Chapter 855

Zhou Andong took it and looked, raising an eyebrow: "68 million?"

Yuan Hongbiao was really taking him for a fool; he didn't understand the mining industry, but he wasn't an idiot.

Yuan Hongbiao glanced at Zhou Andong's expression, couldn't see anything, and a smile appeared on his face.

"These pieces of equipment are a bit expensive, but most of them are imported. I have a friend who is very capable and specializes in imported equipment; even embargoed high-tech equipment can be obtained.

If you have any doubts, I'll give him a call tonight and let him come over in these few days, let's get together and talk to you about this matter."

Zhou Andong waved his hand with a smile: "No need, 68 million is small change. Besides, can't I trust you, Uncle?"

Yuan Hongbiao was happy, so he drove his Santana, took Zhou Andong and Wu Chao, and went around the mine.

Letting Zhou Andong look, he could see that this was an open-pit mine and quite large, but he didn't understand anything else.

Yuan Hongbiao introduced it, Liang Zhen added from the side, and they were followed by some messy people.

They wandered around until noon before returning to town, and then Yuan Hongbiao arranged lunch at the best restaurant in town.

Yuan Hongbiao wanted to drink a little, but Zhou Andong refused; he had no interest in drinking with Yuan Hongbiao.

With this time, it would be better to go home and play with Su Su.

After finishing the meal, they returned to town, and it could be seen that Yuan Hongbiao was very anxious.

"Dongzi, how does it feel?" Yuan Hongbiao poured a cup of tea for Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Pretty good!"

Yuan Hongbiao took a contract from the drawer: "This is the contract, take a look."

Zhou Andong took the contract and looked at it for a full hour, and there wasn't a single problem.

It was estimated that this guy also knew that it was unlikely to deceive Zhou Andong in the contract, so he didn't play any tricks in the contract.

It was just that there was a big problem that couldn't be ignored, which was that the transfer period of this mine was thirty years, with an annual mining volume of 800,000 tons. And ten years had already passed, leaving only twenty years of contracting rights.

"Uncle, bring me the contract for contracting the limestone mine for me to see."

"Alright!" Yuan Hongbiao took out the contracting contract from the drawer and handed it to Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong took it and looked, and it was the same as the contract Yuan Hongbiao wrote.

But he was taking out 68 million, yet his share was only 76 percent.

To tell the truth, under the same conditions, for 68 million, he could take down three such mines, and still have 100 percent control.

The important thing was that if this contract was signed, after he sent Yuan Hongbiao in, the shares in Yuan Hongbiao's hands would definitely be taken back by the county.

By then, if he wanted to buy this part of the shares, according to the value of this contract, he would be losing too much.

"Uncle!" Zhou Andong took out a cigarette and lit it, "Feelings are feelings, business is business; even close brothers must settle accounts clearly, so it's better to say the ugly words first."

Yuan Hongbiao nodded: "You speak!"

Zhou Andong pondered for a moment: "Although I don't understand the mining industry, I invested 68 million; under normal circumstances, under the same conditions, I could get three such mines, and still have 100 percent control."

Yuan Hongbiao's brows furrowed; the equipment list he opened actually contained some equipment that wasn't needed, and the marked price was several times higher than the normal price.

This 68 million was definitely not his bottom line in his heart, it was just that he really had no way to add more money, because even he himself felt that adding more money was too insulting to Zhou Andong's intelligence.

But now Zhou Andong raised a question, which was something he hadn't thought of; it was only 68 million, what flows out of your fingers, Zhou Andong, is more than that, is it interesting to haggle with me over this?

"What is your meaning?"

Zhou Andong crossed his legs, picked up the ashtray and put it on his legs, then flicked the ash.

"If the contracting period is fifty years, with an annual mining volume of 3.5 million to 4.5 million tons, and you hold 14 percent of the shares, and the deposit is borne by you, then this contract can be signed."

Yuan Hongbiao habitually grabbed the three dice placed on the desk and played with them, clattering.

No matter what the conditions were, he could agree; anyway, once the money was in place, he would also kick Zhou Andong out.

But fifty years of contracting rights, and an annual mining volume of 3.5 million to 4.5 million tons, this made it a bit difficult for him.

He wanted to monopolize this 68 million, but if he re-signed the contracting contract, he would definitely have to give up a portion of the benefits.

But he also understood that if he didn't agree, Zhou Andong would definitely run, and then it would be like fetching water with a bamboo basket, and all the busyness during this period would be in vain.

"Alright!" Yuan Hongbiao gritted his teeth: "I'll go to the county now and handle this matter."

Zhou Andong stood up: "Then that's it,"

The two went out of the office together, and then each got into their cars.

"Ha!"

Zhou Andong sat in the car, thinking about things, and suddenly laughed.

Wu Chao looked at Zhou Andong through the rearview mirror; the boss's mood was good, it seemed he had taken advantage again.

As soon as Zhou Andong arrived home, he saw quite a few people in the courtyard, and quite a few pieces of equipment.

The geological experts from the city had arrived. Zhou Andong walked quickly toward an old man with gray hair in the courtyard.

"Wu Lao, I didn't expect you to come personally."

Seeing Zhou Andong return, Wu Lao said happily: "Chairman Zhou, you can come here to invest and lead the villagers to get rich, so naturally I also have to contribute."

That night, Zhou Andong didn't arrange it at home, but went to town, booked two tables at the restaurant he ate at noon, and for the few days in Zhenxing Village, he would eat here morning and evening.

After finishing the meal, Zhou Andong arranged for Wu Lao and these experts to stay at a hotel in town that looked relatively clean.

They had two vans of their own, and for the distance of more than ten kilometers, as long as it didn't rain, even if the road was hard to walk, they would arrive in twenty minutes.

"Uncle!" That night, Zhou Andong found Yuan Hongzhan, this biological uncle, "Have you ever thought about coming back?"

Yuan Hongzhan was stunned: "Come back for what? Your aunt's parents need someone to take care of them. If we come back and forth, how can we leave two old people over there?"

Zhou Andong organized his language: "I want to establish a mining company to acquire the limestone mine in town, and another coal mine, but I don't have anyone I can trust to use in my hands."

Yuan Hongzhan understood, and just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Zhou Andong.

"Uncle, you listen to me first. Yuan Zhe is going to Beijing with me to study, you don't need to worry. As for the old people, just let my aunt take care of them at home first. When the company gets on the right track, just bring my aunt and the old people over.

Although a small city can't compare to a big city, a small city has its own good points. Changing to a different place also changes the mood, and feeling the life in different places, I think it's pretty good."
