Guo Hongjiang's private jet was a Gulfstream 550. Although it was a generation older than Ma Xiong's Gulfstream 650, it was still a top business jet.
Xia Ruofei had taken the Gulfstream series business jet many times. He had a certain immunity to the luxurious and comfortable cabin.
The short two-hour flight was very smooth. Xia Ruofei also visited the cockpit on the way.
The cockpit of the Gulfstream series was very modern. It was equipped with advanced facilities such as visual assistance systems and three-dimensional weather radar. It was full of a sense of technology.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be tempted after seeing it.
He also specifically asked the captain about the Gulfstream series business jet. He learned that the price of the latest Gulfstream G650 was about 430 million Huaxia dollars, and the old G550 was about 320 million Huaxia dollars.
"After the Australian farm starts to generate income, I will buy a private jet to play with!" Xia Ruofei secretly said in his heart.
With this idea, Xia Ruofei simply chatted with the two pilots in the cockpit about the Gulfstream aircraft. He didn't return to his seat until the plane entered the approach stage.
The plane landed smoothly.
Xia Ruofei expressed his gratitude to the crew, then dragged his small suitcase and left the tarmac. He left the airport from the private jet's exclusive small terminal.
Ye Linyun had already driven the car and was waiting at the door.
"Brother Xia, you must have had a hard trip!" Ye Linyun said as he took the suitcase.
"You kid … Didn't I say it before? In the future, things like picking people up at the airport will be done by the people below. " Xia Ruofei said, "You are a dignified security director. You are also a senior in the company. Don't you think it's degrading to be my driver?"
Ye Linyun said with a smile, "I don't think so! Besides, I didn't want to be the security director for a long time! "
Xia Ruofei glanced at Ye Linyun and said, "I know your thoughts are on the tea, but before the personnel change, you can't quit!"
Ye Linyun quickly said, "I know! Don't worry, Brother Xia! "
Xia Ruofei nodded. Ye Linyun quickly opened the door of the Mercedes-Benz for Xia Ruofei. Xia Ruofei lowered his head and got in.
Ye Linyun jogged to the driver's side, opened the door, and got in.
The car started moving slowly. Xia Ruofei said, "Ling Yun, everyone should know that the company will be moving the headquarters to the city soon. Since you're willing to work in the tea industry, you can adjust the headquarters when they move!"
"Alright, I'll follow your arrangements!" Ye Linyun replied without hesitation.
"During the period before the relocation, we have to pay attention to the security work," Xia Ruofei said, "We also have to remind everyone from time to time not to let down their guard."
Taoyuan Farm produced a large number of Taoyuan vegetables every day. It was inevitable that it would arouse the greed of others. The factory price of Taoyuan vegetables was mostly dozens of yuan per kilogram. If a thief sneaked in and casually stole some or destroyed the vegetable field, the loss would be huge.
Moreover, there were precious shad fish in the farm. This kind of fish was very timid. If they were really disturbed, it was very likely that a large number of them would die. The loss would be really heavy.
"Understood!" Ye Linyun said, "Brother Xia, don't worry! The brothers know in their hearts! With such a high salary, if there were any mistakes in the work, it would really be a disgrace to the old team! "
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "When the time comes, no matter what the arrangement is, you will still enjoy the standard of the company's senior management."
"Hey, I don't care." Ye Linyun smiled and said, "Following Brother Xia, I never have to worry about food and drink. It doesn't matter how much money I have …"
"Nonsense!" Xia Ruofei said, "Don't you want to save some money for a wife? Besides, the housing prices in Sanshan are crazy now. You are not young anymore. Once you have money, you can hurry up and buy a house! "
Ye Linyun smiled and pretended to be driving seriously. He didn't say anything.
However, Xia Ruofei had an idea in his mind. With the expansion of the company, there were more and more employees, especially in the farm and pharmaceutical factory, which were labor-intensive industries. These two areas had the largest number of employees. In addition, the e-commerce department also needed a lot of people. Xia Ruofei felt that it was time to adjust the personnel structure. It was best to imitate the grading system of other companies, where different levels corresponded to different salary scales.
