Material Empire

There is also a reason why Xu Guoquan lost his composure.

On the one hand, he was really moved by Qin Hai's righteous deeds, and felt that Qin Hai was a rare good person. He was thinking about it, but he couldn't think of why Qin Hai gave up so many benefits to the 70X Institute. The only explanation was that Qin Hai himself said that he wanted to contribute to the cause of national defense. In such an era where everyone is looking at money, people who can do this are really rare, and Xu Guoquan thinks that such people are worthy of his deep friendship.

On the other hand, although Xu Guoquan has a high position, he is actually very cash-strapped. He is a toothless tiger, and he knows what he is worth. In his opinion, although Qin Hai, who is worth hundreds of millions, is young and a private entrepreneur, his actual status is much higher than him. He and Qin Hai swore to be brothers, it's really hard to say who is the one who is the best.

Once there is a bit of inferiority complex psychologically, Xu Guoquan will naturally no longer be able to put on the airs of the chief, and can only treat Qin Hai in parallel. Liang Rongjian and the others felt that Xu Guoquan was usually superior. That was because Xu Guoquan was the leader in front of them, and he wanted to maintain some majesty. In fact, when Xu Guoquan got together with the directors of other research institutes, he was quite relaxed, no different from how he was with Qin Hai now.

From Qin Hai's side, the original intention was really to help 70X Institute. In his mind, as a time traveler, with such a powerful golden finger, if he can't do something for the country and society, he really feels ashamed. The 70X Institute is an important domestic research institution engaged in military aircraft, and it is also well-known in later generations. Now that Qin Hai has come into contact with 70X Institute and knows that they are in difficulties, he naturally can't sit idly by.

After Xu Guoquan saw the market prospect of body armor, he flattered him so much that he didn't hesitate to hand it over. At first, Qin Hai was a little embarrassed and felt afraid to accept it. After seeing that Xu Guoquan's interview did not seem to be a fake, Qin Hai readily expressed his hope to make friends with Xu Guoquan and use his feelings to keep the two parties together.

Qin Hai was born in a farming family and had no natural backing. He could only use his own abilities to build a network of relationships that could protect himself and his property. Xu Guoquan is a member of the military, and he can call him a brother and brother. At critical times, maybe he can help him solve some difficult problems.

Qin Hai is not suitable for producing bulletproof vests by himself, so he transfers them to the tertiary production company of the 70X Institute for production, and focuses on providing raw materials, which is what everyone deserves. Being able to use this product to make friends with a powerful person in the military, this business is still worth doing.

Naturally, these thoughts on both sides will not be fully expressed. The relationship between friends depends on interests and also on their respective personalities. Qin Hai believed that Xu Guoquan was a man of character and would never do anything like demolish rivers and bridges.

Director Xu, Brother Qin, you are so sticky here, can you let me, an outsider, intervene? Xiao Weihao approached Xu Guoquan and Qin Hai with a smile.

Xu Guoquan glared jokingly, and said, Brother Qin and I are jointly building the army and the people. Why are you here to get involved? Are you an army or a civilian? You have to take the lead, right?

Director Xu really asked me. Xiao Weihao laughed. The security department was originally a military institution, but with the evolution of these years, it has gradually merged with the local government, and it is a bit half-military and half-civilian. When Xu Guoquan choked him like this, Xiao Weihao really didn't know how to answer.

Xiao Chu is also my big brother. When I was in the Soviet Union, he gave me a lot of help. Qin Hai quickly explained his friendship with Xiao Weihao. In his opinion, Xu Guoquan is a friend, and Xiao Weihao is also a friend. It's a relationship that you can use.

Xiao Weihao said with satisfaction: That's right. Xiao Qin, don't call me Xiao Chu from now on. I am not worth mentioning as the director in front of Director Xu. Since you are called Brother Xu , call me big brother too.

If you want to call him Second Brother, right? Qin Hai corrected with a smile, Xiao Weihao is willing to be called his brother, what else is he not happy about?

Second brother... is a bit ambiguous. Xiao Weihao muttered depressingly.

Then call it the second brother. Xu Guoquan added fuel to the fire. Obviously, he also knew why Xiao Weihao called the second brother ambiguous.

Old Xu, you are too bad, don't teach us Brother Qin to be bad! Xiao Weihao pretended to be angry and gave Xu Guoquan a white look. Qin Hai couldn't help shivering, and his goosebumps fell off with that expression like a resentful woman. one place. Xiao Weihao didn't realize that there was something wrong with his expression, he just put his head in front of Qin Hai, and said in a low voice: Brother Qin, you helped Lao Xu get a business of 140 million, are you also doing something for our system? Do you do business? Our system is much poorer than Lao Xu and the others, brothers go out to handle cases, and they can’t even afford instant noodles.”

Qin Haidao: I don't have such a great ability to help your system do anything. However, if it is the matter of the second brother Xiao's own management, the younger brother is obliged. If the second brother Xiao's management can handle the tertiary industry, I will I must find a product for you, and it should not be a problem to make millions of profits a year.

