The plant is very large and long, the area is almost the same as an indoor swimming pool, which is full of various processing equipment, the more conspicuous is a whole particularly long workbench, about one meter and a half wide, there is a stool every two or three meters next to the platform, which means that there is a worker's station, of course, there are no workers on the stool now, and the workers have already left work. There are all kinds of carving knives on the station, long and short, sharp and round, with hooks and forks, all kinds of them, and the cutter heads are very sharp, emitting a silvery-white light under the reflection of the overhead light. At the back of the workstation are a variety of machines that are used to process wood. There are a lot of mahogany piles of wood on the surrounding wall, so you can see what it is all about. The smell of wood and gum wafts through the air, and it is very refreshing at first glance.

After looking at the factory, Director Wang took Li Rui to the warehouse to check the mahogany and rosewood wood inside, as well as some finished furniture.

In the place where the finished furniture was placed, Li Rui's eyes swept over the Taishi chair, the Eight Immortals table, the coffee table, and the Duobaoge, and finally stopped at a four-pillar carved hollow mahogany shelf bed, and asked after looking at it for a while: "How much can this bed be sold for?" Director Wang said: "200,000 yuan!" Li Rui was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "So expensive? Isn't it a year's income to sell ten such big beds?" Director Wang smiled bitterly: "You didn't calculate the cost, this big bed doesn't say labor, just the wood raw materials are around 100,000." Counting labor, if such a big bed is sold, it will make twenty or thirty thousand yuan at best. And such a shelf bed, because it is too classical, is difficult to be accepted by the market, and it is good to sell one in half a year, so we basically only accept reservations. ”

Li Rui asked: "Since the market does not accept it, why do you still produce this kind of flashy bed? Why don't you design some styles that can keep up with the times and are widely accepted and even loved by the market?" But if you have the heart to change, then after you buy the factory, you can try it, I am here to wish you success in the change, hehe. Li Rui raised his hand to the other furniture and asked, "What is the best selling in this?" Director Wang said: "It's all very good, tables and chairs, screens, bookshelves, multi-treasure and so on, they all sell very well." ”

Li Rui estimated that he was lying, if the sales were very good, the annual income of this factory would not only be more than two million, but four or five million or even tens of millions, of course, it may also be related to his negligent management, he eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles all day long, has no intention of running the factory, and the workers in the factory either follow the slack, or see no hope and are disheartened, which is naturally inefficient.

Coming out of the storeroom, the four of them came to the office of the engraving factory and sat down to talk.

Li Rui began to ask Director Wang about the acquisition, the first of which was the remaining time and rent of the factory lease.

The landlord answered this question, he said, the lease contract signed by the engraving factory has not expired, and it can be used for more than two years, that is to say, Li Rui does not have to pay the rent of the factory for more than two years, and even if the contract expires, the rent for a year is only more than 70,000 yuan, or 6,000 yuan a month.

Li Rui was still satisfied with the price, nodded, and asked Director Wang about the placement of workers in the factory.

In fact, since Li Rui wants to buy this carving factory, he naturally wants to keep all the workers in the carving factory, because they are all familiar hands, and they can work without training or teaching, and these workers are more valuable than the empty shell of the carving factory, but he is worried that Director Wang will take the opportunity to open his mouth and use these workers to knock himself a big deal, that is, to package these workers and sell them separately, so he made the appearance of "I want to fire all the workers in the original factory and recruit them from scratch".

It turned out that he thought too much, and Director Wang may have this or that problem, but he really has nothing to say to his workers. He expressed the hope that Li Rui would keep all the workers, first, because these workers have the skills and have worked in the factory for five or six years, and if they are left behind, they will be able to continue production without any training; second, they will continue to earn money, otherwise, if they are fired on the spot, all these people will be temporarily or even permanently unemployed, and it is very likely that their families will also lose their sources of income, and when the time comes, there will be a family crisis, "which will damage yin morality."

In this way, it is equivalent to Factory Director Wang begging Li Rui to keep all the workers, and naturally he does not need to spend money to buy these workers. In other words, the purchase price of 2 million includes these 20 workers.

Li Rui asked some other important and sensitive questions, and Director Wang said anything, and he was quite simple and kind.