In addition, the company's senior management also needed appropriate incentives. Otherwise, it would be fine for one or two years, but after a long time, the enthusiasm of those senior officials would decline.
Even if the annual salary was high, in the end, they were just senior employees.
However, Xia Ruofei didn't consider incentive options because he didn't want to raise funds or go public. The Taoyuan Company could only be 100% in his hands. In fact, the current situation was the same. Except for the Wonderland Farm in Australia, which was cooperating with Tang He, Xia Ruofei owned all the other assets.
Not only did Xia Ruofei have no plans to raise funds or go public, but the company also didn't have a bank loan so far.
In other words, the debt ratio was 0%.
This was very rare in the business world. Most companies were in debt, and the debt ratio of many real estate companies was even more than 50%.
Of course, this was mainly because Xia Ruofei's company didn't need to expand. In addition, his core competitiveness was in the Ring-Tu space, and his need for external help was very low.
Since the company wasn't going public, the incentive options were a castle in the air. It was a pie drawn out of thin air and had no meaning.
If there were no shares and no options, then he could only consider dividend rewards.
However, this was only Xia Ruofei's initial idea. He had to communicate with Feng Jing for the specifics.
After returning to the farm, it was already past lunchtime.
Xia Ruofei asked Ye Linyun to come to the small villa with him. After rummaging through the fridge for a long time, they finally found some dumplings, so the two of them made do with the problem of lunch.
However, the dumplings still tasted very good.
These weren't frozen dumplings bought from the supermarket, but made by Huzi's mother herself. She specially bought organic black pork from Sam's Club and made it with Taoyuan vegetables.
Huzi's mother made a lot of dumplings at one time, and then put 15 in a bag and put them in the fridge.
Xia Ruofei occasionally cooked some dumplings to eat, and these dumplings took a long time to finish.
After lunch, Xia Ruofei asked Ye Linyun to go back and rest.
He also went upstairs to take a shower and then took a nap. When it was time to go to work in the afternoon, he got up and changed his clothes and went straight to the office building.
Xia Ruofei came to the door of Feng Jing's office and waved his hand to stop assistant Liu Qian, who got up to greet him. He went directly to the door and gently knocked.
"Please come in!" Feng Jing said loudly.
Xia Ruofei pushed the door open and walked in. Feng Jing was looking down at some documents and asked without looking up, "What's the matter?"
After waiting for a few seconds, she didn't hear any sound. She looked up and found Xia Ruofei a little strange.
Feng Jing quickly stood up and then glared at Xia Ruofei coquettishly and said, "Chairman, how old are you? Why are you still playing such childish tricks? Also, why are you walking so quietly? You almost scared me to death! "
Xia Ruofei chuckled and said: "I'm just short of walking in straight steps! You're too invested in your work! "
Then Xia Ruofei glanced at the documents on the table and asked with a smile, "What are you looking at?"
Feng Jing was about to speak when she saw Liu Qian come in with the freshly brewed tea, so she closed her mouth again.
"Chairman, please have some tea!" Liu Qian put the teacup on the coffee table in front of Xia Ruofei, then bowed slightly and left Feng Jing's office.
Feng Jing waited until Liu Qian closed the door, then said, "I'm looking …"
"Wait! Let me guess! " Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "You're being so mysterious, like an underground meeting … I guess it's the Black Group's agreement!"
Feng Jing curled her lips and said, "You guessed it right. How boring!"
Xia Ruofei laughed and took a sip of the tea. Then, he praised, "Good tea! This should be our company's own Da Hong Pao tea, right? "
"Yes! After Lingyun was done, she gave some to the company's executives. " Feng Jing said, then joked, "Chairman, we're not encroaching on the company's interests, right?"
"Hey! What do you mean? " Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "As long as you don't ship it home in a sack, how much tea can we drink?"
"This tea is not cheap!" Feng Jing said deliberately.
"I can afford it no matter how expensive it is!" Xia Ruofei said impatiently. "Let's make it a rule in the future! Director and above can enjoy it! Implement rationing! "
"Chairman is wise!" Feng Jing said with a smile.
