The seaside park is built on the west bank of the harbor, just inside the most prosperous Nancheng District.
People in this era have few leisure and entertainment options, and parks are the main places. The seaside park is unique. The shore promenade is lined with tall coconut trees on both sides. The tidal flat is covered with mangroves unique to the southern coastal areas, and there are flocks of seagulls.
It flutters its wings, sometimes soaring in the blue sky, sometimes flying close to the sea.
The seaside park will be more beautiful thirty years later, but the seaside park in the 1990s has a more original and natural flavor.
Yao Yuan looked far into the distance and saw that the east coast of the harbor was in a state of depression. As far as he could see, except for the naval fleet base, the rest were tidal flats and fields.
Before the development of Haidong, there was a saying that had been circulating in Nangang for a long time - I would rather have a bed in Haixi than a house in Haidong. At this time, no one was optimistic about the development of the east coast of the harbor, even though the policy to develop Haidong had been adopted at the beginning of the year.
come out.
Lin Shuting was looking at Yao Yuan. At first she looked secretly, and found that Yao Yuan was looking at the other side intently and thoughtfully, so she boldly started to observe.
His thick eyebrows sometimes wrinkled and sometimes relaxed, his eyes were piercing and his mouth was tightly pursed. If it weren't for his slightly childish face, no one would believe that this was just an eighteen-year-old college student.
Lin Shuting found that Yao Yuan was very charming at this time, and his simple and old-looking clothes could not hide his aura at all.
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Shuting asked.
Yao Yuan came to his senses, turned to look at Lin Shuting and smiled, "I'm wondering if I should buy some land in Haidong."
Lin Shuting was stunned for a moment, then shook her head slightly and smiled, "It's not funny at all."
Yao Yuan shrugged his shoulders indifferently and stared at Lin Shuting's face. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
"Why are you looking at me like that? It's rude." Lin Shuting's heart beat faster, she avoided Yao Yuan's gaze and said angrily.
Yao Yuan said, "You are so beautiful."
"Please don't talk like that, you sound like a gangster." Lin Shuting's face suddenly turned red.
Yao Yuan said, "I would be a gangster if I complimented you on how good-looking you are."
"You're not allowed to talk like that anyway, I'm your teacher." Lin Shuting couldn't figure out what was wrong with herself. She always felt at a loss in front of Yao Yuan, but there was a faint desire deep in her heart.
Yao Yuan said, "Okay, okay, you don't look good."
"you……"
"Hahaha!"
Yao Yuan pushed his bicycle and Lin Shuting walked slowly along the corridor, looking very much like young people in love in this era.
In Yao Yuan's memory, Lin Shuting's married life in her previous life was not happy. She first married a son of an official family, and then got divorced and lived alone with her children. Until the 20th anniversary gathering of Yao Yuan's classmates, she also
Did not remarry.
Yao Yuan sometimes wonders why such a good woman cannot be happy. Does God have to take away other things after giving her natural beauty?
When they were still some way away from school, Lin Shuting insisted on leaving alone. Yao Yuan agreed with a smile. He knew that Lin Shuting had feelings for him, otherwise he wouldn't care about it.
When he walked into the school gate, Yao Yuan suddenly saw his father standing next to the security room, with Wang Jianguo and his Santana car next to him.
"Dad?" Yao Yuan hurried over.
"I'm back." Yao Zhenhua breathed a sigh of relief and said.
Wang Jianguo was sweating profusely and said quickly, "Xiaoyuan, you are finally back. We have been waiting for you for a long time."
Yao Yuan hurriedly asked, "Wang Chang, what is going on? What happened?"
"Let's talk about getting in the car. Lao Yao, you sit in the passenger seat and I'll talk to Xiao Yuan." Wang Jianguo quickly greeted everyone to get in the car.
Chen Jiahao came out on a motorcycle with Zhang Xiaoqi, and happened to see Yao Yuan getting on the car, and he was immediately confused.
"Is that Yao Yuan?" Zhang Xiaoqi asked, suspecting that she had seen it wrong.
Chen Jiahao's mouth twitched and said, "It seems so. It may be the car of one of his relatives. It's just a Santana, and it only costs about 200,000 yuan."
"Two hundred thousand?" Zhang Xiaoqi was surprised.
For most people, this is an astronomical figure and a sum of money beyond their comprehension.
Chen Jiahao was very unhappy with Zhang Xiaoqi's reaction and snorted, "It's not his car."
Looking at the whole school, Chen Jiahao is the only student who has a motorcycle. He is the only one who poops like a poisonous scorpion. Thinking of this, and thinking that Yao Yuan still has to pick up clothes from the trash, his mood suddenly improves.
In the car, Wang Jianguo said, "The factory has decided to open up all the production lines, but no one knows how to repair those imported equipment, so I don't want to miss you. Don't worry, I made an agreement with your father, and I will give you five hundred yuan for repairing one."
The bonus will never let you suffer."
Yao Yuan hesitated.
The sugar factory was already in the stage of returning to glory, and this harvesting season was the last one. He originally wanted to tell Wang Jianguo that even if all the imported equipment was repaired and all the production lines were opened, it would not be able to save the terminally ill sugar factory.
But seeing Wang Jianguo's expectant eyes and the pride and hope in his father's eyes, Yao Yuan did not say anything in the end. He didn't even ask about what happened in the sugar factory recently.
"I am a child of a sugar factory, so I should contribute." Yao Yuan nodded and agreed.
Wang Jianguo patted Yao Yuan's shoulder excitedly, but said to Yao Zhenhua, "Old Yao, you have raised a good son!"
Yao Zhenhua is full of pride.
