After Ran Qiuye learned about Sha Zhu's way of dealing with the fat man, he was quite surprised. At the same time, he also sincerely agreed with Sha Zhu's changes.

A few days later, when the couple went back to Ran's old house to visit Ran Qiuye's mother, Ran Qiuye told Ran's mother about the matter. Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the old lady gave Silly Zhu high praise.

"It seems that I underestimated Zhuzi before!" Ran's mother, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said with emotion.

Although Ran's mother was not very old, her health was not very good due to what she had experienced in the past few years. Mr. Ran was even seriously ill when he left. After a trip to the gate of hell, he almost died, although he was saved. When I came back, half of my body was paralyzed and I could only sit in a wheelchair. I had to be waited on even when I pooped and peeed.

Ran Qiuye nodded with deep understanding and said: "He has indeed changed a lot in these years. If this had been put in the past, with his temper at that time, this matter would definitely not be solved so easily."

Ran's mother looked at Ran Qiuye and said with some emotion: "The world is full of troubles. Speaking of which, when you first talked about a date with him, your father and I were not very happy. Even after you two got married, I and you Dad is also worried that you will be wronged if you get married.

Now it seems that it is our villain's heart that saves the gentleman's belly.

Zhuzi is a man of integrity, kindness, and kindness. If he has changed like this now, he may not be able to do a great job in the future. It is your blessing to marry him, so cherish it. "

Ran's mother spoke with sincerity, and her voice and demeanor were full of expectations for her daughter's bright future.

Ran Qiuye massaged the acupuncture points on her mother's legs, hoping to awaken the consciousness of the paralyzed half of her mother's body through stimulation, but unfortunately there was no substantial effect.

"Mom, don't worry. I know everything you said. I don't want him to have any career. I just hope that our family will be healthy and safe."

Ran's mother said: "Zhuzhu's craftsmanship is second to none, but the only difference is his temper. He is too upright and fiery, and there is no sand in his eyes. But that was all in the past. Let's just see how he handles the fat man's matter this time. , you know he is a person who does great things.”

"Can this be seen?" Ran Qiuye asked.

Ran's mother smiled and said: "From ancient times to the present, those who have achieved great things are those who have a tough temperament and can endure what ordinary people cannot."

The Ran family comes from a scholarly family, and Ran's mother was a lady when she was young. She read a lot of poetry and studied Western education. She also worked hard in Nanyang with Ran's father for many years. She has her own ability to recognize people. At first, the old couple just looked at Silly Zhu as a person. He was upright and kind-hearted, so he married his daughter.

The Ran family has a long history of learning. Although Ran Qiuye is not very knowledgeable, he is somewhat insightful. Naturally, he knows the examples mentioned by Ran's mother.

"He is just a cook. He knows nothing but cooking!" Although Ran Qiuye was modest, the smile on her face revealed what she was really thinking deep in her heart at this moment.

To say that Shazhu's temperament really didn't change in a day or two, or in a year or two.

Time passed day by day, but the business of the Peony Building was still booming, and every seat was packed every day. Silly Zhu and his disciples were so busy every day that they wished they could sleep in the Peony Building at night.

Time flies and it’s midsummer of [-].

Xu Damao's job of showing movies has long been gone. Now he is assigned to the front as a ticket collector, and his salary has naturally been reduced. There is no extra money. In the early years, Lou Xiao'e had already given away the gold jewelry at home. Xu Damao Although he discovered that something was missing, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only swallow the knocked out tooth.

In addition to work, his wife's stomach has been silent for many years, which has become a worry for Xu Damao. He has only married one daughter-in-law from beginning to end, and Xu Damao can still blame his daughter-in-law.

But after experiencing Lou Xiao'e, Yu Haitang, and now this one, it's impossible for each of them not to happen. Rumors about Xu Damao having health problems and being unable to have children have already spread throughout the hospital.

Especially in the past few years, Xu Damao offended everyone in the courtyard, almost like a rat crossing the street. Everyone shouted and beat him, and people were naturally happy to expose his scars and poke his sore spots.

But Xu Damao is not the kind of person who sticks to the rules and waits for death. The job in the movie theater is not easy to do, the salary is low, and the originally comfortable life at home suddenly becomes difficult. Xu Damao can't bear this.

As the old saying goes: It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Although Xu Damao is full of bad ideas, it has to be said that this kid has strong mobility and quick thinking. As soon as the policies are improved, self-employed people are vying to take the lead, and people's living standards are gradually improving, Xu Damao will also take action. After thinking about it, I tidied up neatly all day long, with hair wax still on my hair. I left early in the morning and came back late at night with a leather briefcase on my shoulder. I didn’t know what I was doing.

