BXBX NOVEL Chapter 208 Drink
Ding Ning did not notice that Ling Yun did not rush to go home, but stood in the aisle and watched Ding Ning drive away. After that, she patted her chest with lingering fear, naughtily stuck out her tongue, and said to herself complacently.
"That was close! Fortunately, I’m alert enough, otherwise he’ll have got into my anus. I should keep my freshness. In such a long life, I can’t allow him to do that so soon. If he gets tired of me, I will be too sorrowful for tears. Humph! Ling Yun, you really are the smartest woman in the world. I’m so proud of you, gaga!"
With peach blossoms in her eyes, she caressed the property ownership certificate, carefully put it into the bag with the bank card, and then went home.
After finishing a sumptuous dinner, Chu Yunna made tea for Ding Ning and Ling Fei and consciously went to wash the bowls and pots. Ling Fei took the opportunity to report to him about the company’s establishment.
He had rented two floors of the building as the office and a floor of basement as the warehouse. The office was under renovation, and the license was also going through the process and could be issued within the next few days. Everything went orderly according to the plan.
Since pharmaceutical company and medical device company both belonged to special industries and required the approval of the Food and Drug Administration, the company’s current priority was to offer the major drugs or medical devices for examination and approval and record.
So far, Ling Fei didn’t know what the company was going to sell. He had been busy with the company’s affairs due to his trust in Ding Ning.
Ding Ning scratched his head in embarrassment, pondering over taking time to contact Xia Ziyu in these two days and asking him about the progress of strength instrument production.
"Ring!"
Talk of the devil and he came. Seeing the caller ID, Ding Ning became delighted and pressed the answer button, "Hello, Brother Xia, why do you call me so late?"
"Is it late? Nightlife has just begun, hahaha!"
Xia Ziyu straightforward teased him. "I’m calling to tell you that we’ve finished producing the instrument in strict accordance with the standards you set. Do you want to pick up the goods or want me to deliver them to you?"
Ding Ning hesitated and replied, "Hold on, wait a moment."
He covered the microphone and asked Ling Fei, "Uncle Ling, is the warehouse rented by our company available now?"
"Yes, the warehouse doesn’t need much renovation. The floors have been paved. We just simply painted the walls."
On hearing that the goods were coming, Ling Fei suddenly became refreshed and answered quickly.
"That’s good. Tell me the warehouse address of our company."
Ding Ning wrote down the address and said over the phone, "Brother Xia, I will send you the address. Could you please ask someone to deliver them tomorrow morning?"
After he just hung up the phone and sent the address, Xia Ziyu called again, "Brother Ding, your warehouse is located in Jinling Road. There is traffic restriction during the day, and the trucks are forbidden to get in. We can only deliver the goods after 12 o’clock at night. I’m wondering if you have time tonight. I can arrange someone to deliver the goods to you now."
Ding Ning slightly hesitated. He had not been to the company, and could recognize the way by going there personally, "Well, I will go there now."
"Uncle Ling, we should go there now. There is traffic restriction during the day, so they can only deliver the goods at night."
"No problem. The equity agreement is in the office, and you can sign it by the way."
Ling Fei nodded to agree without hesitation. After telling Chu Yunna, they drove to the company.
Jinling Road was a world-famous commercial district as well as the most prosperous commercial street in the Asia-Pacific region. It was known as place where numerous businessmen gathered and which led the business trend of the whole country and even the Far East. The four major department stores had won countless first place in the Asian department store industry. As the most luxurious fashion commercial district with the highest rent of shops in China, it mainly operated luxury goods and high-end personality consumption.
Jinding Mansion was a high-end office building located in Jinling Road, with a total of 36 floors, good property management and security configuration.
The office Ling Fei rented was located on the 35th and 36th floor of Jinding Mansion. The office area of each floor was about 5,000 square meters, and the rent for each floor was 5 million yuan per year.
Ling Fei said that he had already reached an agreement with the property management company when renting the office. They could build something like staff activities room and staff canteen, which could offer catering for staff, on the top floor.
On hearing this proposal, Ding Ning had a sudden inspiration. He had been worried about how to arrange Chu Yunna’s life. He couldn’t let her be a maid and stay at home every day.
She had been disconnected from the society for too long. Ding Ning still hoped that she could integrate into the society and live a normal life soon.
Chu Yunna, who had been practicing cooking, could run a fast-food restaurant where she could also sell some beverages. Merely offering the daily takeouts to the employees working in Jinding Building was enough to guarantee the profit of the restaurant.
Ling Fei reached the agreement with the property management company after careful consideration. He happened to hold the view coinciding with Ding Ning’s.
Ding Ning immediately negotiated with the contractor who was working on the renovation overnight, asking them to come up with a plan to build a restaurant as soon as possible and then build and decorate it according to the best standards. Money was not a problem.
Although the construction of the restaurant was supposed to be done by builders, the construction of the restaurant on the roof did not require the civil engineering such as laying the foundation. It was a small project like building a cottage. The decoration company was fully capable of doing that.
The contractor didn’t expect to receive a big deal so late. He instantly beamed with joy and repeatedly promised that he would ask the designer to come up with the best design proposal as soon as possible.
In a renovated office, Ling Fei took out a shareholding contract and asked sign Ding Ning to sign it.
After looking through it, Ding Ning frowned slightly, "Uncle Ling, this is not right. I account for 70% of the shares, while you and Nana each account for 15%. It’s not a proper allocation."
