Chapter 80: West Lake Returns from Vacation

Carrotta, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said when the car drove out of Fenyang Villa: Wen Kai, I have finally become your woman.

"What finally, you were originally, when your mother was pregnant with you, she pointed to her stomach and said that this child will definitely become Hu Wenkai's wife in the future." Hu Wenkai said seriously.

"You just talk nonsense, I guess Lao Yi can't wait in Shanghai, if you don't go back, they will find here."

"There are no major events in the company during this time, and they should be able to handle it." Hu Wenkai picked up a cigarette, and Carotta picked up a lighter to help him light it.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, I returned to No. 3, Lane 181, and the phone rang just after making tea, and it was Lao Yi who called, and I heard Hu Wenkai's voice say Boss, you are back, and I hung up the phone.

Hu Wenkai said to Carrotta that it would not take more than 10 minutes for Lao Yi and they would arrive, and Carrotta said that Lao Yi was hungry for the food he brought back from West Lake, so he changed his clothes and went to the trunk of the car with Liu's mother to get food and wine.

Li Congshan, Chen Yongcheng, Lao Yi, and Wang Xihai entered the living room at the same time, and Hu Wenkai wondered what about James, Lao Shi and Wang Daosheng? Wang Xihai saw his eyes looking around and explained that it was almost New Year's Day, James Bank was busy closing accounts at the end of the year, and Lao Shi and Wang Daosheng were the same, Wang Daosheng had a lot of mortgages due before New Year's Day, and there were many banks that transferred them.

Beckoning a few people to sit down, pouring the dishes on the table full of wine, Lao Yi said to them proudly: My Lao Yi is right, the boss must have a little look when he leaves Fenyang Villa, and he will send the boss wine and food.

Sun Daming complained indignantly: I am a direct leader, and I have not given me a gift after going three times and once, so I am simply leaderless.

Hu Wenkai slapped him and said: You can save it, there is already a slight surplus over there, more than we thought at the beginning, this supervisor is very competent, she knows that this property is mine, don't I scold you?

Then he said: Li Congshan transferred a truck from you to Fenyang Villa, Sun Daming bought a car tomorrow and sent it to Fenyang Villa together, and the two drivers taught them to use it there and then came back. New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve will increase the number of cars that will pick up and drop off guests and buy goods.

Sun Daming and Li Congshan nodded in agreement, Li Congshan said shyly: I really didn't expect that the big customer of our factory has always been Jiangnan Shipyard, boss, do you know, the walk-behind tractor only produced 5 sets of all to the shipyard to buy as a means of transport and pumping power. I heard that we have electrolytic copper, and we have remitted the money to buy five tons of electrolytic copper to the factory, waiting to pick up the goods.

Hu Wenkai said that it is not surprising that the purchase price of shipyards abroad will be very high, because the world's industrial powers know that China has no industrial base. Let the shipyard break down more products to the factory, but remember to clear the accounts one by one, and do not allow the accounts, and would rather not do it or not hang the accounts. Chen Yongcheng: Your trading company is the same, you can't give an account.

Lao Yi listed the products exhibited in the United States: two sets of furniture, 100 square meters of floor, 100 pieces of soup pots, pans, pressure cookers, table knives, 20 machine tools, 50 small walk-behind tractors, 10 large crawler tractors, 10 100-ton hydraulic presses, electrolytic copper, high-carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, manganese steel, and special steel of 500 kilograms each, which were transported to the United States by a 3,000-ton transport ship. Lao Yi asked Li Congshan if he was ready.

Li Congshan said that there are still large crawler tractors and small walk-behind tractors that are not ready, and the rest are already good, and the boss will go to the United States only after staying in Australia for three days on the 3rd of January.

Hu Wenkai added that all kinds of product manuals need to be prepared in 1,000 copies to be explained in detail, the parameters must be marked, and the hardness, elasticity, and fatigue resistance limit of each steel must be marked. I also had to accompany the ship with two English-speaking engineers to the venue to answer questions.

