Jiang Han continued, "All these years, we've been all over the country looking for investment opportunities. As long as we think we can try, we'll ask experts to do in-depth research. After confirming the feasibility of the investment, we'll decisively invest. In a few years, we've invested more than a billion …"
At this point, her husband coughed.
Jiang Han looked at him and said, "There's nothing that can't be told to Mr. Li. He's my benefactor and our friend."
Her husband was scolded in front of his face and blushed. He was extremely embarrassed and said embarrassedly, "I didn't say that you can't tell Mr. Li. I just suddenly … my throat is itchy."
Jiang Han ignored him and focused on Li Rui. She continued, "Of course, the investment of more than a billion won't all be profitable. There are profits and losses, but it's more or less the same. Among them, what I am most proud of is that I bought the development and management rights of a 4A level scenic spot from a city in Jiaodong Peninsula. I invested that year, and the next year, I got back my investment. This gave me a strong confidence in the tourism industry. Unfortunately, the government of that city was unreasonable. Seeing that the scenic spot started to make money after the upgrade, they thought of a way to drive me away and took back the scenic spot. However, after they took it back, the income plummeted. They didn't know what I did in the process of running the scenic spot, and they didn't know how to run it. But this also taught me a valuable lesson. When dealing with the local government, you must examine the other party's integrity. "
Li Rui nodded and said, "That's right. If the local government doesn't talk about integrity, then it's cheating the investors, and in turn, cheating themselves."
Jiang Han said, "We came to Beijing this time to participate in an international luggage and leather goods exhibition held here. It's in Area C, just across from you. We're also looking for investment opportunities. The company's vice president and sales manager are watching the exhibition, so we don't have to worry too much and can walk around. Who knew that yesterday afternoon, I suddenly fainted for some reason. When I went to the hospital, they didn't find anything wrong with me. Thank you for saving me, otherwise I might have been in danger. "
Li Rui smiled and waved his hand. "You're here again. Can we not talk about this?"
Jiang Han smiled as well and said, "Fine, let's not talk about it. Let's talk business … After hearing your description, I feel that your county's tourism resources are very rich and unique. I'm very interested in that 4A grade scenic spot of yours. I wonder if I can go take a look and observe it?"
Li Rui was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Of course, I welcome you with open arms. On behalf of more than 300,000 villagers in Shuanghe County, I would like to express the most sincere welcome to an investor like you."
At this moment, Jiang Han displayed the shrewdness of a businesswoman. She smiled and said, "What I hope to see the most is a welcome from your county government. Furthermore, it must be a sincere welcome and acceptance. I don't want to repeat the mistakes of the Jiaodong Peninsula. "
Li Rui put away his smile and said seriously, "I can now represent the Shuanghe County government to express the most sincere welcome to the two of you. Please rest assured that the county government will definitely be honest and will never cheat or exploit foreign merchants."
Jiang Han's husband asked curiously, "What qualifications do you have to represent the Shuanghe County Government?"
Jiang Han glared at him unhappily and said, "How can you talk to Mr. Li like that?"
Her husband hurriedly explained, "I don't mean anything else. I just don't understand."
Li Rui smiled and waved his hand. "It's nothing. This kind of question is actually very reasonable. Gentlemen, to be honest, I'm one of the deputy county heads of the Shuanghe County Government. I'm in charge of attracting investment. How about it? I'm qualified to represent you, right? Haha. "
There was a hint of hostility in his words because he had just heard that Jiang Han's husband was indeed a little rude to him. He didn't know whether it was because he couldn't bear to see his wife so close to another man or because he was dissatisfied with his wife's arbitrary pre-investment behavior.
Jiang Han and her husband were moved again. They looked at Li Rui in disbelief. One said, "You're a deputy county head?" The other said, "No way, how can there be such a young deputy county head?"
Li Rui didn't care about this topic. He looked at Jiang Han and said, "If you're interested in investing in my county, I can guarantee the integrity of my county's government. If anything goes wrong, you can hold me accountable."
Jiang Han acted as if she didn't hear anything. She only looked at him with a surprised expression. Her beautiful eyes blinked. Her gaze was pure, but it was full of temptation.
Jiang Han's husband spoke again. "Uh, Mr. Li, don't blame me for saying something unpleasant. Although we're friends, investing is not a small matter. Friendship has to be put aside. If something really goes wrong, we'll have to bear a huge loss. What's the point of holding you accountable? Don't say such things in the future. "
When Li Rui heard what he said, he realized that there was a big problem with his words. It was too unprofessional. He was secretly ashamed and admitted his mistake. "I was wrong. Yes, the integrity of business activities needs to be guaranteed by the spirit of the contract. How can it rely on friendship?" His heart trembled. This person seemed to be targeting him more and more. Could it be that he was too close to Jiang Han?
