""Brother Zhao, I'll leave that matter in your hands," Xiao Han smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing," Zhao Lizhong shook his head and then said, "It's my job, and it's my duty."
After talking for a long ti in the office, Xiao Han left.
Zhao Lizhong got to work, and within a few days, Hann Mining Company had been registered. Following closely was Hann Trading Company.
The two companies were registered almost simultaneously. As for the office location, it was situated above Hann Catering. Now, in University Town, Hann Restaurant was not just any ordinary establishnt, having rged with the previous Yujian Restaurant, the two caterings beca one and ford a dining building with an area of over one thousand square ters. The first floor was the hall, the second floor had private rooms, and the third floor was the office space.
To facilitate the office work of the two companies, Zhao Lizhong simply added a staircase at the back of the restaurant. This way, he could avoid the trouble of having to enter the companies through the dining hall.
Having the companies registered by Zhao Lizhong, with the help of interdiaries, made everything much simpler.
The two companies were quickly established.
Mo Shaocong also promptly sent soone to deliver the mine's property rights and mining certificates. What kind of person was Mo Shaocong? He was soone who had connections everywhere in the provincial city; after all, his father was the head of the Provincial Committee. A single word from him would have others scurrying to carry out his wishes.
With the property rights of the mine in hand, Zhao Lizhong imdiately took out a loan through the bank. He directly secured fifty million.
Having money makes things easier. Zhao Lizhong, being busy handling many tasks, started by recruiting people. He needed a team that not only understood mining operations but also knew about international trade since the mineral products were to be exported abroad. Zhao Lizhong planned to fly to Japan in a few days, as he had a classmate working at a trading company there, who could help him contact potential business partners. Japan had a large demand for minerals, especially non-ferrous tals, which they liked even more, and, moreover, the purchase price they offered was much higher than dostic prices.
......
Xiao Han was the epito of a hands-off boss, living a carefree life at school. He left all Hann work to Zhao Lizhong. The catering side was managed by Yang Lu. As for the Hann Training Class and Hann Technology, they were under the responsibility of Li Dapang. Everyone had their own duties. Xiao Han appeared to have nothing to do.
However, Xiao Han's peaceful days seed to be coming to an end soon.
On the Wednesday of the third week after the sester started.
The bell for the end of class rang.
As Xiao Han stepped out of the classroom, he encountered soone, a familiar face. When this person saw Xiao Han, a smile full of affection spread across his face.
"Xiao Han, long ti no see!" Chen Aiguo chuckled with a grin, clad in a black leather jacket and wearing shiny leather shoes. His lips curved into a smile before he said, "What's the matter? You're staring at as if you haven't seen in a long ti and have missed dearly, haven't you?"
"I..." Xiao Han was montarily stunned.
Truthfully, the mont Xiao Han saw Chen Aiguo, an idea popped into his head. Chen Aiguo must have co for the matter he had ntioned at the end of last term. Xiao Han chuckled sheepishly, playing dumb, "Principal, what brings you to ?"
"Smart alec, don't try to play dumb with ," Chen Aiguo disparagingly retorted, then warned, "I'm warning you, don't pull that act on ."
"Eh..." Xiao Han paused, slightly embarrassed, "Principal, how am I playing dumb?"
"Have you forgotten what you promised last year?" Chen Aiguo squinted his eyes.
"I... I rember!" Xiao Han quickly nodded, then said, "It's about the national university student championship, right?"
"Right!" Chen Aiguo imdiately nodded, then said, "I've already registered you, you'll take it from here."
"I..." Xiao Han hesitated and then said, "Just registered?"
"Yes," Chen Aiguo nodded, "But you need to provide your ID card and a physical exam certificate. The school has already submitted the physical exam certificate on your behalf, but you need to provide the ID card!"
"This..." Xiao Han hesitated, then asked, "Can I not go?"
"No!" Chen Aiguo imdiately shook his head.
"But I don't want to go!" Xiao Han looked helplessly at Chen Aiguo and then said, "Besides, there's no benefit in going. Why should I?"
"Uhh..." Chen Aiguo hesitated for a mont, then said, "How can there be no benefit? By participating in the national championships, you can win prize money. If you co first, there's a one hundred thousand yuan prize, and a gold dal to boot."
"I'm not interested!" Xiao Han shook his head.
Cough cough...
Chen Aiguo coughed dryly, "You're not interested?"
"Right, not interested!" Xiao Han shook his head again.
```
"Alright then!" Chen Aiguo nodded and said, "I won't force you. I'm never the type to make things difficult for others. Especially you, after all, you are the top student in the college entrance examination, you are the star of our school. If you go out and expose that I forced you to participate in the championship, then I would beco the sinner!"
```
"Uh..." Xiao Han was stunned for a mont, then said, "Principal, you don't have any sches, do you?"
