Chapter 149 Loan Sharks Dong Xinghua was anxious and tried to stop them: ...
Dong Xinghua was anxious and quickly intervened, "He Ye, this factory is too run-down and in a remote location." It's useless and won't appreciate in value. "Even if it's cheap, it's not worth buying."
Xu Heye shook her head and said jokingly, "Aunt, even though this is just a rice field now, maybe in a few years it will become the most prosperous area in Hucheng."
Dong Xinghua didn't say anything.
Xu Heye was indeed quite perceptive, but the land in Hudong was truly worthless. Over the years, countless people whose ancestors had lived in Hudong for generations had sold their ancestral homes and moved to Huxi to buy property.
The owner of this factory might have done the same thing, selling the dilapidated old factory in Hudong and setting up a new factory in Huxi, or buying a new house.
Xu Heye didn't force it. If she didn't have the memory of her past life, she wouldn't know that Hu Dong's development could be so rapid.
She smiled and said to Dong Xinghua, "Aunt, there's no rush to buy a factory. Let's go back to the factory and discuss it."
After discussing it, if her aunt and uncle were unwilling, she would buy it in her own name and make it her private property. In the future, this factory would be her retreat and confidence.
Dong Xinghua nodded quickly: "Okay, go back and discuss it with your uncle and Lu Jun."
Fifteen thousand, the factory can afford it.
But the factory does not belong to Xu Heye alone after all. Other people also have a share of the factory's money. If the 150,000 yuan is wasted, other people may not necessarily have opinions about Xu Heye.
Back at the factory, Xu Heye gathered all the shareholders of the factory together.
"He Ye, why are you so serious?" Dong Fuyun asked hoarsely. He had been seeing so many customers these past two days, and talking all day long had made his voice hoarse.
Lu Jun and Huang Wangcheng also looked at her.
"It's like this—my aunt and I went to look at factories today. We looked at two in total. The first one was close to us. The factory and the machines were of excellent quality. We could buy them and put them into use right away."
The asking price was 468,000 yuan. It wasn't cheap, but it wasn't exorbitant either. My aunt and I both thought it was a good deal. But—" Xu Heye briefly recounted what happened during their factory visit. "We're worried it might be a hidden danger. If we buy it without knowing anything, it could backfire."
"So before we buy, we have to investigate what exactly caused Mr. He and his wife, Ms. Li, to sell the factory. If we can solve the problem, we will buy the factory. If we can't solve it, we will wait and see if there are other suitable factories for sale or rent."
After Xu Heye finished speaking, Dong Xinghua looked at Dong Fuyun and said, "Youngest, you know a lot of people. Find someone to help you find out the situation."
Dong Fuyun nodded: "Okay, leave this matter to me."
"What about the second thing?"
Xu Heye: "The second thing is still related to the factory. The second factory is in Hudong. It's larger than the previous one, but it's a bit dilapidated and needs to be demolished and rebuilt before it can be put into use."
"But the factory owner offered a low price of 150,000, and I think we can bargain down to 100,000 without any problem."
Dong Fuyun: "Do you want to buy it?"
"Yes." Xu Heye nodded.
"Why?" Lü Jun spoke. "Not only is the location over there remote, but the factory is also dilapidated. You also said it needs to be demolished and rebuilt before it can be used. The cost of buying the factory, plus the cost of demolishing and rebuilding, is not necessarily much cheaper than buying a properly used factory building."
Xu Heye said, "When I bought the Hudong factory, I wasn't attracted by the factory itself, but by the land that was included in the ownership of the factory."
"Aunt and uncle, Uncle Lu and Uncle Huang, in April this year, the top leaders announced a policy to develop Hudong. Although it's still very desolate and primitive, I believe it won't be long before Hudong becomes even more prosperous than Huxi. Do you believe it?"
"More prosperous than Huxi?" Everyone except Xu Heye laughed.
"You don't believe it?"
Dong Fuyun shook his head, having his own thoughts: "He Ye, perhaps the country is starting to pay attention to Hudong now, but you have to know that the development of every place takes time. Do you know how many years it took us in Huxi to develop to what it is now?"
"Almost a hundred and fifty years!"
"It will take a long time for Hudong to develop!"
