Chapter 35 – Big, our company is very big!

Night.

The sound of Old Xu pushing open the door woke Xu Fei from his sleep.

The ferocious dog that appeared behind the door at some point nonchalantly crawled back under the bed.

Old Xu looked at the scene and said, "Strange, why is this dog following you?"

"I made a deal with it, and it agreed."

"..."

"Why are you back so late?"

"I met a comrade and chatted with him at the agricultural machinery station. I also found him a place to stay."

"Didn't you have a drink?"

"I wanted to, but after fixing three diesel engines, the restaurants were already closed."

Old Xu took off his coat, picked up the kettle on the stove, and freshened up. "With this dog in our house, aren't you afraid it will cause trouble when the village chief comes back?"

"I have you, if it provokes me, you can beat it."

"I can beat it, but we're not in the right."

"When I become the village chief next year, we'll be in the right."

"Why?"

"Whose dog is this?"

"It's the village chief's!"

After Old Xu finished speaking, he suddenly realized and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xu Fei said softly, "When I become the village chief next year, everyone in the village will say that this dog belongs to the village chief's family. If Xu Sheng dares to snatch it, we'll go to court!"

"..."

"And his genuine leather coat is pretty good too."

"..."

"The whole Yellow Mud Hillock knows that the village chief of Xu's family has three treasures: a ferocious dog, a genuine leather coat, and a beautiful southern wife."

"You, get out! If you dare to abduct his wife, I'll kill you!"

"I don't want to."

"By the way, how did Xu Sheng offend you?"

"Do you remember why I used to run so fast when I was young?"

"Because you were chased by a dog."

"Oh, I forgot. I wrote to tell you before. Since I was five years old, Xu Sheng started raising dogs. Every time he saw me, he would chase after me. He kept chasing me until I went to high school in the county. Do you think this grudge is big or not?"

"When he comes back, I'll have a good chat with him." Old Xu clenched his fingers, full of resentment.

This novel is available on "p𝑎wread.com".

"No need, I've decided. When I become the village chief, we'll turn the tables. This dog will start chasing him. Roughly speaking, let's make it a round number, chase him for ten years."

"..."

After chatting for a while, they turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Xu Fei glanced at the energy that had already been settled in the early morning.

Current: 470,000.

Accumulated: 713,000.

"It's time to repair the tank factory. It's time to pave the way for the tractor manufacturing plant."

"The factory site has three thousand mu of land promised by Director Shang."

"In terms of business, I'll ask Old Xu about the purchase of tracks at the agricultural machinery station."

"If they dare to quote high prices, he has our people around him. We'll directly press them to the lowest!"

"I'm so clever!"

Xu Fei coughed and summarized, "Hey, are you asleep?"

"Almost."

"I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead."

"Do they still change the tracks for those three Dongfanghong tracked tractors at the agricultural machinery station?"

"Yes, when I became the stationmaster and went to report to the county, the Agricultural Bureau reminded me to repair them as soon as possible. Next year, they can be leased for farming or sold at a low price to those who want them, or they can be converted into bulldozers."

"What's the price for the tracks?"

"A pair of track assemblies costs twenty thousand yuan. If it's any higher, it will exceed the budget."

"Twenty thousand?"

Xu Fei used to think that twenty thousand was quite a lot, but now that he realized the toy factory earns millions of yuan a month, he suddenly felt it was a bit less. But then he thought, changing the track assemblies for one agricultural machinery station, three tractors would be sixty thousand yuan. How many agricultural machinery stations are there in the country?

Although not all agricultural machinery stations change track assemblies, there are many other places that use tracks.

Construction sites, mines, sand and gravel plants, quarries...

And unlike toys, tracks are consumables. Once the quantity goes up, it's probably going to be over a hundred million.

Hearing his son's disappointed tone, Old Xu said, "You've been a bit distracted lately. What's wrong with twenty thousand? That's also two ten-thousandaires."

"It's not popular to be a ten-thousandaire now. They're all called Huang Millionaire or Liu Millionaire."

"So are you Xu Millionaire now?"

"No, I'm just a worker."

Xu Fei changed the topic, "Hey, you know, our company is very big."

"I know, stop showing off and go to sleep."

"No, listen to me. Our company has many businesses, making toys is just a small part of it, not a major industry."

"Really? I chatted with the village head, and he said the assets of the toy factory have exceeded ten million!"

"Yes, even if you casually invest in a toy factory, it's at the ten-million level. Just think about it, how big are those main industries?"

"It's probably several billion, right?"

Old Xu thought for a moment and sighed, "Truly a multinational corporation."

"So, our company doesn't mainly focus on toys."

"Then what does your company mainly focus on?"

"Tracks."

"Tracks? What kind? For agriculture? Mining? Or accessories?"

"Tank tracks."

"Hmm?"In the darkness, Old Xu sat up in shock, then let out a sigh of relief, "Oh, right, your company is a multinational corporation, it's not strange to sell tank tracks. But... who dares to buy tank tracks in China?"

"Tractor manufacturers!"

"You're overthinking it. Tractor and tank parts used to be interchangeable, but not anymore."

Xu Fei was slightly taken aback, "Not anymore?"

"Yes, like the three Dongfanghong 802s at the agricultural machinery station, they use the simplest single-axle iron tracks, weighing at most five or six hundred jin. They could be easily converted into tanks in the past.

But modern tanks all use double-axle, thickened tracks made of special materials. Especially those main battle tanks, the two tracks together weigh three or four tons. How can a tractor use them?

Besides, a tractor track costs three or four thousand yuan, and the total cost is no more than twenty thousand. But a tank track costs at least several hundred thousand, even millions. Who would be willing to equip their tractor with tank tracks?"

"..."

Then what the hell am I selling?

How am I supposed to acquire the toy factory in the future?

Xu Fei was a bit dumbfounded.

At this moment, Old Xu curiously asked, "Which country is your company from?"

"Uh... Germany!"

When he made up the TEP, Xu Fei didn't think about which country it was from. However, the equipment documents provided by the Strauss-Foreman Automobile Company, especially the shipping address, were all from Germany. When it came time to restore the tank factory and exchange tanks, they would probably be shipped from Germany.

"Germany."

In the darkness, Old Xu nodded, "If your company insists on you selling, bring me the track specifications. I'll see if I can help you sell one or two. Once you have some performance, apply for a transfer as soon as possible. In my opinion, it's better to continue selling toys as a side business of your company. Isn't it great to be a factory director, with a Tiger Head Ben as a bonus?"

"Uh-huh."

Xu Fei suddenly felt that his previous plans had been completely disrupted, but the thought that Old Xu might be able to sell one or two gave him a glimmer of hope.

If agricultural machinery can't use it, perhaps some heavy track equipment in a mine can.

Consumables, as long as the buyer approves, we will have a steady stream of orders in the future.

On a whim, he said, "Sir, could you also ask them if they need tank chassis?"

"..."

"You know, our company is very big!"

"..."

Old Xu was silent for a moment, "I might as well help you sell a tank!"

"That won't be necessary."

If we dare to sell a whole one, I'm afraid both of us will end up peeling garlic with our big cousin.

Xu Fei gave a wry smile and went back to sleep.
