Chapter 490 Talking Business

Arriving at the door of the factory director's office, Director Zhou came out to greet them: "Everyone, please come in."

Lin Xiaoxia and the others went in, shook hands with Director Zhou, introduced themselves, and then took their seats.

After they sat down, Director Zhou poured them some tea, then sat down across from them and said, "Since you took the initiative to find me, you should know my business. To be honest, this factory is my life's work, and I can't bear to part with it. I originally wanted to find someone who could treat it well, but reality forced me to do so. I'm short of money, so I can only sell it to whoever offers the highest price. I'm sure you all know that my factory is operating normally. After I take over, I don't need to change anything, and it's profitable."

Listening to Director Zhou's words, Lin Xiaoxia also felt his sadness and hardship. Such a good factory had to be sold because of his brother-in-law's fault, and it all depended on who offered the highest price. This was really heartbreaking for those who had worked so hard to build the factory.

But as a businesswoman, she has to put profits first. She said, "To be honest, I really like this factory, but I want to build a brand in the future, so after taking over, I still need to make adjustments. After all, everyone's business philosophy is different. Whenever there is a change of owner, there will be some adjustments. Now there are more workers, and when there are no operations, my expenses are also higher, so this is both an advantage and a disadvantage."

When Director Zhou heard Lin Xiaoxia talk about creating a brand, he smiled, a bitter smile: "I have thought about creating my own brand in the future, but unfortunately I don't have that possibility anymore. You are all young people with unlimited possibilities. If it were in the past, I would lower the price because we share the same ideals, but now I can only talk about money. Tell me a sincere price."

Lin Xiaoxia also realized that it was pointless to talk about anything else now because the other party was short of money.

So let’s start talking about price right away.

Lu Jingshen pointed out the biggest advantage of his family, which is that the money is guaranteed. His family has a lot of real assets for loan, so they can get the cash quickly. This is the biggest advantage.

Director Zhou also understood this, so the discussion was almost over quickly. However, Director Zhou still planned to consider it for three days and give Lin Xiaoxia and the others a reply after three days.

After the negotiation, Lin Xiaoxia and the others left the factory and went to the two factories they had previously favored. Both of them were now idle factories and no longer in production. One was a former state-owned enterprise that has now been dissolved, and the other was privately owned and poorly managed.

But to be honest, none of them are as good as the equipment in Director Zhou's factory. Of course, the price is also much lower. Each has its pros and cons, but Director Zhou's is the preferred choice.

Now the factory matter is almost settled, how can it be finalized in the next few days? So Lu Jingshen called a friend and asked him to give him the phone number of the clothing designer he found. Once the factory is settled, he will have to contact the designer.

At this time in the provincial capital, Sun Shengqi took Sun Qiang to meet his private lawyer, Lawyer Xu, who was also Sun Shengqi's friend for many years. He told Lawyer Xu about his ideas.

Sun Shengqi meant to hand over all the family businesses to Sun Qiang, and give the house and two shops to Wu Xiuyun and Sun Jian. As long as Wu Xiuyun and Sun Jian did not cause any trouble, these would guarantee them a life of worry-free food and clothing.

It was impossible for them to leave any business to them, because Sun Shengqi saw that Wu Xiuyun listened to her mother's family in everything, and Sun Jian was also spoiled by her.

Lawyer Xu was also aware of their family situation and naturally had no objection. He said that he would start processing these matters during this period and try to transfer all the businesses to Sun Qiang's name before the New Year.

These procedures are relatively easy to handle in this era, unlike decades later, when notarization and other things require a lot of procedures and proof. It is still much easier now.

After saying this, Sun Shengqi talked to Lawyer Xu about the property that Wu Xiuyun had transferred over the years.

Lawyer Xu was also in a difficult position because there was no account record or evidence of much of the money that Wu Xiuyun gave to her parents' home. It had been so many years and it was difficult to get it back.

But Lawyer Xu also said that he would do his best to recover as much as possible.

After talking with Lawyer Xu, Sun Shengqi took Sun Qiang back home and told him that Sun Qiang should stay in the provincial capital as much as possible recently, and he should take him to familiarize himself with the family business and partners.

As soon as they entered the house, Sun Jian knelt in front of Sun Shengqi and cried, "Dad, I was really wrong. Can you give me another chance?"

He and Wu Xiuyun also realized that Sun Shengqi was going to use Sun Qiang now, and they were also afraid that Sun Shengqi would leave them nothing, so they were really scared now and wanted Sun Shengqi to give them another chance to compete fairly.

Of course, Sun Jian was trained by Wu Xiuyun, and he was best at kneeling and begging.

Sun Shengqi felt uncomfortable looking at Sun Jian. He said to Sun Jian, "Can you please stop imitating your mother's ways? Can you be a man? Can you be more courageous and do business with your own ability like your brother?"

Sun Jian stood up and looked at Sun Shengqi with a wronged look on his face: "Dad, I was wrong before. Can you give me a chance to compete fairly with my brother?"

Sun Shengqi looked at Sun Jian and asked, "What is fairness? Didn't I give you enough opportunities before? How did you do it? If I let you interfere in the family business again, I'm afraid that all the Sun family's wealth will be passed on to the Wu family."

Wu Xiuyun also said anxiously: "I have already suffered losses, I will not make such a mistake again, Shengqi, you can't not give us any chances at all."

Sun Shengqi sighed and said, "I know what's going on. Stop talking. If you really want to change, then take back all the property you gave to the Wu family. That's enough to start a business. You have to know that the startup capital I gave Xiaoqiang was not even half of this."

After saying that, he thought for a moment and then said, "By the way, if Xiaojian really does business down to earth, then Xiaoqiang and I will help him."

Sun Jian looked at Sun Shengqi with complete disapproval: "Dad, do you really think Sun Qiang will help me? He hates me to death. If I beg him, he will definitely want to kill me."

Sun Shengqi sighed: "Perhaps you have done more shameful things than I thought. Forget it, I won't say anymore. I just hope you can be content and at peace."

Sun Jian looked at Wu Xiuyun: "Mom, are you willing?"

When Wu Xiuyun wanted to speak, Sun Shengqi spoke before her: "My biggest mistake was to hand the house over to you, otherwise Xiaojian would not have become like this. Don't talk anymore. Now I see that you have a headache. You can take care of yourself." After that, he took Sun Qiang to the study.

Wu Xiuyun knew that the situation was hopeless, but she was powerless to do anything. She took Sun Jian back to her parents' home because she also wanted to know how much of the money and property she had given to her parents' home over the years could be recovered.

But the reality is cruel. After her parents learned about Sun Shengqi's will, they became extremely cold towards Wu Xiuyun.

Wu Xiuyun and Sun Jian finally realized their own stupidity and that the people they trusted were jackals, tigers and leopards, but it was too late.

Sun Shengqi is not unreasonable. He also admits that he has problems in disciplining his children, otherwise Sun Jian would not have become like this. Therefore, he also left some shares for Sun Jian with his lawyer as a backup. If Sun Jian really has nothing one day, at least he will have a place to live. However, it is impossible to let Wu Xiuyun know this. Wu Xiuyun, this spendthrift woman, is no longer considered one of Sun Shengqi's own.
