Twenty Years in Business

Chapter 1283 Reluctance

The two brothers sat on the sofa, each holding a cigarette.

Zhang Xiaobai was too familiar with his second brother, and he could tell from his expression that something must have happened, and it was not a small matter.

"Second brother, what's the matter?"

Niu Er took a puff of cigarette and said, "What do you think of Liu Jian and Ling Feng?"

Liu Jian, from the office director to the current vice president, has been standing by Zhang Xiaobai from the beginning, and was also promoted by Zhang Xiaobai.

Ling Feng, from an ordinary worker directly to the director of the steel mill and then to the current vice president, although he recommended himself, it was inseparable from Zhang Xiaobai's appreciation.

Zhang Xiaobai frowned, the second brother only mentioned the two vice presidents, there must be a reason.

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Liu Jian is smooth in dealing with things, humble and able to endure hardships, with high IQ and EQ, and is good at handling interpersonal relationships in government agencies; Ling Feng is a little younger and has some edge, but he is quite honest, has both technical and management skills, and has good abilities."

Niu Er said helplessly: "I mean their character, what do you think of them?"

Zhang Xiaobai said: "I think they are OK! They are not bad. Second brother, what do you mean?"

Niu Er said: "Xiaobai, maybe I am too suspicious, I always feel that these two people are not honest, especially Liu Jian."

Hu Zi said this before, and he had a bad impression of Liu Jian. Now that the second brother also said it, Zhang Xiaobai had to pay attention.

Zhang Xiaobai asked, "Brother, what did you find?"

Niu Er shook his head and said, "No, it's because I didn't find anything that I think it's abnormal. In addition, in the company, these two people kept a certain distance. I always felt that something was wrong, as if they were trying to cover up something."

Zhang Xiaobai left Dengfeng, but Niu Er did not leave. The reason he stayed was to take care of this family.

Niu Er was a security guard, but not the security guard of Dengfeng Steel, but the security guard of Zhang Xiaobai.

In other words, he is still Zhang Xiaobai's bodyguard, protecting not his physical safety, but his industry.

So he is very concerned about some things.

Zhang Xiaobai said, "I'll be more careful in the future!"

Niu Er patted Zhang Xiaobai on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you can't have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. Be careful in everything. Not everyone can be our friend. People's hearts are hidden, and even X-rays can't see through them!"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "With our sister-in-law here, there should be no problem. Even if Liu Jian has other intentions, he can't play in front of our sister-in-law."

Niu Er sighed and said, "Sister-in-law is smart, but now she is focusing on the child. I'm afraid of negligence. Besides, sister-in-law has a very good impression of Liu Jian, so we can't say anything else."

Speaking of children, Zhang Xiaobai thought of another thing and asked seriously, "Second brother, do you really not want children?"

Niu Er smiled and said, "No, it's good to be alone!"

Zhang Xiaobai was about to say something when his cell phone rang. It was Zhao Tianhao calling.

"Brother Hao!"

"Xiaobai, where are you?"

"Just finished drinking, I'm at home!"

"Come to Wolong Village, if you have something to do, come by yourself!"

"Brother Hao, what's wrong?"

"You'll know when you get here!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xiaobai frowned tightly. Hearing Brother Hao's tone, he seemed to be in a bad mood.

After telling his wife, Zhang Xiaobai took a taxi to Wolong Village. Zhao Tianhao asked him to go alone.

At five o'clock, Zhang Xiaobai came to Wolong Village and walked into the former Tianyu Mining.

The big yard at the time of the wedding, which was once a very lively place, is now a little depressed.

Zhao Tianhao and Cheng Jianhui looked at Zhang Xiaobai with a smile at the entrance of the cafeteria.

The three brothers hugged.

Zhang Xiaobai asked: "Brother Hao, what's the matter?"

Zhao Tianhao said: "Let's go and talk while drinking!"

It was still a small private room. Zhang Xiaobai had eaten many meals and drank a lot of wine here.

There were several home-cooked dishes, several cooked and cold dishes, and several bottles of Moutai on the table.

Cheng Jianhui smiled and said, "Xiaobai, this is made by Brother Hao himself."

The three brothers sat down, and Zhang Xiaobai opened the white wine. He was the youngest, so this should have been his job, but when pouring the wine, Zhao Tianhao grabbed it and filled three glasses with wine.

Zhang Xiaobai was a little dazed, his face was solemn.

Zhao Tianhao raised the cup and said, "Brother, let's go!"

He said let's go, meaning one cup at a time. He had never drunk like this before, and he had never poured wine before.

Zhang Xiaobai didn't take the cup and said, "Brother Hao, what happened? If you don't explain clearly, I won't drink this glass of wine!"

Cheng Jianhui grinned and said, "You silly brother, what are you talking about? Brother Hao asked you to drink, but you didn't drink?"

Zhang Xiaobai shook his head slowly and said solemnly, "Brother Hao, tell me, what happened?"

Zhao Tianhao was silent for a moment and said, "I wanted to tell you after drinking, but since you see it, just tell me, Xiaobai, we brothers are leaving!"

Zhang Xiaobai's mind buzzed, "Leave? Where to?"

Zhao Tianhao said, "Back to Luocheng, our roots are in Luocheng, we have to go back, today we sell the mine!"

Zhang Xiaobai clearly heard these words, but he always felt that he didn't hear them clearly, and he didn't react at all, just sitting at the table blankly.

The whole person seemed to be stupid.

After a long time, Zhang Xiaobai rubbed his face with both hands and rubbed back the tears that were about to flow.

He took a deep breath, raised his glass, and grinned, "Brother Hao, Brother Hui, let's go!"

After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank a glass of wine.

When he lowered his head again, tears finally flowed out.

"Brother Hao, Brother Hui, can't we just leave?"

Over the years, even though Zhang Xiaobai was sometimes away from Tangcheng, and even though they met from time to time, as long as they were around, it was easy to meet.

It won't be so convenient to meet each other this time.

Cheng Jianhui drank a glass of wine and stretched out his arm to wipe his tears.

Zhao Tianhao also drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Two good-for-nothing brothers are not separated by life and death. We will come back often!"

Zhang Xiaobai calmed down, poured three glasses of wine, and asked, "Why is it so sudden?"

Zhao Tianhao said: "Didn't you call me a few days ago, saying that the steel industry might collapse? It just so happened that a big boss from outside wanted to buy our mine. The price of steel has been falling in the past two days. I thought I might as well sell it. "

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said: "How much did it cost? If it really collapses, that guy will really be taken advantage of!"

Zhao Tianhao stretched out his hand and said, "Mining plus mineral processing, a total of 500 million."

Cheng Jianhui said: "What kind of taking advantage of me? For this price, I'm still thanking Brother Hao!"

The three brothers continued to toast, Zhang Xiaobai and Cheng Jianhui did it, but they didn't let Zhao Tianhao do it.

"Thank you for taking advantage of me!"

At this time, they don't know whether they were taken advantage of or not, because they don't know how the steel industry will develop.

The reason why Zhao Tianhao chose to sell the mine was because he unswervingly believed in Zhang Xiaobai's words. Why would he need this if it was going to collapse? The most important thing is that someone happens to take over, so give it to him.
