After curing Minister Cao's illness, Chen Ran did not stay in Zhongdu for long, and returned to the capital with He Zhenhua in the afternoon of the next day.
He Zhenhua arrived in Zhongdu with his classmate Chen Zhongshu, and along with them there was Yang Shijie who was called by Chen Ran, and Chen Ran wrote a check for 90 million and 5 million to Chen Zhongshu, which was regarded as taking over Longquan Villa.
Ninety million is the price of Longquan Villa, but five million is the money of several properties in the urban area, originally He Zhenhua only asked him to pay 90 million, and those properties should all be given to Chen Ran, but Chen then insisted on adding another five million.
The price of Longquan Villa let him take a big advantage, and then give away a few properties for nothing, how can it be said, although Longquan Villa let out more than such a little money, but the friendship price is the friendship price, and the gift is send.
Chen Ran also has his own principles.
The owner of Longquan Villa, Chen Zhongshu, can have his current achievements are all the credit of He Zhenhua, his family conditions when he was in school were not as good as Wang Liang's, but obviously, he and Wang Liang were lucky, and they met classmates like He Zhenhua and Chen Ran.
Dispose of domestic assets and go abroad, Chen Zhongshu didn't want to stay in China, but He Zhenhua's project abroad needed a long-term stationed and trustworthy person in charge, so Chen Zhongshu was selected to go over to the top without a suitable candidate.
It is said that after knowing that Chen Zhongshu had the intention of changing hands to Longquan Villa, several bosses contacted Chen Zhongshu, and the lowest bid was hundreds of millions.
It was not until this time that Chen Ran knew the status of Longquan Villa in Tianzhong City and the province, Longquan Villa also has horse farms, hunting grounds, and dog fighting arenas in addition to accommodation and meals in the villa, which are the main ones, and there are also some surrounding industries attached to it, such as mountains and forests, and mineral water.
It can be seen that He Zhenhua's old classmate is a very thoughtful and business-minded person.
The horse farm and hunting ground of Longquan Villa are also famous in the province, but they are still a little worse than the dog fighting ground of the villa.
Because the dog fighting arena of Longquan Villa is the largest and most famous one in the province, although there are dog fighting arenas in other places, but they are not large-scale, and the dog fighting arena of Longquan Villa has formed a scale very early, if the dog fighting arena of Longquan Villa is the real meaning of the dog fighting arena, then the dog fighting arena in other places is like fighting guerrilla, occasionally organizing organizations, this shot and that shooting.
It was also at this time that Chen Ran knew that the predecessor of Longquan Villa was actually a dog fighting ring, and it was very famous in the province and nearby provinces and regions at that time, but later it was strictly managed in this area, and it was severely cracked down and could only be transferred from the bright side to the underground, and then it was acquired by He Zhenhua and Chen Zhongshu together, and then built such a comprehensive villa.
After all these years of operation, not only the sons and daughters in the province often come here, but also many young people from other regions and even the capital come to play.
Now that Chen Zhongshu wants to sell the villa, there are naturally more interested people, especially those young people, if He Zhenhua was not anxious to let Chen Zhongshu quickly dispose of the villa, it would not be Chen Ran's turn.
Based on the relationship between He Zhenhua and Chen Ran, it was naturally the lowest price to be transferred to Chen Ran.
After Chen Ran learned about the situation, he wanted to increase the price of Chen Zhongshu, but was stopped by He Zhenhua, saying that he had already said that it would be nothing, and he would compensate for it in the future.
did not increase the price of Longquan Villa, but Chen Ran insisted on giving Chen Zhongshu another 5 million for the properties in the urban area.
He Zhenhua is the middleman, Chen Ran gave the money, which means that the villa belongs to Chen Ran, and he didn't even receive the receipt, just wait for Chen Zhongshu and Yang Shijie to return to Tianzhong to hand over.
Then Chen Ran privately told Yang Shijie about the security company, and finally called Wang Wentao over to introduce them to each other, but except for Wang Wentao who transferred 50 million to the company's account after registering the company, Chen Ran didn't interfere.
During his trip to Zhongdu, in addition to treating Minister Cao's illness and setting up a security company, Chen Ran also had a gain, that is, he invited Cao Huiyao to manage the jewelry company for him, and it was at this time that Chen Ran knew that Cao Huiyao not only had an MBA from a prestigious university, but also had experience in managing a company.
Speaking of which, I have to talk about Chen Ran's current relationship with the Cao family.
That day, Minister Cao was sent back to Cao's house, and he had dinner directly at Cao's house in the evening, and there was such a thing, and when he was eating, he naturally felt a lot of emotion between the conversations, maybe it was touching the scene, Mrs. Cao unconsciously talked about Cao Huiyao's younger brother, speaking of this, Minister Cao seemed a little silent, but after Mrs. Cao finished speaking, she suddenly mentioned to Mrs. Cao, how about we accept Chen Ran as a godson?
Chen Ran was taken aback when he heard it, although he had a good relationship with the Cao family, he never thought of recognizing his relatives, but in the end he agreed.
First of all, his current relationship with the Cao family is not much different from that of the family, and secondly, looking at Minister Cao and Mrs. Cao, especially Mrs. Cao's nervous and expectant eyes looking at him, he really can't say anything to refuse, and then it is not a big deal for him to recognize a godfather, anyway, he has such a good relationship with the Cao family, whether it is Minister Cao or Mrs. Cao, he has always treated him as a family member.
Seeing Chen Ran agree, Mrs. Cao was so happy that she took a big red envelope to Chen Ran on the spot, which also let Chen Ran know that the matter of recognizing relatives was obviously discussed between Minister Cao and Mrs. Cao.
