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

Chapter 633 Inspecting the mine loader, Mine Manager Zhao underestimated him!

Yu Dawei spent about ten minutes presenting his ideas, while Huang Linlin listened quietly from the side.

As for how Huang Linlin improves his ideas, or even how to open the store, that's not Yu Dawei's responsibility.

That's how it was back in high school. Yu Da often had some wildly imaginative ideas, or sudden thoughts.

Although it sounds incredibly unreliable at first glance, both Huang Linlin and the two strategists beside Yu Dawei were able to help Yu Dawei revise the plan and ultimately successfully implement it.

This is the tacit understanding between close friends.

Later in his life, Yu Dawei never met any friends like the three of them, so when he shared his wild ideas with others, everyone thought he was just bragging, including his family and parents.

After their conversation, Yu Dawei drove his eldest son back to his aunt's house. However, he didn't expect to receive a call from Ai Yongqiang on the way, saying that Meng Kai was at Ai Yongqiang's house and asking him to take his son home and come back.

Yu Dawei didn't understand how these two people had gotten together again, but he didn't refuse. After sending Yu Muyu to his aunt's house, he went straight to Ai Yongqiang's house.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw Ai Yongqiang and Meng Kai sitting on the sofa with worried faces. There were peanuts and leftover liquor on the coffee table. It seemed that these two drunkards hadn't had enough to drink yet?

Yu Dawei discovered that Ai Yongqiang's parents were also awake. Looking at the clock, which was almost midnight, he had no choice but to pull the two of them away.

He knew that Ai Yongqiang's mother suffered from neurasthenia for many years, and now, seeing the murderous look in his mother's eyes, he couldn't even drink properly at his house.

"Brother, where are you taking us?" Ai Yongqiang asked, sitting in the passenger seat with a bottle of liquor in his arms.

"Hehe, let's find a place where you two drunkards can drink." Yu Dawei glanced at Ai Yongqiang and Meng Kai in the back seat and laughed speechlessly. "Have you two become such terrifying drinkers now? You two drank three bottles of a case of baijiu, and there are still two cases of beer left."

"No, it's Lao Meng." Ai Yongqiang patted his chest and then gestured towards the back seat with his lip.

Yu Dawei instantly understood. Recalling that farcical incident, he suddenly found it somewhat amusing. He decided to find an opportunity to speak with Meng Kai tonight. He realized that this guy had truly never forgotten Huang Linlin all these years.

Not long after, Yu Dawei drove the car to the villa he had bought, then used the remote key to open the garage roller shutter door. The three of them then went from the basement of the garage on the first floor to the living room on the first floor.

At this time, the villa had nothing inside except for the finely decorated hard furnishings; there were no sofas or stools.

Yu Dawei found a few old rags in the car and some old newspapers in the house. He spread them on the ground and took out a simple charcoal stove from the car. It was his uncle's fishing stove, which he had left in the car last time. It would be good to warm the house a little.

They cracked open a window on the first floor, and a few people drank in these harsh conditions.

Yu Dawei, who is sensitive to the cold, also took a couple of bites.

"Brother, how much money have you made over the years? You even bought a villa." Ai Yongqiang looked at the spacious layout of the villa, feeling both envious and impressed.

"I just opened a repair shop and kept some construction vehicles. In the past two years, I've also expanded into overseas markets." Yu Dawei explained how he bought old equipment from Japan as scrap metal and brought it back to China, and how he had a complete industrial chain for refurbishing and selling it in China. Meng Kai and Ai Yongqiang were stunned.

I never knew engineering equipment could be used like this!
"Big brother, why don't you take us under your wing?" Ai Yongqiang's eyes were full of stars.

"Huh?" Yu Dawei was more surprised today than in all the years combined. "Weren't you two doing very well abroad? Why did you suddenly decide to come with me?"

“Sigh, it’s not as good as you think. It’s okay to bring money from abroad to spend in China, since there’s an exchange rate. But we also have to eat, wear, and use the money abroad. In fact, we can’t save much money in a year.” Ai Yongqiang sighed. “Besides, we both promised our fourth brother that if she opens a shop, we will definitely help her out.”

