Chapter 1181 A New Look

Zhang Xiaobai began to understand what Tang Jing meant.

The steel industry is so good now, many people will definitely flock to it. Once it collapses, many people may jump off the building.

This is not an exaggeration. There is a popular saying nowadays that the bold will die of overeating and the timid will die of starvation. Such people dare to risk their lives for the future.

Zhang Xiaobai sometimes dares to gamble. When he acquired a steel plant, he gambled, but he only gambled when the industry was at a low point, and never dared to fight when the industry was at its peak.

For him, that was tantamount to seeking death.

Zhang Xiaobai thought about it and said: "Properly arrange production, try not to accumulate products, reduce expenses and be prepared to tighten your belt!"

Fortunately, there is no loan now, otherwise you have to pay it off first by any means.

Tang Jing said: "I agree! I mean the same thing. In addition, the situation in Tangcheng, people are crazy now. Let's not talk about the small ones. Many people are preparing to build steel plants. If they collapse, they will suffer heavy losses!"

Tang Jing is the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, and is more competent than Zhang Xiaobai, the president.

Zhang Xiaobai pondered for a long time, shook his head and said: "Persuasion is useless! You and I know the nature of our chamber of commerce, who really listens to us?"

"It's like they found a field of gold, and we insist on saying it's a mirage, who can believe it?"

Tang Jing took a sip of tea and smiled bitterly: "To be honest, not only do they not believe it, I don't believe it either. If the steel plant is owned by me alone, I'm afraid I will lose my mind and expand it!"

In front of money, few people can stay sober enough!

Zhang Xiaobai said: "The most critical issue is that your and my judgment is just based on feelings. Whether the steel industry will collapse and when it will collapse is an unknown!"

Tang Jing said: "I'm just worried, what if?"

Zhang Xiaobai said: "If it happens, you and I are both Tangcheng people. If we can do something for our peers, then do something!"

"Anyway, let's not be so crazy and be prepared!"

After discussing the two things, Zhang Xiaobai drove away.

The eldest brother's house was bustling, and the ingredients had been sold long ago, waiting for Zhang Xiaobai to come back for dinner.

Zhao Tianhao and Cheng Jianhui also arrived.

Everyone chatted while eating.

In a heated room, they ate steaming hot pot and drank ice beer.

It was so refreshing!

Zhang Xiaobai raised a bottle and said with a smile: "Brothers and brothers! I'm back! Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Everyone blew into the bottle.

Only a few people, including Zhang Xiaobai, drank it, and some even couldn't swallow it after two sips.

It was so damn cold, so cold!

Men should be straightforward. If they can't drink two sips, they should drink more.

In the end, they all blew.

Li Bao touched his mouth, "It's no good, it's cold all over!"

Everyone laughed.

It seems that no matter how warm the room is, drinking ice beer in the winter is really not a good thing. For the sake of health, change glasses.

Zhao Tianhao was the biggest and toasted a glass.

Next was Niu Yi, then Cheng Jianhui, then Niu Er...

After everyone toasted, they started to drink their own.

Zhang Xiaobai raised the glass and toasted to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei said, "Why are you toasting me? Brother Hao and Brother Yi didn't even toast me!"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled, continued to hold the cup, and asked, "Shitou, tell me the truth, how much have you lost in the past two years without mining?"

It can be said that Shi Lei withdrew when the market was developing fastest, in order to support his good brother.

Zhang Xiaobai did not stop him at that time, because he felt that it was already the peak at that time, and now it looks like it's only halfway up the mountain.

Shi Lei understood what was going on and frowned, "What do you care?"

Zhang Xiaobai said, "It must be hundreds of millions!"

Shi Lei said angrily, "Are you going to drink or not? I've been holding it for a long time!"

Zhang Xiaobai drank three cups in one gulp!

Shi Lei accompanied three, and finally said that Zhang Xiaobai was really hypocritical.

After toasting Shi Lei, Zhang Xiaobai raised the wine glass and looked at the little bald head.

Li Bao was frightened, "Brother Bai, the things in the steel industry have nothing to do with me!"

Zhang Xiaobai said, "Yes, the money Uncle Li earns is yours after all, so your family lost more because of my decision!"

Xiongfei Iron Mine is the largest mine in Tangcheng, much larger than Shi Lei's mine.

Li Bao raised the bottle of wine to his head, "You say it again? If you say it again, I will open my head!"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "I don't respect you, I respect Uncle Li, you drink for him!"

Zhang Xiaobai drank three more in a row, and Li Bao did the same.

Then Zhang Xiaobai looked at Niu Yi. He had been in Jiangcheng for two years. Fortunately, he had a brother to accompany him, otherwise he might have encountered something.

Zhang Xiaobai was about to speak, but he didn't dare to speak when he was swept by a look from the brother.

Zhang Xiaobai smiled awkwardly.

Zhao Tianhao raised his glass and smiled, "We are all brothers, don't be pretentious, whoever is pretentious will drink a penalty drink!"

Then everyone agreed and drank the wine in the glass.

Tobacco and alcohol are inseparable. The more you drink, the more you like to smoke, especially when you drink to a certain extent.

After a while, the whole house was filled with smoke.

Ji Xiaorou hurriedly opened the window to let out the smoke. Those who knew it thought it was a smoke, and those who didn't know thought it was a fire.

Zhang Xiaobai said: "Brother Hao, how is your mine?"

Zhao Tianhao smiled and said: "It's another bumper year!"

In 2007, we made more money than in previous years!

Zhang Xiaobai said: "I just chatted with Sister Jing for a while. We both agree that the good days of the steel industry will not last long. Dengfeng Steel is ready!"

No need to say too much, just a few points will be clear.

Zhao Tianhao was silent for a moment and said, "I know! I've made plans too!"

The situation is very good now. If someone else said this, Zhao Tianhao would never believe it, let alone do it.

But Zhang Xiaobai said it, Zhao Tianhao believed it, and he would do it.

This is an unreasonable trust.

Zhang Xiaobai smiled bitterly and said, "I hope this judgment is more reliable, and I can't let my buddy suffer losses again!"

Shi Lei sighed and said, "Xiaobai, you think too much. Money is indeed a good thing, but what can you compare it with!"

"Compared with healthy feelings, money is really not that important, and considering our worth, no matter how much money we make, it's just the number in our bank card that has increased, and it has no impact on our lives!"

"How good is it for us to be together now? Eating hot pot and bragging, working together and talking nonsense, where can we find such a life?"

Shi Lei, who is usually not good at speaking, actually said so much, and it seemed very reasonable.

Zhang Xiaobai was stunned for a moment and said, "I suggest that we all toast to Shitou! This guy has changed a lot after three days of absence!"

Everyone laughed and toasted.

Shi Lei was a little embarrassed.

Ji Xiaorou smiled and said, "You don't know that Shitou loves to study now, and he reads books when he has nothing to do!"

Shi Lei smiled and said, "Old Four, there is no one like you, adding fuel to the fire, right?"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and asked, "Old Four, what book is Shitou reading?"

Ji Xiaorou thought about it and smiled and said, "The story of 105 men and 3 women!"

Everyone laughed again.

Luckily, the whole building is owned by the family, otherwise someone would definitely come to the door.
