng himself had kept his previous identity very secret and it should not have been "exposed" by anyone before.

After talking about this, Lin Chu even felt that there was no need to look for Zhou Ming.

This scoundrel is just a tiger in disguise! Lan Yuzheng has fallen completely silent at this moment.

Economic investigation?

Which economic investigation department?
It would be a lie to say you are not panicking.

Although I do know some powerful people in the golf field, it has nothing to do with economic investigation.

And Lin Chu...

These materials obviously come from economic investigation.

Have I been targeted?
Taking a deep breath, he glanced at Lin Chu. Seeing Lin Chu looking at him teasingly, he said with an unchanged smile, "It seems that Mr. Lin really made a mistake. Hahahaha, the more you talk, the less I understand."

Under the table, my palms were already sweating slightly.

Lin Chu stood up, looked at him thoughtfully, and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, okay, oh, whatever you want, it's boring. Let's go, it's time to eat."

Lan Yuzheng followed him and walked out of the teahouse.

……

At this time.

Zhou Luan was already waiting at the door of the box.

Zhou Ming and a tall, gray-haired old man walked in from the door together.

"father!"

Zhou Luan immediately took light steps, holding the hem of her skirt, and walked towards him in small steps.

"Hello, Uncle Jiang."

Then he greeted the old man again.

The three of them were chatting and laughing when Lin Chu led Lan Yuzheng out of the tea room. When Lan Yuzheng saw the "lineup" over there, his pupils suddenly shrank for a moment.

Then he looked at Lin Chu.

What does this dinner party mean?
Lin Chu patted his shoulder: "What's wrong?"

He smiled casually: "It's okay, they are old acquaintances, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Jiang."

"You know him?"

"Old Zhou asked me to borrow money urgently. He made an appointment for dinner tonight, so I joined him. Hey, what does Old Jiang do? Tell me about it."

Lan Yuzheng sniffed.

For a moment, I didn't know whether Lin Chu was really teasing me or he really didn't know.

"He's Mr. Zhou's old comrade-in-arms, from the political and legal field, but he's retired now."

He said with a nonchalant smile.

Lin Chu immediately understood that Zhou Ming also used this method to deal with the situation.

Now that Mr. Jiang has retired, everything will be easy.

However, he doesn't look very old and has only been retired for a few years.

This kind of old man certainly doesn't have as much power as when he was in power, but it is more than enough to suppress a rogue in the business world.

At this moment, Lin Chu suddenly felt a little touched in his heart.

Lan Yuzheng may indeed have power in the field of golf, which may cause various adverse effects on the course, or even worse, completely break off relations and lead to closure of the course.

Thinking of "defending" in this direction is troublesome and entangled, and may not be effective.

But change your mindset...

——If you dare to mess with me, I will arrest your people directly.

This is very comfortable.

Of course, I was just relying on the power of others to bully others, relying on intelligence, and secretly in line with this idea, I didn't even use "Uncle Nine".

And Zhou Ming really has comrades-in-arms.

"Oh, then I really don't know him. But let's go. If we meet, we can have a drink together and make friends."

Lin Chu said casually, and then walked over there with a smile.

Lan Yuzheng: ...

He stood there petrified for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and then went forward.

Has the friendship between Lin Chu and Zhou Ming reached this level?
Or, is there something inside here that I don't understand?
……

Lin Chu walked over, exchanged a few words of greeting, and without talking any more, took a few people into the box.

Zhou Ming glanced at the two of them and felt that the atmosphere was a little subtle.

It seems that it is not that serious.

After considering it, he took the initiative to introduce with a smile: "My old friend, Jiang Fangguo, is also a golf fan, but he doesn't play much. When I was here before, he avoided me and didn't come to my golf course. Now that he has retired, I have retired too, and I feel relieved."

Lin Chu deliberately called the wrong name and said with a smile: "Welcome, Mr. Jiang. Playing ball is good. Climbing high and looking at the mountains and rivers is refreshing. It makes your body feel good after exercise. You are welcome to come often. Xiaoluan is working here now. If you want to come later, just tell her directly."

Lin Chu didn't say anything about giving a card, so there was no need to add unnecessary details.

Zhou Luan immediately smiled and said, "Okay."

Jiang Fangguo also smiled when he heard this: "Great, young people are really excellent. You are a white knight. Old Zhou told me that you are young, have a good way to make money, and have good character. You are really the wave behind pushing the wave ahead."

He praised Lin Chu highly, which of course was not flattery, but just normal courtesy.

It seems that his relationship with Zhou Ming is really very good.

"I am over-flattered."

Lin Chu said a few polite words and then went to tell the waiter to serve the food.

They were the ones chatting the whole time, and Lan Yuzheng didn't say a word, as if he was being ignored.

He was thinking at this moment that perhaps Lin Chu really didn't know Jiang Fangguo.

After all, it’s not played that way.

What is Mr. Jiang’s identity?
Is it necessary to be so "condescending" as to praise a young man to the sky?
On the contrary... it seems that Zhou Ming and Mr. Jiang want something from Lin Chu?

Thinking of this, he was even more shocked.

Look again and look again.

……

"I have no problem with what Mr. Zhou told me today, but even though we are friends, brothers still have to settle accounts."

"As for the funds, I can help you, but we need to agree on the interest rate and have necessary collateral. Of course, both of these can be negotiated, as long as the interest rate is higher than the bank deposit rate."

After eating for a while, Lin Chu took the initiative to bring up the matter without waiting for Zhou Ming to speak.

