When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First

71 It Would Not Be Fair If We Do Not Compensate The Working People

The sale of Factory Manager Pei’s factory was not only its factories and equipment, but also the land under his feet. It was just that the northwest suburbs were too desolate, and no one was interested in this land.

Coupled with the global financial crisis in the past two years, there were factory buildings everywhere. Everyone else was going for cheaper ones.

Luo Feng kept thinking about the northwestern suburbs. He felt that it was very familiar from the first time he heard this name but he couldn’t remember where he heard it from.

Ai Tingya couldn’t make up her mind, so she could only wait for Luo Feng to make the decision.

Seeing that the two of them did not speak, Factory Manager Pei said helplessly, “I know you think this land is worthless. I think so too. The roads at the entrance were built by the nearby residents with their own money. The government doesn’t care at all.”

His words reminded Luo Feng!

No wonder he felt that the northwestern suburbs were very familiar. It was because this was the center of Nanlin City’s new city in his previous life and the most prosperous area in Nanlin City after that.

The reason why it was so desolate was because the government had yet to plan this place!

“I’m buying it!” Luo Feng immediately decided.

Factory Manager Pei was so shocked that he could not speak. He organized his words slightly before saying, “Do you know how much I’m selling it for?”

“Tell me.”

“…2.5 million yuan!” Factory Manager Pei said.

He was very uncertain facing these two students. In addition, Luo Feng said he wanted to buy them without asking for the price. This was too childish. Perhaps these two brats will find a random reason later to say they won’t buy it after all.

Luo Feng thought about it and said, “2.5 million yuan, this doesn’t sound too good.”

“Here it comes.” Factory Manager Pei sighed silently and thought without hope. “He’s definitely not buying it then.”

Unexpectedly, Luo Feng continued, “I’ll add another 200,000yuan on the condition that you help us on a small favor!”

“Huh?”

Factory Manager Pei and Ai Tingya opened their mouths in shock.

Ai Tingya felt that she was wrong. Luo Feng was still the same Luo Feng. He was still so biased.

Factory Manager Pei was so happy that he couldn’t find his bearings. He was also worried that Luo Feng would make fun of him. “You’re not lying to me, right? What favor?”

Luo Feng said, “In the future, we’ll be producing milk tea ingredients. The machines in the factory will definitely not work. I hope you can help us find two suitable machines. They don’t have to be too good, as long as they can produce normally.”

He remembered that the development in the northwest suburbs had begun when he was in his sophomore year. At that time, all the factories and households here had to move elsewhere, so he could just buy a second-hand machine.

“That’s simple,” Factory Manager Pei agreed immediately. He had been running a factory for so many years, so it was easy for him to take out two machines. “What else?”

“Also, help me find out about the sale of land. I want as much land as possible there is in the surrounding area.” Luo Feng calculated. It would be a profitable business regardless of whether the government buys it or he builds up on it himself.

Factory Manager Pei didn’t understand. Their northwestern suburbs were so inconvenient, and the land wasn’t very fertile. There wasn’t even a vegetable grower, so why would Luo Feng buy land?

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Luo Feng asked, “Do you agree?”

“That’s easy. I’ll get a friend to ask around for you.”

It was not difficult to buy land. Factory Manager Pei felt that these two requests were really simple. He could earn an additional 200,000 yuan just by asking a few questions!

…

Business was going well inside but the workers outside were indeed gloomy.

The workers sat on the ground and waited for the news inside. A man with a crew cut asked Old Ma, “Do you think it will work this time? Previously, seven or eight people came to buy the factory, but Factory Manager Pei didn’t manage to negotiate the sale.”

Old Ma sighed. “I don’t know. They look like students to me. Who knows if they’re really here to buy a factory?”

The crew-cut man said helplessly, “Let’s wait. We’ve been waiting for half a year. This little while won’t make a difference.”

There were more than 50 workers in the entire factory, but only a dozen of them were left. The remaining workers could not wait any more and had long gone out to work.

They had to support their families. Food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation all cost money. They could wait for two months, but half a year was too long. The remaining people here were either stubborn or had family matters to attend to. They could only guard here to the death.

Of course, Old Ma did not want to sit on this hard concrete floor and wait. He also wanted to go out and work.

The cost of milk powder for his one-year-old son at home was hundreds of yuan a month. His wife, who had just given birth, could not work, and his parents were old. He had to raise four mouths alone, and the pressure of the entire family’s survival was on his shoulders.

The family had old, weak, women, and a child. Old Ma did not want to abandon them and go out to work if there was a job near home.

Thinking of this, Old Ma buried his face in his rough hands.

“No matter how much we get today, I’ll immediately buy a ticket to the south. I heard that many factories there are hiring and their salaries are higher than Nanlin.” The crew-cut man said looking at his dejected face.

Old Ma did not know how to answer.

There were fewer and fewer of them, and their strength was getting weaker. The chances of getting money were also getting lower and lower.

However, what could the others say? If possible, who would be willing to leave their hometown?

Old Ma was distraught. The scale in his heart placed his family on one side and the pressure of survival on the other. The surrounding sighs tilted to the pressure of survival.

He reached into his pocket, thinking of smoking a cigarette to ease his mood. Unexpectedly, he only felt the hole in his pocket.

Old Ma laughed self-deprecatingly. In this situation, he could not even afford a pack of cigarettes that cost five yuan.

…

When the three people who were discussing business came out of the factory, the workers immediately got up from the ground. Hope and despair were written all over their faces.

Factory Manager Pei hid behind Luo Feng. He was no longer the person in charge.

Everyone’s gaze gathered on Luo Feng’s face: “How was the negotiation? When can you pay up?”

Luo Feng said, “I think this factory is not bad, I’ve already decided to buy it.”

“I’ve also agreed to Director Pei’s request. I’ll settle your arrears today, but I feel that it’s a little inappropriate.”

The sudden turn of events made the workers droop their heads, feeling very uneasy. They would not insist on half a year’s salary. They were already very satisfied as long as they had three months!

They only begged not to delay any longer!

...

Luo Feng said slowly, “Since he owed you guys for so long, I have to give you at least another half a year’s salary as compensation!”

Everyone looked up in surprise, suspecting that they were hallucinating.

“There are also workers who have left the factory. Please inform them that they will also have similar compensation. Remember to come and register.”

“Not only that, the food factory will return to normal after that. I don’t mind increasing your salary by another 20% if you’re willing to stay and you perform well. The treatment will be the same for workers who left and are willing to come back.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Old Ma stammered, “Bro… Boss, is what you said true?”

Luo Feng nodded and smiled, “Of course it’s true. You can start registering your name immediately and get your arrears settled before you sign the new contract.”
