Chapter 205 No Friends Forever

Regarding the disappointment message sent to me by Xu Yijiang early in the morning, I typed it back to him: "Brother Jiang, I can listen to you in many things at work and can compromise, but I can't make concessions on this matter. I made it very clear last night that Inspur Villa is priceless and not sold."

After replying to the message from Xu Yijiang, I simply put down my phone as if nothing had happened, turned on the computer and started to prepare for office work. In fact, I had already thought about it the night before. If there was really that necessary, even if Yu Zun was implicated because of this, I would do my best to protect Inspur Villa!

In this life, I don’t want to do many big things, but it is definitely one to do Inspur Villa.

...

Three days passed, and during these three days, I also took most of the time to work on Inspur Villa. However, since I replied to Xu Yijiang that day, he has never looked for me again. Today is the fourth day, and I didn’t deliberately choose a good day because I didn’t want to delay it anymore.

After everything was ready, Inspur Villa finally ushered in the official business day on this day! At such an important moment, if I didn’t send a notice, many people from the outside world would know about it, which would be too inconvenient, so I simply “take the initiative” and sent all the acquaintances around me to the invitation.

It was 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and Inspur Villa was very lively. I arranged a total of thirty tables to welcome them. Because it was Saturday, the people came quite a lot. Of course, I brought Li Wendong to witness this important moment. The visitors included Qiu Yue, Qiao Wenxuan, Mandi, Zhao Long, and Sun Zekun.

Qiao Wenxuan and Qiu Yue arrived almost at the same time. Li Ruoling followed me and went out to receive them together, but when I saw them, I was really "shocked" me.

"Mr. Zhou, today is a good day for Inspur Villa to be officially opened, so let me join the villa in another way!" Qiao Wenxuan smiled and said to the two people behind him: "Come on, carry the plaque in."

That's right, what shocked me was Qiao Wenxuan's operation. He brought me a two-meter-long plaque, which was covered with a red cloth. I walked over and lifted it up and saw four golden words "Inspur Villa" suddenly appeared in front of me.

"I'll go! I'm almost blind. Mr. Qiao, your move is a big deal!"

"That's a must. I've been looking forward to Inspur Villa for so long. Not to mention anything else, this store skills must be done well. Dongli, I'll probably come to this villa frequently in the future, because I'll basically stay in this area to watch the progress of the project."

"It's my honor to be here!"

I thanked Qiao Wenxuan, and then asked Li Ruoling to bring the two brothers to the plaque in, "Oh, by the way, why are you two coming together?" As I spoke, I handed Qiao Wenxuan and Qiu Yue a cigarette.

Qiu Yue smiled and said, "I happened to meet him on the road. Today is really lively!" After that, he took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to me, "I can't give a gift as big as Wen Xuan now. I can only give you the meaning. I wish Inspur Villa a prosperous business and a smooth and happy life!"

"Yeah, they are all my brothers, why are you polite? It's sunny outside, so you can go in and sit inside first." After they went in, I asked someone to help put the plaque sent by Qiao Wenxuan on the gate. I couldn't help but take out my cell phone and take a photo of this scene, and then sent it to Ning Bingrou, who was far away in the United States.

Me: "The villa officially opened today, but only two parts of the area have been put into use. On such an important day, it would be great if I were by my side and witnessed it with me."

After I sent Ning Bingrou a message, I was immersed in joy for less than a while. When I looked up, I saw a car not far away stopping and two figures that I didn't want to see so much.

I, Xu Yijiang and Luo Qihua, usually come uninvited, and we call them: uninvited guests. I don’t know what they were hiding when they chose to come at this time today.

No matter what happens, I naturally can't express my feelings. So I kept my original smile and looked straight at them and walked towards me.

"Mr. Zhou, I heard that Inspur Villa has opened today, so I will come to congratulate you." Luo Qihua turned his head and Xu Yijiang next to him understood. He took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to me, and gave me a look during this period.

"I'm so kind, please accept Mr. Zhou's smile. I hope Inspur Villa's business will be prosperous and get better and better!"

"Thank you, Mr. Luo and Mr. Xu, for coming to support you. The visitor is a guest, please invite me inside." After saying that, I made a "please" gesture and signaled them to go in first.

