I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 74 I'll Remember You (Third Update, Seeking Votes and Follow-Up)
Although he sensed a business opportunity, the owner of the large wine vat shop didn't dare to buy too many. He only got two hundred screws from the agent and then put them on the shelf for two yuan.

Even though the price has gone up again, the enthusiasm of the drinkers remains undiminished, and they still come over every night to have a great time.

They drink less and fight less. They used to spend half of their income on doctor's visits and drinking, but now they save it all.

Not only that, Wang Ma, who is known for getting sleepy as soon as he starts reading, has actually started reading now.

He first read "100 Ways to Win Over Your Sister", then "Being a Good Brother", then "What Tomboys Like", and finally "How to Gently Protect Your Sister".

God knows how he found these books, and he thinks the person who wrote them is definitely going to jail.

Although the client had read many books, the boss was pleased that the book the client ultimately chose was "Why Workers Are So Poor".

This book is the boss's favorite. It explains in detail the reasons for the workers' poverty. The boss loves it because of its simple and easy-to-understand explanations. Unfortunately, no one else has read it.

Sensing the changes in Wang Ma, the boss remarked that the Trapper Type 5 truly lived up to its name.

However, type four is used to trap pests, while type five is used to trap humans.

But let's just say it didn't use bait or not!
He thought he could make a fortune with the Trapper Type 5, but after only five days, the agent told him that the stock was out of stock.

Upon hearing this news, the boss's first reaction was: You're kidding me!

Screws can sell out so easily?
You're probably a toad trying to woo a swan; you're ugly and good-for-nothing.

Just say you want more money!

Anyway, I'm not the one who ends up paying the bill.

Faced with the boss's protest, the agent could only reply with a wry smile, "I can't do anything about it either. I can't believe it either, but that's all they can produce each month. Only one workshop in the entire factory can produce screws, and most of them are still handmade by workers. Two hundred thousand a month is really their limit."

"Then increase production capacity."

“You know Tianyuan well. The lathes are all old brands, and the regional locks prevent them from being upgraded. Anyway, I’ll find someone to coordinate and see if we can go through the recycling process.”

"Thanks a lot."

After hanging up the phone, the boss could only helplessly display the words "out of stock," and looking at the disappointed looks of the others, he secretly touched the screws in his pocket.

Luckily, I was smart and hid some.

Looks like I'm the only one who can play with my factory today.

I never imagined that such a small dream could have such a strong attraction, and we are all just slaves to dreams.

The agent did not break their promise.

Realizing that this was indeed a huge business opportunity, he immediately contacted the factory manager of Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory to discuss increasing production.

"Factory manager, you need to pay attention to the production issue. Two hundred thousand a month sounds like a lot, but when spread out over each day, it's only a little over six thousand. Each Sangmu cultivator won't even get half of that. You need to think of a solution quickly. If all else fails, I can help you get a loan."

The other side remained silent for a long time, so long that the agent thought the other party had hung up.

Finally, after a full fifteen minutes of silence, the other end replied: "You've got it wrong, I'm not the factory manager."

"You're not Zhang Yun?"

"Yes, I am. But I sold the factory some time ago."

Upon hearing this, the agent blurted out, "You're such an idiot! Sorry, I wasn't targeting you, it's just... okay, I am targeting you. Do you have any loopholes in your hand? I have a good lawyer."

"No, he bought out all the rights for 500,000."

"You're incredibly stupid, I've never seen anyone stupider than you!" Zhang Yun remained silent for a long time before hanging up the phone.

He covered his eyes and pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure out how the two young men had come back to life.

Running a factory is tough; if it were easy, a factory wouldn't have been losing money for so long.

Although his own embezzlement and kickbacks were partly to blame, the main issue was that Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory had outdated equipment and backward technology.

Failure has many causes, and it's unfair to always blame yourself.

Thinking about this, he felt he needed to go and see for himself how that place had come to be.

Wearing his own knitted sweater and black cloak, Zhang Yun left the Labor High School and strode towards the agricultural machinery factory.

Instead of calling a taxi, he kept pushing his body to calm down.

Even so, when he saw the bustling Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory, he still felt as if he had been transported to another world.

It's only been a few days, but the place has changed dramatically.

The old wall was torn down, and a new wall began to be built. A group of strangers sat in the yard listening to the explanation, and then learning how to manually screw in screws and how to add activation codes to the inside.

The workers' enthusiasm blossomed wildly here, burning like flames, making Zhang Yun completely unrecognizable.

The workshop was filled with the sounds of impacts as a large number of screws were pulled off the machine tools. Those that fell into the corners were carefully removed and then happily loaded onto the transport vehicles.

Staring at the situation, Zhang Yun fell silent.

He felt a burning pain on his face. All the taunts he had made to Luo Tong and Glasses had now turned into boomerangs, hitting him one after another.

Although his face was burning with shame, he forced himself to walk into his former office.

The workers still recognized him, but they didn't want to acknowledge him.

The fact that they sold the factory is already common knowledge, and their act of sneaking away and running away is despicable.

Even in the idiot's office, his two former confidants didn't give him a good look, but he deserved it.

He walked with difficulty toward his former office and saw his old team leader, Gong Jin, standing at the door, looking at him with a very calm gaze.

He bypassed the other person and continued climbing, when he suddenly heard the old team leader ask, "I don't blame you. What you did was normal for your position. But I'm curious, how did you suddenly become so selfish? You used to be a worker here too!"

Zhang Yun didn't reply, but just kept walking upstairs.

When he finally entered the factory manager's office and saw Luo Tong and Glasses reporting on their work inside, he took a deep breath and solemnly said, "You two have won."

Before Luo Tong could reply, he continued, "But I don't understand! I can see clearly that you're not the kind of people with ingenious ideas. So, who is the mastermind behind you? Someone who could buy all the power and leave me no loopholes is definitely not an ordinary person. Tell me, who did I lose to!"

Looking at the five people in the room, his gaze finally settled on Chen Yu.

He chuckled and said with a smile, "It's you? I should have guessed... The Dream Weaver, the genius of No. 3 Middle School, the owner of Chenguang Co., Ltd., the behind-the-scenes mastermind of the factory, Chen Yu, right? Good eye, good methods!"

"No, uncle, there aren't that many people here," Chen Yu replied in surprise. "And what does this have to do with me? I'm wondering the same thing. Why are these screws red?"

Looking at Chen Yu's blank expression, Zhang Yun felt a sweet taste in his chest, and a slight urge to vomit blood.

What's more terrifying than failure is when the other party doesn't even consider you a competitor.

Chen Yu, I'll remember you!
