I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 58 Acquisition (23)

Thinking of this, Chen Yu checked the time.

It was already 10 p.m., and although he felt a little embarrassed, he was so excited that he couldn't wait any longer.

He immediately contacted Luo Tong, first sending 100 units of magic power to scout ahead, then hurriedly asked: "Luo Tong, do you have time now? If not, you can continue resting; if you do, could you accept the red envelope and then do something for me?"

Luo Tong: [President Chen, next time please just say what you need. There's no need to try and bribe me with red envelopes.]

Chen Yu: [No, I already feel bad for disturbing your rest, I won't feel at ease if I don't give you some money.]

Luo Tong: [But I feel guilty accepting this! Mr. Chen, I did this voluntarily!]

Chen Yu: [Don't mention "voluntary." I feel uncomfortable seeing those two words now. They take my money and then make me work! Here's what happened...]

When Luo Tong shared his idea of ​​acquiring Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory with him, Luo Tong was somewhat bewildered.

He carefully read through the previous chat, but he still couldn't figure out what Chen Yu was thinking.

You're a dream weaver, then a student at a sports school, and how did you end up wanting to acquire a factory?

Have I been sleeping too well lately and overslept?

However, since Chen Yu has a need, he must fulfill it.

Telling Chen Yu to calm down, Luo Tong immediately contacted his good friend and sent Chen Yu's request to the three of them.

He called his brothers and went out together. They headed straight to the night market at the sports high school, found a place to grill beef, and then sat around a small table to discuss Chen Yu's needs.

The shorter man laid out his notebook, distributed sharpened pencils, and then began taking meeting minutes.

After ordering, the man with glasses spoke first: "Mr. Chen talked to me about working in a factory a couple of days ago. So you want a factory? But what does Mr. Chen want to do with the factory?"

"Exit...?" the short man asked, puzzled.

"What kind of export could be related to dreams?"

The tall man remained silent, biting his pencil as he pondered the matter of Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory.

The four of them spent a total of 280 yuan on academic subjects, but they still couldn't figure out what Chen Yu was up to.

After realizing he couldn't figure it out, Glasses coughed lightly: "Since we can't figure it out, let's stop thinking about it. Our principle is that President Chen must be right; if President Chen is wrong, then there must be evil spirits disturbing our resolve, so let's just see a doctor."

“That’s right. At this point, we shouldn’t worry about what President Chen wants to do. Helping President Chen achieve his goal is the right thing to do. Here is some information I collected about Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory. Take a look.”

Luo Tong distributed the materials, and the four of them ate beef while reviewing the documents from Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory.

The machinery factory was one of Tianyuan's few star industries and a legacy of Tianyuan's golden age.

However, with the decline of the golden age, the machinery factory lacked the motivation and investment to upgrade its products, and gradually fell behind the times.

Currently, all production lines except for the Trapper 4 have been completely shut down.

But precisely because it had fallen behind, the former committee forgot about this place when they fled, which led to it becoming one of the few factories in Tianyuan that can export.

The current factory manager is the principal of a high school. Since he took over the machinery factory, the factory's revenue has been declining and it has now started to lose money.

Due to severe losses, the machine factory is undergoing bankruptcy reorganization, but it is still receiving orders and exporting the Decoy 4 model.

Taking all factors into account, Luo Tong pinched his chin and said, "This is not good."

"Yes, we have too much debt, bloated staff, and huge expenses in all aspects. We rely on imports for raw materials, but there is only one place to export, making us vulnerable to being held hostage."

"Personnel..."

"Hmm, the Tianyuan Cultivator Committee is now interested in selling the factory to obtain working capital. However, the condition is that all workers be retained, and their salaries remain unchanged. They will also take over all liabilities, and the asking price is two million... Does the company have that much money in its account?"

The four looked at each other, then shrugged, indicating they didn't know.

Although it felt like the factory would be a liability after the acquisition, since Chen Yu wanted it, Luo Tong still compiled the relevant opinions and sent them to Chen Yu.