Jiang Han also heard the dark tone in her husband's words. She frowned and said, "Mr. Li is our friend. If he can make such a promise, he's already very kind to us. You actually want him to stand aside?"
Her husband said innocently, "Am I wrong? If you really want to invest in Shuanghe County, you'll have to deal with the county government. What does it have to do with him? Even if he's the deputy county head, he can't guarantee that the county government will not be dishonest. It's more likely if he's the county head. "
Jiang Han glared at him and ignored him. She asked Li Rui softly, "I have a preliminary idea. I want to buy the development rights of the 4A scenic spot and upgrade it. I want to upgrade it to a 5A scenic spot. After that, I want to increase its popularity through publicity. I don't know if your county government can accept this? If they can accept it, I can leave in the afternoon for the inspection. "
Li Rui thought for a moment and nodded. "No problem. This is a mutually beneficial cooperation. There's no reason for my county to reject it."
Jiang Han quickly showed her straightforward side and said, "Then when are you going back to the county? Can we go with you?"
Li Rui said, "I plan to be busy at the investment fair today. I can leave tomorrow morning. Of course, if you're in a hurry, you can rush back in the afternoon. "
Jiang Han smiled and nodded. "Okay, tomorrow morning it is. We'll go back and prepare. I'll leave you my contact details. We'll meet up tomorrow and leave together. "
The three of them stood up and shook hands. Then, Li Rui sent the two of them out of the D zone.
When the two of them were out of sight, Li Rui shouted "Oh yeah!" and waved his right fist in the air. He was very happy. This time, he had come with the sole purpose of attracting investment. Although he had humbly said to Gu Yingtong, "It would be great if we could attract one, but it wouldn't be a loss even if we couldn't." But if he really couldn't attract a single investor, he would naturally be depressed and disappointed. Now that he had finally "hooked" an investor, and one with a clear intention to invest, of course he was extremely happy. He even wanted to improvise a dance to vent his feelings, even though he didn't really know how to dance.
To buy the development rights of the Fairy Cave scenic spot, one would need at least a few hundred million yuan. That meant that once Jiang Han decided to invest, it would be a few hundred million yuan. This didn't include the cost of upgrading and remodeling. This was a great political achievement for him as the deputy county head in charge of investment. Not only would it solve his investment task this year, but it would also be a "good start" for the county's investment business this year. The benefits were huge. Just thinking about it made him excited.
"Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect such a delicate and beautiful woman to be a hidden big boss … The South is really rich. Any random boss in any city has the boldness and wealth to purchase a 4A grade scenic spot. The North's economy is still far worse than the South's!"
Li Rui sighed again and then returned to the exhibition hall. He had just entered the hall when he received a call from his new friend, Long Baoyu. When he saw his name, he felt a tingling sensation on his shoulder. It was as if his arm was around him again. He smiled bitterly and answered the call.
"Where are you? Lanshan and I are already here! "
Li Rui felt a headache coming. It can't be. This annoying young master actually came looking for him? Why did he stick to him and not let go? Did he have nothing to do all day? He sighed and said, "I'm in Zone D. You can see me when you come in, but the problem is that I need …"
Before he could finish explaining that he needed to work, the call was hung up. Young Master Long, who had a jumpy personality, didn't give him a chance to explain.
Li Rui looked at his phone helplessly and put it in his pocket. He thought to himself, "I'll go back to Shuanghe tomorrow. Let's see how you'll stick to me then. Haha!"
Five minutes later, Li Rui saw Long Baoyu and Lan Shan. Lan Shan changed her clothes again today. She wore a black tank top and a gray linen shirt. Her chest was open, and her breasts were prominent. She wore a pair of ordinary black Nike sweatpants that wrapped around her flat stomach and slender legs. On her feet was a pair of white cloth shoes that were popular in the past two years. Her overall style was casual and sporty, but she was born beautiful. Naturally, she looked beautiful no matter what she wore. Previously, Lin Ziyan had to put on meticulous makeup and dared to dress up to look like a charming beauty. However, Lan Shan was basically bare-faced today. She stood there casually and was three points prettier than Lin Ziyan. It had to be said that God was too unfair.
Lan Shan had a good impression of Li Rui. When she saw him, she stood beside him. Of course, it could be that she was purposely keeping a distance from Long Baoyu. She smiled and said, "It's not easy to find you."
