Siheyuan: I am Jia Dongxu's cousin

Chapter 161: Father Lou acts as a lobbyist and manufactures quartz watches

"Lao Zhuang, this young man is capable, and we as elders cannot object, don't you think so?"

Hearing Mr. Lou's Versailles words, Zhuang Jing'an rolled his eyes at him, but it was his own fault for asking for help.

"Old Lou, I won't beat around the bush. I want you to help me connect with your son-in-law and see if we can make his quartz watch."

Hearing Zhuang Jing'an's words, Lou's father was stunned for a moment. He was very clear that his old friend's business made most of its profits from OEM mechanical watches. Now he was planning to switch to OEM quartz watches. It seemed that Wei Guo was putting a lot of pressure on him.

"Lao Zhuang, it seems that you have really been trapped by Wei Guo this time."

Father Lou sighed and continued, "Okay, I'll talk to Weiguo for you. I believe he will help you for the sake of my father-in-law."

"Thank you very much." When Zhuang Jing'an heard the reply from Lou's father, he felt relieved, but at the same time, he felt helpless.

Talented people emerge in every generation, and the previous waves die on the beach!

“Lao Zhuang, I have helped you so much, look at your collection of Da Hong Pao…” Father Lou said with a smile.

"I'll have someone send it to you later." Zhuang Jing'an said unhappily.

His Da Hong Pao is from the mother tree, and has been preserved for more than 20 years. It was brought from China. Now that he has given it to Lou's father, it would be a lie to say that he doesn't feel sorry for it.

"That's great!" Hearing Zhuang Jing'an say this, Lou's father was in a good mood. He picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

……

……

After returning home, Lou's father picked up the landline in the study and called Zhang Weiguo.

"Weiguo, it's me."

"Dad? What happened?"

It's no wonder that Zhang Weiguo asked this. After all, it's already past 9 o'clock in the evening. If Mr. Lou hadn't encountered any serious trouble, he wouldn't have called him so late.

Listening to Zhang Weiguo's puzzled questions in the microphone, Father Lou looked out the window at the dark night and gently patted his forehead.

But the call had already been made, and what needed to be said still needed to be said. Father Lou got straight to the point and said, "Weiguo, Dad called you because..."

"..."

After listening to Father Lou, Zhang Weiguo replied straightforwardly: "No problem, just ask Uncle Zhuang to come to the Flower Planting Building to find me tomorrow."

Hearing Zhang Weiguo's straightforward agreement, Lou's father was in high spirits. His son-in-law had given him so much face, so he had to show some appreciation. He immediately said, "Weiguo, Dad just got some good tea here. Ask Xiao'e to get some later."

Listening to what Lou's father said, Zhang Weiguo smiled.

After hanging up the phone, Lou's father felt a little regretful. The tea that Zhuang Jing'an gave him was less than 5 taels in total. If he asked his silly daughter to take it, she would not take it all, right?

When Mr. Lou thought of Lou Xiao'e taking away all the Dahongpao tea he had just gotten, he felt a little pain in his heart and hurried to the cabinet where he kept the tea.

He moved the Dahongpao that he had just bought to another place.

Then I remembered that I had just said on the phone that I had ordered tea for Zhang Weiguo. Wouldn’t it be a bad idea to hide it now?

So Father Lou took out an empty teapot and poured two taels of Hongpao into it.

Looking at the remaining three taels of tea, Father Lou felt that something was not good enough, so he poured out another one tael from the teapot.

"Hmm..., one or two ounces should be enough for Weiguo to drink!!"

After hiding the tea leaves, Lou's father called Zhuang Jing'an and asked him to go to the Flower Planting Building to talk to Zhang Weiguo tomorrow.

After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Jing'an felt a little relieved. He didn't know much about Zhang Weiguo. If the other party didn't even give face to his father-in-law, he would have to consider selling his property and changing his career.

……

……

The next day, Zhuang Jing'an packed his clothes, got in the car, and drove to the Zhonghua Building.

After getting off the car, Zhuang Jing'an looked at the building in front of him and sighed again.

"If Zhang Weiguo were my son-in-law, I would give him to me!"

Zhang Weiguo had given instructions before, and Suo Zhuang Jing'an, led by security personnel, arrived at the door of Zhang Weiguo's office not long after.

Looking at the security guard's right hand about to knock on the door, Zhuang Jing'an became nervous.

Logically speaking, Zhuang Jing'an has been doing business for so many years. Although he is not as rich as the top tycoons in Hong Kong Island, his net worth is also tens of millions. He didn't expect that he would be nervous when meeting a junior this time.

"Alas..." Zhuang Jing'an laughed at himself and followed the security personnel into Zhang Weiguo's office.

"You go out first!" Zhang Weiguo said to the security personnel.

"Good boss!"

After the security personnel left, Zhang Weiguo stood up and personally moved a chair for Zhuang Jing'an.

"Uncle Zhuang, please sit down now. I have a few documents to deal with. They will be ready soon."

Zhang Weiguo returned to his desk again and reviewed the documents.

The reason for moving the chair for Zhuang Jing'an was because of Lou's father's face, and now asking him to wait is also a warning to Zhuang Jing'an.

For the sake of my father-in-law, I can help you, but you must be sensible and not make any excessive demands.

After 10 minutes, Zhang Weiguo put down the pen in his hand.

He stood up and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Uncle Zhuang, I kept you waiting for so long."

"It's okay, it's okay. If you have something to do, Zhang Sheng, go ahead and do it. I'll be fine later."

There was a hint of helplessness in Zhuang Jing'an's humble tone. Who made him need help now?

Although Zhang Weiguo is younger than himself, as the owner of the Flower Planting Group, Zhang Weiguo's status in Hong Kong Island is no less than that of the heads of the four major trading companies.

"Uncle Zhuang, my father-in-law told me about your situation yesterday. I wonder how Uncle Zhuang plans to cooperate with me?" Zhang Weiguo asked directly without any hesitation.

"Huh..." Zhuang Jing'an breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zhang Weiguo's words.

After listening to Zhang Weiguo, the OEM business was basically secured. Now it just depended on how much he could get.

"Mr. Zhang, I am already very satisfied that our banker can manufacture quartz watches for us. The price is fine as long as we don't lose money."

Hearing Zhuang Jing'an say this, Zhang Weiguo secretly said in his heart: "Old fox!"

Even Lou's father called me personally. If I really let Zhuang Jing'an lose money, that would be a slap in Lou's face.

That’s it! That’s it!

Zhang Weiguo originally had no plan to find someone to do the work for him, but for the sake of Lou's father, he decided to let Zhuang Jing'an make some profit!

"Uncle Zhuang, the cost of producing a quartz watch is 40 Hong Kong dollars. I will give you 50 Hong Kong dollars for the production cost. How do you feel, Uncle Zhuang?"

Hearing Zhang Weiguo's words, Zhuang Jing'an was shocked and secretly regretted his choice of OEM quartz watches.

The cost is 40 and the selling price is 1000, this is simply huge profit!

When quartz watches start to drop in price, the end of mechanical watches will really come.

No! It's here now.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang!" Zhuang Jing'an did not bargain. After all, Zhang Weiguo allowed him to manufacture quartz watches out of respect for Lou's father. If he bargained now, it would make him seem like a bad person.
