Looking at the thirty-one creditors close at hand, Yin Zhixing's face turned green!
"Wang Yi, you betrayed me!"
Wang Yi picked up his coffee and smiled faintly:
"There's nothing I can do. You set a landmine in the debt to trick me, so I can only retaliate, Boss Yin!"
As he spoke, his expression turned cold:
"I'll give you two choices. Either continue the transaction, you take 1.45 million, and 550,000 in debt transfers to me. Or stop the transaction, and you talk to them to resolve your debts."
"I..." Yin Zhixing despaired.
Resolve?
How to resolve?
If he could have resolved it, he wouldn't have run away with his wife!
"I hunted eagles all my life, but never thought I'd be pecked by an eagle in the end!"
Yin Zhixing sighed:
"Okay, 1.45 million it is, I agree to the transaction!"
Wang Yi had the lawyer take out the prepared contract, confirmed it was correct, and both parties signed, handling the transfer procedures.
This lawyer was the legal counsel from Pudong Development Bank, brought by Zhao Huan.
For major clients, banks are willing to provide corresponding assistance.
After all, having bought the factory, Wang Yi still needed to apply for a mortgage loan, which would be another piece of business!
Wang Yi wholly acquired Liangcai Garment Factory for a price of 2 million.
Of course, 550,000 of that was debt owed to workers, which transferred to Wang Yi.
"You surnamed Wang, you're ruthless!"
Yin Zhixing walked out of the coffee shop with a livid face, seething with anger inside.
Wang Yi, didn't you trick me? Then I'll trick you back!
Yin Zhixing looked at the surrounding workers, mocking repeatedly:
"Now, ask him for the money he owes you. But he only has 1.5 million, he gave me 1.45 million, and after paying taxes, it'll all be gone. Hahahaha!"
"You all have been tricked by him too! The wages he owes you, he can't pay them either! Hahahaha!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wang Yi, their expressions changing drastically.
Grandpa Feng couldn't help but say:
"Boss Wang, are you also going to trick us out of our hard-earned money?"
"Please, no!" Others also spoke up one after another:
"Boss Wang! My old partner has to take medicine every month, relying entirely on that money!"
"Boss Wang, if you don't give me my hard-earned money, how will I pay my son's mortgage? It's about to default!"
Listening to everyone's voices, Wang Yi waved his hand:
"Everyone, rest assured, although I temporarily have no money on hand, I still have the factory. I would rather mortgage the factory for a loan than not pay back the hard-earned money that Boss Yin owes you!"
"I am not like certain people; I wouldn't do something so immoral as owing money and not paying it back!"
"You!"
Yin Zhixing surged with anger, Wang Yi was calling him out!
However, before he could even get angry, he was pushed aside by the surrounding workers.
"Really?"
Grandpa Feng and others were stunned, filled with disbelief.
Mortgage the factory for their hard-earned money?
There's such a good person?
A 2 million factory, mortgaging it for over 1 million is not a problem, and paying back 550,000 in owed wages is even easier.
"Boss Wang, are you really going to mortgage a loan for our sake?" Grandpa Feng asked again.
"Of course, it's true."
Wang Yi looked at Zhao Huan next to him:
"This is Manager Zhao from Pudong Development Bank. After finishing the procedures here, I will go to apply for the mortgage loan. Once the loan is disbursed, I'll immediately pay you back 550,000!"
"Of course, if you're not at ease, you can come back to the factory and keep an eye on me. You can also continue to work at the factory and get paid as usual."
"The factory I bought for 2 million is right there; the monk can run away, but the temple cannot!"
Upon hearing this, everyone put their minds at ease, and some expressed willingness to return to work at the factory.
Another part was a bit hesitant, worried about being owed wages again, having been scared of being tricked.
Wang Yi saw everyone's worries:
"Like this, for those willing to return to work, we'll settle wages on the same day! For those unwilling, no compulsion."
"What? Same-day settlement? There's such a good thing?"
"Okay, I'll go back!"
"Must go back. And keep an eye on him until the loan comes through to pay the wages Boss Yin owed."
"Makes sense!"
In an instant, everyone expressed willingness to stay and continue working.
Paying wages daily, this is the greatest integrity.
Wang Yi looked around at everyone:
"Okay, everyone go back for today first. If you're not at ease, you can leave a person in charge to follow me. Once preparations are complete, we'll officially start work and settle wages on the same day."
