144. Tenacity

When I returned home, as soon as I walked into the courtyard gate, I saw green smoke rising in the small courtyard.

Xu Hengqiang and Zhao Sheng are working together to light a carbon fire, looking at the posture of preparing for a barbecue.

"Xu Xin is back."

Zhao Sheng still has panda eyes, but his mental state has improved.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Xu Hengqiang puffed out his cheeks and blew into the charcoal fire, choking on the smoke.

"I'll do it."

Xu Xin took over the work of lighting the fire, and when the charcoal fire turned red, he covered it with barbed wire, put the skewers of marinated meat on the plate on the grill, and slowly grilled them.

Feng Yuanai and Yun Zhifeng were preparing other dishes in the kitchen of the house.

It's cold, and the barbecue needs to be eaten while roasting to be crispy, so after Xu Xin grilled some of the barbecue, he sat down in the pavilion and chatted with his father and Zhao Sheng while eating.

Seeing that the father and son of the Xu family were eating with their mouths full of oil, Zhao Sheng had no appetite, and he sighed a lot in his heart, "Old Xu, thank you." ”

He poured a full glass of white wine into the small glass in front of him, and took one of the glasses up and drank it down.

One or two sipes of wine.

"Drink less." Xu Hengqiang also picked up the wine glass and drank it, not forgetting to advise.

"Your five million can give me at least two months offend." Zhao Sheng had a thousand words in his heart, and they all melted into the wine.

"Haven't you told your brother and sister about the company?" Xu Hengqiang can see the pressure on Zhao Sheng.

"Nope."

Zhao Sheng shook his head, his face full of bitterness, "Every time the words come to my mouth, I can't say it." It was their Yun family's business, and it had only been in my hands for less than ten years, and it was about to go bankrupt.

I don't know how to explain it to her, I can't say it. ”

Xu Xin put down the meat skewer in his hand and glanced at his father.

They are all anxious for Zhao Sheng, and they are also trying their best to solve it.

But so far, there is still no certainty.

"There's always a way!"

Xu Hengqiang didn't know how Xu Xin talked with Hongchen Group, and seeing that Xu Xin didn't speak, he couldn't say anything.

"Today is a happy day, your family has been moving to a new house for a while, don't talk about this, drink!" Zhao Sheng filled the wine glass again, and then drank it all.

Alcohol numbs the nerves, but it doesn't really eliminate the worries.

"It's coming, it's hot spicy hot pot!"

Yun Zhifeng came out of the house with a shout, and walked into the pavilion with Feng Yuanai holding a hot pot.

Cold weather, hot pot, the most cold.

While eating, Xu Xin was also flipping the barbecue on the grill outside the pavilion.

In this small family gathering, there was only one junior, Xu Xin, and the topic inevitably fell on him.

"You tell Aunt Yun the truth, are you a big boss now?" Yun Zhifeng grabbed Xu Xin's arm, just to ask Xu Xin to the bottom of it.

Xu Xin held the barbecue in his hand and didn't know how to answer.

The other three elders also laughed and watched the excitement on the sidelines.

"The company has just started, and it hasn't seen benefits yet." Xu Xin said it very truthfully.

"Are you worried that Aunt Yun will borrow money from you?" Yun Zhifeng glared at Xu Xin with an unhappy expression.

"Can't!"

"I heard that the gold mine in the Misty Dragon Valley has an economic value of billions of billions!"

"Hey, hey......" Xu Xin didn't dare to say that he was very short of money now, because everywhere needed to invest money.

"In the future, we will have to pay for the dinner!" Yun Zhifeng pretended to look like he hated the rich, "I have worked for more than 20 years, and I am about to retire, and my salary is only more than 10,000 yuan, why should you be the boss at the age of twenty-one?" ”

Amidst laughter, the dinner was a pleasure.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Hengqiang called Xu Xin to the pavilion and inquired, "Do you have accurate news from Zhou Shuqing?" ”

He saw Xu Xin returning home and also dealing with the information of the Hongchen Group's mine, and after a few casual glances, he found that his son was summarizing the old information before.

In his experience, it's hard to get anything useful out of doing so.

Is this kind of work worth 30 million?

He was skeptical for a while, but he also hoped to be able to negotiate Zhao Sheng's matter with Hongchen Group in one fell swoop.

I didn't dare to mention it to Zhao Sheng just now, because I was worried that the blows of loss would fall on Zhao Sheng's head again and again.

"Wait for news."

