Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 229

Director Li was holding a teacup and pouring water for them one by one.

The secretary and accountant were also dressed neatly as Xu Lei had instructed.

This time, it was clearly a negotiation, which made Director Li very happy.

"The main thing is to compare prices from different suppliers, after all, acquiring land is such a big deal."

It's not a small amount, so I have to check it carefully, right? And this is just my personal assumption.

A company that big has to listen to other people's ideas, so...

The plan was to bring the accountant and secretary along for this discussion, and then go back to consult with the other company directors.

Xu Lei's words suddenly seemed less certain, which made Director Li a little anxious.

"Hey, a big boss like you always values ​​decisiveness in business."

In this business world, it's all about seizing the opportunity. If you get caught up in the 170, you might miss such a great opportunity.

"You might not be able to make a lot of money in the future. You're a big boss. From the first moment I saw you, I knew you were different from others."

Xu Lei thought the flowers were praising him quite highly, but he had no intention of having any contact with them at the moment.

They were simply told to stay there for now; things hadn't reached the final stage yet.

Xu Lei didn't want to make things so bad for both of them; right now, he just wanted to stay here peacefully.

"Thank you, Director Li. I appreciate your kind words. I was just thinking of doing more, but I've heard some gossip."

Of course, we don't believe in these ghost and spirit beliefs, but I heard that the feng shui here seems to have some problems.

You know I'm a businessman; I don't believe in everything else, but I'm biased towards these things. Sometimes you can't help but believe them.

Qiao Xulei spoke in a low voice, and his tone became increasingly sinister, which made Director Li feel uneasy.

This negotiation was just a formal negotiation process, including the division of territories.

Check which area the land will be allocated to and how many households there will be in total.

Director Li was clearly well-prepared.

Xu Lei answered the questions in a well-organized manner, but as for the price, he didn't ask Director Li and was too embarrassed to bring it up.

He was so anxious, knowing that Li Dahai had returned very anxiously after Xu Lei left.

Knowing that her father hadn't settled on a price yet, she was extremely anxious.

Chapter 260, please help me calculate it too.

He's already heavily in debt and is just waiting for Xu Lei's money to pay off his debts.

But his father never mentioned it, which made him extremely anxious.

"I said, Dad, you really are my dad, how come you never kick such an important thing?"

So what are you all talking about here? The weather, huh?

Director Li ignored his son's sarcastic remarks; all he could think about was the feng shui of his home.

Could it be that, as those older women in the community say, there really is a problem with the feng shui of my home?

Moreover, Director Li was actually a little uneasy about this.

So many people say he plays accurately, and Xu Lei also said he consulted a feng shui master.

He was still a little anxious, so he secretly went to Aunt Wang's house and brought her some fruit.

Wanting to find out how to contact the Taoist priest, Xu Lei returned to the villa.

Xiao Qiang had been waiting at home. Following Xu Lei's instructions, he had to pretend to be a Taoist priest for the past two days.

He doesn't do any work and doesn't allow him to show his face, so Xiaoqiang can only stay in this house and look after the place for him.

"How did the talks go, boss? Those guys didn't give you any trouble, did they?"

After meeting Director Li's son, Xiao Qiang realized that he was someone not to be trifled with.

Moreover, he was extremely arrogant and conceited, and just because he had a group of underlings, he really thought he was the boss.

So everyone avoids this kind of person; no one wants to get involved with him now.

"You've had enough rest these past few days. A big job is coming up in a few days."

As soon as Xu Lei finished speaking, Xiao Qiang's phone rang; it was his work phone.

As soon as Xiaoqiang answered the phone and put it on speakerphone, he heard Director Li's voice.

Xu Lei smiled; it seemed a big fish had taken the bait.

"Boss, Director Li has already discussed it with me. We'll go to his neighborhood tomorrow to help look at the houses."

I'm just a little curious, wasn't Director Li the one who least believed in these feng shui legends before?

"Why is he so anxious to come find me now, after I've only been there twice?"

Xu Lei saw that Xiao Qiang looked suspicious. He had made a bet with Xiao Qiang that Director Li would definitely not take the bait.

Even if the elderly people in the community really believe it, the number of people affected is still too small.

It won't cause too much of a stir, but Xiaoqiang only guessed half right this time.

Although everyone has their own principles, when the people around them begin to believe...

He had no choice but to believe it, especially considering that his son had been getting into trouble all these years.

Director Li has been feeling quite troubled lately, fearing that things will drag on and he'll end up with nothing.

Xu Lei's acquisition of this company reflects his view of it as a beacon of hope for his future.

He hoped to turn things around through this incident, but Xu Lei's attitude is unclear.

This made Director Li extremely anxious, and he wanted to find out the truth.

Wanting to see if Xu Lei could trust her, the aunties around her all said there would definitely be no problem.

Moreover, they were good at calculating, so they acted out of their anxiety.

"Should we ask you to come over and have your fortune told?"

