The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

The night is as cool as water, as if it were autumn.

On the third day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the first quarter moon is bent like a bow. The night sky was clear, the hazy moonlight poured down, and the whole village seemed to be coated with a faint silver glow.

Gu Jia was sitting on the stone slab at the door, and the sound of insects and dogs barking could be heard from time to time.

"Tu Tuk~"

The sound of footsteps reached Gu Jia's ears, and her shoulders sank, but Xu Huanshan walked over, put his coat on Gu Jia, sat down next to her, and said softly:

"It's cold outside, don't freeze. What are you thinking about?"

Feeling Xu Huanshan's thoughtfulness, Gu Jia felt more and more guilty. She wrapped her coat tightly around her body, and a wave of warmth rushed into her heart, dispelling the coldness on her body.

After a while, Gu Jia said:

"Let yourself be quiet for a while. I did something wrong in this matter. You said you were going to put it aside. How could I not come to conduct an on-site inspection? I was so anxious to sign the contract like a madman. It was because of Mrs. Wang She gave us a kindergarten recommendation, and Mrs. Yu gave us an order for fireworks, so I thought everything she gave us was the best. ... What you said is right, people take shortcuts. If you get used to it, there will always be a day when you fall hard."

Xu Huanshan comforted: "I know you are doing it for the good of our family."

"But I dug such a big hole..." Gu Jia curled up into a ball and said harshly.

Xu Huanshan said: "But you still want to fill it in and don't want to withdraw, right?"

Seeing Gu Jia looking like he was being talked about, Xu Huanshan smiled and said, "Looking at you dragging your luggage back and seeing so many children, I knew it."

"I know that directly declaring bankruptcy now is the least risk and loss to our family...,"

Gu Jia thought for a while and then said what was in her heart. What she saw and heard today really touched her. She paused and said slowly:

"But I went to the tea mountain today, saw those children, saw them..., I've seen it, I've seen it, I really can't convince myself to close the factory and leave immediately."

"Hi~,"

Xu Huanshan understood Gu Jia's mood. He was really sad when he saw the children picking tea today, and wanted to do something for this remote mountain village.

"Isn't it just a mortgage on the house? Anyway, our house has been mortgaged before and it doesn't matter again. We don't have to worry about the debt. When the paradise business becomes stable and the money is available, redemption will not be a problem."

"What if it fails?" Gu Jia hesitated.

"No matter what happens, my wife can do anything." Xu Huanshan hugged Gu Jia into his arms and said with a smile: "Don't you still have me?...I don't do design, so I'll take care of all the packaging for your tea garden. ah."

Gu Jia's heart felt warm. She looked at Xu Huanshan's lips raised and whispered softly, "Do you mean what you say?"

"count!"

Looking at Gu Jia nestled in his arms, Xu Huanshan said: "If you want to mortgage the house, do you want to tell Huawei and mortgage the house with him? Anyway, I owed him so much money before, so I don't have to worry about anything. , with a collateral in hand, he felt at ease."

"Is the mortgage with Huawei?" Gu Jia thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's go back and talk to him. He should agree. I'll talk to him when I get back. If possible, I'd like to ask him He borrowed more money.”

"I guess he will borrow the money, but we'd better get it one at a time." Xu Huanshan hesitated for a while and said: "After all, our friendship with him is not that deep. If we borrow too much, he will not meeting……,"

"Don't worry, husband." Gu Jia smiled and said, "I can carry it carefully and it won't exceed the value of the house."

After a pause, Gu Jia continued: "I have roughly reviewed the situation of the tea factory in the past two days. Now the tea factory is made by old masters who manually fry tea. It has not yet reached standardized production, the equipment is old, and the workers are scattered. Basically, we rely on the weather to make ends meet, and have yet to achieve a unified production plan and stable sales model.”

"Then what you said," Xu Huanshan frowned and said, "It's a pile of loose sand now? Can you still carry it?"

“There are also good places,”

Gu Jia smiled, rubbed Xu Huanshan's shoulder and said:

“There is no overdevelopment here, the people are honest, the environment is really good, there is no pollution at all, and the most important and original hand-picking and planting techniques have not been lost.

I have been thinking about the sales plan carefully in the past two days. I want to ask my former colleagues to come over and help me make a beautiful presentation. If Huawei cannot do it, I can go to the market to try to get some investment. I must build this tea factory! "

Xu Huanshan patted Gu Jia's back gently and said with a smile: "How come I suddenly feel like I was in the same state seven or eight years ago when you first said you wanted to open a fireworks company...It's exactly the same as now!"

"It's different," Gu Jia said with a slight smile, "I'm more mature and confident than then."

Looking at Gu Jia who had regained her confidence again, Xu Huanshan smiled and said: "Of course, my wife is the best!!"