With the passage of time, Peony House's business has already entered a stage of steady development. However, in just over a year, not only did the three people earn back the capital they originally invested, but there is still a lot left over.

Wang Zhong then suggested that He Yuyu buy the property rights of the restaurant.

He Yuyu always attached great importance to Wang Zhong's suggestions and took action immediately.

On the other side, Wang Zhong's work in the steel rolling mill encountered bottlenecks. The scarcity of talents, insufficient financial support, his own technical limitations, and various problems emerged one after another.

That day, just after get off work, Wang Zhong was not in a hurry to go home. Instead, he rode to a cafe.

"Here you go, sit down quickly. What would you like to drink?" Lou Xiao'e had been waiting in the cafe for a long time. When she saw Wang Zhong come in, she took the initiative to say hello.

Wang Zhong smiled slightly and said: "I'm not used to drinking coffee, just give me a cup of boiled water."

"Sorry, I don't know." Lou Xiao'e obviously did not expect this.

"It doesn't matter." Wang Zhong said straight to the point: "Is there something wrong with you suddenly looking for me?"

"You are still so direct." Lou Xiao'e said.

Wang Zhong said: "Just order it directly to avoid wasting time."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said, "I heard that the two projects you led have encountered bottlenecks?"

Wang Zhong looked at Lou Xiao'e: "You are well-informed!"

Lou Xiao'e grinned: "Businessmen rely on poor information."

"If you have anything to do, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall. If you have anything to do, just tell me!" Wang Zhong said.

Lou Xiao'e smiled again and said: "I plan to build a range hood factory in Shenzhen, produce and sell them myself, and no longer cooperate with the steel rolling mill."

Wang Zhong asked curiously: "Why do you suddenly have such an idea?"

Lou Xiao'e said: "I won't hide it from you. The profit of cooperation with the steel rolling mill is too low, and the technical content of the range hood is not high, is it?"

Since meeting Wang Zhong last time, Lou Xiao'e has signed an order with the steel rolling mill through her previous relationship with the Lou family, and has become one of the dealers of range hoods.

"And the policies in Shencheng are much better than those in Beiping!"

"Then you're looking for me?" Wang Zhong asked.

Lou Xiao'e said: "I want to cooperate with you!"

"Cooperation?" Wang Zhong was not surprised at all. He had always been responsible for the range hood project in the steel rolling mill. It was not surprising that Lou Xiao'e was targeting him.

"What kind of cooperation law?" Lou Xiao'e said: "You and I both know what the situation is in the steel rolling mill. If it weren't for the two projects of range hoods and agricultural machinery under your control, we would have been unable to make ends meet."

"At least you're not living beyond your means now, right?" Wang Zhong said with a smile.

"Having said that, how long can we last?" Lou Xiao'e said.

Wang Zhong looked at Lou Xiao'e and said, "Why do you think the steel rolling mill won't last long?"

Lou Xiao'e said: "Isn't it?"

"Whether it is a range hood or agricultural machinery, they are just incidental projects. The real function of the steel rolling mill is steel processing. Director Liu is upright and wants to run the steel rolling mill well. It is indeed worthy of admiration. But the steel rolling mill is under Li Huaide and others. It’s been in the hands of a bunch of people for too long, and it’s rotten from the root.”

Regarding the historical issues left by Li Huaide and others, they are still like maggots in the tarsus. Although the middle and upper-level leaders of Li Huaide's line have been purged, in the past ten years, with the retirement of the older generation of workers, new entrants have entered the scene. The workers are busy participating in various activities and do not really spend much time on work. Naturally, their skills cannot keep up with those of experienced masters.

If it were not supported by the profits from the two projects of agricultural machinery and range hoods, the steel rolling mill would have been unable to make ends meet as Lou Xiao'e said.

The problem facing the steel rolling mill now is that if it only relies on processing steel, it will not be able to support so many people. However, if most of the energy and efforts are devoted to the research and development of agricultural machinery and range hoods, it will not be the same as the steel rolling mill. The functions are far different.

Moreover, although the profits from agricultural machinery and range hoods are not low, it is not a long-term solution to rely on this profit alone to support the factory. The research and development of new products and the upgrading of machines require a large amount of money in all aspects, and the steel rolling mill is now the most What is lacking is funds.

Moreover, the steel rolling mill is a state-owned unit. When making some major decisions, it needs to be reported and approved by the directly subordinate departments above.

It can be said that today's steel rolling mills have reached a fork in the road, either rising from the ashes or gradually declining.

