My boss betrayed me

Under Xia Muchu's command, Wang Long became more and more courageous, as if he had swallowed the courage of a bear or a leopard.

He has both a glorious past of success and a painful experience of failure.

His successful experience told him that as long as he listened to Xia Muchu's instructions, did not ask too many questions, did not delve into the principles, and just followed the orders, he would be able to make a fortune. It can be said that "listening to your words is better than reading for ten years."

But the lesson of failure also made him realize that his hands, which could only swing a spatula, would never be able to snatch the red and blue pencils from the general's hands, otherwise he would be "seeking his own death."

Now, Wang Long and Zhang San worship Xia Muchu like a god, and they almost put him on a high pedestal.

Even if the sky falls, in their hearts, Xia Muchu's life is far more precious than their own. After all, there is a world of difference between death and injury, and this is not a joke.

For Wang Long and Zhang San, raising two million Longteng coins in just forty days was not an impossible task.

However, the difficulty lies in maintaining strict confidentiality. Also, how to carry and transfer such a huge amount of funds?

You know, even if all the two million Dragon Coins were in denominations of 100, they would have to fill four suitcases. The risk involved was so huge that it was daunting, and it was simply "overwhelming pressure."

In order to handle the matter properly, Wang Long and Zhang San racked their brains and came up with a brilliant plan - to break it down layer by layer and break it down into pieces.

They first brought in 130,000 Dragon Coins in cash from Narnia, and then secretly borrowed 110,000 Dragon Coins from relatives and friends in the hometown in the name of visiting home.

Then, the 240,000 Dragon Teng coins were quietly gathered in Hanzhou and stored in the safe in the office of the general manager of Graple Company in the International Hotel.

In order to ensure the safety of the money, Zhang San and Wang Long had to stay in Hanzhou and take turns to be on duty in the office, living in fear every day.

On this hot and sweltering afternoon, a new round of negotiations between Grapul Co., Ltd. and Hanzhou Leather Factory officially kicked off in the leather factory's conference room.

This negotiation seems like a long and endless marathon. It has lasted for a whole year. It can be said to be a "long journey with no end."

Although the letter of intent has been signed, the formal agreement has yet to be finalized. Various problems have emerged like mushrooms after a rain, and the endless meetings and discussions are a headache.

The leather factory has always been skeptical about the joint venture.

Foreign organizations are stationed in international hotels and are fully staffed with engineers, accountants, legal advisers, drivers, secretaries, etc., and their daily expenses are huge, which makes people have to believe in their sincerity.

However, despite China's repeated concessions, foreign investors continued to push for more and more demands, with an intention of deliberately making things difficult and delaying the process, which again made people doubt their sincerity.

The leather factory was confused. What was Grapple trying to achieve by waging such a war of attrition?

The leather factory is having a hard time and has fallen to the lowest point in its history. The tragic situation is unbearable to watch.

Except for the staff on duty and sporadic production in individual workshops, most employees can only receive basic living expenses at home and spend their time in a daze.

Actively introducing foreign investment is not only a strong requirement of the municipal government and competent departments, but also the leather factory's own earnest expectation for a quick turnaround. They are fully expecting a "jedi counterattack."

This negotiation is a ray of hope for the employees and the continuation of power for the factory director. No one dares to be careless.

Wang Long gave Director Ma a mobile phone worth 20,000 Longteng coins in the name of loan. It seemed that it was just for personal communication, but the factory sensed a hint of sincerity from the foreign businessman.

When the foreign investors formally proposed the request for sole investment, the factory was stunned for a moment. It hurriedly reported to the competent department and urgently studied countermeasures. It felt like a little rabbit jumping up and down in its heart, and was very nervous and anxious.

The factory is well aware that success or failure depends on this one move. The critical moment has arrived, which can be described as a "life and death moment."

As expected, and just as Xia Muchu had anticipated, the leather factory's superior authorities took a firm stance and demanded that the leather factory strive to make the negotiations successful.

Compared with joint ventures, wholly foreign-owned enterprises are more significant to Hanzhou: first, they have revitalized state-owned assets; second, they have gotten rid of the heavy burden of loss-making enterprises; third, they have introduced more foreign investment; fourth, they have provided new employment opportunities; and fifth, they have relieved the huge pressure on the government. This is simply "killing two birds with one stone".

The negotiating parties have the same interests and the same mindset, which is like "everything is ready, only the east wind is missing", laying a solid foundation for the success of the negotiations.

Wang Long went to the leather factory for negotiations in a long-term chartered Audi sedan, driven by a beautiful female secretary.

There were three people brought from Narnia on the same car, namely an engineer, an accountant and a translator.

One of the engineers is an Austrian, which means that the leather factory in the future will be based on Austria's advanced production technology, which is really exciting!

**Legend of the Tannery Negotiations**

The negotiation venue was spotlessly clean and bright enough to illuminate one's heart! A huge conference table stood majestically in the center of the room, and the green velvet cloth on it was so smooth and delicate that it seemed to make people feel the breath of spring.

Electric heaters stood steadily in the four corners of the room, whirring out rolling waves of heat. Several pots of evergreen flowers were neatly placed along the wall. They were full of vitality, adding a lot of liveliness and agility to this originally serious and suffocating place.

In front of each seat, there is a cup of steaming, fragrant tea placed neatly.

Five big men, the foreign business representatives, walked in arrogantly, followed by eleven Chinese representatives with their heads held high and firm steps. Both sides took their seats in turn on either side of the conference table, and when their eyes met, it seemed as if sparks were flying in the air.

As the negotiations officially began, the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Wang Long stood up first to speak. His expression was so serious that it seemed to freeze the air around him: "Dear representatives, our negotiations have been running like a marathon for a year, but up to now, there has been no substantial progress.

Your leather factory is doing well, leisurely every day, as if nothing happened.

But here we are, like a faucet opened, with huge amounts of money flowing out every day. Who can bear this? If this continues, we will explode on the spot, and you will not be able to get any benefits from it.

Recently, we proposed the idea of ​​sole proprietorship, mainly for three reasons.

First, we want you to clearly see our investment sincerity, which is absolutely full and unquestionable;

Second, don't mess up our rhythm with your old state-owned business practices. We won't tolerate your bad habits.

Third, we have to get this done quickly and stop pestering us, or we will have to find another way out and fly high in no time."
