Siheyuan's Journey Through the Ages

Chapter 152 A sudden business opportunity
The reason why Ma Qing agreed to Zheng Yumian's request was mainly because he wanted to be more closely tied to the Zheng family, so that he could completely put aside the business affairs of Yaguang Zhisu in the future.

In the future, as long as I come up with some designs from time to time, I can ensure the industry status of Yaguang Zhisu, and also my own status in Yaguang Zhisu. Besides, this is 68 million in 400, so it is hard to say who will get the advantage.

As soon as the two finished talking, Wang Cheng, who had made an appointment with them, arrived, and the two immediately headed towards Ma Qing's target without stopping.

Guanghua Paper Mill, covering an area of ​​21000 square meters and equipped with a complete set of papermaking equipment, is a well-known papermaking enterprise in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, the boss went too far in playing futures. Now the mill is operating normally, but the boss himself is going bankrupt and is anxious to find a buyer to fill the hole. Unfortunately, his peers are pushing the price too hard and he has been unable to make a move.

The boss's surname is Liao, and his given name is Guanghua, which is why the paper mill got its name. "Boss Ma, you have seen my factory, and there is really no problem. The operation is normal, and there is some profit every month. Do you think your price can..."

Ma Qing silently thought that the gambler would not die well, but he said, "Boss Liao, 78 is a fair price. The land of the factory is not valuable, and you know the current market price. I can only give you 78 because the machinery and equipment are complete and the paper mill itself is in good operating condition."

"But, but..." Boss Liao couldn't make any clear explanation for a long time. The price offered by Ma Qing was already 5 yuan higher than that offered by his peers. If he still didn't sell it, then forget it. At worst, he could choose another factory and buy equipment himself. Although it would take some time to retrain the workers and re-establish sales channels... it would only be a little troublesome and not a big deal.

Boss Liao was about to agree when he heard a loud shout, "Wait a minute." Then a fat, big-bellied man trotted over and complained as he ran, "Boss Liao, this is really not fair. You're talking to me about selling the factory while you're looking for someone else."

When Liao Guanghua first heard the voice, he felt annoyed. When he saw the man coming, this feeling reached its peak: "Fatty Ding, what are you doing here? Is the price you gave a human being? I won't sell it."

Liao Guanghua was afraid that the real buyer in front of him would misunderstand, so he quickly explained to Ma Qing: "Boss Ma, don't worry about this person. This Fatty Ding is the boss of Zhanbo Paper Industry. He is my colleague and used to be my friend. But after I got into trouble this time, instead of helping me, he teamed up with other colleagues to buy my factory at a low price. I was really blind."

Liao Guanghua became more and more angry as he spoke, pointing at Fatty Ding and saying, "You loser, I treated you as my friend, but you treated me like this, taking advantage of my misfortune to lower my price and want to buy my factory for 60. You're dreaming. I'm telling you, I'm going to sell this factory. Dream on."

After saying that, he turned around and said, "Boss Ma, don't worry about this person. Guanghua Paper Mill will be sold to you at the price you said."

"No, Brother Liao, Brother Liao, the price is negotiable. Just tell me what price you want to sell it at." Fatty Ding had been planning for half a year, but when he saw that the factory that was about to be acquired was gone, he became anxious and gave in on the price.

"78, do you want it? I won't give it to you, you idiot." Liao Guanghua's mood was completely relaxed the moment he planned to sell the factory to Ma Qing. His debts could finally be resolved, and he could still have tens of thousands of yuan left, and his future life would be settled.

"What, such a high price, who is crazy? Give such a high price, is your factory worth so much money?" Fatty Ding was still trying to be smart at this time, and he said this for Ma Qing to hear.

"Security, security, where are all the people? Get this fat guy out of here." Liao Guanghua was furious. He didn't expect Fatty Ding to play this trick.

Ma Qing certainly knew how much the factory was worth, and Fatty Ding's clumsy rhetoric was of no use to him at all.

"Boss Liao, in this case, we will immediately send an accounting firm to check the accounts. Please cooperate. If everything is OK, we can officially sign the contract next week." Ma Qing had just finished speaking, and Fatty Ding was about to speak, but was chased out by the security guards who came. "No problem, I am more anxious than you about this matter, Boss Ma, don't worry, although I haven't managed the factory recently, our management and employees are all good, you see..." Liao Guanghua wanted to find a meal for his employees.

"I will retain most of them. In fact, one of the reasons why I am willing to pay this price is that this factory has good staffing." Ma Qing changed the subject, "However, while we were discussing business here, that Fatty Ding came and entered the factory. There is a traitor in your factory. Find this person and take him away. I don't want him." Ma Qing reminded.

When Liao Guanghua heard this, his face darkened visibly, and his eyes showed helplessness. "Don't worry, Boss Ma. I will take care of this matter."

After the two men finished discussing the acquisition, when Ma Qing came out of Guanghua Paper Mill, he was stopped by Fatty Ding outside the factory.

"Boss Ma, right? How about we talk? It won't hurt you to talk, right?" Fatty Ding stood beside the car and lowered his head to invite Ma Qing who was in the car.

"Just tell me what you want to say. I'm very busy." Ma Qing looked at Fatty Ding standing outside the car and the two followers with him.

"Boss Ma used to work in the paper industry?"

"No, I'm a novice. What's the matter, Mr. Ding, can I give you some advice?"

"I can't say I can give you any advice. It's just that the paper industry is very complicated, especially the raw materials. It's not easy to deal with."

Fatty Ding said with some pride, "I am not talented, but my Zhanbo Paper is one of the best in Hong Kong. I am the vice president of the Paper Industry Association and I have some say in the industry. Boss Ma, since you have never worked in this industry, why bother to get involved in this mess? If you can't even get the raw materials, then the factory will be opened in vain."

Ma Qing looked at Fatty Ding who was talking eloquently outside the car window and trying his best to show how powerful he was. He thought it was quite funny. I thought you had a gang background, but it turns out you are just a businessman. I am not afraid of the methods of businessmen.

"Ping An, let's go." Ma Qing felt that he had wasted his time and was too lazy to listen to the fat man's chatter.

The fat man's tricks were completely meaningless to Ma Qing, because Ma Qing bought this paper mill mainly for the launch of a new product. It had nothing to do with local paper manufacturers and there would be no overlap in business.

As for raw materials, the Chen family, who is currently the sales agent for Yaguang Zhisu in Southeast Asia, owns large tracts of forest, and pulp export is the Chen family's flagship product.
