There are indeed a lot of workers, but Zhou Chen found many problems.

In a factory, the clothing is not uniform, with all kinds of clothes, which looks very uncomfortable.

Zhou Chen was also very dissatisfied with the sanitary conditions of the production line.

You have to know that this is a place where masks are produced. Hygiene is a priority, but the production line is unhygienic. What kind of work attitude is this?

In addition to these two aspects, there are various other problems, more than Zhou Chen imagined.

But apart from the problems, there are still some advantages. For example, several production lines are indeed well-equipped, the site is really large, many workers are veterans, and the work is relatively fast.

However, Zhou Chen didn't know that this was because he was coming over, and he was just pretending to be in a normal working state.

After a walk around, it was noon. Xie Guanbing did not discuss investment with Zhou Chen immediately, but took Zhou Chen to a restaurant in the town first.

"Mr. Zhou, this is a small place, please don't mind."

"fine."

Of course Zhou Chen wouldn't care, it was just a meal.

After lunch, Zhou Chen walked around the factory with Xie Guanbing and his son, and then went to the office to discuss with them in detail the purpose of his visit.

Xie and his son are not good negotiators, especially now that the factory is in crisis, their demands seem too urgent.

So at the very beginning, Zhou Chen took the initiative, put forward various demands, and then tempted them with various benefits, leading them into his plan step by step.

With the previous suggestions, and meeting a father and son who were in urgent need of investment, Zhou Chen quickly put forward his own conditions.

"The conditions are what I just said. I will be responsible for the capital injection, and you and your son can keep your current positions, but I will send more professional management personnel, and the workers in the factory must obey the arrangements of the management personnel. If they cannot meet the requirements, I will have people directly warn and fire them, and..."

The more the Xie family father and son listened, the uglier their expressions became. From what Zhou Chen meant, this was going to deprive them of most of their power, which was hard for them to accept.

"Mr. Zhou, your conditions are hard for us to accept. What we need is investment, not selling the factory."

Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Now that we've talked about it, it's easier to talk. I'm investing money, so of course I don't want my money to go down the drain, so I'll definitely arrange for my people to come and keep an eye on it. Now there are two options for you to choose from. One is that I directly acquire your factory and you name the price. The second is that I invest in it, but if it's this option, I must guarantee a return on my investment, and you must agree to the conditions I just mentioned."

Xie Guanbing didn't say anything, but Xie Jialin asked, "If it's a purchase, how much can you offer?"

In fact, he had planned to sell the factory a long time ago, but he was also aware of his father's feelings for the factory, so he had never brought it up before.

However, repeated setbacks have made their survival even more difficult. If they continue to hold on like this, their family will really have to sell everything they have.

There is affection, but the lives of the whole family must also be taken care of.

"Sixteen million."

"How many?"

The Xie family father and son couldn't believe their ears.

"Sixteen million." Zhou Chen said again.

"impossible."

Xie Guanbing angrily shouted: "Zhou Chen, do you know what you are talking about? My factory has more than 300 people, and the annual revenue alone is tens of millions, and the profit is even more considerable. You want to buy my factory for 16 million? It's simply a dream."

Hearing the figure of tens of millions, Zhou Chen really wanted to laugh. In this year, the revenue of Guanbing Mask Processing Factory did not even exceed 10 million. I really don't know where they got such confidence.

Zhou Chen said calmly: "Listen to me clearly. The 16 million I mentioned is not the price of the entire factory. I will give you and your son 16 million and I will take over your factory, including the factory's debts, loans, inventory, and unpaid wages, etc."

The father and son, who had been very angry just now, seemed to be strangled by the neck and could not utter a sound.

As the persons in charge of the factory, they are very clear about the current situation of the factory. In the past few years, the annual profit dividends for their family alone could reach several million.

But that was in the past. Now, due to poor management, not to mention profit, the company has been losing money in the past few years. The relatives who were in partnership with the company have already started to make trouble.

After hesitating for a long time, Xie Guanbing finally said, "Boss Zhou, give us some time. We need to think about it."

Zhou Chen said: "Of course, I will go back today. Call me when you have considered it. But I won't wait too long. I will only give you one month to consider it."

After saying that, Zhou Chen did not stay here any longer, but drove back to Yanjing City.

Zhou Chen returned home, took a shower, and then got dressed.

