Chapter Ninety-Five: Buying a Factory

On the 28th of the lunar month, the regimental training camp was also on vacation, and after a month of training, these honest peasants, although they were not reborn, looked very energetic. The regimental training uniform and the family ding uniform are different, and the cotton clothes, cotton pants, and cotton hats produced by the Zhangjiazhuang clothing workshop are swollen by the wearers. There was no requirement to cut hair, that is, everyone washed their hair with lime water before entering the camp, so as not to bring lice into the barracks. With a cotton hat, this hair cannot be tied up in a bun, but can only be tied up with a strap.

Before the holiday, I paid two taels of silver per person, and the rest was gone. In contrast, the 120 freshmen in the Jiading Lecture Hall across the wall are a completely different scene. If you enter the school, you have to shave your head first, and with the example of the previous issue, no one will resist this now. The students' costumes are all from modern times, not to mention good-looking, but also lightweight. The outer head is a tweed coat, a cylinder hat is worn on the head, and everyone carries a backpack, which contains a little New Year's goods issued by the school. There are not many things, but there are cigarettes, alcohol, sugar and canned food, compared to those group exercises, it can be described as a world of difference.

This difference in treatment naturally gives everyone a hint that the students are superior.

If you want to enter this minority, you have to study hard in the literacy class at night, and those with excellent grades can be sent to the Jiading Lecture Hall, or you can apply for the exam by yourself, and have the opportunity to take the exam every six months.

The vast majority of the team training is still very satisfied with the treatment here, and there are two changes of clothes all year round, which was unimaginable in the past. Whether it's food, it's just that I'm tired from training. Are the croppers still afraid of being tired? Joke about it.

With a military salary of two taels of silver, he walked into the hall of the military service station. Isn't it a team exercise? Why does the word "army" start everywhere here? You don't understand, but you don't need to understand, just remember.

The purchasing power of two taels of silver is very amazing, and most people choose to buy grain, and only think about other things when they have a little money left. Everyone's situation is different, and in general the biggest sales are Xiaomi. There are a lot of wheelbarrows waiting outside the barracks, and it is easy to earn money as a soldier during the New Year, which is already a matter of experience.

The regiments went out of the barracks in twos and threes, and walked in groups with good relations, one by one wheelbarrow after another, loaded with all kinds of New Year's goods, and the camp was empty after one morning, leaving some soldiers who had volunteered to stay behind to guard the barracks. There are not many of these people, that is, more than a dozen, these people are not because they don't want to go home, but they are more kind, and the chief stood up when he offered to sign up to stay behind.

But soon these people became the object of envy, because they were paid an extra month's salary. I used the money to buy New Year's goods, and someone sent them home to ensure that the family could feel the benefits of his group training.

Ding Zixiong is not a student now, as the leader of the first batch of students, he is now the first captain of the regimental training camp, and Weng Zhengqing, the difficult brother who squatted together in the small black house, is the deputy captain. Among the other cadets, some were left as instructors, and a few who were accurate in marksmanship were selected separately and received some special training every day. More are like the two, serving as commanders at all levels in the regimental training team. I was tossed very miserably by the instructor before, but now this set is used to deal with these rookies, and it tastes good to turn over and be the master.

Don't look at them all beautifully, everyone knows in their hearts that once they really want to go to the battlefield, they all have to stand in the front row. This is clearly written in the officer's code, you can not follow it, and if you run away or retreat, the superior officer will execute you on the battlefield.

As the captain, Ding Zixiong was the last one in the team to leave, and Weng Zhengqing was also in the same group. The wheelbarrow has been rented a long time ago, and one person has a cart of New Year's goods, and after breaking up on a fork in the road, they each get on the horse and leave. Military horses are a treatment that can only be enjoyed at the level of an officer, and this regimental training camp itself is a place with a strict hierarchy. The people of the Ming Dynasty had a high sense of identity with this.

Weng Zhengqing's current salary is 18 taels of silver per month, and Ding Zixiong has 2 taels more than him. The difference of half a level is the difference of 2 taels of silver. In fact, the highest salary is not the officer level of this team, but the special team composed of those who are particularly good at marksmanship and some good skills, and they get 22 taels of silver. Why do you take so much, just look at other people's training. In the winter, lying in the field is half a day, or even longer.

Wen Zhengqing will not be jealous of these people, and when he goes to the battlefield, some of the people of the special team are the so-called scouts, and they will die first. Then it was the turn of the officers at all levels. It is worth mentioning that when recruiting for group training, it was said that 5 teams were recruited, but in fact 10 teams were recruited, of which 5 teams were called reserve regiment training teams, and their main task was to be responsible for logistics and baggage. Those who do not do well in the regular regimental training team will be directly kicked into the reserve team, and if they do not do well, they will be expelled.

The officers of the regular army and the reserve were treated the same, but the non-commissioned officers were treated differently, and the reserve received half of the salary.

