Zhuang Zhou, unemployed at home, unexpectedly obtained a time-space gate that could travel to the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, and could also carry items with him. Thus, Zhuang Zhou embarked on...
Luo Yong kept cursing his teammates in his heart.
He knows Liu Xin too well.
He is so focused on technology that he has no idea what he is talking about.
He is straightforward and dares to say anything.
But now that the issue of electricity usage has been brought up, I can’t hide it anymore.
Luo Yong cleared his throat, glared at Liu Xin and said:
"To be honest, Mr. Zhuang, the power supply bureau has cut off the power to the factory."
"?"
Good job!
He keeps saying he has nothing to hide, but no one knows how much he has hidden.
This is a big deal!
The factory has no electricity, so what’s the point of producing anything?
"What's going on?" Zhuang Zhou asked.
"It's because I'm in arrears with my electricity bills that the power company cut off the electricity. Eh!"
This is a bit unexpected.
Zhuang Zhou asked again:
"How much do you owe for electricity?"
Luo Yong replied awkwardly:
"It's just over 120,000."
Damn it!
The photovoltaic bill alone owes 120,000 yuan.
That’s really great.
But this amount of money is not much for Zhuang Zhou.
Zhuang Zhou was silent for a while, then asked:
"Apart from the electricity bill, are there any other problems?"
As he spoke, he looked at Luo Yong:
"Director Luo, a man cannot stand without trust. Let's be frank and honest with each other. Don't hide anything from me."
Luo Yong hurriedly explained:
"Don't misunderstand, Mr. Zhuang, this is the only thing I've hidden from you.
There is nothing else.”
At this moment, Liu Xin said again:
“Why not?
Besides the electricity bill, aren't you planning on paying the factory workers' wages that are owed?"
Zhuang Zhou frowned and looked at Luo Yong.
Luo Yong suddenly felt a little embarrassed and quickly explained:
"Boss Zhuang, we were indeed negligent about this salary issue.
Due to the factory’s previous operational difficulties, employees’ wages have not been paid on time.
But don't worry, it's none of your business.
Once we complete the transfer, we will immediately pay the wages and resolve this issue as soon as possible."
Zhuang Zhou was silent for a moment. He understood that as the head of a company, he must be responsible for his employees, and withholding wages is a taboo.
He asked, "How much salary is owed?"
Luo Yong sighed:
"Probably over half a million."
More than 500,000 yuan is indeed a considerable amount of money for a recovering company.
Zhuang Zhou took a deep breath.
He understood that if he wanted to revitalize the company, he had to solve these problems first.
"Director Luo has already told you about your wages. They will be paid to you once the factory transfer is completed."
At this time, someone took over and said:
"Boss Zhuang, are you really rich?"
Luo Yong glared at the person who spoke and said in a deep voice:
"Boss Zhuang is in the antique business. He even knows the boss of Qingdu's Golden Hammer. Do you think Boss Zhuang has no money?"
As he spoke, he looked at Liu Xin, afraid that he would do something weird again:
"Okay, the main reason I called you here today is for President Zhuang to take a look. If you have any questions, you can raise them right here."
Liu Xin said:
"Boss Zhuang, you just said that the factory will open directly in three days. Is that true?"
"Oh, of course."
Zhuang Zhou also wants to start producing fertilizer as soon as possible!
"That's fine. There's no problem with manpower. Anyway, I'll have work to do sooner and get paid sooner. There's just one problem."
"What's the problem?"
"There are no raw materials left, so we have to buy them as soon as possible."
When Luo Yong heard this, he quickly blinked at him repeatedly.
Don't cause trouble.
Can't these things wait until the contract is signed?
But Zhuang Zhou obviously thought this was a good question.
How much money is needed to purchase raw materials?
Liu Xin had obviously done her homework. She took out a small notebook, handed it to Zhuang Zhou, and said:
"Boss Zhuang, I have listed all the raw materials the factory needs here. Please take a look."
Zhuang Zhou waved his hand and said:
"I won't read it. Just tell me how much money is needed to start it?"
Liu Xin took back the notebook, held it in his hand, looked at Zhuang Zhou and said:
"The total is 710,000. As long as the raw materials are available, I can start work in three days."
Zhuang Zhou hummed:
"Any other questions?"
"There's nothing else to do, except that the electricity must be connected first."
Zhuang Zhou nodded and looked at Luo Yong:
"Director Luo, is there any problem with the power supply?"
Luo Yong gave a faint smile:
"As long as I pay the electricity bill, there's no problem."
Ultimately, it’s all about money.
"Okay, let's sign the contract now and I'll transfer the money."
Zhuang Zhou said with certainty:
"Then I'll pay for the electricity bill, and you guys can handle the employees' back wages yourselves."
"Of course."
No more words said.
Zhuang Zhou looked at Liu Xin and said:
"Director Luo and I are going to sign the contract now, and then I'll transfer the money.
Please wait for me in the factory. I will come back later and have something important to announce."
…
Afterwards, Zhuang Zhou and Luo Yong rushed to the Longxi Town Enterprise Office to sign the transfer contract.
Zhuang Zhou called Li Tao again.
The transfer fee was paid into the antique shop's account.
Luo Yong smiled and handed over all the factory keys, official seals and other items to Zhuang Zhou.
"Mr. Zhuang, congratulations! You will be the director of Longxi Fertilizer Plant from now on."
Zhuang Zhou took it and said with a smile:
"Director Luo, I'd like to find someone to be the deputy director of the factory. Do you have any recommendations?"
Luo Yong smiled politely and said:
