Chapter 685 Jealousy

Xiang Chengxian and Li Sande have reached an agreement, so the report is already ready.

Even if it hasn't been written yet, the result is already determined.

After Ji Yuanhai got home from get off work, he first received a call from Boss Hua, telling him that three companies were already negotiating with Tianhe Company regarding the sales of truffles.

One is a Western company, which is to prevent the French company from turning against us.

Two are island companies - today's island nation has the second largest economy in the world, with an enormous amount of wealth, extremely rich per capita, and a special adoration for top Western consumer products.

Boss Hua believes that as long as Tianhe Company's truffles become famous in the West, the island country will definitely pursue the consumption of this Western luxury food at a price of more than five hundred US dollars, and it is very likely that the supply will exceed the demand.

What Boss Hua hates most are companies from the island countries, but when it comes to making money from the island people, he can be a qualified businessman, without any ambiguity - what he hates most is being taken advantage of by the island people through transactions.

These two island companies are also one of the escape routes prepared by Boss Hua for Tianhe Company.

It is better to be safe than sorry. What if the French company colludes with other Western companies to manipulate the truffles of Tianhe Company, making it impossible to sell these truffles and forcing them to lower the price? Then the market of the island country, the world's second largest economy, becomes very important.

Ji Yuanhai listened to Boss Hua’s hard work and felt that it was all worth it.

What Boss Hua can do relatively easily, Wang Zhuyun and Xiao Hongyi will have to work hard for a long time before they can hope to achieve; and once the truffle trade begins, other people's evil ways may come at any time, time waits for no one, and other people's conspiracies and tricks will not wait for anyone either.

This 10% profit was worth it.

After hanging up the phone, Ji Yuanhai heard the phone ringing again before he left.

"Yuan Hai, I heard that you guys have already started harvesting salt-frost potatoes?"

"How is it? Did the production meet expectations?"

It was Yue Feng calling.

Ji Yuanhai smiled and responded, "Brother Yue, we have met and exceeded our expectations! We only produce 200 kilograms of seedlings per mu of land, but the harvest is 1,000 kilograms. We can also earn about 10 yuan of coarse salt per mu of land. In just this quarter, the hunger problem in Wangtan County has been basically solved."

"If we plant another crop of potatoes in the fall, the people of Wangtan County will definitely have enough food and drink."

"Hahaha, that's good, that's good!" Yue Feng said, "When should I go to Wangtan County again and conduct a thorough investigation?"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and replied: "Brother Yue, there is no need to rush this time."

"Our Wangtan County government's report will be sent to the city, and then to the province. Uncle Meng will probably come in person by then."

Upon hearing this, Yue Feng also sighed: "It's time, it's really time!"

Before this, the promotion of salt-frost potatoes remained only on paper and did not bring any tangible results. Even if the expectations were good, it would be impossible for Meng Qi, as the squad leader, to go there specifically according to the expected results given by a county.

This is too unstable.

The same principle applies to how much truffles sell for and how they drive economic development. Before actual results come out, the province cannot make an official statement, let alone set the tone and give any rewards to Wangtan County and Jiyuanhai.

Now, it is the harvest season for salt-frost potatoes, and everything is really as expected, with tangible results.

Then you can go and check out the results, make sure they are real, and set the tone.

Thinking of this, Yue Feng asked Ji Yuanhai again: "Yuanhai, what is the current situation of the truffles from Tianhe Company?"

Ji Yuanhai replied: "We have already sold the first batch, which is worth 5 million US dollars. We should be able to sell a lot more in the future. It will only be more than the previous estimate, not less."

"Okay, we've got some results here too!" Yue Feng breathed a sigh of relief. "These two results are extraordinary. Even if Uncle Meng promotes you to a higher position, no one will say anything!"

"According to convention, it should take you three years to become a full-time official, but this time you will probably be promoted directly; maybe, instead of being the county magistrate, you will become the secretary directly."

"If it's just the secretary, that would be a bit too conspicuous..." Ji Yuanhai responded.

"With your current achievements, this is not an exaggeration. After all, an extraordinary position rewards extraordinary contributions." Yue Feng said this and asked with a smile, "Besides these two major events, what other contributions do you have that Yuan Hai has not mentioned?"

Ji Yuanhai said: "The rest are all trivial matters, such as when I went to Wangtan County, I attracted 3 million yuan in agricultural support investment, and Boss Hua invested in building roads and factories in Wangtan County—"

"what!"

Yue Feng exclaimed in surprise: "In addition to parting ways with us amicably, Boss Hua also went to invest in Wangtan County? Didn't he go to Ninghe County?"

Ji Yuanhai responded to the whole story. The main thing was that the development of Tianhe Company would drive the development of Wangtan County. Boss Hua also invested money in Wangtan County in order to see the development of Wangtan County.

Finally, he explained to Yue Feng: "The money he has invested is less than one-tenth of what Ninghe County has invested. It's not a big deal. Besides, the road construction has just started and the work has not been completed yet."

What I mean is that the matter is not a big deal, and it won’t be too late to deal with it after it is done.

Yue Feng suddenly realized: "That's true."

He couldn't help but think of some rumors in his mind. He would not have thought too much about it, but as Ji Yuanhai became closer and closer to Meng Qi and relied more and more on Meng Qi, Yue Feng remembered it.

Is Ji Yuanhai related to Meng Qi’s daughter Meng Zhaoying?

Meng Zhaoying is almost thirty years old now and has no plans to get married. Could she be waiting to marry Ji Yuanhai?

Originally, this matter sounded outrageous, but when Yue Feng thought about an outstanding and handsome young cadre like Ji Yuanhai, he felt that it made sense.

Regardless of whether this rumor is true or not, it is a foregone conclusion that Ji Yuanhai will be promoted from deputy director to director this time. I just don’t know whether there will be a transition from county governor to county senior official in between.

Sometimes the rule of employing people is that if someone is felt to be young and inexperienced, he will be specially appointed as county magistrate for one to three years and then be made secretary.

But considering Ji Yuanhai's current achievements, I feel there is nothing wrong with him becoming the secretary directly.

As long as Meng Qi shows up and as long as Ji Yuanhai is really willing, wouldn’t it be easy to get him?

After thinking for a long time and coming to his senses, Yue Feng didn't know what he said to Ji Yuanhai in the end before he hung up the phone.

He was stunned for a long while before putting down the phone.

The thought just now slowly floated in his mind, and Yue Feng felt particularly uncomfortable.

Yuan Hai is his brother, and he has helped him so much. Why should he think about him and speculate about him so much? Wouldn't that be alienating?

After a long while, a thought came to his mind and Yue Feng was shocked. He finally understood why he had so many unfrank thoughts. It was because he felt sour in his heart and was a little jealous of Ji Yuanhai.

He and Ji Yuanhai were once very different from each other. One was a cadre, and the other was a college student from the countryside. Now his potential is almost exhausted and his future is uncertain, while Ji Yuanhai is making great progress and has unlimited potential.

He is not a saint, and even his trusted subordinates and good brothers can't help but feel jealous.
