Chapter 655: Tengyu Logistics
In just two days, Xu Tengyu got the business license.
For an ordinary person, it would take at least half a month to get a business license like this.
The company’s registered capital is five million yuan, which is the largest amount of funding Xu Tengyu can get from his father.
As soon as he got the documents, Xu Tengyu called Lu Yiming and said, "All the documents have been processed. Tengtong Logistics is now established! From now on, I am also Mr. Xu."
Being the first time in his life to start his own business, Xu Tengyu felt a great sense of accomplishment. Moreover, with a business genius like Lu Yiming planning his future for him, he felt that his future was bright and he was on a steady path.
Lu Yiming said, "You are awesome. But does the company name have to have the word tong in it? Don't you think it's unlucky?"
Xu Tengyu looked puzzled and said, "Is it unlucky? Teng is my name, and Tong means that logistics extend in all directions. I think it's great. How about calling it Tengda Logistics?"
“…”
Wow, it's either Tong or Da? The three Tongs and one Da didn't do very well in their previous lives. Even together, they couldn't fight as well as Shunfeng. It can be seen that choosing the wrong name in the martial arts world still has some impact.
"Then you might as well call it Tengyu Logistics, and just use your name, soaring across the world and reaching the universe."
When Xu Tengyu heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Hey, this name is good, Mr. Lu has a vision! I'll go change the name right now, Tengyu Logistics, haha, that's appropriate!"
Lu Yiming said: "You don't need me to teach you what to do next, right?"
Xu Tengyu immediately said: "No need, just watch."
"That's fine."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Tengyu rushed into his grandfather Xu Changming's yard and shouted to Xu Changming, who was sitting on a rattan chair listening to the radio: "Grandpa, Grandpa."
Xu Changming was originally singing along to the radio, but was suddenly interrupted by Xu Tengyu. He was very unhappy and turned his head impatiently and said, "You bastard, what are you doing in such a hurry? Have you gotten into trouble outside again?"
Xu Tengyu stood still, put his hands on his hips, and gasped for breath. After a long while, he said, "Grandpa, calling me a turtle grandson is not good for you from a genetic point of view."
"Hey, you little bastard."
Xu Changming picked up the long pipe on the small table next to him and pretended to hit someone.
"Grandpa, I'm a little rabbit, so you're an old rabbit, right?"
"I said, you are itching for a fight, right?"
After all, he is a soldier, and Xu Changming has a bad temper.
Xu Tengyu quickly stopped Xu Changming's cigarette and said with a smile: "Grandpa, stop it, I was just kidding you. I've been very honest recently and haven't gotten into any trouble. I came here today to help you solve your problems."
"Help me solve my problems?"
Xu Changming looked at Xu Tengyu with suspicion.
He didn't even believe the punctuation marks in Xu Tengyu's words.
"Just you, I'm thankful that you don't cause me any trouble, and you're helping me solve my problems?"
Xu Tengyu said with a smile: "Grandpa, look at what you said. You should look at me with new eyes after three days of recognition, don't you know? I am no longer the little kid who only knows how to get into trouble. I have grown up!"
Xu Changming nodded slightly and said, "Well, I have become an adult who can get into trouble."
"Hey, Grandpa, you... let me be frank. Aren't you always worried about the placement of veterans? I have a perfect solution now!"
Hearing this, Xu Changming's expression suddenly changed.
The resettlement of veterans has always been a difficult problem.
For those who have made significant contributions to the country during special times, the country will certainly try every means to prevent them from shed blood, sweat and tears.
However, the development of society and technology today has made their skills useless.
It is certainly unrealistic for the state to directly pay for the support. In recent years, the country has prioritized economic development. After all, if the economy is to develop, it can only invest limited resources in other industries that can generate economic benefits.
This is the result of a combination of social factors, not the result of any one single factor.
"Can you still solve this problem?"
Xu Changming became even more unconvinced.
"You have such a brain? It would be better to say that you didn't cause any trouble. This is more credible."
Xu Tengyu looked aggrieved: "Do you think I am someone who only knows how to get into trouble?"
"Um."
“…”
Xu Tengyu was very depressed and quickly said, "I recently set up a logistics company under the guidance of Mr. Lu. Logistics is a labor-intensive industry that requires a large number of people. Moreover, veterans have natural advantages in physical strength and obedience. So I thought, there is no need to recruit people from the society, just use veterans directly."
After hearing what Xu Tengyu said, Xu Changming's eyes lit up and he said approvingly: "Good boy, you have a good idea."
Finally hearing a positive comment from his grandfather, Xu Tengyu was extremely happy and said proudly, "Really? I told you this method is feasible. If I can build a nationwide logistics company, how many employees would I need?"
Xu Changming said proudly: "If we can really do it, it will be regarded as helping the country solve its problems. I support you in this! If you need anything, just tell me directly!"
This plan was approved by Xu Changming, and Xu Tengyu was also very happy. He said, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I have already registered the company, and the long-term planning plan has been completed with the assistance of Mr. Lu. Now we are just short of manpower."
