My courtyard shelter

"Director Xu, we can trade directly with each other. We buy shares from you, and other small shareholders have no control at all."

Xu Dong simply laughed angrily. The other party actually had a good plan. Since the other party was so greedy, don't blame him for following his plan.

"Okay! I can sell you 10% of the group's shares for a price of two billion."

The valuation suddenly dropped by 5 billion.

"Ten percent is too much, we only need five percent." Mr. Wu shook his head.

After all, it was a transaction involving billions, and he wanted to wait and see.

"Five percent, that's 1.2 billion."

"This is too far off..."

Xu Dong was unmoved: "The price is this price and will not change. Mr. Wu, you can have a meeting to study it again. My quotation is valid until the end of the month."

"Director Xu, how about one billion to save your face?"

"Impossible." Xu Dong refused.

Mr. Wu squinted his eyes and saw that Xu Dong's attitude was very firm and there seemed to be no possibility of bargaining, so he nodded:

"Okay, I'll give you an answer before the end of the month."

"Then I'll just wait for the good news."

Xu Dong stood up and shook hands with the other party.

Then he left Xia Jian Group.

…

At work on Monday, as soon as Xu Dong arrived at the office, he was called over by Mr. Fei.

Secretary Wang is still here and should leave after the new year.

"Mr. Fei, are you looking for me?"

"Director Xu, sit down quickly!"

Mr. Fei pulled Xu Dong and sat on the sofa.

As soon as Xu Dong saw this posture, he knew that the other party must want something.

He quickly took out his cigarette: "Mr. Fei, do you want to smoke?"

"Smoke, why don't you smoke?"

Xu Dong handed over the cigarette case, and Mr. Fei took one directly.

"If I'm not mistaken, this cigarette is a brand from Beautiful Country, right?"

"Mr. Fei has a good eye."

Xu Dong helped the other party light the cigarette.

Mr. Fei took a deep drag on his cigarette and couldn't help but sigh: "Director Xu, you have a wide range of cigarettes. You can get cigarettes from beautiful countries."

Products such as tobacco and alcohol have strict import quota restrictions in the country. There is always a shortage of goods in the market and the prices are very high.

"I happen to know a friend in this field."

Xu Dong explained casually.

“That’s so rare!”

Xu Dong was a little confused about the other party's thoughts, so he could only take the initiative to ask: "Mr. Fei, what's the matter with you coming to me this morning?"

"It's nothing serious. I just want to ask about this year's Spring Festival welfare. How did your logistics department arrange it?"

Mr. Fei asked with a smile.

"So that's what happened!"

Xu Dong secretly breathed a sigh of relief:

"Even if you don't ask, I am preparing to submit the application report! This year's New Year's benefits are similar to last year. There are two main items, one is ten pounds of sugar and the other is five pounds of chrysanthemum tea."

Ever since he became the director of the department, Xu Dong has never made false promises. At present, except for food, all other benefits are nonsense.

"White sugar and chrysanthemum tea? Not bad."

Mr. Fei had a little surprise.

Sugar, in particular, is still in short supply.

Xu Dong looked proud: "Sugar and chrysanthemum tea are necessities in daily life. Based on the feedback last year, everyone should be very satisfied."

"Indeed." Mr. Fei nodded, and then changed the subject: "It's just Director Xu, can there be a slight change this year?"

"Change? How?"

Xu Dong asked subconsciously.

"Although the sugar and chrysanthemum tea are good, they are still a little lacking. Can your logistics department think of another way?"

Today is Mr. Fei's first year in office. He wants to leave a good impression on everyone, which can also be said to be openly trying to win people's hearts.

"But the budget?"

Xu Dong looked troubled.

Only when the company's performance has improved in the past two years can it be able to provide various benefits. However, the budget is limited after all, and it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.

"Don't worry about the budget. I'll double your budget. Just tell me if you can do it."

"It can be done!"

The big boss has spoken, he must do it even if he can’t do it!

Moreover, for Xu Dong, this is not difficult at all. In the past two years, as the general environment has improved, trade between countries has become much more active.

There is no way at home, but there are ways abroad.

Mr. Fei nodded with satisfaction, then reached out and patted Xu Dong on the shoulder:

"Then please."

"Mr. Fei, please wait for my good news!"

Back in the office, Xu Dong immediately dialed Mr. Mike's phone number, and the two parties agreed to discuss it in detail after get off work.

Soon it was lunch time, and Xiang Xin brought her daughter over for a visit.

"Uncle Xu, are you here?"

Mengmeng just entered the second grade of elementary school today.

Xu Dong immediately stepped forward and hugged the little girl: "Why haven't you come to see your uncle for so long?"

"Mengmeng wants to go to school."

The little girl replied slowly.

Maybe it's because she lacked a father since she was a child. The little girl has a very soft personality and seems to be slow in everything she does.

"Is the school on winter vacation?"

Mengmeng nodded: "Let it go."

Xu Dong returned to his seat with the little girl in his arms, then opened the drawer and took out a palm-sized piece of chocolate.

When it comes to eating, beauty is still the best.