Not long after, I also went into the villa and the banquet officially began. Standing on the stage, I cleared my throat and picked up the microphone.

"Dear guests, I am Zhou Dongli. Today is the official opening of Inspur Villa. I am honored that you can give me this face and support you. The good wine and food are ready. You must have a good time today."

I paused for a moment, walked to the other side of the stage, and continued: "At present, Inspur Villa has developed two major areas, namely the commercial area and the amusement park. The products in these two areas have been renovated. If you are interested, you can find my assistant to pay the deposit today and rent the shop one step earlier!"

On the stage, I roughly introduced the current situation of Inspur Villa, so I simply started doing business today. As the saying goes: When the business starts, I earned money from acquaintances.

The banquet began soon, and I went to the table to toast. I was destined to be drunk tonight. As for the money collection, I left it to Li Ruoling to help me deal with it. It doesn’t matter whether there is any or not. Anyway, this wave of advertisements has been put on.

It was eight o'clock in the evening, and more than two hours had passed. Some people began to leave one after another, because after all, it was still a distance from the city.

I was slightly drunk and could finally take a rest. I didn’t eat much food this night, but I drank a lot of wine. No one could stop me in this situation, so I could only do it myself.

I sat on the chair and lit a cigarette to relieve my drunkenness. But I just sat down for a while, footsteps came from beside me. I turned around and saw that it was Xu Yijiang and Luo Qihua. Seeing this scene, I really wanted to laugh. Is this still the elder brother Xu Yijiang I know? He used to be so mighty, but in front of Luo Qihua, he was like a little follower.

"Mr. Zhou, can you still withstand it?"

When Luo Qihua asked this, of course I could hear that his words meant a double meaning. The literal meaning was to ask me if I could withstand drinking. The deep meaning... it implies that I could afford to eat such a big villa by myself?

"It's okay." I stood up and smiled, "There are too many guests tonight. I have some inappropriate greetings. Please forgive me, Mr. Luo."

"It's understandable." Luo Qihua glanced at Xu Yijiang next to him and continued, "It's getting late, so I'll go back first. Mr. Xu may have something to say to you, and you can talk to you."

"Mr. Luo walked slowly." I almost blurted out that I "walk slowly but not send off", but fortunately I stopped the car.

After Luo Qihua left, Xu Yijiang walked to the chair next to me and sat down, then lit a cigarette. He was silent for a while, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

I also sat down and said, "Brother Jiang, do you always have something to tell me, right?"

"You have guessed that it was Mr. Luo who asked me to bring you a message." Xu Yijiang bounced the ashes and took a sip of cigarettes and continued: "Mr. Luo invested in my Manjiang Tower. Many years ago, he represented Blue Capital invested in Manjiang Tower. What he meant was... Since you were unwilling to agree to sell Inspur Villa to him, then let me withdraw my shares and leave Yuzun, otherwise... he would withdraw his investment in Manjiang Tower."

"Dongli, if you have a choice, I don't want such a thing to happen at all. In the face of huge capital power, we can only be slaughtered by others. I really can't understand. Even if you refuse to sell Inspur Villa, if you sell the company's shares and let Mr. Luo invest, this is like a tiger with wings to your development. Can't you give in? "

I know that Xu Yijiang's true feelings when he spoke were indeed for my own good from his perspective. Maybe many people have agreed long ago, but I am just such an "alternative" and pure thing, so I must keep it pure.

"I can understand and understand Mr. Xu's meaning. If I hadn't had the principles in my heart, I would have agreed long ago, but... investment and shares are not as simple as eating. Some things are not that easy to vomit after eating. At this point, I believe Mr. Xu can understand what I mean."

Xu Yijiang stood up, he took off his last sip of cigarette and looked at me silently for a while, "It's up to you, then... I can only say 'sorry'. Tomorrow I will have someone prepare a contract to send it to you, and I will not be able to continue to be a business partner, but I hope I won't become an enemy. Dongli, please take care of yourself!"

After he finished speaking, he blew the cigarette butts on the ground with his fingertips and then turned around and left. When he stepped on his feet, it was not only the spark of the cigarette butts, but also our path to cooperation.

At this moment, I deeply realized the saying I had heard before: In the business world, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests!
