Chapter 872

Director Gao, although I don't know much about banking business, even a county branch's quota is only this little, right?

Our county Finance Bureau indeed has some difficulties; we chose your Industrial and Commercial Bank because we value your strength, and I still hope you can start from the actual situation and give us some support.

Our loan is legal and compliant; we will strictly observe the relevant procedures, submitting all required documents without omission.

Su Yang's posture had already been lowered considerably.

But Director Gao still wore a troubled expression and said: "We actually only have this little quota; there's really nothing we can do. Why don't you discuss with a few other banks? If each contributes a few million, at least we'd have twenty or thirty million. Moreover, for such loans, the rural credit cooperatives should have a more ample quota."

Su Yang said: "Alright, since that's the case, then I won't disturb Director Gao."

After leaving the bank, Shi Haoyun said indignantly: "Although their bank has its own independent system and is not under our local government's jurisdiction, after all, in our Lieshan County, you personally showed up, yet they gave no face at all. Moreover, I think their bank president is definitely there, just unwilling to see you or give us a loan. How could a bank possibly have only a five-million-yuan loan quota?"

Su Yang said: "It's not certain they'd give much face to the local government; of course, they will also be punished for such disrespect toward the locality."

After Su Yang finished speaking, he directly dialed the phone number of the little witch Liu Zixuan.

After receiving Su Yang's call, the little witch Liu Zixuan said: "I was saying, what good thing do you have now? I won't take on high-risk ventures; the agricultural trade market has been doing well lately—any other projects? I also want to follow and invest a bit."

Su Yang also thought so, and said: "We are currently planning to invest in planting and breeding industries, requiring a total fund of three hundred million yuan, and this is only the initial investment; more may be needed later."

Liu Zixuan felt a bit embarrassed: "I was just speaking offhand, didn't expect you actually had a project prepared for me, but I can't come up with three hundred million. However, this is your county's project, and now I'd rather invest my own money."

Su Yang chuckled and said: "If you have no money, you can ask the bank for a loan; taking a loan for investment isn't shameful. At the same time, I also want to take out a loan in our county to invest in this project, so we could form a joint venture—our county government takes a share, you take a share; isn't that good?"

Liu Zixuan's eyes shifted, and he said: "There's no such thing as a free lunch; I don't believe you can't find an investor. Speak up—what's your motive?"

Su Yang laughed: "You've made quite a bit of progress lately, not bad—I indeed have something I need your help with. I recall that last time we were at the club, you mentioned there was a daughter of the central bank governor, right?"

Liu Zixuan said: "See, I knew you had something going on; back then I even told you, it seems you really don't value people. Of course she's not a bank president's daughter, but she can be—she's the daughter of a vice president, named Jin Yuting."

Su Yang said: "Oh, then I happen to have a matter that needs help, but using such a big favor for this small thing feels like a loss to me, so I don't want to owe this favor—can you understand what I mean?"

Liu Zixuan said: "You're really getting sharper these days, unwilling to suffer even a slight loss. Alright, then I understand; wait for my news."

Shi Haoyun, listening to Su Yang's phone call, thought to himself: Indeed, one must not offend this boss; people say revenge doesn't wait overnight, but he takes revenge without even waiting a minute.

Even if the bank is an independent system, so what? If you don't give me face, I can still deal with you. This is the naked reality. Even if Su Yang's actions seem a bit overbearing, in his view this is the most correct and effective way; otherwise, being constantly looked down upon by those bank officials accustomed to being high and mighty, they'd probably keep pushing their noses onto their faces.

After only about less than ten minutes, Liu Zixuan's phone rang back, and he said: "The branch director or president you mentioned? They don't even know him, can't reach him. But I called the president of your Ganzhou Sheng branch; to give you full face, they plan to come to your county for an inspection three days later."

"There's no need for me to say more about the follow-up, right? Take this opportunity to borrow as much as possible. After all, I already owe them this favor; we should use it all at once. I plan to borrow fifty million, then invest it into the project you mentioned—don't forget me when the time comes."

Su Yang said: "Thanks; wait until I get to Jingcheng and I'll treat you to a meal."

Liu Zixuan said: "Oh come on, who cares about your treat? When you return to Jincheng, I'm sure a pile of things will keep you busy. Now everyone in the Jingcheng circle knows you and Ruo Han are getting married; the Zhou and Qiao families are busy preparing the wedding, while you're still here working. Tell me, do you men have nothing in your heads but work?"

Su Yang said: "It's not that I don't want to go back and help with preparations; it's mainly that someone like me, once back, what could I actually help with? Besides, I've already talked about this with Ruo Han—let alone me, even she can only watch from the sidelines; many things aren't up to us to decide. Even hosting guests, we can't call the shots, but I could forcibly take charge and invite someone."

Liu Zixuan said: "Who is it? To make you value them so much."

Su Yang: "I want to invite you; I can't decide on inviting others, but can't I decide on inviting you? Especially since you've always helped me, it makes sense both emotionally and rationally."

He was just joking; the reason saying inviting Liu Zixuan is definitely possible is because this involves ties with the Liu family—Liu Zhengyang will certainly be on the invitation list and will definitely attend. As a daughter of the Liu family, she will naturally be considered too, so not saying this favor would be a waste.

Liu Zixuan laughed 'hehehe' and said: "You're really getting more sly; by the time your wedding comes, even if you don't invite me, I'll shamelessly squeeze in—could they possibly stop me? Alright, no more joking; I have other things to do, just seize the opportunity when the time comes."

After hanging up, Su Yang felt immensely relieved in his heart; a mere county Industrial and Commercial Bank branch president daring to treat him this way—there's definitely something going on. However, he doesn't want to bother with it, nor does he have time to wrangle with such small fry here.

Just as Su Yang and his group stepped out, Director Gao made a call: "Hello, Leader, you were right to say so—Su Yang actually came to our bank to apply for a loan, and he opened with three hundred million, quite a big hand, but I directly turned him down."

"Of course, I haven't offended him to death; it's not that I won't lend him money, mainly I told him our quota here is only five million; if it exceeds that, we're willing but unable."

The person on the other end said: "Good, that's exactly the effect I want—with such a huge funding gap, I want him to hit walls everywhere, then I'll step in to resolve it."

"When the opportunity arises, later I'll say a few words for you at the branch; you should be promoted to vice president next year—shouldn't be a problem."