"Sches?" Chen Aiguo hesitated, then said, "I'm not that kind of person. I'll go write an announcent."
"What announcent?" Xiao Han asked confusedly.
"The school prohibits teacher-student relationships. Furthermore, Lan Yudie is relieved of her position as the class advisor for the first Finance Departnt. As for student Xiao Han..." Chen Aiguo said, grinning, then gave Xiao Han a malicious glance and continued, "An internal warning, placed on school probation, and if there's a next ti, expulsion!"
While speaking, Chen Aiguo appeared very serious and solemn.
"Uh..." Xiao Han was dumbfounded. After a long while, he stared at Chen Aiguo in bewildernt and said, "Principal, you... you're actually so shaless!"
"I am not shaless!" Chen Aiguo shook his head and then said, "This is a legitimate use of the principal's authority. You can't call shaless because of this."
"You're threatening ," Xiao Han said helplessly to Chen Aiguo.
If Chen Aiguo targeted only him it would be one thing, but he had to go after Lan Yudie. Not only did he remove Lan Yudie's position as class advisor, but he also affected the possibility of Lan Yudie joining the Party. Therefore, Xiao Han couldn't let this affect Lan Yudie's life.
"I'm not threatening you," Chen Aiguo shook his head and said, "Your teacher-student relationship with Lan Yudie is known to everyone. I've been tolerant of you before, but that doesn't an I can tolerate you in the future, right?"
With that, Chen Aiguo turned and left.
Xiao Han's mouth twitched into a smirk, he chuckled and then said, "Alright, you win."
"So are you agreeing or not?" Chen Aiguo stopped, pretending to be nonchalant and asked.
"With you being like this, can I not agree?" Xiao Han looked at Chen Aiguo, his eyes revealing scorn.
"Ha ha..." Upon hearing that, Chen Aiguo burst out laughing imdiately and said, "I knew you would agree. Xiao Han, you better bring honor to our school this ti. Otherwise, you would be letting down my kindness!"
"I don't care for it!" Xiao Han shook his head.
After saying that, he turned and left.
Chen Aiguo watched Xiao Han walk away, with a sinister smirk curling up at the corner of his mouth. To get Xiao Han to replace the school in the national college students' championship, he had gone to great lengths, even resorting to such despicable tactics. Of course, if Xiao Han truly refused, Chen Aiguo would definitely not remove Lan Yudie from her position, nor would he issue any announcent. His words were nothing more than a joke.
Xiao Han also knew that Chen Aiguo was joking. He agreed because of the favor Chen Aiguo had done for him in the past. Chen Aiguo had helped him several tis, and regarding his relationship with Lan Yudie, Chen Aiguo had not cracked under the pressure from the school, on the contrary, the school appeared very magnanimous.
"What?" Liu Bin looked at Xiao Han in astonishnt and said, "You're going to represent the school in the national college students' championship?"
"Yes!" Xiao Han nodded.
"Aweso!" Upon hearing this, Liu Bin exclaid in surprise, "I heard that this year's college student championship is being held in our provincial city. They even built a new sports hall. It's completed and seems to be in use already."
"Really?" Xiao Han said upon hearing this, "That's also good. It's more convenient being in the provincial city. If it were out of town, it would be more troubleso."
"That's exactly why Chen Aiguo is hoping to win so dals since it's on our ho turf!" Liu Bin chuckled and said, "After all, being the host, if you don't win so dals, it would be embarrassing."
After thinking for a long ti, Xiao Han's lips curved into a smile.
"What you said makes sense!" Xiao Han nodded and said, "The dals are definitely ours."
"That's not certain!" At this point, Liu Bin hastily shook his head and said, "Do you think the other competitors are weak? Let tell you, this is the national college sports et; there are so many strong participants, and the most important thing is, there seem to be quite a few foreigners. Who can compete with black athletes in the sprint events?"
"Uh..." Xiao Han was montarily stunned.
"Heh heh..." Liu Bin chuckled and said, "Do you still rember the Sprint King from the Physical Education Departnt who was defeated by you?"
"Rember!" Xiao Han nodded and said, "You're talking about Tao Jun, right?"
"Yes!" Liu Bin nodded and said, "Our school's most incredible Sprint King from the Physical Education Departnt thought he was unbeatable. Last year, when he participated in the national college sports et, it was said that the entire faculty and student body believed he would bring back a dal. To everyone's surprise, the guy didn't even make it to the finals. It was a total disgrace."
"Are they all that strong?" Xiao Han couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Exactly!" Liu Bin nodded and said, "I saw it on the national college student forum; there's no record of it on the school's forum."
Xiao Han was inwardly surprised. He hadn't expected there to be so many experts at the national college student championship, and most importantly, there were so foreign aids as well, like international students from abroad. These people were very capable, and to compete with them would likely be quite difficult.