Xu Changming said without hesitation: "Are you short of manpower? Okay, I'll call the resettlement office and I can even assign someone to help you coordinate the work."
Then, he sighed and said, "This Mr. Lu is not a simple man. Can you contact him? I want to thank him in person."
The way logistics companies make money is still a bit ahead of its time these days. After all, only letters are delivered through the post office now, and online shopping is still a non-existent thing, so there is no need for logistics at all.
Lu Yiming did it, and also thought of the idea of killing two birds with one stone by resettling soldiers. He even helped Xu Tengyu with the follow-up planning, which made Xu Changming very curious about Lu Yiming.
Although there are countless legendary stories about Lu Yiming, they have nothing to do with most people. They just treat them as topics of conversation after dinner. Only those who have intersected with Lu Yiming can more deeply appreciate the essence of these legendary stories.
Xu Tengyu smiled and said, "I'll give him a call. I've told him about you before, and he admires you very much. It was he who came up with the idea of letting me start a logistics company."
As he spoke, Xu Tengyu took out his cell phone and called Lu Yiming directly.
"Mr. Lu, I've settled my business here. My grandfather said he wants to meet you. Hehe, are you excited? My grandfather is not someone that just anyone can meet."
On the other end of the phone, Lu Yiming had just finished class. After hearing what Xu Tengyu said, he couldn't help but complain: "What's the point of being excited? I'm not someone that ordinary people can easily meet, okay?"
Xu Tengyu suddenly fell into thought and said uncertainly: "Are you pretending to be cool?"
Lu Yiming quickly denied it and said, "Of course not! Forget it, old people just have privileges. I just happen to be free here, so I'll go over and meet him."
"Then wait for me at your school. I'll drive over to pick you up right away."
"No, just give me an address and ask my driver to drive me there."
The courtyard house is not luxurious, but it is heavily guarded, and the guards at the door look very difficult to deal with.
Under Xu Tengyu's guidance, Lu Yiming had a smooth journey all the way to the living room, where he finally met the real person - an old man half lying on a rattan chair.
The man in front of me is already in his seventies or eighties. Even in his twilight years, he still has an iron-blooded and murderous aura. After all, he has come from the war years, and the years have left .
Lu Yiming was not afraid of his power, but he admired his achievements for the country and the people, so he respectfully called out: "Good afternoon, old man."
Xu Changming looked up and was surprised to see that Lu Yiming was even a few years younger than Xu Tengyu.
Although he has not received much education, Xu Changming has rich experience after all, so he has a very accurate eye for people.
Among Xu Tengyu's peers, even those arrogant guys were as timid as a quail in front of Xu Changming. But Lu Yiming in front of him was calm and free and easy, very comfortable, and there was no trace of restraint caused by his status.
It is very rare for young people to have this kind of mentality.
Xu Tengyu quickly introduced: "Grandpa, this is Mr. Lu, the richest man."
"Mr. Lu, this is my grandfather Xu Changming, he was the commander of the battlefield back then."
Xu Changming waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about the past anymore."
He looked at Lu Yiming with a hint of curiosity, but it was not because of the title "Lu the Richest Man".
It is certainly surprising that he can become the richest man at such a young age, but money is nothing in Xu Changming's eyes. After all, people who have lived through that era generally feel that they are luckier than their comrades to be able to survive, and they don't care about material enjoyment at all.
"Boy, you are special."
Lu Yiming smiled slightly and said, “Of course, I am unique.”
As a reborn person, he is naturally unique in this world, and no one can compare to him.
Xu Changming appreciated Lu Yiming's arrogant answer even more.
Young people should be full of vigor and enthusiasm, otherwise how can they make a name for themselves?
When I was young, I was even more arrogant and proud than him.
Xu Changming asked, "I heard from Xiaoyu that it was you who gave him the idea of opening a logistics company."
Lu Yiming said: "It's me."
Xu Changming asked curiously, "You can do this business yourself, right? I've met many businessmen before, but none of them are like you."
Lu Yiming sighed and said, "Alas, I am often troubled by the fact that I am too good. It is too difficult for ordinary businessmen to make money, so they try their best to compete for some petty profits, and even go against their family and friends for this, and fight to the point of bloodshed."
"But I'm different! Making money is too easy for me. The little money I make from running a logistics company isn't much, and being the best in the industry would only earn me a few hundred million at best, but there are a lot of troubles, so I'm too lazy to do it."
Listening to Lu Yiming bragging seriously, Xu Tengyu felt a little overwhelmed.
A few hundred billion is the maximum you can get. Will you die if you don’t show off?
"Hundreds of billions is still a small amount of money?"
Lu Yiming shook his head slightly and said, "Do you think it's a lot? In fact, it's not much at all. In a slightly decent industry, if you are the leader in the industry, you can still make trillions, if not tens of trillions. In comparison, what do you think hundreds of billions or a hundred billion are?"
