Chapter 36: Chowder

Whether it was the city government or the bank, there was no intention of providing convenience for Gu Shuhan and Gu's factory from the beginning, and it was Bai Yu who helped her behind her back and silently solved the troubles she encountered.

Knowing this, Gu Shuhan became more and more confused. Bai Yu, why did you go to such a great length?

As a person sent by the city government to cooperate with her, Bai Yu should stand in the perspective of the city government of city B, consider the maximization of the government's interests, and wait for her to compromise and ask for help, but has no obligation or need to do this for her. But Bai Yu not only did it, but also had no intention of selling her favor at all.

If Gu Shuhan is a person who doesn't know the details of City B, I'm afraid he will really take Bai Yu's words seriously, just because the government didn't convey the meaning to the major banks, and his gratitude to him would be greatly reduced, but Gu Shuhan is obviously not. She knew that behind Bai Yu's understatement, there was a lot of hardship and rush.

Therefore, when encountering such a gift that is completely unprofitable, even Gu Shuhan cannot be indifferent.

At this moment, Gu Shuhan looked at Bai Yu's clear and tired eyes, and there was an indescribable taste in his heart. A trace of warmth that even she herself could not perceive quietly rose from her heart.

She only needed to think about it a little to understand that most of this matter was done by Bai Yu in his personal name. As the son of the Bai family, and with several industries in his hands, Bai Yu should have made a lot of money over the years, of course, most of this money should have been reinvested by Bai Yu in new project investment to promote development, and the liquidity in his personal account must have been transferred out by him this time and handed over to Gu Shuhan.

This amount of money may be huge for ordinary people, but as the start-up capital for this project, it is still insufficient, and the rest must be obtained by Bai Yu from a loan in the bank. Unlike Gu Shuhan, a businessman who has risen too fast and has a shallow foundation, Bai Yu, who has a close relationship with the government, undoubtedly has an advantage in terms of loan amount that Gu Shuhan does not have.

Of course, when he did this, in fact, the city government of B did not suffer a loss. In this transaction, the city government did not pay too much cost, only a little personal connection, and even the two orders were also contacted by Bai Yu, so it can be said that the government's resources have not been wasted. No matter how much share of this deal can get, it will be a sure win for City B. At most, the city government has to allocate a part of the security force to ensure that the people in the Gu factory are not disturbed by people with different intentions in the process of reprocessing.

However, for Gu Shuhan, the meaning of this qiē is completely different.

The cost of technology, research, materials, machinery and even labor costs are unimaginable to others. Of course, if the two trades can be completed, the Gu's factory will be able to make the largest profit from it. Compared with the Diaoyutai of City B, Gu Shuhan's risk is undoubtedly much greater.

In the process, Gu Shuhan encountered an unprecedented and unexpected problem, just when she was about to carry this storm alone and make a choice, someone stood in front of her, smiling and telling her that the problem had been solved, and she didn't need to worry about it anymore. For Gu Shuhan, this is the first time.

"Bai Shao, you ......" Gu Shuhan took a deep breath, but he didn't know whether to accept Bai Yu's gift. She and Bai Yu are not related, if they accept such a big gift from the other party like this, it will be a little inappropriate after all. But from the perspective of a businessman, it is naturally best to be able to solve the current problem without ceding profits, and she should not push the opportunity to get it. Moreover, Bai Yu had already made a lot of efforts for this matter, and it was not a matter to directly reject him, making what he had done useless.

As if seeing through what she was thinking, and knowing that what she was doing could not hide from the smart woman in front of her, Bai Yu said: "We said that we would achieve our ambitions together and make my father impress us." You shouldn't, and can't be, stuck in this place. ”

"I am your partner, we have worked with each other for so long, and we will continue to maintain a closer cooperative relationship in the future, you should learn to trust me more, Shu Han."

Gu Shuhan's eyes moved slightly, and Bai Yu's tone became softer and softer, as if he was following a good path.

"What I have done is not for you, but for myself, for the sake of the longer good. The bigger Gu's factory can be, the more I can get a cut from trade in the future. At the moment, it seems that I am sacrificing some interests, but in the long run, I am not at a loss. So, you don't have to have any psychological burden. ”

His words are beautiful and sincere, and the reasons listed seem to be reasonable, but Gu Shuhan knows that this time, he still gets the greatest benefit. However, in the face of such a Bai Yu, it is difficult for her to be like Jia Cunyi, just using the word "confession" to send away, in order to report later.

She understood what Bai Yu was doing this for.

But she also knew that she probably wouldn't be able to give Bai Yu what he wanted.

However, looking at Bai Yu's eyes as dark as midnight, Gu Shuhan couldn't say anything anymore.

In the end, she had to turn her face a little hastily: "Since Bai Shao has such high expectations for my Gu Factory, I will not let Bai Shao down." ”

In the initial meeting and cooperation, Gu Shuhan actually didn't have much affection for Bai Yu. Even some of his ways of doing things made her quite unhappy. However, as the contact increased, Bai Yu showed amazing talents and gradually proved his ability. Bai Yu's management ability and communication skills are beyond her reach, and his character is also trustworthy.

