Happy Shennong

Chapter 149
Not to mention the price of at least tens of thousands of yuan, Zhong Wanlong's kindness alone should be remembered as a great favor.

As for Zhong Wanlong, he didn't give him a chance to refuse or be courteous. He directly asked the workers to move the Pixiu to the two sides of the gate and put it away. Pixiu is ready."

"No problem." Linley nodded, "If I'm grateful, I won't say more. Uncle Zhong, please sit in the room."

Zhong Wanlong stepped aside with a smile, Zhao Yongan came forward again, and said helplessly, "Xiao Lei, I can't compare to Boss Zhong, and I can't come up with a decent gift. But it's really embarrassing for such a big happy event to come empty-handed. After thinking about it, I decided to send you a few words, which is inappropriate, so don't call me stingy."

"Where is Director Zhao?" Linley waved his hands and said, "I am grateful that you can take time out of your busy schedule to come and guide me."

Zhao Yongan beckoned, and immediately two young men came over carrying a plaque covered with red cloth.

Zhong Wanlong came over again and said to Lin Lei: "Xiao Lei, you may not know that Director Zhao is the vice president of the Calligraphy Association of this city and a member of the Provincial Calligraphy Association. His calligraphy works are not very popular, so please take care of him. Collect it, and it will definitely increase in value in the future. How high it can be raised, I can’t make a conclusion. But I can guarantee one thing, if you have to use vulgar prices to measure it, the current value of Mr. Zhao’s calligraphy is worthless. It is much taller than the pair of Pixiu that the old man gave me!"

"Even if Director Zhao is not a calligrapher, I will treasure it as a treasure if I write a few words casually. Besides, this is the work of Director Zhao with all his heart, and I will definitely keep it safe!"

Zhao Yongan waved his hand: "I just like this, and I paint a few strokes when I have time. I give you this work mainly as a sign of auspiciousness. Xiaolei, you are indeed worthy of the word 'Eagle Spreading its Wings'. I hope You can make persistent efforts, create greater glories, and fully display the demeanor of young people back then!"

"Thank you Director Zhao, I will work hard and not let you down!"

Linley took the plaque himself, and Ma Kui took it again with a smile, and carefully moved it into the house.

Chen Weimin also stepped forward, asked someone to bring a large potted bamboo plant, and said to Lin Lei: "Xiao Lei, this is a pot of Buddha belly bamboo that I cultivated myself, because the one in the middle grows the most vigorously, so I named it 'One Thriving Beauty'. And you, the one who stands out among the younger generation, are very suitable for this potted plant. I will give it to you on this big day today. It's just... I heard that you are very accomplished in the field of bonsai, so please don't laugh at me."

"Director Chen is really too polite. You are a real expert at first glance, but I am actually just a fake expert. Thank you for your appreciation and gift. Please come in and sit down. The tea has been brewed."

"You are busy first, I will walk around casually."

Linley nodded, and next, he accepted the lucky bamboo which symbolizes "every high" and a super big red envelope "all the way" from Zhong Ling.

Both Fan Haiyang and Manager Luo also presented big red envelopes that meant "booming and booming".

Anyway, these big shots didn't come empty-handed.

Zhong Ling also prepared a lot of things, calling on the workers to place a row of flower baskets on both sides of the gate, and hung two rows of large banners on the front of the roof, and finally laid out a large area of ​​firecrackers and fireworks in the yard.

At [-]:[-], Lin Lei brought Zhong Wanlong, Zhao Yongan and Chen Weimin to the door again.Because Ma Fugui said that holding the unveiling ceremony at [-]:[-] seemed auspicious.Originally, Linley was going to unveil the plaque with the village head of Youqing, but now that there are too many big names, Ma Fuyuan can no longer be in the lineup.

The four stood on both sides, holding the corner of the red cloth, everything was ready.

Liu Yuxuan took up the role of host, and after a few grand introductions, he took out his phone, looked at the stopwatch, and shouted excitedly: "The countdown to the unveiling, five...four...three...two...one!"

As soon as the words "one" fell, the four of Linley and the others gently pulled the red cloth off at the same time. The nine characters of "Baota Agricultural Products Co., Ltd." appeared, and the company's name was made public for the first time.

Linley is the name of the company, but it has consumed a lot of brain cells.When he first thought of setting up a company, he first thought of naming it after "Shennong Tower", because he relied on this to develop himself.But if you think about it carefully, using this name is too ostentatious, and it is easy to expose Shennong Pagoda, so it was finally named "Pagoda"!
Before Liu Yuxuan and others heard the name, they asked him how he came up with it.Of course he would not say that it was related to Shennong Pagoda, but only said that there is a famous Pagoda Mountain in Qingyun, and he just used the name of the mountain.

Next, the word "Limited Company" is also a lot of trouble.