No matter what time, luxuries such as chocolate, red wine, and coffee are indispensable.

"Do you want to eat?"

The little girl nodded seriously: "I think!"

Xu Dong tore open the chocolate wrapper and stuffed the chocolate into the little girl's hand.

"Thank you, Uncle Xu."

The little girl took the initiative to kiss the uncle's left cheek.

"So sensible!"

Xiang Xin came over to ask: "Boss, what benefits will be distributed during the Chinese New Year this year?"

"It's richer than last year, maybe there will be meat."

"Meat? Really?"

"I can't say for sure, but Mr. Fei said that this year it must be richer and a lot of budget has been allocated. As for whether you can buy meat, it depends on luck."

Xu Dong took the initiative to tell the "cause and effect".

Mr. Fei's kindness can't be buried, right? He has been in the workplace for so many years, and he has long known what can and can't be said.

"Mr. Fei is so generous?"

Xiang Xin said happily.

"So you are blessed."

Xiang Xin immediately asked: "Boss, what are your private benefits? Sister Feng just called me, and she was embarrassed to ask you directly."

In fact, it's not embarrassment, but awe.

Xu Dong is a director after all.

"Please tell Sister Feng, including Lao Fang, that there are many things to do during the New Year, and we will talk about welfare after the Dragon Boat Festival. I promise to make it up to you."

After all, we are colleagues, so we should pay attention to each other.

"I know, I will inform them when I get back."

Xiang Xin quickly agreed.

Meng Meng finished eating chocolate and suddenly interrupted:

"Uncle Xu, can I go to your house to play? I haven't seen Brother Dabao, Brother Erbao and Brother Xiaobao for a long time, as well as Sister Keke and Sister Lele."

"Sure, Dabao and the others are on winter vacation, let your grandfather take you there."

"Great!"

Xu Dong took the opportunity to joke: "Tell uncle, do you like to play with Dabao? Or with Erbao? Or with Xiaobao?"

"I... like them all."

The little girl is very smart.

"If I have to choose one?"

"Then...then..." The little girl hesitated and said, "Then I choose Brother Erbao."

"Why?" Xu Dong was very curious.

"Brother Dabao is with Sister Niuniu all day and has no time to play with me. Brother Xiaobao is only busy reading and playing games and has no time either. Only Brother Erbao has free time."

The little girl argued.

Xu Dong touched his chin. He didn't expect that the most promising one was Erbao. The two brats, the third and the fifth, seemed to have no chance.

Xiang Xin found out the "inside story" and left with her daughter in her arms within ten minutes. After all, this is a company and she should pay attention to the impact.

...

When it was time to get off work, Xu Dong drove directly to Mr. Mike's house. Before leaving, he took a box of snacks from the drawer as a gift.

The snacks were given by Lele to honor him as a father.

Among the five children, Xu Dong's favorite was the youngest daughter. In addition to the habits he developed in his previous life, it was also related to Lele's thoughtfulness.

Whether it is Coco or the three brothers Dabao, they are much inferior in this respect. The children love their father the same, but Lele is better at expressing it.

"Ding Dong... Ding Dong..."

Compared to five years ago, Mr. Mike's family has finally moved into a big villa. The house was bought the year before last. Xu Dong gave a million-dollar painting as a gift.

Although the gift is valuable, it is not worth mentioning compared to the business between the two.

The transaction amount of sugar alone reached an astonishing 600 million.

Xu Dong did not keep this money in his account, but exchanged it for various ingredients, antiques, gold, and a large seaside manor in Kangaroo Country.

The manor is prepared for vacation. Dad and Mom are getting older and older. Yanjing is too cold in winter. When the children are older, he plans to let the old couple go south to avoid the cold.

"Mr. Xu, please come in."

Mrs. Mike looked enthusiastic.

Xu Dong handed over the snacks in his hand: "Le Le made some snacks, you can help evaluate them. She wants to open a bakery, but I don't know if her level is good enough?" Mrs. Mac opened the box and tasted a piece of snack on the spot. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Enough, absolutely enough. If Le Le opens a shop, remember to notify me, I will go there every day." "Haha, if she hears these words, she will definitely jump up." Xu Dong smiled and nodded. After the greetings, Mr. Mac took the distinguished guest to the study, and Mrs. Mac turned into the kitchen. Xu Dong just agreed to stay for dinner together. "Mr. Xu, tea or coffee?" "No, a glass of boiled water. I haven't been sleeping well recently. I can't sleep at night if I drink too much." "Okay." Mr. Mac poured a glass of boiled water for the other party. He himself was the same. After so many years in Da Xia, he felt that drinking boiled water was a good habit. Without coffee and desserts, he felt much more relaxed. "Mike, how's your business lately?"

"Haha, not bad. After all, the Spring Festival is coming soon, and there are many more orders than usual."

"You made a lot this year, right?"

Xu Dong asked with a smile.

Mr. Mike shook his head: "Compared with previous years, the past two years are far behind."

Two years ago, because the price of white sugar was cut in half, Xu Dong directly suspended white sugar trading.