How could Wang Zhong not see things that even Lou Xiao'e could see.

But Wang Zhong still declined Lou Xiao'e politely: "Shencheng is too far, and I have no plans to leave Peiping yet."

Lou Xiao'e didn't want to give up easily, because she knew in her heart the value that talents like Wang Zhong could bring: "Don't think about it anymore? I can give you shares."

Wang Zhong said: "Okay, don't waste your efforts!"

"Then let's change the approach!" Lou Xiao'e said again.

Wang Zhong said: "Tell me about it."

Lou Xiao'e said: "How about you help me design a range hood?"

Wang Zhong laughed dumbly: "Speaking of Lou Xiao'e, should I say that you are too smart or too stupid? Now the steel rolling mill only makes money with range hoods and agricultural machinery. You asked me to design a range hood for you, which is similar to that of our factory. Fight in the ring?"

"Then what do you want to do before you are willing to help me?" Lou Xiao'e said.

Wang Zhongdao: "Actually, I don't think you have to squeeze into the range hood market. You might as well change your mind and do something else."

"Doing something else?" Lou Xiao'e frowned and asked doubtfully.

Wang Zhongdao: "You just want to make money. Things like range hoods and agricultural machinery require a certain level of technical content, talent reserves, and a large amount of original capital investment. I advise you not to touch them yet."

"What else can we do instead of making range hoods?" Lou Xiao'e asked again.

The Lou family now has a processing plant in Shenzhen, which also processes steel. After all, the steel rolling mill itself belongs to the Lou family. Returning to the old line of work will be familiar to the Lou family.

Wang Zhongdao: "In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, our ancestors have long told us that it is easy to make money in those industries."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes lit up: "You mean to open a garment factory?"

Wang Zhongdao: "In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, 'clothing' is the first one. Now that the policies are getting better and better, people's lives will definitely get better and better, and they will have more and more money in their hands. After satisfying their food and clothing, they will begin to pursue the quality of life." .”

"But I have never been in this industry before, and I don't know the ropes." Lou Xiao'e said.

Wang Zhongdao: "You don't understand, but I understand. Let's cooperate. Each of us has half of the capital and half of the shares. You are responsible for the operation, and I am responsible for making suggestions and providing business ideas, design concepts, and sales methods."

"Wait a minute!" Lou Xiao'e suddenly reacted: "Didn't I come to ask you to cooperate with me in opening a factory? Why is the situation reversed now?"

Wang Zhong smiled and said, "Is there any difference?"

"Of course there is a difference!" Lou Xiao'e said seriously.

Wang Zhong picked up the water cup, drank the cooled boiled water in one gulp, stood up and said, "My wife and children are still at home waiting for me to eat. You should think about it slowly and give me a call when you think about it."

With that said, he left the cafe, leaving Lou Xiaoe alone at the table and deep in thought.

The next day, Wang Zhong received a call from Lou Xiaoe asking to meet.

Taking advantage of the lunch break, Wang Zhong took time out of the factory and met Lou Xiao'e in a small restaurant.

"Tell me in detail, what are your plans for the garment factory?" Lou Xiao'e finally figured it out. Wang Zhong must have thought about it early in the morning, and had already made up his mind. It was just his performance yesterday that Being too anxious made me fall into passivity.

"Didn't we make it clear yesterday? You and I will each contribute half of the capital. You will be responsible for the operation and management, and I will be responsible for making suggestions. The shares will also be divided equally."

"Then why should I cooperate with you? Can't I do it alone?" Lou Xiao'e said bluntly.

Wang Zhongdao: "Business cannot be done without righteousness. If you want to fight alone, that's up to you. I'm just suggesting it."

"I just think that compared to high investment in making range hoods, clothes and shoes, which are relatively low-cost items, they are more suitable for the initial stage of capital accumulation."

Seeing that Wang Zhong was so calm, Lou Xiao'e lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then raised her head, looked at Wang Zhong, and stretched out her hand: "Happy cooperation!"

Wang Zhong also extended his hand: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."

Lou Xiao'e now also has a resolute and decisive personality, and she does what she says. After discussing with Wang Zhong, she immediately took the money and went to Shencheng.

And Wang Zhong also waited for a transfer order.

Old Xu from the Machinery Branch Factory has reached the age of retirement. Old Xu was not ambiguous. Before retiring, he recommended Wang Zhong to his superiors and suggested that Wang Zhong take over his position. For this reason, Old Xu also wrote a special letter to his direct leaders. Yan Ming received a letter and said that compared to the main factory, Wang Zhong was more suitable to stay in the machinery factory.
