Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 294 Look at the venue

After an hour's drive, we finally arrived near the Hong Kong Island International Airport, which had just begun construction. Before we even got there, Li Chengwen started complaining that the distance was too far.

It was very different from the place he was looking for in Qizhou. In Qizhou, he could ride a bicycle there. If he rode a motorcycle, he could get there in more than 20 minutes, which was very convenient.

Li Weidong sat in the car and listened quietly without speaking. The distance in a straight line was only a few kilometers, but because there was a sea in the middle, he could only go in a big circle, and the distance was naturally far.

Moreover, there were more cars in the morning, and it was rush hour. It was difficult to avoid traffic jams, and it was not easy to get up quickly. Not only did his father start to complain, but he also felt that it was a bit far.

After finally driving to the location, I saw a rectangular steel structure factory building with gray-white walls and a blue roof. It looked very beautiful from a distance. At the gate, there were a few piles of steel pipes that were difficult for one person to wrap around. They had become blackened by the wind and sun.

log.

Li Chengwen looked at the factory and was a little confused. It was different from the carpenter's shop he expected. The carpenter's shop he wanted was just a front door with a yard behind it.

The area doesn't need to be too big. Seventy or eighty square meters is enough for two or three people. This factory building must be several hundred square meters, which is a bit too big for him.

The landlord had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Luo Jialiang getting out of the car, he greeted him and handed him a cigarette. Luo Jialiang looked at it and although he took it, he was somewhat reluctant.

Now he no longer smokes this kind of cigarettes. He mainly smokes cigars. However, in front of Li Weidong, he does not dare to pretend to be garlic. The boss does not smoke cigars. If he smokes cigars here, it will be a bit disrespectful.

The boss lost face.

The landlord said politely: "Boss Luo, we have contacted you on the phone. Yesterday you also sent someone to come and take a look. This is the factory, which is almost 1,000 square meters. There are several machines in it that are in use because we can't afford the environmental protection fee."

It had to stop.”

The landlord continued: "It will only be there for two or three years, but it has been maintained and it will definitely be able to be used normally. If you want to rent it, these machines will be given to you for free."

Luo Jialiang looked at Li Weidong and Li Chengwen and said directly: "Boss Zhang, open the door and let us go in and take a look. We can't bid without looking at things."

The landlord said: "Yes, yes, please come in!"

Luo Jialiang did not introduce Li Weidong to the landlord. The landlord was not stupid and did not take the initiative to ask. If he did not introduce him, he had no intention of getting to know him and he would not offend potential customers.

The door was opened, and the inside of the factory was quite clean. There were some boards piled neatly in the corner, a few electric saws and planers, and spray painting equipment nearby.

Li Weidong was quite satisfied with the factory building when he saw it, but it was somewhat inconsistent with his expectations. They both felt the same. It was a little too big and did not meet Li Weidong's intention of making a small fuss.

Li Weidong asked: "Dad, are you satisfied with this factory? If yes, can we rent it?"

Li Chengwen looked around and looked around, looking like an expert, but the things inside were mainly electrical tools. There were basically no planes, chisels, hand saws, ink fountains, etc. that he wanted to see.

He has seen and used these things, but he is not used to them. He feels that these things can easily make people waste their previous skills. In the past, whether the wood could be cut into straight lines was an assessment item. Now that we have a chainsaw, we can make the guide rails.

Nothing is not straight.

Li Chengwen said: "It's good, but it's so big that we can't use it all. This place is also very remote. Whoever comes here to buy things will not be able to sell the goods without being close to the street or market."

"Dad, where can you find the kind of thing you want now? In front of the city and in the backyard, ten years ago, there might have been something like this. Now big cities don't allow you to do this in the busy city."

"You don't care whether it's big or not, whether it's on the street or not. As long as you're satisfied, we'll rent it. As long as the product is good, don't worry about selling it. Don't you have confidence in your craftsmanship?"

Li Weidong used a little provocation. Li Chengwen also knew what Li Weidong meant, but it was impossible to deny him his skills.

"Don't do this to me. How can the things I make not be sold? As for the furniture in your house, I can't make any of it. If you spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy it, I think you have the money to burn it."