Tonight, he was going to attend a banquet at Qiao Weidong's place with Qiao Yingzi. Although he felt that this banquet might not be a good one, he still did not refuse.

'Zhou Chen, are you ready?'

Looking at the text message sent by Qiao Yingzi, Zhou Chen replied: I'm ready, how do I get there?

'I'll be waiting for you at the elevator.'

'it is good. '

He knew that the reason why Qiao Yingzi was so bold was because Song Qian was not at home today. Otherwise, she would not dare to wait for him at the elevator entrance to go together.

Chapter 237: 'The Great Beauty' Qiao Yingzi

Zhou Chen saw Qiao Yingzi at the elevator entrance on the fourth floor, but when he saw Qiao Yingzi clearly, his eyes almost fell out.

"Yingzi, what's going on? Are you really Qiao Yingzi?"

Qiao Yingzi's hair was not tied up, but was casually scattered on her shoulders. She was wearing a beige, waist-length, floral dress and a pair of white sneakers.

In Zhou Chen's impression, Qiao Yingzi has always been a heroine. She always dresses simply and he has rarely seen her put on makeup and dress up.

But the Qiao Yingzi in front of him, wearing a dress and white shoes, looked very pure and pretty. Maybe she was not stunningly beautiful, but she was enough to make people find it hard to take their eyes away after just one look.

It is no exaggeration to say that although Zhou Chen has known Qiao Yingzi for so long, Qiao Yingzi at this moment is undoubtedly the most touching.

Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes at Zhou Chen, "What? Don't you recognize me?"

Zhou Chen said: "I almost couldn't recognize you. You've changed so much. You've turned from a tomboy into a pure school beauty in a second."

"Get lost. You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. You are the tomboy." Qiao Yingzi cursed at Zhou Chen viciously.

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "I'm not the only one who said this. Everyone said this. You are the only girl in Chunfeng Middle School who dares to play basketball with a group of boys."

Qiao Yingzi snorted, "That's because you boys are too weak and need a girl like me to save you."

"Yes, you are awesome."

Zhou Chen crossed his arms, touched his chin with his thumb and index finger, and looked Qiao Yingzi up and down.

"But Yingzi, you look really beautiful in this outfit. If you go to school dressed like this, I wonder how many people will be shocked."

"You're so shocked, hurry up and leave."

Qiao Yingzi walked quickly into the elevator to hide the blush on her face.

She dressed up specially today, which took her nearly an hour and was no easier than studying.

Now that her makeup results were praised by Zhou Chen, she felt suddenly sweet in her heart, proving that her time was not wasted.

"Yingzi, this is your first time visiting your dad, should I buy you some gifts?"

"Why buy a gift? It's just a meal."

"That's hard to say. It could also be the first time the father-in-law and son-in-law meet, so of course we have to take it seriously."

Qiao Yingzi's face turned red in an instant, and she wanted to hit Zhou Chen, but when she saw Zhou Chen's half-smile, she felt even more embarrassed.

"Zhou Chen, I find you are becoming more and more shameless. Who is your father-in-law? Stop talking nonsense."

"Okay, I was wrong, it's the future father-in-law, okay?"

"Zhou Chen, do you still want to eat? If you do, shut up quickly, otherwise when you get to my dad's place, I'll see how he'll deal with you."

Qiao Yingzi's coquettish look made Zhou Chen pinch her face.

"Oh, I'm going to kill you."

Qiao Yingzi roared and rushed towards Zhou Chen.

The two of them walked out of the stairs playing and joking. In the end, Qiao Yingzi couldn't win over Zhou Chen and accompanied Zhou Chen to the gate of the community.

Zhou Chen didn't buy any valuables, he just picked up a few pounds of fruit, and then went to Qiao Weidong with Qiao Yingzi.

"I'm warning you again, don't say anything when you get to my dad's place, got it?"

Although Qiao Yingzi already had a crush on Zhou Chen, it was just a crush and she had not thought about doing anything with Zhou Chen. She was also afraid that the ambiguous relationship between Zhou Chen and herself would be known to others, especially her parents.

"Don't worry, I understand. Even if I want to pursue you, it won't affect your studies, let alone your college entrance exams."

"Who asked you to chase me? I hate you so much."

Zhou Chen asked, "That's hard to say. Yingzi, are you going to take the entrance exam to Jinling University? I have also decided to take the entrance exam to Jinling University in the future."

