Chapter 457 Business Negotiated
The god of wine's name is Ge Hua, and he is an employee of a nearby winery. The salary for working in the winery is not very high, and the only requirement is to be in charge of the wine.

This request sounds like nothing, but this guy can drink a lot. Sometimes the director of the winery even wonders if there is something wrong with hiring this guy with such a low salary, because the salary he deducts is not enough to cover his daily drinking expenses.

Li Shengli was kind of thinking about taking this person to Sijiu City. Being able to drink so much would definitely be very helpful for his social activities. Li Shengli planned to ask this person if he was willing to go back to Sijiu City with him.

With the protection of the god of wine, Li Shengli planned to discuss business with Petrov.

So Li Shengli sent someone to invite Petrov, who had been a little anxious these two days.

Time is money. If the business deal with Li Shengli cannot be concluded, he will negotiate with each factory one by one.

This time, Li Shengli confronted Petrov directly and decided to make the deal in one go.

"Hey, Lee, my friend, it's really hard to do business with you."

Petrov was very happy to see Li Shengli again and gave him a bear hug. He had been drinking very happily these days, and if he hadn't been unable to delay, he would have continued drinking with Li Shengli.

But even if the business deal fails, the friendship will still be there, and we can have a drink together then.

Li Shengli couldn't stand Petrov's enthusiasm. These white men had thick body hair, and sometimes the smell on their bodies was really unbearable for Li Shengli.

"Oh, Petrov, my friend, let's have a good talk this time." Li Shengli was not afraid this time. It was uncomfortable to be drunk. It would be even more uncomfortable to suffer losses while negotiating business while drunk.

Now that he has a secret weapon, he is no longer afraid of Petrov.

"Oh, my friend, it seems that you are very confident today." Petrov was not afraid of this. He was also a drunkard and would not miss drinking if there was wine to drink.

The most important thing is that he can drink a lot. Before, Gu Bei had invited several people to take turns drinking with him, and they were all knocked down by him, so Petrov is not afraid to talk about business over the wine table at all.

"My friend, you can invite a few more people over next time, otherwise I won't be able to drink enough." Petrov looked at Li Shengli with sarcasm in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Petrov, I found someone to drink with you this time."

Li Shengli also smiled maliciously at this time. You like to rely on your drinking ability to conduct such a negotiation over the wine table. Then I will find someone to deal with you. Don't think I am playing tricks if you suffer a loss.

When Li Shengli brought Petrov to the reserved location, he saw Ge Hua waiting in front of his bodyguards.

Li Shengli gave Ge Hua a look, signaling him to follow him.

It was only after they entered the private room of the restaurant that Li Shengli introduced the two of them to each other.

However, when Petrov heard Ge Hua's name, he just smiled disdainfully, but a slightly sharp light flashed in Ge Hua's eyes.

This is the Russian who Boss Li mentioned is a great drinker.

After everyone was seated at the table, Ge Hua carefully looked at the Russian in front of him. It seemed that he couldn't tell how much he could drink, but he heard from Li Shengli that Petrov had defeated five people in drinking alone before, and finally died together with Li Shengli.

When all the dishes were served, Li Shengli winked at Ge Hua, and Ge Hua began his performance.

Ge Hua gave all kinds of reasons, such as "this is our first meeting, let's drink together", "we have a good relationship, so let's drink together", etc. Although Petrov didn't understand what he said, this gesture of persuading others to drink is almost universal, so the two of them were evenly matched. While Petrov was a little drunk, Li Shengli took the opportunity to propose his cooperation conditions to him.

Li Shengli did not plan to sell the things directly, but to barter them. Petrov had to exchange the things traded here for local specialties of corresponding prices.

Even if there are no specialty products, we still need some things produced by heavy industry, such as machine tools and other equipment.

This kind of thing is very popular in China.

Petrov had drunk a little too much by this time. Although he was not so drunk that he couldn't tell the difference, people usually become generous and magnanimous after drinking too much. This was the best time to take advantage of someone.

So Li Shengli signed a mutually beneficial cooperation agreement with Petrov while he was half drunk.

As for Petrov being at a disadvantage? That is definitely impossible. For businessmen, whether drunk or not, they will instinctively let themselves take advantage.

Everyone enjoyed the meal, especially Lee Seung-ri, who got things done without drinking any alcohol.

As for Ge Hua, he was also very satisfied. He loved the life where he could earn money and eat and drink as much as he wanted.

As for Petrov, although he was a little upset after sobering up, there was no major problem with the contract he signed with Li Shengli, and the price was within his acceptable range.

It's just that Li Shengli asked him to purchase those mechanical equipment in the country, which is a little troublesome, but since he was asked to purchase them, there is still profit in this matter.

So he doesn't feel that he is at a disadvantage in this contract.

Now that the cooperation has been reached, both parties have to return to their respective companies to prepare for the transaction.

Especially for Li Shengli, his network of relationships here has not yet been established.

"Li, my friend, you are so cunning that you actually found such a powerful person to come here." Petrov was still worried about his strength at the drinking table. "Next time I come, you must let him continue to drink with me."

It had been a long time since Petrov had drunk so happily outside. He was not going to let go so easily after finally meeting an opponent.

"Don't worry my friend, next time you come I will bring him with me to entertain you." Li Shengli now realized that he could not let Ge Hua go.

Moreover, he also needs a local person to be in charge of the business here. Just because of Ge Hua's ability in socializing, Li Shengli has to promote him, at least to be a vice president.

After seeing Petrov off, Li Shengli found Ge Hua and asked for his opinion.

Of course Ge Hua had no objection to this, as it was considered a promotion for him.

Li Shengli also wanted to train Ge Hua a little bit, so in the next few days, under the leadership of Ge Hua, he discussed cooperation with various local factories.

There is no doubt about these, especially for those state-owned factories. Since the reform and opening up, the state-owned factories have been having a harder and harder time. Although Li Shengli's move cannot be considered as timely help, it is also a great help to them. At least they have money to pay their salaries.
