negotiation
Seeing that Song Xiaojuan didn't say anything, Zhao Guomin thought that she would just have to let it go tomorrow, so he didn't say anything else.
Song Xiaojuan was lying on the bed when she heard him open the door, but she didn't turn around.
This is what men are like. They talk a lot of nonsense, but once they are tired, their true colors are revealed. Ha!
During dinner that night, Song Xiaojuan's expression was quite normal. Zhao Guomin talked to her and she responded. Zhao Guomin thought Song Xiaojuan had figured it out, so he took the matter as settled.
He also picked up some food for Song Xiaojuan.
Li Cuifen looked at Song Xiaojuan who was eating with her head down. She wanted to say something, but then she looked at the fourth brother and shut up again.
When she was out of confinement, Song Xiaojuan felt that she was finally liberated and ready to start working.
Coincidentally, at this time, Li Fengjiang called her and told her that the factory project had been successful. A private brewery in the suburbs was planning to expand and move the factory to the provincial capital.
Song Xiaojuan took Xiao Dong, the only man in the company, and the two of them went to see the factory. The other factory manager was very enthusiastic and took Song Xiaojuan around the factory. At noon, the group went to a restaurant for lunch.
Song Xiaojuan really liked this factory, and their transfer procedures were also complete. Even as for the price, there was nothing to complain about, as it was within Song Xiaojuan's expectations.
The matter went well at the table, and Song Xiaojuan also asked Li Fengjiang to investigate behind the scenes, and there were indeed no hidden dangers.
Basically, the matter was settled, but who knew that when signing the contract, the other party suddenly put forward a condition, that is, Song Xiaojuan also had to take over all the old employees of the brewery.
Song Xiaojuan's first thought was to refuse. She was in the clothing business, and the employees of this brewery were in the beer production business, which was not the same industry. Moreover, most of these employees were men, and they were not young. Even if they were asked to learn how to make clothing in the future, they might not be able to do it.
Another point is that the brewery is moving to the provincial capital, so it should need employees. Why not take these old employees with you? It is a time-saving and labor-saving thing. Why not do it?
Song Xiaojuan felt that something was wrong and that there must be something else going on. She asked Xiaodong to secretly visit the old employees in the factory, as they must know something about it.
As for Li Fengjiang, she couldn't look for him anymore. Either Li Fengjiang hadn't investigated the matter behind it, or Li Fengjiang hadn't said something.
Song Xiaojuan prefers the former.
Those who were able to convert former state-owned factories into private ones all had some powerful family backgrounds. Song Xiaojuan knew that she couldn't find out anything on her own.
But there was one person who might be able to do it, and that person was Song Zhishan. Song Xiaojuan went straight to the county hospital without hesitation, found Song Zhishan, and got straight to the point.
Song Zhishan frowned: "You said you wanted to open a factory. Is it because your boyfriend knew that you had money and tricked you into doing it?" In Song Zhishan's opinion, this girl had never been to school and had no idea about doing business. When she gave birth in the hospital, she said she bought a house in the county town. He suspected that it was her boyfriend who instigated it, but he had not found the time to investigate it yet.
She had come to him today, so he took the opportunity to ask her. He felt sorry for the child and couldn't let her be deceived again: "Tell me the truth!"
Seeing Song Zhishan's expression, Song Xiaojuan knew that he was overthinking it. She suppressed the "unfairness" in her heart and focused on the big things first: "No, he has his own business, and I have my own business." She told him about her life, from selling fruits to opening a clothing store, picking out the more difficult ones.
Song Zhishan's expression changed from disbelief to shock and finally to relief.
Song Xiaojuan looked at his expression and couldn't describe the feeling in her heart. It seemed that she didn't hate him as much as she hated Xiao Hongjie, and love was even less so.
In her mind, the other party was just a connection that could be used. Song Xiaojuan felt that she was not cold-blooded, but just clear-headed.
"I'll ask you later about what to do with the child when you go out to work and leave him with the nanny."
Song Xiaojuan lowered her eyes: "Well, I'll be leaving first." She didn't want to appear too flattering, nor did she want to appear too aloof; she had to strike the right balance.
After leaving Song Zhishan, I returned to the company and Xiao Dong also came back. He had really gained something from his running around these days. He found out from an old employee that they had not received their salary for three months and everyone had wanted to organize themselves to go and demand their wages together.
As a result, the leader replied that the factory was going to be sold and their wages would be paid by the person who took over the factory.
After hearing this, Song Xiaojuan was both angry and amused. It seemed that she was being taken advantage of. She decided to endure it for now and see what news Song Zhishan could bring out.
After all, she really liked this factory, both in terms of location and price.
Song Zhishan was very quick and gave the news two days later. It turned out that the owner of the winery and some people went to Macau for fun and were set up.
He had lost everything and was in a hurry to sell the factory because he had no other choice. After Song Xiaojuan found out, she was not so anxious anymore.
Now it’s the other party who is anxious.
Sure enough, after a few days, the other party saw that Song Xiaojuan had not responded, so he took the initiative to call and ask.
Song Xiaojuan said on the phone that she was considering it, and the other party immediately arranged a dinner party and said that Li Fengjiang would also be there.
After hanging up the phone, Song Xiaojuan called Zhao Guomin and asked him to come back and keep her company.
We made an appointment to have dinner at a big restaurant in the county. This time the boss of the other party also came. He was a man in his thirties with a greasy hair and a big belly, and he had the typical style of a leader.
As soon as he came up, he shook hands with Song Xiaojuan: "Oh my, I didn't expect Ms. Song to be so young and such a beauty."
Song Xiaojuan took the opportunity to pull her hand away, and twitched her lips slightly. "Mr. Xu, you're too kind. You're a young and promising person. You're the first person in our county to open a winery in the provincial capital."
"I wonder where Mr. Xu built the factory in the provincial capital," Zhao Guomin said, and walked between Song Xiaojuan and Mr. Xu.
At the dinner table, Zhao Guomin and they were chatting and laughing, and no one mentioned this matter first. When the party was about to end, Mr. Xu brought it up.
Song Xiaojuan narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled. "Mr. Xu, I'm not happy with what you said. I'm really optimistic about the factory, but I can't take over these old employees. You know I'm in the clothing business."
"Although they have never worked in the clothing industry, you can let them learn. Then the fittest will survive. Mr. Song, it's not as easy for your factory to recruit people now as it was in the past two years. No factory will be so kind as to keep your people for you." Mr. Xu laughed twice after he finished speaking.
Seeing that the other person's eyes were almost gone from laughing, Song Xiaojuan snorted in her heart, thinking that he was taking her for an ignorant fool. With such an IQ, it was no wonder that someone set her up.
She still had a smile on her face as she raised her glass and clinked it with the other man's. "Mr. Xu knows that the clothing industry is a rush job. If I were to hire someone to teach me now, the cost would be too high. Of course, even if the deal doesn't work out, there's still friendship. It's fate that we get to know Mr. Xu."
Mr. Xu became anxious when he heard this. He was in urgent need of money and there was only one buyer at the moment. He had no other choice but to take a step back.
Song Xiaojuan's request went beyond that: "Mr. Xu, I want a clean factory. You have to give me a guarantee that my employees won't come here to cause trouble over their wages."
The other factory manager was also a smart man. He understood what Song Xiaojuan meant, discussed it with General Manager Xu, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed.
Only after Mr. Xu had handled the matter smoothly did Song Xiaojuan sign the contract with them.
The factory has been established, and the task of recruiting people is now left to Xiao Dong.
