Chapter 211 Mutual Compliments



These advantages are the biggest factors that enabled them to overcome all competition, defeat all opponents, and ultimately become the best and create their own success.

There is no doubt that Zhang Wenyuan also possesses this potential.

Wang Tianxiao smiled slightly, "Okay, I trust you, and you trust me. That's the basis of our cooperation. As for business, I don't want to go in the same direction as you. It's not that the direction I recommend to you isn't profitable; on the contrary, the path I suggest you take will be more profitable."

"However, I come from a farming background and have always had a natural affection for the land, so my future development will always be based on the land, that is, mainly on developing agriculture."

I previously analyzed the future potential of two economic directions. The path I suggested to you will offer nearly thirty years of benefits, while my industry has neither a peak nor a significant trough; each has its advantages and disadvantages.

“I understand that you are a person with ideals. I saw this in you a long time ago, which is probably why I have always enjoyed communicating with you and am willing to trust you.”

"Well, now that we've covered the premises, let's get down to business."

Wang Tianxiao put aside his emotional state and started talking about business.

"Mr. Zhang, it's like this, my mother-in-law's family is planning to build a sheep pen recently. It's not very big, just enough to raise a hundred or so sheep..."

"A hundred or eighty sheep? What's the point of raising so many sheep?"

“That’s not the point,” Wang Tianxiao glared at him irritably, and continued, “Since we’re building a sheepfold, we need red bricks, and guess what? Just seventy or eighty thousand bricks, and our brickyard couldn’t produce enough for several days…”

"I understand. You mean I should take over that brick and tile factory, just like taking over a prefabrication plant?"

Wow, you can even apply what you've learned to other situations!

Wang Tianxiao nodded: "Yes, taking over this brick and tile factory is the first step, or rather, part of it. My idea is to first resolve the issues with this brick and tile factory, and then make adjustments to the personnel, equipment, and facilities to revitalize the factory in advance."

"That's easy. With the experience from the prefabrication plant, we can simply replicate that experience. After all, it's the same process of opening a factory and managing people; the only difference is the products produced."

“The two factories are still different,” Wang Tianxiao warned Zhang Wenyuan. “When you took over the precast concrete plant, it was already a privately owned factory, so it was relatively easy to renovate. But the brick and tile factory is still state-owned, and it will take some effort to take it over from the state.”

"I see..."

"Well, also, the people in private factories are different from those in public factories. People in private factories are just in it for the money, because if the factory doesn't make money, they don't get any income, right? But it's different in public factories. Whether the factory is profitable or not, they still get income. Over time, they lose all sense of responsibility and slowly forget their skills."

So when we bought the bricks, those people couldn't produce any in half a day, which shows that the factory was completely rotten. After you take over, the original staff either need to be reassigned or laid off directly, leaving only those who were willing to work. This also requires a period of adjustment. Being too hasty could cause problems; being too slow will affect the next steps.

Zhang Wenyuan suddenly realized and nodded: "That makes sense. You've thought of everything. Okay, I'll have someone follow this. But speaking of which, I have a question for you."

"you say."

"A brick and tile factory, in the end, has limited profits, right? After all, once these bricks and tiles are used, they last a long time, unlike tofu, which people might need to eat a variety of foods every day. So where is our market, and where do our profits come from?"

"Well..."

Wang Tianxiao smiled mysteriously, "Maintaining regular orders should ensure we don't lose money, but a specific turning point might occur in the second half of the year. As for what that turning point might be, can I keep that a secret for now, because I need to continue observing?"

"this……"

If Zhang Wenyuan didn't know Wang Tianxiao well, he would have really thought Wang Tianxiao was joking.

We agreed to be best friends for life.

We were both honest with each other, so how come you suddenly have a little secret and shut me out of your heart?

"Haha, you don't believe me?"

Wang Tianxiao asked with a smile.

Seeing Wang Tianxiao's confident demeanor, Zhang Wenyuan hesitated for a moment before finally nodding and saying, "I believe you, okay?"

"Okay, that's good. Besides, if we start negotiating now, it will probably take you several months to get the factory completely stable. There's no rush."

Having said all that, Zhang Wenyuan couldn't say anything more.

Then I'll just accept it.

"Okay, you said acquiring the brick factory was the first step, so what's the second step? What else do you want to develop?"

"Let me think about it carefully and then I'll tell you in detail. I haven't fully figured it out yet. There's no rush. Let's take it one step at a time."

Seeing Zhang Wenyuan's bewildered expression, Wang Tianxiao realized that he hadn't finished explaining everything at once, which made Zhang Wenyuan feel a little uncomfortable.
