Episode 39 People in the Rivers and Lakes (30) Jade Battle (II)
"Tripartite competition for jade", formed three major factions in the small county, due to the local boss Xie started earlier, coupled with the support of dozens of '10,000 households' in the small county, he soon emerged and stood out, his side is mainly mining and excavation, and most of the excavated stones are sold to the southern jade township, after the account arrives, he will sell the next batch of goods, the advantage of his side is that there is no stone detention, a handful of sharp ropes.
The foresight of the businessmen in the capital, they are coming to the small county to make money, because of their aspect, is to have experts and experts, to have funds and funds, the main thing is to 'stake land', as long as the experts see the boundaries of the land, they will spare no effort to get it, these people are some material shortage period' Da Lao Jia', they are not in a hurry to sell the rough stone, and they are sold to the capital, and there are special carving masters after careful carving, and these jade artifacts are naturally turned around between officials and businessmen.
After getting the money from Liu Sheng to sell jade, Lao Fu was not in a hurry to make the next move, he left the vice president in the village to continue to excavate, and he returned to the branch of the small county, playing mahjong all day with the 'friends' found by the director of the investment promotion office, and by the way, from their mouths, to understand the attitude of the county's "management".
The provincial newspaper serialized the deeds of the small county's 'local jade', and also praised this as a 'new achievement' and 'new phenomenon' in the early days of reform and opening up; a few days after that, businessmen from this province and even businessmen from other places and even from the eastern coast came to the small county to discuss the establishment of a 'jade digging company', and after these people came to the small county, most of them lived in the county guest house, and because of the tight room, it became overcrowded, and the price of goods also rose, so that the people in the small county town who did not make much money were complaining and complaining. 'It is the old peasants' land that is dug up, and they can't get a penny, but the negative impact of this has caused their living standards to decline. ’
"I said Mr. Fu, what's wrong with your company, I heard rumors that you can't do the gang of people from the capital, are you making money from your jade?" The director of the investment promotion office found that now playing mahjong with Lao Fu, this guy has become a lot more powerful overnight. After eight laps, the people he brought not only did not win money, but took out a lot of money, so he expected that the company really had no money.
"Director, you said money, yes, of course there is, didn't you see that our company helped build a small school in the village?" Lao Fu was playing cards and drinking tea at the same time. The female accountant stood behind him and pressed his shoulder, not to mention how comfortable it was.
"Now the excavation rent of one acre of land has risen to 1,500, if your company doesn't start again. The land in the county was lost to Boss Xie and them, "A section chief of the Land Bureau, he was ordered by the director of the bureau to come here to explore the situation. Because every time a land transaction is made, they, as the competent authorities, are now also coming to collect money. However, they don't collect much, only 50 yuan per acre, but the whole county is big, which is also a big number.
"Ah, it's one thousand and five, yesterday I remember you said it's still one thousand and fourteen, right?" Lao Fu turned his head to the female accountant and said.
"Yes, I heard from others yesterday that the land on the farm in Daling River was sold for 1,04, and it was bought by the gang from the capital, and it was more than 1 million yuan as soon as it was sold," the female accountant repeated what she reported to Lao Fu in the morning.
"It's really a price a day, I think it can go up," Lao Fu took a sip of tea and played a card that was originally useful.
"Really? You said that it can still rise, how much money does it have to rise," next to the old pay of the card friends have not spoken, the director of the investment promotion office brought when introduced, this is a former in the county of the countryside educated youth, now it seems that he also went to the sea, as a boss, he also saw from the newspaper that the small county found 'local jade', to play mahjong with Lao Fu, the main purpose is to 'learn from the experience'.
"I can't think of a week where two thousand yuan can arrive," the expression on Lao Fu's face was calm and ruthless.
"Then Mr. Fu, people have a lot of enclosures, why aren't you in a hurry, you know that the land is going to rise, why don't you take advantage of the cheap to get more?"
"Our company's main business is in the provincial capital, and coming to you is 'hunting, doing some side jobs', the board of directors has not yet decided, I am a part-time worker, how dare I move around, do you say yes."
