Chapter 234

After coming here, Tao Dan had a personal experience and enjoyed super treatment. It seemed that he wanted someone to pick the stars in the sky.

This gave him great confidence.

But Tao Dan was relatively cautious and did not dare to touch large factories and companies. After more than ten days of so-called inspection in Qingzhao, he found a suitable goal.

Private stores, business is so good, and there is also the potential for chain operations.

Tao Dan believes that his ability and experience are incomparable to local local bullies. This hot-business store will only become more popular in his hands.

Compared to the clever tricks to seize certain large factories when he was in Singapore, he felt that it would be better to do it step by step.

Small places have the benefits of small places.

Wait until the small place here develops and then enters the big city.

Quannan, a provincial capital city, is nearby.

Lu Dong didn't know the background of this foreign businessman, but he always believed that pies would not fall from the sky.

Facing this Tao Dan, he was very careful.

In fact, Du Xiaobing's evaluation of him is quite pertinent, and sometimes he is too cautious.

"Get bigger?" Lu Dong put away his smile and said directly: "I plan to operate a chain, and it is also realizing it step by step."

Tao Dan was a little surprised, but patient: "My father has always missed the food in his hometown very much. He has repeatedly reminded us descendants to carry forward the food in his hometown during his lifetime. After I came to Quannan and Qingzhao, I have been committed to finding inherited specialty foods until I met Boss Lu's century-old heritage here."

With a compliment in his words, he mentioned the traditional characteristics of the only two who can remember the name: "I personally think that Boss Lu's spicy hot pot is as delicious as Quanjude and Goubuli."

Hearing this, Lu Dong quickly said, "It's incomparable! It's far worse than others."

If this weren't a foreigner, he would have thought the other party was cursing.

This is a modern snack that emphasizes service. How can it be compared with a century-old brand?

Can't compare, can't compare.

Tao Dan said it very well in Mandarin: "Boss Lu is modest, and the same delicious food is hidden all over the place, which is tantamount to waste natural resources. We should promote it comprehensively so that more people can be lucky enough to taste the delicious food."

He made a big circle and finally got to the point: "Boss Lv, are you interested in cooperating with companies in Singapore?"

If it were someone else, they would probably be inexplicably excited to hear that there was foreign investment.

Foreign investment often means more resources, more opportunities, and more preferential policies.

But Lu Dong knew very well that foreign businessmen were not philanthropists, nor were they here to help the poor, so he asked, "Mr. Tao wants to invest in my business?"

"I have observed for many days in a row, and Boss Lu's business has the potential to expand!" Since Tao Dan came to find Lu Dong, of course he had learned about it: "Boss Lu currently only has one store, and I am willing to invest to help Boss Lu expand rapidly and realize chain operations."

Lu Dong asked slowly, "I guess Mr. Tao has any requirements?"

Tao Dan said very seriously: "Yes! I ask for at least 51% of the equity!"

As soon as these words were said, Lu Dong directly sentenced Tao Dan to death.

Many cases of foreign investment that were once circulated on the Internet suddenly flashed in my heart.

Many local big brands have introduced foreign capital for various reasons, and foreign capital has been dominant, and in the end they have lost the brands they have built over the years.

Lu Dong looked at Tao Dan, as if thinking, and had no intention of speaking for a moment.

Tao Dan came from abroad and enjoyed many days of super-national treatment. Many consciousnesses were praised even after so many days.

"Boss Lu, my investment is US dollars!" Tao Dan felt his desire for foreign exchange here and verbally wrote a check: "300,000 US dollars, acquire 51% of your shares."

Listening to this price, it seemed very sincere, but Lu Dong couldn't accept it and said, "Mr. Tao, thank you for your kindness. My store and company are not short of funds at present."

This is foreign capital. The person opposite is not the good man Ivan, who is familiar with him. With the social environment and situation in this era, if foreign capital is introduced, if it is not done well, it will cause people to lose the main point.

Similar things are not uncommon.

Tao Dan had his own plans and said, "Boss Lu, I just asked for controlling rights and invest resources to support the expansion of the store chain, and you still have the final say in your daily operations."

Lu Dong didn't believe a word about such coaxing words: "Sorry, Mr. Tao, my company and store have no intention of accepting foreign investment."

Perhaps because of the treatment that was always superior to others when he came here, Tao Dan felt a little unhappy, but he didn't show any expression on his face. He smiled and said, "Boss Lu, accept my funds, your company will become a foreign-funded enterprise and enjoy many preferential treatments."

Lu Dong declined: "I'm very sorry, I have sufficient plans for the company and store development."

A few minutes later, Tao Dan left the shop, his face as usual, and he could not see any difference.

The staff of the China Merchants Bureau came over and asked, "What is Mr. Tao talking about?"

Tao Dan dared to come across the ocean, and was a little scheming. He smiled and said, "The negotiation was not completed, but I have benefited a lot from being able to meet a talent in the catering industry like Boss Lu."

Hearing him say this, the staff felt relieved: "Mr. Tao, are we going back to the county town?"

"Go back!" Tao Dan said with a smile: "Your unit has a banquet at noon. It's too rude to be absent. Let's go there now."

