Yun Mo briefly talked about the closure of the match factory and the vacancy of the factory building.

"We will go check out a place tomorrow and rent it if it's suitable. No matter what, we must open the bamboo weaving factory before the New Year."

"good."

After returning to the guesthouse, Yun Mo briefly explained the matter of the match factory to the Huang family and Chen Bin, and decided to go out at 8 o'clock the next day.

Before going to the match factory, she planned to try her luck nearby to see if she could find other suitable factory sites.

Yun Mo arrived at the match factory about 10 minutes earlier than the agreed time.

Lotus Street is an industrial area, surrounded by various factories and enterprises.

Because of the suspension of production, the door of the match factory was locked with a thick iron chain, but the iron fence door did not obstruct the view.

From the outside, the factory building of the match factory is a bit old, but it is quite large. It has production workshops, factory buildings, office buildings, and canteens. There is also a large open space in the middle, which can park several trucks at the same time.

Everyone was watching intently when a car horn sounded behind them.

The Zhao family and the bank people came.

In addition to Zhao Yazhi and Zuo Xiaotang, the Zhao family also had a tall and thin young man, Zuo Xiaotang's older brother, named Zuo Yi.

After the bank staff opened the door, Zhao Yazhi and Zuo Xiaotang immediately pulled Yun Mo inside.

"Momo, this place is much better than the school land. It doesn't even need repairs. We can just clean it up and use it."

After walking around, Huang Zhiqiu said to Yun Mo happily.

Huang Kailin and Chen Bin kept nodding their heads, obviously very satisfied with the factory.

Yun Mo also thought this place was nice, so she turned around and asked the person in charge of the bank how much the rent was.

The bank staff explained: "We were originally planning to sell this factory, but there is no buyer yet, so we are renting it out temporarily. The rent is 12,000 yuan for one year. If there is no buyer after one year, you can continue to rent it."

To put it bluntly, this place was temporarily lent to the Huang family for transitional use out of respect for the Zhao family.

Even the rent was probably discounted.

Given the location and size of the factory, it would be easy to rent it for fifteen or sixty thousand a year.

“We decided to rent this place.”

Seeing Yun Mo so straightforward, the people in the bank also breathed a sigh of relief.

Before coming, the leader specifically instructed that if the Huang family bargained, the lowest price could not be lower than ten thousand.

When preparing to sign the contract, Yun Mo casually asked the other party, "How much does your bank plan to sell this factory for?"

"It should be at least 300,000 yuan. The match factory owes our bank a total of more than 360,000 yuan in loans."

Hearing this, a thought suddenly flashed through Yun Mo's mind, "If the match factory continues to operate, how much money will they need to repay every year?"

"Our bank previously worked out a 10-year repayment plan for the match factory, which means they have to pay 38,000 yuan a year, including interest."

Yun Mo was not quite sure about the loan interest rates in this era, but 360,000 yuan, paid in installments over 10 years, was less than 2,000 yuan in interest per year, which was really low.

Looking at the empty factory in front of her, a bold idea slowly came to Yun Mo's mind.

"Director Xu, please wait for me for a moment. I have something to discuss with my family."

"Okay, you guys do as you please, I'll write the contract first."

As expected, Huang Zhiqiu and his daughter both expressed their firm opposition.

"Momo, don't think that everything will go as planned. Let's just rent this place and run the bamboo weaving factory. You just heard Director Xu say that this factory building is going to be sold for 300,000 yuan. Even if we sell our entire family, we still can't come up with that much money."

Yun Mo also knew that her thoughts were impulsive, but once the idea came into her mind, it was difficult to extinguish it.

In the long run, buying the match factory will definitely be beneficial.

This place is close to the city and will be developed by the government sooner or later. Whether it is selling land or building a factory, it will definitely make huge profits.

Although she couldn't come up with 300,000 yuan at one time, she could take over the match factory's debts and only had to pay the bank 38,000 yuan every year. Ten years later, the match factory would completely belong to them.

After hearing Yun Mo's plan, the Huang family looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Mom, Grandpa, think about it, if we rent a factory, it will cost more than 10,000 yuan a year. If prices go up in two years, the rent will also go up.

Once the rent is paid, the land belongs to someone else, but if we take it over and pay double the rent every year, the land will belong to us in ten years.

Believe me, in less than ten years, at most three years, the value of this land will double."

Although Yun Mo's description was very beautiful and tempting, Huang Zhiqiu and Huang Kailin still refused to agree.

In the eyes of the father and daughter, setting up a bamboo weaving factory was already a very bold move. Taking over the match factory's debt of 360,000 yuan was something they could not even imagine!

Seeing the firm attitude of Huang's father and daughter, Yun Mo had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay, let's rent this land for twelve thousand as we agreed before."

Afterwards, Huang Zhiqiu signed a land lease contract with Director Xu on behalf of the bamboo weaving factory.

With the Zhao family as guarantor and the bank not charging a deposit, Yun Mo only had to pay 12,000 yuan in rent.

The successful rental of a new factory is undoubtedly a happy event worth celebrating.

Yun Mo invited everyone, including Director Xu, who was in charge of signing contracts at the bank, to a luxurious dinner at a nearby restaurant.

After dinner, Yun Mo and the Huang family bought brooms, dustpans, rags and other tools and went to the match factory to clean.

Zuo Yi had other things to do in the afternoon, so he drove away first. Zhao Yazhi and Zuo Xiaotang stayed to help Yun Mo pack up.

The match factory is very large, with the production workshop alone covering nearly a thousand square meters. The warehouse is slightly smaller, at about five or six hundred square meters. The office is a two-story brick building with four rooms on each floor.

The four rooms downstairs were the match factory's former production, purchasing, sales and logistics offices, while the four rooms upstairs were the offices of the factory director and other important leaders, as well as the finance office.

The tables, chairs and filing cabinets inside the office are still there, but the documents and the like have been cleared away. There are scraps of paper and documents scattered on the floor, making it look a bit messy.

Yun Mo was busy cleaning the newly rented factory. On the other side, Village Chief Lu finally succeeded in signing a land lease contract with Zhejiang businessmen.

In order to retain the big fat sheep Zhejiang businessmen, Township Chief Lu not only waived the rent for the first three years, but also removed the condition of road construction. The Zhejiang businessmen only needed to guarantee to provide 100 garment factory jobs for Wanchuan Township every year.

After seeing off the Zhejiang businessmen, Village Chief Lu happily called his brother-in-law to report the good news.

Upon learning that his brother-in-law had successfully negotiated a business cooperation agreement with Zhejiang businessmen, Wu Gang, the brother-in-law of Township Chief Lu, was particularly happy.

He had been trying to find a way to transfer his brother-in-law, Village Chief Lu, to the city so that he could assist him, and now he finally had the opportunity.

As long as he waits for the garment factory to be completed and put into production, and then he finds a way to lobby for it, it will certainly not be a problem to get a section-level position for Village Chief Lu, his brother-in-law, in the municipal government.
