Chapter 1309: Chapter 1309: Orchard Investment

Lin Tian took in everyone’s expressions and chuckled lightly, "Of course it’s true, what need is there to lie to you? Now my dad holds fifty percent of the shares, no problem, right?"

"No, no!" Ha Wenbing shook his head like a rattle. Only an idiot wouldn’t agree. He had wanted to snatch twenty percent of the shares from Lin Hao before, wasn’t it just for that money?

If only he knew Lin Hao’s son was so capable, he would have reached out sooner, who would engage in those actions? Now it’s so awkward! At least it can’t be as close and friendly as before, that’s too big of a loss! It’s more heartbreaking than losing his father!

Thinking of this, although Ha Wenbing felt a pain in his heart, he squeezed out a smile and said, "Lin Tian, please don’t misunderstand me. Every time I see Mr. Lin, I think of my dad. He was only two years older than Mr. Lin. My dad left so early, so I wanted Mr. Lin to rest early, it didn’t mean anything else, please don’t misunderstand."

"Haha, I understand, I understand." Lin Tian nodded with a smile.

Ha Wenbing suddenly raised his glass and said to Lin Hao, "Mr. Lin, I’ve done things before that may have upset you, please forgive me. Here, I’ll drink a glass on my own."

After speaking, Ha Wenbing lifted the glass and tilted his head back, drinking a full glass of white wine. He even turned the glass upside down to show his sincerity.

"Hmph!" Lin Hao turned his head, not even wanting to give a glance.

This ambitious guy is much worse at being a person than his father! The Ha Family is unfortunate!

Seeing Lin Hao’s poor attitude, Ha Wenbing felt extremely displeased in his heart, silently cursing ’old fart,’ yet on the surface, he continued smiling eagerly, "I know Uncle is unhappy, so I’ll drink three more glasses!"

Ha Wenbing did as he said and drank three more glasses in succession without pause, like drinking water. In the end, his face wasn’t red, and his breathing was still steady. Clearly, he’s quite the drinker; four glasses of rice wine are nothing to him.

Lin Hao didn’t humph again, feeling unhappy in his heart, but considering that he’s an old acquaintance’s son, it’s better not to make things too difficult.

Lin Tian pondered for a couple of seconds and said, "But I have one more request."

Earlier, Ha Wenbing only saw Lin Tian as a kid, but now looking at him, there’s no real difference between him and a big boss. Without much thought he said, "Go ahead."

"I feel that registering the company like this is too hastily done. Leaving other things aside, first of all, there’s too little capital," Lin Tian said slowly.

Ha Wenbing nodded vigorously. Previously, he would have scoffed at this, saying if the funds are insufficient, then you should invest a large sum!

But now, Ha Wenbing thought differently. He was wondering if this kid intends to invest more money?

However, didn’t he just say he was going to make a condition?

Filled with questions, Ha Wenbing held back from asking, looking pitifully at Lin Tian, waiting for his follow-up.

"I can invest capital, find experts, and provide sales channels. But I want equity!"

Lin Tian’s voice wasn’t loud, but to Ha Wenbing it sounded like a thunderclap.

Wanting equity is no different than wanting money.

Ha Wenbing hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Xiaotian, how much do you plan to invest..."

"Initially, I’ll start with a hundred thousand and see," Lin Tian said casually.

"..." Ha Wenbing was speechless for several seconds. Start with a hundred thousand to see? That’s extravagant, isn’t it? A hundred thousand could buy out the orchard, and this kid is really willing to spend.

"But doesn’t your family already own fifty percent of the shares?" Ha Wenbing said somewhat troubled, knowing Lin Tian was targeting him with this obvious strategy he couldn’t fight.

Wanting both investment and equity was contradictory, but he had no choice. Lin Hao had half the deciding power, and Mr. Lo looked like he couldn’t wait to agree.

"That fifty percent is my dad’s, not mine. But the money, channels, and experts are all from me. A bit of equity should be fair, right?"

"How much do you want?" Lin Hao asked without showing any emotion.

Lin Tian thought for a bit and laughed, "Eighty percent would be enough."

Eighty percent would be enough...

Ha Wenbing practically wanted to jump up and strangle Lin Tian. Taking eighty percent means only twenty percent is left to split with Lin Hao, leaving just ten percent.

Reducing fifty percent to ten percent, nobody would be happy with that.

Before Ha Wenbing could speak, Lin Hao hurriedly said, "Fine! I think that’s fine!"

Ha Wenbing secretly rolled his eyes. Of course you’d agree, you old fool! That’s your son!

Lin Tian looked at Ha Wenbing, smiled, and said, "Wenbing, what do you think?"

Ha Wenbing nodded.

"The first batch is a hundred thousand, and there could be a second, third, or even more batches, plus sales channels. What do you think?" Lin Tian said.

Every word from Lin Tian felt like a sledgehammer, pounding directly on Ha Wenbing’s heart, making it thud loudly.

This guy is using money to crush him!

Too outrageous!

Lin Tian continued, "Even if you and my dad only have ten percent of the shares, I can guarantee you’ll earn a fortune, definitely no less than this year. Of course, you can refuse; that’s your right. But I won’t invest a penny or lend any help, even if the orchard isn’t very profitable. Our family doesn’t rely on this money to live, we treat it as a hobby for my dad."

"What do you mean a ’hobby,’ you brat? Do you take me for a child?" Lin Hao raised his hand and patted Lin Tian’s back of the head lightly, not hard at all, with a kind smile on his face.

He completely supported his son’s actions. He wanted Ha Wenbing, the ingratiating wolf, to suffer! Seeing his face like a bitter melon, Lin Hao felt a surge of pride inside.

Ha Wenbing’s impression of Lin Tian deepened, this guy’s actions are truly disgusting!

But there was nothing to hesitate about, he nodded with a smile almost without thinking, "This orchard is the hard work of my dad and Mr. Lin. As long as it gets better and better, a little equity is nothing. I’ve heard before about the top scorer in our town’s unified exams. Now seeing it firsthand, Xiaotian must be a reincarnation of a literary star, no, a god of wealth! Haha..."

Mr. Lo also laughed heartily along, a sincere laugh from deep within. Every word from Lin Tian was heard clearly, and this achievement couldn’t escape!

Lin Tian also laughed, but it was a skin-deep laugh, Ha Wenbing’s flattery skills were really poor.

After the laughter, Lin Tian took out his phone and dialed a number, saying, "Come in."
