Chapter 57: Chapter 50: Opportunities in Industrial Investment (Seeking Recommendations!)_2
So Tang Qing suspects the system of forging money, but not really forging banknotes, after all, the system also involves the issue of transfer. It’s possible to forge banknotes, but how can one forge transfer amount, which is funds recognized and tagged by the Federal Reserve.
It’s a currency recognized worldwide, so he can only speculate that the system has tampered with the currency filings at the Federal Reserve, thus being able to provide dollars in cash and transfer without restraint or limitation.
"It’s pretty good, based on the large order last time, business has been going well recently, and the factory is also expanding, machines, equipment and staff have all increased a lot," Zhang Dongqing replied.
However, he couldn’t dismiss the thought in his heart, but it doesn’t matter how Tang Qing handles it, it has nothing to do with him anymore. He also decided never to ask Tang Qing and Liu Qian about the transaction content. He doesn’t want to know anything.
"That’s good, if there’s any difficulty, I’ve got some money here," Tang Qing said with a smile, not caring about whatever Zhang Dongqing had discovered. He believed that Zhang Dongqing was a smart man and would never stir up trouble for him.
"There’s no need, our expansion has been based on the orders we received, if there isn’t a large amount of orders in a short period of time, we won’t need that much," said Zhang Dongqing, waving his hand. He was cautious, he didn’t want to impulsively expand and put himself in a dangerous situation. He had seen too many examples of this, otherwise his factory wouldn’t have survived until now.
"Okay, if you need funds, don’t hesitate to ask me," assured Tang Qing with a smile.
"Haha, good, no problem," said Zhang Dongqing with a laugh.
Just as he finished speaking, the door to the box was pushed open, both men looked up to see Lu Jianhui came in holding a bag.
"Brother Zhang, Little Tang, sorry I’m late." Lu Jianhui sat down beside Zhang Dongqing with a smile and placed the bag on the stool next to him.
Next was the repayment. As soon as the system collected it, it could identify the authenticity and quantity; Tang Qing was too lazy to count, he simply opened the bag and skimmed through it. If the count was right, that would do; otherwise, not even bothering to look would be too much.
"Little Tang, I want to thank you so much for this time, cheers," Lu Jianhui said, lifting his glass in a toast. Of course, Tang Qing had class in the afternoon and he couldn’t possibly drink alcohol, so he drank tea instead. Zhang Dongqing was also drinking tea, as he had to drive later on. Rumor has it that drunk driving checks were quite strict recently. Even though he had some connections, he didn’t want to take unnecessary risks, as people do have to return favours, and he preferred to save them when possible.
"Mr. Lu, you’re too kind. Thanks to Uncle Zhang’s connection, I absolutely trust Mr. Lu’s character. We should have the chance to cooperate in the future," said Tang Qing, standing up and clinking glasses.
"Yes, business has been pretty good in recent times. Sigh, if only I had the capital, I was planning to buy out the factory next to mine," said Lu Jianhui, lamenting after downing a whole glass of Baijiu.
"What kind of factory?" Tang Qing asked casually. Carrying on the conversation is a basic skill, no talks can be continued without responding.
"It’s a clothing factory like mine. Three months ago, the owner suddenly fell seriously ill and was hospitalized. His wife passed away a few years ago and their only daughter rushed back to take over once she quit her job.
However, things in the factory have been getting worse because her daughter lacks experience, and as her seriously ill father needs both care and money, she’s considering selling the factory. Including factory building, machines and equipment, she asks 5 million for it, which is quite a fair price considering the size of the factory.
If I hadn’t been short of cash, I would have wanted to buy it even if I needed to borrow money."
Lu Jianhui said with a bit of disappointment as he took a bite of his food.
"Oh? If Mr. Lu says it’s good, then it must be. I’m quite interested in this factory," said Tang Qing with enthusiasm upon hearing this. With all the money he was making from the money exchange business, and the pending task of owning property, he had been thinking of getting involved in the industry. He needs to have his own business but he didn’t know what to do because he wasn’t familiar with any of them.
He can’t just go into farming right? He didn’t have as many brilliant ideas as the protagonists in novels, or such good luck, where everything he does turns out successful. In his past life, he was just an ordinary person, and rebirth has not changed much. But his ambition to be a boss was many, very full, big, very big, enormous...
Upon hearing that there was an opportunity, Tang Qing immediately became interested. Clothing manufacturing seemed like a good business. His money had no better use than this, so he might as well keep busy.
"What, Little Tang, you have such amount of money?" Lu Jianhui looked up at Tang Qing in surprise the moment he heard this and Zhang Dongqing also stopped eating and looked at Tang Qing, awaiting his response.
"Hehe, I don’t have such amount of money, my partner does, it’s just all under my name," Tang Qing said with a faint smile. n𝚘vp𝚞𝚋.com
"What is Little Tang planning to do with it, OEM?" Lu Jianhui asked further, he was no longer doubtful upon hearing that Tang Qing’s partner doesn’t mind spending millions.
"No, no, no, I didn’t plan to work on OEM. I want to create my own brand," Tang Qing said assertively, this was his true idea, building a brand is more worth doing than OEM. As a reincarnator, being an OEM contractor would be too disgraceful, no matter how much money he would earn, he doesn’t believe he couldn’t establish a brand by putting enough money into it.
"You want to build a brand? Little Tang, it’s not something one can simply achieve by spending some cash," Lu Jianhui said surprisingly. There were not many garment factories, either his or nationally, that built their own brand. Most of the factories were handling OEM orders and producing some no-brand products for wholesale.
Although the threshold to create a brand was low, it was challenging to upscale, only the ones who spent a large amount of money to push can make it, and they had already entered the realm of capital operation.
"Of course I understand, but there is nothing impossible for a willing heart," said Tang Qing confidently.
"Okay, I’ll introduce you then. We can become neighbors. If you’re overloaded with orders, remember to give us some," Lu Jianhui said without asking further.
The same profession makes us rivals, but a powerful rival could probably be a potential partner. His life belief is to make friends with the influential ones instead of making enemies; the latter is too exhausting.
"Okay, no problem," Tang Qing agreed, he had already considered borrowing money from Liu Qian the next month for funds in the stock market. With his current credit, borrowing a million or two would be simple.
Worst case scenario, he owns a factory which he can mortgage to a bank or local people to get a loan. There were many ways to get money now, not just the small amounts of tens of thousands like before. Once you have money and property, anything is possible.
"I’m gonna make a call now. I know Little Tang is busy, let’s not wait for another day. She lives nearby, she will arrive soon if she can make it. Let me ask her first," Lu Jianhui, being an impatient man with quick reactions, knew that Tang Qing didn’t have time due to his studies and it’s best to proceed with the initial understanding now and leave the field investigation for the next time.
He sees great potential in Tang Qing, and he put in great effort to win over this future big client.
