Director Zhao came up with this idea, which his nephew inadvertently revealed to him during lunch. He said that the Taihua Company was in contact with the First Electrical Factory in Lin Province. Instead of letting them get the order, why not have the Bingcheng Electrical Factory take it and then subcontract it to other factories? The profit would be less, but they could still make half of it.
Upon hearing this, Director Zhao immediately came to find Factory Manager Li. After overhearing Feng Yuâs conversation at the door, he learned that Feng Yu was really going to hand the new order to someone else, so he rushed in.
After the contract was signed, Factory Manager Li was still praising Director Zhao. If it werenât for Old Zhaoâs quick thinking, the factory would have lost this big order.
One hundred and fifty thousand units could be subcontracted to three factories, with each factory taking fifty thousand units. They would split the profit equally. With one hundred and fifty thousand units, the Bingcheng Electrical Factory would make at least six hundred thousand in profit.
Although it was half of what they expected, it was still better than nothing, and it wouldnât interfere with their military production tasks. Yes, Old Zhao had worked in the factory for so many years and had a good reputation; it was time to promote him.
The busy farming season had just ended, and Feng Xingtai and Zhang Muhua, seeing that Feng Yu wasnât returning to Bingcheng, decided to come to the city to check things out. Didnât he say over the phone that he was making money? They planned to buy a house in Bingcheng for their daughter, which would make it easier for their son to go to school.
âWhat? Li Brother, you mean my parents are coming? Theyâre almost here?â
âYes, they called last night. Iâll go to the station to pick them up, and Iâve already booked a restaurant for lunch.â
Li Shiqiang no longer ran the government bonds; he was too busy with Taihua Company. After Feng Yu told him about the companyâs profits, Li Shiqiang realized that the small amount of money from government bonds wasnât worth the effort. Taihua Company was the real money-maker, and the Russian would be coming soon.
Li Shiqiang went to the station to pick up the family, while Feng Yu asked Wu Zhigang and the others to quickly clean the company. Both the upstairs office and the downstairs warehouse needed to be spotless.
Hearing that the big boss was coming, everyone quickly got to work. From Little Feng, they had already seen the temper of Big Feng. If they performed poorly, they might be forced to leave, right?
Little Feng had promised that everyone would get a hundred yuan bonus this month, and if they did well, they would get at least three hundred yuan in addition to their year-end gifts. This was much more than what they earned at the electrical factory, and no one wanted to leave.
Li Shiqiang was a bit nervous. Why were Uncle Feng and Aunt Zhang so quiet and serious on the way here? Did he do something wrong?
When they arrived at the company, Li Shiqiang quickly got out of the car, opened the door, and led the way with enthusiasm. Although Uncle Feng had been to the company, Aunt Zhang hadnât.
âWelcome, welcome, warmly welcome! Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome!â
As soon as they reached the door, ten young men rushed out from the warehouse, forming two rows at the entrance. They clapped and shouted slogans in unison, their actions precise and their voices loud and spirited.
âDad, Mom, youâre finally here.â Feng Yu came out, greeting them warmly. But Li Shiqiang noticed that Feng Yuâs expression seemed a bit fawning.
âWhatâs all this? Get them inside. This big fuss scared me!â Feng Xingtai said with a stern face.
âAlright, alright, everyone back to work.â Feng Yu waved his hand and then ran over, leading his mother inside.
âMom, you havenât been to this company before, right? Look, such a large warehouse, all ours. The upstairs is nicely decorated with offices, a meeting room, a canteen, and employee dormitoriesâŠâ
Feng Xingtai pulled Feng Yuâs hand and whispered, âWhereâs the toilet?â
âAh? Over there, in that corner. This warehouse area only has a toilet for us. You pull the rope to flush.â
Before Feng Yu could finish, his parents quickly rushed to the toilet. A minute later, they came out, looking refreshed. It turned out they had been holding it in all the way!
âDad, Mom, what did you think of that welcome? Did you feel like the center of attention?â Feng Yu asked with a grin.
âWhat center of attention? Do you know why your father and I came? You keep saying youâre making money. How much have you made? Speak up.â Zhang Muhua glared at Feng Yu. Li Shiqiang had told them on the way that the company had bought three cars, costing over ten thousand yuan. This wasteful child! Ten thousand yuan could buy three large houses in Bingcheng.
Feng Yu leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and started to shake them smugly.
Feng Xingtai slapped the back of Feng Yuâs head, âStop shaking and speak!â
Feng Yu looked at his mother with an innocent expression, âMom, Dad hit me~~â
âYou deserve it. When I ask you a question, you dilly-dally. Look at Little Li, how straightforward he is.â
Li Shiqiang chuckled, âUncle, Aunt, Little Yu is very capable. The company has made a lot of money!â
Just as Feng Yu was about to show off, he saw his fatherâs hand about to strike again and quickly said, âThe company has made over a million!â
Feng Yuâs head was hit again!
âDad, why did you hit me again?â Feng Yu asked, sounding aggrieved.
âHow many times have I told you not to lie? You still dare to lie to my face! How long has this company been running? You say itâs made over a million? Do you know how much a million is?â
Feng Yu shot up, his face filled with indignation, âWhoâs lying? Ask Li Brother, has the company made this much money?â
Fengâs parents looked at Li Shiqiang, who nodded vigorously, âUncle, Aunt, the company really has made over a million!â
âWhat? Over a million?!â Feng Xingtaiâs voice rose but quickly dropped. There were still outsiders in the warehouse, and they couldnât let them hear.
âYes, really over a million. The orders are signed, and weâll get the first payment in a few days. In half a month, all the money will be in the account! Dad, Mom, if thereâs anything you want to buy, just say it, and weâll go buy it!â
âSon, you havenât done anything illegal, have you? Listen to Mom, we canât do anything illegal!â Zhang Muhua said, her voice trembling.
âMom~~ What are you thinking? Your son is a genius, and thereâs plenty of legitimate money to be made. Why would I do anything illegal? If you donât believe me, ask Li Brother. The money the company has made is absolutely clean!â Feng Yu added silently, except for the money from the base brother.
Li Shiqiang vouched for Feng Yu again, and Fengâs parents finally believed him.
Feng Yu thought, âThatâs not right. Iâm the son, and Li Brother is just the future son-in-law. Why donât my parents believe me but believe Li Brother? Was I picked up from a garbage can?â
âNow that you mention it, your father and I do want to buy something. Letâs get an electric fan, the Fengyu brand. I heard itâs cheap and good. Old Zhao from our team, his son brought one back from Bingcheng.â Zhang Muhua said.
âMom, the Fengyu brand electric fan is made by our company. Each employee got two, and we made the money from selling these fans!â Feng Yu explained.
Feng Yuâs head was hit again!
âYour own company, and you didnât even bring one home!â
âDad, can we talk without hitting each other?â PS: Since Feng Yu got hit, could you give me some more recommendation votes? I think we can still push the book up the new book chart! PS2: Itâs the weekend, and Iâve decided to update three times. The first update will be at midnight, and the other two will be at the usual times. Iâm asking for more collections, recommendations, and donations~~~
