"It's not too late at all!"
Zhou Yongming smiled, put his arm around Gao Hongtao's shoulder, and gestured for him to sit down and eat.
“We’ve almost finalized our deal,” Sun Dingguo said with a smile. “I’ve decided to sell these five production lines to Mr. Jiang at the lowest price available for secondhand production lines on the market!”
Lowest price!
Upon hearing these four words, everyone present was taken aback.
After all, even if you're selling a used machine, as long as it hasn't been completely phased out of the market, you can still get a decent price.
Sun Dingguo did this not only out of respect for Zhou Yongming, but also because he also thought highly of Jiang Sheng.
Why are you all staring at me like that?
Sun Dingguo joked, "I'm not some evil capitalist. This young man is young but has a lot of ideas. Anyway, I don't lack money, so I won't lose anything."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Mr. Sun! I will definitely live up to your trust!"
"Just don't let yourself down."
Sun Dingguo patted Jiang Sheng on the shoulder and then pointed to the food and wine on the table.
"Old Zhou said you're only eighteen this year, can you drink a little?"
Jiang Sheng nodded, raised his wine glass, and personally toasted Sun Dingguo.
"Mr. Sun, this drink is for you today!"
"good!"
Sun Dingguo nodded and said with a smile, "You're only eighteen, so drink less. After lunch today, I'll take you to see the production line."
The group toasted and drank, and everyone enjoyed themselves immensely.
After lunch, the group left Xinghualou and drove to the factory.
On the way, everyone chatted and laughed, but Jiang Sheng noticed that Gao Hongtao's smile seemed increasingly forced, and he appeared somewhat absent-minded, glancing out the window from time to time.
He seemed lost in thought, and his eyes met Gao Hongtao's.
Gao Hongtao smiled at him in a friendly manner, and Jiang Sheng nodded slightly before looking away.
Upon arriving at Sun Dingguo's factory, the factory gate was wide open.
"Everyone goes to lunch, and to prevent any problems from happening in the factory, the doors are locked during lunch."
Sun Dingguo smiled and explained, then led everyone inside.
Inside the factory, there are five long assembly lines.
A production line is about 100 meters long. From the initial mixing and production of materials, to filling, and finally to packaging and labeling, the process is very rigorous and without the slightest flaw.
Jiang Sheng watched the orderly workers from the side, and felt a surge of excitement in his heart.
As expected of an imported product, it is indeed much better than domestic ones.
After looking through it from beginning to end, he noticed that one thing was missing.
That's a sealing machine.
They have packaging machines and the like, but the sealing is done manually.
It involves covering the bottle opening with a waterproof grease bag and then tightly tying it with linen grease rope.
In this way, a complete can of food is produced.
Jiang Sheng watched from the side, remaining silent.
Sun Dingguo didn't notice anything wrong with Jiang Sheng's face and said with a smile.
"These are five production lines in total, and they are all very well set up. We also emphasize original packaging. Although it is industrial production, we are very particular about the production of canned goods."
As Sun Dingguo spoke, he bent down slightly, took a freshly produced can of food in his hand, and placed it in front of Jiang Sheng.
He specifically pointed to the oil paper lid at the mouth of the can and explained it.
"This way, the freshness of the canned food can be preserved to the greatest extent. However, there is one drawback: if the oil rope becomes loose, the oil inside can easily be exposed."
Jiang Sheng could naturally see it.
However, most of the workers here are experienced and very skilled.
Oil leaks are almost nonexistent.
Jiang Sheng asked, "I remember that foreign assembly lines should include sealing machines."
"That's true."
Seeing Jiang Sheng's confusion, Sun Dingguo explained, "However, these five production lines were custom-made when they were ordered from abroad, so this link was not included."
"Actually, using a sealing machine is not difficult and can save a lot of manpower."
"But I still prefer this traditional approach."
Unexpectedly, Sun Dingguo had such a strong sense of perseverance.
The choice of what to use for sealing, or whether to use a sealing machine at all, is a personal one.
Jiang Sheng naturally wouldn't argue, but he was already starting to think about how to find a suitable sealing machine.
“Mr. Sun,” Jiang Sheng pointed to the production lines in front of him and asked, “Could you tell me the batch numbers and detailed models of these production lines?”
Upon hearing this, Sun Dingguo immediately understood Jiang Sheng's meaning.
"No problem, I'll have our repairman write down the model number and batch number for you right away."
Because the production line has been in operation for four or five years, the relevant batch numbers and models have worn off and are not very clear.
Therefore, the repair technicians who are usually responsible for maintenance know best.
