After My Son Traveled Through Time, I Can Hear His Inner Thoughts

Chen Fei, who suffered a double blow to his career and marriage, suddenly discovered that he could actually hear his son's inner thoughts.

What?! My son traveled back from the future?

...

Chapter 153: Hanging a Donkey with a Carrot

Chen Fei smiled slightly when he saw this. Du Li and Zhang Zhiguo were a little excited. If Hongqi Factory made money from selling the land, they could get their wages back.

Du Li is now working for Chen Fei. She has a stable job and with the money she brings back from the company, she can save it for big things in the future.

Most of the workers at the Hongqi Factory thought so. The wages owed to them by the factory would be a considerable sum to be paid back in one lump sum.

Now if Chen Fei said that he didn't want to sell the land, the workers might not agree with him. Du Li might nod on the surface for the sake of work, but she might have some thoughts in her heart. He and Du Li knew each other, not to mention the others.

Chen Fei was not angry, this was human nature.

The workers haven't received their wages from the factory for a long time, so it's normal for them to feel hopeful now.

"Did Du Li hear how much Warehouse No. 4 could sell for?"

Chen Fei took a sip of tea and looked at Du Li calmly.

Zhang Zhiguo felt a little strange, but he didn't dare to ask. He felt that Chen Fei's words were full of hidden meaning.

Is Dad trying to get information? Is he planning to take action against Warehouse Number Four? Those investors are truly clueless. They're exactly what I expected.

Listening to his son's words, Chen Fei remained calm. After acquiring the commercial bank, he became even more confident in the restructuring of the Red Flag Factory. Although the commercial bank was small, it was still a bank and its level was different from before.

Those investors have banks behind them, and he is no exception. It is his own bank, which finally makes him on par with investors at a certain level.

"I haven't heard of this, but some people saw Zhang Rihua chatting and laughing with those deputy factory directors and investors. There must be quite a few!"

No matter how many people there are in Hongqi Factory, how much can each of them get from this money?

It is impossible for Du Li to get all the overdue wages like this, not to mention that the transaction has not been successful yet and the money has not arrived.

Chen Fei could report this to Guan Hongyue, and Guan Hongyue would definitely intervene, but that would mean his realm would be too low. He would only look for his superiors when something happened, so what future would he have?

Chen Fei no longer hid the truth. He explained to Du Li and Zhang Zhiguo, "I had originally proposed to the municipal government that we take over Warehouse No. 4, and Mayor Guan agreed. If I had taken it over, the money could have been used to pay salaries at the Red Flag Factory."

"Chen Fei, do you want it?" Du Li was stunned.

Chen Fei nodded. Now that he had started talking about it, he didn't intend to hide it. He also hoped that Du Li and Zhang Zhiguo would help him.

"I'm planning to open a supermarket in the city center, and Warehouse No. 4 is a great location." Fade Chen said, "That way I can hire factory workers. As for Zhiguo, I haven't assigned you because I know you're hardworking and diligent. I want you to manage this supermarket."

"Ha..." Zhang Zhiguo was stunned. He had no idea that this was how Chen Fei planned to arrange him.

Seeing Du Li going to work now, Zhang Zhiguo was also anxious. Now the whole family depends on Du Li to make money. However, although he was anxious, he did not look for Chen Fei. He believed that Chen Fei would definitely arrange it for himself.

I didn't expect Chen Fei to actually let me manage the supermarket. From the sound of it, I wanted to be the leader. "I can't do it!"

"Whether it works or not is not up to you, but my opinion!" Chen Fei laughed. "Later, my suggestion was blocked by the city government because Mayor Jiang wanted to cooperate with investors!"

"This Mayor Jiang is the one we chased off last time, right?" Du Li continued angrily, "You can tell he's full of empty promises. Why does he have to cooperate with investors? Why can't he cooperate with you?"

Chen Chen interjected, "Cooperating with investors might make for a better performance, but the money those investors use is actually from the bank, not US dollars. So, they're just playing with it."

Du Li nodded, feeling that it was a bit of a famous watch.

"Warehouse No. 4 is the last remaining asset of the Red Flag Factory. Those investors are interested in Warehouse No. 4 just to get into real estate, build houses and sell them!" Chen Fei said, "Once they get the land for Warehouse No. 4, they won't be interested in restructuring the Red Flag Factory anymore. Do you understand what I mean?"

Du Li nodded: "Those big bosses just want to make money and leave us alone, right?"

"Yes, that's simple and clear. That's what I mean. They didn't want to manage the factory workers before, but they're willing to negotiate for the sake of the land." Chen Fei said, "Now they're starting to work with your factory leaders. Their goal is almost achieved. If they take Warehouse No. 4, the Red Flag Factory will be worthless, and no one will care about you anymore."

Du Li smiled and said, "That's perfect, you just happened to take over the Red Flag Factory!"

Chen Fei shook his head. "Du Li, I also need Warehouse No. 4. Why? There are so many people at the Red Flag Factory, and I need to arrange work for them. I also need to help the factory repay its debts. Without Warehouse No. 4, many of my plans won't be realized, and I don't have that much money for restructuring. So Warehouse No. 4 is just as important to me!"

Du Li was a little skeptical: "Your factory is quite large, you can probably accommodate quite a few people."

"There are tens of thousands of people in the Hongqi Factory. No matter how big my factory is, it can't accommodate so many people. So they must be divided. Some people come to work in the factory, some go to the supermarket, and some go elsewhere. But this is a series of plans. If Warehouse No. 4 is gone, how can my supermarket still exist? Wouldn't this plan be interrupted?" Chen Fei said.

Of course, Chen Fei would not tell Du Li everything. Many things were company secrets and could not be told to outsiders.

As long as Du Li understands the significance of Warehouse No. 4 to him, that would be enough.

Bang!

Du Li slapped her thigh and said immediately, "I understand. We must take over Warehouse No. 4. We can't let those investors get away with it. They only want to reap the benefits but don't want to take care of the business!"

Good analysis!

Chen Fei thought that Du Li's explanation was simpler, so when she passed it on to the other workers, everyone would understand.

"Even if the investors bought the land, how much money can you and Zhiguo get? Hongqi Factory not only owes everyone wages, but also owes the bank a loan. The money passes through the bank, and the bank may withhold it if it sees it. It may not reach you. Even if it reaches you, there are so many people in Hongqi Factory, how much can each person get? If the money is distributed now, when will the next distribution be?" Chen Fei said it bluntly.

Du Li stood up and said, "I know what to do. I'll go discuss this with everyone now. That damn Zhang Rihua has betrayed the long-term interests of us workers again."

Du Li ran away after she finished speaking. She was a very impetuous person. This matter was not only about salary, but also about whether Zhang Zhiguo could become a supermarket manager. This was a big deal for their family.

[Dad is so mean, he's using a carrot to hang the donkey again. Can't he try a different trick?]

Chen Chen also understood it and immediately complained in his heart!
