Chapter 69 Lin Shaochao, a man of few words
Did they include Qiaoxin in their calculations?
Isn't that even more terrifying than plotting against me?!
Lin Shaochao's expression changed again, and his gaze toward Lin Yuanshan was immediately filled with vigilance.
"Hey, Chao-ge, don't misunderstand." Lin Yuanshan knew that this guy must have misunderstood.
He smiled and handed over a cigarette: "What I mean is, I do need to apply for another loan from Qiaoxin Bank."
However, it's not, as you just said, that the funds were approved with the motive of investing in me personally.
Instead, we'll present solid, convincing evidence as collateral, go through your bank's normal approval process, and secure the loan.
Upon hearing this, Lin Shaochao was finally able to relax a little.
He took the cigarette, his smile returning to his face: "Ah Yuan, you should have said so earlier."
In reality, whether it's because they're optimistic about Yuanshan Plastics or because they think highly of you as a person, it's essentially because the bank believes you have a bright future and hopes to forge a connection with a future Chaoshan tycoon.
You're a smart person. I might as well be frank with you about these things, so as not to beat around the bush and hurt our feelings.
"Haha, Brother Chao is straightforward. When everyone is honest with each other, there is less suspicion and less chance of conflict." Lin Yuanshan smiled and lit a cigarette, turning his gaze to Lin Qiang sitting to the side.
Lin Qiang was still envious of Lin Yuanshan, who didn't need to go through the same troubles as the three of them, asking others to intercede and crying and pleading, to get Lin Shaochao to offer to lend money.
Seeing Lin Yuanshan looking over, he nervously swallowed and tried to put on a fawning smile: "Mr. Lin, I am from Haiyang. Our ancestors drank from the Han River, so we are fellow Jiao people. Please speak frankly."
"Oh? You're also from Jiaoji?" Lin Yuanshan pretended not to know and looked Lin Qiang up and down.
Lin Qiang nodded vigorously: "It's true, we Chinese don't lie to each other."
"Well, since we're from the same boat, I'll show you a way." Lin Yuanshan tapped the table with his fingers: "Three hundred and twenty tons of goods—I have neither the money to buy them nor the place to store them..."
Seeing Lin Qiang stand up, Lin Yuanshan lightly patted the table: "See, you're in a hurry again? I haven't finished speaking!"
Lin Shaochao spoke up at the right moment, saying calmly, "Boss Lin, at this point, A Yuan won't fool you anymore."
Sit down and listen to him patiently; his time is worth more than the three of you combined.
Lin Qiang sat down awkwardly, staring longingly at Lin Yuanshan.
Lin Yuanshan picked up a cup of Kung Fu tea that Qiaoru had brewed and took a small sip: "I set up the stage, played the villain, and didn't even seek fame, so I must have made a profit."
Right now, you and your counterparts on Tongzhou Street have goods, but I don't have any money.
Therefore, we need to find a wealthy person to buy this batch of goods.
The other party paid the money, so naturally they want recognition. In Hong Kong's plastics industry right now, who is the most suitable person to take on this role?
Despite the difficulties, Lin Qiang was able to take the lead in establishing a waste recycling company. He was quick-witted, and a name immediately came to mind: "Li Yicheng of Yellow River Plastics!"
Lin Yuanshan smiled without saying a word, leaned back in his chair with his teacup in hand.
Seeing this, Lin Qiang knew that given Lin Yuanshan's character, the fact that he had brought this up was already out of consideration for Lin Shaochao.
If I keep pressing them, they probably won't say another word.
Lin Qiang got up from the coffee table, said a few polite words, and then hurriedly went downstairs alone. Before leaving, he didn't forget to settle today's bill.
At the same time, at the second-floor window, Tie Tou, who had watched Lin Qiang leave, strode back to Lin Yuanshan's side: "Young Master Yuan, he's gone. He hailed a taxi, not a rickshaw."
Lin Yuanshan nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand."
Lin Shaochao thought for a moment and suddenly realized: "Lin Qiang, a small merchant, would rather split every penny in half to spend."
If they're willing to call a taxi, they must be in a real hurry.
"Oh! Yuan, you judged whether he believed what you just said by which bus he took home!"
Upon hearing this, Qiaoru realized that as soon as Lin Qiang left, Lin Yuanshan immediately called Tietou to the window to spy on why the other party had left.
Even a skilled teahouse lady like Qiaoru, who was admiring Lin Yuanshan's meticulousness, was also afraid of his scheming nature. Her smile became somewhat unnatural.
Lin Shaochao, born into a prestigious family, naturally felt more confident than Qiaoru when facing Lin Yuanshan: "Hey, how old are you? At this rate, I reckon you'll have white hair soon."
Lin Yuanshan returned a helpless look: "Brother Chao, if I were like you, with my family owning a bank, would I need to worry about everything?"
Lin Shaochao pulled out a chair, shook his head and stood up: "No! If you were in my position, you would only use your existing power to scheme against people even more ruthlessly."
However, I am very fortunate that Uncle Chen gave you an over-limit loan when you first came to Qiaoxin. We are friends now, not enemies.
Now that you've come this far, I don't need to worry about you anymore.
If you need a loan to buy a factory or machinery, just call this personal number.
Lin Shaochao took out a gold-embossed business card, smiled, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Lin Yuanshan. It was the very card Chen Laoji had asked him to take away that day. (Foreshadowing in Chapter 41)
Lin Yuanshan put the bill away, then pulled out one of his own from his wallet and handed it over: "How did you know I'd soon need a loan to buy a factory and machinery?"
"Ha! Aru helped you get a job as a warehouse dispatcher at Li Yicheng's branch factory in Shek Kip Mei;
After that, you bought a factory on Tongzhou Street, recruited people, and spread the word that you would make secondary plastic flowers to sell to Southeast Asia;
Next, you stirred up a craze for collecting plastic waste, and today, as the story concludes, you urged Lin Qiang to go to Li Yicheng for help.
"If you say that you and Mr. Li didn't secretly reach some kind of agreement, I simply don't believe it!" Lin Shaochao tapped his temple with his index finger, looking intently at Lin Yuanshan: "Besides, you yourself said that you have no money, yet you want to profit from it;
Mr. Li was the head of the business. He was not short of money and was willing to spend money to purchase materials. He stabilized the situation and gained fame.
Then where does your profit come from?
It must be these 320 tons of material.
For Mr. Li, ten thousand yuan was just a drop in the ocean.
However, this batch of goods takes up a lot of space, even if he allows the branch factory in Shek Kip Mei to store it for you.
Given your character, Lin Yuanshan, you'll definitely choose to process this as quickly as possible to avoid affecting your reputation in that executive's eyes.
With so much material, how long would it take for your small factory with its few broken machines to last?
Then, recalling what you just said about using the proper procedures to apply for a loan from Qiaoxin again.
To put it simply, the 320 tons of waste materials and your agreement with Yellow River Plastics were used as collateral to secure a loan to buy the factory and machinery.
Haha, if I couldn't even guess these things, I would have squandered all of Qiaoxin's money long ago.
The hearty laughter disappeared as Lin Shaochao went downstairs.
Lin Yuanshan got up and walked to the window. Just before Lin Shaochao got into the car, he looked up as if by some strange impulse.
Lin Shaochao suddenly felt playful, put aside his young master's airs, and shouted at Lin Yuanshan in front of everyone: "What are you looking at? Are you looking at what kind of car I'm riding in?"
"Damn it, I'm the young master of Qiaoxin Bank, of course I ride in my own car!"