"Let's get down to business!" Xia Ruofei asked, "Has the Black Group's agreement been finalized?"
"Yes! We talked to them according to your instructions. You've already made the decision, so the negotiation went smoothly, "Feng Jing said.
She knew that Xia Ruofei should be most concerned about the effective period of the agreement, so she immediately said, "We've signed a five-year contract with them. The other terms are basically as you said. I've asked the company's legal department to review the contract. There's no problem, so I signed it on behalf of the company."
Xia Ruofei touched his chin and said, "Five years is not a short time, but we're not at a disadvantage. Anyway, the price is fluctuating … Five years it is!"
Feng Jing nodded, then smiled and said, "There's another interesting thing!"
Then, she stood up and walked back to her desk. She took out a stack of newspapers from her desk drawer and handed it to Xia Ruofei.
"What's this?" Xia Ruofei was a little confused.
But after flipping through it, he understood that these newspapers had one thing in common. They published a joint statement from the Black Group and the Black Family, removing George Black from all positions in the company and stripping him of his identity as the heir of the family.
Xia Ruofei quickly looked at the headlines and said with a smile, "They're all foreign newspapers!"
Feng Jing nodded and said, "Yes! Yesterday, the Black Family specially sent someone to send them over. I guess the Black Group immediately released this statement after we signed the contract. "
Xia Ruofei scratched his head and said, "This bunch of big noses … They wouldn't make a few fake newspapers to fool me, right?"
Feng Jing froze for a moment. Then, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Chairman, how is that possible? These newspapers are all electronic. I specifically went to their official website to look at the electronic newspapers. They're all real. The Black Group didn't play any tricks. "
"Then they're smart!" Xia Ruofei said, "If that's the case, then I'll prepare some goods for them!"
"Anyway, you're in charge of this. I don't care so much." Feng Jing said, "Just now, I was thinking about how to keep it a secret. If there's really no other way, we can really go to the bank and rent a safety deposit box. If someone accidentally sees it and spreads it, then we'll be breaching the contract."
Xia Ruofei thought for a moment and said, "Leave it to me! I'll take good care of it. "
"That's great. I was worried about this hot potato!" Feng Jing didn't say anything and handed the contract and the supplementary agreement to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei was naturally going to put them in the Ring-Tu space when he went back. Which bank's safety deposit box in the world was as safe and convenient as the Ring-Tu space?
"Everything else is normal, right?" Xia Ruofei asked.
"Everything is normal!" Feng Jing asked with a smile, "Chairman, do you feel that you don't have a sense of accomplishment? You've been away from the company for so many days, but it seems that the company's operations are no different from before … "
Xia Ruofei glanced at Feng Jing and said, "Manager Feng, if you weren't so sharp-tongued, we could still be good friends …"
Feng Jing couldn't help but giggle.
After joking, Feng Jing quickly returned to the topic and said, "Chairman, there's something else I need to report to you."
"What's the matter?"
Feng Jing said, "Yesterday, the boss of Bojun Real Estate, Wang Dongliang, contacted me …"
"Bojun Real Estate?" Xia Ruofei thought for a long time and asked with uncertainty, "You mean the owners of the first to ninth floors of our headquarters building?"
"Yes! Our new headquarters has already started the renovation. Bojun Real Estate is just below our building. Manager Wang just found out that the upper floors had changed owners, "Feng Jing said.
"Then he called you …" Xia Ruofei pondered for a moment and continued, "Could it be that he wants us to take over the remaining nine floors?"
Xia Ruofei vaguely remembered that when Feng Jing recommended this building to him, she seemed to have said that Bojun Real Estate's capital chain seemed to be unstable. At that time, Feng Jing had taken this as a favorable condition. After all, if Bojun Real Estate's management wasn't good, it was very likely that they would sell these properties.
At that time, the entire building could be under the name of the Taoyuan Company. They could even rename the building "Taoyuan Building," and no one would object.
Feng Jing nodded and said, "Manager Wang has this intention. He beat around the bush for a long time and said a lot of off-topic things. In the end, he hinted that he wanted to sell these properties and asked if we were interested in taking over."
