Chapter Ninety-Eight: Another Way of Thinking
(Thanks to the new alliance leader Abei, there is another update tonight...... )
"Manager Cao is also modest, he can help Mr. Abacha and the Felician family, run several companies well, and even attract the United Bank of Oman to invest in the hydropower station in Lunta, how can it be regarded as a young and promising,"
Cao Mo wanted to continue to keep a low profile in front of Shen Ji and Lu Yan, but Zhou Han spared no effort to praise him, and there was still a hint of spring waves in his beautiful eyes.
"Manager Cao can be regarded as a self-made man, even in China, there are few people of the same age who can compare with him, right-Mr. Shen, you said that if you didn't rely on the Ding family, you would definitely be better than Manager Cao?"
"Haha, if I want to start from scratch, it may not be as good as Cao Mo. Shen Ji laughed.
Zhou Han is obviously squeezing Shen Ji, but the person who has the least taste in his heart is Lu Yan.
Shen Ji's ability is at least recognized by the Ding family, after Dongsheng Group established the overseas investment division, although Shen Ji is the vice president, but in fact he is in charge of the overseas department, and several overseas investment projects he has handled are impressive.
After comparison, Lu Yan didn't want to say that he couldn't officially take on a position in Taihua Group, and he was cheated by someone for 50 million last time, and in the end, the Lu family was dumb and suffered and wiped his ass clean for him.
Zhou Han started talking, Shen Ji himself was very interested in investment in Kanem, and the topic naturally turned to hydropower station and transmission grid investment.
Cao Mo spoke to Abacha beforehand, emphasizing that their top priority at present is to build the transmission grid.
The fundraising for the transmission grid has ended, and the project is now in the preparatory period.
However, the Blakes, Oppenheimer, and Rupert families, as well as the investors of the former Sika Aidet Power Company, complained that they had too few shares in the new power grid company, and it was impossible to accept new investors to participate at present, unless they paid several times the premium to buy their original shares.
The development of hydropower resources in the Lujiaochuan River requires a gradual process, and there are four or five damming sites that are very suitable for the construction of hydropower stations, all of which are reserved by Cao Mo for himself, and he does not want other hot money to pour in now.
Therefore, when Shen Ji asked about this, he and Abacha also talked about it in a little bit, and they didn't mean to go deeper.
Zhou Han led the topic to the industrial park project, and Abacha didn't have the energy to take care of this matter for the time being, so he shook it gently.
"The Sika Idet Power Grid Company you are talking about is still attracting more attention in Draculamo," Huang Hebin said, "I talked about it with Mr. Xie two days ago when I met Vice Governor Jidam. It seems that the bodyguards of Jidam's family had a bit of an unpleasant quarrel with Mr. Abacha because of the injury of Lieutenant Governor Jidam's son Baha, and Lieutenant Governor Jidam is very apologetic......"
When he mentioned this, Abacha was furious, and besides, the Jidam family really felt that they had done something wrong, so they should formally apologize, Huang Hebin said two innocuous words at this time, and Abacha would not appreciate it.
Cao Mo noticed that Zhou Han didn't know this detail, and it could be seen that Huang Hebin didn't care about Zhou Han, or maybe Zhou Han hadn't used any means against Huang Hebin?
"Speaking of Baha, what a friend, why don't I ask him over?" Lu Yan took out a box of cigars from the room, distributed them to Shen Ji, Xie Sipeng, Huang Hebin, and Abacha, and automatically skipped Yang Deshan and Cao Mo, put the cigar box on the vine table, and said with a big grin, "It was just a little misunderstanding before, don't take it to heart, and make a friend of Bahar, and you can all walk sideways in Draculamo in the future......"
Although Lu Yan now felt that Abacha was qualified to share his cigar, it was just that.
Lu Yan also saw two sides of Bahar last time when he accompanied Lu Jianchao to Dracula Moxingshi to ask for guilt, or did they go to Yan Zhicheng's casino twice at night to play, is it a friendship?
Huang Hebin should have told him what had happened to Draculamo recently, even if they didn't know that Abacha was being treated roughly, with Abacha's personal friendship with little Tubman, it would be impossible for Abacha to go to the Jidam family at this time.
When Lu Yan said these words, in the final analysis, he still didn't take Abacha seriously.
Abacha unhappily put his cigar on the vine table.
Shen Ji knew that it was not appropriate to ask Baha to come directly, so he picked up the cigar box, took out two cigars, and specially helped Yang Deshan and Cao Mo take the cigar scissors and cut the cigarette butts, handed them over and said with a smile:
"Lu Shao specially found someone to bring back the cigars from Cuba, you can also try it, it is stronger than ordinary smoke - Baja will forget it this time, I think the place here is small, and it can't be arranged. ”
Abacha still took care of Cao Mo and Shen Ji's face, and only found an excuse to leave after a barbecue dinner.
There was no activity at night, so they got together to play cards, but Lu Yan pulled Zhou Han, Song Yuqing, and Wang Wen to the table, so it would purely become an entertainment bureau, and directly use local cash as bargaining chips, and the win or loss of 30,000 or 40,000 naira a night was actually more than 100 US dollars.
