Lin Yuan returned safely, and the whole family was relieved.
The next day was Sunday. The family of three drove there early in the morning to have breakfast with the Lin couple.
After that, I went to visit the Zhao family.
The elders were relieved to see that Lin Yuan had no problems other than being a little tanned.
An'an went to the store with her grandfather to learn how to sell clothes, while Zhao Huanhuan and Lin Yuan drove to the factory.
Liu Gong, who was patrolling near the gate with the security guards on duty, saw a military vehicle approaching and immediately knew that Lin Yuan had returned. He quickly opened the gate for her.
Lin Yuan was amazed by the grandeur of Zhao Huanhuan's factory gate when he saw it from outside. He couldn't help but praise her, "My wife is really something. That specialty store sells underwear from our factory!"
Before he arrived here in the morning, his impression of the factory was still that of the old, dilapidated place.
I never expected to see a factory like this this time.
"Well, but don't get too excited yet. My factory isn't profitable yet. We'll only start shipping around the New Year. I still have a loan of 200,000 yuan!" Zhao Huanhuan said quickly, feeling embarrassed, when she saw the admiring look in his eyes.
"How many years?" Lin Yuan asked.
"Three years? Don't worry, I can pay it back," Zhao Huanhuan said confidently.
She initially spent all her money on factory construction and equipment preparation.
Some of the old equipment she inherited from the original manufacturer was no longer working properly, so she needed to purchase new machines that were now being produced.
The money we earn now, besides paying workers' wages and buying raw materials, is barely enough to break even, or even have to be subsidized by the store.
She hopes to break even next year and make a profit the year after, which will be used to pay off the loan.
After parking the car, Lin Yuan stood in the factory yard and looked around. It was obvious that Huanhuan was the designer; the entire factory area was arranged neatly, and every usable space was utilized.
"Come on, I'll take you to the office first, and then I'll take you into the workshop. Go change into some work clothes first," Zhao Huanhuan said, leading him towards the office building.
The workers had already started their shifts, and the workshop was filled with the sounds of machines and conversations.
People were walking around in the factory area.
Two sales representatives happened to be coming out of the office building. When they saw Zhao Huanhuan, they came up to her and asked, "Factory Manager, are we going out today?"
"I'm not leaving today, I'll leave the day after tomorrow. Let me introduce you, this is my husband, Lin Yuan, he just got back yesterday."
"This is salesman Xiao Gao, and Xiao Jia," Zhao Huanhuan introduced to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan shook hands with them, and the two of them quickly smiled and shook hands with him, calling him Brother Lin.
Lin Yuan was wearing a military uniform today because she was going back to her unit to deliver a car.
Looking at the factory manager's husband, the two women suddenly felt that they weren't standing straight enough or walking like men, and unconsciously straightened their posture.
Zhao Huanhuan smiled, didn't expose them, and went upstairs while talking to Lin Yuan.
As Zhao Huanhuan went upstairs, she explained to him the situation and changes that had occurred over the past six months.
Last night after dinner, the couple tidied up together, washed up, and went to bed early.
She originally wanted to talk to him, but the man didn't give her a chance to speak at all. In the end, she was too tired to talk and fell asleep in his arms.
At this moment, Lin Yuan looked at the layout of the building while listening to her introduction. She was wearing a smart suit and looked very much like a female boss.
Lin Yuan secretly compared Huanhuan now with the Huanhuan he first met, and grinned. He felt a sense of accomplishment; his Huanhuan had grown up and matured under his care.
This capable Huanhuan, this dazzling female entrepreneur, is his wife, the Huanhuan he has seen in many different ways.
"Good morning, Factory Director. Oh, Lin Yuan, you're back?" Hu Zhan and his wife Wang Ling had just returned from the workshop. They saw Lin Yuan and Zhao Huanhuan walking up a flight of stairs ahead, talking for a while, and greeted them with smiles.
Lin Yuan quickly turned around and took a few steps down to stand on the same step as Hu Zhan. She smiled and shook hands with Hu Zhan and Wang Ling to greet them, "Uncle Hu, Aunt Wang, thank you so much for coming here to help Huanhuan. I was so busy that I only got back yesterday and couldn't help her. Luckily, you're here. Thank you so much."
On the way there, Zhao Huanhuan told him about how Hu Zhan and Aunt Wang had been hired by her to be deputy factory directors after they retired.
Zhao Huanhuan also said that she plans to give the couple a big red envelope at the end of the year, and that their salaries will increase next year, including seniority pay.
Lin Yuan said that this was a good idea. They had worked for so long before, and their work experience was their most valuable asset. It was their capital, and it was only right for their own factory to pay them high salaries.
Hu Zhan, Wang Ling, and Zhao Huanhuan talked about work for a while before returning to their offices.
Their deputy factory director's office was also located on the third floor, next to the accounting department.
They moved the gym to the second floor.
After Lin Yuan toured several workshops with Zhao Huanhuan and then visited the warehouse, he learned that the machine was specially customized. Lin Yuan's admiration for his wife grew even stronger, and he even personally drove the loading and unloading truck.
After touring the entire factory area, he drove back to his workplace to return the car.
Zhao Huanhuan was also thinking about whether she should buy a car herself. With the money she earned from her shop, she could easily afford a Xiali or a Fukang now.
As for the factory's money, it cannot be touched for the time being; it needs to be used to save wages for the workers.
She decided to go back and ask Lin Yuan. Since he hadn't been working for six months, he should be able to drive her around to do more marketing. Having her own car would be much more convenient.
