Chapter 31

Seeing one leaf and knowing deep autumn, glimpsing one spot and seeing the whole leopard.

After inspecting the assets of the toy factory, Director Shang had a more intuitive understanding of TEP.

Rich!

Not just rich!

As he thought...

TEP started a toy factory, and Yellow Mud Hillock provided two hundred mu of land, investing millions directly in this poor and remote place.

Theft is never good, try looking at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

If TEP were to start a tractor manufacturing factory, the county would provide three thousand mu of land. They couldn't just hire a few workers to assemble tractor parts and deceive us, right?

With such a large plot of land and a company with so much money, even if it's not on the level of "Yituo" or "Tiantuo," it would still be on the scale of "Shifeng" or "Wuzheng."

Especially with the current focus on attracting foreign enterprises, introducing technology, promoting development, and solving employment.

"As long as the project is implemented, I, Shang, am afraid I will become the county leader!"

Xu Fei saw three fingers and was confused at first, but then he became excited.

Three thousand mu of land!

How big is that?

"Leader, you can't deceive me!"

"Promoting investment cannot be taken lightly."

Director Shang understood what Xu Fei was thinking. It's not easy for a Chinese person to work in a foreign enterprise. If we deceive him, those foreigners might give him a hard time in the future. "I, Shang, can vouch for it with my integrity!"

"Then it's settled!"

"Wait for good news!"

Director Shang called the Industrial Bureau and the two waved goodbye.

Xu Fei watched the two police cars leave the toy factory and, while relieved that they had successfully passed the asset verification, he was instantly filled with fighting spirit.

"Let's get moving!"

Back in the workshop, he adjusted the production structure again.

The 20 Mechanical Three Kingdoms production lines had already been installed and debugged by noon.

The production of 23 types of frog monsters stopped, while 10 types of traditional tin toys continued.

Although the three-shift system would start tomorrow, production could not stop.

"Daily production of 80,000 pieces, tomorrow we can produce 160,000."

"The Mechanical Three Kingdoms will definitely sell well..."

"After selling each piece separately, the characters will be sold for 2 yuan, weapons for 1 yuan, and cloaks for 3 yuan."

"The Mechanical Horse occupies one production line, costing 2 yuan."

"By this calculation, the daily production of traditional tin toys is 27,000 pieces, earning 40,000 yuan."

"The daily production of Mechanical Characters and Mechanical Horses is 53,000 pieces, earning 106,000 yuan. And with the dismantled parts, weapons and cloaks, about 50,000 sets can be sold, earning 200,000 yuan."

"27,000 plus 106,000 plus 200,000, that's 333,000 yuan!"

"Oh my goodness!"

"Millions of monthly income!"

"But why is selling parts so profitable?"

"Never mind, I won't think about it."

Xu Fei returned to his office and contacted the owner of the photo studio.

Today, he found out that the other party was using a digital camera.

This way, he could take several sets of poses for the Mechanical Three Kingdoms heroes and upload them to the computer.

However, the new products couldn't be leaked during the stocking period. Otherwise, all the toy factories in the south, big and small, would be able to imitate them overnight, and then there would be plastic Three Kingdoms everywhere.

Although our costs are low and we're not afraid of price wars, hurting the enemy by a thousand while losing eight hundred, who would think they're not making enough money?

So, for now, when taking photos, we'll just retouch them and wait until they're ready for distribution...

"We seem to not have a graphic designer."

"And our distribution channels are all for foreign trade, not domestic."

Xu Fei thought for a moment, picked up his phone, and dialed the saved number for the Yellow Mud Hillock Supply and Marketing Cooperative:

"Hey, Nannan, it's me."

"Xu Fei, today I exchanged some old stock that couldn't be sold at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative for some cooperative shares for you."

"Then I'll have the toy factory's finance department reimburse you for the payment."

"No need, there's no record of inventory, why are you calling?"

"Do you know other regional Supply and Marketing Cooperatives?"

"I know a few, including my classmate."

"Well, over here..."

The Supply and Marketing Cooperative was suffering heavy losses and urgently needed to turn them into profits.

It's not a big deal to have the Supply and Marketing Cooperative do consignment sales, especially with personal connections.

Xu Fei obtained the phone number of the county Supply and Marketing Cooperative through Lou Nannan, and after thinking for a moment, he had a sudden inspiration and contacted Director Shang, who had just left not long ago.

Unexpectedly, the other party quickly took control of the entire Guicheng County Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and even took over several surrounding counties.

"So, without connections, what kind of business can we do?!"

Before he could finish speaking, Gong, the director of the Industrial Bureau, called.