After Xu Lei finished speaking, Xiao Qiang nodded slightly. He didn't think his calculations were that accurate.

He thought the boss was the most capable. At first, he thought Director Li couldn't possibly fall for such a trick, but he didn't expect him to turn around and come looking for him.

"His son has always been a good-for-nothing, and he's gotten into trouble these past few days. Memorize his information, and tomorrow people will definitely call you a fortune teller."

The balance data revealed that the boss had come prepared; it contained all sorts of information about Li Dahai.

Including the extremely secretive and unknown Xu Lei, if you want to get your hands on him, you can definitely do it.

I have to thank my dad for that; he's been helping me gather a lot of things these past few days.

"That kid is a real bastard, how could he do something so disgusting?"

He really has the nerve! If this continues, I'll have to give him a piece of my mind tomorrow.

Xiao Qiang felt extremely disgusted upon seeing this, so he only received Xu Lei's message that tomorrow would be his time to show his skills.

After this negotiation, Director Li also gave it to Xu Lei that evening.

He called to ask her opinion.

"This piece of land would have been easier to manage if I were in office, but in a couple of days, when the person taking over arrives..."

"Well, that's hard to say. You know the policies are getting stricter every day. If you act now, things might be better."

Director Li's words were indeed tactful; he wanted to skim more profits while you were around.

But he wasn't willing to say everything, so he waited for Xu Lei to give him more pointers at this time.

Xu Lei was certainly not stupid; with the land now priced so high, he was waiting for the right opportunity.

Xiaoqiang has already made his move; we're just waiting to see the results tomorrow.

"Although I really like this location, when doing business, you have to consider whether you can break even."

I'm also worried if the price is too high.

Director Li understood then that Xu Lei wouldn't offer him a price voluntarily.

He was planning to make himself speak out and say it outright.

If things escalate, it could very well leave everyone in an awkward position.

But he still suppressed his anger.

"Well, there has to be a price that pops up."

Xu Lei nodded.

"How about we wait until next Monday? I'll discuss it with my parents on Monday and then I'll go see you."

After hanging up the phone, Director Li's face immediately fell, feeling that Xu Lei clearly lacked sincerity.

Instead, they were being led astray. Li Dahai couldn't care less about that at the moment; now that someone finally wanted to buy from them, he was all set.

“There are plenty of people who want their homes demolished now, but it’s rare to find someone who is rich enough to come up with so much money all at once.”

Even though Li Dahai had his own plans, the hotel business was so bad right now.

He wanted to take this opportunity to squeeze as much money as possible out of Xu Lei, even if it was just a little.

However, Xu Lei's lack of enthusiasm is making Li Dahai very anxious.

Xu Lei knew that his project had recently encountered several major problems and he needed to make up for the deficit.

Therefore, he would definitely want his father to finalize the project as soon as possible, but Xu Lei seemed indifferent and unhurried.

Li Dahai became increasingly anxious.

"Xiaoqiang, please do two more things for me."

Xiao Qiang immediately stood up; he was getting really irritated by being here for the past few days.

He was overjoyed to receive the assignment, and Wang Jianguo insisted on going along as well.

Xu Lei didn't want him to get involved in these things, but Wang Jianguo was not one to back down.

Since everyone else was on his side, he agreed.

"Just go and cause trouble. Remember not to make things too big. Make a scene and come back quickly, and don't reveal your identity."

Li Hai has offended too many people outside. He was too arrogant before, always thinking that he was too capable.

And it always manages to cause a lot of trouble, but for now it seems that everything is calm.

It didn't cause too many problems, but now it's making it impossible for many people to live in peace.

Chapter 261 A Laughingstock

Xu Lei slapped him, making a scene to give him a reminder; he was naturally afraid, given the amount of trouble he was involved in.

The situation is going to get really bad. Xu Lei sent Xiao Qiang to handle it.

Li Dahai couldn't sit still any longer and insisted on having him, so his father quickly settled the matter.

"Even if it's just a small deposit, or a small favor we receive privately, it's fine."

He wants to demolish the whole piece of land, so there has to be some reason for it.

Previously, those people would come to our house with big bags and small packages, just to see if we could make some money off them even if the project didn't go through.

But he's done nothing, except for those few broken eggs.

Li Dahai's anxiety worried Director Li, who feared he might have gotten into some serious trouble again.

"Tell me, have you gotten into trouble again?"

Director Li's question only made Li Dahai more anxious. He was already angry, and then there was the trouble someone had caused a couple of days ago.

He can't handle it anymore; he has to settle it with money. The deficit is huge, and if he can't pay it back...

His shop will probably have to be sold to someone else, and only then will he become a laughing stock in his circle of friends.

He was so impressive when he opened this bottle of wine, and so many people came over to flatter and fawn over him.

Now, when I'm slightly down on my luck, I feel like a tiger fallen into the plains, bullied by dogs. It's really frustrating.

"Lets see."
