1243. in the first place

"Can you get in touch with those villagers?"

Li Yifan turned his head to look at Tian Qing and asked, Tian Qing nodded, his expression was a little smug.

"Of course."

"Okay, tomorrow you can ask me to make all the important troubles with them, and I will meet them."

"Okay, no problem."

Tian Qing glanced at Li Yifan with a little surprise, this kid is a little bold, not the kind of guy who only knows how to escape.

At noon the next day, at the Hilton Hotel in the provincial capital, Li Yifan sat in a large box, which was large enough to accommodate twenty or thirty people for dinner.

At noon, the door of the box was pushed open from the outside, and then under the leadership of Tian Qing, more than a dozen people walked in one after another.

These people are all not tall, they all have the characteristics of peasants, their faces are dark, and the ravines are horizontal, but the dress makes Li Yifan a little unexpected.

It's not the kind of pure peasant dress as imagined, all of them are dressed in a decent way, some in suits and leather shoes, some in jackets and trousers, and they all look a little bit stylish, it seems that they should all be better characters in the village.

But after thinking about it again, it's not surprising, after all, these are the overlords of those villages, and according to Tian Qing, these people have secretly run small mines by themselves before, and they should not be short of money, so they are not as shabby as they imagined.

When the group came in, they were clearly divided into two groups, one group was led by a stout man in his thirties, walking on Tian Qing's left hand side.

The other group was led by an old man in his fifties, walking on Tian Qing's right hand.

Both groups did not squint. They don't communicate with each other. There are even times when you exchange glances. It seems that what Tian Qing said is true, the two groups have a deep hatred.

"Haha, Brother Lao Tian, Village Chief Lao Dao, this is Mr. Li, who I mentioned to you and came from the capital to represent the Northwest Mining Company of Canada."

Li Yifan had already gotten up and came to the front of this group, and Tian Qing hurriedly brought the two leading people to him. Introduce them to each other.

"Hello, Mr. Li, you are a nobleman! It's really young and promising! ”

The old knife was the old man in his fifties, with gray hair, a face full of furrows, dark skin, a pair of big hands covered with calluses, and the hands holding Li Yifan shook vigorously, which was very powerful.

Li Yifan laughed: "Where, where." Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Lao Dao Village Chief, at such an old age, his health is still so good, he can be regarded as old and strong! ”

Seeing that the old knife was so close to Li Yifan, and the middle-aged strong man on the side, Lao Tian had contempt on his face: "Hmph! Sycophants! ”

Although the voice is small, it can be heard by a few people nearby, and the old knife doesn't look old, but he has a fiery temper.

"The surname is Tian, what do you say?"

The head of the village didn't give in at all, and rolled his eyes: "Who is licking the asshole of the Han people, I'm just talking about that?" ”

As soon as he said this, not only did the old knife change his face, but even Tian Qing and Li Yifan also changed their faces, and there were a group of people in this house, Tian Qing and Li Yifan were both Han.

What does this guy mean by talking like that? Do you still want to engage in racial discrimination?

The old knife was about to attack on the spot, and the men behind him also looked at each other angrily, and it seemed that they were going to do it when the old village chief gave an order.

The old knife was about to have a seizure, but he felt that the little white-faced hand that he was holding in his hand suddenly turned into a pair of steel tongs, firmly holding his hand and preventing him from attacking.

This made him very surprised, originally looking at this little white face from the capital, he was polite, when he just held his hand, his hands were thin and white, soft and weak, he is a mountain man, he has always admired strength, so he didn't put Li Yifan in his eyes at all.

But at this time, people stretched out their hands and shook it, and a huge force struck, which made him unable to move, and suddenly he had to look at this young man with admiration.

Sure enough, people cannot be disguised, and the sea water cannot be measured.

"Haha, this Brother Tian, today is my treat, I don't know if I can give face, besides, in such a place, if there is a fight, it will be really a big scene, don't you say?"

Li Yifan said with a smile to this Lao Tian, this Lao Tian's name is Tian Zhuang, he is a Yi man, and he is also the new generation of patriarchs of these Yi villages behind him.

As his name suggests, he is thick and strong, and he seems to be very unfriendly to his group, which makes him a little unhappy.

But considering that he came to do business today, he didn't have a seizure on the spot.

He played such a round, this Tian Zhuang was also a little stunned, I didn't expect this guy to have such a good cultivation, but since people are not angry, it is inconvenient for him to have a seizure.

