Chapter 269 Coaxing
Chapter 269 Coaxing
When Tao Changming came to discuss this matter, Xu Mingyuan understood that he and his team should have already started to deal with it.
This is the case with Nanxi, a small fourth-tier city. The pie is so small, and since it cannot be expanded, it will strive to grab the biggest piece.
Xu Mingyuan was no longer surprised by this kind of thing.
Even though Xu Mingyuan was so familiar with Nanxi and was allocated a large piece of industrial land, he did not choose to develop his main business in Nanxi.
There are too many troubles in small places, and Xu Mingyuan is too lazy to pay attention to these bullshit.
After Tao Changming answered a phone call and left, Tao Shuxin began to non-stop ask Xu Mingyuan what they had talked about just now and didn't let her listen.
"Tell me something, why don't you say it? What's there to hide?"
Tao Shuxin kept babbling as if she was wound up and couldn't stop.
"It's nothing, actually. Your father wants to control Nanhua Chemical."
Xu Mingyuan was overwhelmed by the question and had to tell her.
"Isn't my dad the general manager?" Tao Shuxin asked puzzledly.
"He wants to go one step further and become a major shareholder."
"Huh? Isn't my dad a major shareholder?"
Tao Shuxin was stunned and asked in surprise.
"So, you won't understand even if I tell you." Xu Mingyuan said helplessly.
"Why don't I understand? If you explain it to me, I will understand it."
Tao Shuxin hummed to express her dissatisfaction.
Xu Mingyuan saw that he was just being naughty and acting like an eight or nine-year-old kid, so he could only say with a smile: "Don't you have to pay to buy shares? Where does your dad get so much money? You have to find another way to get shares."
"Does it require a lot of money? What method should be used?"
Tao Shuxin's big eyes were full of confusion.
"Well, it's definitely not something that can be exposed." Xu Mingyuan replied.
"Ah? No way, would my father break the law?" Tao Shuxin asked quickly.
"Not really, don't worry. If this is illegal, at least half of the entrepreneurs in our country will be imprisoned. Well, how can I explain this? Your father is a very capable person, but he values profit too much." Xu Mingyuan said.
"You bastard, who is my dad to you? How dare you say bad things about my dad behind his back!" Tao Shuxin said angrily.
"How can that be considered bad talk? I'm just judging?"
"Humph! Isn't that a bad thing?"
Tao Shuxin's mouth was almost curled up to the sky. Although Xu Mingyuan and her father were very familiar with each other and were used to being disrespectful to each other, as a daughter, she must protect him, just like she protected Xu Mingyuan at home.
"Can that be considered a bad comment? It's neither praise nor criticism, just a neutral evaluation. Besides, I also care about the benefits, and I also said that your father is a very capable person. There are some things he can do that I can't do even if I scratch my head."
Xu Mingyuan tried to make amends, "The little girl is just petty. So what if she said something bad behind her back? Don't you often complain about others?"
"Come on, I don't believe it."
Tao Shuxin snorted and stopped asking about it.
Xu Mingyuan didn't go to meet the project leader, but took the girl for a walk around the periphery.
The initial construction of a lithium battery factory is not difficult. The first batch of factory buildings can be completed in about two or three months. Then it will take about four or five months to move equipment and train employees before it can go into production.
There are many benefits to doing business, and policies and influence will be favorable. The only disadvantage is that it is too difficult to do business, and it is not as easy as a classmate network.
……
By evening.
Xu Mingyuan and Tao Shuxin went to her house together.
He Qiong was home alone, preparing food. When she saw Xu Mingyuan come in, she nodded and greeted him.
"Taotao, go wash the fruit plate for Xu Mingyuan."
"Thank you, Mr. He." Xu Mingyuan responded with a smile. Seeing that Tao Shuxin didn't like to move, he secretly patted her butt and said, "Hurry up, the guests are coming."
"hiss!"
Tao Shuxin was shocked. She didn't expect that this bastard would dare to touch her as soon as her mother turned around.
Seeing her glaring at him fiercely, Xu Mingyuan said with a smile: "Go, wash some strawberries for me to eat, remember to wash them cleanly."
"go away."
