1139: 788 Cooperation is the key to winning the future (Is there anything else?) 1139: 788 Cooperation is the key to winning the future (Is there anything else?) The mundane world is vast, and the stars shine in abundance.
The mischievous boy who once watched cartoons in the laid-off workers’ compound could never have anticipated that he would one day travel so far.
“What are you thinking about?”
After dinner, the young man and woman took a walk around the farm in the gentle quiet of the night.
Jiang Chen looked into the distance at the faintly visible waterfall and said softly, “In a few years, I wonder if this place will still be around.”
Cao Jinse smiled, “Urban modernization won’t progress endlessly.
Now, what’s emphasized is that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets.
So don’t worry, even if we are gone, this place will still be here.”
This golden branch and jade leaf are becoming more down-to-earth.
“Why did you agree so readily?”
Turning her head, Cao Jinse asked, “Why didn’t you seriously consider it before deciding?”
“Such a rare opportunity is coveted by many.”
That’s the logic.
But not everyone has such awareness.
After all, such a huge investnt is not sothing everyone has the courage or capital for.
Otherwise, the emphasis on “responsibility” and “sentint” would not have been highlighted earlier.
“Thank you.”
Jiang Chen said.
“What are you thanking for?”
Cao Jinse asked with a aningful smile.
“Thank you for giving this opportunity.”
Jiang Chen sincerely said that if not for Cao Jinse’s concession, an opportunity to leap to success like this would never have co his way.
“Don’t.
I can’t take credit for this success.
If you should thank anyone, it should be Aunt Lan; after all, she’s the one who organized today’s gathering.”
Lan Peizhi and that person were still on the farm, probably discussing business.
If one wants to stand out, they inevitably need the support of a patron, and Lan Peizhi was undoubtedly his.
Of course.
The graceful lady beside him obviously was one as well.
“Let’s partner up.”
Jiang Chen suddenly spoke up.
Cao Jinse looked puzzled, “What?”
“I probably don’t have enough capability to handle this business alone.”
It wasn’t just politeness.
It was Jiang Chen’s first ti dealing with such a “business,” and he knew his own “qualifications” were still too thin.
“But, I don’t have any money.”
Cao Jinse shrugged with a frivolity that didn’t match her status.
“Don’t look at like that, I’m not pretending to be poor, otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked you to invest in Firefly.
Plus, do you really think I wouldn’t want to take this business?”
Indeed.
Jiuding Group may be large and wealthy, but precisely because they’re spread too thin across many fields, it’s like a person whose energy is ultimately limited.
Of course.
Jiang Chen was also aware that Cao Jinse’s words were half-true and half-false.
With Jiuding Group’s magnitude, they would definitely be able to take on the business if they really wanted to.
The main reason Cao Jinse passed the opportunity to him was to help him.
Jiuding Group and the state were already friends.
But he wasn’t.
Jiang Chen was always soone who distinguished between gratitude and grievance, so he said, “That’s why, we should partner up.”
Facing Cao Jinse’s eyes, he explained naturally, “I only have this opportunity because of your and Miss Lan’s faces.
Since it’s about paving the way, I should take responsibility.”
Cao Jinse was about to speak but stopped, caught between laughter and tears.
“So, I’m wrong now?”
“It doesn’t require your money, just lend your na to it so that all parties can be assured.”
Cao Jinse looked surprised and skeptical, “You really don’t need my money?”
“Anyway, there’s no way to make money from it.”
Jiang Chen said nonchalantly.
Indeed.
There is no possibility of financial return.
But with Cao Jinse’s involvent, it’s a vastly different concept for him.
Now, Cao Jinse is his target for alliance.
With Cao Jinse’s na, he can make use of the nearly one trillion lick-dog gold still lying on the books.
I don’t need to spend a penny of my own money.
With Gold Mountain as my solid backing, no matter how huge the deal is, I have full confidence.
I can rightfully and joyously “swipe for cash”.
Cao Jinse can harvest a huge amount of goodwill without any cost.
The country is naturally at an even greater advantage.
“You really are a natural at doing business, you really know how to make that abacus sing.”
Cao Jinse seed to be sarcastic, but in actuality, she was sowhat moved deep down.
Of course, she didn’t know she had beco a “human-shaped check”.
“Alright, I owe you one.”
Even though he was almost certain she wouldn’t refuse, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but show a slight smile when Cao Jinse agreed, “Friends should help each other out, right?”
Cao Jinse shook her head and smiled.
Indeed, she had helped this guy out a lot, but he had also given her quite a bit in return.
Who owed whom more, it was really hard to settle on the spot.
But it seed there was no need to calculate it.
Just like he said, why keep such a strict tally between friends?
“Do you really not know Uncle Sui?”
No one around, she asked earnestly.
Jiang Chen shook his head, his face calm, and said, “What’s his national server rank?”
Cao Jinse couldn’t help but let out a laugh, then seemingly couldn’t restrain herself and patted his shoulder.
This must be the first “close contact” between the two after knowing each other for so long.
Of course.
The formulaic handshakes before don’t count.
“You’re courting death!”
“No one heard it anyway.”
“That still doesn’t an you can just spout nonsense.”
Cao Jinse gave him a glance.
This lady of noble birth had always been approachable, but within that approachability was a chasm of distance, and her personal cultivation couldn’t change the feeling of being worlds apart.
But the her now was like a completely different person compared to before.
“Can it be found on the internet?”
Jiang Chen teased once more.
Walking down the path, Cao Jinse felt the urge to kick this guy into the ditch by the road.
Still, she is soone with exceptional self-restraint.
“You can try.”
Jiang Chen took out his phone right away, and under Cao Jinse’s astonished gaze, he went online and searched.
As expected.
“Person not found.”
Even the mighty internet is not all-powerful.
But this also implied.
He probably isn’t in the top ten of the national server.
Otherwise, there would definitely be a record.
Makes sense.
This at least aligns sowhat with reality.
Jiang Chen found it a tad easier to accept in his mind.
If he bumped into a top-ranked figure just by going out for a al, that would be too absurd.
Of course.
Not being in the top ten of the national server, it’s inevitable he has a place on the ranking.
As for the exact spot, why bother knowing so clearly, it didn’t make much of a difference for him.
“You really are a…”
Watching him seriously check with his phone, Cao Jinse couldn’t help but almost break her image, then with a resigned bitter smile, she explained, “Alright, you couldn’t find it, let tell you, if Uncle Sui moves up half a rank in the next two years, then to et him, it would be…”
“Stop.
Don’t say anymore.”
Jiang Chen interrupted, with a forbidding look as if knowing too much would hasten one’s death.
Cao Jinse couldn’t hold back and lightly kicked his leg.
“Go to hell!”