So he snorted and said no more.

Li Yifan laughed, and then beckoned everyone to sit down, a large round table, the two groups of people sat at both ends clearly, and then they all looked at each other angrily, and the whole banquet was full of gunpowder.

Tian Qing was a little worried, for fear that these two groups of people would fight on the spot if they didn't agree on a word, and then look at Li Yifan, but he was light and light, not flustered, and poured tea for Lao Dao and Tian Zhuang who were sitting on both sides of him, and from time to time shook out a few jokes to make fun of them.

The old knife is an old fox, he has done a good job in terms of human sophistication, and he can cater to Li Yifan's two sentences, but that Tian Zhuang, this aspect is much worse, although his attitude has eased somewhat, but he has always maintained a serious attitude, a face is already black, and at this time it looks even more black-headed and black-faced, and I don't know what I'm thinking.

"Okay, everyone came out of the mountains all the way, and after a half-day car, at this time you should be hungry, eat first, and then the waiter will serve the food."

Li Yifan shouted to the two waiters who were nervously standing at the gate, and then the waiters quickly ran out of the box as if fleeing for their lives.

The men in the mountains are relatively rough and have no scheming, although these are the heads of the villages, and they are a little rich, but the five-star hotels in the province are not something they can afford.

The food here is indeed more distinctive, and it is very appetizing to these guys, since the host has said it, they are still polite, and they are all flying up and down in their hands, and the table will soon be a scene of wind and clouds.

Seeing the scene of these people eating, Li Yifan smiled slightly in his heart, this is the true color of these people.

Lao Dao saw the smile on Li Yifan's face, and then a little embarrassed, obviously thinking that the group of people who came with him were a little unable to get on the stage, so he coughed and gargled twice, but the effect was not very good.

Tian Zhuang, who was sitting on the other side, seemed to be very open, the chopsticks in his hand flew up and down, and he was foaming at the mouth.

Soon the table was swept by like a typhoon, and only a mess remained, because there was still something to talk about later, so everyone did not drink.

Li Yifan saw that everyone was eating and drinking, so he cleared his throat and coughed twice, and only then did the group focus their attention back.

"Are you happy with today's hospitality? Are you all full? If you don't have enough to eat, let them add a few more dishes? ”

Li Yifan asked with a little politeness, in fact, there are a few of the stout men below who have not eaten enough, but their leaders, Lao Dao and Tian Zhuang, did not speak, and they did not dare to say anything.

"Well, it looks like everyone is full, and now that we're full, let's get down to business. I would like to invite you to come over today, and the why, everyone must know very well. On behalf of the Northwest Mining Company, I have come here to investigate, and you must be well aware of the wealth buried under the land of your village. This time, we are just here to do a preliminary exploration investigation, mainly to find out how many reserves there are in your mine, and after the reserves are clarified, we can start to negotiate, and the price is negotiable. So this time, I invite you to come, say hello to everyone, and see if you have any opinions? If not, my exploration team can go to your land tomorrow to explore and investigate, I don't know what your intentions are? ”

Li Yifan's words were very polite, he wanted to get these mines, but he also didn't want to be wronged, after all, you have to find out what the reserves of these mines are, and whether they are worth developing, so that you can discuss the rest of the matter.

On this question, Lao Dao agrees very much.

"No problem, you can send someone over tomorrow, we're ready to welcome you. If you don't have enough people, or you need help or something, just say hello to the villagers. ”

Lao Dao is the patriarch of these Miao villages, and he is also the head of the largest Miao village, and he is very authoritative in the hearts of these people, and his words represent all the Miao people here, and basically no one objected.

And when it came to Tian Zhuang's side, it seemed that there was a problem, Lao Dao agreed very happily, but Lao Tian didn't say anything at all, Li Yifan's eyes turned and looked at Tian Zhuang.

"Mr. Li, what price do you plan to pay for these mines? And after you take over the mine, what are you going to do? ”

This Tian Zhuang is a thorn, but Li Yifan is not afraid of him.

"First of all, I want to say that the price issue, it's not easy to say now, after all, it depends on what your ore reserves are, and we have to do cost accounting before we can set the price in the later stage. The second question, also the same as above, must wait until the mineral reserves have been ascertained before it can be discussed. ”

"Whoa!"

After hearing such an answer, Tian Zhuang slammed the table and stood up, with an expression of even more displeasure on his face. (To be continued......)