At this point, Lan Yuzheng’s problem can be said to have been completely resolved.

There's no need to worry about him at all.

He himself is also very knowledgeable and quiet, as if he has become his own assistant.

Zhou Ming looked at Lin Chu deeply, and for a moment, he was somewhat moved by such generous conditions.

During this period of business trip, I visited so many temples and prayed to so many Buddhas, and finally I discovered that the true God is actually here!

Hey……

"Well, you guys chat first, I'm going to the bathroom."

Jiang Fangguo coughed lightly and stood up on his own initiative.

When we start talking about this kind of topic, it is naturally inconvenient for outsiders to listen in.

"Boss Lin, I need to take a call."

Lan Yuzheng also spoke quickly and stood up with a smile.

Zhou Ming actually wanted to borrow money from Lin Chu!

Lin Chu also agreed!

Throwing money into the bottomless pit of real estate!
He was deeply shocked and got a glimpse of what the two people really wanted to talk about at the dinner.

That's not just a matter of tens of millions, it's at least hundreds of millions, or even billions!
How powerful is Lin Chu? How deep is his background?

After the two of them left, Zhou Luan stayed for a while and didn't want to leave. She wanted to listen in on things like this and just gain some experience.

Neither of them minded.

"How big is the financial hole in Mingliu Real Estate now?"

"Give me the psychological expectation first."

Lin Chu said as if nothing had happened.

Zhou Ming's eyes flickered with a different look: "The short-term debt within one year is about 1.9 billion, and the long-term debt within three years is 5.2 billion."

"The main problem now is that banks are withdrawing loans. Next month, we have to repay a loan of 800 million yuan, and the company's account is basically empty."

"Normal financing channels, such as banks, bonds, mortgages, and even equity, have been almost frozen, and property sales are also far from ideal."

"My biggest failure was that Mingliu Real Estate had not been listed before. Of course, even if it had been listed, it might not have helped, but would have made the problem worse."

"I can say responsibly that this is almost a bottomless pit. Even if I borrow money from you with collateral, if the market environment is not good, I will most likely not be able to pay it back. I can only use land or real estate as collateral."

Hearing this, Zhou Luan secretly clenched his fists, pursed his lips, and his eyes revealed a solemn look.

So the situation at home has become so difficult?

Lin Chu thought this was normal. It was probably the case with all real estate companies nowadays.

“Where are your land reserves currently?”

Lin Chu asked again.

Zhou Ming spoke in a heavy tone, but he knew them all by heart: "It's mainly in the Greater Bay Area. Pengcheng no longer has any, but Yangcheng has one, Zengcheng has two, Guancheng has one, Huicheng has one, and Focheng has one. The progress of development and construction varies, and most of them are currently in a semi-suspended state."

Listening to this, Lin Chu suddenly chuckled: "Isn't it a bit too extravagant to use construction land to build a nursing home?"

Ok?
Zhou Ming understood what he meant and nodded with a wry smile.

"It's really luxurious! Mr. Lin is optimistic about the elderly care industry?"

Lin Chu smiled, but quickly made a decision: "Let's be extravagant. Send me the information of several plots of land. I'll take a look and see which one is suitable for building a nursing home."

Zhou Ming took a deep breath and was speechless.

Young people are really... willful.

Zhou Luan suddenly looked at Lin Chu and interrupted, "Why do you want to build a nursing home?"

Lin Chu replied casually, "More than just a nursing home. We are planning to build a nursing home and a welfare home. This is what I promised others. The club's charity fund is also being prepared and established."

she:……

You bastard, is there such a great love?

This, this feeling is really inconsistent.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed it.

However, at this time, she did not argue anymore, whether because of her family situation or because of this "loftiness".

Zhou Ming said solemnly: "Okay, I'll have someone sort out the information and send it to you within a day. Let's keep in touch. Regardless of whether the cooperation is successful in the end, Mr. Lin, I owe you this favor."

Lin Chu waved his hand and smiled.

"Let's talk about it after it's done."

……

At this time.

Outside the box door.

Lan Yuzheng was smoking when he was suddenly "caught" by Jiang Fangguo's eyes.

He smiled calmly, but he was somewhat nervous inside.

"I think I've seen you before? I remember your last name is Lan."

Jiang Fangguo asked with a smile.

Lan Yuzheng bent down slightly, took the initiative to extend his hand, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, Director Jiang, my name is Lan Yuzheng, we met once about four years ago."

Jiang Fangguo waved his hand: "What hall or no hall? He's retired. He's just an ordinary old man."

Lan Yuzheng saw that he was staring at him, revealing the feeling of "a lifetime of military service", and suddenly he felt a little scared.

He smiled awkwardly, realizing that the old man was asking him a question.

In other words, it’s not asking, it’s forcing.

No one has to speak up, you have to respond.

Hey……

"Yes, yes. After working so hard for so many years, it's time to rest. How high a person can fly is not a skill. Being able to land smoothly is the real skill. I have to learn from you."

He sighed and said.

Jiang Fangguo laughed, nodded, and patted him on the shoulder: "Well said, your awareness is quite high, but you have to be able to do it."

Lan Yuzheng quickly smiled and said, "Of course, of course."

"What kind of cigarette are you smoking? Give me one."

Jiang Fangguo asked him for a cigarette with a smile.

Lan Yuzheng suddenly felt all the pressure go away, and he quickly handed a cigarette to Mr. Jiang and lit it respectfully.

……
