Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?

Chapter 1477: Chapter 558: We Toads Just Love Eating Swan Meat!

At this moment, both Ye Jinyan and Guan Le secretly gave a hundred thumbs up in their hearts for Zhang Jingdong’s negotiation skills.

Finally, Zhang Jingdong breathed a full sigh of relief and said with a sense of commitment, ”Alright, let’s work together sincerely to create a great tech company!”

The two chatted a bit more, and just then the manager came over with the waitstaff and gradually served all the dishes.

Afterwards, they started eating and chatting.

Huang Xiuzhang couldn’t help but ask curiously, ”Boss Zhang, there’s a question I don’t know if I should ask, but I’m really curious.”

Zhang Jingdong took a sip of red wine, ”You want to ask how old I am this year?”

Huang Xiuzhang sighed, ”You’re just too smart, but it’s fine if you don’t want to answer. I’m purely curious, with absolutely no other intentions.”

Zhang Jingdong laughed carefreely, ”No worries, anyway, talent has nothing to do with age... I’m 19 this year, still a freshman at Xijiang University.”

Although Huang Xiuzhang thought Zhang Jingdong would be much younger than himself, he couldn’t have imagined that he wasn’t even 20, still just a freshman!

Zhang Jingdong chuckled, ”What, you don’t believe it? Should I take out my student ID to show you?”

”No need, no need...” Huang Xiuzhang waved his hands quickly, ”I believe you, I believe you... You’re truly a young hero. When I was your age, I was still working as a dockworker.”

Zhang Jingdong immediately reciprocated, ”So this also proves a saying, that heroes come from anywhere.”

”Come, let’s drink to these two sayings!”

”Alright!”

The two clinked their glasses and then each drank it all in one go.

After putting down his cup, Zhang Jingdong said, ”Now, I’ll talk about my initial plan. In the initial stages, I will invest two hundred million, focusing on two points: completing the factory construction and recruiting talent for technical research.”

”I’ll give you 20% shares, and I’ll hold 80%. However, there will definitely be various fundraising efforts in the future, and all those shares will come from me. How does that sound, any issues?”

Huang Xiuzhang hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly, ”...Okay.”

Seeing his agreement, Zhang Jingdong continued, ”During the construction and operation process, I’ll have Mr. Ye or someone he assigns at the factory.”

”You should know Mr. Ye’s background, so if you need any talent or resources, feel free to ask Mr. Ye.”

To be honest, when Zhang Jingdong mentioned the 20% shares for Huang Xiuzhang, he was slightly hesitant. Although he wasn’t spending any money, he knew the effort required during the initial setup would be unimaginable.

But after hearing this sentence, he instantly adjusted his mindset.

Because with Ye Jinyan’s help, he could at least save 50% of his effort.

Moreover, Ye Jinyan’s participation greatly increased his confidence in the project’s success.

So he readily nodded, ”Alright, I fully agree.”

In the following two-plus hours, they discussed some specific details and finally agreed to draft a cooperation agreement tomorrow morning.

Around 10 PM, they went downstairs together and left the restaurant.

After seeing off Huang Xiuzhang, Zhang Jingdong and the others got in the car and headed straight for the hotel.

Ye Jinyan suddenly laughed and said to Zhang Jingdong, ”You’re really annoying!”

Zhang Jingdong was initially a bit puzzled, then joked, ”I just sealed such an important deal, and instead of complimenting me, you say I’m annoying?”

”You’re just annoying! Before I met you, I thought I was quite outstanding, but now... standing in front of you, I feel like I know nothing at all.”

Zhang Jingdong immediately laughed, ”Mr. Ye, that’s not right at all. Actually, everyone’s comparing overall capabilities. You might think I’m stronger in business, but you’re much stronger than me in other areas!”

”For example, every time I see you and Ms. Guan, I can’t help but wish I could disappear into a crack in the ground. Every time I go out with you two, I hope to master the invisibility technique, so others won’t say how these two beauties are hanging around with an average-looking guy like me!”

”Where are you ugly?”

”Compared to other men, I’m not ugly, but you two are just too beautiful. My looks just don’t match up to you.”

”Besides, I especially admire you and Ms. Guan’s good manners, like when eating. Before every meal, I tell myself a thousand times to chew slowly and have manners.”

”But every time at the table, the moment I pick up the chopsticks, I start eating fast out of habit. Only then do I remember I failed again, but I can’t help it, I’ve already given myself away, so I just go all out.”

”Meanwhile, you and Ms. Guan are always so elegant and well-mannered at the dinner table, without any deception. Every meal, I feel like I’ve just got a toad eating swan’s meat being with you two.”

”But I have to say, this swan meat is indeed delicious, and once we’re back at the hotel, I have to continue enjoying!”

Ye Jinyan and Guan Le were immediately amused.

Ye Jinyan said, ”...Alright, husband, you’re getting better at talking!”

Zhang Jingdong held her slender hand, ”I have to! Though I lack dining manners, I’m very knowledgeable about the course ’The Rights and Duties of a Husband.’

”Haha, there’s even such a course?”