In the past, although Chen Ran and the Cao family had a good relationship, Chen Ran and the Cao family had no relationship after all, seriously speaking, the relationship between Chen Ran and the Cao family was always a bit unjustifiable, and now that he recognized his relatives, the relationship was naturally different, not to mention Minister Cao, only that Mrs. Cao was closer to Chen Ran than to her own daughter, not to mention that Cao Huiyao was jealous, but Ruoruo was not satisfied, so that she was unwilling to change her name to call her uncle.
Before recognizing his relatives, there were some things that were difficult to say, but after recognizing his relatives, Minister Cao and Mrs. Cao naturally cared about Chen Ran's future and private life, although Chen Ran didn't say much, he also mentioned his plan to acquire a jewelry company in the near future.
What he didn't expect was that Mrs. Cao knew the jewelry industry very well, whether it was the questions asked or the various links and processes of the jewelry company she talked about, she was much more professional than him, a half-way monk.
Chen Ran asked in surprise, only then did he know that Mrs. Cao's mother's family was originally doing this, and it was still a time-honored brand in Yangzhou.
In the early years, Mrs. Cao's father, that is, Cao Huiyao's grandfather, was still alive, Mrs. Cao had been working as an assistant manager in a jewelry company, and later her father died, and her brother and uncle divided the family property, so she retired from the company and became a full-time wife at home.
Chen Ran obviously never expected Mrs. Cao to have such a background and experience, which was undoubtedly a surprise for him.
Although he also knows about the jewelry industry, he only understands the surface, and now that he has such an insider, it will naturally allow him to know more about it.
Next, Chen Ran naturally asked a lot of processes and questions in this regard, in fact, he didn't need to ask for advice at all, Mrs. Cao, who had just recognized his godson, was obviously more enthusiastic than him, who was himself to his jewelry company.
From Mrs. Cao's understanding, Chen Ran also has a deeper understanding of this industry, why he wants to set up a jewelry company, the main reason is obviously the raw materials, he has special abilities, so he naturally does not have to worry about the source of goods.
Before that, he had always thought that he would not have to worry about the jewelry company's exhibition if he had a supply of goods, but after listening to Mrs. Cao's lecture on the doorway of the jewelry industry, he realized that his idea was a bit simple.
A large jewelry company needs so many supplies, can he alone meet the needs of the whole company?
Secondly, for jewelry companies, the supply of goods is indispensable, which is indeed true, but having a supply does not mean that the company can become bigger.
If it's just a small company, it's fine, but if you want to make it bigger, there are obviously more aspects involved.
For example, the jewelry industry is actually a very regional industry.
Jewelry is also regarded as a cultural industry in a certain way, and the local people in each place have an unconscious sense of protection for the local cultural industry.
This is one of them, followed by the market problem, now is not the jewelry industry has just risen in the era, thousands of jewelry companies across the country have long been carved up the market, want to step into the new market exhibition is not to open a few stores in this market can do, and even many times you can't open the store.
This is not appalling, it is better in the first-tier cities, and it is basically the case in the second-tier cities below, which is why most of the domestic jewelry companies are limited to one area to exhibit, not that they do not want to go out, but the market has been carved up, and then you can only rely on a strong network to enter.
How many jewelry companies can do it nationwide? And most of these were made when the market was blank in the early days.
Regionality is a problem, and then there is capital, to put it bluntly, it is the faction in the industry, there are Beijing and Tianjin jewelers, sea jewelers, Suzhou and Hangzhou jewelers, Nanyang jewelers, Yunnan jewelers, these five jewelers have carved up the capital, supply, processing, and market of the entire jewelry industry.
Capital controls the source of goods, the source of goods controls the processing, and the processing controls the market, which is equal to four levels, if the jewelry company is just doing the market, it is undoubtedly difficult to make it bigger.
These are all issues involved in running a jewelry company, and Chen Ran used to understand only how to open a jewelry store instead of a jewelry company.
Although it sounds difficult, Chen Ran's idea of acquiring a jewelry company has not wavered at all, he can't guarantee whether the jewelry company can become bigger, and he obviously can guarantee that it may not make money, and how to say that he is also "trading without capital".
In the end, Mrs. Cao obviously wanted to see if there was anything that could help Chen Ran, so she asked Chen Ran if he had any difficulties now, at present, Chen Ran had no difficulties, and if there was anything, it was the lack of people who could manage their finances for themselves in the company.
The management of the company can be recruited from outside, but there must be someone you trust to help you watch the company.
Chen Ran told him about his situation, and at first Mrs. Cao didn't have any suitable candidates, but at this time, Minister Cao, who had not spoken, suddenly asked Cao Huiyao and said that she didn't want to work on the radio?
Cao Huiyao didn't expect that there was something about herself, and she suddenly opened her mouth in surprise, but before she could say anything, she was "betrayed" by Mrs. Cao, who had just recognized her godson and only had her godson in her heart.
Only then did Chen Ran know that Cao Huiyao not only had an MBA from a prestigious university, but also worked as a regional general manager in China in a foreign company.
For Chen Ran, it would naturally be best if Cao Huiyao could come to help her, but fortunately, although Cao Huiyao seemed a little hesitant at first because of Ruoruo, but under his invitation and Mrs. Cao's persuasion, she finally agreed, of course, although she agreed, it was obviously impossible to follow him immediately.
After agreeing with Cao Huiyao, Chen Ran returned to the capital with He Zhenhua in the afternoon of the next day.
