In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 422 Qin Yourong's Fury

With nearly 100,000 yuan in capital, Yu Dawei's mind started working again, and he prepared to put the matter of buying and refurbishing used cars on the agenda ahead of schedule.

However, Yu Dawei also set a limit for Lao Ji and others: the total cost of acquiring, repairing, and refurbishing vehicles cannot exceed 20,000 yuan. If they want to continue, they can only use this 20,000 yuan to snowball their business.

It's not that Yu Dawei is stingy; he also needs to collect vehicles. His next plan is to collect construction machinery parts to expand his meager resources.

Of course, this is all on the premise that the factory doesn't cause him any trouble and there are no accidents on the construction site, otherwise he might not be able to handle both.

As things stand, everything is proceeding smoothly.

Yu Dawei plans to observe for another half month. If there are no major problems with the factory, parts, or the cars he maintains within that time, he will then begin preparing to officially embark on the journey of collecting the cars.

With his skills, the possibility of being scammed when buying a car is nonexistent. As long as this risk is avoided, it's basically the same as an experienced expert going to the antique market – you can pick out any good stuff you want.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you have the luck to hit the jackpot.

After arranging things at the factory, Yu Dawei planned to drive to several car maintenance sites to check on things and deliver some gifts to the leaders there.

I imagine many junior managers on the construction site must be complaining about not being there to supervise the work for so long.

Before leaving, Yu Dawei made a special trip to see the parts department managed by Dafeng.

Currently, besides stacks of cardboard boxes, the parts department only has an empty glass counter at the entrance, and even the shelves on both walls are not stocked with goods.

When I entered, I saw Dafeng alone, checking the goods against a list and putting them on the shelves.

Upon seeing Yu Dawei enter, he simply greeted him and then lowered his head to continue his work.

“If you can’t manage by yourself, ask anyone in the yard who’s free to come and help. Don’t be shy or hesitant to ask.” Yu Dawei stood in front of the counter, looking at Da Feng inside with sweat soaking her forehead and said with some concern.

He then opened the small wooden door next to him, walked to the shelf inside the counter, and began to help Da Feng arrange the goods.

“Brother, I can manage on my own. You have no idea how rusty I’ve been staying at home all this time. It’s good to get some work done and work up a sweat.” Da Feng smiled at Yu Dawei. “Besides, it’s best to do the stacking work myself. On the one hand, I can quickly familiarize myself with the parts and components so I can easily access them. On the other hand, it can also reinforce my memory.”

Yu Dawei didn't say anything, but judging from Dafeng's enthusiasm, it couldn't be fake. It's just that the old man had secretly told him about it a couple of days ago.

There were always a few gossipy women in the village who talked behind Da Feng's back about how she was too old to get married and didn't work. Once, her mother saw Da Feng secretly hiding in the barn and wiping away tears.

Hearing the old man say this, Yu Dawei could probably imagine that Da Feng had been having a very hard time in the village recently. Being able to come here and have her own job, without being pointed at and talked about by others, must be one of the reasons why she was happy.

"I'll say it again, don't be too hasty. You're the manager of Youwei Parts Store now, so you need to have a big picture perspective." Yu Dawei said to his sister as he helped her pack the goods, repeating what he had told her at noon that day.

"For now, don't worry about making money or expanding your customer base or distribution channels outside the factory. Just think of yourself as the owner of this shop. First, familiarize yourself with all the spare parts and what they are used for, and then we can talk about that."

"The customers in the factory are enough for you to live on for a while. As for developing customers outside the factory, or even developing downstream distributors later, don't worry, I will cooperate with you, and we can take it slowly."

Yu Dawei's attitude towards his sister has far surpassed that of his previous life. If it were him in his previous life, he would hardly have had the patience to patiently advise Dafeng on how to do things.

Because the arrangements are not specific and lack direction, your subordinates cannot receive effective information to assign tasks and carry them out.

This was a mistake Yu Dawei made in his past business dealings.

Da Feng was new to this industry, and Yu Dawei was not quite sure what it meant to do business.

That's why he told Da Feng about many things in great detail, thus preventing the city channel agency he had worked so hard to obtain from being destroyed in the end.

This is one of the reasons why Yu Dawei observed the factory for half a month before taking over the next step of collecting vehicles.

Are you mentally exhausted? A little, but once the parts issue is on track and Taihou can stand on her own, it will all be worth it.

Da Feng has a photographic memory, and Yu Dawei still believes that opening a small shop won't be a problem for her; she'll definitely pick it up quickly.
After giving his instructions, Yu Dawei chatted briefly with Dafeng before leaving.

Because the parts department's warehouse is quite large, enough to partition off another single room for Da Feng to live in, but Yu Dawei doesn't have the energy to deal with that right now, so he can only find a spring bed for his sister to make do for now.

Old-fashioned spring mattresses were very popular in the 1980s and 90s, and could even be considered high-end products, at least for working-class people.