Linley originally wanted to set up a sole proprietorship company, that is, to do it by himself, without any partners or shareholders.However, the law clearly stipulates that a sole proprietorship cannot use the word "limited company".Even the word "company" cannot appear, and it can be called a certain factory, a certain center, and so on.

When Zhong Wanlong and Zhong Ling heard about this situation, they immediately stated that they could be the nominal shareholders of his company.

He later brought in Ma Fugui and Liang Jianguo, who were nominally shareholders of the company.But in fact, this company still belongs to Linley alone, and he alone has the final say.Of course, Zhong Wanlong and Zhong Ling didn't have time to help him manage the company.Ma Kui, as Ma Fugui's spokesperson, and Liu Yuxuan, Liu Jianguo's spokesperson, will still assist Lin Lei and shoulder certain responsibilities.

Therefore, even if it is investigated, there is no evidence of deceit in Linley's company.

After the unveiling ceremony, Ma Kui, Xiong Da and the others began to set off firecrackers. The countryside has this advantage. Firecrackers are not controlled. As long as they have money, they can set off firecrackers at will, which greatly enhances the lively atmosphere.

Originally, Linley just wanted to hold a simple unveiling ceremony, but with so many big names here, it couldn't be simpler, and he had to let everyone have their own tempers.He reserved the old Ma's house to entertain the guests who came to congratulate him, which is also the basic etiquette in the countryside.

Considering that Zhong Wanlong and the others are very busy, there must not be too long a delay, so Linley set up a table early.

At 11:30, he was drinking with the distinguished guests at the table. Ma Kui came over and whispered in his ear, "Brother Lei, there is another guest, but he doesn't want to come in and wants you to go."

"Since you're here, why don't you come in? Do you know who is here?" Linley asked suspiciously.

"I don't know him. He said his surname is Niu, and he was traveling in a black commercial vehicle."

Linley immediately understood, apologized to the guests, and came to the side of the road.Niu Tiannan was the only person he knew with the surname Niu.After seeing the car, I was sure of it.

Seeing that the car door was ajar, Linley walked over, pointed his head to Niu Tiannan who was inside the car, and said, "Boss Niu, we are already at the door, why don't you go in and sit for a while?"

"No, if you have time, come up and sit for a while." Niu Tiannan shook his head with a bitter face, "Boss Zhong is at your house, right? Although he and I have no enmity, there is still some tension between our two groups." It's a festival, it's inevitable to be embarrassed when we meet. The most important thing is that I don't want him to see my jokes."

"Hiss..." Linley was curious, got into the car and sat down and asked, "Mr. Niu, why are you joking? Also, you seem to be in a low mood today. What happened?"

Niu Tiannan smiled wryly: "Actually, I... am no longer the vice president."

"What? Judging from the structure of Shunchang Group, except for the Zhu Brothers, everyone else has reached the peak of being a vice president. You are no longer a vice president. Are you downgraded?"

"I'm just the head of the marketing department now."

Linley was astonished and said, "Really downgraded? Niu...Minister, what's going on?"

"Hey, it's a long story..." Niu Tiannan took out a cigarette, handed one to Linley, and lit one himself.He has never smoked, but recently fell in love with the feeling of smoking.

After taking a few puffs of cigarettes, Niu Tiannan's mood improved a bit, and he said in detail: "Maybe this is fate. I think back then, when I first joined Shunchang Group, I worked in the marketing department. At that time, the group was in the city's The market share is only 30.00%, and the average annual growth rate is about [-]%. Although there is still some growth, the annual investment of the group is also gradually increasing. The net income has not actually increased. Said to have been walking in place."

"Then it's time for you to flex your muscles?"

"Although it was very difficult, I still helped the marketing department to increase the market share to 50.00% in three years. Until then, I was only promoted once, and I was only the deputy director of the marketing department. Hu Minghan, who has been doing nothing , that is, Zhu Renshun's brother-in-law, but he is still sitting firmly in the minister's position."

"It seems that in Zhu Renshun's heart, the friendship between friends is not as good as family love after all."

"Who said it wasn't? Two years later, I helped the group get a 60.00% share. At that time, my popularity far surpassed that of Hu Minghan. Not only the marketing department, but also many people in other departments said The marketing department should be handed over to me. Perhaps Zhu Renshun felt the pressure of public opinion and really made me a minister. But what we didn't expect was that Hu Minghan rose up instead of relegating and became the vice president of the group!"

Linley said in astonishment: "Hu Minghan's luck is really good, he didn't do anything, and he was promoted because of your contribution!"

"At that time, many people felt worthless for me, thinking that my contribution was not proportional to my gains. But I didn't care, and I have been doing my job conscientiously. Within a few years, I helped the group increase its market share to the highest ever The highest point reached 70.00%! It was at that time that I switched positions with Hu Minghan."

"Hiss..." Linley was full of emotion, "In other words, you have more than doubled the market share of Shunchang Group. In this way, it is true that half of the Shunchang Group's country is due to you. what!"
