Seriously injured in a car accident, his wife confessed her love for his "white moonlight"

Xu Tian nodded in sudden realization, his admiration growing even stronger.

Old ginger is definitely the best!

With that in mind, the two went to a large factory, but this time they left after only a few words.

Xu Tian sighed, "These people really know how to talk to different people depending on who they are. If it weren't for my good relationship with Chu Lan, I would have thought she was trying to trick me."

Su Zhen, however, was not surprised. Small companies and large companies are different, but all large companies started from small companies, and the network of contacts accumulated over time played a key role.

"I think we should go and take a look at the smaller manufacturers."

Xu Tian was somewhat disheartened. He hadn't expected that just because a company was different in size, it would treat people differently based on their status.

After several transfers, the two arrived at a little-known small factory.

"You just saw how I communicated with them, so you can come this time. I won't go in."

Su Zhen stood outside the factory.

Xu Tian nodded. If he couldn't even learn this much, how could he talk about having lofty ambitions?

With that in mind, Xu Tian went into the factory alone and wandered around like Su Zhen, first observing their work process.

"you are?"

A disheveled man walked towards us.

Xu Tian first gave a polite introduction, and then stated his needs.

"Hello!"

The man quickly patted his dirty clothes, then stretched out his hand.

"My name is Wang Mian, and I'm the owner of this factory. We can meet all your needs."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tian's heart sank. It seemed he had encountered the same situation as before.

"Excuse me, it's a bit chaotic here. Why don't you come into the office and we can talk?" Wang Mian's eyes were somewhat cautious.

Since we're already here, we might as well broaden our horizons.

With this attitude, Xu Tian arrived at the so-called office that Wang Mian had mentioned.

It's called an office, but it's more like a storage room. The building materials piled up inside are so thick that there's barely any room to stand. The only sofa is occupied by several bags of cement.

"Please wait!"

Wang Mian laboriously dragged the cement aside and wiped it repeatedly with a rag before letting Xu Tian sit down.

"I'd like to take a look at the materials first," Xu Tian said.

Wang Mian was taken aback, then left without saying a word. Xu Tian pouted and was about to get up and leave when he saw Wang Mian return with materials in his hands.

"Look, these are all newly produced."

Xu Tian hadn't held out much hope, but seeing how sincere the man's attitude was, he became serious and examined him carefully.

Su Zhen had just taught him how to check the quality of materials, so he put what he learned into practice and checked them all.

The result shocked him; the materials Wang Mian brought in were all of very good quality.

Wang Mian rubbed his hands together. "If you're interested, we can discuss cooperation further."

With such high-quality materials, he should be upright and strong, but Xu Tian couldn't help but feel that something was wrong with Wang Mian.

how to say?

It feels very stealthy…

Could it be that I've been fooled again?

Thinking of this, Xu Tian asked another question, "Are you sure these were all just produced in your factory?"

Wang Mian nodded repeatedly, "Of course, if you don't like it, come inside the factory with me and take a look, it's just a bit dirty."

Xu Tian then asked, "What is the production capacity?"

“This…” Wang Mian stammered, unable to speak.

Xu Tian sneered inwardly, stood up, and was about to leave.

Wang Mian suddenly knelt down on the ground behind him, which startled Xu Tian.

"What are you doing? Get up quickly." Xu Tian quickly turned around and helped him up.

Wang Mian's face was etched with the marks of time.

“The factory hasn’t received any business for more than six months. If there are no more orders, my factory will go out of business.”

"If you like the quality of my factory, I will definitely work overtime to finish it for you."

Xu Tian was puzzled, "Your materials are all of good quality, so why aren't you getting any business?"

Wang Mian sighed and explained the whole story.

It was nothing more than vicious competition. He had no money or power, so he could only work hard to improve the quality. But because of this, many nearby manufacturers began to ostracize him and even smear his factory. Over time, his factory stopped receiving orders.

Xu Tian was the first customer to come to the factory in the past six months, so he placed all his hopes on Xu Tian.

As for the production capacity issue, the reason he hesitated was because he hadn't received any orders for too long, couldn't pay wages, and almost all the workers had left.

Those who remained were all elderly people who had followed him through thick and thin for many years.

"I'll supply you however much you need!" Wang Mian said.

Xu Tian looked at him and said, "If you don't have any orders, you can go out and look for them. Waiting passively won't help."

Wang Mian sighed deeply. How could he not have gone out to look for opportunities? But Jiangcheng was only so big. Big companies didn't want him, and small companies wanted to take advantage of his illness and drive the price down to below cost. What could he do?

Although Xu Tian sympathized with him, he also needed a stable manufacturer to provide materials, and for a moment, he was caught in a dilemma.

Wang Mian continued, "I guarantee that production capacity will keep up. I'll start recruiting right now, as long as you give me a chance!"

Looking at the dirty and messy office, Xu Tian couldn't help but sigh. He had also wanted an opportunity to prove himself, and now he had finally gotten it.

If he were to give Wang Mian this opportunity, the resulting production capacity shortage would create a host of problems, even though the quality of his factory's products was indeed up to standard...

"I'll go back and think about it, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow."

After saying that, Xu Tian left.

Su Zhen was still waiting for him outside. He told Su Zhen about Wang Mian and the true situation of the factory, and wanted to hear Su Zhen's advice.

However, Su Zhen simply smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and told him to make his own decision, without offering any further substantial advice.

In Su Zhen's view, Xu Tian's choice this time determined the path he should take in the future.

Just like Xusheng Group, this small factory is a choice between overcoming difficulties together and becoming Xu Tian's loyal partner in the future, or parting ways and going their separate ways, with Xu Tian forging a new path.

Su Zhen will only provide guidance and will never interfere.

On the way back, Xu Tian kept thinking about this matter. As soon as he arrived at the construction site, he hurriedly got out of the car.

At this time, Ah Lian listened to his advice and set up a small food stall with her mother. There were also several other stalls nearby selling chilled drinks and some daily necessities.

"Ah Lian, where's your father?" Xu Qi ran over, panting.

Ah Lian pointed to the other end of the construction site. "My father is too old to work on the construction site anymore, but he can still do these small businesses."

Xu Tian nodded and hurried over to look for it.

The old man's stall sells cooked food, all of which he braises himself. The food smells good, so business is pretty good.

"I have a question for you. Are there any able-bodied men in the village who haven't found work?" Xu Tian asked hurriedly.