“Yes, actually I went to see Ai Yongqiang because of money.” Meng Kai nodded. “If I don’t use the money to help my parents immigrate, I can still have some money, but I still hope that there are more ways to make money abroad. That way, even if Linlin’s business fails, we can help her support it.”

"Clap clap clap!" Yu Dawei couldn't help but clap. "Warm guy, I never realized it before, but now I know that among us, you are the best to Huang Linlin."

"Actually, it's not just for Linlin. I also have a wife and children abroad, and I want to earn more money so I can buy a bigger house overseas." Ai Yongqiang smiled bitterly. "It all stems from a lack of ability."

"Understood! Let's discuss this further." Yu Dawei was quite happy. Meng Kai and Ai Yongqiang wanted to join the overseas business expansion, as he was also worried about not having any connections overseas.

Although these two individuals are based in California and Australia respectively, and neither has any American connections, the main models sold in these two markets are American Caterpillar series and Eastern European Volvo series.

If the machines for these two models can be indirectly acquired, the profit margin will only be higher, not lower.

Subsequently, Yu Dawei gave a detailed explanation of his current business segments, focusing on how overseas markets can bring value to his company.

Meng Kai and Ai Yongqiang listened with great interest, and not only that, they also offered constructive suggestions to Yu Dawei from time to time, constantly refining Yu Dawei's very rough plan.

Just like the nights before a high school sports meet, the three of them got more and more excited as they talked, until the next morning.

Mulun River, my aunt's house.

When Yu Dawei returned, there was no sign of sleepiness in his eyes; in fact, he looked radiant.

When the old aunt saw Yu Dawei like this, she thought he had slept somewhere for a night before coming back.

Little did they know that it was only because of Meng Kai and Ai Yongqiang that Yu Dawei restructured his "old machinery recycling" business in overseas markets.

The three of them did a simple calculation and concluded that if things went well, they could not only open up the markets in Eastern Europe and the United States, but also have the capital to create their own R&D team in the future. While studying old and scrapped foreign models, they could continuously develop domestic construction machinery and potentially create a machinery brand in the future.

If Yu Dawei's idea of ​​creating a brand was nothing more than a wild and unrealistic fantasy to everyone before, now that idea has a slight possibility of being realized, although there is still a long way to go.

After all, Yu Dawei came from an ordinary background, and frankly, his ability to manage a business couldn't compare to his second uncle's, let alone that of a boss of a large factory like Lingong. "Have you had breakfast? Your uncle and Yu Dafu have both gone out; they just finished eating and left," the aunt said.

"Not yet, I'll take a bite and then head to the open-pit mine." Yu Dawei hadn't forgotten the task his uncle had given him. "Uncle's going to work, but what's Dafu doing?"

"What else could he be doing? He must have gone to see his cronies." The old aunt's expression was full of disgust.

Yu Dawei also knew that his aunt didn't want Dafu to hang out with the local hooligans. Unlike ambitious young people like Meng Kai and Ai Yongqiang, most of Dafu's friends were uneducated, and when Dafu got into trouble, they all ran away very quickly.

There's really no need to make friends with them.

"You didn't stop him from ordering?" Yu Dawei sat at the table and took a sip of millet porridge.

"Why didn't we stop him? But this kid was determined to go and see these people." The old aunt didn't want to say anything more, and she took Xiao Muyu and prepared to go out. "I'm going to Er Yan's house. If you come back at noon, come over too. We'll have lunch there."

"Alright!" Yu Dawei glanced at his eldest son. "Stay close to your great-aunt, don't be too playful, and don't fall behind on your homework, your mother will check when she gets home."

"Okay!" Yu Muyu nodded seriously.

After eating a bite, Yu Dawei didn't rest and drove straight to the Xigou open-pit mine.

At that time, the open-pit mines in the northern part of the country were still quite shabby. The entire mine was surrounded by simple wire mesh, and the gate was blocked by a sliding iron railing.

When Yu Dawei arrived, the gatekeeper was not there. It took a long time for the gatekeeper to return, and then he went to the mine's office building. By the time Yu Dawei was finally able to drive in, almost half an hour had passed.

He even took a nap in the car.