"Mr. Fu is right, what he said is so right, this big company is a big organization, and the directors have to have a meeting to have the final say, I have been in a large company before," it seems that this rural educated youth feels the same way.
"Bell~~~," the phone rang in Lao Fu's office next door, and the female accountant immediately walked out of the room and listened to the phone.
After a long while, the female accountant walked in with a sad face and whispered a few words in Lao Fu's ear.
"Be louder, I've been having bad ears lately," Lao Fu yelled, and judging by his expression, he was very upset.
"The deputy general manager of the village called and said that the village chief has come to the county with several team leaders and wants to talk to you about retreating."
"Retreat? Are they rich? Lao Fu was even more surprised, and his expression became more serious.
"Why don't we stop here today?" The director of the investment promotion office saw that Lao Fu seemed to have an accident here, so he proposed to end the game immediately.
"Play, keep playing, I don't believe it, the sky can still fall, four cylinders," Lao Fu didn't look at it, and played a card.
"I'm Hu, Mr. Fu, I'm really embarrassed, I'm 'clipped', this is my bank, you haven't opened the door yet, it seems to be full," the section chief of the Land Bureau, Hu a big card, very happy, today he has been losing, after this card, he can return to the capital, and there is a slight surplus.
"Give money, give money, I really don't have the heart to fight this time, you see, a set of vices has been beaten out," Lao Fu regretted again and again, and nodded without noticing.
"Since Mr. Fu is busy, let's disperse today, let's disperse," several people aligned with the 'great unity' in front of them, feeling that the income and expenditure were mediocre, and there was no big win or loss, so they left Lao Fu's 'mahjong room. ’
Just as everyone was about to go out of the gate, the village chief and Lao Wan, with a large group of people, broke in, and the people from the gate security department did not stop them.
'Mr. Fu, do you need me to help you call a few policemen over?' Seeing that the situation was not good, the director of the investment promotion office whispered in Lao Fu's ear.
"No need. It's all acquaintances, so let's do that. ”
"I said Lao Fu, what's wrong with you lately, why haven't you been to the village for a long time?" The captain of the production team who was stunned called 'Lao Fu' as soon as they met, and canceled the original 'Mr. Fu'.
"Recently, my wife has been sick, and I have been listening to the phone in the company, what's the matter, you have so many people, do you want to eat the food in our canteen again? Come on, tell the canteen that I will invite the villagers to eat at noon and prepare more," Lao Fu said that although his face was not good-looking, his voice was quite loud.
"Don't make so many useless things, I said Mr. Fu, you have so few cars to dig jade, can you finish it by the end of this year." Will we have to wait to grow food next year? "The last time I drank, I also said that I would 'let the captain of the production team for a few years', but this time I also broke my face and 'crossed'.
"I don't understand what you mean, don't stand here. Come with me to the conference room, let's go there and sit and talk," Lao Fu glanced at the female accountant, and the female accountant left.
In the large conference room of the small county branch of Jihong Company. The atmosphere was quite tense, with more than a dozen villagers in the village on one end and Lao Fu and several relevant personnel in the company on the other. There are also a few 'internal guards' who wear black sunglasses.
"Village chief, Lao Wan, did you two brothers come to me just for the purpose of digging the ground?"
"Mr. Fu, this is the case, it's not this thing, at the beginning you asked us to rent land in the village, the price was 400 yuan per acre, and now it has risen to 1,005, does your company have to add more to us, our village of more than 3,000 people is counting on this bit of land to live," the village chief spoke first, he said it standing up, and after he finished speaking, he also sat down.
"Village Chief, you are so forgetful, our company and your village committee signed a contract at the beginning, and this is written in black and white, this is the price," another vice president of the branch explained the terms of the contract.
"We are rural people, we don't know whether the contract is not a contract, anyway, now there is a price difference, what do you say, whether to return the land, or to add money," another team leader of the production team came out.
"I said Lao Wan, you are an understanding person in the village, tell me, when you lied to our President Liu, we all passed it in the future, and we didn't pursue you anything, besides, the land you gave our company is all uncultivated land, even if it is 400 yuan a mu of land, it will not suffer," and others were unreasonable, Lao Fu directly talked to Lao Wan, he knew that Lao Wan was prestigious in the village and could be half of the village's home.
