Urban God-level Youth

Li Jianjun said these things, and Qin Hao could probably guess what he was thinking.

He said with a smile, "Mr. Li wants to invest in Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company?"

Li Jianjun, "Exactly. According to a ten-billion valuation, I will pay every penny, I'll invest two billion for twenty percent of the shares.

Moreover, I will also help Brother Qin's company through its difficult times."

The price he offered was pretty fair, and he didn't mean to take advantage of the situation.

Li Jianjun had never seen a company that could provoke an entire industry to resist.

From a side, it also reflected the endless potential of Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company.

According to his estimates, the future market value of Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company could perhaps exceed fifty billion.

If he held twenty percent of the shares, once the market value hit fifty billion, his shares would be worth ten billion!

That's a several dozen times increase! Find your next adventure on My Virtual Library Empire

If it weren't for the Tang Group's difficulties, he wouldn't have had this great opportunity.

Moreover, Li Jianjun was seventy to eighty percent confident that he could persuade Qin Hao because if Qin Hao did not cooperate with him, Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company would find it very difficult to gain a foothold in Jianghai.

If Qin Hao let Jiangshan Base provide the raw ducks, the transportation cost would increase, reducing the profits.

The most important thing was that it wouldn't solve the problem at its root and would severely hinder Jiangshan Roasted Duck's development in Jianghai.

Expanding the business was almost impossible.

Only cooperation with him was the best way out for Jiangshan Roasted Duck at present.

This was Li Jianjun's confidence; he believed that if Qin Hao were smart, he would agree.

From his words, Qin Hao could tell that he had a way to resolve the crisis of Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company.

Qin Hao shook his head and said, "Sorry, Mr. Li, I have no plans to raise funds."

Li Jianjun was puzzled, "Brother Qin, this is a mutually beneficial opportunity, why are you so obstinate?

Without my cooperation, Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company will hardly be able to move an inch in Jianghai.

You've already carved out a path in Jianghai. If you quit now, it will be difficult to reenter later on.

And even expanding into other provinces will be difficult, ultimately relegating you to a corner."

Qin Hao, "Sorry, Mr. Li, if it really comes to that, I'll seek a partnership with you."

Having said that, Qin Hao drove off.

Li Jianjun was somewhat speechless; did he really think that Jiangshan Roasted Duck Company could still hold out?

...

Not long after Qin Hao left Haomen KTV in his car, he received a call from Feng Xiangyi.

Her tone wasn't very good, "Mr. Qin, people from the market procurement department said they can't buy ducks anymore."

Qin Hao, "I'm aware. Is there any other news?"

Feng Xiangyi, "There's another thing. Four Delicious Duck Neck shops opened next to our four stores.

They're having an opening promotion which is greatly affecting the performance of our stores."

After all, the appeal of Delicious Duck Neck was huge, a well-known snack across the country.

Though a bit expensive, its unique taste was adored by many, especially now that they were holding an opening sale.

Qin Hao, "I'm heading to the company now. Where are you?"

Feng Xiangyi replied, "I came to the company as soon as I heard the news, and Wan Rou is also here."

"I'll be there soon."

On the way to the company, he received a call from 'Fatty'.

Right after answering, he heard Fatty's excited voice, "Big Brother, it's a success."

"What's succeeded?" asked Qin Hao, puzzled.

Fatty, "Didn't you tell me to sign Xia Qing? It's already done, we signed the contract today."

Qin Hao: "You've handled this matter well, but remember not to expose yourself; she must have seen you before, so don't reveal yourself for now."

Fatty: "I know, Brother Hao, don't worry about it. I won't tell anyone about this, hehe."

Hearing Fatty's ill-intentioned chuckle, Qin Hao hung up the phone, finding this fellow's thoughts too sleazy.

Arriving at the company, most of the employees had not yet come to work, but several high-level executives were already there.

Feng Xiangyi, Nie Si, the manager and assistant managers of the marketing department, the finance manager, the procurement manager, and so on, had all arrived.

Qin Hao sat in the main seat of the conference room, with Feng Xiangyi and Du Wanrou sitting next to him.

Seeing Du Wanrou, those present felt curious about who she was, but since Qin Hao did not introduce her, they did not ask.

Qin Hao: "Let's hear the situation."

The procurement manager, Zhao Peng, began to speak: "Today, the staff of the procurement department went to purchase live ducks, and the supplier said they were all reserved. We visited several large duck farms, and they all said they had none."

Qin Hao asked the logistics department: "How many days can we hold out with our current stock?"

The logistics manager replied: "Three days. According to our current sales, we can last at most three days."

Qin Hao asked: "Does anyone have any good solutions?"

The assistant marketing manager, Li Jing, said: "Mr. Qin, I believe we should quickly look for multiple procurement channels.

If our stores close due to a shortage, we will lose customers very quickly.

It might even cause our loyal customers to lose faith in our stores."

The others nodded slightly, feeling that Li Jing's comment was valid.

The company's biggest problem now was the lack of channels to procure live ducks.

Qin Hao: "Manager Li is right. The procurement department should continue to look for new procurement channels. Mr. Zhao, you should go now. It's urgent."

"Okay, Mr. Qin." Zhao Peng left the conference room.

Qin Hao continued to address the others: "Regarding Delicious Duck Neck, does anyone have any suggestions?"

Li Jing: "Mr. Qin, Delicious Roasted Duck has significant influence, and I think we must respond.

Otherwise, it could seriously impact our performance."

The marketing manager, Song Zhu, said: "Mr. Qin, I believe we need not worry about Delicious Duck Neck right now. They sell duck necks, which do not conflict much with our roasted duck. The impact won't be that great.

Our main issue to solve right now is the procurement channel."

Assistant Manager Li Jing disagreed with her, and the two argued for a while.

Qin Hao could see that the two did not get along well. He remained silent and gave Feng Xiangyi a look.

Feng Xiangyi spoke up: "Alright, let's discuss Delicious Duck Neck another time. Let's end today's meeting here."

One by one, everyone left, leaving only Qin Hao, Feng Xiangyi, and Du Wanrou in the conference room.

Qin Hao took out his phone and called Kang Youyi: "Mr. Kang, I need fifty thousand ducks delivered to Jianghai City today."

Kang Youyi was taken aback: "Brother Hao, can't you get any over there?"

Qin Hao replied: "The market for live ducks has been blockaded by our rivals. We can't buy any."

"Alright, I'll arrange for transportation right away," Kang Youyi responded hastily.

Qin Hao: "How large is the duck farm now?"

Kang Youyi replied: "We have about two hundred thousand ducks, with tens of thousands hatching every day."

Qin Hao: "Acquire all the duck farms in Jiangshan for me. I want to build a large-scale duck farming base in Jiangshan.

Also, regarding Yangyue City, I've already sent people to scout the area. We need to build a large-scale duck farming base there as well."

Kang Youyi: "Okay, Brother Hao. The head office has enough cash on hand to develop the duck farming bases."

After hanging up, Qin Hao considered calling Li Moying but decided against it.

Soon his phone rang; it was Xu Jiekang calling.

"Mr. Xu," Qin Hao answered the phone with a smile.

Xu Jiekang: "Xiao Hao, tomorrow morning Chang Anding and the deputy head of the Southern Military Industry Group will come to Jianghai. Find a place and gather the shareholders; we need to discuss the new company's business."
