Chapter 765

Leaving Zhang Kaishan's office, Su Xinghui did not go home directly. He went to the Agricultural Bank of China. He wanted to go there to inquire about applying for a loan.

A loan of 1 million is not a small amount. If you apply for a loan from the Pengwan Town Agricultural Bank business office, they cannot decide, and finally it will be reported to the county branch. Instead of this, it is better to come directly to the county branch to apply, which is faster.

At the gate of the Agricultural Bank, just as Su Xinghui was about to enter, the old man in the guard room called out: "Hey, young man, you can't enter here casually. Which unit are you from? Who are you looking for?"

Su Xinghui said: "Grandpa, I am the mayor of Pengwan Town. I am here today to find your President Cai to handle things."

"Mayor of Pengwan Town?" The old man looked at Su Xinghui suspiciously and muttered: "Is there such a young mayor?"

Su Xinghui took out his work permit and handed it to the old man: "You take a look, this is my work permit."

The old man put on his reading glasses, looked at the work permit, and nodded: "It really is the mayor, but you still have to wait a moment, I will call our President Cai to ask."

The old man made a phone call: "President Cai? I am Old Liu. There is a young man at the door looking for you. He said he is the mayor of Pengwan Town. Yes, yes, yes, his surname is Su. Oh, let him go up? That's good."

The old man hung up the phone, and his attitude was much kinder. He returned the work permit to Su Xinghui: "Mayor Su, you go up, President Cai's office is on the third floor."

Su Xinghui nodded and thanked him, then entered the door and went to the third floor. President Cai was already waiting for him at the stairs. Seeing him go upstairs, President Cai took the initiative to stretch out his hands and held Su Xinghui's hand: "Mayor Su, you really came, why didn't you call?"

President Cai naturally knew Su Xinghui. He had attended meetings with Su Xinghui more than once. Su Xinghui is also a popular figure in Shangjun County now. It would be strange if President Cai didn't know him.

Su Xinghui said: "President Cai is polite, I just passed by here and decided to find you on a whim."

President Cai smiled and said: "Then go to my office and sit down."

After entering President Cai's office, President Cai personally brewed a cup of tea for Su Xinghui. When he put the teacup on the coffee table in front of Su Xinghui, Su Xinghui leaned over and said: "President Cai is too polite!"

President Cai laughed and said: "Mayor Su is too polite. Such a young and promising talent like you, I, Old Cai, am happy to see you. What kind of politeness is this? Don't leave at noon later, eat in our bank canteen. Our canteen master's craftsmanship is good, not worse than the People's Restaurant, and I, Old Cai, can accompany you to drink a few glasses."

Su Xinghui said: "Is it necessary to eat? Isn't this flood prevention? I haven't been home for a few months, and I plan to go home for a meal."

President Cai said: "It's okay, you shouldn't go back to Pengwan today, right? Just go home for dinner in the evening, it's a deal, eat here at noon. If you don't like eating in the canteen? Let's go to the People's Restaurant."

Seeing President Cai so enthusiastic, Su Xinghui couldn't refuse his kindness, after all, he still had things to ask President Cai, so he nodded: "President Cai, thank you, then eat in your canteen, don't eat outside."

President Cai said happily: "That's good. By the way, Mayor Su, do you have anything to do with me?"

Su Xinghui told President Cai about his plan to build a vegetable wholesale market in the town and wanted to apply for a loan. After hearing this, President Cai pondered for a while, and then he said: "It seems that many vegetable cooperatives were established in your town this year, right? It seems that you have borrowed a lot of money from our Agricultural Bank."

Su Xinghui nodded and said: "Yes, those cooperatives borrowed money from your Pengwan business office. Speaking of which, I still want to thank President Cai for your strong support for our Pengwan Town."

President Cai smiled and said: "Mayor Su is too polite. We are originally the Agricultural Bank, and supporting agricultural development is our duty. This is not support. However..."

Su Xinghui said: "However what?"