Compared with the unreserved support that Bai Yu gave her, the trust she gave to Bai Yu seemed to be really less.

She has always been worried that Bai Yu will bring personal feelings into her work, which will affect the efficiency of her work, but now it seems that she has really been affected, so she has always had some prejudice against Bai Yu. It's her. It's just that her love is buried too deeply, and even she herself is not aware of it.

"As a partner, I ...... Will try to trust you a little more. ”

Hearing these two words, Bai Yu smiled: "You don't need to have psychological pressure on this, I fully believe in your ability." It's just ......" He changed his words, and his voice was slightly lower than usual: "I often think that it would be nice if Shu Han could call me by my name instead of calling me Bai Shao unfamiliarly." ”

After touching and avoiding it fiercely, now, he can be regarded as having initially figured out the trick of getting along with Gu Shuhan. Gu Shuhan eats soft rather than hard, and the most important thing is her family, which is her career. For Gu Shuhan, career is equivalent to her other child. If these two points can be captured, then the distance between him and Gu Shuhan can be narrowed.

Although Gu Shuhan still has a strong fortress in his heart, as long as there is a way to enter this fortress, the efforts he has made now are not in vain.

Although Gu Shuhan is strong and has more work ability than most men, she is not immune to rain or shine.

From this aspect, Bai Yu did not lie to Gu Shuhan. What he wants is not immediate benefits. If you can tie up the person in front of you, you will get a priceless treasure. In the future, how much profit do you want to get? Of course, Bai Yu didn't want Gu Shuhan to have only interests between him, which also lost his original intention. Therefore, these so-called benefits are just an incidental product of Gu Shuhan.

Bai Yu's actions naturally can't be hidden from Premier Bai and Qin Lao.

In the past few days, Bai Yu has been busy, and Premier Bai and Qin Lao have also seen it, although they did not stop it, it does not mean that they do not care. With their authority, they only need to check in the bank to know what Bai Yu has done.

"This kid of yours, before he got married, he began to turn his elbow out!" Qin Lao spat out the smoke ring and joked with a smile: "You really don't care? ”

"He's willing to do it himself, and he's able to do it beautifully, what do I care! Take advantage of the present time, let him experience more. "Prime Minister Bai obviously doesn't take this seriously, as long as he doesn't travel on the big picture, he won't interfere too much in the development of the children. Among the children, Premier Bai values Bai Yu the most, and his expectations for him are naturally the highest.

"You're at ease." Qin Lao smiled, as if he remembered something, and said, "I heard that recently, your youngest son is coming to work in the government?" ”

Bai Ji, the second son of the Bai family, was three years old, and after graduation, he bought a shop to sell some imported goods. I used to do a good job, but for some reason, I suddenly didn't want to do it anymore recently, and I went to Prime Minister Kashiwa and told him that I wanted to enter politics.

Prime Minister Bai has always been very open-minded in the choice of his children's careers and will not interfere too much.

At the beginning, Bai Yu was in business on the front foot, and Bai Ji was also in business on the back foot, Premier Bai understood that his second son had some meaning of being different from the eldest son, but he saw that Bai Ji had done a good business, and he was indeed the material for this business, and he only knew about Bai Ji's careful thoughts. After all, there is a motivation to make progress. In Prime Minister Bai's view, there is nothing wrong with promoting healthy competition between the two sons.

It's just that he didn't expect that Bai Ji's heart of comparison would be so heavy. Seeing that Bai Yu's oil business was booming, he soon established a cooperative relationship with Gu's factory, and successively obtained large orders from the United Kingdom and the United States. Seeing that his brother was so good, Bai Ji couldn't stand still. He knew that it was difficult to surpass Bai Yu in business, and Bai Yu's current business was mostly related to the government, not just a simple private business, so he started to abandon business and enter politics. So, there is what Qin Lao said today.

When Premier Bai heard this, the smile on his face faded a lot: "He has never done any work in the government, and since he insists on coming in, he has to start from the bottom." If he has talent, I will naturally use him to promote him; If he is useless, I will not promote him on the face of him as my son. He shook his head: "This kid's heart to win and lose is too strong. When he chose to go into business, I told him that any decision must be made after careful consideration, and once he chooses this path, he should not regret it. At that time, although he secretly competed with Ah Yu, he still had a look. Now, his heart is completely immersed in impetuousness. ”

"Your second boy is not as stable as Ah Yu, and it may not be a good thing to suffer some setbacks now. You are so busy that you often can't go home on weekdays, so take this opportunity to take your second child with you to teach and teach. Qin Lao talked about cigarette sticks, and vaguely mentioned: "I see that the few in your family, except for the younger siblings, are naturally good, but the thoughts of the aunts and wives below are not very correct." ”

Premier Bai frowned: "No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, I have always let them learn from Junmei." "Junmei is his wife, Mrs. Bai, and the mother of Bai Yu and Bai Shu.

He naturally knew that his aunts and wives were not as knowledgeable as his wives, and although he liked their beauty, he would not be confused about the upbringing of his children.