After all the circumstances were clear, Li Rui thought in his head. At this point, his initial idea has changed, initially, he wanted to take over this engraving factory by himself, as his own money bag and rear industry, of course, he can't buy it in his own name, so he thought of Ding Yijing just now, because Ding Yijing has a precedent of investing in Li Yulan's dried fruit and cereal processing factory on his behalf. But as soon as he thought of Ding Yijing and her affection for him, he felt that he owed her too much, so he changed his mind and planned to buy this carving factory and give it to her. This engraving factory operates casually, and she earns more money a year than she earns as a store manager at KFC, and if she can return to Qingyang to work because of this engraving factory, then the two can meet from time to time, isn't it more beautiful?

Thinking of this, Li Rui got up and said, "You sit down first, I'll go out to ask for the opinions of the leaders, hehe." ”

Director Wang, Yang Peng and others thought that he was going out to call his wife, but only when his wife agreed to him did he dare to buy it, and he didn't feel anything wrong.

Li Rui came outside, took out his mobile phone and dialed Ding Yijing, and after answering, he didn't say hello, and said straight to the point: "Can you come back to work?" Ding Yijing was stunned for a moment, and said, "Yes, but why go back to work? For you?" Li Rui said: "Yes, it's for me." Ding Yijing said neatly: "I can, but can you?" This time it was Li Rui's turn to be stunned, and said strangely: "Can I? I was already working in my hometown, what can't I?" Ding Yijing sneered: "When I say can, do I mean that you can settle my mother? I'm hiding in the provincial capital now, and my mother can't catch up with me, so she can't force me to remarry, but if I go back to my hometown to work, then my mother can't pester me every day to force me?" I'm sure I can't stand that, she's going to be annoyed every day, so you're going to have to settle her down for me and keep her from pushing me, but can you do it?"

When Li Rui heard this, he was immediately speechless, and secretly complained in his heart, baby quietly, don't give me a problem, in fact, don't let me settle your mother, it's too late for me to hide from your mother now.

Ding Yijing asked: "Why did you suddenly think of letting me go back to work and help me find a good job?" Li Rui said: "I want to buy a carving factory, give it to you, let you be the backstage boss, you don't have to do anything every day, find a factory director to help you do all the work, you will save yourself working so hard, and you will earn a lot by the end of the year, at least much more than you make in KFC......," Ding Yijing intercepted: "But then I will have nothing to do, I will die empty." Li Rui said: "Then you will be both the boss and the factory director, why don't you find something to do if you have nothing to do?" Ding Yijing was silent for a while, and said softly: "I know that you love me, and I love you too!" Li Rui was a little emotional when he heard this, his eyes were moist, and he said: "With your words, it is worth it for me to die for you." ”

Ding Yijing reprimanded: "Phew, don't say anything frustrating, I haven't finished talking yet...... You men all like the new and hate the old, I'm worried that if we live in the same city, you will get bored with me too early, so I'd better stay in the provincial capital, so that we can keep a distance between the two of us, and keep it fresh, and I won't have to save my mother from forcing me to remarry. Li Rui said: "Actually, even if you come back to live, we won't see each other every day, I'm very busy, maybe two or three weeks to see you, so don't worry about no distance." In addition, I really love you, it's not that I won't be interested in you after I get you, if I were that kind of man, I wouldn't miss you for more than ten years. You said that your mother forced you to remarry, but if you hide in the provincial capital, she won't be able to find you?

Ding Yijing was silent for a while, as if moved by what he said, and asked: "What is that engraving factory for? Is the business good? How much money do you plan to buy?" Li Rui replied one by one: "It is made of imitation Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, and the business seems to be okay, with an annual income of more than two million yuan and a net income of more than one million." This is still the factory director did not manage well, if you manage it well, you can sell better. As he spoke, he briefly introduced the situation of the carving factory to her. Ding Yijing asked: "How much is the acquisition?" Li Rui said: "Two million two hundred thousand, two million purchase price, and 200,000 yuan for the factory's debt." Ding Yijing snorted: "You are rich." Li Rui said: "I can't say that, it's just that I have made a lot of good friends, and these good friends treat me very generously." ”

Ding Yijing said again: "Spend more than 2 million for me, are you really willing?" Li Rui sneered: "You are not by my side now, otherwise I will have to beat your ass." Don't you know, with our relationship, I am willing to spend any amount for you, two million are willing to spend two million for you, and twenty million are willing to spend 20 million for you, and you are still testing my mind, is it interesting?"
