However, in Nan Hao's view, only Bing Tianyi is currently suitable for this task, and there are three reasons for this.
Nan Hao did not think much and sat beside Bing Tianyi, whispering, "Brother Bing, if you take on this task, I guarantee you will succeed. First, you are currently vying for the position of West District Boss, and one thing is certain: you are definitely in a strong position to win. Once you become the leader of West District, many matters there will basically be under your control. Second, you have broader connections than others. Since the opening of your small shop last time, almost everyone in this small county knows you; despite your young age, you know many people. For example, Crow, Chen Huaqiang, Bai Jie, and Shi Tao—each of them is a prominent figure in the county. Third, you don't need to worry about money; think about it: those who do big business usually start by using other people's money to make profits."
Hearing Nan Hao's words left Bing Tianyi even more confused. Of course, he was determined to obtain the position of West District Boss, but he found it hard to understand the latter two points regarding connections and money.
Although these people congratulated him on the opening of his shop that day, he knew that most of them were just acquaintances. For instance, Shi Tao was invited by Crow. It would be a delusion to expect these people to help him with anything.
Thinking of this, Bing Tianyi smiled wryly at Nan Hao beside him and said, "Big Brother, do you really think these people would be willing to help me?"
"As the saying goes, no profit means no early risers. The reason these people are willing to deal with a kid like you is that they see advantages in you. Let's temporarily understand this so-called advantage as a benefit. Think about it—among these people, who hasn't asked you for help before?" Nan Hao looked at Bing Tianyi and asked directly.
Once these words were spoken, Bing Tianyi began to understand a bit.
Comparing himself with Shi Tao, he realized that he had never met Shi Tao before, yet Shi Tao came to congratulate him on his opening; the intention was simple—Shi Tao wanted Bing Tianyi to read his fortune.
As for Crow, it was even clearer; previously Bing Tianyi helped Crow resolve issues with Brother Kun without any effort from Crow himself—Brother Kun willingly became one of his subordinates. Such assistance was something others could not achieve.
Regarding Chen Huaqiang, Bing Tianyi didn't need to think too much about it; however, Bai Jie remained somewhat enigmatic. Even now, Bing Tianyi still had no idea what Bai Jie actually did.
Thinking about these things, Bing Tianyi looked at Nan Hao and said frankly, "I can confirm that I've helped everyone else with something; however, I'm still unclear about Bai Jie. To be honest, I still haven't figured out what Bai Jie does."
Upon hearing Bing Tianyi say this, Nan Hao quietly replied beside him, "As for Bai Jie, we don't need her for now. Of course, in the future, we should avoid asking her for help if possible."
Seeing the expression on Nan Hao's face made Bing Tianyi feel that Bai Jie's identity was somewhat unusual. Out of curiosity, Bing Tianyi looked at Nan Hao and asked, "Can you introduce me to what Bai Jie actually does? She seems to be running more than just a hair salon."
Nan Hao sighed helplessly at Bing Tianyi's inquiry and said, "Let's wait until later for me to tell you about that; for now, we should focus on the matters at hand."
Bing Tianyi smiled and asked Nan Hao, "So what do you think we should do now?"
"First, go find the police and ask about the current situation of the Construction Company under Big Head. Then, contact the manager of the previous Construction Company to consult on related matters. These tasks can be handled by me, Rat, and Duck Brother. You need to figure out a way to secure a loan over the next few days, find someone to guarantee it, and manage to get ten million." Nan Hao said directly to Bing Tianyi.
Upon hearing this, Bing Tianyi almost panicked.
Ten million was an astronomical figure for him. He knew that for his current situation, not to mention ten million, even getting one hundred thousand was uncertain.
Sitting beside him, Bing Tianyi wore a bitter smile and curiously asked Nan Hao, "I mean, big brother, you really think highly of me. How am I supposed to come up with ten million in just a few days? My dad isn't a banker!"
"But your future father-in-law is one of the richest in the county," Duck Brother teased Bing Tianyi at that moment.
Bing Tianyi was very curious and asked Duck Brother, "Brother, how do you know about this?"
"Hehe, what kind of people do you think we are? Wang Zhiqing spent several million to bring us three here. If we didn't have this ability, how could we help others?" Duck Brother replied with a smile.
In fact, this was also something that Nan Hao and Duck Brother had guessed. They based their assumptions on Chen Huaqiang's personality and his daughter Chen Qian's working habits, combined with recent events and various inquiries, which led Nan Hao to such a bold idea.
Otherwise, Nan Hao might have consulted Bing Tianyi about this matter since he understood the current bank policies; if they casually lent money to a kid like him, the bank would have gone bankrupt long ago.
"Alright then, let's proceed like this. I'll go look for Chen Huaqiang this afternoon," Bing Tianyi said with a mindset of trying his luck.
Nan Hao nodded and said, "Okay, we'll first meet with the police this afternoon to understand the relevant situation. Tomorrow I'll contact the responsible person at the Construction Company under Big Head."
Bing Tianyi nodded. After chatting for a while longer, he got up and left.
Walking down the street, Bing Tianyi kept laughing to himself while thinking about the ten million. Of course, at that moment he held no hope of actually securing a loan. After all, he knew his own situation and age.