A moment later, Chen Yu replied: 【Great! This is exactly what I wanted! Don't worry about the money, I'll use my magic to pay in installments! We absolutely have to get this factory sorted out!】

With Chen Yu's permission, Luo Tong took a bite of the roasted beef, exchanged opinions with his brothers, and then discussed the acquisition while eating the beef.

"I feel like we can push the price down a bit more. I don't think the factory and site can be converted into that much money. Two million is the maximum."

“Employee salaries are a major expense. There are currently 200 people in the factory, with an average monthly salary of 2,000 yuan. That's 400,000 yuan a month, which is a challenge for our company’s revenue.”

"The factory is worth six million, with four million in debt, so two million is reasonable. But there are many hidden costs that are difficult to calculate, so we need to assess them."

"Transportation..." "Yes, transportation has to be taken into account. If transportation is inconvenient, we'll have to lower the factory price as well."

"Permissions".

"Yes. Our company doesn't actually have the authority to make acquisitions; we'll have to be affiliated with someone else in the end."

The four of them chatted and ate meat, and before they knew it, their voices had gotten a little louder.

The owner, who was in charge of grilling the meat, looked at them with a puzzled expression, then looked at his own meat.

Did they add too much of the ingredients?
But small workshops can't suppress the effects of drugs if they don't use strong enough.

These four people haven't been drinking, so why are they talking nonsense?
You guys are really good at bragging, talking about deals worth millions all the time.

Will I be able to get my money back for the barbecue soon?

As the four continued their discussions, an acquisition deal gradually took shape.

However, when the acquisition proposal was sent to Chen Yu, Chen Yu immediately rejected it.

Don't try to negotiate a lower price for the land; just buy it at the original price. The important thing is to get it back as soon as possible!

Don't lower prices, don't lay off employees, and make sure they receive all the necessary insurance and housing fund benefits—don't leave anything out!

By the way, could you please find me a breakdown of the workers' salaries? I need to figure out how to increase their pay.

Remember, never mistreat the workers. They're suffering too much; there's no need to skimp on money at this time!

After reading Chen Yu's requirements, Luo Tong's feelings were as complicated as the recipe for the beef in front of him.

Mr. Chen, if we calculate it this way, the final acquisition price will have to be close to six million.

Is a loss-making factory really necessary?
While the others were deep in thought, the tall man picked up the information about Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory with great interest and kept reading it.

Noticing the tall man's increasingly excited expression, Luo Tong asked, "Qin Tian, ​​do you have any ideas?"

"like."

"I know you like puppets and machines, but my question is, do you know what President Chen is thinking?"

"Revitalization Plan".

One sentence enlightened everyone.

Yup!

Revitalization Plan!

This must be a grand scheme by President Chen. We, the lowly soldiers, only need to obediently follow the plan, and victory will come automatically.

"In that case, let's value the land higher and buy all the minerals and by-products inside."

"Buy all the insurance for the factory, including fire insurance, earthquake insurance, as well as insurance for inner demons, evil spirits, and fall insurance for practitioners."

"Let's buy the surrounding land as well. It's all polluted land anyway, so the price isn't high."

"Green...greening too."

"Well, anyway, it's about buying."

When the letter of intent for the acquisition was finalized, Luo Tong felt like he had gone mad after reading it.

This plan involved buying up almost everything around the factory and related guarantees, raising the acquisition price to 520 million.

Wow, that's pretty romantic.

Uneasy, Luo Tong sent the acquisition proposal to Chen Yu, and quickly received a reply:
【Well done! That's exactly what I wanted! I'll pay you triple for working overtime tonight, remember to report your late-night snack expenses to me, and bonuses will be calculated separately!】

Also, don't eat at those small workshops next time; they use strong drugs there. Go to the small restaurants; the iron golems there know me, and they'll put the tab on your plate.

After reading the message, Luo Tong felt a little regretful.

I regret not meeting Mr. Chen sooner.
