Wang Wei didn't say much, but Lu Fan still had some things to explain:
"As the saying goes, cats have their ways and mice have theirs. The workers in the factory will inevitably become a hidden danger left by the Wang family, but we are not entirely without a solution."
There are some things that Lu Fan may not do himself, but others may.
Sun Dehu used to be very influential in Nanshan City, thanks to the connections and influence of the Wang family.
After listening for a few moments, Wang Wei understood and said in shock, "That...that's hiring the Black Gang."
Lu Fan laughed heartily, and Zhang Fan in front of him also found it amusing: "What kind of criminal gangs are there in our country? They're just a bunch of petty thugs."
He has some influence among the younger workers at the soy sauce factory.
Wang Wei pondered, "If we can get them involved, does that mean we can control the workers' riot?"
Lu Fan nodded: "Sun Dehu has already found someone to stand up for him. As long as he says a word, no one will dare to cause trouble."
For the older employees, Lu Fan stayed to work; for the younger ones, those who could stay were allowed to stay, and those who couldn't were allowed to leave.
This allows them to acquire the core technical expertise of the soy sauce factory while also maintaining morale.
Having said that, Wang Wei felt nothing but admiration for Lu Fan: "I thought Mr. Lu's acquisition of the soy sauce factory was just a whim."
I didn't expect it to be after careful consideration.
Following a visionary boss is much better than working with those incompetent second-generation members of the Wang family who she followed before!
Lu Fan's many suggestions to Wang Wei were not unfounded; he had something planned for her:
“Sun Dehu has just taken over the construction group, and he has a mountain of work to do. It's not good for him to run back and forth between Jinghai City and Nanshan City. I'll leave the Nanshan matter to you.” Seeing Wang Wei nod, Lu Fan continued:
"This is, after all, the Wang family's stronghold. There are many things I can't do personally. What do you know about the person in charge of selling off the Wang family's assets to recoup their losses?"
As far as Lu Fan knew, the person in charge of this sale was Wang Mingtang, the third generation of the Wang family.
Wang, 45, is a member of the younger generation and possesses great skill and decisiveness; he currently holds a government position.
Wang Wei was recommended to Lu Fan by Sun Dehu. Although she was not optimistic about the prospects of acquiring the soy sauce factory, she still managed to find out some information through her own channels.
Hearing Lu Fan's question, one knew he would answer everything:
“Wang Mingtang is an outstanding individual, but he is not a direct descendant of the Wang family, so the more capable he is, the more he is ostracized.”
This situation is very similar to Wang Wei's.
The difference is that Wang Wei cannot be recognized as a member of the Wang family, while Wang Mingtang is a legitimate member of the Wang family.
Therefore, this kind of exclusion made Wang Mingtang feel no sense of belonging to the Wang family and he continued to work in the political arena.
Over the years, he has made a name for himself, and the Wang family has gradually come to recognize him. When it is inconvenient for them to handle some business matters, they will entrust them to Wang Mingtang.
As Lu Fan listened to Wang Wei's report, he analyzed Wang Mingtang's personality and way of handling things.
"Mr. Lu, would you like to meet my third uncle, uh, I mean Wang Mingtang?"
Wang Wei said, "Compared to the group of纨绔 (spoiled brats) in the Wang family, Wang Mingtang has little connection with the Wang family and doesn't feel much sense of belonging to them."
Lu Fan pondered for a moment: "How confident are you?"
He did not want an unplanned meeting to disrupt his plans for Nanshan City.
Before Lu Fan and Wang Wei had their conversation, Wang Wei probably wasn't very confident.
But now...
Wang Wei smiled and said, "My third uncle is only polite to those who are capable. Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I'll make the connection."
With Wang Wei's unwavering guarantee, what else could Lu Fan possibly worry about?
He waited patiently for Wang Wei's phone call to end.
"Third Uncle, I have some thoughts and suggestions about the sale that I'd like to discuss with you."
At first, the person on the other end thought Wang Wei had come for work.
After Wang Wei briefly explained, Wang Mingtang readily agreed, "Come on, there are no noisy flies here."
Wang Mingtang has always looked down on the bunch of good-for-nothings raised by the Wang family, but he has been quite accommodating to younger generations like Wang Wei who have real talent.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Wei said in a good mood, "It's a success, Mr. Lu. I'm at least 70-80% confident!"
Wang Wei is pragmatic; saying she's seven or eight out of ten is already quite confident.
Wang Mingtang assumed Wang Wei was facing difficulties after being fired, but he never expected her to come directly to him with Lu Fan.
He was taken aback at first, then realized: "Mr. Lu, you've come for the properties that the Wang family is selling off, haven't you?"
Lu Fan didn't try to hide anything and nodded: "I heard from Wang Wei that you're in charge of this matter now?"
Wang Mingtang glanced at Wang Wei, then at Lu Fan:
"I wonder, which place Mr. Lu has taken a fancy to?"
Seeing that his attitude was relatively humble and polite, he was quite different from the Wang family members that Lu Fan had met and fought with before.
Lu Fan couldn't help but ask curiously, "You don't seem to be very angry about my arrival?"
When asked this question, Wang Mingtang smiled wryly:
"Although the Wang family has brought this situation upon themselves, I don't believe that you, Mr. Lu, didn't play a part in it."
"In business, there's a buyer and a seller. I only care about how to sell, and I don't care about any past grudges or grievances."