As soon as he returned to the sugar factory, Yao Yuan noticed something was different. No matter who they looked at, everyone looked at them with suspicion. If they said a few words, they would definitely turn the blame on the leader. This was a group led by Tang Renhua.
The consequences caused by corrupt elements.
People's hearts are scattered.
Yao Yuan once thought about saving the sugar factory, just for the spiritual sustenance of his parents, but after analyzing all the situations, he reluctantly found that with his current ability, it was absolutely impossible.
The fate of the sugar factory has been determined.
There are many imported equipments that fail, and most of them are not serious problems. The equipment is good, but the technical level of the workers cannot keep up, and frequent improper use results in frequent problems.
During the rest of the weekend, Yao Yuan immersed himself in the workshop, leading Chen Technician and his team to repair all the faulty equipment.
After the last piece of equipment was repaired, Wang Jianguo held Yao Yuan's hand and said with emotion, "Without you, the factory would be in trouble this harvesting season. I didn't mention the thirty-seven pieces of equipment. I'll give you a round number and give you 20,000 yuan."
bonus!"
This little money was no longer enough to impress Yao Yuan. He was about to agree when he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Wang Chang, I saw a lot of fifty kilograms of white sugar piled up in the warehouse. What's going on?
"
Wang Jianguo's mood suddenly dropped, and he sighed and said, "It was the backlog from last year. It was supposed to be exported, and we were just about to sign a contract with foreign businessmen. But suddenly a foreign trade company appeared with a price much cheaper than ours.
The contract was snatched."
"Import Brazilian white sugar and then export it to Europe?" Yao Yuan raised his eyebrows and said.
Wang Jianguo said in surprise, "How do you know?"
Yao Yuan said perfunctorily, "I've read the report. Why hasn't this batch of white sugar been sold domestically?"
"The current price of sugar is only 1,810 tons, which is not even enough, and the market is already saturated. To be honest, if there were no indicators, we would lose as much as we produce this season. Besides, that batch of white sugar is for foreign businessmen.
Customized ones are hard to sell," Wang Jianguo said.
Yao Yuan pondered.
More than a month later, the price of sugar rose sharply, but the sugar factory could not make much money from this batch of white sugar, because in addition to being exported, most of the white sugar from the sugar factory was supplied to state-owned enterprises such as supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores.
For public institutions, prices are fixed.
What he considered was that the bankruptcy of the sugar factory was a certainty. Instead of wasting this batch of white sugar in stock, he might as well use it himself to maximize benefits.
But if he does this, Yao Yuan will be infamous.
Yao Yuan didn't care about this, he was just talking about business, and besides, he didn't have as deep feelings for the sugar factory as people like Wang Jianguo. If it weren't for the comfort of his parents, he wouldn't waste his time on the sugar factory now.
"Wang Chang, please transfer this batch of white sugar in stock to me. I can sell it." Yao Yuan said with a smile.
Wang Jianguo was stunned, "You?"
Yao Yuandao said, "The shelf life seems to be two years. If they are not disposed of, they will all be broken. Rather than letting them break, why not let me give them a try. I will settle the settlement with the factory at two thousand yuan per ton."
"Do you know how many there are?" Wang Jianguo suddenly asked with a smile. Yao Yuan's mechanical maintenance skills were not to be underestimated, but he didn't believe it when it came to disposing of such a large amount of white sugar in stock.
Yao Yuan said, "It should be tens of thousands of tons, right?"
"Ten thousand tons!" Wang Jianguo said word by word, but he found that Yao Yuan's expression did not change much.
"Then the value of the goods is 20 million." Yao Yuan nodded slightly and frowned in thought.
Wang Jianguo felt as if he was in a dream. When Yao Yuan said 20 million, why did it seem so easy to say 2,000?
The backlog of 10,000 tons of white sugar was not one of the factors that led to the bankruptcy of the sugar factory.
Yao Yuan said, "Wang Factory, do you think this will work? My 20,000 yuan bonus will be used as a deposit. You give me 100 tons, and I will sell it and settle with the factory."
He knew that it was wishful thinking to swallow 10,000 tons of white sugar in one gulp, so he had to settle for the next best thing and eat bit by bit.
Wang Jianguo looked at Yao Yuan suspiciously, "Are you kidding?"
"Do I dare to joke about my life and property? Wang Factory, it's just piled up in the warehouse anyway. Why don't you let me give it a try and clear the inventory? Funds in the factory must be very tight now. I heard that they have started to issue IOUs for sugarcane farmers again.
." Yao Yuan said with a smile.
Wang Jianguo thought about it, and what Yao Yuan said was true. The factory had long been out of money. If it weren't for the purpose of opening up all the production lines, he would not have spent 20,000 yuan to hire Yao Yuan.
But, that is one hundred tons of white sugar after all!
Yao Yuan added, "Send me a car and a driver. If you're worried, ask the people from the security department to follow. If you can't sell it, just bring it back. Besides, don't you still have a deposit of 20,000 yuan?"
Wang Jianguo asked, "How do you plan to sell it?"
"I have my own ways." Yao Yuan said with a smile, "But I can tell you, I plan to sell them in the provincial capital."
Wang Jianguo looked deeply at Yao Yuan, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I believe you."
"I'll load up the car next Saturday morning and ask the people from the security department to follow the car with guns. I'll set off when I get back," Yao Yuan said.
Wang Jianguo waved his hand and said, "Don't go to such trouble, use the train to transport it. But the ugly word is up front. Regardless of whether it can be done or not, the freight will be deducted from the deposit."
"I forgot that the factory can contact the company." Yao Yuan patted his head, "No problem, I will be responsible for the freight and travel expenses of the personnel."
For the sugar factory, this is a business that will not lose money.
