Chapter 142 Buying a Factory
Xu Youyou looked at the golden pointer of the system, which was pointing straight at the factory sign hanging by the door.
After following the system to pick up bargains so many times, she immediately understood what the system meant. Of course, what she wanted to pick up was not this brand, but she had to buy this factory.
Xu Youyou gave Xu Fang a look.
Xu Fang walked forward and knocked on the factory door.
"Come on, come on."
Not long after, a security guard came to open the door. The man looked to be in his early fifties, wearing a coat that was neither new nor old. His old face was tightly wrinkled, and when you got close to him, you could smell the strong smell of cigarettes on him.
"You all look so well dressed, you don't look like you're here to work, are you here to buy an electric bike? Have you contacted the factory in advance?"
Xu Fang skillfully stuffed a pack of cigarettes into the bag and handed it over. The security guard and the driver were both well-informed people. If one wanted to find out the specific situation, finding them was the fastest way.
After the security guard took the cigarette, his expression visibly softened and he said, "Just ask whatever you want to know. I'll tell you everything I can."
Xu Youyou asked casually: "If I want to buy a batch of electric vehicles, who should I talk to?"
The security guard took the cigarette and said in a more honest tone: "Little girl, it's not that our factory doesn't want to sell it to you. It's just that there is something wrong with the goods in the factory. If we sell it to you now, you have to return it later. So don't buy it."
Xu Youyou was stunned. She didn't expect that this was an electric car factory that had encountered difficulties.
"What's wrong with the car? Can't it run at all?" Xu Youyou asked.
The security guard said, "The country issued a new regulation this month, limiting the speed of two-wheeled electric vehicles to 25 mph. Our factory received the news late, and just produced a large number of electric vehicles that exceeded the speed limit. Now we can't sell them at all."
Xu Youyou didn't expect the other party to be in this situation, and asked: "Can't you add a speed limiter?"
The security guard obviously understood the factory's predicament. He shook his head and said, "There were some problems with the design of the electric vehicle at that time. The speed limiter cannot be added now. Several designers in the factory are at a loss and don't know how to solve it."
"How much inventory does your factory have?" Xu Youyou asked.
"Twenty thousand."
Xu Youyou raised an eyebrow in surprise: "So many?"
This number is not just an ordinary inventory pressure. According to her quick glance outside, 20,000 in inventory should be close to the limit of this factory.
The security guard got angry when talking about this, and said, "The factory received a large order before, and designed it completely according to the other party's design drawings. Who knew that this incident would happen just after the production was completed? Now the other party doesn't want the goods anymore."
Xu Youyou said: "At least they gave me a deposit, which can help me recover some of my losses."
When the security guard heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "If there was a deposit, it would have been easier. There is a clause in the contract that clearly states that if the policy affects... then we have to refund unconditionally..."
Xu Youyou: ...
She suddenly felt that the factory needed a good lawyer to review the contract.
The security guard said with a sad face: "Our factory director was tricked. He kept urging us to hurry up, and the factory leaders didn't notice anything wrong. When the new regulations came out, more than half of the order had been completed."
"They sued to get the deposit back. We still have a lot of materials in our warehouse and can only produce this type of electric vehicle. The workers haven't been paid for two months and are about to rebel," said the security guard.
Xu Youyou could imagine how anxious the people in the factory were. After she inquired about the personalities of the factory leaders, she said, "Take me to meet your factory leaders."
The security guard looked at Xu Youyou in surprise, then looked at the bodyguards behind her and the two cars that were obviously worth a lot of money: "Little girl, do you want to invest in our factory?"
Xu Youyou shook her head and said, "If the price is right, I will buy this factory."
The security guard immediately asked, "Do you really want to buy the factory? Will you pay our wages in the future? Will you pay us the wages we owe?"
Xu Youyou nodded: "That's natural."
"Will you buy our inventory as well?" the old man asked.
Xu Youyou nodded again.
"It's estimated to be tens of millions in total..." the old man said cautiously.
Xu Youyou raised an eyebrow: "So cheap? Not even as expensive as my car."
The security guard was shocked by the extravagant lifestyle of the rich, but the richer Xu Youyou was, the more relieved he felt: "Okay, okay, I'll call the factory leader now, and someone will come to see you in a while."
Before this batch of electric bikes had an accident, some people actually said they wanted to buy the factory. But after the accident, few people were willing to take over the batch of problematic bikes. Most of them only wanted to buy the factory and did not want to be responsible for the inventory and workers.
Xu Youyou was the first person to say she wanted them all.
The effect of the security guard's phone call was immediate. Xu Youyou waited in the message room for less than five minutes before she saw a man rushing over on an electric scooter.
She asked the guard beside her: "Is this car produced in your factory?"
The security guard nodded and said, "Miss Xu, don't be fooled by the small size of this car. It runs very fast and makes little noise when running. Once it is launched on the market, it will definitely sell well."
Xu Youyou looked at the small and cute car, which seemed to be made of solid materials. She couldn't help but feel regretful that it couldn't be put on the market.
The factory manager spoke in a loud voice, glanced at the guard, and immediately asked, "Lao Liu, is the big boss really here?"
The security guard immediately introduced: "Miss Xu, this is our Director Chen."
Director Chen grumbled to himself that Xu Youyou looked too young, but when he saw four bodyguards wearing the same clothes and Xu Fang accompanying them, he still tried to smile: "Ms. Xu, thank you for coming. Let's talk about something in detail. Lao Liu, open the door quickly and let Miss Xu's car drive in!"
Of course, the transaction could not be discussed in the message room. The security guard pressed a button, and the door slowly opened. Xu Youyou got in the car and followed them to a three-story office building.
"Ms. Xu, please come this way. Be careful on the steps." The factory director looked particularly humble as he nodded and bowed.
Xu Youyou went up to the third floor accompanied by him.
After many bosses become rich, they will spend a lot of effort to decorate their offices and make them extremely luxurious.
Director Chen's office appears to be very simple, with a set of desks and chairs, a set of sofas and coffee tables, and a curtain separating the two, revealing half of a single bed.
Director Chen personally made tea for Xu Youyou.
"Ms. Xu, I don't know where you are from?" Director Chen tried to get closer to her.
But just as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man rushed in from outside the door.
"Director, I really have no other choice. My daughter is sick and needs money urgently... The factory hasn't paid me for two months... I need to see the money today!!"
