Upon hearing this, Old Cui carefully examined Lei Tingjun again: "Brother, what's your name? I know Xiahe Village, it's in the deepest part of the mountains, it's very poor there!"

When did such a person emerge from the poorest mountain valley in Honghe Township?

"My name is Lei Tingjun." Lei Tingjun took out a spare notebook and pen that he always carried with him, wrote down a landline number, and handed it to Lao Cui.

“If your cooperative is interested in selling this brick factory, give me a call. I will send a truck to pick up the bricks the day after tomorrow.”

After finalizing the deal, Lei Tingjun turned and left.

Old Cui held the phone bill in his hand, pondering for a long time.

Thunder Army?

This name seems a little familiar.

Lei Tingjun originally had no plans to acquire the brick factory, but after visiting the site, he suddenly made this decision.

Honghe Township is nestled against mountains and beside water, with a pristine ecological environment. The mountains are full of red clay, and there is also sediment and silt near the river.

The raw materials for red bricks are all sourced from the mountains. They are dug out, mixed with other ingredients and mortar, and then molded into red bricks in a brick-making machine. After being fired at high temperatures, the finished product is produced.

The poor performance of the brick factory in Honghe Township was not due to the poor quality of their bricks.

Lei Tingjun has just personally inspected it, and the quality can be considered top-notch.

The only reason for their poor sales was the bad road conditions leading out of the village.

Because of the poor road conditions, the fuel and labor costs for trucks hauling bricks here are only slightly higher than those at other brick factories, making it more cost-effective.

Therefore, the brick factory group in Honghe Township will gradually be eliminated under such competition.

In order to survive, brick factories have no choice but to continuously reduce production costs and lower the selling price of bricks to attract customers.

The best way to reduce production costs is to reduce workers' wages.

With low wages, young people are no longer willing to work in brick factories, as the environment is not good. In the summer, the temperature inside the brick kiln is tens of degrees Celsius, which can almost melt a person.

Only a few elderly master craftsmen, who have worked their entire lives with this skill, continue to work in the brick factory to make a living.

So, after Lei Tingjun arrived at the scene and saw it, this idea came to him.

Let's acquire this poorly performing brick factory!