Although she said this, Tao Shuxin still washed a plate of fruit and went to help her mother with work. Tao Changming did not come back for dinner, and He Qiong did not call him. This middle-aged couple had long been accustomed to this kind of life. It was good enough for him to come back for three meals a week.
Tao Shuxin did make a phone call, but when she heard that the other end was busy, she had to hang up.
"Xu Mingyuan, try the braised spareribs."
He Qiong picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it in his bowl.
"Hey, please help Teacher He."
Xu Mingyuan nodded and thanked him. He still respected He Qiong very much.
"Mom must have marinated the ribs at noon. They are very tasty, right, Mom?"
Tao Shuxin took a bite of rice and a bite of meat, and her little face was bulging with food.
"Ah."
He Qiong smiled and picked up a piece of food for her with chopsticks.
After dinner, He Qiong went to pack a bag of fruits, dried fruits and other snacks, and Tao Shuxin also pretended to pack a few clothes and prepared to take them to school.
"Xu Mingyuan, Tao Shuxin is still young and immature. Please be more understanding if anything happens to her." He Qiong said.
"Teacher He, you're too polite. How could Tao Shuxin be so ignorant?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Yes, Mom, Xu Mingyuan is so annoying. I have always been considerate of him."
Tao Shuxin finished her meal, packed up her things, and lay down on the sofa, lazily chewing an apple, filling the empty space in her stomach while interrupting others.
He Qiong couldn't help but sigh, and continued to say to Xu Mingyuan: "She is still young, not as smart as you..."
"Mom, you really think highly of him. He had to ask the teacher for passing grades in his main subjects last semester and almost failed the course, while I was still in the top ten in the class."
When Tao Shuxin heard that she was not as smart as him, she became unhappy and kept complaining.
He Qiong has a pretty good temper, but having a daughter like this is a bit unbearable.
Xu Mingyuan clearly saw her chest rise and fall several times, as if she was suppressing her anger.
"Why are you looking at me? Isn't what I said true?"
When Tao Shuxin saw him glaring at her, she immediately glared back.
Xu Mingyuan sighed, this silly child is hopeless, if he hadn't been there, this silly girl would have been beaten at least twice.
Seeing this, He Qiong was no longer in the mood to talk about these things. Just like an ordinary parent, she told the two children to study hard, not to cause trouble at school, and to be careful on the road.
Xu Mingyuan nodded in agreement one by one, but Tao Shuxin had been hearing this since he was a child and was getting a little impatient.
When a child leaves his parents, it means that the child is almost grown up in the eyes of the parents.
Tao Shuxin didn't think there was anything wrong, but Xu Mingyuan could see that, unlike when he first met He Qiong two years ago, she no longer had the aggressive look she had back then and was now like an ordinary housewife, concerned about her daughter's future.
Unfortunately, this unfortunate child has no tact and causes trouble for her mother all day long.
He Qiong knew that she had to save face for her daughter in front of Xu Mingyuan, so she said nothing more. She just sent the two of them downstairs and watched them leave.
Tao Shuxin's belly was full, and it was almost dark, so she didn't feel like driving anymore. As soon as she got in the car, she opened her sweatshirt without any image and stroked her fair belly.
"Oh, just now when I was helping my mother clean up the kitchen, I saw that she had white hair." Tao Shuxin said with a sigh.
"Haha, it's because I'm mad at you, this unlucky kid." Xu Mingyuan said.
"You're talking nonsense. Why did I get angry with my mother?"
"Teacher He was talking about something, and you were interrupting her. How could she not be angry?"
"I just want to show off myself. Mom says I'm stupid, but how can I be stupid?"
"You're hopeless. Do you think if you shut up, Teacher He will think you've grown up? Otherwise, Teacher He will definitely be worried when she sees me coaxing a little girl like you all day long?" Xu Mingyuan said helplessly.
"Well, you lied to me! What did you lie to me about?"
Tao Shuxin immediately sat up straight and questioned him.
Xu Mingyuan was choked. Although some of the things were meant to deceive her, they had nothing to do with what they were discussing now, right?
Xu Mingyuan sometimes feels a headache about this little girl with a unique way of thinking. She feels like she is trying to trick a fool.
