The Rebirth of 88s Begins with a Carpenter

Chapter 1300 Turn passivity into initiative and prepare for a rainy day

Tan Qiang’s idea is simple.

 He wanted to come forward and make up for the shortcomings of the Mandife Furniture Factory's lack of a marketing department.

Wu Yuan didn't know what stimulated the top student in front of him and generated such motivation.

  But this is something he is happy to see happen.

Naturally, he agreed without hesitation, and at the same time, this conversation was brought to a successful conclusion.

 After sending off Tan Qiang, Luo Dongmei also came to report in time.

  Part of the work of the Foreign Trade Department is to receive orders from Fendi, and the other part is also due to some orders brought by Fendi's sales traffic in Southeast Asia.

“Boss, Fendi’s OEM orders are continuing to increase. According to Ms. Sarah, most of them are generated from your Asian Games Village apartment project in BJ.”

Wu Yuan nodded, Sara was an old friend, and she was quite candid in this regard.

“In addition, Mandife Furniture’s orders in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are also growing. Although the scale is not as large and stable as the factory’s traditional orders, it is a good start.”

“Moreover, when I recently reported to Deputy Director Lin and Deputy Director He, I learned that the factory’s production capacity is always at full capacity.”

“Your factory did a good job in the first half of the year!” Wu Yuan first affirmed the overall situation.

Then he said: "Tengda's renovation project is progressing steadily. In theory, your factory will have no shortage of furniture orders, but this is far from your ceiling."

“Now that the national economy is so underdeveloped, how strong is the demand for mid-to-high-end furniture? I believe you all feel the same way. In time, what will happen after the economy is gradually opened up and the national economy develops rapidly?”

“Obviously, the potential of this part of the market is very large. So while you are doing the work at hand, you must also make preparations in advance. Tan Qiang, for example, is very good. He takes the initiative to shoulder the burden, and your Ministry of Foreign Trade will fully cooperate.”

“I hope you can jointly seize the opportunity of the sharp rise in the market in the future and sell Mandifei furniture to the world.”

After chatting with Luo Dongmei, Wu Yuan went directly to the workshop.

The machines in the workshop were roaring, and the workers were sweating profusely. Even if the air conditioner was running well, it was still a bit unbearable.

Wu Yuan simply went outside the workshop with He Yunhui and leaned under the shade of the tree in front of the door.

The two brothers nodded together and lit a cigarette.

He Yunhui took a long breath, and the smoke that came out was also long and long.

Wu Yuan saw the clues and said: "Senior brother, look at your posture, you are not young or old under pressure?"

He Yunhui waved his hand and said: "After I became the deputy director of the factory, I discovered that leadership is really not something that ordinary people can do. Thank you for not letting me be the director of the factory. Now I know that I can't be the director of the factory."

“…You should hurry up and train Miao Miao, and she will take over the position of factory director in the future. Young people are always more aggressive and motivated than those older than me.”

Wu Yuan laughed and said: "This matter is still far away, senior brother. Besides, I am not here today to talk to you about this matter."

He Yunhui laughed and said: "I know, I will tell you in advance."

Wu Yuan suggested: "If that's not possible, bring the sister-in-law and the children over. With your current salary and conditions, it's not like you can't support them."

He Yunhui hesitated for a moment, and then said vaguely: "Let's talk about it later."

Wu Yuan emphasized: "Okay, senior brother, think about it carefully. Anyway, I am serious. With them here to accompany you, you can be less stressed."

“…As for the work in the workshop and production safety, you really need to worry more about it, Senior Brother.”

The conversation with He Yunhui lasted for a full cigarette.

Wu Yuan gave his senior brother another piece of money and went straight to the sewing workshop. Actually, there is nothing much to talk about Lin Miaomiao. We just met two days ago and everything that needs to be said has been said.

Wu Yuan showed up just to check in.

Just when he was about to leave, Shi Lin, who had always been silent, suddenly ran out and said: "Uncle, I have always wanted to see Wen Yong, but my aunt doesn't allow it."

Wu Yuan smiled. This was the first time Shi Lin had sued Miaomiao.

But after the farewell, the girl cried first and said: "I heard from my family that I can't visit the doctor at night. I just thought that I would go to see Wen Yong after I have rest on Sunday."

Wu Yuan comforted him: "Anyway, Wen Yong has to stay in the hospital for ten days and a half, and he won't be able to leave for a while. If you want to see him, you can go see him on Sunday. But don't spend money blindly, Miaomiao won't allow it." You are lying, firstly because I have strict requirements on you as a little leader, and secondly because I am afraid that you will spend money randomly."

Shi Lin grasped the key point from these words and said: "Is it serious for Wen Yong to stay in a hospital for such a long time?"

Wu Yuan smiled and said: "It takes a hundred days to break the muscles and bones. This operation is on his leg. Doesn't he have to stay in the hospital for a while to recuperate? Don't worry, the operation was successful."

Shi Lin let out a sigh, as if a stone had been lifted from her heart.

“Okay, let’s go and do your work. Come to the hospital when you come back on Sunday. Your aunt will be there too.”

 “Well, uncle, I’m going to do some work.”

 After leaving Mandifei Furniture Factory, Wu Yuan returned to Qihua Building not long after that, he got off work early and went to Huashan Hospital.

Knowing that his fourth brother-in-law Zhong Zhentao was leaving today, he couldn't just send him off at the right time.

lest the other party has an idea and leaves first, but ends up causing trouble.

Even so, when Wu Yuan arrived, Zhong Zhentao had already picked up his luggage and was ready to leave.

Wu Yuan looked at his watch, checked the time again and said, "Fourth brother-in-law, what time is it? What time do you have your ticket and are you leaving now?"

Before Zhong Zhentao could answer, Wu Fanghua said first, "Brother Yao, he's on the seven o'clock train."

Wu Yuan snatched the luggage bag from Zhong Zhentao's hand and said, "Then why are you in a hurry? I'll take you there in a car later, and I'll make sure you don't miss the bus."

Zhong Zhentao shook his head and said, "I can't bother you with everything."

"What are you talking about?" Wu Yuan glared and said, "Have I not been in Shanghai for so many years? If you come here, if you don't bother me, who will bother you?"

Then he made up his mind and said: "Listen to me, you must finish your dinner here before leaving."

Zhong Zhentao was left behind, and Wu Yuan noticed that Lu Huan was also there.

 It can be seen that Lu Huan is in a good mood, probably because the report card results are very good.

As expected, when Lu Huan saw him freeing up his hands, he ran over and said, "Uncle Wu, he looks down on my grades! Well, when he calls tomorrow to ask about my grades, I have to be there."

Wu Yuan said seriously: "Yes, keep an eye on him tomorrow and have a good comparison with him."

As soon as Lu Huan turned around, he changed his tone and said, "See, even Uncle Wu supports me!"

 But Wu Yuan secretly complained, I hope you won’t feel the shock is too big after you know the result tomorrow.

At this time, Wu Fanghua mentioned: "In the morning, Ming Jun came and bought a gift for Ming Qi."

As soon as he said this, Wu Yuan suddenly remembered: "By the way, there is also a gift from a police officer in the car. I asked Ming Dynasty to send it up."
