Chapter 123: Night Talk (Asking for Recommendations, Asking for Collections)
In the evening, Shi Mo's grandparents came back, and they didn't seem to know about Shi Mo's fight at school, so they didn't mention it at all, but talked about Wu Haibo's search for them.
The big stone in Shi Mo's heart was finally put down, and he secretly shouted in his heart, I don't know if it's a good thing for me to fight, let's talk about it later when I know.
Wu Haibo came to find Shi Mo's grandparents, and the purpose was to borrow money. He said that he wanted to contract a rural circuit rectification project, and he needed to invest 500,000 yuan, and he didn't have enough money, so he wanted to borrow some from two old people.
Shi Mo's family is the richest man in the whole town, Shi Mo's grandparents have been raising fish for so many years, and they do have a lot of money, not to mention that every time Shi Youfu comes back, he always has to give some money to his parents. The two elders don't usually use much money, and they have been accumulating, and the money in this passbook has gradually increased.
Shi Mo's grandparents are discussing, whether to borrow or not?
Wu Haibo came to his house to make trouble, it was five years ago, he worked as a coolie in his home for free for three years, and his performance was still recognized by the two old men.
"I said old man, let's lend him 200,000 yuan. This kid has changed a lot in the past few years, and he is also reliable in doing things, we will help him, maybe he will be able to turn things around in the future. Chen Jinmei said thoughtfully.
"He wants to borrow 400,000 yuan, what does it matter if we borrow 200,000? If we all borrow him, in case he turns yellow, our money will be no different from a waste. Shi Zhangming said worriedly.
"If we want to borrow, we will borrow 200,000 yuan, and let him think of some other ways by himself, in case it is yellow, we will only lose so much. They all borrowed him, and he couldn't repay them later. Chen Jinmei insisted on her own idea and said.
"If we lend him 200,000 yuan, he won't be able to do the project, so it's better not to borrow it. You also know that he is afraid that he will not be able to borrow money from others, and I can't pay attention to whether he can help me or not. Shi Zhangming took a puff of dry tobacco and Zou Mei said.
"In that case, you and Youfu make a phone call, ask his opinion, and see what he has to say." Chen Jinmei herself couldn't pay attention to it, and said suggestively.
"Okay, then I'll call our son and ask for his opinion." Shi Zhangming stood up and nodded.
"Grandpa, you wait first, you don't have to make this call." Shi Mo walked in from outside the room and spoke directly.
"If you don't fight, you can't do it, your grandmother and I can't pay attention to this matter." Shi Zhangming looked at Shi Mo and shook his head and said.
"My father is rich now, and he is a villager in the township, so he should have no opinion on borrowing hundreds of thousands, but I think it's better for your second elder not to borrow money from him." Shi Mo sat down on a chair in the room and said seriously.
"Xiaomo, what do you think, tell your grandparents quickly." Chen Jinmei saw her grandson coming in, and hurriedly asked.
"Grandpa, grandma, I want to ask you, Wu Haibo has been in our family for three years, how has he performed in the past few years, and how is his work ability?" Shi Mo didn't say what he thought right away, but said inquiringly.
"This kid, at first, he was a little uncomfortable, but then he seemed to accept it slowly, and he did things with a clear eye, and he really had nothing to say. I also have a lot of respect for our two old people, otherwise your grandfather and I wouldn't have been worried about borrowing money or not for him. Grandma Shi Mo praised from the bottom of her heart.
"Then you don't have to worry about whether to borrow money from him, I have a useful person for me, if he comes to you to borrow money again, just ask him to come to me." Shi Mo said thoughtfully.
"Are you useful? You kid is talking nonsense, and you're going to let him give you three years of free labor? Not to mention that the contract has expired, even if it has not expired, we can't do that, and if this happens, the villagers don't know how much gossip they have to say. Shi Zhangming glared at Shi Mo fiercely and reprimanded.
"Grandpa, you misunderstood me, I didn't let him do coolies for me for free, but I was going to let him work in my company, as for the salary, it must be more profitable than him contracting circuit rectification, which can be regarded as a compensation for his three years of free labor." Shi Mo explained.
For the fact that he wants to build his hometown, Shi Mo doesn't want to hide it from his family, and he can't hide this kind of thing. As long as the project starts, these ten miles and eight towns will know in an instant, and then say a lot of things, they have to communicate with the villagers, and they must get the support of the villagers, so that the future work can be carried out.
Today, taking this opportunity, Shi Mo is ready to communicate his thoughts with his grandparents, there are many things, and Shi Mo also has to rely on the prestige of his grandfather and grandmother in the village to come forward to persuade him.
"You asked Wu Haibo to go to work in your company? You little bunny, you're still in school, where did you come from? Shi Zhangming said with a smile.
"Grandpa, don't you underestimate people, your grandson and I are going to register a tourism development company to build our hometown, all kinds of talents are being gathered, and we will be ready to break ground in a few days." Shi Mo said with a chuckle.
"Building a hometown? Just the little pocket money your mother gave you? This kind of thing, even your father doesn't dare to say it now, you little kid still dare to speak up. Grandpa Shi Mo said with a smile.
"Grandpa, let me ask you, if I have the capacity to build our hometown, do you support it?" Shi Mo did not refute his grandfather's words, but said rhetorically.
"If my grandson has this ability, grandpa will definitely support it, even if I want to smash the pot and sell iron, I will support you. But Xiaomo, your task now is to study hard, and when you have a future interest, it is not too late to give back to your hometown and society. Grandpa Shi Mo sucked the smoke pot in his hand and said to Shi Mo.
"Grandpa, Liu Luoguo became the prime minister at the age of eight, and I am seventeen years old this year, why can't I make a big difference? As the saying goes, if you are ambitious, you are not old, so you conclude that our Lao Shi family will not produce a genius? Shi Mo retorted disapprovingly.
"Hehe, yes, ambition is not old, I believe that my Xiaomo is a genius. But Xiaomo, you should still listen to your grandfather now, focus on studying, and when you graduate from college, you will come back to build our hometown, and grandma will pay to support you. Grandma Shi Mo said happily on the side.
"Thank you grandma. But grandpa, grandma, let me tell you the truth, Xiaolian and I are currently preparing to invest 400 million yuan to build a rural tourism development project, and will continue to add funds in the later stage, vowing to build our hometown into a paradise and civilization in the world. Shi Mo no longer circled with his grandparents, and said directly.
"What? How much? Four hundred million? Where did you get all this money? Shi Zhangming looked at Shi Mo dumbfounded, and asked in a loud voice in disbelief.
Although Chen Jinmei didn't know what the concept of 400 million was, seeing her wife so shocked, she guessed that it must be a lot of money, and her eyes couldn't help but stare at Shi Mo.
