Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 238 Disadvantages Book Fragrance

The breakfast lasted until eleven o'clock.

Xue Rui couldn't help but sigh that people in the south really know how to enjoy life, as they have researched so many categories of breakfast.

Lin Ruoxi ordered almost all the breakfast in the store and only started eating after she fed Xue Rui.

To be precise, the little girl's appetite is much bigger than his now...

I don’t know if it’s because her smart brain consumes more energy, but the little girl didn’t gain weight suddenly because of eating too much.

Xue Rui chatted with the uncles around him for a while. People left the teahouse one after another. Some of them who came to do business exchanged business cards with Xue Rui before leaving.

There was nothing strange about him. Those who could spend several hours having morning tea on weekdays were either retired elderly people or bosses with money and time.

Xue Rui looked at the stack of business cards in his hand. Most of them were from bosses in traditional industries, and had little to do with the products he was going to make...

But this is indeed a surprise. You can get a lot of information just by chatting for a while over breakfast.

"Someone asked me to visit the factory these days. Let's go over and take a look in the afternoon." Xue Rui said.

The current mobile power market is a mixed bag, with counterfeits still the mainstream. However, Xiaomi entered the market half a year ago and muddied the waters with its extremely high cost-performance ratio. The entry of large manufacturers will reshuffle the market and put a lot of small manufacturers to death.

Xue Rui made a rough estimate based on the news he had seen before and found that at least 2014% of mobile power companies would go bankrupt in . At that time, many small and micro enterprises were already on the verge of bankruptcy, and the business of related factories was not much better.

This is also why as soon as he revealed the news that he wanted to outsource product manufacturing, a large group of people came to him for help.

14 was also a period when battery cell prices dropped rapidly. There were a large number of leftover goods on the market, and the cost of making shared power banks was further reduced.

……

after one day.

While visiting the factory, Xue Rui received a call from Xue Jianfeng.

"Xiao Rui, when will you be able to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University? The admissions team has come to our house." Xue Jianfeng joked.

"Dad, ignore what they say." Xue Rui understood that it was the admissions office that came to his house.

"Who is Lin Ruoxi? Are you close enough to me to take you to Peking University or Tsinghua University?" Xue Jianfeng asked.

The admissions team has said that Xue Rui is the fiancé of the provincial top scorer, so Lin Ruoxi will go wherever Xue Rui goes.

How come he doesn't know this?
"Classmates." Xue Rui laughed.

"Tell me the truth." Xue Jianfeng pinched his eyebrows.

The teacher in the admissions group next to him mentioned the words "boyfriend" and "fiancé" more than once.

"Hello? Dad, can you hear me? The signal is bad here." Xue Rui held the phone far away and blocked the microphone from time to time to create the illusion of a poor signal before hanging up the phone.

Xue Jianfeng's eyes twitched. Could this little trick fool him?

"Mr. Xue, please persuade the child again. There are not many opportunities like this." Teacher Zhang said.

"You can also make any requests if you have any." The teacher from Peking University's admissions department said hurriedly.

Teacher Zhang was speechless. Normally, they and their rival school did not meet each other. Although they sometimes competed at the same negotiating table, today's situation was really rare.

The client was not at home, but they actually had dinner at the client's home...

"The child is so old now, I respect his ideas." Xue Jianfeng said with a smile.

What didn't Xue Rui know? He made the decision and Xue Rui had to listen to him. He just found an excuse to hang up on him. Did his promise work?
It would be better to just go along with Xue Rui and let him go wherever he wants.

However, this was his first time to come into contact with a group of highly educated people from Peking University and Tsinghua University, so he must invite them to dinner to add a scholarly flavor to his restaurant.

"The food will be here soon, don't leave." Xue Jianfeng hurriedly called for the waiter to serve the food.

"No, no, no."

"Alas, the fortune teller said that my place lacks the scent of books. You are my benefactors." Xue Jianfeng said seriously.

Teacher Zhang was speechless for a moment. Businessmen are very superstitious. The other party’s attitude showed that they were not going to let them go.

"Eat and drink well. If you have any requests, just let me know." Xue Jianfeng held Teacher Zhang's shoulders.

Teacher Zhang's eyes twitched. This family is really...

Unable to refuse the kind invitation, they had no choice but to stay for dinner. If they couldn't reach an agreement here, they would have to rush to the provincial capital the next day to snatch other students.

"What did you say? Were you rejected too?" Teacher Zhang asked casually.

"Well, they said they want to go abroad." said a teacher from Peking University's admissions team.

"Huh~" Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was a good thing that their opponent didn't get it.

……

After Xue Rui hung up the phone, he thought that things were finally over.

Yu Minlan said, "They're not going to fight for it anymore?"

The phone was almost blowing up in the morning, why is it suddenly quiet now?
Xue Rui looked at the photos sent by Xue Jianfeng and immediately understood.

"There are probably quite a few talented students recruited in advance by Tsinghua University and Peking University every year. One or two people are not important, but Lin Ruoxi holds the title of top scorer, and they are all afraid that she will get it..." Xue Rui showed the photo to Yu Minlan.

Now the two rivals, Peking University and Tsinghua University, are sitting at the same table. Both sides must have had a brief communication and understood each other's situation.