"When you let your siblings teach them, they are already governors. They all know that those aunts and wives are their mothers, how can they listen to the discipline of their younger siblings? Brother, you, in the backyard, are still a little careless. ”

"Sounds like big brother is very experienced?" Premier Bai said this, but his brows were already wrinkled, obviously listening to Qin Lao's words.

"I didn't know about these things, but later, your sister-in-law sued me." Qin Lao patted Prime Minister Bai on the shoulder: "We men, we always feel that the back house is a woman's business, we just need to take care of the front, but we don't know that the back house is the source of family trouble." How many famous families have been ruined by infighting, even we have to be cautious. ”

"What the eldest brother said makes sense, I will pay attention. After I go back, I will warn the Qin family, the Li family, and the Zhao family. It is expected that the three of them will not dare to move this kind of thought. When he said this, Prime Minister Bai's expression was quite stern.

Obviously, he also knows what kind of temperament the three aunts in his family are.

In the past, even if they had any petty fights and jealousy, as long as they were not too excessive, he would not ask. But when it comes to the child's upbringing, there is no room for neglect.

In this way, Bai Ji entered the city government of B as a small assistant.

In this regard, Bai Yu did not react much. Aunt Qin has always been very wary of her descendants. Since childhood, Bai Yu and Bai Ji, the only two men in the Bai family, have not been close, and later Bai Yu went abroad to study early, and the relationship was even more unfamiliar. If you want to talk about brotherhood, there is, but it is quite indifferent.

In addition, Bai Ji has bullied Bai Yu's sister Bai Shu several times, and Bai Yu really doesn't have a good impression of Bai Ji.

Compared with Bai Ji, Bai Yu prefers to focus on his career.

Since the oil company has Gu Shuhan as a staff officer and planner, the frequency of digging crude oil is much higher than before. The crude oil is fractionated and processed into various products, which brings Bai Yu a lot of money.

Among them, the orders received by the company are from major domestic forces, as well as from Europe and the United States.

Since Bai Yu has the ability to help Gu Shuhan's factory catch up with the British and American lines, his own factory naturally has a way to do it.

Britain needed a lot of oil, and that demand was as desperate as their thirst for weapons.

Most of the petrol produced by oil processing plants is shipped to the United Kingdom. These trade transactions have brought a lot of income to the company.

Bai Yu's pockets quickly bulged, and Gu Shuhan, as a shareholder of the company, also received a lot of dividends.

Her stake in the oil company is indeed not high, but her stake in the oil processing plant is quite a lot, after all, the technology of refining crude oil is contributed by her, and Bai Yu alone cannot lose her shares.

After Gu Shuhan inspected the production line of the weapons factory today, Gu Shuhan found that she had an extra amount of money in her account. She was stunned, and then she thought that today is the day of dividends again.

Looking at the number, Gu Shuhan raised her eyebrows, she knew that the oil processing plant had to do business with the British and the big domestic tycoons, but she didn't expect that this business would do so well. As soon as the dividends were paid here, she immediately added a large amount of money to her account.

Although it feels good to fight for the cause, it seems good to wait for someone to share dividends, at least for now, Gu Shuhan is in a great mood. Of course, her good mood is not only because she got a sum of money, but also because the oil processing plant has her part of the efforts in it. Now that the oil processing plant has achieved such results, she is honored.

Now, many of Gu's factories are progressing smoothly.

Gu's Arms Factory was originally short of funds, and instead of sending all the orders to its counterparts in City B in one go, it used limited funds to place three orders first. Today, the three factories that received the first orders have already delivered finished products to the weapons factories. After inspecting the goods, the Gu's Arms Factory paid off the balance and began to put these weapons into secondary production.

After obtaining a loan from Bai Yu, several other factories with a good reputation also received orders from Gu's Iron and Steel Plant one after another, and they were all proceeding in an orderly manner.

At the same time, the European war is also becoming more and more intense, and the war for a long time has made several warring countries red-eyed.

It is not an easy task to fight a protracted war in the face of multi-front combat. The German team illustrates this with their own experience.

Originally, before the United States made a statement, the British side had already occupied a certain advantage, and gradually took the rhythm into its own hands. However, the Germans were very tenacious, and for a while, the British could not completely defeat them.

Not long ago, the United States finally officially joined the Entente and began to fight against Germany together with Britain and other countries. The accession of the United States has made it more and more difficult for Germany to cope.

Of course, if the United States wants to preserve its strength as much as possible, it is naturally impossible to mobilize almost all its troops like the rest of Europe, and it is also for this reason that the defeat of Germany has been delayed to a certain extent.

Bai Yu was not optimistic about the Allies from the beginning, so when choosing traders, he chose the United Kingdom and the United States.

Gu Shuhan, on the other hand, knew that it was not enough to just show his support for the Entente.

In the previous life, the Chinese also chose the camp of the Entente and participated in the construction of the rear of the Entente countries, but because they did not directly intervene in the frontal battlefield and were weak, they were not regarded as their own people by the Entente countries. That is why there were provisions that were later humiliating at the Paris Peace Conference.

Now, there is still a little more than a year before the end of the war, and this year, they have to grasp it well.