The other party helped take care of the urban Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

And even took over several school canteens.

"These two leaders have such a large network of connections."

"It seems that in the future, we should interact more with these leaders."

Thinking of this, Xu Fei remembered his promise to Lou Nannan to treat her cousin to a Western meal.

As a man, he must keep his word.

He glanced at the calendar on his desk.

October 19th, Friday.

He immediately picked up the phone, "Hey, Nannan, is your cousin free tomorrow, Saturday?"

"Cousin?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end, "She's free!"

"Then let's go to the county town for a Western meal tomorrow?"

"Sure, but we have to leave early, otherwise we won't catch the minibus."

"No need, I have a car. Wait for me at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative tomorrow."

"Okay!"

"By the way, ask Lou Xiaohu to come to the toy factory to work tomorrow."

"So he's hired so quickly?"

"I am the Factory Director after all, I have some say."

"Thank you, Xu Fei."

"No need to be polite, we're family."

...

"Lao Huang, what's the meaning of getting a license plate with 44444?"

"I have no choice, all the good numbers were taken by rich people. I contacted several consecutive number plate owners, but they wouldn't sell except for this one. We can't have an ordinary number plate for such a good car, right?"

The spirited tiger head of the car, Hu Tou Ben, crushed the bumpy ice slag as it drove on Yellow Mud Hillock Street.

In the early morning, the weather was cold, and not even a few people were out walking, let alone the stalls selling fried dough sticks and buns.

Da Ma drove the car, Lao Huang sat in the passenger seat, and Xu Fei lay diagonally in the back seat.Actually, Big Ma only had engineering-related certificates, not a driver's license, but he drove over in the morning and got a booklet on the spot.

From then on...

Finance Big Ma, Bodyguard Big Ma, Driver Big Ma, Administration Big Ma, Maintenance Worker Big Ma, Deputy Factory Director Big Ma.

Previously, Old Huang was not convinced by the sudden appearance of Big Ma, but after witnessing his abilities, he started to call him "Master Ma".

"Master Ma, your shoes seem a bit small, aren't they uncomfortable?"

"The Factory Director requested it."

"..."

During the conversation, the Tiger Head Sprint stopped at the entrance of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

Xu Fei rolled down the car window, "Nan Nan, let's go!"

"A Tiger Head Sprint, is your factory so rich?"

"The parent company provided it for me."

"Worthy of a foreign enterprise!"

Lou Nan Nan opened the car door and climbed in, looking around before she spoke.

Old Huang glanced at the small shoes on Big Ma's feet, then turned to look at the young couple in the back seat, "Well, Factory Director, I suddenly remembered that there are still many tasks unarranged for the new product shipment, so I won't go to the county for Western food."

"What's the rush? There's a cycle for stock preparation, we still need to hire a couple of draftsmen, we can afford to lose a day."

"No, I have a flaw, I take my work seriously!"

Saying this, Half Blind Huang pushed open the car door, "See you later."

Seeing this, Big Ma thought for a moment, sighed suddenly, gripped the steering wheel, shifted gears, stepped on the accelerator, and headed straight for Gu City.

He couldn't leave, otherwise who would drive?

An hour and a half later.

The car drove into a dilapidated town that was even worse than the Electric Fan Factory.

Looking around, apart from the water tower, there were only a few six-story buildings.

This was Gu City County.

It used to be called a pigsty by the Electric Fan Factory.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the same cycle of fortune had turned.

The Electric Fan Factory had become a ruin, but the pigsty had been built.

"Having a car is good, not only warm but also stable. Before, when I rode a motorcycle to the county with Ah Zheng from the village, we always ended up dusty and disheveled."

Lou Nan Nan nodded in agreement upon hearing this, "Where are we going for Western food?"

"I just heard about it, Big Ma, ask at the best hotel in the county."

"Factory Director, where is the best hotel? I'm not familiar."

"I don't know either, I've only heard that Gu City Hotel is quite impressive, but I've never heard of Gu City Grand Hotel. Nan Nan, your cousin teaches in the county, she should be more familiar, shall we pick her up first and look together?"

"I'll get out of the car and call to ask."

"No need, I have a mobile phone."

"..."

Where am I going to find you a cousin?

Lou Nan Nan picked up the phone, thought for a moment, dialed the landline of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative where a classmate worked, and before the other party could speak, "Cousin, my friend is here, he said we should have Western food together, what? You're out of town? Okay."

Click!

She hung up the phone.

Lou Nan Nan puffed out her chest and said righteously, "My cousin is not at home, let's go eat first."
