Chapter 59 Eagle and Meat
Wang Xiao stopped.
He and Tang Qianqian looked at each other, raised a smug smile, and then turned around and said: "Brother He, you are wrong. There are a total of 100,000 taels of silver. If you pay 30,000 taels, you can get 30% of it. Then
Aren’t our wisdom and efforts valuable?”
He Wan rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Do you like it or not?"
Wang smiled and said: "Brother He is sincere, how about I give you two more points, 10%?"
"A hundred thousand taels of capital? It's not like you fucking invested it right away." He Wan scolded: "Don't think I don't know, you plan to use these 30,000 taels to open a bank, and then invest it after making money.
You just made 100,000 to show me, can you really get another 70,000 taels out?"
"Brother He should know that this is a very profitable business."
He Wan said: "If you are determined to do it, I will give you five points, accounting for two and a half percent. If you still refuse, it will be useless for you and me to talk more."
Unlike you, I give in little by little. I give in five points at a time.
Wang Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked happy, thinking: It's useless to talk more? Hey, then we can start bargaining.
"Brother He, listen to me..."
The sun sets early in the north, and the sky gets darker little by little.
Listening to these two people arguing, Wen Youcai yawned.
He Cheng also wanted to leave, but he wanted to see if He Wan had actually spent money to buy this guy's shares.
He Wanji was a little impatient.
He prides himself on being a straightforward person who always does things in a smooth and free manner.
But after haggling with Wang Xiao for a long time today, I really couldn’t stand it anymore.
"Two makes two percent! But it must include the business of swarming with coal." He Wan growled.
Wang Xiao muttered: "Okay. I really do it because of Brother He's sincerity..."
"That's it, I'll let others talk to you about the rest." He Wan interrupted impatiently.
Wang Xiao sighed, feeling a little unsatisfied.
"Oh, I actually sold 20% of the shares in the coal industry for a mere thirty thousand taels..."
Hearing Wang Xiao's soliloquy, He Wan was so angry that he wished he could slap him awake.
What does a ‘mere’ thirty thousand taels mean?!
He Wan, who thought he was very discerning, now felt that he was at a loss.
That evening, when he was sitting on a chair and gasping for breath, he didn't realize that he only spent a mere thirty thousand taels to buy something that far exceeded his imagination...
Wen Youcai and He Cheng were quite surprised. They didn't expect that they had actually negotiated this deal.
Now that they saw the result, they stood up and left.
Just when he stood up, he heard Wang Xiao mutter: "Now that 20% of the shares have been divided, we can only allow one more family to come in."
The two of them were in a trance for a moment.
This is the first time I have seen a young man who speaks so loudly and acts so outrageously.
"It's like everyone is vying to give you money..."
With this thought in mind, the two of them went back to their respective homes, thinking about how to report such a strange incident to their boss.
Next, He Wan called He Fengshou over and asked him to prepare a written deed.
Tang Qianqian also asked people to call Tang Bowang up.
When He Fengshou and Tang Bowang arrived, they were both shocked.
He Fengshou was surprised that Young Master Ninth said that he would "see how to do business", but in the end he invested more than 30,000 taels inexplicably.
What surprised Tang Bowang was... Tang Qianqian and Wang Xiao were sitting on the same chair, and their behavior was really offensive.
He was surprised, but Tang Bowang also understood that this handsome boy was indeed the pretty boy raised by his own lady...?
"Miss." He called to Tang Qianqian.
Tang Qianqian held Wang's arm and smiled and said: "Uncle Wang, this is the proprietor who you said was 'willing to warm the world with his blood'."
"Proprietor." Tang Bowang took a deep look at the injury on Wang Xiao's head.
"Mr. Tang, please don't be too polite." Wang Xiao was very polite.
He felt slightly regretful.
It was not easy to win the favor of this old man, but he was not Tang Qianqian's father.
Tang Qianqian said: "The matter has been decided. You and the shopkeeper He can draft a document and go to the Shuntian Mansion Yamen tomorrow to get it done."
"Yes." Tang Bowang bowed and agreed.
So Tang Bowang and He Fengshou began to draft documents.
Wang Xiao asked He Wan about his experiences at sea and interesting things about foreign countries.
He Wan was a little tired, so he just responded casually.
Wang Xiao looked extremely interested.
"Have you been to Spain? Have you been to Portugal? Have you been to South America? There is Mexico..."
"Brother He, have you ever heard of Columbus? This man should have brought good things from South America back to Europe..."
If someone was willing to talk to him about maritime affairs in normal times, He Wan would be extremely enthusiastic.
But at this moment, he glanced sideways at Wang Xiao and didn't want to speak.
First, the thirty thousand taels of silver only accounted for 20% of the shares, and the business was still dead. He was a little undecided, thinking that he might have made the wrong bet; second, he only slept for less than two hours today, and he had been active all day.
After haggling fiercely, I was indeed tired, hungry and sleepy.
Wang Xiao added: "Brother He, if you have a ship to go to sea next time, can you bring something for me? For example...it is so big, and this red skin can be eaten raw or cooked...such as this, so
Grow a corn cob..."
He Wan leaned lazily on the chair, yawned, and then said: "Ganfan, right? There are people in Fujian, and I have a boat with people to eat... As for Fanmai, there were people in the previous dynasty.
It can be found in Shaanxi and Henan areas..."
"Yes! Fanmai is corn." Wang Xiao perked up and asked, "Is it available in the capital?"
"I don't know." He Wan said, "Anyway, I have it on my boat. Some boatmen often eat it. I will bring it to you next time."
"Brother He, are all of these on board?!"
"Yeah." He Wan supported his head and snorted weakly.
"Brother He, can I go to your boat and have a look?" Wang Xiao clenched his fists and asked excitedly.
He Wan was a little surprised: "You want to play on my boat?"
Wang Xiao nodded vigorously.
"I know, I'll go to Tianjin Pier in a few days. If you want to go, just follow me."
After He Feng finished completing the paperwork, He Wan stood up.
"Brother He, don't you want to eat together?"
He Wan said angrily: "You ate 30% of my penis and you still want to eat with me?!"
With that said, he walked away.
When Tang Bowang also retreated, only Wang Xiao and Tang Qianqian were left in the tea room, as well as the thirty-two thousand taels of silver on the table.
Wang Xiao looked out the window and sighed: "These capitalists' sense of smell is a bit too good. I just made a briquette and a plan, and then they found me..."
Tang Qianqian smiled and said: "Businessmen in the world are like eagles hovering in the sky. The money on the ground is flesh and blood. When they smell it, they will naturally pounce down."
Wang Xiao looked thoughtful.
"Then am I the eagle that eats with them, or am I the flesh and blood on the ground?"