"I don’t think so. I’ve just run some errands, while you are the investor. I think 70% of the shares for you may be not enough."
Ling Fei waved his hand in disapproval, which made Ding Ning deeply sigh that he and Chu Yunxiu had completely different characters.
One was not greedy for private interests, while the other one was obsessed with money. He wondered how they became a couple at that time.
"Well, I will transfer 15% of my shares to Ling Yun. 55% of the shares is enough for me."
Ding Ning said resolutely.
Ling Fei moved his lips and wanted to persuade him, but did not say anything finally. After all, the company belonged to Ding Ning. He was willing to give Ling Yun his shares. Although Ling Fei did not agree on it, he was still very happy, because it meant that Ding Ning really treated his daughter very well.
After handling the equity allocation, Ding Ning and Ling Fei discussed it and decided to name the companies Shengtang International Pharmaceutical Company and Shengtang International Medical Instrument Company according to the original plan.
Xia Ziyu happened to call, and Ding Ning and Ling Fei hurriedly went downstairs to lead the way.
"Brother Xia, thanks for personally delivering the goods this late."
Watching Xia Ziyu, who was in overalls and unloading the goods, Ding Ning said with sincerity.
As a decent boss worth several billion yuan, Xia Ziyu could swallow his pride to unload the goods with ordinary workers, which made him secretly sigh that the success of Xia Ziyu, who rose by his own efforts, was not a fluke.
"Ah, it’s no big deal. I used to be a porter at a dock when I was young, and I could carry two sacks weighing more than one hundred jins at a time."
Xia Ziyu said forthrightly with a smile, while looking at Ling Fei unintentionally.
Ding Ning understood and hurriedly introduced, "This is an uncle of mine, named Jia Mingzhi. The company’s affairs will all be managed by Uncle Jia later."
"President Jia, nice to meet you. My name is Xia Ziyu. It seems that we are about the same age. I’m wondering which of us is older."
Xia Ziyu was rather sociable. He smiled sincerely and shook hands with Ling Fei.
Ding Ning secretly found it funny. When hearing that Ling Fei was named Jia Mingzhi, Xia Ziyu was obviously stunned. He was too speechless to complain about the name made up by the "virgin".
"President Xia, I’ve heard so much about you from Ding Ning, but didn’t have the opportunity to meet you. Today I finally meet you. I am 48 years old this year. What about President Xia?"
Ling Fei had worked as an agent and disguised as various people when performing the tasks. He was portraying himself when disguising as a businessman. His sincere and hearty smile left a good impression on others.
"I am also 48 years old this year. It’s such a coincidence. I was born in September, what about president Jia?"
"Ah, I was also born in September. It’s quite a coincidence. My birthday is on September 7th, what about President Xia?"
"My birthday is on September 13th. Hey, it seems that I should call you brother Jia."
With enough life experience and similar age, they felt like old friends as soon as they talked with each other. They soon left Ding Ning alone and talked happily with each other.
Seeing the workers unloading the goods, Ding Ning helplessly shook his head with a bitter smile. He found it embarrassing to stand idle, so he directly took off Xia Ziyu’s overalls, put the overalls on himself and helped the workers unload the goods.
These two old men seemed to be close enough to be good friends. Xia Ziyu and Ling Fei were talking enthusiastically, so Xia Ziyu obediently let Ding Ning take off his overalls, which made Ding Ning secretly doubt that he actually pretended to be talking enthusiastically with Ling Fei because of his unwillingness to work.
Half of the fifth floor of the basement of Jinding Building was the warehouses rented by Ding Ning’s company. Fortunately, he just needed to pay tens of thousands of yuan per year at a discount for renting it. It was not expensive.
Ding Ning randomly took several strength instrument for inspection and found that the strengths were all designed according to his requirements and they also installed an electronic strength meter which could accurately test the strength. Ding Ning was very satisfied with the goods.
After unloading the goods, Xia Ziyu invited Ling Fei and Ding Ning to get some food and drinks together.
Ding Ning looked at the time, and found it was before 12 o’clock. Seeing Ling Fei looked convinced, he immediately nodded to agree.
Xia Ziyu came over here by truck, without driving his own car. Thus, he got into Lingfei’s Cayenne. Ding Ning drove the Phaeton behind them.
It made Xia Ziyu secretly speculate about Ling Fei’s identity. He drove a luxury car worth more than two million yuan. Could he be Ding Ning’s investor?
On the contrary, the low-key Phaeton was misjudged by him. He thought it was a Passat which he thought suited Ding Ning’s current assets.
However, he shouldn’t be blamed for this. After all, the Phaeton had a similar model to that of the Passat. He couldn’t distinguish them if he didn’t look at them carefully.
Xia Ziyu grew up in a poor family. Although he was rich now, he did not care about eating in a street vendor. They just found a barbecue stall at the entrance of a bar and began to gobble down the food.
Xia Ziyu drank like a fish, and Ling Fei also liked drinking. Although Ding Ning didn’t like drinking very much, he found it difficult to refuse such kindness, so he simply ordered a few bottles of Erguotou and drank.
These two old men had the drinking zest, but disliked beer which was not strong enough. They said that a hard drink like Erguotou was the drink for true men.
Ding Ning had not drunk much since his childhood. As soon as the strong drink Erguotou entered his throat, he felt that his throat was burning hot, which made him blush.
After drinking a few cups, he felt dizzy, burning hot all over and even talked indistinctly. Nevertheless, the feeling of walking on air made him feel unprecedentedly relaxed and comfortable.
