Chapter 399 It’s All My Mom’s Fault

After taking the photos back, Lin Xiangnan bought a few more newspapers before returning to the hotel. "I'm done with my work. I'll stay in the hotel and sleep in the afternoon. Sister Liu, you can go do your thing."

"It's okay, I'm going to sleep too." Sister Liu was not in a hurry to buy things.

Sister Liu was also present at the academic seminar two days ago. She saw with her own eyes that Lin Xiangnan was appreciated by several industry leaders. Not only did some people take the initiative to recommend her to study abroad, but some also wanted to recruit her.

In the past two years, many young talents have gone abroad. Sister Liu is afraid that if she is not careful, Lin Xiangnan will be seduced away by someone else.

Sister Liu was just an accompanying staff member and had no surveillance mission. She just spontaneously wanted to keep more talents in the country.

Lin Xiangnan had no idea of ​​what was going on in her mind. Apart from sleeping in the afternoon, he would stay in the hotel eating fried chicken, reading gossip tabloids, and laughing out loud.

Sister Liu, who lives in the same room, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Don't you read books? Don't you study other people's data? You just finished communicating with everyone, you must have a lot of ideas."

In her impression, scientists all have serious faces, determined eyes, and they study hard under a desk lamp.

It's completely different from Lin Xiangnan.

"I need to study it. But there are too many things to study, so there's no rush. I can't finish it anyway, so I'll do it when I get back to work."

Lin Xiangnan turned his eyes away from the gossip tabloids and said to Sister Liu enthusiastically, "Eat fried chicken, why not? I bought so much, I can't finish it by myself."

It was hard to refuse such a kind invitation. While eating, Sister Liu asked Lin Xiangnan, "What are your plans for tomorrow, Sunday?"

"Of course I go shopping on the weekends."

Lin Xiangnan also had a task to help evaluate imported equipment, but the engineers of the other company were on holiday on Sunday, so the work had to be postponed to the working day.

Lin Xiangnan doesn't envy anything else, she just envies the extra-long vacation abroad.

Before the collapse of Big Brother Socialism, there were ideological competitors, and even capitalism seemed particularly humane.

"I hope that domestic units can also implement two-day weekends off soon, two-day weekends off and two-day weekends off..." Lin Xiangnan clasped his hands together and prayed silently.

Sister Liu couldn't bear to look at her like this. The more she looked at her, the less she looked like a serious genius researcher. Instead, she looked like the primary school student in her own family who had not yet grown up and was looking forward to the holidays every day.

It’s fun when playing, but when it’s time to work, Lin Xiangnan is also very serious. She follows her leader to inspect the workshop and evaluate second-hand production equipment, and she does not miss any details that need to be paid attention to.

"This equipment has some problems to begin with. We have to hire people from their company for after-sales services such as subsequent repairs. Judging from the speed at which this part wears out, the equipment is not expensive, but the subsequent maintenance costs are high. It's quite a rip-off."

The leader took Lin Xiangnan's suggestion seriously and said, "We will have a good talk with the people in this company about the issue you mentioned."

Lin Xiangnan nodded and said nothing more. Now, if you want to seek investment in China or production lines abroad, even provincial leaders will be treated like grandchildren when they meet big investors, not to mention others.

Lin Xiangnan did not have the financial resources to introduce a complete production line for a large domestic company, so after finishing his work, he went straight to the scrap recycling company.

Although some equipment is scrapped, you can buy a few more sets and make a usable one by making do with them.

Lin Xiangxi's business in her hometown was booming. She made back her investment of 4,000 yuan in just half a month. At the end of the month, Lin Xiangxi directly transferred 8,000 yuan to her.

In this era, not to mention internal competition and an overabundance of talent, most tracks are deserted, especially those with high initial investment.

As long as you dare to do it, you can make money.

After making money, Lin Xiangxi wanted to expand and strengthen the company, purchase more equipment, and hire more people. However, Lin Xiangnan vetoed his plan and wrote a letter back to warn him.

"You can't hire more than five people. If you hire too many, you'll be easily defined as a capitalist. The situation isn't stable yet, so let's wait and see for a while before making any decisions."

Lin Xiangnan and his colleagues are observing the situation, and the government is also observing secretly. Reform and opening up is the national policy, but they themselves are not familiar with the scale, and they are crossing the river by feeling the stones. If the situation is not right, they will make timely adjustments.

Individual businesses are now allowed, as is free trade in rural areas, but the crime of speculation has not disappeared.

This thing is like a rope around the necks of all the small bosses, and one end of the rope is in the hands of the government father. He first loosens the rope to let everyone develop freely. If he finds that freedom has gone too far, he tightens the rope and punishes some people. If people are scared out of their wits and dare not move, he loosens the rope again...

For fear of being troubled, Lin Xiangnan has been running small businesses during this period.

Lin Xiangxi was not greedy. Lin Xiangnan told him not to expand for the time being, and he really did not expand.

After all, Lin Xiangnan is also at the foot of the emperor, and Gu Zhenjun is still working in the procuratorate. If there is any movement, Lin Xiangnan is more sensitive than him.

Since the small workshop could not expand its staff, Lin Xiangnan could only find a way to upgrade the equipment and bring back some automated machine tools to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

Maybe Lin Xiangnan went to a high-end scrap recycling station, and the general manager of the company also asked for a very high price.

"Twenty thousand dollars, including shipping, to get it to the port for you."

"Twenty thousand dollars?" Lin Xiangnan was so angry that he laughed, "Are you kidding? What I bought was junk! Junk!"

"Yes. It is scrap, but some of its parts are on the embargo list. Even if we sell it to you as scrap, our company will still bear the risk."

This is quite true, and it is not so easy to find loopholes.

Lin Xiangnan gave him a displeased look and said, "Five thousand dollars. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, forget it."

"No. At least ten thousand." Afraid that Lin Xiangnan really wouldn't buy it, the other party revealed the lowest price.

"That's fine."

Lin Xiangnan reluctantly agreed.

This price was a small pitfall for her, but who told her that she was doing private work? According to her information network, there was another patriotic entrepreneur in this area who, under the guise of selling scraps, got a lot of good things for domestic units.

Lin Xiangnan had seen this person before, but he didn't dare to buy scrap from him, for fear that it would be noted in his notebook and he would be the focus of attention of his domestic leaders.

She is spending little money and saving a lot of trouble.

Ten thousand dollars is not a lot for her. It's just that she usually spends one or two dollars at home and never has the opportunity to spend a lot of money. Suddenly she has to spend such a large sum of money, and she is not yet used to it.

After paying the deposit, Lin Xiangnan muttered quietly, "It's all my mom's fault. She made me stingy."

Hu Meili, who was far away in her hometown, couldn't help but sneeze violently. She rubbed her nose and said in disgust, "Who is nagging me?"

"It must be mom! She misses you." Xiaobao said obediently.

"Hmph~" Hu Meili sneered. Doesn't she understand Lin Xiangnan?

Hu Meili said confidently: "It's definitely not your mother. She is busy spending money on shopping abroad, so she has no time to think about me."

"It must be a gift for grandma." Xiaobao's voice was sweet.

"Hey, grandma's little sweet grandson~"