Shen Ji, Lu Yan, Yang Deshan, and Huang Hebin lived in a wooden house, and Song Yuqing pulled Wang Wen to sleep in one room, freed up a room for Xie Sipeng and Zhang Min to live in, and then borrowed two rooms from the old chief Felician, plus three sets of mobile board houses, but arranged for everyone to live.
Cao Mo didn't sleep much, lit a plate of mosquito coils in the middle of the night, sat on the terrace to smoke, looked at the starry sky reflected in the lake, and thought about something.
"You can't sleep......"
As soon as the words arrived, Xinxiang also came, and Zhou Han pulled a rattan chair and sat next to Cao Mo.
Cao Mo wanted to beg this aunt to stay away from her.
When he walked out just now, he vaguely heard that Zhou Han should be talking to Lu Yan on the phone in the room, he was afraid that this woman was too scheming, so he hung up Lu Yan's phone and deliberately came to his side so that Lu Yan could just see it.
Cao Mo thought about extinguishing the cigarette and going back to the house to sleep, but when he turned around, he saw Zhou Han pick up the cigarette case on the rattan table and take out a cigarette to light for himself.
The moment the flames lit up, it illuminated Zhou Han's delicate and flawless face, like a white tan blooming in the night.
Cao Mo's heart was inexplicably moved, and he couldn't help but want to pretend not to know Zhou Han's intentions to attract Taihua to the Longta Industrial Park project, what benefits could he get from it, and at the same time not be implicated by Zhou Han?
To tell the truth, Cao Mo will not feel sorry for the Lu family's virtue in the end in the hands of Zhou Han, and he just pursues the principles of life and doesn't want to get involved.
However, if you think about it from another angle, how can you benefit from it while clearing up the relationship?
"Why are you staring at me, the rain is not enough for you to see?" Zhou Han asked in a soft voice, soft and disgusted, but there was another temptation and seduction.
Even though Cao Mo knew that Zhou Han had a bad intention, he couldn't help but feel impetuous, smiled awkwardly, and sat upright and looked at the lake in front of the house reflecting the starry sky.
Cao Mo's mind suddenly opened, and after a few idle words with Zhou Han, he couldn't wait to go back to the room, picked up the satellite phone and dialed Abacha:
"I thought about it, and we should do ...... industrial park project"
Didn't you say last night that our main focus was on the transmission grid project?" asked Abacha, confused.
Cao Mo listened to Abacha slap on a plump and elastic object, and he didn't know which wife he was signaling to leave first, so as not to hinder him from talking about things.
"If we want to build a modern cement building on the shores of Lake Conero, we will need this industrial park project. Cao Mo said.
"I'm even more confused when you say that, didn't you say a long time ago that we can't alarm the Stanin and Atessa families now, so as not to be targeted—you can repeatedly emphasize that we must not rashly expand cement production capacity at this time!" Abacha asked confusedly.
"There is an old Chinese saying that the plank road is repaired in the Ming Dynasty and the Chencang is secretly crossed," Cao Mo said to Abacha with his clear thinking, "Of course, we can't claim to build a new cement plant now, but think about it, when we can actually build it, how much time will it take for us to build a large and medium-sized modern cement plant on the shore of Lake Conero?"
"Ah, I see, you're really cunning - do you mean to say that on the surface, we are building an industrial park on the shore of Lake Conero, and in fact all this work is to prepare for the construction of a new cement plant?" Abacha exclaimed excitedly on the other end of the phone, "You Chinese are so cunning, so that when the momentum of Stanin and Artesa in Kanem is suppressed, we can directly build a new cement plant, which can save a lot of preparation time, and even we can build some office and storage buildings first......"
"That's the way it goes. Cao Mo said.
To build a large and medium-sized modern cement plant on the shore of Lake Conero, roads, freight terminals, power supply, communications, water supply and land leveling, etc., are all necessary supporting projects - these works are done unhurriedly first, and also according to the supporting engineering standards of the new cement plant, and when the new cement plant can be built, the construction period can be reduced by at least half a year to one year.
Although the cement storm in Kanem will eventually pass in a year, as an energy-intensive industry, Cao Mo is still profitable to build large and medium-sized cement on the shore of Lake Conero, backed by cheap hydropower resources in the upper reaches of the Lujiao River.
In particular, the price of electricity sold by the hydropower station to the new power grid company has been reduced to eight cents per kilowatt-hour, and Cao Mo wants to have more profit margins by using the electricity generated by the ladder hydropower station for his own use as much as possible, rather than selling it all cheaply to the new power grid company.
It is also beneficial for them to attract Taihua to participate in the investment of the industrial park project.
The agreement signed before, which allows them to build a separate transmission grid in the western part of Lonta, actually includes the eastern shore of Lake Conero.
It is difficult to make a profit on the industrial park project, but this has nothing to do with Cao Mo, except for the new cement plant they built, as long as Taihua can introduce an additional company, he can sell an extra share of electricity, why do you have to refuse Zhou Han to set up a bureau for Taihua?
The question is how to get rid of Zhou Han, and the incident will not involve him in the future?