At this moment, a man stood out:
"Listen to the boss, everyone go back. When work starts, I'll notify everyone."
Everyone nodded, and then dispersed one after another.
Yin Zhixing watched this scene, his molars almost crushed:
"This rascal, not very old, but quite resourceful. Controlled the situation so quickly and won over the people's hearts! Hateful!"
"Unfortunately, after finishing the transfer procedures in a bit and getting the money, I'll have to run away."
His creditors were not just this batch.
Qingyun County, he couldn't stay anymore.
No, the entire Jizhou City, he couldn't stay anymore.
"Boss, hello, my name is Wei Ming. Before, I was always in charge of things in the factory, coordinating everyone's production."
Wang Yi nodded:
"Very good, in the future, you continue to be in charge. If you do well, I'll give you a 50% raise. If you don't do well, you pack your things and leave."
"50% raise! Wouldn't that be 4500?"
Wei Ming was beaming with joy, his whole body was excited:
"Don't worry, Boss, I will definitely work hard!"
"Okay, I'll see your performance."
After completing all procedures, Yin Zhixing took the money and directly ran away, for fear of being surrounded by creditors, not even having time to cause trouble for Wang Yi.
Wang Yi then returned to the garment factory with Wei Ming.
At this point, the entire garment factory completely belonged to Wang Yi!
It was also where, in his plan, Meiyou E-commerce would begin!
Wang Yi calculated clearly that these few months he could fully produce "pure desire style" dresses.
By the time the demolition freeze in October, he could talk about demolition compensation fees.
In his previous life, this garment factory had stopped work and production, so the demolition compensation was only sixty million.
This time, Wang Yi is operating normally, so the demolition compensation will naturally be much higher.
Just the turnover compensation for stopping work and production would be an astronomical figure!
How much would it add up to?
Wang Yi was very much looking forward to it!
He decided, if there are no problems, to start work as soon as possible!
Wei Ming took Wang Yi to tour the entire garment factory, introducing it as they toured, then took out a thick book:
"Boss, inside here is the current asset list of the garment factory, including equipment, materials, and that batch of unsold clothing."
Wang Yi took a look; the records were very detailed, with fabric styles, sizes, and quantities all clear and precise.
Wang Yi was very satisfied with how responsible Wei Ming was.
That batch of clothing had over 34,000 pieces.
There was no market for them in the city, but if sold in towns and townships, they could sell for over 100,000, which would also be excellent.
Wang Yi took out a design drawing and handed it over:
"Take a look at this dress design."
Of course, Wang Yi was not a professional designer; it was just a simple sketch drawn casually.
But Wei Ming was a professional and understood it at a glance!
Then his brows slightly furrowed.
"Have thoughts?" Wang Yi said.
Wei Ming hesitated to speak:
"Boss, I... I..."
Wang Yi smiled:
"Working for me, speak without reservation, say all you know, just say it."
"Yes!" Wei Ming nodded:
"Boss, this set of dresses you designed is very beautiful and attractive. But isn't it a bit too avant-garde? I'm afraid if we make them, people won't be able to accept them!"
"Rest assured, times are developing very fast. Don't limit your perspective to small counties; in the future, if you have time, go visit first-tier big cities more often."
Those unsold styles are precisely due to perspectives not keeping up with the times.
Wang Yi patted Wei Ming on the shoulder:
"First arrange for someone to make the pattern and create samples."
"Boss, don't worry, I can do these, and I'm responsible for all of them."
"You?"
Wang Yi was a bit surprised:
"Aren't you in a management position?"
"Boss, in a small factory like ours, there are no purely management positions. Everyone does both technical work and management. I was originally a pattern maker; after making the patterns, there was nothing for me to do, that's when I took on management."
"Understood."
Indeed, for small factories like this, cost control is paramount; there isn't such specialized division of labor.
Like Zheng's Leather Shoe Factory, Xu Hui, an accountant managing money, became a head housekeeper, holding multiple positions, directly saving the salaries of several people.
"Okay, you go do it as soon as possible. If there are problems, contact me directly. If you need employees, just call them to help."
"No problem, Boss, there's still a batch of materials in the factory, I can do it myself!"
"He knows how to save costs for the boss, he's a practical person."
Wang Yi formed a preliminary impression in his heart.
After all, if ten people were called, then today he would have to pay ten more people's wages.
Compared to those flatterers, Wang Yi admired subordinates like Wei Ming, who worked diligently and practically, even more!
