Old Master Huo looked at Alia steadily, especially at her expression. After realizing that she was not being polite, he didn't know what was going on in his mind, but he burst into laughter.

"Good! Good girl, you are better than your father - what is money? Spend it and then earn it. Sometimes, even if you know that something doesn't make money, someone has to do it!"

From a businessman's perspective, he certainly disagrees with Alia's investment philosophy.

But judging from his personal experience and character, what Alia did was exactly what he wanted...

If he wasn't old and didn't know much about semiconductors and chips, he wouldn't have been a matchmaker, but would have taken the lead himself.

Ailia was a little confused by him: "So my third uncle heard about my investment and found you to help me?"

"That's about right. Your third uncle is in the shipbuilding business, as you know. I have some experience in this area, so we got to know each other after a while."

Alia suddenly understood. No wonder Uncle San was so mysterious before. What help, standing on her side, strategy...

So it's just to recruit people for himself, and he recruited a super boss to guide the newbies - who among outsiders would not say that Master Ai San is thoughtful?

But there is no need to do so, really. This kind of cold violence can be restrained and you can just have fun.

Alia picked up the teacup and said, "I'll use tea instead of wine to toast you. If I need anything, I will definitely come to you for advice in the future."

"Pfft..." Old Master Huo laughed and shook his head repeatedly: "How old are you, girl? You are so thick-skinned, can you still keep the favor and use it?"

"Can't? Then don't worry." Alia drank the tea in one gulp. "It's an honor for our group cafeteria to have you come to eat. How about packing two for me to take home? Let's not talk about those troublesome things. Just eat and drink and have a good time."

"Tsk—" Old Master Huo smacked his lips. The more he looked at Alia, the more he liked her. He felt that this girl was not pretentious about her temper.

Perhaps it is at this age that these children still have some idealistic mentality and want to do something big.

If I continue to be tempered or beaten by society for a few more years, and my spirit is gone, then it won’t be beautiful…

"Girl, when will you officially take over your group?"

"...Why are you asking this?" Alia was a little wary. She always felt that the old man's smile was weird, as if he was planning something.

But that shouldn't be the case. As for money, this guy has plenty of it. As for status, Alia has to queue up to toast others at a banquet.

After thinking about it, Alia felt that the only possibility was that the other party had taken a fancy to her - the chefs from the group's headquarters restaurant!

Hey, my mom was cautious when she signed the contract with these masters. Why is it only a 20-year contract? She should have signed a lifetime contract...

"I also have a girl at home, from the eldest son's family. You two can meet each other sometime. She has just taken over some of my family's businesses. Let her be your friend."

Oh, I was wrong. I wasn't craving for the restaurant in my cafeteria, I was craving for myself. That's okay.

"Okay, okay, my friend, I will, I will, next time -"

It's so funny. I will never take over the Ai Group. I hold the emperor hostage and command the princes. I would be much happier to be a customer service representative.

I can enjoy all employee benefits. I throw overtime operations to senior executives. If I am asked to work overtime, I just smile with a crooked mouth. If my identity is exposed, it means I have successfully returned as the Dragon King.

Tsk, I feel happy just thinking about it, but I don’t know why I haven’t seen any management positions that look down on others recently. Maybe I should change my position to continue fishing…

Mr. Huo chatted with Alia about all sorts of things for a while and found that this girl, although young, had a great vision.

Many of her views and perceptions are completely inappropriate for someone of her age. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have suspected that the person sitting opposite her was the wrong person.

I shouldn't be in the cafeteria. Am I really not in some meeting hall?

Alia didn't feel anything. She had achieved some small success before she traveled through time. It was too late for her to act younger now. Fortunately, it was just a casual chat.

If I had known that this big guy was going to consider me, I should have disguised myself as a herb like Isatis root or small white flower that could cure all diseases and live in harmony with the world.

Finally, Mr. Huo said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he did pack two dishes, one was Dongpo pork and the other was also Dongpo pork.

In his words, he has grown older and his health has deteriorated over the years. He is very restricted in eating at home, and it is rare for him to have a happy meal during social events.

Alia said, "No, no, you're welcome. If you're not happy with your meal, then that's stupid. It's a drinking culture, right? Even dogs won't go!"

Old Master Huo smiled happily and said that he hadn't been so happy for a long time. He repeatedly invited Alia to visit his home, saying that his pickled fish was a specialty.

