Chapter 559: Making Enemies for No Reason
However, these words still failed to impress the other two. Lao Cai looked at Mei Yiliang with some amusement, 'Right now, our hotel has two butlers, a man and a woman, who were recruited from the UK at high salaries. Next year, we will hire two more, in the hope of training a team of butlers to international standards,'
Liu Jizhong could not say anything else as he was choking on his words. However, he was not discouraged. He insisted that as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would fight for it with all his strength. 'Haha, then it seems we really see eye to eye. Is the delay in starting this project due to planning issues? I can help in this regard.
Or is it due to funding issues or staffing issues? I heard that your company is expanding rapidly at the moment, and that is not a problem either. I have both the funds and the staff. If you trust me, just take the land as your share, and I will do all the work, and you just wait for the dividends,'
he repeated what he had just said. 'As for the dividend ratio, that is negotiable. I am not actually doing this mainly for the money, I just think this is a good opportunity,'
Lao Cai shook his head and said that if someone said, "I am not actually doing this mainly for the money," then there was no doubt about it, they were definitely doing it for the money.
Perhaps knowing that his words would not satisfy Lao Cai and the others, Liu Jizhong jumped in before Lao Cai could finish speaking, saying, 'Then can you sell me the land? I'll pay 300,000 yuan per mu, or 500,000 yuan, on top of your purchase price.'
Lao Cai still shook his head, saying, 'Mr. Liu, we don't lack anything. The development plan has already been decided. Although we appreciate your interest, I'm afraid we can't cooperate. I hope we can have other opportunities to work together.'
Seeing that there was no chance at all, Liu Jizhong felt very frustrated and hurt. Just like yesterday when he met District Chief Sun, he walked towards the door with a long face. However, he was not giving up after all. After opening the door, he turned back and made a gesture, 'I can give you the maximum of this amount, 800,000 yuan per mu,'
but the husband and wife still shook their heads.
No one knows better than Feng Yiping the scarcity of land along the river and bordering the lake, and no one else has a clearer understanding of and confidence in housing prices.
Influenced by him, the senior management and many frontline employees of the group support Feng Yiping's views. Lao Cai and Mei Yiliang have already tasted the sweetness, so how could they be so short-sighted now?
Liu Jizhong is a very proud person. As he has made more money over the past two years, he has become more and more proud. In the past two days, he has been rejected twice in a row, and he really can't accept it.
Looking at his back, Mei Yiliang said, 'This is a very capable person, and he is also very passionate. If Yiping met him, he might be tempted to recruit him to the company,'
'Capable?' Lao Cai shook his head. "I've seen a lot of people like this. They may be capable and have a good eye for things, but they're too eager to act. They'll often bet everything on making money, without regard for any principles. It's just a fluke that they've made some achievements for the time being, and it's mainly thanks to the current good times. And people like this generally don't go far.'
He looked at Mei Yiliang and said, "In this regard, none of you are as good as Yiping. Why did I bring all my assets to cooperate with Yiping in the first place? Because he is more stable than us old men.
In this day and age, with our current conditions, the hard part is not how to make money, but which path to take to make money. You may not feel the direction that Yiping has set, but for me, it's all very good. Although it's not the fastest industry to make money, it's stable and won't get you into too much trouble, let alone big trouble.'
After receiving some more education, Mei Yiliang quickly changed the subject, 'Dad, what did you say?'
'Oh, yes, the metal products factory, I need to discuss it with you...' Cai then remembered why he had come.
Liu Jizhong kept his head down, but kept walking firmly towards the door. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. How could he have thought of it first, when they had all thought of it?
When he reached the hotel entrance, the driver had already pulled up. He went back, squeezed past the reception desk, and asked the receptionists, who were busy inside, with a smile, 'I heard that you have English butlers here. I'm staying upstairs, but I haven't received any service from them.'
