In his past life, Wang Laosi schemed and succeeded. However, unexpectedly, his fate took a dramatic turn in this life, and Shi Huihui became his woman. Therefore, he naturally felt it was his inescapable responsibility to protect and cherish her.
After careful consideration, Wang Hu decided that his first priority was to acquire the soy sauce factory. Only in this way could he completely prevent Shi Huihui from continuing to work for Wang Laosi, thus keeping her away from potential dangers and troubles.
So, the next morning, as soon as the sun began to shine on the earth, Wang Hu hurriedly led Shi Huihui toward the village chief's house. They remained silent the entire way, but their eyes met, revealing a tacit understanding and unwavering resolve.
Before long, they arrived at the village chief's house. As soon as the village chief saw Wang Hu, his face immediately lit up with a warm smile, and he hurried forward to greet him: "Oh my, little tiger, what brings you here today?" As he spoke, his gaze curiously fell on Shi Huihui standing behind Wang Hu, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
Wang Hu didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Grandpa, I've come to you this time because I have a favor to ask! I'm planning to take over that soy sauce factory, so I hope you can act as an intermediary and buy it from Wang Laosi."
Upon hearing this, the village chief was slightly taken aback at first, then burst into laughter, patting Wang Hu on the shoulder and saying, "Haha, I was thinking of finding an opportunity to persuade you to make some investments in our hometown, but I didn't expect you to bring it up yourself first! Okay, leave this to me, I'll definitely be your good middleman!"
There were no doubts about Shi Huihui coming with Wang Hu, assuming that Wang Hu had inquired about some things from Shi Huihui first!
Just then, the village chief made a phone call, and not long after, Wang Laosi rushed over. Upon arriving, he first bowed and scraped to the village chief in greeting, then his gaze shifted to Wang Hu. With a beaming smile, he said to Wang Hu, "Oh my, Hu Zi, it's been so long! Seeing how well you've done for yourself, it's truly enviable! My son is about your age, and he's still diligently studying in school, while you, on the other hand, have become a big boss!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Hu quickly replied with a smile, "Fourth Master, you flatter me! I was just lucky and messing around." After all, Wang Laosi and Wang Hu's grandfather were of the same generation, and the village chief was standing right next to them. Moreover, the two sides had not yet completely fallen out or broken off relations. Therefore, Wang Hu still showed the respect and politeness that was due to his feelings and reason.
Immediately afterward, everyone got down to business and discussed the transfer price of the factory. Wang Laosi's eyes darted around, and he steeled himself, demanding an exorbitant sum of 400,000 yuan from Wang Hu. For the wealthy and powerful Wang Hu, this amount was nothing, and he was already planning to readily agree.
Things often happen by chance. Just as Wang Hu was about to nod, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded.
It turned out that Wang Hu's mother, Feng Fenfen, had also received a call from the village chief. Wang Hu was planning to take over the soy sauce factory, so he rushed over in a flurry.
Upon hearing the price quoted by Wang Laosi, she flew into a rage and stepped forward without hesitation to retort, "Wang Laosi, aren't you blatantly taking advantage of my son's youth and naivety? Four hundred thousand? Why don't you keep dreaming! With four hundred thousand, I'd rather let my son build a new factory!"
Feng Fenfen's words came out like a machine gun, making Wang Laosi blush and feel extremely embarrassed. He coughed several times, choked by her words, but there was nothing he could do.
Because he knew all too well that Feng Fenfen was no pushover; this woman was known for her shrewishness and fierceness, and in the past, if she didn't like someone, she could verbally abuse them mercilessly. Faced with such a formidable character, even a seasoned veteran like Wang Laosi could only choose to swallow his anger at this moment.
Moreover, Wang Hu is now incredibly wealthy and powerful; who would dare to easily provoke such a figure? At this moment, Wang Laosi said with a beaming smile, "Building the country, name your price!"
Feng Fenfen, who was always good at bargaining, made an outrageous demand without any hesitation: "One hundred thousand yuan! Not a penny more!"
Upon hearing the price, Wang Laosi nearly jumped up from the ground in shock, his eyes wide as he exclaimed, "One hundred thousand yuan? Are you kidding me! How could this factory only be worth one hundred thousand yuan!"
However, Feng Fenfen completely ignored his reaction and stubbornly insisted on her offer, arguing, "In my eyes, it's only worth 100,000 yuan! It's just a house made of a pile of broken bricks with a thin sheet of iron on top. Besides, this land isn't yours, it belongs to someone else, and you still have to pay rent to them every year! And all that equipment inside, you've probably already sold it all off. When my son takes over, there'll be nothing left, and he'll have to buy everything from scratch!"
After hearing these words, Wang Laosi was so angry that he turned around and was about to leave, but after taking two steps, he stopped abruptly, like a deflated balloon.
After all, as Feng Fenfen said, the land beneath the factory did not belong to him, and he would have to spend a lot of money on rent every year! He was really unwilling to miss the opportunity just because he had finally found someone who was interested in taking over the business.
Wang Laosi gritted his teeth, suppressing his dissatisfaction, and turned to look at Wang Hu with pleading eyes, muttering pitifully, "Hu Zi, 100,000 yuan is really too little, absolutely not!"
