664: Chapter 314: Admitting the Mistake Has Co_1 664: Chapter 314: Admitting the Mistake Has Co_1 When the two of them got ho and discussed the Hong Kong matter with Yanfei’s father, he slapped his thigh after so thought, “This could work.
An inco of over a million a month, that’s over ten million in a year.
In our county, there are not many businesses that can earn over ten million a year.
Who needs foreign investnt?
With this contract, no matter who brings it up, they won’t have any say in the matter!
But doesn’t this involve confidentiality?”
“That doesn’t matter!” Yan Fei didn’t care at all.
“It was not compulsory to keep it confidential.
They were just worried that I might sell beef to their competitors.
I always thought that displaying this contract might attract unnecessary attention.
But now, it’s useful, and I’m not afraid of people knowing.
Besides, sooner or later they will start taking the beef, it won’t stay a secret for long.”
“It’s still better to keep it discreet.
How about this, you can go and give Secretary Jiao a heads up, just let him know.
As for the village side, apart from Mayor Chen, the others don’t need to know, delay as long as possible,” said Yanfei’s father in deep thought.
“Don’t ntion the foreign investnt to Secretary Jiao yet as the news from the city is still uncertain, we overheard it.
For now just give Secretary Jiao a heads up so he can prepare.
So that when it cos, he is not caught off guard…”
If a company could have an inco of over ten million dollars a year and not be lacking in funds, any investnt of a few million dollars, even if it’s foreign, wouldn’t be very appealing.
Secretary Jiao would surely be pleasantly surprised when he heard this news.
With this surprise, when the foreign investnt cos, he probably wouldn’t be too surprised.
Of course, the aning of foreign investnt is not just about the amount, there are many other related aspects, but these were not Yan Fei’s imdiate concern.
With this contract, the cattle ranch now had an excuse.
When the ti ca, Yan Fei could refuse foreign investnt, even if there’s pressure from the city, the county would have his backing: there are so many businesses that can’t pay wages, why invest in the one that doesn’t need money?
The key is that now is the best ti to bring it up, as it coincides with the crucial mont of universal celebration before the handover of Hong Kong, and Yan Fei’s cattle ranch will start supplying beef around the ti of the handover.
Even if the county wanted foreign investnt, Yan Fei could use the possible impact on beef supply as an excuse.
Then, even if the county is reluctant, they would have to support him.
Although this is a little tricky, the reason is strong enough, who will be held responsible if the beef can’t be supplied?
Just as Hong Kong was being returned, how can a company from the Mainland violate an existing contract after collecting paynt?
Who would dare to shoulder that responsibility?
Even the most obtuse person should consider the consequences of such a disgrace to the nation at a critical mont!
Yan Fei discussed a few details with his father, then headed straight to the county governnt with Xu Xiaoyan.
At the entrance, when the doorman heard that they were there to see the county party secretary, he wanted to check their identification.
The two of them ca just to have a casual talk, they didn’t carry any identification cards with them!
Yan Fei’s omnipotent broken bag, could produce things like a household registration book, disability certificate, etc.
But the problem was that before they left, Xu Xiaoyan asked him if he had brought the contract, he opened his bag and showed her, there was only one contract inside.
Now if he took out sothing else, wouldn’t that blow his cover?
Seeing that the two didn’t even have any identification, the doorman beca irked: “You should at least bring sothing!
Aren’t you making my job difficult?
You guys wait a minute, let call inside and check?
It’s almost ti to clock off, really…”
As soon as he made the call and ntioned Yan Fei’s na, there was a quick response from inside.
In no ti, a young man ca out, visibly enthusiastic upon seeing Yan Fei from afar: “Boss Yan, you’ve co!
Secretary Jiao happens to be in today, let’s go!”
After that, he imdiately said to the doorman: “I’ll take them in, Secretary Jiao is waiting in his office, they can register when they co back out!”
Having the secretary of the county party secretary speaking, the doorman had no objections.
He even feared that his attitude earlier might have offended them and with a smile said: “No rush, no rush, you two told your nas.
I’ll record them!”
As soon as they entered the office, before Secretary Jiao could ask anything, Yan Fei began to feign regret, as per his father’s instructions: “Secretary Jiao, I am here to confess my mistake!”
Secretary Jiao was taken aback: “What happened?
I heard that people from the cattle research institute went there, wasn’t everything going well?”
It was impossible to keep the cattle research institute’s visit to the ranch a secret in the village, soone would have reported it.
Yan Fei was not surprised to hear Secretary Jiao ntion it and explained: “Not about the cattle research station, it’s about sothing that happened before that!”
“What happened before?” Secretary Jiao asked curiously.
One could tell from his attitude that it wasn’t a big deal, he was very calm.