Compared to going to college in Yanjing, Zhou Chen really wants to go to other cities. Jinling is very close to the city in his real world. Even if it is different from the real world, being able to be closer to it makes him feel a little comforted.

"How do you know that I want to apply to Jinling University?" Qiao Yingzi asked Zhou Chen in surprise.

Zhou Chen: "Of course I guessed it. You like astronomy the most, and the Astronomy Department of Jinling University is the best in the country. With your personality, you will definitely apply for the Astronomy Department of Jinling University in the college entrance examination."

Qiao Yingzi: "I didn't realize you have such research on me?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Of course. After all, I have been secretly in love with you for more than two years. I should have found out some useful information."

Qiao Yingzi looked helpless: "Zhou Chen, can we discuss this and not always bring it up in the future, okay?"

She really couldn't understand how Zhou Chen could be so brazen and unashamed to say such words in front of him. If it were her, she really wouldn't be able to say it even if she was beaten to death.

"Okay."

Zhou Chen had a smile on his face. He was just teasing Qiao Yingzi on purpose. In fact, there was no such thing as a secret love. But now he didn't mind letting Qiao Yingzi take it seriously.

The longer he spent with Qiao Yingzi, the more he realized that Qiao Yingzi was indeed a treasure girl. It would be very interesting if she became his girlfriend.

Qiao Yingzi knocked on the door, and it was soon opened. Qiao Weidong looked at them with a smile.

"Yingzi, here you are. Zhou Chen, you are here too. Come in and sit down."

"Uncle Qiao."

Zhou Chen called out, then walked in with Qiao Yingzi and placed the purchased fruits on the kitchen table.

I saw that there was a lot of food on the dining table in the living room, and a big hot pot in the middle.

"Wow, hot pot! I love hot pot the most. Dad, you know me best."

Qiao Yingzi cheered, rushed to the table, and looked at the hot pot and the surrounding ingredients with great joy.

Qiao Weidong's face was full of smiles. Although he was a wealthy man, the most important thing to him was his daughter. Just seeing his daughter's smiling face made him happier than making money.

"Classmate Zhou Chen, I heard from Yingzi that you take good care of her. I want to thank you very much. Let's have hotpot tonight. Do you think it's okay?"

Zhou Chen immediately replied: "Of course no problem, I also like to eat hot pot."

"is it?"

Qiao Weidong smiled meaningfully, "I heard from Yingzi that you treated her to dinner a few times. Students nowadays are really rich. High school students have so much pocket money to treat girls to dinner. Your family is really willing to spend money."

Zhou Chen's expression remained unchanged. He understood what Qiao Weidong meant, which was that he was very unhappy about him treating Qiao Yingzi to dinner.

However, Zhou Chen was not too surprised. Qiao Weidong was originally a daughter slave. For a father like him, any boy who dared to hit on his daughter was an enemy.

In the TV series, even Fang Yifan, whom he had known for many years, would become so nervous after hugging Qiao Yingzi that he almost fell out with his friends. You can imagine how much of a daughter slave this man is.

Qiao Weidong and Song Qian are essentially the same kind of people, especially when it comes to their daughter. They have no bottom line and are only concerned about their daughter, and are willing to do anything for her.

The thing that makes Qiao Weidong better than Song Qian is that he is not as heartless as Song Qian. If it were Song Qian today, Zhou Chen would have been kicked out long ago. How could he still want to eat?

"Dad, stop talking."

Qiao Yingzi quickly pulled her father away and explained to him the situation at Zhou Chen's home in a low voice.

After hearing this, Qiao Weidong was very surprised. Is this child's background so complicated?

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 238 Qiao Weidong's wishful thinking, becoming brothers in seconds

Qiao Weidong was surprised at Zhou Chen's background, but soon returned to normal. Even so, he would not allow Zhou Chen to have any ideas about his daughter.

After taking a look at the fruits Zhou Chen brought, Qiao Weidong said, "Classmate Zhou Chen, you're here, why are you bringing fruits?"

Zhou Chen: "It's my duty. This is the proper etiquette for this first visit."

Qiao Weidong raised his eyebrows immediately. What did this mean?

"Haha, forget it this time, but don't do this again in the future. You are still students, you should focus on studying, don't think about etiquette or anything like that, it's not time yet."
