Chapter 173: A 10 Billion Loan, Soaring Crimson Preferred [5000 words, requesting monthly tickets!]_3
Zhou Cheng was naturally aware of the predicament Crimson Preferred faced under pressure from the other two parties; he also lacked such high-level authority and naturally did not wish to lend money.
However, when Xu He brought out the contract for channel trading, Zhou Cheng was shocked, and at the same time, he immediately agreed.
Even without the authority to loan out ten billion soul banknotes, he believed that as long as he reported to headquarters, they would grant authorization without delay.
Indeed, just as Zhou Cheng had thought, after the report, the headquarters confirmed and immediately empowered Zhou Cheng.
Then, both parties immediately finalized the contract details, and Xu He even had Zhou Mao step in to help at a critical moment.
Zhou Cheng also readily agreed.
He didn't believe that Undead Preferred or Xixi Preferred would dare defy him.
The credibility of Heaven and Earth Bank was unquestionable.
Let alone the ten billion loan, just the fact of having established a channel to the real world was enough to compel Zhou Cheng to act.
It was foreseeable that Crimson Preferred would climb to the forefront of national group companies by leveraging this.
Whatever Xixi Preferred, whatever Undead Preferred, they were bound to go bankrupt sooner or later.
Moreover, Xu He hinted that he was close to breaking through to become the Level 9 Ghost Emperor.
With this, Zhou Cheng's investment was absolutely secure.
If it wasn't for Xu He's disapproval, he even wanted to purchase some of Crimson Preferred's shares.
Of course, he personally couldn't muster such capital; it was only about using the name and funds of Heaven and Earth Bank to make the acquisition.
"Mr. Xu, are you really unwilling to sell any shares? There are many eyes on that Level 9 Spiritual Item at Treasure Tower."
"I'm willing to pay double the price to buy it," Zhou Cheng asked again.
"No, Mr. Zhou," Xu He replied with a smile, declining the offer.
He couldn't possibly let other group companies, especially those wealthy ones, acquire shares of Crimson Preferred.
"That's a pity. However, Mr. Xu, if you change your mind in the future, you can come to me, double the market price," Zhou Cheng said.
"Sure, I'll come to you if I need it in the future," Xu He said, making polite conversation.
"I will be leaving now. The ten billion still requires my signature to be transferred," Zhou Cheng said.
"That would trouble Mr. Zhou. This ten billion has been a huge help to me. I've reserved a private room at the Blood Chamber Hotel for tonight; we won't return until we're drunk," Xu He said.
"No problem," Zhou Cheng nodded and then left Crimson Preferred.
"I'll go reassure the staff first, and it's time to deliver those trucks we ordered."
"Remember, the road must be repaired first; otherwise, we can't ship out," Xu Yin stood up and said.
"Alright, once the loan from Heaven and Earth Bank is in our account, I'll arrange for the funds to repair the road," Xu He nodded.
For roads, fences, and the like, as well as the main building's cracks, Crimson Preferred could directly use soul banknotes for fast restoration.
However, the damaged main buildings, that is, the two storage areas and the damaged trucks, were irreparable.
The former required contacting a construction crew to rebuild, and the latter needed to be repurchased.
...
In the break room, Mu Rufeng looked at the newly restored wall and breathed a sigh of relief.
This proved that the crisis had passed.
"I didn't expect Heaven and Earth Bank to actually help us," Liu Mei was also extremely surprised.
"I'll go ask the General Manager," Liu Mei stood up and walked out.
"I'll come with you," Mu Rufeng's curiosity was no less than Liu Mei's; he also wanted to know why Heaven and Earth Bank would assist Crimson Preferred.
They left the break room and walked up the stairwell.
However, before reaching the sixth floor, they encountered Xu Yin coming downstairs.
"Mr. Mu, we meet again," Xu Yin greeted with a cheerful smile.
"Mr. Xu," Mu Rufeng also smiled in greeting.
"Great, Liu Mei, quickly, follow me. Those employees still need reassurance so they can get back to work."
"Mr. Mu, are you going to the General Manager's office? He's still upstairs," Xu Yin said.
Mu Rufeng acknowledged and, with a glance at Liu Mei, headed upstairs.
Liu Mei, in turn, followed Xu Yin downstairs.
Soon, Mu Rufeng reached the General Manager's office on the sixth floor.
After knocking and entering, Mu Rufeng immediately posed his question and Xu He did not hide anything, explaining everything on the spot.
"I see, it seems the channel contract is indeed very significant," Mu Rufeng said with a light laugh.
"Mr. Mu, rest assured, you will absolutely receive your rightful share. Plus, the ten billion loan I secured from Heaven and Earth Bank has been deposited."
"Next, it will be time for Crimson Preferred to soar. The value of our shares will rise with the tide," Xu He said.
"Then I'm waiting to make a fortune," Mu Rufeng said with a smile.
Fifty billion for a seven percent share might have been an overpayment, but Mu Rufeng still thought it was well worth it.
"Mr. Mu, at six o'clock tonight, I have a table reserved at the Blood Chamber Hotel; you must honor us with your presence. Mr. Zhou from Heaven and Earth Bank will be there as well," Xu He said.
"No problem," Mu Rufeng hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
With that, Mu Rufeng left Crimson Preferred.
...
As he walked out of the office, Mu Rufeng also saw the collapsed warehouse.
As for the cracked ground and walls, they were rapidly being restored.
Just as Mu Rufeng stepped out of the office building, the damaged walls and roads had already returned to their original state.
At the same time, he saw a convoy of brand new trucks coming from outside, entering the Logistics Park one after another.
Mu Rufeng looked at the piles of discarded trucks scattered throughout the Logistics Park, then at the shiny new trucks.
Mu Rufeng realized that Xu He had already arranged everything.
Even knowing that these trucks would be destroyed outright, he had still allowed them to remain there.
