Chapter 327 Wei Jia: You really are my "real dad"!
Reading Settings
"As for Wang Zhiqing, hehe..." The brigade leader sneered, unleashing his full power once again, showing no intention of giving the other party any face.
"Don't take advantage of your city background. There are so many city people, do you really think they're all the same? Some city people are even worse than us country folk. The things you did before were disastrous, and they would never let you into such an important place as the marketing department."
Besides, let's not even talk about Xie Zhiqing and the others' abilities. Just look at our textile factory. Haven't you always been curious about where our brigade headquarters got so much money to ask Bai Zhiqing to buy a whole ten textile machines?
I'll tell you the truth now: our brigade headquarters only has three thousand yuan in total. It's all been saved up little by little by Secretary Lu and me over the years. A lot of it came from selling livestock at the commune, and some of it was earned by hunting in the mountains and exchanging the animals with the commune every year.
I know some people think that our brigade headquarters usually hoards money, which is why we were able to buy ten machines at once. Use your brains to think about it. Where did you get so much money from me to hoard?
Listen up, all of you. The rest of the money was all invested by Bai and the other educated youth with their own money. Bai invested two thousand, Fang Zhiqing called back and invested one thousand, and Xie, You, Sun, Chao, and Qin invested a total of one thousand. In the end, they still owed them three thousand yuan.
"This was only possible because Bai, the educated youth, pulled some strings and got an IOU for three thousand yuan. He'd pay it back in monthly installments once the textile factory started making a profit. Otherwise, do you think this textile factory was built? By a few selfish, troublesome troublemakers like you who only know how to seek benefits for yourselves?"
The brigade leader's voice grew louder with each word, especially when he talked about the money the educated youth had invested in the factory. He seemed to be emphasizing every word, as if each word was a slap in the face of those who were causing trouble.
The captain coldly watched Wang Mudan and the Liu family members, whose faces were grim, as well as the remaining few who were joining the Liu family in making a fuss and trying to take advantage of the situation.
"Don't say I'm biased or not on your side. Here's the thing: our textile factory still owes someone three thousand yuan for machinery. If you're capable, you can do what some of the educated youth did and put your money into the factory. If you're capable, go work in the factory. If you're not, don't come and mess with our textile factory. Just wait patiently for the year-end bonus. But we have to make it clear beforehand: if you get any of those odds and ends used to humiliate us, you'll have to pay at least five hundred. If you're interested, you can register at the factory's logistics department."
"What, five hundred?"
Liu Qingrong was initially somewhat tempted. He frequently traveled to the county and had heard his father-in-law mention that some old capitalists used to donate their ancestral businesses to the country as an investment in national development, and they would receive a dividend every year, which was a considerable sum of money.
He was thinking of discussing it with his parents later, asking for fifty or a hundred yuan, and then taking a sinecure position in the factory, where he could just wait for the money to be distributed each year. Wouldn't that be much better than working himself to the bone in the factory?
result……
Five hundred? Even before his family split up, they didn't have that much money.
Wang Mudan's face was extremely ugly, and she looked at Bai Nuo and the others with jealousy. She had always known that they were well-off, but she never expected that they could come up with so much money all at once.
Her family is well-off; both her parents work. They certainly have 500 yuan, but it's impossible for them to give it to her. Let alone 500 yuan, they wouldn't even give her 50 yuan.
"Why is it that we only get 500 as the team leader? Sun Yuxi, Chao Xianhua, and the others only get 1000 together. Isn't this favoritism?" Wang Mudan was unwilling to give up so easily.
Since marrying into the Liu family, although the family had separated, Old Mrs. Liu favored her youngest son and, relying on the fact that they were given the eldest son's family, still lived in the old courtyard. Therefore, they didn't receive much money at all when the family was divided.
Moreover, the money from the family division was always in Liu Dazhu's hands. He would only give her a dime or a half on weekdays. She couldn't even afford a face cream, and she still had to take care of the whole family. Her life was not as good as when she was in the educated youth compound. Where was she going to get five hundred?
Wei Zhongping curled his lip and rolled his eyes impatiently. He really looked down on those who had no self-awareness whatsoever.
"The five of them, including Xie Zhiqing, pooled together 1,000 yuan, saying that they would each own 1% of the shares. As for how to divide the profits after that, that's their own business. If you're so capable, go find someone to pool your money too."
At that moment, the people below who were making a ruckus fell silent.
Those who cause trouble are mostly resentful, selfish, and greedy individuals who want to take advantage of others. It's impossible for them to pool their money with others to invest in a textile factory and then share the profits. Everyone wants to keep their share for themselves.
However, this does offer new ideas for other quick-thinking and intelligent people.
Believe it or not, there was actually a family that pooled together 500 yuan and registered at the textile factory. Whether they could get a job depended on the exam, but if they invested money in the textile factory, they could get a share of the profits at the end of the year, and it wouldn't interfere with their work in the fields.
However, the saying "investment involves risk" is always true in any era. So before registering them, Wei Jia, who was in charge of the factory's logistics, explained the risks word by word, which dissuaded some people.
In the end, only the family of Tie Jinhua, the head of the breeding team, Yao Hongguo's family who had just returned from their divorce, Wei Zhong'an from the second branch of the Wei family, Wei Zhongfu, his cousin, Lu Wenhua and Mu Rujun from the first branch of the Lu family, and Wei Qiang and his wife, the eldest son of the Wei family, signed the shareholding agreement.