Lao Yi said that James helped Carrotta and Hu Wenkai to register a company in the UK, of which Hu Wenkai accounted for 50%, Carrotta accounted for 35%, Lao Yi accounted for 5%, and Xingye Industrial accounted for 10%, with a registered capital of 500,000 yuan, and the legal representative was Carrota, whose name was Kaita Mining Company.

Hu asked Carrotta to take a world map and circle the Pilbara region of Australia with Mount Tom Price, Mount Wheelback, Mount Newman and the narrow strip of land connecting Port Hedland. said to Lao Yi that this time when he went to Australia, he bought these pieces of land first, and no one wanted them, and it was estimated that he could buy them for three or four hundred thousand yuan.

Lao Yi never asked why Hu Wenkai's words and nodded directly, I will handle this matter, and it is estimated that it can be done in Australia in two days. Hu Wenkai instructed that in order to purchase land, it is necessary to obtain the right to open up mines and the right to export minerals.

Lao Yi arranged the New Year's Day dinner in the factory auditorium, with a total of 40 tables. To Hu Wenkai's surprise, forty tables is too much, Lao Yi and they will never have a company-wide dinner.

"Lao Yi, are you going to have a dinner party for all the people of the company?"

"Yes, to boost morale, I have arranged for a boat over there to transport all those who were not on duty that night to attend the dinner." Lao Yi said excitedly.

"Is the notice down?" Hu Wenkai asked, if there is no notice, stop immediately.

Wang Xihai said: "All departments have been notified, and each department is preparing a program for dinner performances. ”

Hu Wenkai waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay." But the company does not make a summary, and it is not good to spread too much profit. There was still a week to go, and everyone worked together to bring the 1920 year to a close. ”

Hu Wenkai arranged for Lao Yi to invite Wang Changrong to attend the New Year's Day dinner, and all the militia groups on Tianfen's side were on duty, and the one who was on duty could not leave his post to attend the dinner and immediately returned to Tianfen.

Li Congshan complained that Yang Siliang transferred almost all the company's engineers to Tianfen to conduct a hot-rolling workshop, and there was a shortage of people to produce tractor samples. Hu Wenkai reassured him that he couldn't delay the Chicago exhibition, and that he didn't think that the ship would leave on the 3rd of January, and the 3rd of January was the day they left on a passenger ferry.

Since breaking through the physiological relationship with Carrota, Carrota's hesitant heart has finally settled down, and she is busy watering the flowers and feeding the goldfish in the fish tank every day after work, and revising Hu Wenkai's manuscript. During this period, Hu Wenkai's manuscript was to discuss whether it was necessary to establish a national disaster relief and emergency response system, and to discuss the heavy losses of people's lives and property caused by the severe drought in Shandong and the flood and then drought in Sichuan in the past year.

Hu Wenkai is relatively busy, sometimes he can't write an article in a week, and most of them make an outline and Carrotta ghostwrites and submits it. The Chinese people did not pay attention to the disaster, the rich took care of their own leisurely life, the poor had no sources, and did not know about the disaster, and only one group was the students and intellectuals, who reacted strongly. Many people wrote to ask for donations, and declared that a disaster relief fundraising team would be set up to receive the money.

During this period of Industrial Real Estate, because of the close of the year, many foreign bureaucrats and rich people poured into Shanghai to buy real estate, and the hall on the first floor was crowded to see that the posture was not to buy a house or to grab a house.

After half a year of business, Xingye Real Estate has won a good reputation on the ground in Shanghai, including a year of quality leakage and maintenance, so that many buyers have tasted the sweetness, one-stop service solves the buyers' back and forth to buy furniture, repair wires, and redecorate. Even if the same house is a few hundred yuan lower than that of other companies, these buyers still choose to buy real estate.

Chinese traditionally choose large companies and companies with good reputation to buy large goods. Hu Wenkai had to park his car outside a street, and there was no way to park in front of Xingye Real Estate, and more than a dozen cars were almost blocked on the road. The welcome lady next to the gate saw Hu Wenkai coming, and said with a smile that Manager Sun Daming was in the office upstairs.