Xu Xin was not completely sure, "Zhou Shuqing promised me, but it depends on the next development of the situation." ”

"When I look at Zhao Sheng's current mental state, I can't help but think of my experience ten years ago." Xu Hengqiang sighed slightly.

Xu Xin couldn't interfere in the affairs of Hongchen Group, so he waited for Zhou Shuqing to give a reply.

Early the next morning, Xu Xin came to Shushu Mining.

Boom Boom Boom ......

While waiting for the electronic door to open, there was a knock on the window.

A pair of big black eyes on a round face sparkled outside the car window.

Unexpectedly, after such a long time, Zhong Manman was still waiting at the gate as always.

Xu Xin admired the girl's persistence and tenacity and pressed the window.

After such a long period of perseverance, I finally wore the water drop stone and moved the heavens!

At this moment, Zhong Manman's nose was sour, and he had the urge to cry, and his eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

Manman, be strong!

She secretly cheered herself on, and then showed a bright smile, "Boss Xu......"

She learned from the employees here and shouted enthusiastically to Xu Xin.

Then he raised two bags of breakfast in his hand and cheered, "I brought you breakfast!" ”

Looking at the soy milk and buns in the transparent plastic bag, Xu Xin suddenly had a guess.

Could it be that these days, Zhong Manman buys two breakfasts every morning, and then squats at the door all day?

If so, what kind of belief is it that makes this intern girl so persistent?

Xu Xin was very moved.

The electronic door was open, and Uncle Ge's rickety body was saluting crookedly, and the tongue of the big wolf dog at his feet was hanging down to his mouth.

"Get in the car." Xu Xin greeted Zhong Manman.

"Good!"

Zhong Manman was so happy that he pulled the door handle several times before opening the door and sitting in the passenger seat.

The car passed through the gate and stopped at the entrance of the office building.

Xu Xin turned off the engine of the car, but did not get out of the car, turned his head sideways, and looked at the round-faced girl next to him curiously, "You come here every day and wait?" ”

He thought that this girl would not bother him for a few days.

Zhong Manman shook his head.

It seems that I guessed wrong.

Now that the living conditions are so good, how can there be such a tenacious young girl.

Xu Xin thought, at least his indifference didn't hurt this girl.

"I don't come sometimes on Saturdays and weekends, sometimes I do." She recalls this experience very seriously.

Xu Xin looked at the girl blankly, and then pointed to the breakfast in her hand, "Do you bring two breakfasts every time you come over?" ”

"Hmm." She didn't even think to hide it.

Once Xu Xin left at night and saw Zhong Manman sitting on the steps of the security booth, nibbling on the cold buns in the morning.

Now that it's cold, the buns can freeze as hard as stones.

It's sad to think about.

"Why?" Xu Xin asked for no reason.

"Hmmm......"

Zhong Manman raised his head and thought hard, "Editor Shu said that only by taking you down can I complete the task and officially become a regular!" ”

Xu Xin had heard this statement, but she didn't expect it to be an obsession in her heart.

She has such a passion for journalism.

"Didn't you buy it for me?" Xu Xin pointed to breakfast.

"Oh, here you go!" Zhong Manman hurriedly handed it over.

It's cold, and the buns and soy milk are a little cold.

Xu Xin had breakfast, but in order not to disappoint Zhong Manman, he still ate the two buns and soy milk.

Zhong Manman was very happy, looking at Xu Xin with big eyes full of hope, "When will you be interviewed by me?" ”

"Can you only be regularized if I am interviewed?"

"Hmm." She nodded earnestly.

Xu Xin thought for a while, but said irrelevant words: "I think you editor Shu are too careless, it's dangerous to let you run outside alone as a young girl!" ”

"No," Zhong Manman said while nibbling on the bun, "It was I who told Editor Shu that I could be alone, because I think you will definitely agree to me." ”

"Okay, I promise you." Before Zhong Manman was happy, Xu Xin added another condition, "You have to wait for me to get ready, okay?" ”

"Good!"

Xu Xin came to Shushu Mining today mainly to learn about the progress of the application for prospecting rights for diamond projects.

He Xi called to urge him before, but he didn't have time to deal with it personally, so he could only ask the people on the mining side of the book to cooperate with 107 Company in the application for prospecting rights.

After making sure that everything was going well, he didn't contact Bai Yifei and drove directly to Deyun City.

A few days ago, He Xi called again to urge, but he couldn't drag it out.

