Chapter 125
Several people drove through the factory area towards the office building. A red sports car whizzed past them on the left and rumbled towards the door.
"what?"
Bai Yaoyao turned her head to look in the direction the car was passing, frowning slightly.
"What's wrong?" Ling Yi, who was also sitting in the back seat, turned back in confusion, looked at Bai Yaoyao and asked.
"Nothing, I think I've seen the guy I just drove past before."
If she was not mistaken, the person who just drove past should be the woman who was showing off at "Chunjiang Huayuecheng" before. Unexpectedly, she would meet her here.
"We're here!" After Lingmao parked the car, Zhou Chen reminded them, then got out of the car first and helped Bai Yaoyao open the door.
After the few people got off the car, the middle-aged man who had just stood at the entrance of the office building came over. He looked at Zhou Chen and Ling Yi and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, are you Assistant Zhou?"
Zhou Chen hurriedly went up to him, "Yes! I'm Zhou Chen, who are you?"
Several people looked at this very thin middle-aged man. He was wearing a slightly yellowed white T-shirt with a gray suit jacket on the outside, and slightly washed-out jeans and sneakers. There was a dark circle under his eyes, deep sunken cheeks, high cheekbones, and he was so thin that he looked out of shape.
"Mr. Zhou, hello! I'm An Shang, the boss of Anxi Winery. I was the one who talked to you on the phone before. We agreed to meet at 10 o'clock, and now the time is almost up. I guess it should be you." An Shang looked at Ling Yi, Bai Yaoyao and the other two, "Who are these people?"
Zhou Chen turned sideways, making way for Ling Yi and introduced him, "This is Mr. Ling from our White Dragon Horse."
An Shang's eyes lit up, and he reached out and held Ling Yi's right hand, which was placed at his side. He shook it up and down, and said repeatedly, "Hello, President Ling! Hello, President Ling! I have long admired President Ling's name, and I didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet him today. It is really my honor."
Ling Yi nodded slightly and said lightly, "Hello."
Zhou Chen continued to introduce, "This is Miss Bai Yaoyao, our company's special assistant."
An Shang looked at Bai Yaoyao with a flash of amazement in his eyes, but then he immediately restrained himself and did not take the initiative to shake hands. He just nodded and said, "Miss Bai is really the most beautiful assistant I have ever seen. She is more beautiful than a female star!"
I didn’t expect that Mr. Ling, the God of Wealth in the investment world, would actually bring beautiful women with him even when he goes on business trips.
Seeing that Zhou Chen did not take the initiative to introduce the civet cat again, An Shang did not ask any more questions, but quickly invited them into the building.
"Come on, come on, please come in, I'll take you to my office to discuss it in detail.
Mr. Ling, Assistant Zhou, and two beauties, please come this way!"
As soon as they entered the door, An Shang enthusiastically made tea for them.
Ling Yi looked around. An Shang's office was very simple. There was nothing on the desk except a computer. There were only a few books scattered on the antique shelf behind him, and they seemed to be covered with dust.
The only thing that showed signs of use was the coffee table in front of the sofa. It must have just received guests. There was a faint lipstick mark on the wall of one of the teacups.
Seeing Ling Yi's eyes noticed the teacup on the table, An Shang's eyes flashed, and he quickly stepped forward to take the cup with lipstick marks and put it aside.
With a casual smile on his face, he said, "I'm so sorry. I just sent off the previous investor and didn't have time to clean up, and you guys, Mr. Ling, are here!"
As he spoke, his hands kept moving, handing the brewed tea to each of them one by one.
"Investors?" Ling Yi raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yes! Just like you, Mr. Ling, she is also optimistic about our Anxi Winery and wants to acquire us." An Shang smiled, "It's a foreign-funded company. She just left. If you had come a few minutes earlier, you might have run into her."
Bai Yaoyao thought of the sports car that just passed by them. It turned out that the young lady came here to discuss cooperation with An Shang...
Seeing that An Shang seemed to have misunderstood their purpose, Zhou Chen quickly opened his mouth to explain, "We are not..."
Ling Yi waved his hand to stop Zhou Chen from speaking.
He looked at An Shang with interest, "Oh? Did you reach an agreement on the cooperation with Mr. An?"
An Shang grinned, "Hahaha, they are sincere. I'm still considering it. Besides, I still need to hear your conditions, Mr. Ling."
Ling Yi raised his eyebrows. "Can I ask Mr. An why you are considering selling the Anxi Winery? As far as I know, the reputation of the Anxi Winery in Guizhou Province is still good, but it lacks corresponding marketing, and its products are relatively single. As long as these two points can be improved, the Anxi Winery should be able to revive."
An Shang sighed, his face full of helplessness, "Boss Ling, you don't know that our Anxi Winery is really in financial difficulty right now! Forget about developing new products and doing marketing. I can't even pay the workers' wages! I've been in arrears with them for several months, and now I've asked the workers to go back and rest and find something else to do.
Alas, I have to sell the winery passed down from my ancestors. I am really forced by reality to do so. Even a penny can bring down a hero..."
Seeing how sad he looked, they didn't ask any more questions.
Before coming, several people already knew that Anxi Winery’s current market share was not high, but they did not expect it to be so bad.
An Shang quickly adjusted his mood and looked at Ling Yi with a smile, "I wonder what price Mr. Ling is willing to offer? I dare to guarantee that, apart from other things, the location of our Anxi Winery is definitely the best in the wine town! The transportation is convenient, and the equipment in the factory was imported before. We have maintained it very well and it can be used as soon as it is turned on. Moreover, the workers in the factory are all veterans in winemaking for decades. If Mr. Ling takes over, he only needs to buy the raw materials and start work immediately!"
Ling Yi was about to reply when there was a knock on the door.
Several people responded and looked over.
An Shang also looked towards the door in confusion.
He has made appointments with two investors today, so who else would come knocking on the door?
An Shang stood up and walked to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he was startled and wanted to close the door immediately.
However, the person standing at the door seemed to know what he was thinking. He quickly put his crutch in front of the door, blocking it from closing.
"Hmph! Brat! You must have done something wrong. You want to hide when you see me! Can you hide?!"
The old man stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, and walked in tremblingly without paying any attention to An Shang who was standing there like a fool.
After entering the room, he found Ling Yi and the others sitting on the sofa. He was stunned at first, then suddenly seemed to think of something, his face changed drastically, and he snorted unhappily, "You guys should leave quickly! Even if our Anxi Winery goes bankrupt, we will not sell it to traitors like you!"
Ling Yi and Bai Yaoyao looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
When An Shang heard the old man's words, he finally came to his senses, and hurriedly stepped forward and called out to the old man.
"Grandpa! Don't talk nonsense! You're ruining my good deeds!"