'I'm sorry, sir, our team of English butlers currently only serves guests staying in the villas at the back,'
'You're not pulling my leg, are you?' Liu Jizhong looked unconvinced, 'The advertisement touts this as a reason to attract guests, but in reality, the so-called English butler service only exists in the advertisement,'
It was nearing noon, and many guests were gathered at the front desk, which was busy with check-outs. His question was extremely rude, as if a competitor had come to cause trouble. The three girls behind the counter didn't really want to deal with him, so the lobby manager on duty came over and said, 'Hello sir, can you come over here and have a seat for a while? Our British butler team will be delivering meals to the guests in the villa area in a moment,'
Liu Jizhong also sat down on the way. He didn't really believe it, and he really didn't want to believe that someone would want to get ahead of him in everything.
He sat there for only a few minutes when a group of young men in tuxedos, led by a very dignified middle-aged white man, appeared. Each of them carried a tray covered with a stainless steel tray cover, and they ignored the curious stares of the people in the lobby as they walked methodically towards the villas in the back.
What is a slap in the face? This is a slap in the face!
However, Liu Jizhong's face did not turn red, but turned ashen. Without saying a word, he got up and walked towards the door.
The lobby manager still wore a professional smile as he saw him off to the door, 'We are in the process of expanding our team of English butlers. By next year, they will also be able to provide services in the suites upstairs. We look forward to your visit and we sincerely welcome you to come again.'
This time, seeing Liu Jizhong's displeased expression and his heavy breathing, even Liu Jishan didn't dare to ask anything, but the result was obvious without having to ask.
Liu Jizhong fiercely loosened his tie, 'Brother, you take care of things at the travel agency, I've decided that I want to get into real estate,'
he glanced at the Jiasheng Holiday Hotel, which was gradually receding into the distance, 'You're all so arrogant now, but you'll definitely have a rude awakening in the future,'
he felt like he had been here before with the events of the past two days.
He remembered the people from the furniture factory before, and the way they looked at him now. He remembered the arrogant leaders before, and after the furniture factory closed down, in order to get their jobs, they gave him gifts, asked him to introduce them, or came to his house with big bags of gifts, saying all kinds of nice things, just to get him to promise to give their unqualified children a job at the restaurant downstairs.
And the person who said before that he 'could only be a salesman for life' now had to walk around the block when they saw him.
How has there been such a dramatic change in the people who previously looked down on him, ignored him and despised him? It's because he has successfully grown the business and made a lot of money.
He has raised the incident he encountered the past two days, and the incident of being mocked for 'working as a salesman for life' at the furniture factory's retail department, to a higher level, and at the same time, he has made up his mind that in the future, he will definitely make Mei Yiliang and Lao Cai look up to him, just like his former colleagues at the furniture factory did.
Hmph, you can ignore me now, but in the future, you won't be able to look up to me!
Mei Yiliang and Lao Cai didn't take today's incident to heart at all. The so-called cooperation must first be 'in agreement' before they can work together.
As the business gets bigger and better, there will naturally be more and more opportunities for cooperation. Similarly, there will definitely be more and more things that they cannot cooperate on. These are purely business decisions. If they cannot cooperate on this matter, they can wait for the next opportunity.
Mei Yiliang even admires Liu Jizhong's vision a little, and wonders if they can have dinner together sometime in the future. After all, many of this man's ideas coincide with those of his nephew.
Therefore, at that time, neither they nor Feng Yiping, who was far away in the capital, realised that, for no reason at all, they had made an enemy, and that this person would cause a lot of trouble in the future.
It was really unfair to make an enemy for no reason. To put it simply, you asked me to talk about cooperation, and I said I didn't need it, so you treated me as an enemy. Feng Yiping, who later learned the inside story, felt that there was really no way to reason with him.
At that time, he felt aggrieved, but in fact, there were people who were even more aggrieved than him.
For example, Xiao Feng from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils: Why was he set up by Madam Ma? Just because 'all the other men looked at me, but he didn't.'
There are all kinds of people in the world, and there are many people like Madam Ma who need to see a psychologist!
