Rebirth begins with marrying an educated youth

Chapter 680: One Hundred Million Dollars

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuanhai was also considering what to say to Boss Hua.

If I continue to be vague with him and pretend that I know nothing, it would be too confusing and would easily make him angry and turn against me.

For a pure businessman like Boss Hua, not allowing him to make more money is a deep hatred. Ji Yuanhai did not want to make an enemy of him.

But to say that it was so easy to agree to it would be too simple.

After all, once the words were spoken, Boss Hua knew valuable information.

After a moment of silence, Ji Yuanhai said, "Uncle Hua, Wangtan County is going to build an asphalt road from the Tianhe plantation to the county road, with a total length of about 20 kilometers."

"What do you think should be done?"

"I'll take care of it, okay?" Boss Hua said directly, "As long as Yuan Hai tells me the truth, I'll take care of this asphalt road!"

Nowadays, the prices of labor, sand, gravel, and asphalt are all very cheap. The cost of building a six-meter-wide road per kilometer is not too expensive. A few million yuan should be enough to build twenty kilometers.

At first glance, the price seems cheap, but that's when you compare the data given that Boss Hua and Ji Yuanhai often talk about figures in the millions or tens of millions, and even invest over 100 million in Ninghe County; but we must also understand that currently hundreds of millions of farmers in the country have an annual income of less than 200 yuan, which is just enough to get enough to eat, and workers' wages are still a few dozen yuan a month. One yuan for a meat bun is enough to feed two people, so money is still very valuable.

The reason why Boss Hua and Ji Yuanhai can talk about these things easily is because their wealth and vision have long exceeded the scope of what normal people today can reach.

It is precisely for this reason that the decision to build a 20-kilometer-long highway was made so lightly.

Seeing that Boss Hua didn't bargain at all and directly agreed to build the highway, Ji Yuanhai smiled and said, "Okay, Uncle Hua, please speak quickly. I won't keep you in suspense."

"Some things are the absolute secrets of Tianhe Company. If you tell a third person about them, I will never admit it. If anyone else tells me about it, I will be completely unaware of it."

"That's right!" Boss Hua said immediately, "I'm not stupid. If there's a chance to make money, I certainly won't say a word to anyone!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said, "That's good!"

Boss Hua was sincere, so Ji Yuanhai naturally couldn't say any more lies. Instead, he estimated it in his heart and told the truth: "Uncle Hua, the situation is like this..."

"This year, Tianhe Company signed a contract with France Company to buy and sell truffles. We expect to earn a minimum of 60 million US dollars, with each kilogram of truffles costing 500 US dollars. Only the truffles with the best size, taste and quality will be exported to France Company."

"At the same time, for every kilogram of truffles sold to France, Tianhe will give away one kilogram of truffles for free."

Boss Hua was a little surprised: "Buy one, get one free. Doesn't that mean two hundred and fifty dollars per kilogram?"

Then he suddenly realized, "That's right! You guys are going to be in the truffle business for a long time, so you can't set a low price from the beginning, you can't be lower than others! By offering a buy one get one free deal at a price of $500, you can give France Company a bigger profit, and you can also take this opportunity to open up the truffle market. This year is enough to make a name for yourself, and business will be easier in the future!"

"Yuan Hai, you are really good at business!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said, "Uncle Hua, what you said is wrong. I am just telling you about what I know about Tianhe Company. I don't do business, so this matter has nothing to do with me!"

"That's right!" Boss Hua was more concerned about profit and was too lazy to correct such unimportant details. "Yuan Hai, what I want to know most is the future profits of Tianhe Company and the future development of Wangtan County."

"Can you tell me about it?" Ji Yuanhai said directly: "Uncle Hua, think about it carefully. Haven't I already told you about the profits of Tianhe Company?"

Boss Hua thought about it carefully, and the voice on the other end of the phone trembled a little: "Buy one, get one free!"

"Yes, it's buy one get one free!" Ji Yuanhai responded.

This year, Tianhe Company is expected to make 60 million US dollars if they offer buy one get one free! Next year, if they no longer offer buy one get one free, they will make 120 million US dollars!

This amount of money is astonishing even for Boss Hua! With 120 million US dollars, there are so many things that can be done!

The excitement in Boss Hua's voice was barely concealed: "Can Tianhe Company guarantee this year's production next year? Can it make 120 million US dollars?"

Ji Yuanhai replied: "Uncle Hua, considering that you promised to build the highway, I will tell you the truth. This year, Tianhe Company can actually sell 100 million US dollars worth of truffles, and next year it can sell 200 million US dollars."

Boss Hua felt a little dumbfounded when he heard this: "One hundred million dollars this year? You're right? Didn't you say that it would only be sixty million dollars this year?"

"In June and July, we sold large, qualified truffles for 60 million U.S. dollars," Ji Yuanhai explained. "Don't forget the remaining truffles, which will continue to grow and will be sold again in the fall of this year. Adding the two together, 100 million U.S. dollars is definitely not an exaggeration."

Ji Yuanhai's words fell into Boss Hua's ears, and he murmured, "Too exaggerated! Yuanhai, your Tianhe Company is too exaggerated!"

"As long as you continue to operate for a few years, your total assets will be able to surpass mine! I have been in the business world for decades, and I can't even keep up with your speed of making money!"

He was excited and frustrated, and it was difficult for him to calm down for a while.

His final reflection was on interests, which calmed him down.

Tianhe Company is really jealous of the fact that it makes a lot of money by selling truffles to Westerners. But as a qualified businessman, what Boss Hua needs to consider most is what he can do to gain enough profit.

The development of Tianhe Company and Wangtan County is already destined for the future. What can he gain from this opportunity?

After calming down, Boss Hua said to Ji Yuanhai on the other end of the phone: "Yuanhai, can I invest in Tianhe Company? I can invest 100 million yuan, and only need to hold 20% of the shares. I will not participate in the management, but only participate in the dividends. Is that okay?"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said, “Uncle Hua, do you think we can still agree to your request when we all understand the future development and the price is almost clearly marked?”

"Fifteen percent! I can invest 150 million, and I only need 15 percent of the shares!" Boss Hua continued to make an offer.

"I'm sorry, Tianhe Company really has everything it needs. We have no funding gap and more than enough cash." Ji Yuanhai said, "Except for the 20% profit share we got in exchange with the Wangtan County Government, there is no need for us to invest in other companies."

After hearing this, Boss Hua felt heartbroken: Are we just giving away 20% of the profits?

Wangtan County is a poor place, giving half of it is too much! It’s better to let me earn the money than to give it to the local people!
"Yuan Hai, I can raise the conditions! And I can also exchange conditions with Tianhe Company!" Boss Hua said to Ji Yuan Hai.

Ji Yuanhai also became interested when he heard this: "Oh? Uncle Hua, do you have conditions for the exchange? Is it required by Tianhe Company?"