Xu Tengyu was about to refute, but Xu Changming said: "Although it sounds a little unbelievable, it is true. You are really an interesting young man."
Xu Changming admired Lu Yiming even more. Several hundred billion was just a small amount of money. This was indeed a ridiculous statement, but it was also true. This was a judgment that could only be made after a full understanding and evaluation of the industry. This showed that Lu Yiming had a very deep understanding of the entire industry and even other industries.
How big is his ambition for a person who looks down upon businesses worth tens of billions of dollars?
When doing business, it is good to be ambitious.
Only if you have big plans in mind can you not be greedy for small gains, because only such people can truly create a new world and achieve what others cannot.
At the beginning, Xu Changming was still wondering if Xu Tengyu had been fooled by someone again, after all, this kind of thing had happened before. Now after meeting with Lu Yiming, he was sure that Xu Tengyu had indeed been fooled - but Lu Yiming was not an ordinary liar, but a big dreamer with a very big vision.
Others may think that what you say is just a daydream, but as long as you finally achieve it, it means you have foresight, vision and a grand strategy.
Jack Ma in his previous life was such a big dreamer. At the beginning of his business, he kept painting big pictures for his partners. He was a small character who was rejected when applying for a job at KFC, but he managed to fool everyone around him. He always clamored to change the industry ecology and even wanted to change the bank.
Then……
He really did it!
As a reborn person, how could Lu Yiming lose?
He also knows how to deceive people!
After Xu Tengyu sent Lu Yiming away, he returned to the house.
Xu Changming said: "This Lu Yiming is really a strange man."
Xu Tengyu agreed with this comment and said, "Yes, Grandpa, I just heard about something recently. Didn't a plane crash into a building in the United States? After this happened, all the stocks related to aviation and tourism on Wall Street fell drastically."
Although Xu Changming doesn't understand stocks, this is obvious to him. He said: "It will definitely cause people to worry about aircraft safety. If something happens to an airplane, it's a big deal. When we were fighting, if an eagle hit a plane in the sky, it might destroy the plane and kill people."
Xu Tengyu clapped his hands suddenly and said excitedly: "Here is the problem! Half a month before this incident happened, Lu Yiming went to the United States and joined several financial groups to short the airline stocks of the United States! Isn't it a coincidence? He made tens of billions from this wave of national disaster in the United States! To be honest, some people are now saying that he hijacked the plane..."
Xu Changming sat up straight at once: "Did he really make tens of billions?"
Xu Tengyu was unsure and said, "We can only guess the exact amount. That's what people say anyway, and there's no exact number. After all, all his money is in private equity funds, and their financial statements are not open to the public."
Xu Changming nodded slightly and said, "If this is true, then this young man is really terrible. The layout of each link is linked together. He has the means and the sense of propriety to do this. He is indeed a hero! He is a man who can accomplish great things. He is willing to lend a hand to you, so you can save decades of hard work!"
Xu Changming not only had no objection to his grandson hanging out with such people, he even supported it wholeheartedly. It was much better than hanging out with Xu Tengyu like before.
Then, he said to Xu Tengyu: "Grandpa, I am old, but I still have some connections in the military. If you need me to step in, just let me know."
When Xu Tengyu heard this, he was immediately moved and said solemnly: "I know, Grandpa!"
After passing this hurdle of Xu Changming, the rest of the things will be much easier.
Xu Tengyu directly contacted the resettlement office and asked all the veterans to report to Tengyu Logistics. This incident was directly reported on the prime-time news of the mainstream media, causing a huge sensation. On the third day after the company was established, it received several heavy orders.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Yiming also announced that he would inject 20 million yuan into Tengyu Logistics and subscribe to 10% of Tengyu Logistics' shares.
Tengyu Logistics’ valuation suddenly soared to 200 million!
You know, the registered capital of Tengyu Logistics is only five million!
Even now, the company doesn't even have a decent office location.
As soon as Lu Yiming injected capital, Tengyu Logistics expanded in size like a balloon.
In fact, the 20 million was given to Xu Tengyu to burn. After all, logistics requires a lot of money in the early stages. Renting warehouses in various cities, recruiting staff, and opening up channels in all aspects all cost money.
Moreover, the early stages of development of the express delivery industry were often accompanied by violent conflicts. Rickshaw drivers in the old society fought for territory, and the competition among express delivery companies was not very gentle.
Lao Wang, the founder of SF Express, was even issued a killing order in the early days. It can be seen that not everyone can play in this industry.
From Lu Yiming's point of view, if he has the time to solve these problems, wouldn't there be something else that can make money faster than this?
So he directly invested in powerful people like Xu Tengyu who had a wealthy background. With the powerful BUFF of the military, what evil spirits would dare to get involved?
Beating? Threats of violence?
I'm sorry, our company is full of veterans, all of them are capable of fighting, and behind us stands the country, with millions of regular troops dominating Asia. Are you sure you want to take action?
The current situation is that as long as Tengyu Logistics does not bully others, its peers should go to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha.