The office of the 107 company is still the same as the old geological team in the past, with an old yard with lush trees and holly planted on both sides of the road.

The exterior walls of the office building are peeling, and behind them are rows of dormitories.

The people of the 107 Company led Xu Xin and Zhong Manman to a large office.

He Xi, He Penghui, Wu Fuyan and others were all there, they bowed their heads and discussed, obviously encountering a problem.

"Boss Xu!" Wu Fuyan was reminded by his subordinates and noticed the person at the door.

With everyone's eyes coming, there is also a huge video camera.

Black Gold Satellite TV wants to make a diamond prospecting documentary, which is obviously the next hard work, and there are many journalists who follow 107.

No wonder he sent Zhong Manman to stare at Xu Xin alone, it seems that there are not enough people.

Seeing Zhong Manman come in, colleagues shouted and asked for warmth.

Xu Xin nodded at everyone and walked next to He Xi, "Old He, I'm late." ”

"What's the matter with you?" He Xi's words were reproachful, and his wrinkled face was extremely serious.

After all, it was an elder, Xu Xin quickly admitted his mistake, "I'm really sorry, the mining side in the book is so busy that I can't take a break." ”

"You weren't there to sign the contract, so you called someone to bring the contract over, and you were so relieved to leave it alone?"

After determining the diamond implementation plan, Shushu Mining and 107 Company had to sign a formal entrustment contract, but Xu Xin happened to be processing the information of the mercury mine during that time, and he was really busy, so he had to let Bai Yi not sign, and the rest of the things were run by the mining office staff in the book.

Bai Yifei is the legal person and general manager of the mining industry in the book, and he can indeed handle these things with full authority.

But this matter was here for He Xi, but it made him feel that Xu Xin was not concerned enough about the diamond project.

As he said when he called before, the reason why he trusted Xu Xin and asked Xu Xin to invest in this project was because of Xu Xin's vision and technology!

Xu Xin hurriedly apologized, then leaned in front of the computer, glanced at the drawings on it, and the screen opened a project layout drawing.

"What are you discussing?" He hastened to change the subject.

Wu Fuyan controlled the computer and explained to Xu Xin: "The previous seven prospecting target areas, after the analysis of He Lao, Mr. Song, and Mr. He, eliminated two of them. But the problem now is that we still have doubts about the presence of kimberlite in the ground in two of the remaining five prospecting targets. ”

Of the seven prospecting targets, only three of them are indeed kimberlite.

They can't see the underground, how can they make such accurate inferences?

Xu Xin did not tell them where kimberlite existed, and the explanation was not clear, and when the project was carried out and some simple verification work was done, the technicians were able to rule it out.

"The budget for the project is fifteen million, do you know?" He Penghui said.

"I know, I've seen the implementation plan."

He Xi took over the conversation and said into the computer screen: "The focus of our work is on the first prospecting target area, which is called Jingfeng, so the name of the project is also called Jingfeng Diamond Exploration.

This place is most likely connected to the kimberlite outcrop found in the south. ”

"These two places are far apart." Xu Xin couldn't figure it out.

"We can be sure that there must be hidden kimberlites underneath Jingfeng, cylindrical kimberlites, which tend to develop into veins at depth.

According to my speculation, the kimberlite in the veins deep underground basically followed the strike of this fault to the original river. ”

He Xi was chiseled, stretched out his hand and patted a stack of documents on the table, "I once led a team to search for diamond primary ore along the Yuanjiang River, and found this kimberlite outcrop on the bank of the Yuanjiang River.

As a result, after doing the work, it was found that the diamond content was not high.

I've always kept this in my mind. ”

"That's why you think there's a lot of prospecting here?" Xu Xin didn't want to check the information, so he asked directly.

"Yes." He Xi nodded, "I even think that the source of the large-grained diamond placer that appeared in the lower reaches of the Yuan River is here!" ”

"What's the old saying, let's throw off our arms and work hard!"

Xu Xin was also quite moved.

Turning his head and seeing He Penghui's smiling face, he immediately straightened his identity and promised: "Mr. He, according to the contract, the project start-up capital is five million, and it will be available tomorrow." ”

His idea was to transfer the five million on his card to the mining company in the book, and then transfer the mining finance in the book to the 107 company, which was more in line with the procedure.

Money is in place, more than anything else!

He Penghui suddenly smiled even brighter, and held Xu Xin's hand tightly, "All the technical backbones of our 107 company must do a good job in this project!" ”