The staff took out their cell phone and called and asked the driver to drive over.

When the car came over, Tao Dan got into the back seat of the car. The car returned from the north to the road. When he turned the central intersection, because it was almost noon, he could see the sign under the Lu's Malatang with red background and white characters through the car window. People rushed into the glass door like a tide.

Tao Dan suddenly thought that if he could have such a good business in his two hotels in Singapore, why would he travel across the ocean to take risks?

However, this land is really full of vitality and is so friendly to foreign businessmen like him.

Lu Dong sat in the store, wondering where the county attracted foreign businessmen. Don’t foreign businessmen cooperate with big companies? Come to invest in your own small shop, will it not lose money?

In his eyes, Tao Dan is still a foreigner even though she has black hair and yellow skin.

Singaporean Lu Dong shook his head, and he had no intention of cooperating with this foreigner from beginning to end.

Lü's Catering Company is getting on the right track step by step, and having a big Ivan is enough.

Aunt Qi, who has always pretended to be transparent, came over and asked Lu Dong: "Dongzi, the foreigner just now wanted to buy half of your company for $300,000?"

Aunt Qi is not an outsider, so there is no need for Lu Dong to be careless and smile: "That's what he means."

"How much is our money for $300,000?" Aunt Qi was curious.

Lu Dong said casually: "It's about 2 million."

Aunt Qi widened her eyes: "2 million? Your company is so valuable?"

Lu Dong just laughed and didn't say much. Currently, the two stores of Hamburger Royal and Lu's Malatang have stable daily operating income of more than 15,000 yuan, while the latter rarely drops by 9,000 yuan.

Not to mention expansion, even if he wants to sell these two stores, he can't buy half of the equity of $300,000.

Lu Dong had no intention of selling it at all, let alone controlling stake.

Because Tao Dan was a foreign businessman, Lu Dong thought about it and called Officer Zhao and said briefly.

Officer Zhao didn't take it seriously because it was not a big deal. In most people's minds, Lu Dong opened a small shop, which was more popular at best.

Lu Dong immediately threw this matter behind his head, and took some time before noon to ride a motorcycle to the Nanbian Transportation Technical School and negotiated to rent a minibus.

This weekend, Lu Chun and Fang Yan got engaged. Not only did the woman's parents come, but her close relatives also wanted to come.

According to the customs on both sides, the man must send a car to pick it up.

Six or seven years ago, it was a carriage or tractor, but now it has to be a car.

Besides, if you really want to get a carriage to pick it up, you have to set off in the early morning.

In the early years, the carriage picked up the bride and started in the middle of the night. After all, the carriage was slow. After rushing over to pick up the bride, it was dawn.

Lu Dong had a vague impression that when Uncle Qi picked up Aunt Qi, he drove the carriage himself.

At noon, Lu Dong went to the School of Physical Education and had lunch with Song Na.

The two of them made a meal and found a quiet place in the restaurant.

The quality of school food is average these days, but in addition to the food itself, it depends on who you eat with.

Song Na asked for a fried hairtail fish, carefully picked out the meat, and put it on the lid of the lunch box in front of Lu Dong.

Lu Dong ate the fish and said, "Black egg, are you going to spoil me?"

Song Na's light-mai-colored face was full of smiles: "If you spoil it, no one will snatch it from me." She asked: "Brother will get engaged tomorrow, will you not come?"

Lu Dong said: "I guess the relatives of Sister Fang's family want to see the house and may go to Xuefu Wenyuan."

Song Na wiped her hands with a tissue: "This weekend, my aunt's cousin came back from the county town and asked me to accompany her to buy things in the county town. If you have any questions, call me."

Lu Dong said, "Okay."

…………

County town, guesthouse, No. 1 banquet hall.

Today, the China Merchants Association held a banquet to entertain foreign merchants who came to Qingzhao for investment, and also invited some enterprises and businessmen in the county who were close to the China Merchants Association to participate.

The leader has a good idea. If the business owners in the county can negotiate cooperation with foreign investors at the dinner table, it will also be conducive to the development of investment promotion work in the county.

The leaders of the Investment Promotion Bureau and the above-mentioned leaders certainly want to allow foreign capital to land in Qingzhao, take root, sprout, develop and grow, and feed back to Qingzhao, a traditional agricultural county.

Because of his special relationship, Wang Dong also attended the banquet and happened to be sitting at the same table as Tao Dan, who had drunk once before.

After a glass of wine, Wang Dong asked in Mandarin with a Qingzhao accent: "Mr. Tao has been here in Qingzhao for a while. Are there any projects that are optimistic?"

He has been in business for many years and has a big head. If he can work with foreign capital, he might have a good opportunity to make a lot of money.

Tao Dan knew that this was a relative of a county leader and said, "I was optimistic about a project and went to discuss it this morning. I didn't discuss it, and the other party was very resistant."

Wang Dong smiled: "I don't know what project it is?"

Tao Dan said: "Do you know Lu Dong? I want to invest in his catering company, but he is not interested in foreign investment."

Wang Dong immediately thought of the dark young man and echoed: "That person is very rigid."