By four o'clock, Bing Tianyi arrived at Chen Huaqiang's home. At that time, Chen Huaqiang had just returned home after handling some business matters. When Bing Tianyi knocked and entered, Chen Huaqiang smiled curiously at him and asked, "What brings you here? Are you looking for our Qian Qian?"
"No, I'm here to discuss something with you," Bing Tianyi replied directly with a smile at Chen Huaqiang.
Chen Huaqiang frowned and looked at Bing Tianyi with some surprise, saying with a smile, "What do you need from me? Come in and sit down, let's talk."
Bing Tianyi entered and sat on the sofa in the living room. Although Chen Huaqiang's family assets were worth millions, the furnishings in the house were not much different from an ordinary person's. This alone indicated that Chen Huaqiang must have come from a difficult background.
The two sat facing each other, and Chen Huaqiang asked Bing Tianyi about the business at his store and how things had been at home recently. As Bing Tianyi answered, Chen Huaqiang's wife brought over two bowls of noodles and smiled at Bing Tianyi, saying, "Child, hurry up and eat. We can chat after dinner."
Bing Tianyi shook his head and smiled, "Auntie, you all eat first; I had something before coming here."
Upon hearing this, Chen Huaqiang frowned and said, "Such a big young man, you should be able to finish a bowl of noodles. Eat first, then we can talk about why you came to see me."
Seeing that his future father-in-law had given a firm order, Bing Tianyi could only pick up the bowl and start eating. After Chen Huaqiang's wife brought out a dish to go with the noodles, she smiled at her husband and said, "I'm going out for a bit. You and Tianyi can finish your meal and just put the bowls in the kitchen afterward."
Chen Huaqiang nodded in agreement. After Bing Tianyi finished one bowl of noodles, Chen Huaqiang went to the kitchen to serve himself another bowl. He brought it out and smiled at Bing Tianyi, saying, "Alright, now tell me what you really need."
Bing Tianyi hesitated for several seconds before looking directly at Chen Huaqiang and saying, "Uncle Huaqiang, I'm here because I need your help to loan me some money."
"You child, if there's any trouble with your family's business, just tell me directly. Is there really a need to go to the bank for a loan? Do you think your uncle is short on money?" Chen Huaqiang looked at Bing Tianyi with a helpless smile.
Bing Tianyi replied honestly, "The amount I need this time is a bit large."
"Is one hundred thousand enough? If not, I can give you another hundred thousand," Chen Huaqiang said after taking a bite of noodles.
In order not to scare Chen Huaqiang, Bing Tianyi quickly said, "You should eat first; after you're done, I'll explain everything in detail."
Seeing the serious expression on Bing Tianyi's face made Chen Huaqiang hesitate as well. He thought to himself about what this kid was really up to. Without thinking too much more, he finished his bowl of noodles quickly. Afterward, Bing Tianyi swiftly tidied up the tableware and put it away in the kitchen.
When he came out and saw Chen Huaqiang lighting a cigarette while sitting on the sofa looking at him curiously, he asked, "So how much do you plan to ask for?"
"Ten million," Bing Tianyi stated directly.
Chen Huaqiang just took a puff of his cigarette when he heard Bing Tianyi say those three words, and he suddenly choked, coughing violently.
Bing Tianyi quickly spoke up, "Uncle Huaqiang, I know this number is a bit large, and you might find it hard to accept."
After catching his breath, Chen Huaqiang waved his hand and said, "No, no, it's not that. I'm just curious about what a kid like you plans to do with such a large loan."
Upon hearing this, Bing Tianyi replied honestly, "Many buildings in the West District are managed by Big Head's Construction Company. Now that Big Head has passed away and his Construction Company is under investigation, these projects have come to a halt. So I want to take out a loan to recruit the staff from Big Head's Construction Company and establish my own Construction Company. Then I can take over these projects and do them myself."
Hearing Bing Tianyi say this made Chen Huaqiang look at the kid with newfound respect. He had always thought he was quite impressive for being bold in business as a child, but after hearing Bing Tianyi today, he realized what it meant for the younger generation to surpass the older.
However, as a businessman, Chen Huaqiang knew that the market was like a battlefield and understood that one should not profit from different industries. After some thought, he looked at Bing Tianyi and asked, "Do you understand construction?"
"No."
"Then do you know that one should not profit from different industries?" Chen Huaqiang inquired.
"I know," Bing Tianyi nodded.
"Do you think if the Construction Company is established, you will be able to make money?" Chen Huaqiang asked seriously again.
At this moment, without even thinking, Bing Tianyi asserted confidently, "Absolutely. The urban area is continuously developing westward. In less than ten years, the county will border Huaxi Town. Given such a long distance, the amount of work required will be significant. If possible, I plan to rent all the land on the western side at a low price to plant saplings. When it comes time for land compensation, it could exceed ten million."
Seeing the confident look on Bing Tianyi's face, Chen Huaqiang was even more curious and asked, "The government hasn't made any decisions yet; how do you know the urban area will definitely move westward? And that it will border Huaxi Town?"
