The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 343 Wu Juan buys a house

At this time, in a messy warehouse in the port city.

Yan Jiefang is directing several workers to dismantle refrigerators, color TVs and washing machines.

Xu Damao bought these from the scrapyard at a slightly higher price than the scraps.

The disassembled parts are all placed in three piles in order, one pile is usable, one pile is completely scrapped, and the other pile needs repair.

The pile of completely scrapped parts will be sent back to the scrap station after being dismantled, and the rest should be repaired or refurbished.

After the accessories are cleaned up, they will be assembled together, and the assembled electrical appliances will be divided into three levels according to their newness and age.

First-class goods are 95 new, and you can’t tell they are second-hand goods from the outside. They are also the most expensive, with wholesale prices reaching about 70% of new goods.

Second-class goods are more than 85 new, and the price can reach half of new goods. The rest are third-class goods, and the wholesale price is only 30% of new goods.

When they first came here, there were just a few of them and they couldn't assemble a few machines in a day, but hiring locals was too expensive and not worth it.

Xu Damao could only wait for a few people from China to be brought over every time he went to the other side to ship goods. The salary Xu Damao paid them was only about one-third of the local people.

But this also makes many people struggle to work here. After all, one-third of the salary is more than 300 yuan per month, which is several times higher than the salary in China.

Slowly, Xu Damao's factory has grown from a few people at the beginning to a team of hundreds of people now.

Including Yan Jiefang and others, the entire factory has gathered more than 130 people, and it has grown from working alone at the beginning to a regular team now.

The work distribution of several people is also very reasonable. Xu Damao is mainly responsible for finance and sales, and Yan Jiefang and his wife are responsible for the management of the factory.

Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangfu are responsible for logistics, mainly contacting the scrap station and transporting the electrical appliances collected by the scrap station back to the factory.

Then the electrical appliances produced by the factory are shipped according to the orders given by Xu Damao. Now the entire factory can assemble 70 or 80 various refrigerators, color TVs or washing machines every day.

The scale of the factory has reached its peak, not because there are no sales, but because the raw materials cannot keep up. The port city is so big, with a population of only a few million, and the electrical appliances people buy are unlikely to break down.

There are only so many second-hand parts available, and he can also buy new ones for assembly.

But the electrical appliances assembled in this way are much more expensive than those produced in regular factories.

Even if the selling price is the same as that of a regular factory, you are still losing money, and the quality is not as good as the products produced by regular factories.

But Xu Damao was unwilling to let his career stagnate, so he could only think of other ways.

He plans to import from countries such as Japan, South Korea and Singapore. After this period of understanding, he knows that the labor costs in these countries are very high and there is no market for second-hand electrical appliances in these countries.

But there is also an advantage to this, that is, the used electrical appliances on the market can only be treated as scrap. After all, people's incomes are so high. If the electrical appliance breaks down, it is better to buy a new one. Unlike in China, it can be repaired and used for three years.

"Jiefang, when will Brother Mao come back?" Liu Guangfu, wearing a suit and a pair of big leather shoes, walked in from outside and asked Yan Jiefang.

After all, he is also the deputy general manager of the Logistics Department of Hong Kong Mao Electric Co., Ltd., so he still needs to pay more attention to his superficial image.

After hearing Liu Guangfu's words, Yan Jiefang lowered his head and looked at his watch and said:

"It should be almost there. You'd better drive there quickly. If not, just wait there for a while. If Brother Mao arrives and doesn't see you, he'll lose his temper again." After speaking, Yan Jiefang turned around and directed the workers to work.

"Okay, I'll go then. I don't know why, but Brother Mao has been getting more and more angry recently." Liu Guangfu complained, turned around, left the factory, and drove away in a Toyota Hiace.

Since the 1970s, minivans that can carry people and pull goods have become popular on the streets of Hong Kong.

After Xu Damao earned money, he also bought one, and usually kept it in the factory for Liu Guangfu to drive to the scrapyard to collect goods.

For this reason, Xu Damao also bought a driver's license for Liu Guangfu. After all, he was also the owner of a factory with hundreds of people. How could he go out without a driver? It would not be a loss of face.

Liu Guangfu also had another job since then, that is, Xu Damao's driver and bodyguard.

"Jiefang, how much do you think our family can get this month?" At this time, Wu Juan, who was standing by, came over and handed Yan Jiefang a glass of water and asked.

When Xu Damao was working at the factory, he had promised that Yan Jiefang and his wife would hold 10% of the shares in the factory, while Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangqi would each hold 5%.

After all, Xu Damao had no one around him at that time, so he could only win over a few people through this method.

The reason why they were given 10% of the shares was because Yan Jiefang had the skills, while Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangtian could only do some hard work.

"It's definitely more than last month. This month's shipments are half more than last month. If you calculate it this way, you can still get 20,000 this month." Yan Jiefang took a sip of water and thought for a while.

"Jiefang, you asked me whether our family should buy a house here. When Liu Guangqi's wife and I were shopping in the morning, we happened to see a building open for sale, priced at two hundred and eighty-eight Hong Kong dollars per foot.

We don’t need to buy a big house, just a 700-square-foot house with two bedrooms and one living room. When the time comes, we can also take our son over, what do you think?"

