After Ye Ming returned to Beishan, he spent half a day dealing with some urgent official business, and then called Fu Lei to his office and instructed him to immediately start the auction of the mining rights of the Jigongling lead-zinc mine, and restore the bidding qualification of Honghua Mining Company, allowing the company to sign up for bidding.

Fu Lei saw that Ye Ming suddenly changed his mind and allowed Honghua Company to participate in the bidding, he was deeply shocked in his heart, and he didn't dare to ask anything, so he had to agree.

After Fu Lei left, Ye Ming immediately called Shi Rong, Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Management Committee of the Beishan Development Zone, and asked: "Comrade Shi Rong, I remember that you reported something to me before the Spring Festival, saying that there was a businessman from Beishan who was harvesting rare and precious timber in the country, and wanted to buy a piece of land in the development zone to build a furniture city, and asked to see me, but at that time, I considered that the development zone was mainly based on scientific and technological innovation industries, so I did not agree to meet him. Do you know this boss? How strong is your company? ”

Shi Rong hurriedly said: "Secretary Ye, to be honest, this businessman is a cousin of mine, named Shi Xin, who began to harvest rosewood, golden silk nanmu and other precious timber in the country more than ten years ago, and then transferred it to China for sale, making a lot of money. Later, he set up a company called "Xinbao Furniture Co., Ltd." in the country, and began to produce and sell high-end and precious furniture such as rosewood and golden silk nanmu. In November last year, he heard me say that the current economic situation in Beishan is very good, and the high-speed rail will be opened soon, so he wants to buy a piece of land in our development zone and build a large furniture city as a strategic fulcrum for Xinbao company's domestic expansion.

"As for Shi Xin, I know him well, he is a solid, steady, hard-working doer. He first drove a large truck on the southwest border for those merchants who distributed precious timber across borders, and after saving a sum of money, he bought several trucks with several truck drivers, set up a transport team, and began to undertake the business of transporting timber across the border. During this period, he became acquainted with some tribal leaders in Nova and Singuo states, and won their favor and trust, allowing him to harvest precious timber such as golden silk nanmu and rosewood in the areas of these tribes, on the condition that he 'tax' the tribe according to the amount of harvested. From this time on, Shi Xin embarked on the road of getting rich quick. It is said that his personal assets are currently worth five billion dollars, and he can be regarded as a top richest man in our Beishan. ”

Ye Ming let out an "um" and asked again: "Is this Shi Xin in Beishan now?" Will you be able to contact him if he isn't? ”

Shi Rong hurriedly replied: "Secretary Ye, Shi Xin happens to be still in Beishan. Yesterday was his father's ninetieth birthday, and he was a dutiful son, so he specially rushed back from the kingdom to go to his father's grave. I met with him yesterday and asked him when he was leaving, and he said it would be three or four days. ”

"Well, you call him now and say I want to see him. If he is free, I invite him to my office and I will talk to him face-to-face about buying land in the development zone. ”

Shi Rong said happily: "Okay, thank you Secretary Ye." I'll call him right now and ask him to come to your office. ”

About half an hour later, a middle-aged man of medium stature, black and red skin, and a solid and reliable face, under the guidance of Su Jinsong, knocked on the door and entered Ye Ming's office, and greeted Ye Ming with a smile on his face.

Ye Ming hurriedly stood up, shook hands with him across the table and said hello, smiled and asked him to sit down on the chair opposite, and instructed Su Jinsong to make him tea.

After Su Jinsong finished making tea and left, Ye Mingdong asked: "Mr. Shi, I heard your cousin Shi Rong say that your business is doing very well now, and you are interested in buying land in our development zone to build a furniture city, right?" ”

Shi Xin nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes, yes." Secretary Ye, to be honest, the business of the contemptible people in the country has been really smooth in the past few years, and they have also made a little money. However, I am a soil bun, although I have been wandering outside for more than 20 years, I still love the homeland of Beishan, and a few years ago I had the idea of returning to my roots, and I wanted to shift the focus of my career to my hometown. Especially since the second half of last year, I have heard from relatives and friends that since you took charge of Beishan, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the investment environment, social security, and cadre style here, and it has become a hot investment hotspot in Tianjiang Province. Therefore, I want to return to my hometown to invest, and I implore Secretary Ye to fulfill my wish and allow me to buy a piece of land in the development zone to build a furniture city. ”

Speaking of this, he stood up and bowed to Ye Ming, his ardent anticipation overflowing.

Ye Ming hurriedly waved his hand to signal him to sit down, and said in a very cautious tone: "Mr. Shi, you should know: Beishan Development Zone is now stationed in scientific and technological innovation enterprises, and our purpose is also to build the development zone into the largest science and technology industrial park, therefore, for enterprises with low technology content like yours, we do not agree to invest in the development zone in principle." However, if your company does have the strength to occupy a certain share in the domestic high-end luxury furniture market, it will also play a great role in promoting the economic development of our Beishan. It's just that I don't know much about your company, so it's hard to agree to your request right away. ”

Shi Xin listened to the meaning of Ye Ming's words, as if he had doubts about the strength of his company, and suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Secretary Ye, the strength of our company is relatively strong, and Shi Rong can testify to me." If you don't believe Shi Rong, you can also go to our company for a field trip, go to see my furniture factory and lumber yard in Weiguo, or you can find the locals to learn about our company's situation, and you will be relieved at that time. ”

Ye Ming deliberately groaned for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'm just going to go to Weiguo to inspect a mining company in the past few days, so I'll go to your company to have a look." ”

It turned out that Ye Ming considered that he would go abroad for an investigation, and it would definitely be impossible for him to go alone, nor would he be able to inspect only one company, and he had to form an inspection group to make the trip, otherwise he would be exposed. Moreover, after arriving in the country, he could only take one or two of his henchmen and cronies to Honghua Company to exchange hostages, and the rest of the delegation had to be placed in another company, so he thought of this Shi Xin......

Shi Xin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Ye Ming agreed to go to his company for inspection, and hurriedly thanked him, and said that he could wait a few days and rush to the country with the inspection team.

Subsequently, he tried to ask Ye Ming: "Secretary Ye, take the liberty of asking: You just said that you are going to go to the country to inspect a mining enterprise, which one?" Is the boss from Kitayama? ”

Ye Ming wanted to ask him about Honghua Company and Gong Pengju, so he replied: "The name of this company is 'Honghua Mining Company', the chairman of the board is named Gong Pengju, and his hometown is from Min'an City. This company is ready to bid for the mining rights of Jigongling lead-zinc mine, but I don't know if their company has the qualifications and strength to mine large-scale lead-zinc mines, so I want to go to his company to investigate. By the way, do you know Gong Pengju? How is this person? Is it reliable? ”
