11. Windfall
To say that the most well-informed place there is undoubtedly a place to consume such as a bar, it is obviously inappropriate to smile and smile, so Li Xiang only brought a few junior martial arts family puppets, and as for the order from the pharmacist's union, he is not in a hurry.
Although the money is in the account, it is not in a hurry to work for a day or two, not to mention that if you want to make great progress, you have to gain a foothold here first.
……
The Aegean Bar, a small bar, is quite famous in the city of Yakma, and there are many merchants and adventurers who come and go here, and as a commercial city, this bar is really small.
Dressed inconspicuously, Li Xiang blended in with the crowd, and the business of the bar seemed to be very good at this time, with waiters walking back and forth everywhere.
"What do you need, sir?" A waiter walked up to him and asked softly.
"A Rolando, and some more snacks for me."
"Yes sir."
The bar looks harmonious, fights don't seem to happen, and there are many fashionably dressed beauties sitting near the bar, looking for their targets.
At this time, Li Xiang was suddenly attracted by what the two people behind him were talking about.
"Brother, you don't know, something strange happened in Mount Gramaya recently."
"What happened? I think you came on an escort mission. ”
"Hey, don't mention it, that's bad luck." The man took a sip of wine and scolded viciously: "I don't know if it's that turtle grandson, who has attracted the iron-eating beast to that vicinity, one is okay to say, but it has attracted a special race, Gan!" ”
"What? A race of iron-eating beasts? How is this possible? Haven't they always lived alone? ”
"Who knows? Anyway, many teams are ready to join in the fun, and the price of potions has risen sharply recently, so I have to hurry up a little, lest they all be sent to the front line. ”
"It seems that this is really the case when you say this, the most basic healing potions have now risen to 240 a bottle, those damn pharmacists, their hearts are really dark."
"Isn't it......" During the conversation between the two scolding, Li Xiang didn't hear any useful information, and he didn't know what the iron-eating beast was, listening to the tone of these two people, it should be a very powerful beast.
At this time, the waiter also brought Luo Landu and dim sum, and after paying the money, Li Xiang listened to the conversation of these people here leisurely.
There is not much useful information, but what Li Xiang cares about the most is the recent news of the shortage of medicines, and the pharmacists' union has made a lot of money during this special period.
And on the front line with the Condor Federation is the Skrull Federation, which is said to be competing for a very rare resource star, and this news has nothing to do with Li Xiang.
He stayed here all morning, then left, and no one noticed him, and before returning home in the afternoon, he went to inquire about the discarded machinery there, and then followed the guidance of passers-by, and finally came to a huge waste treatment plant.
This place is dedicated to the city of Yakma for metal waste, and many trucks come and go every morning and evening.
Li Xiang lingered outside the factory for a long time, when suddenly a man in a security guard came out of it and asked Li Xiang, "Hey, who are you?" What are you doing here? ”
"Well, I'm just looking." Li Xiang touched his nose and looked at him with some embarrassment and said.
"What's so good here, this factory is about to close down, God knows how the boss will hold on until now." The security guard didn't drive Li Xiang away, but just kept complaining on the side.
"I see a lot of metal waste waiting to be disposed of, why is it about to go out of business?" Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, isn't there a big truck here transporting metal garbage?
"Hey, don't mention it, speaking of which, the boss did make a lot of money a few years ago, but then it changed." The security guard sighed and handed Li Xiang a cigarette, Li Xiang hesitated, but still took it, but he didn't smoke it.
"How?"
"Hehe, brother is interested in this industry?"
"That's true, otherwise I wouldn't have come to see it." Li Xiang nodded and said.
"Okay, I'll tell you that." The security guard took a puff of cigarette: "This metal garbage is transported from the industrial zone, and the garbage disposal fee on our side is 1200 star coins per ton, but the furnace in the factory needs to consume about 500 star coins of electricity every time it is opened, and every hour it lasts is 300 star coins, and a ton of metal waste needs to be smelted for about 1.5 hours, and it is taxed, and the smelted metal waste is cooled and then made into metal ingots, and a ton of processed metal ingots is only sold for about 600 star coins, and there is also a tax here." ”
Li Xiang thought about it carefully, the cost of this factory is not small, and a factory must have employees to work, right?
If the salary is low, no one will want to do it, and if the salary is high, the factory can't afford to support it.
The security guard said that, and that's really what happened.
Li Xiang rolled his eyes and asked the security uncle: "Uncle, tell me, does your boss have the heart to throw the factory out?" ”
"Why not? He's been looking for a successor lately, but no one wants to take over the mess. The security guard sighed and said, "We haven't been paid for two months, but we're dying." ”
"Oh? How much is he going to throw out? ”
"It's about 300,000 yuan, and the most valuable ones are the two furnaces, and then the land of the factory needs some money." The security guard said after a while.
"Three hundred thousand? So cheap? Li Xiang was stunned, such a big factory was only 300,000 yuan and was thrown away, is this boss stupid?
"Cheap?" The security uncle was stunned for a moment, took Li Xiang's arm and asked, "Little brother, do you really want to take this factory?" ”
"Ang, I used to be in this business, but then I moved to this planet and wanted to go back to my old business and buy a company." Li Xiang said casually.
The security uncle took two steps back, looked at Li Xiang carefully, and was amazed: "It seems that he was born in a big family, but this factory is basically a loss-making business all year round, why do you want to do this?" ”
"Loss? That's because your boss can't find a way to make money. Li Xiang smiled mysteriously, "As for what I do with this factory, I will have to talk about it after your boss is replaced." ”
"Oh?" The security uncle nodded, thought about it and brought Li Xiang to the door, took the communicator, shouted a few words inside, and then turned his head and led Li Xiang in with a smile.
Along the way, there were disorganized metal objects everywhere, some were flying machines, and Li Xiang even saw a dilapidated spaceship, which is probably the treasure of the town store in this factory, right?
After all, generally speaking, spaceships are officially authorized, and private spaceships entering the planet will be considered illegal invasion.
