I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 354 Shocking News

After Cao Xiaobei explained to me why he came here, he shook the bunch of keys in his hands, as if I were a hungry wolf, and what he was holding was a piece of fatty meat. Putting my posture so high probably means that I will not give up these 16 shops. He must have heard the news somewhere, and knows how much I was calculated by his father for these 16 shops. awful……

And the thing that frustrates me the most is not Cao Jinbo's calculations, but the relationship between me and Ye Zhi, which has been really affected... I have been anxious about this, and I hate the supposedly pure emotional world , but mixed with such complicated interest entanglements.

I didn't rush to answer Cao Xiaobei, I lit a cigarette for myself first, and then I asked Cao Xiaobei: "You bring the keys to these 16 shops and negotiate terms with me, does your dad know?"

"The house is in my name, and I can use it however I want."

I smiled and replied, "That sounds tough!"

"Do you want it or not?"

"No."

Cao Xiaobei looked at me in astonishment, apparently not expecting such an answer from me.

I squinted my eyes and took a puff of the cigarette without explaining to him why I said no.

Cao Xiaobei was stunned for a while, and then he said to me: "Could it be that you want to play hard to get with me? ... I've already asked, you want to make Jiulongju a commercial street. , you must have these 16 sets of shops in our house... There are only about 200 sets of shops on this street. Without these 16 sets of shops connected together, it is like a person missing a thigh. If this person is disabled Now, can his image get better?"

"So all of your family regard these 16 sets of shops as my weakness, and try to catch me and poke me, right?"

Cao Xiaobei remained silent.

I said again: "You should understand the truth of this moment and that moment?...I have already survived the most difficult time...So, you brought these keys to talk to me today, are you not giving I am kind, let alone accepting your charity... If I take over your shops, the benefits you get in the end will be far greater than mine... But your father and you are very important in this matter. If there is a distinction between superiority and inferiority, I feel very unhappy... because you don't even have the most basic sense of cooperation, and cooperation should be equal and mutually beneficial."

"What on earth do you mean?... Do you still want me to apologize to you, and then beg you to accept these shops?"

"If you want to tell me like this, then I will tell you the truth... I think you are unreliable, so I don't want to cooperate with you."

Cao Xiaobei pointed at me, and said to me in a threatening tone: "You are careful to pretend to be big, I really don't want to play with you."

I looked at Cao Xiaobei indifferently... and the reason why I refused was because I had an extra mind, I was already scared by Cao Jinbo's schemes, if I took over these shops and completed the investment promotion work, the merchants would be behind I have invested in the decoration cost, if Cao Jinbo plays the trick of locking the door again, it will be strange if the merchant won't let me bear the decoration cost... Besides, Cao Xiaobei came to talk to me about this matter, which is in itself There is a problem... Even if these shops are under his name, he can't be Cao Jinbo's owner at all... The reason is very simple, he is the rice bug in Yang Sisi's mouth, and a person who can't even be financially independent, and What qualifications do you have to talk about rights... On this point, I have never looked down on Cao Xiaobei.

Unless, he can prove that he can be independent without Cao Jinbo, at least he must earn some money to support himself, instead of playing motorcycles and games every day.

Cao Xiaobei suddenly became depressed, he looked down at the large bunch of keys in his hand, and then asked me in a low voice: "In Sisi's eyes, am I a particularly incompetent person? ... So, No matter how much I treat her with sincerity, she will never look at me high!"

This time, I was so stunned that I replied after a while: "When she left that day, didn't she already tell you very clearly... I don't think the answer lies with me. There is an answer."

"I want to do something...but I don't know where to start."

"So you came to me with the keys to these 16 sets of shops?...But this is still enjoying the benefits...You didn't pay at all, because your dad bought the shops...The later operation is done by our studio The only thing you have to pay is to send the key and wait to collect the money."

Cao Xiaobei looked up at me, his eyes were full of disappointment... and this is not common, at least this is the first time I saw him like this, before he was always high-spirited, his eyes looked at people , often with disdain and contempt...Of course, these are the confidence that Cao Jinbo brought to him. No one knows what kind of person he is in his bones, not even himself...Otherwise, he would not be like Looking at me so confused now.

He should thank Yang Sisi, not to mention what will happen to him in the future, but at least he has a sense of crisis now, and wants to try to do something, which is tantamount to a good start.

After being silent for a while, I said to Cao Xiaobei again: "Do you really want to do something?"

"Ah."

"I have an idea... In the future, you don't have to compromise with me, and I don't have to depend on you, but we can still achieve a win-win situation."

Cao Xiaobei asked with great concern, "What do you think?"

I sorted out my thoughts, and then replied: "Didn't I use these shops as a temporary inn before, you can invest a little more in decoration, and then continue to do it... In this way, you don't need to entrust these shops to our studio , You are completely self-reliant... Our studio doesn't have to worry about your abandoned shops in rows, affecting the image of the entire commercial street, don't you think it kills two birds with one stone?"

Cao Xiaobei thought for a while and said, "It seems to be the case, but can you make money by running an inn in this commercial street?"

"Didn't I already make a lot of money... and the peak season of summer vacation is coming soon, if you upgrade the decoration, if you say you can't make money, that's nonsense!"

Cao Xiaobei seemed to be thinking secretly...

I said to him again: "But before that, there is one thing that needs to be confirmed, can you really take out these 16 sets of shops and use them casually?... You should know that my father and I spent the holidays, and these shops It’s the root of our festival.”

I stared at Cao Xiaobei, and paid attention to his answer in my heart; and the reason why I suggested him to build the inn by himself was also out of this consideration, if Cao Xiaobei was running the inn, Cao Jinbo would not count on him no matter what On his own son, then our commercial street will be considered peaceful.

To be honest, I really care more about the stability of the entire commercial street than making money from these 16 sets of shops! "

Cao Xiaobei also took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it. After taking a puff, he replied, "My dad actually asked me to bring you the keys to these shops."

I was shocked, and asked after a while: "You're not joking with me, are you... It's impossible for your father to give me these shops."

"Why can't it be used for you?"

I replied convincingly: "He didn't get any benefit from the project of Cangshan Yishu. It's too late to trouble me now. How could he be kind enough to let me use these shops."

Cao Xiaobei looked at me in surprise, and said, "My dad has already invested [-] shares in the Cangshan Yishu project... In addition, the land occupied by my dad's paper factory has also been taken out to share with him. Binjiang Group cooperated to develop it, which is the family business of your girlfriend's family...they signed a contract later, don't you know?"

I was so shocked that I couldn't add it... Then I wondered in my heart: What's going on?

If Cao Xiaobei's words are true, then my previous ideas were indeed used by Cao Jinbo and the Binjiang Group...Since Cao Jinbo has already reached a cooperation with the Binjiang Group, it naturally makes no sense to be in Jiulongju. These shops are embarrassing me.

But Ye Zhi is indeed gone, so who is behind this matter?