President Cai said: "Actually, it's nothing big. A loan of 1 million is not much for our county branch. It's just that it's almost the end of the year, and this year's loan quota has been used up. Can this 1 million loan be delayed for a few months and come to borrow it in January?"

Su Xinghui pondered. It is not impossible to delay this loan for a few months, because the project funds do not need to be in place at one time. In the early stage, there are 300,000 from the town government and 700,000 from the county government, which is enough. It is also possible to borrow this 1 million next year, and it happens to be able to save a few months of interest.

Seeing Su Xinghui pondering and not speaking, President Cai hurriedly said: "Mayor Su, or I will think of a way to ask the city branch for some loan quotas, it should be no problem."

Su Xinghui said: "No, no, no, President Cai, I don't mean that. Anyway, our project funds do not need to be in place at one time. This 1 million loan can be borrowed next year. We can just save a few months of interest."

The current loan interest rate is nearly 1.1 for one year. If it is a long-term loan, the interest rate is higher. For a principal of 1 million, the interest for one month is more than 10,000, which is not a small amount.

President Cai could not help but breathe a long sigh of relief. The loan quota of their bank this year is indeed not enough, but he really does not want to offend Su Xinghui. Not only does he not want to offend Su Xinghui, he also wants to have a good relationship with Su Xinghui.

Just kidding, Su Xinghui is young and promising, with a bright future and a deep background. Who doesn't want to have a good relationship with such a person? President Cai is not yet 40 years old this year, and he still wants to make progress.

Of course, the bank belongs to a vertical management unit. If President Cai wants to be promoted, he can only be promoted within the bank. However, with Su Xinghui's background and connections, President Cai's good relationship with him will always be good for his promotion.

President Cai said to Su Xinghui: "Okay, then don't worry. In January next year, I will let people help you handle the loan procedures at the fastest speed."

Su Xinghui said: "Then thank you, President Cai, please, this matter is very important to our Pengwan Town."

President Cai laughed and said: "Mayor Su is too polite, this is not a big deal. Supporting the development of agricultural economy in the townships below is the duty of our Agricultural Bank, this is what I should do. Let's go, Mayor Su, let's go to the canteen to eat, I have to accompany you to drink a few glasses."

Seeing that the kindness is hard to refuse, and President Cai just agreed to give them a loan, he naturally couldn't refuse, so he nodded: "Thank you, President Cai."

President Cai went downstairs with Su Xinghui to the canteen. The Agricultural Bank's canteen is not the kind of big canteen for employees to eat. The employees of the Agricultural Bank are basically locals of Shangjun and live locally. They all go back to eat after work, so their canteen is a small canteen, specially used to entertain guests.

Don't look at it as a canteen, but this canteen is not inferior to the restaurants outside. In terms of decoration, chefs, etc., it is quite high-end, especially the chef. The head chef is said to be a special-grade chef from Shangjun who retired from the Provincial Party Committee Reception Office. After retirement, he was dug to here by the Agricultural Bank with a high salary.

President Cai entered the canteen and said to the head chef: "Master Zhang, I have distinguished guests today, you personally fry a few signature dishes."

Master Zhang nodded and agreed.

President Cai took Su Xinghui into a private room, the waiter came in to brew tea, and President Cai said to the waiter: "Get us a bottle of 20-year-old Daqu."

The waiter nodded and went out.

Su Xinghui asked: "President Cai, do you also drink Daqu?"

President Cai nodded: "Yes, it is very popular to drink this wine in the county now, and I also like to drink this wine. By the way, Mayor Su, I heard that the packaging of this wine was designed by you personally, right?"

Su Xinghui said: "Yes, I designed it. The quality of Daqu is quite good, but the previous packaging was too rustic and didn't look high-end, so I redesigned several types of packaging."

President Cai gave a thumbs up and said: "Mayor Su, it's not that I flatter you, you are really talented." ===== CHAPTER 767 =====