"In one's life, one must do meaningful things. Having money actually gives people an opportunity to make their own contributions in more aspects. One must become the master of money, not its slave!"

The old man patted Alia's shoulder. He came quietly and left in a very casual manner. He waved his hand and left only five work cards.

"I hope to hear good news from you. For me, what I love most is the champion. You have to be a champion too!"

"...?"

135-No news about Ai Group

"Sister——" Sister Jing was so excited: "Sister!"

"Hmm?" Alia picked her teeth, looking a little lazy after dinner, her face full of thought.

She was thinking about what to do tonight after get off work...what else?

I finally got a job, working from 9 to 5. Now it takes me more than half an hour to get home after eating in the cafeteria. The only free time I have is...

She thought about it. She worked eight hours a day, and if she got home at seven in the evening, she would only have five hours of entertainment time.

My goodness, I only have five hours of free time, which is not enough to watch two long anime series!

Not to mention those 3A masterpieces whose gaming process is prolonged and requires dozens of hours of immersive entertainment.

Tsk, we need to think of ways to improve employee benefits. If that doesn't work, we can just use a four-day work shift...

"Sister, what did you talk about with Mr. Huo?"

"Let's talk about four ways to cook Dongpo pork and eight ways to eat it."

"……Then what?"

"Then what?" Alia came back to her senses: "Why are you so excited?"

"That's Mr. Huo - didn't he talk to us about cooperation or anything?"

"What cooperation are you talking about? They are just passing by, don't think too much about it."

"Oh, oh... I understand, I understand, don't worry, sister! I will never say anything nonsense!"

That's right, what business is there to talk about? People of my sister's and Mr. Huo's level - well, mainly the latter - people of their level, how could they be so straightforward.

At their level, one or two business collaborations worth tens of billions are really not a big deal and can only be considered average.

Apart from anything else, the Ai Group wants to use the building as collateral for a mortgage loan, but if it were Boss Huo, he would have no problem getting a loan of tens or hundreds of millions just by showing his face at the bank.

Sister Jing was rubbing her hands together excitedly, regretting that she had not come to take a photo or ask for an autograph or something. It would have been best if she had hung the photo in her office.

Write another line below, such as "Young entrepreneur with high hopes from Mr. Huo Tailai" or something like that...

I heard that Mr. Huo likes sports, especially diving because of his experience in shipbuilding and sailing in his early years.

When he first set sail, he was transporting much-needed supplies to the country. More than once, he was attacked by enemy spies who installed mines to blow up the cargo ship. He had to go into the water himself to inspect the bottom of the ship many times.

Therefore, the entire Huo family regards skills such as diving and swimming as essential skills. They must be learned from a young age and must be practiced diligently when they grow up.

Well, maybe that’s why the diving queen was taken home by the eldest grandson. What a match made in heaven…

Sister Jing is still thinking about how to please him. How about practicing sports to be more sunny and cheerful?

Ai Liya, who was like a lazy fish next to her, thought for a long time, slapped her thigh, and asked Sister Jing: "Why hasn't the third episode of Mercury Witch aired yet?"

"what?"

"What do you think about our entire video website broadcasting all the dramas at once in the future?"

Sister Jing was stunned as she was totally unable to keep up with her sister's crazy thinking.

"……ah??"

"I've already thought of a name, it's Wang Nai!"

"……ah???"

……

……

"Ahhh, you've been sighing all night. What's wrong with you?"

Seeing her husband wandering around in front of her and sighing, Lu Tiantian became extremely angry.

You say that his duck voice and the sighs he makes are unpleasant to the ear. Is he trying to call out to the soul?

"Wife, our company might go bankrupt!"

"……That's it?"

"Isn't this scary?!"

"I thought you were weak!" Lu Tiantian hit him angrily: "If you go bankrupt, then go bankrupt. At worst, we can find a place to raise cattle!"

Although her name is Tiantian, Mrs. Lu can't be said to be petite, but she can be said to be strong and healthy. She should be called Mrs. Niu.

Compared with her indecisive husband, Mrs. Lu is very strong and has always been the backbone of the family.

"No money? If you don't have money, go back to raising cattle! Isn't that how we started our business?"