"Having said that, but isn't it different now, our village committee members have discussed, Mr. Fu, you can give us more or less more, so that we and the villagers can also explain it," Lao Wan used a begging tone.
"And how much do you say you want to add? Let me listen, and if it is reasonable, shall I give it to you? Lao Fu leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes.
"At least four hundred," roared the village chief.
"Four hundred? You're not going to rob the money," the vice president of the branch immediately responded.
"It's not your right to speak, I'll talk to Mr. Fu, I said Mr. Fu, do you agree?"
Lao Fu opened his eyes and looked at the village chief, "Four hundred is indeed too much, and we don't have so much money in the company's account right now." ”
"More than four hundred, compared to others, they are all cheap for you, Lao Fu, don't toast and don't eat and drink," the two strong squad leaders stood up at the same time.
"You all talk and talk, sit down," a few 'internal guards' beside Lao Fu immediately walked behind Lao Fu and pointed to the two squad leaders who stood up.
"You sit down for Lao Tzu, let you fight, see if everyone is ready, if you really want to fight, bring more people over, come a thousand eight hundred, I think it's enough," the village chief pressed the two squad leaders to sit down, and he said in a voice that he was not afraid of these 'internal guards' who pretended to be underworlds.
"I heard that there is also a saying about retreating, Lao Wan, tell me, what do you think?" Lao Fu did not rush to bargain.
"We haven't thought about the land yet, anyway, you have dug a lot of land, it doesn't matter how much land you have dug up, and the rest of the original price will be refunded to you, what do you think?" The unanimous opinion of the village committee members was to take back the land and sell it to Boss Xie and the merchants in the capital, and to see which of them offered the highest price, and to whom they would sell, even if the land was not very good, they could sell it for a thousand yuan, and it was impossible for them to lose money.
"I'll call the village, I'll see how they dug up, if there is still a large piece of land, our company will return it to you, this is going down," Lao Fu said in a very easy-going tone.
When the old farmers heard this, they didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and they all said in unison, "Okay, you can call and ask, we will wait for you here." ”
In the office of the finance office, Lao Fu dialed the phone number in the village, "I'm Lao Fu, find someone who can talk and come and listen." ”
"Hello Mr. Fu, I'm Xiao Pan!"
"How much local jade has been dug up?"
"It's almost enough for a few cars, how are you, in the morning, I saw that these old farmers in the village were going to the city, and I knew that the road was not good, so I called you."
"You behaved very well, now I order you, load all the raw materials for me and transport them away, not a single rough stone will be left behind, stop the work in your hands, and carry all the rough stones into the car."
"Mr. Fu, where is this car? We don't have enough trucks here, huh? ”
"The car will arrive soon, please okay, after the rough stone is moved, all the personnel and machinery will be withdrawn from the village and returned to the county branch to gather, do you know the way?"
"If you know that Mr. Fu is the president, you can rest assured."
In the canteen of the small county branch, the dishes are still so good, accompanied by Lao Fu and the relevant personnel of several companies, the leaders of the production team in the village reviewed the taste of the meal again, plus boxes of beer and liquor, they drank for several hours until the evening.
"I said Mr. Fu, you are too interesting, I thought that it would take a while to talk to you, but I didn't expect it, you are so open, but you can rest assured, we will pay the amount of the land refund, rest assured," Lao Wan drank beer and said to Lao Fu while drinking.
"Money is not money is secondary, we must know each other, can't because of money, hurt the harmony is not, by the way, Lao Wan, you better sell the land to Boss Xie, I heard that he has mentioned the land lease money today to 1,006, maybe tomorrow will be 1,070 Maybe," Lao Fu accompanied the wine at the same time, but also did not forget to give Lao Wan 'debut'.
"Okay, okay, we'll sell it to Boss Xie, I don't know where Lu Dao got so much money, yes, he and I are still elementary school classmates," the village chief is the one who climbed up the pole, and he had already forgotten at this time that they came to 'force the palace' today.