A few million...isn't it a little too little? Xiao Weihao said with feigned displeasure.

Oh, that's it? Forget it. Qin Hai is not a person who will be fooled. After hearing Xiao Weihao's words, he immediately took back the words, holding the wine glass, and looked at Xiao Weihao with a smile, waiting for him to repent.

You're ruthless! Xiao Weihao said bitterly, A few million is a few million. I don't have as much face as Lao Xu. But, Xiao Qin, this is what you said, and you have to guarantee hundreds of millions every year. Wan, if you can't do it, I'll never end with you.

Qin Hai smiled and said: I promised the second brother's matter, and it will be done naturally. However, it is too late now, wait for me to finish the elder brother's matter first, and then think about the second brother's matter, what do you think? ?”

Old Xu's business is not so easy to finish. Doesn't it mean that we have to wait until the year of the monkey? No, our office is waiting for the rice to be cooked. Or, the business of bulletproof vests will also count as me, how about it? Xiao Weihao started playing tricks.

Xu Guoquan got a lot of benefits, and he was not stingy. He patted Xiao Weihao on the shoulder and said, Second brother, Xiao Qin entrusted us to make the bulletproof vest. You must not be allowed to intervene. However, if you are going to the United States to sell Bulletproof vests, but it really depends on you, a capable person. Or, let me make the decision and give you a condition, every time I sell a bulletproof vest, I will give you a commission of 1 yuan, what do you think?

One yuan? You sent a beggar! Xiao Weihao was thinking of a sales commission, but when he heard that he would only be given a commission of one yuan per item, he immediately became impatient. Qin Hai has already calculated that the profit of a bulletproof vest is 1,400 yuan, and only 1 yuan is used as a commission, which is indeed no different from sending a beggar.

Xu Guoquan said: One yuan is not enough. Think about it, if you can sell 100,000 pieces, you can raise 100,000 yuan. Can you have 100,000 yuan for a year?

You only have a year's funding, so why can you get 140 million at once? No, at least give me 100 yuan for one piece. Xiao Weihao argued.

100 yuan? Why don't you grab it! Xu Guoquan was also anxious, 100,000 pieces is 10 million. Your second brother Xiao is made of gold, and you can earn so much money just by going out for a trip!

Ten million is just a fraction of yours. Could it be that you are made of diamonds? Xiao Weihao said.

Forget it, we can't afford you, you can go back to the capital. Xu Guoquan came to take a draught.

Why should I go back! Your Science and Industry Committee invited me here, hehe, it's easier to please God than to give it away. One piece is 50 yuan, if I don't have it, I won't do it.

I'm still hoping that you won't do it. It's 5 yuan a piece, and you can go back if there is more.

...

The two of them quarreled at the wine table like big children. Of course, both of them took their identities into consideration, so they would not yell loudly, and only limited their voices to be heard by both parties and Qin Hai. Qin Hai couldn't help but smile as he watched them haggle over each other. He knew that these two people really regarded him as their own, otherwise it would be impossible to behave so unscrupulously in front of him.

By the time Xiao Weihao and Xu Guoquan finally reached a verbal agreement with a commission of 10 yuan per piece, the banquet was already coming to an end. Liang Rongjian, Zhang Peng and others challenged Heizi with wheel tactics, and ended in a disastrous defeat, all of them were too drunk to stand up. The translator, Luo Kaimeng, was a woman, and it was inconvenient for everyone to persuade her to drink, so she was able to stay sober.

Let's stop here today. We'll wait for the reply from the Science and Industry Committee tomorrow, and then we'll make a trip to the United States. Xiao Luo, you go and settle the bill. Xu Guoquan instructed Luo Kaimeng.

Chi Jian stopped Luo Kaimeng, who was about to get up, and said, Translator Luo doesn't need to go. I have already asked the restaurant to charge the account to our factory for today's bill.

How can this be done? It was agreed that we invited you. Xu Guoquan couldn't hold back. Although he felt a little distressed about the bill, it was a matter of face, and he still had to fight for it.

Qin Haidao: Brother Xu, since we are a family, let's not be too polite. Anyway, our company is still financially better off. You are short of money, so you should save some money. When you get the sales revenue of the body armor, It won't be too late for Big Brother Xu to invite us to a better restaurant to celebrate.

That was then, and now is now. Waiter, bring the bill and we'll pay it. Xu Guoquan shouted to the waiter standing aside.

The waiter stepped forward, smiled slightly, and said, Dear guests, someone has already paid for your account, so there is no need for you to argue.

Someone has paid? Who? Chi Jian looked around in surprise, wondering who would rush to pay the bill.

Mr. Qin... I paid your bill. I have asked the restaurant to record the bill under the name of the city government's Xiaozhao. This is what Mayor Rao specifically explained. Zheng Xiuzhu, the director of the city government guest house, didn't know what Time popped up and said to Qin Hai with a smile.

It's past 12 o'clock, so I had to stay up all night.

It seems very difficult to stick to two changes a day. I can't always stay up late because I have old arms and legs.