"With this 150,000 yuan, we can buy a factory in Huxi. It won't take long for it to increase in value to 50,000 or 100,000 yuan. When we need money, we can quickly sell it and cash it in.
But what about Hudong? The factory building, once bought, will just sit there, and it's hard to find a suitable buyer. Otherwise, the factory building wouldn't have remained unsold even after the roof was broken.
He was now studying project management, no longer blindly following Xu Heye's instructions. Dong Fuyun considered buying Hudong's dilapidated factory a high-risk investment with uncertain returns.
"I understand your concerns." Xu Heye was actually very happy that her uncle had his own ideas. After all, if she didn't have her memories of her past life, she wouldn't have believed that Hudong could develop so quickly. In just a few decades, it had surpassed Huxi's hundreds of years of operation.
Hu Dong's takeoff happened to be at the right time.
With its advantageous geographical location, development opportunities brought about by joining the WTO, and the support and assistance of the country, Hudong's development can be said to have taken advantage of all the advantages, namely, the right time, the right place, and the right people.
Xu Heye knew that in just ten years, that piece of land would return her a million-fold. A factory that could be bought for 150,000 yuan now might not be achievable even for 100 million yuan in the future.
Xu Heye then looked at Lu Jun and Huang Wangcheng: "Uncle Lu, Uncle Huang, what do you two think?"
Lu Jun supported her as always, while Huang Wangcheng voted against it.
He had the same idea as Dong Fuyun. The factory was making money, and what they urgently needed now was to replace it with a factory that could be put into use directly, recruit more workers, and expand production.
As long as he managed the factory well, he could still make money. Fifteen thousand was not a small sum, so he didn't want to lose money.
Three to two, the minority obeys the majority.
Xu Heye nodded. "I understand." She had expected this, so she wasn't surprised. Just like she'd thought before, if the factory didn't buy it, she'd go buy it herself.
She had to seize this wave of wealth. Fortunately, she turned 16 in July this year and had full civil capacity, able to purchase a house independently and sign a contract.
Xu Heye found Xiao Wu and asked her to help contact the factory owner.
Xiao Wu helped negotiate the price, and the deal was finally concluded at 120,000 yuan. Before signing the transfer agreement, Xu Heye even went to a law firm to find a commercial lawyer to help with the contract.
After the transfer of ownership, Xu Heye gave Xiao Wu the agency fee of 360 yuan and also gave her a red envelope of 100 yuan.
"Sister Xiao Wu, I hope you can keep this a secret."
Xiao Wu took the agency fee and the red envelope and smiled happily: "Don't worry, boss, I promise I won't say a word."
After buying the factory, Xu Heye's wallet was completely empty.
In the past year since the factory opened, the company has distributed dividends twice, and Xu Heye has received a total of 500,000 yuan in dividends.
I spent 300,000 yuan to buy a house, tens of thousands of yuan on renovation, and now I have spent another 120,000 yuan to buy a factory. Adding other miscellaneous expenses, there is only more than 20,000 yuan left in the passbook.
After buying furniture with this money by the end of the year, there probably won't be much left.
Fortunately, the factory has been making money, but now we have to buy a new factory building, which will cost a lot of money, and I don’t think there will be any dividends at the end of the year.
If she wants to make money, she has to think of new ways.
On the other hand, Dong Fuyun also asked his friends to investigate the affairs of the He family garment factory.
Two days later, when Xu Heye's old factory property rights were obtained, Dong Fuyun also received news from his friends.
The reason why the couple wanted to sell the factory was because Boss He was gambling.
"Gambling?" Xu Heye widened his eyes.
Dong Fuyun nodded: "Not only gambling, but also borrowing usury."
"He gambled away our house and savings. He even mortgaged the factory to loan sharks. Luckily, you didn't rush to pay and transfer ownership. Otherwise, even if you bought the factory, we wouldn't be able to move in."
Mr. and Mrs. He had absconded with the proceeds from the factory sale. Since the loan sharks couldn't recoup their capital, they were sure to pursue the factory. Even if they had bought the factory and paid for it and transferred ownership, they still had a mortgage agreement, and it was unclear how long the two parties would be locked up.
Besides, what good people can there be among those who engage in usury?
If you get involved with people like this, you don't know how much trouble you will get into. They are honest businessmen who just want to run the factory and make money, and don't want to get involved in those illegal and disorderly things.
