Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 1742 Family dinner?
"Yiyuan Ranch has launched a corresponding project in Central Asia. If you want to do it, I will ask the project manager to come and show you. The price of licorice has been very high in recent years. In addition, in an aging society, people's life expectancy is getting longer and longer, and there will be more and more people suffering from asthma. You can try this project."

When Ji Donglai heard Qiu Haitang talking about the sandy land, combined with the local sunlight and rainfall, the corresponding project in Yiyuan Ranch immediately appeared in his mind, and Qiu Haitang's eyes lit up.

Although the other party didn't know much about Chinese medicinal herb planting, he knew about licorice. The old man at home would use it to make tea when he had nothing to do, and it had a good effect in suppressing cough all year round.

"That's great, brother-in-law, you always give us the best advice. We have prepared a welcoming banquet tonight to reward our think tank..."

Once he really gets the corresponding project, Qiu Haitang’s subsequent difficulties will basically be solved.

As for the purchase of medicinal materials, Ji Donglai’s Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing can do the purchasing on your behalf.

When Yiyuan Medical was in hand, Ji Donglai could use it at will. Purchasing licorice and other things from Afghanistan could be almost consumed on the spot. Now, domestically, Ji Donglai's subordinates are discussing with YD Group to build a joint company to build a pharmaceutical factory.

Once all these things are in place, Ji Donglai is ready to enter the field of traditional Chinese medicine. Ji Liang now has a lot of talented people under him, and he and Gu Qin are living a colorful life.

The only drawback is that it is difficult to obtain a domestic license, the road to entering the Western medicine industry is too narrow, and traditional Chinese medicine requires a decent national medicine prescription.

Moreover, even if there is a prescription for this, it is still difficult to fight your way out by blood.

"Hey, the three of you are living together? Why didn't you call me?"

For the so-called welcoming banquet in the evening, Ji Donglai did not let Qiu Haitang make it too big. He just found a small place in the county town, and the three of them plus Ran Bo and several bodyguards set up two tables.

As a result, just as the meal started, Qiu Ranran appeared out of nowhere. She was wearing an imported cashmere coat and had the elegance of a professional woman. When she entered the box, she overwhelmed Qiu Haitang.

"Sister, you are talking nonsense again. We are together, but you always barge in without even saying hello!"

After being left there by Qiu Ranran's words, Qiu Haitang quickly scolded her and hung up the package for Qiu Ranran.

"Mr. Qiu, how about you get a divorce and I marry you directly? It just so happens that you are familiar with my son, and Zhensheng calls him mom!"

Facing the female bandit Qiu Ranran, Ji Donglai was so familiar with her that he dared to make any joke. Ji Zhensheng covered his mouth and laughed, with crescents in his little eyes.

"aunt!"

"The child is sensible. This father is a piece of shit! Aren't they divorced? He also wants to expose Gu and Huang the couple. By then, all of us in the Qiu family will become divorced women. Are you happy? Bad seed... Zhensheng, don't learn from your father. This is a gift for you. In the future, spend more time with Haitang. Your father is not a good person..."

After taking a quick glance at the blushing Qiu Haitang, Qiu Ranran brought the topic to the child. Ji Zhensheng immediately took the gift, his eyes full of love, and hugged Qiu Ranran close to him.

Because of Qiu Ranran, the banquet, which originally had no alcohol, was immediately served with Langjiu, paired with a dozen imported beers, and seafood was added to the dishes, and the banquet immediately changed.

"Mr. Ji, please give me the rebar you pulled from the overseas islands. I can just deliver it to the surrounding construction sites. We are all familiar with each other, so please give me a discount on the steel price." "The steel from the EU is too expensive. I have tested the quality of your steel and it meets EU standards. You can just make some prefabricated parts for me. The labor cost for construction abroad is too high, and the efficiency is very poor."

"We have Chinese companies that don't use theirs. We have some engineering equipment. You can temporarily help me assemble some. We will definitely not lose money to your company from the money we save, right?"

After a round of drinking, Qiu Ranran finally got to the point. Qiu Haitang rolled her eyes and thought to herself that she had finally managed to have a warm banquet, but as soon as her sister came, it would inevitably turn into a commercial affair, which was boring.

Ji Zhensheng saw that Qiu Haitang was unhappy, and hurriedly peeled Arctic shrimp for Qiu Haitang.

"Sure, Mr. Qiu, please give us some of the scrapped engineering vehicles that you imported from China. I mean those from other places, such as Afghanistan, several countries in Central Asia, and Russia. We also need them now. We can repair and refurbish them. By the way, the crisis is about to come, and the price of domestic steel will also drop significantly. You may want to pay attention to it."

"Our chief economist predicts that it will take seven or eight years to recover, so steel prices will not continue to be high. Mr. Qiu will buy some from us first, and then wait for a while and export from China. If the volume is large, the price should be acceptable."

Thinking of the upcoming economic crisis, Ji Donglai said it seemingly unintentionally, and Qiu Ranran was stunned.

I just finished a meeting these few days ago, and Ji Donglai actually knew the general situation. My admiration for Ji Donglai increased a little more.

"Ji Donglai, this is your judgment, right? I heard that you have the final say in Yiyuan Zhizao, and no matter how powerful your subordinates are, they will all obey you."

"How do you know that the economic situation will be like this? Is it true that it will be like this just because a new country is established?"

After pouring a glass of juice for Begonia, Qiu Ranran stared into Ji Donglai's eyes, her eyes full of anticipation.

"It's just the objective law of economic development. It will be the same no matter who comes to power. What do you mean by 76 years old and setting an example for the world? Everyone has to work hard. It's all an illusion."

"The founding of the country was just an executor. During the subprime mortgage crisis, many financial institutions on Wall Street went bankrupt. The black president had to lend a lot of money to the financial institutions on Wall Street to tide them over the crisis."

"This money should have been returned to the manufacturing industry to increase employment in the United States. Unfortunately, in order to save their own jobs, financial institutions invested all the money in futures, driving up the prices of bulk industrial and agricultural products and passing the crisis on."

"Giving you subsidies every month is just a temporary solution, and it cannot fundamentally solve the problem. So we must rebuild the U.S. manufacturing industry, and then continue to push forward the policies that the black president has implemented halfway, just like when Roosevelt took over Hoover's policies."

"The founding principle is simple: to reshape the United States into a manufacturing powerhouse. To transform from a product importing country to an exporting country, a large number of U.S.-funded enterprises must return to domestic operations, and the domestic demand for raw materials will decrease."

Having said that, Ji Donglai did not continue speaking, because some of the content was too sensitive. If he really continued, people would suspect that he had read the document.

National policies must continue to change with the development of the times. It is impossible to remain unchanged.

Qiu Ranran and his gang were the first ones who could feel the national policy. As a private enterprise, Ji Donglai said so much at once, which could easily arouse suspicion... Especially the relationship between Ji Donglai and the Hu family, which could easily arouse people's imagination.
