My girlfriend is from 1949

Manager Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Brother-in-law, they're the ones who want to buy our factory!"

His voice held excitement, as well as a hint of anticipation.

He also contributed money when he started this factory.

If we can really sell the factory, we can also get a share of the profits.

Hong Dong glanced at his brother-in-law, then looked at the four young men and women ten meters away.

My eyes immediately lit up, especially at that black UV.

A luxury car worth millions means he's a wealthy person.

However, the details of the transaction and the price depend on how much the other party offers.

Moreover, the brother-in-law also mentioned being threatened during the phone call.

So even though he was interested in the deal, he was still unhappy about it.

At least in terms of price, they'll definitely try to squeeze out a hefty sum.

Their business is illegal, so naturally they won't follow market rules.

Forced buying and selling has happened before.

When we purchased this set of machinery, we used underhanded methods to drastically reduce the price.

If times hadn't changed, they'd probably still be using that protection money system.

So instead of transforming its business, it started doing real industry.

They opened a factory that specializes in selling counterfeit and substandard beverages.

The seventeen or eighteen men around them were the workers who also served as "security guards."

Their collective appearance now is clearly intended to intimidate us.

That way, we can take the initiative during negotiations and get a better price, right?

Hong Dong wore a warm smile, which, although it looked fake, at least showed his "enthusiastic" attitude.

He extended his right hand and smiled, saying, "Welcome, Mr. Chen, to Hongdong Beverage Group!"

Manager Zhang and the others were stunned for a moment, and doubts arose in their hearts.

Their illegal counterfeit and shoddy factory doesn't even have a business license. When did it become a group?

But I realized it instantly.

When you're out in the world, you give yourself your own identity.

If we want to put it in a more sophisticated way, how can we highlight its status and sell it for a good price?

After all, who would want to be a slacker when they can wear a suit and tie?

Selling the factory at a high price through deceptive tactics would be much more profitable than selling counterfeit and substandard beverages.

Moreover, those who drive luxury cars worth millions are definitely easy targets.

How could we miss it?

Chen Huai'an came from a business background and was already very familiar with this kind of scene.

Even if you can tell that the other person's smile is fake, they might already hate you to death inside.

However, when you're out and about, you need to speak to people in a human way and to ghosts in a ghost way; being insincere and evasive is the basic skill.

Holding his chubby hand, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry for being so abrupt and causing trouble for President Hong."

Hong Dong was caught off guard by the other party's friendly attitude, which left him at a loss.

I was just thinking that if the other party didn't give me face, I could take the opportunity to make trouble.

But now that the other party is giving us face, we need to change our approach.

After all, people who can afford to drive luxury cars worth millions need a reason to extort money.

Chen Huai'an released his grip and suggested, "How about Mr. Hong shows us around the factory first?"

Hong Dong frowned, a hint of hesitation on his face.

If they visit, it might affect the subsequent negotiations.

Unfortunately, Chen Huai'an didn't give him a chance to refuse and walked straight towards the factory.

A dozen burly men stood in front, all casting questioning glances at their leader.

"Let Boss Chen take a look."

At Hong Dong's command, the dozen or so people blocking the doorway made way.

However, the voice giving the order carried a chilling undertone.

Chen Huai'an didn't care about attitude at all, since they weren't going to make friends anyway.

Once the money and goods are exchanged, there is virtually no chance of them meeting again.

Lin Wan looked wary and quickly followed.

She had just stepped through the door when she was overwhelmed by a strange smell, and her brows furrowed.

Lu Tong quickly covered her nose, her brows furrowed, and asked, "What's that smell?"

The air was filled with the stench of sewage, which seemed to be mixed with the smell of urine.

The smell hits you right in the head, it's so strong it's intoxicating!

The factory building is very large, nearly 100 meters long, and although it is old, it can still provide shelter from the wind and rain.

Inside the factory, there is a production line that has been downgraded.

There are also many instruments piled up at the other end of the factory.

The equipment of what was originally a large factory, apart from the main operating equipment, was piled up to the side.

They managed to reduce it to a small workshop.

Moreover, the ground was covered in black sewage, and stepping on it would stain your white sneakers black.

On the other side, generations of powdered raw materials were haphazardly piled up in the corner.

You can still see workers grabbing raw materials with their bare hands and scooping a cup from a large bucket without any lid to taste it.

The rest was poured back into the large bucket.

There was another worker nearby who was putting water from the tap directly into a bucket.

Even under the machine, we found several dead rats!

With such poor hygiene, getting diarrhea after drinking it would be the least of your worries!

Chen Huai'an had always thought that these counterfeit and shoddy manufacturers were at most just making knockoffs and imitating other people's products.

However, due to a lack of regulation, their hygiene conditions may not be as good as those of legitimate businesses.

But seeing the environment on site, I realized what filth and disorder really meant.

It's truly heartless to give people something like this to drink!

Chen Huai'an had previously felt that using threats was dishonorable, so he decided to part ways with them after buying the goods and let them go.

But after seeing the disgusting conditions on site, even if I bought the production line, I would still anonymously report these people.

They don't treat consumers like human beings at all. Even pig farms are cleaner than this place. They are utterly heartless!

Chen Huai'an covered his nose and walked out of the factory.

If I stay inside for too long, I'm really worried I'll lose my sense of smell.

Hong Dong, standing beside him, said with a smile, "Now that Boss Chen has finished his tour, let's name a purchase price."

Chen Huai'an took a deep breath, which relieved the stench.

He asked, "Mr. Hong, what price do you think is appropriate?"

Hong Dong held up three fingers and said, "Thirty million, the factory is yours, all for the taking!"

Manager Zhang's eyes widened, and his face showed an expression of utter astonishment.

During the acquisition, some tricks were used, so it only cost one million, which is equivalent to the price of scrap metal.

I never imagined that it would increase thirtyfold in just two months!

He knew his brother-in-law's methods all too well and didn't believe the other party would ultimately refuse.

"Are you crazy? Why don't you just rob it!"

These are all old equipment from the 1980s; even brand new ones would cost at most seven or eight million.

I'm afraid that apart from Mr. Chen, no one would buy this kind of old antique nowadays!

Even if you sent them to Africa, they'd consider them too backward!

Lu Tong frowned, angered by the exorbitant price demand.

Even if you ask for an exorbitant price and exchange it for cash, there's a limit, isn't there?

She considered selling the old one as new, asking for seven or eight million.

Then slowly negotiate the price, and you should be able to close the deal at three million.

But to my surprise, the other party made an exorbitant demand.

This is enough to infuriate the buyer and make them want to storm out!