Gu Jia smiled and said, "Well, let's go back after I sort out the information and make a new copy. I'll go talk to Huawei about the mortgage of the house."

Xu Huanshan knew that Gu Jia was concerned about his own face, so he nodded immediately.

...............

Magic City, Junyue Mansion, 1901.

When Gu Jia stood at the door again, she was in a trance for a moment. The last time I came here was half a month ago, but it felt like it had been different for years. Before she could knock on the door, the door opened automatically.

"Gu Jia is here?"

Aunt Liu was standing at the entrance, looking at Gu Jia with a kind face. She took out a pair of slippers from the closet nearby and placed them at Gu Jia's feet:

"Come on, please come in."

"Thank you Aunt Liu."

Gu Jia nodded her thanks and glanced around the living room. There was no one in the living room, so she handed the gift box in her hand to Aunt Liu and said with a smile: "Aunt Liu, this is tea from my own tea factory, and I roasted it myself." The tea is specially brought here, please try it and give me some opinions."

"My child, you are interested." Aunt Liu did not refuse, took the gift box and said with a smile: "I don't know how to drink tea. I will make some for you in a while."

"Huawei, come out quickly, Gu Jia is here~," Aunt Liu walked to the kitchen with the gift box and shouted towards the study as she walked.

"Tread~"

"Sister-in-law is here, sit down."

Yi Huawei, dressed in a black casual suit, walked out of the study room, smiled and waved to Gu Jia: "Where's Brother Xu?" "Huan Shan went to the company." Gu Jia smiled and walked to the guest seat aside. He sat down and said, "I just came back. There are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the company, so I didn't come together. By the way, Huanshan asked me to invite you to dinner at home in the evening. In addition to you, I also invited a few friends. , you’ve seen it all.”

"Oh..., okay," Yi Huawei nodded and said with a smile, "It's like you two are on a honeymoon. I thought you were reluctant to come back."

"You're joking," Gu Jia shook his head and sighed: "We were still on our honeymoon, and I almost got mad to death."

Yi Huawei understood and said, "I inquired about your tea factory. It was Mrs. Li and the others who did it unkindly."

"It's also my fault that I don't know people well and trust them too easily." Speaking of this, Gu Jia felt a little embarrassed.

"Actually, I asked a lawyer about this," Yi Huawei smiled and said, "When you signed the contract with Mrs. Li, the tea factory had actually suffered serious losses, the valuation value was false, and it was involved in two prosecution cases. The tea factory is completely unable to operate and the intended contractual purposes cannot be achieved.”

After a pause, Yi Huawei continued: "The lawyer's advice to me is that if the subject matter has major defects, you can claim to terminate the contract and demand compensation for losses or continue to perform the contract and make up for the defects, or you can use Mrs. Li's fraudulent behavior And they claim that the contract is invalid. I don’t know what my sister-in-law means? Is she going to file a lawsuit with Mrs. Li... or? "

"...,"

Looking at Yi Huawei's concerned eyes, Gu Jia's heart trembled, and an inexplicable feeling came to his heart. He didn't dare to think too much, and calmed down, as if he was deep in thought. After a while, Gu Jia finally said:

"Thank you... However, I still decided to continue doing it, not just to make money. This time I went to Xiangxi to find out... Therefore, I have to take over this tea factory. First of all, it is to help. Those children, secondly, also want to prove that it is not that the tea factory is not good, but that Mrs. Li does not know how to run it."

Gu Jia has calculated that if he files a lawsuit, he should have a high chance of winning, but the energy and expenditure during the period will be quite large. After all, it is better to sell the tea factory directly. It's not worth it just to let out a sigh of relief. Besides, even if she wins the lawsuit, Mrs. Li will definitely close the tea factory. When the time comes, Mrs. Li will not care whether those villagers live or not.

"Come on, have some tea."

While talking, Aunt Liu came over with a tea tray and placed it on the coffee table: "Hua Wei, try it. Gu Jia said this is the tea she roasted herself."

"Let me have a taste." Holding the tea cup in his palm, Yi Huawei took a sip. The faint bitter fragrance lingered in his nose and throat, and a warm current flowed into his belly. The fragrance lingered on his cheeks and teeth for a moment, and he suddenly smiled in surprise: "The appearance is green, the smell is fragrant, the appearance is straight, the color is dark green and oily, the soup is bright yellow, and the taste is fresh and sweet. This tea is good. Is it fried by my sister-in-law?"

"Well, yes." Gu Jia saw this and smiled: "I fried it myself under the guidance of the master. Look, how does this tea compare to ordinary tea?"

"Haha~," Yi Huawei smiled: "Sister-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."