"I know. I remember it all. When you went to college, your family sold a cow to save enough money for your tuition. After we got married and started our own business, it was also your father-in-law who sold his belongings and the cow to make our first pot of gold..."

"Yeah, so what are you afraid of?"

"But my father-in-law had more than 300 cows back then. Now he has moved to the city to take care of his parents and children. I don't have the skills to do that!"

"So what skills do we have?"

"We have nothing. We now rely on a few electronic assembly lines to make a living, but the payment for the outsourcing goods has not been settled yet, and we can hardly pay the wages. Today I went to the factory to check, and everyone asked me when last month's wages were paid. I...sigh..."

He groaned a few times and scratched his head. "If it doesn't work out, I'm going to mortgage my house to get through this. I can't not pay the workers, right?"

This is not just a matter of conscience, but it is also because skilled workers are hard to find nowadays. If I am not wanted here, I will be wanted elsewhere. Can you tie someone up just to tighten a screw?

He wanted to build a first-class foundry, so naturally he had to retain this group of core technical workers, but a good cook cannot cook without rice.

Either you have a big order or you pay a high piece rate, the workers will work until they smoke.

Either the welfare benefits are good so that the business can be maintained even in the off-season, or the workers are path dependent. Who would be willing to give up their comfort zone?

The man felt that he was a boss who kept his word. He provided benefits during festivals and holidays, and did not deduct wages. He implemented the principle of "the more you work, the more you pay."

He was born in a farming family. His mother was a worker in a furniture factory. When he was in high school, he only cared about studying and was stopped by gangsters and asked for money. He was beaten when he couldn't give it out. Fortunately, he met his future wife by chance, which led to their later meeting and happy marriage.

The three thugs faced Lu Tiantian, and were thrown into a Mongolian wrestling match by her, causing them to be dizzy and with broken bones. God knows how safe he felt at that time.

The couple who had secretly fallen in love after high school entered the same university. The man was determined to give his girlfriend a bright future and he mustered up the courage to meet his parents.

Then, with the belief that "I will definitely bring her out of the poor grassland and settle her in the prosperous city", the man was frightened by the herd of cattle and sheep in his girlfriend's home...

The sky is vast and the wilderness is endless. The wind blows the grass low and you can see cattle and sheep. There are three hundred cows and an unknown number of sheep. There are three cars and a house in the city.

Is this called poverty? Is this called selling a cow to have money to go to college?

People could earn more than 20,000 yuan from selling a cow, but his internship salary was only 2,200 yuan at that time...

In this way, the man passed the test of his girlfriend's family which was like a movie plot and won the recognition of the other party's family. His father-in-law waved his hand and supported his capital of 300 cows, allowing him to start a business with his daughter and find the true meaning of life for you young people.

The reason why Mrs. Lu is so confident is because her old father always emphasizes that she has a solid backing and the prairie is protecting her children.

"Alas, if the Ai Group didn't owe us more than 100 million, we wouldn't be in such a difficult situation..."

“It’s just one more…” Mrs. Lu, full of passion, paused for a moment, turned her head and looked back, her voice changed: “How much?!”

"...Ahem, fifty, fifty million?"

"You said it was 35 million last time! Now it's 50 million, but it's actually over 100 million?!"

Madam Lu, who was majestic and powerful, grabbed her husband and picked up the thermos cup at hand: "Either you make your words clear today! Or - come into the house with me!"

"One, one hundred and thirty-five million... seven hundred and forty-five thousand..."

The man shrank his neck, his throat rolled, and he honestly told about his predicament.

His wife is a strong and virtuous wife, but she is not the company's financial manager. He doesn't even dare to tell the company's top executives about these bad debts, let alone tell them at home.

If he hadn't been unable to squeeze out any liquidity and was really powerless, would he have even talked about bankruptcy...

Without money, there is no way to purchase raw materials and take orders for production. Without taking orders for production, you cannot earn more money. It is a vicious circle.

What? Pay first? Pay in full? The person who placed the order pays first and then starts the work?

What are you dreaming about? Hey buddy, do you want to ask how many of your peers are paying for other people's OEM work and can only get a little bit of advertising fees?

It is normal to use other people's power to lay eggs and let manufacturers stockpile goods. His situation is slightly better as he is an OEM, but the improvement is only limited.

But there is a threshold to kneeling down and begging for food. Many people want to kneel down but don’t have the means to do so…