Weng Zhengqing, who was riding on the horse, looked solemn, but his heart could not be calm. The family brought a letter, saying that the door-to-door matchmaker stepped on the threshold, this time he had to go on a blind date, and his parents saw the daughters of several families, and it may have been set before the change. Now, he asked people to bring the letter back, saying that they had to read it for themselves to decide, and the parents at home agreed.

The officer of the Zhangjiazhuang regiment training camp, whose daughter is not tempted? Thinking of this, Weng Zhengqing couldn't help but be secretly proud. When I was queuing up to sign up as a housekeeper, I didn't eat people's eyes.

Out of Dengzhou City to the south, out of ten miles, the road ahead of you changed. What was once a narrow two-lane road has become a spacious four-lane road, with a hard concrete road paved on the ground, and the carriage runs happily tight.

The time is the 29th of the lunar month, tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and Chen Xie, who has been busy in Dengzhou City for several days, can finally take a breath. It's going to be the New Year, and when Chen Xie found that he didn't have the desire to go back to modern times for the New Year, he was a little taken aback. It quickly came back to the taste, probably because in this era, the sense of zài is stronger.

In this era, Chen Xie, who is getting deeper and deeper, looks at the blue sky of this era, and suddenly feels that it doesn't matter whether he goes back or not. Next year, if this road can be built under Dengzhou City, what will be the situation at that time?

………………………………

Outside the window is the oily spring rain, but unfortunately it is still not the sky of the Ming Dynasty. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Chen Xie returned to modern times again. In the 80s, the factory engaged in contracting and restructuring in the 90s, and this factory has changed from a large factory with more than 1,000 employees to a private enterprise with only more than 100 workers, and the factory has also moved from the urban area to the suburbs.

There are many such enterprises in this city, and when the real estate boom a few years ago, the boss took the business inappropriately, and the funds went to real estate. As a result, tens of millions of dollars were invested in a certain place in the west, and the bank collected the factory, but found that the factory was not worth a few dollars. Even if it is worthless, the bank can only choose to sell it, and if it remains in its hands, it will not even receive the interest. The director who had given the factory owner a mortgage had already been arrested and locked up in prison eating old rice and picking up soap.

The successor, Zhang Quansheng, was already desperate after many efforts to sell to no avail, and planned to dispose of the factory at a cheap price, which was simply selling land. Suddenly, someone called to inquire about the company's creditor's rights and transfer. Director Zhang held the attitude of trying it out if it didn't work, and decided to meet this stupid hat who was willing to consider taking over the debt of 30 million yuan to take over the company. The reason why I think so is because the land of this factory is worth at most 10 million. And now the real estate market is not so sluggish, a nearby high-end community has been handed over for three years, and the occupancy rate is less than one-fifth. And the workers in the field are also gone. Out of consideration for finding a home, the bank temporarily kept a few technical backbones, took money to support them, and waited for the unjust boss who was willing to take over the factory.

"Lao Li, wait a moment when you see the boss, be careful when you speak. I listened to his tone, and I wanted to restore the production. You have to come here round, the thing is done, and I won't treat you badly. Zhang Quansheng explained again and again, Lao Li, the technical backbone who stayed behind, did not want to leave, but he would not be able to do anything, and he could not take care of the elderly and children at home who went to work in other places.

"Okay, I'll make a note of that." Lao Li nodded, he had feelings for this factory, the boss ran away with his aunt and sister-in-law, and he still owed him three months' salary without payment. If the new boss really wants to resume production, he may be able to get his salary back.

The low-key Chen Xie still chose a Phaeton as a private car. There is no youthful vigor and flamboyance at all.

"It's Director Zhang, right?" Chen Xie is actually not very sure that the dignified director of CCB can personally receive his small customer. And he was waiting at the gate of this factory with an umbrella in the rain.

"It's Mr. Chen, right?" When Zhang Quansheng was a little disappointed, he saw the driver in the driver's seat and immediately put away his contempt. With such a cold and glamorous temperament, it is too abnormal to be a driver for this young man. Maybe there's hope for this.

After being polite, Wu Qi didn't even get out of the car, Chen Xie followed into the factory to take a look, and listened to Lao Li's introduction to the situation here.

"The boss owes three months of salary and no one wants it, there are more than 5,000 liners left in the warehouse and no one wants it, this thing has no technical content, there is a person who knows how to do it, recruit dozens of workers, and you can resume production." Lao Li was a little nagging, and Zhang Quansheng was very dissatisfied. What are you proposing for three months' salary?

Chen Xie didn't speak all the time, and after turning around, he came out and suddenly asked, "Lao Li, the original worker, can you call him back?" ”

Lao Li was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "It should be possible, it's no problem to call back half of it." ”

"I understand, Director Zhang, fifteen million, I want this factory. One more penny I'll give up. ”