"Why do you think of buying a house? Didn't we agree to go back when we make money? Besides, even if it's 288 square feet, it's still over 200,000 yuan. How can our family have so much money?"

"I've inquired about it. You can pay in installments. A down payment of 20,000 yuan will suffice. If that doesn't work, you can also pay 10% down, but the interest rate is a bit high."

"Let's forget it. Excluding the shared area, a 700-square-foot house only has more than 40 square meters in our hands. There are four people in our family. How can we live in such a spacious place, and we will have to repay the loan in the future."

Yan Jiefang was a little hesitant. Although he was making money here with Xu Damao, he never thought about staying here in the future. After all, his parents were still in the capital.

Besides, although there is a lot of money here, the expenses are also high. A house of more than 40 square meters costs more than 200,000 yuan. This amount of money can be used to buy a courtyard house in the capital. It will be so comfortable to live there.

"It's enough for us to live in. Let's take Zi Ming over. As for Zi Qing, let her stay in the capital and let her fulfill her filial piety for us when the elderly rarely have a home."

"This...Zi Qing will also get married in the future."

"When you marry, you also marry in the capital. It's close and you can take care of your grandparents and grandparents.

That's it. It's settled that our family will buy a house when Xu Damao pays out this month's dividends. I've made an agreement with Liu Guangqi's wife that our two families will buy it together. This way we will be close and we can visit each other if nothing happens."

Without waiting for Yan Jiefang to object to Wu Juan, he made up his mind to buy a house in Hong Kong City. When the house comes down, he will take over Xiao Ziming. As for Xiao Ziqing, she will marry an outsider anyway. It doesn't matter whether she comes or not. Let her stay in the capital.

That's pretty good.

As soon as the two of them finished discussing the house, the sound of a car sounded outside, and then Xu Damao got out of the car and walked towards the factory.

"Brother Mao, how's it going? Did the job go well?" Seeing Xu Damao come back, Yan Jiefang quickly got up and walked over and asked.

"Don't worry, I've already done it myself. What else can happen? Let's go to the hotel to celebrate later. I'll just split last month's money between you. Guangfu, go and call your brother over."

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Liu Guangfu turned around and walked out. Xu Damao then walked around the factory and saw that Yan Jiefang's management was okay and the workers were working on the apartments in their hands in an orderly manner.

"Mr. Xu, how much money will our family get from this dividend?" Seeing that Xu Damao was in a good mood, Wu Juan couldn't help but ask.

"What, your family needs money?" Xu Damao turned around and glanced at Wu Juan and asked curiously.

"It's like this. Our family plans to buy a house here and take the children over. We've already found out the price. It's two hundred and eighty-eight square feet. Our family will buy it together with Liu Guangqi's family. Do you want to buy it? You can pay it in installments.

, the down payment is only 20%." Seeing that Xu Damao was not angry, Wu Juan asked again.

"Okay, Jiefang, we have to buy a house. How big is the area? If you don't have enough money, tell me. After all, we came here together. If you have any difficulties, just ask."

"Thank you, Mr. Xu. The family's money should be enough. Besides, isn't this going to be a dividend?"

"Brother Mao, we are here." As he spoke, Liu Guangfu walked in with Liu Guangqi.

"It's almost time. Jiefang, let the workers get off work. Let's go to dinner." Xu Damao looked at his watch and said to Yan Jiefang.

After the workers had all left, a few people drove to a nearby restaurant. After eating, Xu Damao took out his bag and started handing out money without waiting for them to speak.

"Last month our factory's profit was 280,000 yuan, the Jiefang family received 28,000 yuan, and Guangqi and Guangfu each received 14,000 yuan."

"Thank you, Brother Mao. Thank you, Brother Mao." After receiving the money, the few people thanked Xu Damao profusely. If Xu Damao hadn't brought them here, how would they be able to live the life they live now? If they stayed in China and only relied on working to earn wages, they would probably live their whole lives.

I can't save so much money.

"Okay, no need to talk nonsense, you guys just follow me, Xu Damao, and work hard. Don't worry, as long as I, Xu Damao, are with you for a day, I will definitely not treat you badly." Xu Damao waved his hand and said.

"We will definitely follow him and work hard. We still don't know who Brother Mao is. If we follow Brother Mao, we will definitely be successful."

"Okay, if you don't have anything to do, just leave. I'm going to Taiwan in a few days. You guys stay here and watch the factory for me, so nothing happens."

"If anything happens with us here, you can go with peace of mind. By the way, why don't you take Guangfu with you when you go to Taiwan this time? Let Guangfu follow you and run some errands for you." Liu Guangqi suggested.

"Okay, then let Guangfu follow. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. You guys can go back too," Xu Damao thought for a while and thought, he is a person now, how can he go out without a younger brother.

After sending Xu Damao and others back to the dormitory, they went to see Wu Juan the next day and took out the family's savings. Including the dividend this time, the total was more than 40,000 yuan. They called Liu Guangqi's daughter-in-law to come to the sales office.

at.

They planned to buy a house today. Since Liu Guangqi's family did not earn as much as Yan Jiefang, they could only make a 10% down payment.

The houses bought by the two families are the same size, and they are opposite each other. After all, they have no acquaintances here. Living together can have someone to chat with and someone to take care of them if anything happens.