Some of the workers used wooden plank beds, two iron frames joined together and then seamlessly connected with wooden planks in the middle. Yu Dawei first got a spring bed and also bought Da Feng a new set of toiletries, all red, including the washbasin, symbolizing a fresh start.

As for the issue of partitions, Yu Dawei has already contacted someone, but it will take another day or two to get it done.

Because the partitioned area was located at the very back of the warehouse, near the south side of the factory, he simply arranged for the workers to open a door at the back of the parts warehouse and also add a window.

The warehouse is made of corrugated steel, and it would be unbearable for people to live inside during the hottest summer months.

After everything was arranged, Yu Dawei finally felt relieved and drove away.

He also needs to visit various construction sites to check on the excavators and road rollers and to get a sense of the recent situation.

Qingcheng, a trading company in Jiulongda Auto Parts City.

"You saw him bring back two truckloads of goods with your own eyes? Did you see clearly what kind of goods they were?" On the second floor of the trading company, Qin Yourong leaned against the desk, arms crossed, smoking a thin cigarette.

Her current image is completely different from what she saw in the jewelry store last year. She is now heavily made up, has thick wavy hair, and wears daring clothes that are both form-fitting and revealing, showcasing all the most attractive aspects of a woman.

"No, not at all. Manager Qin, as you know, my little parts shop is now a mortal enemy of Yu Dawei's repair shop, and even more so of Boss Liang's Hongwei Parts Shop, so I have no intention of making trouble for myself." A skinny man with triangular eyes next to her stared intently at Qin Yourong's extremely charming figure.

The greed in his eyes was almost blatant!

"Boss Hao, why don't you go back and find out more for me, and see what tricks Yu Dawei is up to?" Qin Yourong winked playfully at him. "Otherwise, I'm supplying you with these parts at a loss, and you can't even find out a single useful piece of information. Then I'll reconsider charging you for the parts at the original price."

Boss Hao's triangular eyes immediately regained some clarity. Nothing was more important than profit. Because Qin Yourong gave him parts at a low price, he was able to do well in Luhe Town and even the county town, and some people even bought goods from him.

This not only made him money, but also greatly satisfied his vanity. He transitioned from agricultural machinery parts to engineering parts such as automobiles, and he was even more successful than Boss Liang!

If the other party were to raise the price again, everything he had gained would be lost, which was something he absolutely could not tolerate.

"Don't worry, Manager Qin, I'll investigate and find out what happened, and I'll call you right away!" Boss Hao quickly pledged his loyalty.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Hao." Qin Yourong winked playfully at him again.

This immediately made the man in his thirties or forties lose control, but fortunately, he was already of a certain age and no longer young, so he didn't lose his mind.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the former owner of agricultural machinery parts in Luhe Town turned around, went downstairs, loaded a truck full of small boxes, and left.

Qin Yourong stood by the second-floor window, watching Boss Hao leave. The smile on her face vanished, and the anger in her heart could no longer be suppressed. She turned around and pushed the things on the table next to her to the ground!
"Useless trash! All you know is how to ask for benefits, you don't do any real work! The people of Luhe Town are all bad! Don't let me catch you and kill you!" Qin Yourong was no longer the calm and composed female boss she once was; her hair was disheveled and she looked like a complete madwoman.

"And you, Yu Dawei, someone like you doesn't even deserve to run a factory! Smart, capable, powerful... Hah." Qin Yourong felt disgusted just thinking about how Boss Liang had praised Yu Dawei in front of her!
If it weren't for Yu Dawei, he wouldn't have been thrown away like a stinky rag. Qin Yourong is determined to regain her former dignity in front of them! Anyone who bullies her will be repaid a hundredfold!
Thinking of this, Qin Yourong walked to another corner of the table, picked up the red phone, and skillfully pressed a few transparent buttons.

As soon as the call connected, Qin Yourong sat on the table with one of her pert buttocks, a fake smile returning to her face, her voice deliberately trembling: "Hey, what are you busy with, Brother Jing? I miss you."

"What else could I be thinking? What do you think?" Qin Yourong said shyly, her index finger twirling the telephone cord. Her voice was a few decibels lower. "It's been several days. Tell me, have you forgotten about your beloved?"

When Qin Yourong heard the person on the other end of the phone talking about being with his wife and children again, his originally shy face suddenly became extremely distorted, like a ferocious ghost.

"Since you're so family-oriented, then you should spend more time with your wife!" Qin Yourong then slammed down the phone.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it!!!"

Not long after, Qin Yourong started roaring like a madwoman again on the second floor.

The people working on the first floor were already used to it. Don't be fooled by how charming and demure Manager Qin appeared to outsiders; deep down, she was a madwoman.

The workers downstairs were afraid that if the other party was unhappy, they would take their anger out on them, so they rarely spoke while working.

Hearing the angry roar coming from upstairs again, the group exchanged glances, chose to remain silent and continue working, and subconsciously moved from inside the house to outside.