Li Weidong said as soon as he heard this: "Okay, let's rent this place. Just look at what tools are missing. We'll buy them all in a while, and we'll start work on the eighth day of the lunar month in two days."

Li Chengwen looked at the factory building again and stopped talking. It could be seen that there was still some hesitation in his eyes.

Li Weidong asked: "What's wrong? Are there any other questions?"

Li Weidong hesitated and said: "This place is good, but it is too far from our home. I have to ask for a car to be delivered for more than an hour every morning. How much money do I have to earn to earn the gas money?"

"Dad, don't worry about this. It won't cost you more than a few gas dollars. Don't forget that those solid wood furniture are not valuable in our place, but they are very valuable in Hong Kong Island and the profit is huge."

"Just say that our reclining chair can be sold for thirty or forty yuan in the Qizhou market. If you go to the furniture market on Hong Kong Island, you won't find it worth 1,800 yuan. Don't even think about it."

"If the materials used are better, a stool can be sold for thousands of dollars. By then you will be rich, and you still care about the gas money."

"If you're worried about it for a long time, let's take a boat over. I just saw that there is a pier next to here. Let's find out later if there is a boat coming to our area."

When Li Weidong said this, he was also thinking that if there was no ferry boat, couldn't he just buy a small fishing boat? This distance would be as high as half an hour.

This is an inland sea, and there are no big winds or waves, so safety is no problem. If a typhoon comes and the whole city suspends work and classes, of course you have to rest at home!

Li Chengwen added: "That won't work either. I can only do anything myself. I'm still thinking of finding two apprentices!"

Li Weidong looked at Luo Jialiang, it was obvious that he needed to solve this problem.

Luo Jialiang already knew Li Weidong's intention to find a furniture factory on the way here. This was because the old man wanted to make a living, and he wanted to be satisfied no matter what.

Now looking at Li Weidong's eyes, he knew that this matter must fall on him, so he smiled and said: "Uncle Li, I have a few friends who didn't learn well when they were young, and now they don't have any skills. They don't have any skills."

Making a living and living are difficult.”

"If they can learn some crafts, they will be able to use their skills and find a decent job in the future. If you can have a kind heart, you can accept them and give them a way to survive. You have a bodhisattva heart."

.”

Li Chengwen looked at Luo Jialiang in confusion. Although he didn't know what Luo Jialiang had done recently, he also knew that he already had some energy. He used to take the bus, but now he has bought a car. If he arranged for a few friends, wouldn't he have some connections?

However, Li Chengwen was still deceived by the words "Bodhisattva's Heart". The older people get, the more superstitious they become, and the more they believe that by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, going to hell and going to heaven are just a few moments away from each other.

Li Chengwen nodded and agreed. Now he no longer had any doubts. He looked at the landlord next to him and asked in half-baked Cantonese: "How much do you plan to rent this house for?"

Before the landlord could reply, Luo Jialiang saw Li Weidong wink at him and said quickly: "Uncle Li, you don't have to worry about this little thing, I will definitely negotiate the lowest price!"

Li Chengwen glanced at his son and knew that it was Li Weidong's intention. This would save him trouble, so he nodded without saying anything and started walking around the factory.

Li Weidong looked at the Hong Kong Island Airport under construction vaguely visible in the distance. He felt something in his heart and waved to Luo Jialiang. Luo Jialiang stopped negotiating with the landlord and ran over.

Li Weidong said: "Ask the landlord whether the factory can be sold, and whether the land below can be sublet together?"

Land in Hong Kong Island is not personal. It needs to be leased from government departments and has a certain period of use. However, this period is relatively long. The leased land can be subleased to individuals.

If Li Weidong doesn't clear up the land under the factory, the factory he bought will be of little use. If he has the land use rights, even if he demolishes the factory and builds something new, he only needs to submit it to the government for approval.

Luo Jialiang nodded, went back to the side, and chatted with the landlord again!

Li Weidong walked out of the factory building. This location is at a relatively high altitude. The sea level in the distance can be clearly seen, and the yachts and cargo ships drifting on the sea are looming.

When Li Weidong saw Ding Yuan following behind, he casually asked: "Where is that cruiser now?"