"Ahem~, Huawei, let me tell you straight. The main purpose of coming here today is... I want to borrow some more money from you..." Looking at Yi Huawei's half-smiling eyes, Gu Jia's face flashed Hong smiled and said:

"I want to borrow money from you again to keep the tea factory running. I have been in Chashan for a few days and have carefully investigated the tea market and done data analysis. There is still a blue ocean of brands in the mid-to-high-end tea market, and there are many in China. Tea can be produced anywhere, but most of them are supplied to a few well-known tea merchants. There are indeed very few independent brands like our tea factory. At that time, I was particularly confident that we could quickly open up this market before launching publicity, because Our tea is really good.”

"The aroma of wine is afraid of the deep alley," Yi Huawei smiled: "Do you know how much promotion fees it would cost to build a tea brand? According to you, your tea is pollution-free and handmade. This means that your tea production volume is low and the cost is high. If you apply for the organic label again, have you calculated how much it will cost? How long will it take to pay back the money?"

Seeing that Yi Huawei did not refuse directly, Gu Jia was convinced. He took out his mobile phone and slid open the interface, handed it to Yi Huawei and said, "I position our tea as mid-to-high-end, because its quality is no lower than those brands. Moreover, I have been prepared for the long term... I was too eager for quick success before.

You see, these photos were taken casually with my mobile phone. They are not professional and not clear, but it is these pictures that moved me. We now live in the most prosperous and convenient first-tier metropolis, and we may occasionally see photos like this. That is, when I was swiping my phone, maybe it was in a certain news picture, but I went to live with them in person for half a month, and I also felt the restrictions brought by the environment...,"

"etc…,"

Yi Huawei waved his hand and said with a smile: "Do you think of me as one of those investment companies? Are you here to tell me a story?"

"Sorry, I just said it smoothly..."

Gu Jia smiled shyly:

"Actually, before I came to you, I went to several investment companies, and they all said that my project didn't have any highlights. But I'm not telling stories. This is all my personal experience. Our tea factory uses the most primitive planting methods. With technology and the most honest people.

It is said that love comes from the heart, and tea comes from the heart. Non-adulteration is the most valuable quality in this era. You also know what happened to me before... It was also because of going to this mountain that I returned to my original intention. I really want to make this tea factory a success. If you are willing to invest in me, I can minimize my profit margin. I don’t want to make much money from this project. I know that in the eyes of those investors, this is just a money-making project, but as for me, I just want those children in the mountains to have food to eat and something to rely on. "

"Very good, my sister-in-law is really kind-hearted." Yi Huawei smiled and said, "Forget about the investment, even if I borrow it from you, you can calculate the total and see how much is left."

"I did some calculations and found that there is still a shortfall of about three million." Gu Jia said: "I discussed with Huan Shan and borrowed three million from you before, adding up to six million. But don't worry, we will The real estate certificate is mortgaged with you. It’s a guarantee.”

"..." Yi Huawei originally wanted to refuse, but then he thought about it and said, "Well, I'll lend you another five million, and the interest will still be calculated according to the bank."

"Thank you so much." Gu Jia said with sincere gratitude. As he spoke, he took out the real estate certificate from his bag and put it on the coffee table. He also took out a written IOU and handed it to Yi Huawei: "Just sign it."

"It seems that you have been prepared for a long time," Yi Huawei smiled: "However, in this case, you have no way out. Is it worth it? If there is an eventuality, the hard work of the two of you over the past few years will But it was all in vain.”

"It's worth it, not just for my family, I will definitely make the tea factory a good job." Gu Jia nodded firmly.

"Okay," Yi Huawei took the paper, wrote his name on the IOU, and handed it back to Gu Jia: "I'll forward it to you later."

After a pause, Yi Huawei said: "By the way, Shen Jie's court session is next week, will you go then?"

"I may not have time," Gu Jia was stunned, and then said, "Huan Shan will go with you then."

"That's fine," Yi Huawei nodded: "I'll call him then."

"Yeah!" Gu Jia nodded and looked at his watch: "Then I'll take my leave now. I'll remember to come down for dinner later."

"Aren't you going together?" Yi Huawei was stunned for a moment.

"I still have something to do," Gu Jia pointed to the ceiling and gritted his teeth: "I heard from Mrs. Wang today that they are having a party. I'll go check it out. I'll call you when it's almost done."

"Oh? What are you going to do? Don't be impulsive," Yi Huawei raised his brows and said slowly, "Do you want me to accompany you up?"

"No need, I'll handle my own affairs myself." Gu Jia shook his head: "Don't worry, it's just a matter of a few words."

"That's fine, just call me if you need anything." Yi Huawei said nothing more. He was not interested in the woman's quarrel with her. He just wanted to talk to her and couldn't fight.
