Chapter 192 Negotiation (1)
Seeing that Huang Huamin was a little confused, Ye Changyan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
"I know you may be confused. If I have such an idea, why would I ask you to increase your share in Hua Man Ting?"
Huang Huamin was surprised that a young man like Ye Changyan could see through his thoughts at a glance. He only saw Ye Changyan smiling at him.
"I know you have your own connections and relationships in Shengjing, and it's not easy for you to manage these relationships over the years. Besides, we are already in a cooperative relationship. In a sense, we have a vested interest in each other, so I am willing to agree to your request."
Huang Huamin seemed to be thinking about something, but Ye Changyan had no intention of stopping talking.
"The main reason why I made such a plan is that I don't want to get too involved in the complicated network of relationships in Shengjing. I believe that you have been managing Shengjing for these years, so you should have a deep understanding of this. Therefore, I asked you to increase your share in Hua Manting to make up for my loss of interests with Su Yu Niang as much as possible. That's all."
Although Ye Changyan's words sounded so logical, Huang Huamin always felt that there must be some other reasons, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.
Ye Changyan saw Huang Huamin nodded thoughtfully, and then the two of them walked towards the Ye family's courtyard.
When the two men walked into the yard, they heard the sound of talking and laughing coming from the small flower hall next to them. Ye Changyan greeted Fang Xiaotong, and soon Fang Xiaotong ran to call Zhong Yunfeng over.
Seeing that Ye Changyan seemed to want to discuss something with Zhong Yunfeng, Huang Huamin took the initiative to walk towards the small flower hall next to him.
Huang Huamin had just entered the small flower hall and had not had time to taste the cup of tea poured by Fang Xiaomei when he saw Ye Changyan and Zhong Yunfeng coming into the flower hall one after another.
This made Huang Huamin a little confused. Shouldn't these two people carefully discuss how to negotiate with Qiu Zhenkui? These two people seemed to have just met and walked in. What result could they come up with?
Could it be that Zhong Yunfeng had discussed this with Ye Changyan beforehand? However, Zhong Yunfeng had always been within his sight. Except for the moment just now, Huang Huamin was almost certain that Ye Changyan and Zhong Yunfeng had almost no chance to talk alone.
Just when Huang Huamin was speculating, he saw Zhong Yunfeng speaking with a smile on his face.
"Boss Qiu came all the way from Shengjing just for this delicious candy. I am very happy. I wonder if you, Chang Yan, can find a place for me and Boss Qiu to have a good talk about this candy."
When Qiu Zhenkui heard that Zhong Yunfeng took the initiative to invite him to negotiate, he felt somewhat proud. After all, his Lihua Lane had a good reputation, and he had come all the way to this remote countryside, which showed his sincerity.
"Yunfeng, you know that I just moved today, so my house is inevitably a little messy. If you don't mind, Boss Qiu, please go to the study next door and sit down."
Qiu Zhenkui nodded to Ye Changyan's suggestion and readily agreed. Then he saw Fang Xiaotong leading Zhong Yunfeng and Qiu Zhenkui to the study room next door.
Huang Huamin saw that Ye Changyan sat down in the flower hall, and he became confused again. Huang Huamin was sure that Ye Changyan had a considerable share in this Wei Haojia candy, and when he tried to test him just now, Ye Changyan did not deny it.
But facing a shopping mall veteran like Qiu Zhenkui, who is very likely to become the largest purchaser of Weihaojia candy, Ye Changyan actually chose not to be present for negotiations with such a person. This made Huang Huamin a little confused.
Huang Huamin also discovered that Su Yu Niang, who was sitting not far away, seemed to be looking at Ye Changyan intentionally or unintentionally. With Su Yu Niang's cleverness, Huang Huamin didn't believe that she didn't see the position Ye Changyan occupied in this Wei Haojia candy.
Just a house like this one built next to a processing workshop can reveal some clues. Looking at Su Yu Niang's actions, we can tell that she must be confused as well.
Everyone in the flower hall seemed to have their own thoughts. All that could be heard from the other side of the screen were the occasional low laughs from Luo, Yu, and Erniu, as well as the childish voice of Huang Huamin's several-year-old son as he played.
Zhong Dingyi, who was standing aside, kept looking towards the study. He originally planned to go with his son to talk to Qiu Zhenkui, but he did not expect that Ye Changyan had no intention of entering the study, but asked Fang Xiaotong to lead people in. Zhong Dingyi also suppressed the idea of following him.
Zhong Dingyi was still a little worried when he thought that his son was facing a veteran who had been a big shot in Shengjing Business for many years. However, he had an inexplicable trust in this young man who was a few years younger than his son.
I don’t know what Ye Changyan said to his son in that moment just now.
Ye Changyan, who was sitting next to him, seemed to have not noticed at all that Zhong Dingyi, Huang Huamin and Su Yu Niang were looking at him from time to time.
At this moment, Ye Changyan, listening to the low laughter coming from behind the screen from time to time, was lost in his own thoughts.
Zhong Yunfeng once said that his stepmother was quite good to him and his aunt. In Zhong Yunfeng's memory, his stepmother had never deliberately suppressed his aunt, nor was she too obviously biased when treating his eldest brother, the legitimate son, and himself, the illegitimate son.
Ye Changyan observed that Luo's behavior today was generous and decent, with the dignified demeanor of a mistress of a wealthy family.
As Zhong Yunfeng's biological mother, Luo has a great say in Zhong Yunfeng's marriage. Regardless of whether Luo came today on her own initiative or at Zhong Dingyi's request, since Luo was able to sit in the carriage for half a day and come to this countryside in a friendly manner, it can be seen that she is broad-minded.
Ye Changyan was actually happy to see this happen. Whether the relationship between Erniu and Zhong Yunfeng would succeed or not, Luo's opinion still played a considerable role. Judging from Luo's attitude towards Erniu today, Ye Changyan's intuition told him that Luo should be quite satisfied with Erniu.
Zhong Dingyi, Huang Huamin and Su Yu Niang all seemed to notice that Ye Changyan's mouth corners were rising. Ye Changyan quickly came back to his senses from his thoughts and realized that he had been distracted just now. He was a little embarrassed for a moment and then he gave everyone an apologetic look.
At this moment, Fang Xiaomei came to the small flower hall with a teapot, which greatly eased the awkward atmosphere.
As the host, Ye Changyan started chatting with several people on the scene on some light topics.
About an incense stick of time passed, and the door of the study was pushed open. Except for Ye Changyan, Zhong Dingyi, Huang Huamin and Su Yu Niang all looked at the study in shock.
Qiu Zhenkui and Zhong Yunfeng walked out of the study one after another, both with warm smiles on their faces.
