Great Power Industry: You're a private company building an aircraft carrier?

The next day, early in the morning.

The workers at Laiyang Steel Plant consist of two groups.

Those who came from Shougang with Qin Jianguo to start their business mainly focused on technology, while the nearby villagers mainly did manual labor.

As the sun rose, large numbers of workers, riding bicycles and wearing safety helmets, arrived from all directions.

However, when they reached the bend in the mountain road, they were surprised to see a Santana's wheel had fallen into the ditch.

The villagers were very honest; without saying a word, they jumped off their bicycles and helped push them.

One, two... soon more than a dozen arrived, and Santana was finally pushed up.

"Thank you!"

Yang Zhanfu wiped the sweat from his forehead and handed out cigarettes to the workers: "Here, you've worked hard, have one!"

The workers took the cigarettes and put them in their mouths.

Guo Qing lit the fire, and said with a smile, "Are you workers from the nearby factory?"

"Yes, from a steel mill."

"Your factory must be very busy lately, right?"

"Of course, we've been producing gas cylinders lately, and these gas cylinders are..."

"Old Zhang!"

An old worker standing nearby called out.

Old Zhang immediately realized what was going on and chuckled, "Well, it's getting late, we have to go to work!"

After the workers left, Yang Zhanfu and Guo Qing were dumbfounded.

"This is weird! After they sold the rockets last time, they switched to producing gas cylinders! And this time, foreign customers came and they specifically wanted gas cylinders!"

"Yes, could it be... that they planned this before? Oh no!"

Yang Zhanfu and Guo Qing's faces both darkened.

Everyone was envious when they heard that Laiyang Steel Plant made money selling firecrackers. There were quite a few other plants like Dongfeng Machinery Plant that switched to producing firecrackers.

Everyone was busy purchasing steel pipes and welding rockets, just waiting for foreign customers to come so they could directly provide the finished products to them.

What now?

Foreign customers have changed their minds and want gas cylinders instead of rockets!

This is terrible!

How to do?

Yang Zhanfu gritted his teeth: "Let's go in and ask!"

Blocking foreign customers at the door is already a huge risk; if you go in and question them, you might get beaten to death!

However, Yang Zhanfu and Guo Qing did not hesitate, and it was not their turn to hesitate now!

If they don't fight for it, the factory will go out of business!

"Let's not drive, let's walk!"

What if a fight breaks out and the car gets smashed? This car is borrowed!

The two strode towards Laiyang Steel Plant. Just as they reached the gate, they saw the Audi parked in the yard, and at that moment, two young men were walking towards the car.

The sunlight was bright, illuminating their faces clearly, and Yang Zhanfu and Guo Qing recognized them.

The Audi, young man, is the one who visited our Dongfeng Machinery Factory last time!

These two men impersonated provincial leaders and took away hydraulic presses from our factory.

Hydraulic presses are essential equipment for manufacturing gas cylinders!

Now, even if Dongfeng Machinery Factory wanted to switch to producing gas cylinders, it wouldn't have the capability.

Because they've run out of equipment, they can't afford to buy brand new ones, let alone secondhand ones!

Having figured this out, both of them were burning with rage.

"Damn it, you liar! I'm going to kill you!" Yang Zhanfu shouted.

"Factory manager, don't be impulsive!" Guo Qing still retained a sliver of rationality.

However, he couldn't stop him, and Yang Zhanfu had already rushed towards Qin Chuan and Li Jianshe.

Qin Chuan felt somewhat embarrassed.

He really hadn't expected to run into Yang Zhanfu and his group.

This kind of thing can be done in secret; doing it face-to-face feels like being caught cheating on someone else's wife.

Li Jianshe wasn't going to tolerate the other party, and casually grabbed a weapon from the side.

It was just something he grabbed casually; it was just an extra firecracker. The sharp tip was pointed at the person who came, and Yang Zhanfu stopped in his tracks instantly.

Would you dare go up there? You'd probably get stabbed right through!

The others in the factory also realized what was happening and rushed over with their tools.

Even Guo Qing was not spared.

They dare to cause trouble at our factory? They're asking for it!

Even if we kill these two people today and bury them somewhere, no one might know!

"You, you came to Yang Factory to bully people! You repay kindness with enmity!"

Yang Zhanfu shouted loudly.

"Hmph, we even helped you push your cart on the way to the factory, and now you're coming to cause trouble. Who's repaying kindness with enmity here?"

"Hey buddy, are you sure you're not mistaken? Have we met before?"

"Pretend, keep pretending!"

Yang Zhanfu was furious: "I am Yang Zhanfu, the factory director of Dongfeng Machinery Factory. You bought a hydraulic press from our factory to manufacture gas cylinders!"

"Your calculations are truly shrewd! You keep making money off foreigners, while you're ruining Dongfeng Factory!"

"Really? I didn't know that. Do you have any proof?"

"Everyone in our factory has seen you! And your Audi!"

"Do you think what your factory workers say counts? Everyone in our factory can testify that I, Qin Chuan, have never been to your factory!"

"you……"

Yang Zhanfu gritted his teeth: "You're just bullying us!"

"Director Yang, there must be some misunderstanding here!"

Qin Chuan looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, please disperse! Come on, Director Yang, let's go inside and talk."

"Let's talk!"

Yang Zhanfu walked into the office next door with his head held high and chest out, as if he were going to the execution ground.

"Have some water first. Jianshe, Jianshe, what are you doing? Drop what you're holding and go get some water for Director Yang!"

"Director Yang, what's the name of the person following you behind you?"

"My name is Guo Qing, I'm from the sales department of Dongfeng Motor Factory. You've clearly seen me before, why are you pretending not to know me!"

"I really don't know him. You must have mistaken him for someone else. By the way, have you ever read martial arts novels? For example, The Legendary Twins. There are two twin brothers in it. There are many people in this world who look alike."

"Humph!"

"Have you two come to ask for help because the factory is facing some difficulties?"

Qin Chuan said, "I, Qin Chuan, am a warm-hearted person. If your factory needs any help, please let me know."

Yang Zhanfu's eyes darted around, and he actually spoke up: "Our factory produced a large batch of firecrackers, but we have no market for them. Foreigners don't want them anymore. Do you have any ideas?"

"I thought it was something serious, but it's just a small matter?"

"Sure thing, leave it to me. Send those firecrackers that no one else wants in your factory to ours!"

Guo Qing frowned. Qin Chuan agreed so quickly, could it be that he wanted to become a middleman?

As long as the price is right, it doesn't matter if he makes a little profit. It seems that foreigners only accept him, so there's no other way.

How much is one?

"We'll buy it by weight."

"How much does it cost per pound?"

"Our Laiyang Steel Plant offers the highest price. Right now, all the other steel plants are offering 50 cents a pound, but we're offering 70 cents!"

What, the price of scrap metal?

Guo Qing and Yang Zhanfu's expressions changed drastically instantly.

"Well, we thought you were serious, but it turns out you were just making fun of us!"
