The people watching from the office all looked at Li Xiyue with amusement. How could a little girl say such arrogant things? Was this child still asleep?
Li Xiyue walked up to the director and said, "I really want to open a factory! I plan to open a labor protection and welfare factory to solve the employment problem for disabled people in our community."
If disabled people all had jobs and their own income, they wouldn't need to receive monthly subsidies from the local government, causing trouble for the country. Don't you agree?
The office director put gloves over his ears and almost doubted his hearing. This girl spoke logically and clearly; she didn't seem to be joking.
But... isn't this age a bit too young?
He said, "Young lady... do you want to open a factory to produce work safety products?"
Li Xiyue said, "Yes, I want to open a labor protection and welfare factory. Not only can it produce labor protection products, but it can also open a curtain factory and a bedspread factory."
Making curtains and bedspreads is simple; almost anyone with normal hands can do it.
The office manager said doubtfully, "That's true, but it still requires a lot of money. Which unit are you from?"
Li Xiyue said, "I'm not a company, I'm an individual! Aren't we now allowed to apply for individual business licenses to run factories?"
The government allows sole proprietorships to apply for business licenses. If I then apply for a business license for my factory, I can open a factory.
The office director said, "Does your family have the money to open a factory? Just buying sewing machines would cost a lot of money, and you'd also need to buy fabric. If you want to produce work safety products, you'd need to buy specialized machinery and equipment."
Li Xiyue said, "Yes, you may not know that my family is now in the business of making calendars. These calendars are for you and your uncles and aunts."
She took the calendar she was carrying out of her hand, placed it on the table, and opened it for everyone to see.
Someone immediately recognized the calendar.
The older woman in the office said, "I've seen this calendar before. Someone was selling it near the university gate a couple of days ago!"
I wanted to buy a copy, but it cost 8 yuan, and being a bit greedy, I didn't. I was thinking, "Won't the street distribute them before the New Year?!"
The office director glanced at the situation and said, "Well... I'm afraid there won't be any payouts this year. The neighborhood committee isn't having an easy time either..."
He was telling the truth. Although there were factories in their neighborhood, the welfare factory didn't make any money. They were lucky if they could lose less each month.
He needs to receive subsidies from the district every month, but the district isn't wealthy either.
Li Xiyue said, "As long as my factory can open, it will solve the employment problem for all disabled people and women, and the burden on the neighborhood will be reduced. Don't you think so?"
The office manager said, "That's true... but where do you own your factory?"
Li Xiyue finally heard the sentence she wanted to hear. She said, "Since it is a welfare factory, it should be located in a place as close as possible to everyone, preferably not far from any of their homes."
I've looked at a few places these past couple of days, but they're all deserted. I'll use the neighborhood committee's buildings; I'll pay rent, and the neighborhood committee will have extra income to buy welfare benefits for their staff!
In those days, all houses were factory buildings, and you just had to pay your work unit or the government a monthly housing fee.
The housing costs for employees are very low, almost negligible.
Although the property rights are currently owned by the public, in a few years, the property rights of the houses will be reformed. Those who want to buy private houses can pay some money to convert public factory buildings into private houses.
Li Xiyue was calculating that as long as she could occupy all these courtyards, when the public property was converted to private property, she could spend a sum of money and these courtyards would rightfully belong to her!
Upon hearing this, the office director couldn't hide the smile on his face. If that were the case, the rental income in the neighborhood could indeed increase.
He asked, "Which house do you want?"
He took out a map and showed it to Li Xiyue. The map was a detailed map of their large area of streets, with every house drawn clearly.
Li Xiyue pointed out the several courtyards she wanted to the office director.
The office director's eyes widened in surprise. "What? You want all these courtyards? The houses in these courtyards have all collapsed. If you want them, you'll have to rebuild them. Rebuilding will cost a lot of money!"
Li Xiyue said, "I want to build a factory. Even if it's a good building, I'll have to demolish it and rebuild it. So it's better to demolish these abandoned buildings so I won't feel bad."
Look at these courtyards. I run a labor protection products factory in one, a curtain factory in another, and a bed sheet and bed cover factory in yet another.
Women who are idle at home, as well as people with disabilities, can come to work here. The salary will definitely not be less than what you could earn working outside!
It seems that what Li Xiyue said makes a lot of sense.
The office director nodded slightly and said, "You're right. If we're going to build a factory, we'll have to demolish any existing buildings."
If you want to open a factory in these yards, that's no problem for me, as long as you can get the business license.
However, do you, a young woman, have that much start-up capital? And can you apply for approval for so many factories all at once?
Li Xiyue said with a smile, "I need your help, Uncle! If you could put in a good word for me at the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the neighborhood committee could issue me a certificate, wouldn't that make things much easier?"
The office director laughed out loud, "You young lady, don't underestimate yourself just because you're young. You're quite shrewd. You want our neighborhood committee to speak up for you, huh?"
Okay! That's fine! Anyway, it's all for the good of the people in our neighborhood!
I'm definitely going to help you with this. I'll go with you whenever you go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau!
"You need to come up with the initial capital first. How much money can you afford to set up a factory? Is it enough to buy machinery and equipment?"
Li Xiyue said, "My family made over 100,000 yuan this year from selling calendars. It shouldn't be difficult to open three or four factories with over 100,000 yuan, right?"
God knows that in this day and age, people with 10,000 yuan in savings are almost as rare as protected animals, let alone someone who can come up with hundreds of thousands of yuan at once!
The office director jumped up from his chair. "Tens of thousands? That's more than enough! It's enough to buy any kind of machinery and equipment!"
Okay, do you have time tomorrow? If you do, let's go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau, and I'll help you get a business license!
Li Xiyue said, "Okay! I'll go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau with you tomorrow!"
Mi Bao said in the space, "Wow! So you wanted to set up a factory, and you used that as an excuse to take over those courtyards? That's a good idea!"
Li Xiyue said, "Of course! Now that we've finished discussing business, let's go find Mu Cangnan!"
Once these factories are up and running, she'll be one step closer to becoming incredibly wealthy!
Mi Bao said, "You don't even know which hospital Mu Cangnan is in, how are you going to find him?"