In this way, the admissions office will not be under too much pressure and naturally there will be no sense of urgency.

They didn't really want Lin Ruoxi, they just didn't want the title of the top scholar in the country to fall into the hands of the other party. He underestimated the value of the title of "top scholar", while Yu Minlan overestimated the value of genius;
With a population base of more than one billion, there is no shortage of geniuses. Are there not many genius children who skipped grades in the newspapers? I don't see many people making outstanding contributions in a certain field in the future.

Lin Ruoxi studied step by step and got the top score at the age of eighteen or nineteen. In the eyes of many people, she might not be as good as those kids who skipped grades.

Genius is only worth investing in, but it does not necessarily produce stable output;

Otherwise, someone would have started screening children's IQ starting in kindergarten.

To achieve success, it is not enough to just be smart. There are a lot of geniuses who do nothing.

……

Several people came to the gate of Hongxin Electronics Factory. The factory was not large. Compared with the big factories they had seen before, it looked more like a small workshop.

"Mr. Xue, welcome to visit our factory. My last name is He, and I'm both the factory director and the boss." The middle-aged man hurried forward to greet him, accompanied by a technician.

He was still a little surprised when he saw the people, because the people who came were too young.

But it doesn't matter. As long as the other party has money, it's fine. The market is sluggish now, and many factories are facing the situation of having no orders. What does it have to do with him whether Xue Rui makes a profit or not?
"Boss He." Xue Rui shook hands with the other party and found that his fingers were rough.

In such small factories, many bosses started from the bottom and worked hard to achieve their current success. It is not uncommon for them to be at the forefront of production.

Xue Rui is already very familiar with this process. He visited the production line, and the technicians explained the advantages of the production process, and finally talked about the price...

The group took a tour inside the factory, and the boring process made Xue Rui so sleepy that he wanted to sleep.

When leaving, Xue Rui asked about the quote, and the other party said that they had considered it and could discuss it in detail.

Xue Rui thought this was normal. They had to inquire about such things before quoting a price. If they quoted the price at the production line and it was obviously higher than the user's psychological expectations, it would easily drive the user away.

He is an outsider and only understands the entire industry. Lin Ruoxi is still the one who comes to him for reference on the specific production content.

"What do you think?" Xue Rui asked.

"Yes, sure." Lin Ruoxi said.

Xue Rui nodded slightly. It seemed that the quality of the OEM products from this small factory was pretty good, not as bad as he had imagined.

He looked at Lin Ruoxi, and Lin Ruoxi was looking at the workers working hard on the production line.

Although he said, "You can earn more if you lose your conscience," he was actually influenced by the little girl.

Sometimes he would think that with the information gap he knew, just making a few quick bucks would be enough to live a comfortable life.

For example, the current shared power banks are also a way to make quick money. When the shared economy bubble reaches its peak, the power bank business can be sold to make some capital money.

Labor-intensive industries make money from workers, so he might be able to take care of more people within his ability.

Since you don’t know how to choose, just choose a factory that treats its employees best. It doesn’t matter if the price is a little higher, because it can afford the premium.

"Mr. Xue, it's not easy for you to come here from far away. It's time for dinner, so I'll treat you to a meal and we can talk while we eat." Director He said.

Xue Rui looked at the workers who had just finished get off work and were having lunch. He said, "Don't bother. Let's eat in the factory."

Boss He thought that the other party was quite honest and might want to take a look at the staff cafeteria?
He simply took Xue Rui to the factory cafeteria, where he usually ate.

Although the staff canteen is not large, it is bright and clean, and the sanitary environment seems to be acceptable.

Seeing Xue Rui going to get food by himself, Yu Minlan was surprised. Normally, he needed someone to help him tie his shoelaces, but now he went to get food by himself?

"Boss Xue, why did you come here alone?" Yu Minlan asked in a low voice.

"I'm afraid they will give us special treatment." Xue Rui said.

Since we want to examine the living environment of the employees, we naturally have to see whether what we eat is the same as the workers, otherwise it would be meaningless.

Xue Rui took the food tray and found a place to sit down.

He found that many people were also greeting Director He, and thought that it was probably like this all the time.

The quality of the food was also acceptable. He took a small bite and found it better than the one in the school cafeteria.

Xue Rui saw the middle-aged man beside him and asked, "Master, why are you still working at such an old age?"

Lin Ruoxi sat next to Xue Rui, attracting the attention of many people.

Director He originally wanted to sit next to Xue Rui, but there was no seat next to Xue Rui, so he simply sat a little further away.

"There's nothing I can do. Farming at home doesn't make money." The uncle said cheerfully.

"Have you completed your mission, kid?" Xue Rui asked casually.

Lin Ruoxi's big eyes twinkled, and she asked in a low voice: "Do you know him?"

Xue Rui said: "I don't know him."

"Then how do you know his child has a mission?" Lin Ruoxi said.

"Hahaha." The uncle was amused.

Xue Rui poked the little girl's nose: "Don't you know? There is a mysterious organization in the world that assigns you a mission as soon as you are born."

"Well, do I have a mission too?" Lin Ruoxi asked.

"Yes, of course. Getting married and having children is our mission." The uncle said with a smile.
