Chapter 1571 A tangled mess
"hiss……"
After more than ten seconds, Lin Jianzhou took a long, deep breath, as if he wanted to expel all the depression in his chest.
He suddenly put down the teacup, not even noticing a few drops of tea spilling out, and slammed his hands hard on the stone table, with a crisp "pa" sound!
"Okay! Good boy!"
Lin Jianzhou's voice trembled slightly with excitement, a strange flush rushed to his face, and his eyes flashed with ecstasy and disbelief.
"What a 'win-win-win'! What a 'pilot program for private contracting responsibility'! What the hell is wrong with your brain...what's wrong with your brain?! This idea...is too bold! Too far-fetched! But...but when you think about it carefully, it makes so damn much sense!"
This is different from when Li Xiangnan built the Imaging Building of Yenching University and later contracted out the Nianwei Hospital for private contracting!
This is a special personalized operation for factory hospitals, community hospitals and public hospitals!
It's called a pilot!
This is a reform based entirely on nationalization!
He stood up excitedly, paced back and forth under the small grape trellis, stopped suddenly, and pointed at Li Xiangnan, his fingers trembling slightly.
"The perfect remedy! Truly the perfect remedy! The deadlock that's been plaguing the department for months has been cleared up with just a few words from you! Xiangnan! You...you're truly a talent! No, a genius!"
Lin Jianzhou gave the highest praise without hesitation, and the look in his eyes was as if he had discovered a rare treasure.
Li Xiangnan felt a little embarrassed by the praise and scratched his head. The slight anxiety in his heart about the equity was diluted a lot by this huge affirmation.
Lin Jianzhou sat down again and picked up the teacup. His hands were still shaking and the tea was swaying.
He took several sips before he managed to calm down his excitement.
He looked at Li Xiangnan, his eyes full of admiration and the kindness of an elder looking at a younger person, but the sharpness of a person in a high position did not disappear.
He noticed that although Li Xiangnan was smiling, the lingering sadness between his brows and the hesitation to speak had not completely dissipated.
"Xiangnan," Lin Jianzhou put down the teacup, his tone softened, with a clear understanding of the world.
"Your idea has solved a huge problem that your Uncle Lin is in dire need of! Tell me, you came here so late at night, surely not just to offer me advice? Are you... running into some kind of difficulty? Talk to Uncle Lin. As long as it's not illegal, I'll definitely help you if I can!"
finally come!
Li Xiangnan's heart skipped a beat, and his nerves, which had just relaxed a little, tensed up again in an instant.
He subconsciously licked his dry lips, his Adam's apple rolled, his eyes averted. The "debt of love" that had been forcibly suppressed rose heavily again.
"Uncle Lin..." Li Xiangnan's voice was a little hoarse, and he spoke with difficulty, "Yes... there is something. About... about Chu Qiao and You Wei... and that piece of land, the three-party cooperation..."
He gritted his teeth and told the whole story about the "shocking" equity dispute that took place in Nianwei Hospital today.
From Lin Chuqiao's "only 1%" agreement, to Lin Youwei's bold announcement of "pay the money and get the shares for free", to Wang Defa spitting tea, Yuan Guoqing eating melons, and Jiang Qitao's amazement at seeing through everything... no matter how big or small, no one dared to hide anything.
“…Uncle Lin, this is what happened.”
After Li Xiangnan finished speaking, he felt a thin layer of sweat on his back. He lowered his head, not daring to look at Lin Jianzhou's expression, and his voice was as low as a mosquito's hum.
After all, it was his two daughters who suffered, not himself!
"I... I really didn't mean to let them suffer any loss, let alone take advantage! But the two of them... each one is more stubborn than the other, and each one is more... well, they are too fussy. These shares... they just refuse to take the normal share. I'm stuck in the middle, and this cooperation... really can't go any further..."
The more he spoke, the more helpless he became, and in the end, he could only smile bitterly.
The yard became quiet again.
Only the fragrance of jasmine floats silently in the night.
Li Xiangnan nervously awaited thunderous wrath, or at least a stern reprimand.
After all, it was because of me that these two precious girls were in such a mess...
However, the expected rebuke did not come.
After hearing this, Lin Jianzhou's expression was extremely strange.
He was stunned at first, his eyes widened slightly, as if he had heard something out of the ordinary.
Then, the astonishment turned into a dilemma, and the corners of his mouth pulled up uncontrollably, as if he was trying hard to hold back his laughter.
In the end, his expression settled into a complex mix of helplessness, understanding, and even a hint of... pride?
He picked up the cup of cold tea and took a sip slowly, then another sip.
Then he put down the teacup and tapped his fingers unconsciously on the rough stone table, making a rhythmic sound of "tap, tap, tap".
Those sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and their gaze swept back and forth over Li Xiangnan, as if they were re-evaluating a rare object.
"Ah……"
After a long time, Lin Jianzhou broke the silence with an ambiguous chuckle.
He leaned forward slightly, looking at the uneasy Li Xiangnan, with a cunning and knowing smile on his face, almost like that of an old fox.
"Xiangnan," Lin Jianzhou's voice was slow and full of knowing teasing. "It seems you're quite charming, kid! You were able to soften those two notoriously tough guys in our family into softies, making them scramble to give you money and shares... Tsk tsk, this skill is much more rare than that pilot contracting system idea you just gave me!"
Li Xiangnan's face suddenly turned red all the way to his ears. He was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to crawl into: "Uncle Lin! Please don't embarrass me! I... I really am..."
"Alright, alright!" Lin Jianzhou waved his hand, interrupting his embarrassment. The smile on his face deepened, and there was a hint of the mischief of an experienced person. "Young people are confused and have some little thoughts. It's normal! Your Uncle Lin was also young! Those two silly girls in our family, those thoughts... well, who can they hide from?"
He changed the subject and his tone became serious, with a father's majesty and kindness: "But, Xiangnan, you did the right thing. You didn't think of taking advantage of me, and you came to me knowingly. You are responsible. The way they did it..."
Lin Jianzhou shook his head, feeling both angry and amused. "Stupid! So stupid! One is so arrogant that he only cares about his own principles and thinks management is worthless; the other is so willful that he doesn't care about anything else and only knows how to pour out his heart. How can this be done in business? He's going to give all his wealth to you, kid!"
He paused, his fingers gently drawing circles on the stone table, his eyes gleaming with wisdom. "Their kindness is real money, more valuable than anything else. Just remember this kindness, but don't follow their foolish ways. Otherwise, the foundation of this cooperation will be distorted before it even begins! When we settle accounts in the future, the debts of favor will be mixed with the debts of money, and it will be a tangled mess, impossible to untangle!"
Li Xiangnan nodded repeatedly, the heavy stone in his heart finally loosening a little. "Uncle Lin, you're absolutely right! So... how do you think this matter should be resolved? How can we both... take their wishes into consideration and ensure that this cooperation continues smoothly?"
Lin Jianzhou smiled slightly, and that smile was full of confidence in his ability to strategize.
He picked up a clean teacup on the table, picked up the tin kettle, and poured some boiled water into it.
Then he stretched out his index finger, dipped it in the water in the cup, and began to draw on the cold stone table.
Li Xiangnan became suspicious and couldn't help but stretch his head to look over, his eyes slowly widening...