Seeing that he wasn’t concerned, Yan Fei didn’t beat around the bush and said straightaway: “There was a Hong Kong investnt delegation that visited our province a while ago, right?
I supply beef to a Western restaurant in the provincial city.
So businessn from Hong Kong who were part of the delegation dined there and thought that the beef I supplied was pretty good.
Afterwards, they ca to , visited the ranch and thought it was not bad, so we signed a contract.”
The comnt was so shaless that even Xu Xiaoyan, who was standing by, was embarrassed.
Despite the shoddiness of his cattle farm, which even the research institute folks disdain, he had the nerve to claim Hong Kong businessn found it acceptable.
Only a thick-skinned man like him, who could fend off bullets with his bare face, could say sothing like this without hesitation.
“Did they invest in you?” Secretary Jiao casually asked, likely sharing the sa suspicion as the young lady.
The cattle farm was no big deal.
When he initially led a team there, a large reason was due to Yan Fei’s new collaborative cattle farming model.
This model of enabling the rich to lead the poor to wealth might be nonexistent elsewhere, but it definitely was a first in Wan City.
Hence, Secretary Jiao, and even Secretary Zhao who was washing cups and pouring water, suspected that the Hong Kong businessn found it decent but too crude, and hence, signed a contract with so unattainable prerequisites, prompting Yan Fei to seek their support.
“It’s not investnt, it’s a supply contract!” Yan Fei corrected.
Not only did Secretary Jiao beco impatient, even Secretary Zhao, who was pouring water, spilled it out of shock.
However, at this mont, Secretary Jiao hardly cared about such details and imdiately asked Yan Fei, “Is it because you’re short of funds, or you can’t et other requirents, that you need our governnt’s support?”
To be honest, while others were eagerly waiting for Hong Kong investnt delegations, Tanghe County was rather indifferent.
No one expected anyone to invest in this desolate place, so why bother getting hopes up?
But once they heard that Hong Kong businessn signed a direct supply contract, their mood lifted a little.
With a supply contract in place, and the cattle farm not eting the standards, the county would certainly provide massive support.
Now that the whole nation was celebrating Hong Kong’s return, even if the county lacked resources, they could use this excuse to request support from the city and province.
“There’s no need for support; they have pre-paid!” Yan Fei was quite relaxed, and Secretary Jiao’s concern made him feel at ease.
“They’re the Guo family from Hong Kong.
I’m not certain how wealthy they are, but they transfer their money promptly.
The prepaynt has already co in!”
“Prepaynt?
How much?
Tell , Xiao Yan!
are you teasing ?
Can’t you spill it all at once?” Secretary Jiao beca impatient with Yan Fei’s calm attitude and directly urged him.
“It’s a month’s paynt for beef, 1.5 million!”
“What?
1.5 million?” Secretary Zhao, who had just finished pouring water but hadn’t sat down yet, couldn’t help blurting out his surprise.
“1.5 million a month?” Not only was he astonished, but Secretary Jiao also stood up from behind his desk, his face a mixture of surprise, joy, and disbelief.
Yan Fei seed nonchalant about it, but it was 1.5 million a month!
The poor Tanghe county usually pleaded with the city for poverty alleviation funds every year, yet such funds had not amounted to this much!
“This is the contract.
When they first ca, there were only a few cattle in my farm.
They urgently needed beef, so they pre-paid to buy more cattle,” Yan Fei simply handed the contract over.
Secretary Zhao took it and quickly passed it on.
While Secretary Jiao began to read the contract, Secretary Zhao gave Yan Fei a big thumbs up!
Not just a thumbs-up, but he also seed quite restless.
After flipping through the handwritten contract for a long ti, Secretary Jiao finally put it down and turned to Yan Fei, “Yan Fei!
I must say, you kept this a secret and just sprang a surprise on !
It’s a good thing I’m in good health.
If I had a heart condition or sothing, I’d need to be rushed to the hospital because of you!”
It seems this contract truly delighted Secretary Jiao, and he even started joking with Yan Fei.
Yan Fei humbly admitted his mistake: “We didn’t have any experience before.
They said it would be best to keep it a secret, so I didn’t tell anyone.
I originally ca to deliver so food to my dad today, and I told him about it.
He said our village and county have always been supportive of the cattle farm, especially you have always been supportive of .
How could I not let you know?
He insisted I co here…”
“Enough, enough, don’t be too polite.” Secretary Jiao interrupted his pretentious courtesy.
“First, tell the details behind this contract, let enjoy the mont…”
Glancing at the ti, he then said, “Let’s do this!
Don’t talk here anymore.
I’ll treat you to dinner today.
You can tell more over dinner…”
