Wang Shuping was also helpless. If she could, she would like to sell the factory for a high price of 300,000 yuan, but who would want it?

Even when Lin Fan was offered 200,000, he desperately refused, and after much pleading and cajoling, he finally got a price of 170,000. What more could he ask for?

With some mending and a little extra money, we should be able to scrape together enough to pay off the debts and get our husbands out of jail.

"Oh, Mom, you're so foolish!"

Ye Tian looked at Wang Shuping, who was full of complaints.

"It's because you were so focused on solving the Ye family's current predicament that you were given a handle to use against them."

"If you take a firmer stance and ignore those external debts, then selling this factory for 300,000 will definitely be enough!"

Wang Shuping looked at her son and thought he had gone mad.

"Xiao Tian, ​​what nonsense are you talking about? If we label your father with economic crimes, he'll be stuck in jail for life. How can we not raise the money? How can we ignore those debts?"

Ye Tian snorted and said, "I didn't say you can't interfere, did I? You can spend tens of thousands of yuan to get him out of there, and then our family can take the money from the contract and fly away to a foreign country. Who can do anything to us then?"

"With such a large sum of money, we can still live a carefree life abroad, and maybe even make a comeback."

"As for those debt collectors and the government, do you think they can track us down overseas and arrest us? You're just too kind and too foolish!"

Indeed, there are many such examples, and it can even be said that the vast majority of entrepreneurs in this land do the same.

In other words, this behavior can be considered a loophole that the law is aware of but powerless to change.

Some notorious economic criminals, after receiving large sums of money, disregard the lives of others and the number of people they have implicated, causing families to be ruined and lives to be destroyed. They simply take the money abroad, living a carefree life while leaving behind a mess.

Ye Tian clearly had the same thought in mind. If the factory could be sold for 300,000, and they could sell their house and other shops to raise 400,000, even if it cost 20,000 or 30,000, they could get his father out of prison and then the whole family could take the money abroad and live a carefree life.

That's a full 400,000! In an era where the average person's daily wage is less than ten yuan, 400,000 is enough for them to live on for a hundred years without ever running out of money.

“You… Xiao Tian…”

Hearing her son's words, Wang Shuping looked at Ye Tian but didn't know what to say.

He just inexplicably felt that his son seemed a little scary.

How come I never noticed before? My own son is so ruthless, even more so than his father!

If these debts are not paid off and the employees' wages are not settled, how many people will be ruined and their families destroyed?

Putting aside whether this plan is feasible or not, even if it is, does this family really want to abandon their conscience and do this?

"Mom, even if you raise enough money now, what good will it do to get Dad out?"

“We have nothing left, and we may not even be able to eat in the future. I may not even be able to go to school anymore. What’s the point of living like this? It’s better to stay in prison, at least we can eat.”

Ye Tian, ​​however, hadn't finished complaining and kept grumbling at Wang Shuping.

The older woman standing to the side couldn't stand it any longer and said helplessly, "Alright, Xiaotian, stop talking!"

"Dad's safety is more important. We can't do something so heartless. Although it's true that business is all about profit, if we do this, people will curse us and talk behind our backs."

Ye Tian glared at his mother, and like his eldest sister, said nothing, then angrily turned and left.

He was also in a state of confusion. He had gone from being a high-ranking young master of the Ye family to a penniless man, and he needed time to recover.

As for Wang Shuping, watching Ye Tian's departing figure, she felt a mix of emotions, and for some reason, the image of Lin Fan popped into her mind.

Overwhelmed with a mix of emotions, he felt a surge of emotion that made him want to cry.

……

Since signing the contract with Wang Shuping and acquiring the Ye family's factory, Lin Fan has been busy with the new factory for some time.

Of course, he didn't forget his main business. Every week, he would go to the provincial capital with Lin Shuying. One of them would go to the diplomatic mission to report for duty, and the other would go to the school to report for duty.

Over time, the two of them became more and more familiar with the provincial capital, which could be considered as some advance planning for settling down there.

One week after the contract was signed, the new factory officially started construction.

Of course, it still has the same name.

As Lin Fan had arranged, Huba successfully became the factory manager of the new factory.

Managing such a large factory, Huba was quite the star for a time, and felt very proud and happy.

After the new factory started operations, the original factory employees were given a three-day paid leave.

As a result, the employees treated Lin Fan with the utmost respect, as if he were their benefactor.

Although the exploitation by capital was not as severe as it would be decades later, the workers still lived a very hard life.

They had never seen a boss as generous and considerate of his employees as Lin Fan in their entire lives.

So now there are even rumors circulating throughout Liangshan County that working in Lin Fan's factory is better than having a stable job as a teacher, doctor, or in the government.

Lin Fan's factory suddenly became a hot commodity, which is why he was able to recruit all the staff needed for the new factory in such a short time.

Even though Lin Fan had raised the recruitment requirements and thoroughly investigated the background of each worker, people still kept coming for interviews. In the end, a total of two hundred people were recruited before the new factory could be considered to have officially stabilized.

After the new factory started operations, progress was very fast. In less than two months, most of the previous orders had been fulfilled.

This day also marked Lin Fan's formal farewell to his family. He was about to leave Liangshan County with Lin Shuying and embark on their journey to the provincial capital.

“Brother Huba, I’m leaving the place to you. If you don’t understand anything, you can communicate with your men. If you encounter any major decisions, go to my second brother, my sister-in-law, and my brother-in-law. They are all very experienced and can definitely help you handle a lot of things.”

At the entrance of the new factory, Lin Fan gave Huba his final instructions before leaving.

Huba said earnestly, "Brother Lin, don't worry, leave this to me. I can't guarantee there won't be any mistakes, but I can guarantee that I will put in my best effort to manage the factory well for you."