After parking his car on the concrete ground outside the office building, Yu Dawei took out a set of winter work clothes from the car and headed straight into the office building.

On the third floor, Zhao Jianguo was signing a purchase list when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. He guessed it must be Xiao Wang's nephew, Yu Dawei.

He immediately put down his work, looked up and called out towards the door, "Come in."

"Hello, Manager Zhao, I am Yu Dawei." After pushing open the iron gate and walking in, Yu Dawei reached behind his back and gently closed the gate again.

"Hello, Xiao Yu!" Zhao Jianguo gestured to the person across his table. "Please sit down. I heard from Wang that you own a repair shop back in your hometown?"

Actually, he didn't take Xiao Wang's introduction of his nephew to repair cars too seriously. After all, no matter how skilled a self-taught mechanic is, he can't compare to the mechanics who graduated from professional schools.

So when Yu Dawei arrived, he didn't send anyone to meet him; instead, he invited him directly to his office.

Firstly, because of Xiao Wang, and secondly, because they wanted to find out more about this young man.

He wasn't afraid of fixing the car; he was afraid of making the already broken car even worse, which would increase the difficulty of repairs and make it even harder to fix later.

“Yes, I have a repair shop in my hometown of Sui City, which specializes in repairing special machinery, but of course we also repair some small cars and agricultural machinery.” Yu Dawei walked to the table and slowly sat down in the black leather chair.

He could sense that the person in front of him had reservations about his skills; he knew this all too well.

In his past life, when he was getting projects from various government agencies, they were skeptical of him, a self-taught repairman. If it weren't for his uncle's strong support in Mulunhe, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to start his own company and win repair projects.

"Special machinery?" Zhao Jianguo was puzzled by Yu Dawei's words. "Does your area need a lot of special machinery?"

Zhao Jianguo was well aware that crushers, excavators, and mining vehicles all belonged to the category of special machinery.

That's why he was so surprised. Could it be that Xiaoyu's hometown also has mines?
“In recent years, the number of domestic projects has increased, and our local area has also benefited from this, with a considerable number of projects. So, for machines like excavators, road rollers, and bulldozers, our factory basically has customers coming in for repairs every day,” Yu Dawei explained.

"I see." Hearing Yu Dawei's explanation, Zhao Jianguo felt reassured. At least it meant that Xiao Wang hadn't just randomly recommended him. He then took out a stack of documents from his drawer and handed them to Yu Dawei. "These are the instruction manual and documents for that Volvo loader. You can study them first before you go and check out the machine."

After all, it was Wang who introduced them, so we can't embarrass him. At the very least, we can't let Yu Dawei look like he doesn't know anything, otherwise, if the people below keep spreading the word, it will give Wang a bad reputation.

To Zhao Jianguo's surprise, Yu Dawei only glanced at the document twice before closing it: "Director Zhao, to be honest, I've repaired a Volvo L350 before, and I can come over and take a look anytime."

"You've repaired them before? Okay then." Although Zhao Jianguo was also surprised that Yu Dawei had experience with this kind of mining vehicle, since the other party was so certain, he wouldn't stop him any further. He then picked up the phone and dialed, "Xiao Liang, come over here."

A young man in blue overalls walked in shortly after: "Boss, you wanted to see me?"

"Okay, go take Master Yu to check on that broken loader." Zhao Jianguo glanced at Yu Dawei, then instructed the worker who came in, "If Master Yu needs any tools, go to the repair shop and get them. Remember to return them later."

"Yes, sir." Xiao Liang nodded, then turned to Yu Dawei, "Master Yu, let's go."

“Okay.” Yu Dawei stood up, nodded to Zhao Jianguo, and then left with Xiao Liang.

As Zhao Jianguo watched the two leave, he took off his glasses and skillfully pressed the corners of his eyes a few times to relieve fatigue.

Honestly, he still doesn't think this mechanic, Mr. Xiao, can fix the problem on that car. Firstly, he has never had a high opinion of unlicensed mechanics. Even if they open a repair shop, it only means they know how to do business, but who can say for sure how skilled they are?

Furthermore, a young man in his thirties is still far behind a skilled technician in his fifties or sixties in terms of technical ability; this is a real issue of experience gap.
