Everyone was in confusion. When they forced Shi Qiang together, they never thought that the result would be like this.
They wanted to build a workshop, but they didn't have enough money, and they wanted to sell their house to raise money, but no one was willing. Now Shi Qiang has lost his job, and he was forced to do so by themselves. How do they feel about this?
Especially my father, he was so angry that he kept beating the table with his palms, "What should I do? What should I do? God, are you going to force the old man to death?"
Seeing his father crying and screaming, Shi Qiang remained unmoved, "Dad, when you threatened death, why didn't you think about me? Do you really think building a workshop is that simple? If so.
It’s simple, then why don’t you see others build workshops?”
The father felt extremely regretful. If he had known this, he should not have forced the third child in the first place. If the third child had not caused trouble with the machine shop, the salary of thirty-five guan per month would have been enough for the whole family to have food and drink.
.
Where can we still sit back and rest like now?
"Third brother." Dad grabbed Shi Qiang's hand and said tremblingly, "You have read a lot of books! You are very capable! You must have something, right? You must have something!"
Seeing that Shi Qiang didn't let go of his hand, Dad's eyes were filled with hope.
Shi Qiang lived up to his father's expectations and nodded, "There is indeed another way."
"Say, you say." Dad gently let go of Shi Qiang's hand.
He glanced at everyone and said slowly, "The only way now is to form a partnership with others."
"partnership?"
Everyone's voices suddenly rose, and it was easy to see from their expressions that they were very resistant to this.
Although joint stock can solve the money problem, it also means that in the future the workshop will no longer be exclusive to the historians, and future profits will also be divided among others.
Shi Qiang laughed and said seriously before they could speak, "This is the only way now!"
Several people looked at each other with gloomy expressions and no one spoke.
After a while, the eldest brother smiled flatteringly at Shi Qiang and said, "Third brother, I heard that the Royal Bank will lend money. How about we go to the bank to borrow money?"
Shi Qiang didn't even look at him and said in a calm tone, "You have to pay interest for bank loans, not to mention bank loans require mortgage. With so much money, what can we use as collateral? This house?"
"It's fine if we can repay the money. It's just more interest. But if we can't repay the loan by then, the house will be taken away."
"Instead of doing this, it is better to sell the house directly."
"No! You can't sell the house." Selling the house is now a taboo for Dad. As long as he hears these three words, he will object without hesitation.
After saying that, he scolded the boss, "You have to give money to others before you have earned any money. Shut up, you wasteful thing!"
The boss was so scolded that he shrank his neck, took a step back, and did not dare to speak any more.
Dad turned back to look at Shi Qiang and said in a dry voice, "Sanwazi, if we form a partnership, how many shares will the other party hold?"
Shi Qiang stretched out his right hand and raised it high, with his fingers spread wide.
"Fifty percent?" Dad's eyes widened like bells and he screamed, as did everyone else.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Shi Qiang sighed helplessly, "Dad, I have to spend 700 yuan, which only accounts for 50% of the shares.
It’s just for the sake of my skills. Otherwise, if you don’t have 60 people, you won’t agree to it at all.”
"Too much, too much." Dad shook his head repeatedly. He couldn't say anything else. He just kept saying "too much."
Seeing that his father disagreed, Shi Qiang did not argue with him. He shook his head and said, "Since everyone disagrees, let's stop this matter. Anyway, I have no choice. If you have a better way, why not speak up and listen."
?”
How can others find a solution? But they are very unwilling to let others take 50% of their shares.
The discussion ended without any results. Two days later, Dad called everyone together again.
In just the past two days, except for Shi Qiang, everyone in the family looked haggard and looked exhausted both physically and mentally.
"Everyone is here, so I'll tell you."
After glancing at it and seeing that there was no sound, the father sighed and said, "Let's discuss this time. Do you agree or not with Sanwazi's idea of a joint venture?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Qiang said with a nonchalant expression, "Dad, I have already said that if you have a better way, just pretend that I didn't say anything about the joint venture."
Dad smiled flatteringly and avoided Shi Qiang's eyes with some embarrassment.
If he had a way, there would be no need to call everyone here for discussion today.
The others were obviously at a loss as they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
"Third brother, can you talk to the other party?" Finally, the father had the courage to speak.
"What did you say?" Shi Qiang chuckled.
The father pursed his lips and said sheepishly, "We are bargaining with the other party. They are raising the price on the ground. Don't they allow us to pay back the money on the ground?"
"Yes, pay back the money while sitting on the floor." The boss was more excited than everyone else. He stood up suddenly and spat, "50% is too much. I think 30% is enough. Of course, since it is a bargain, it cannot be all
Just say 30% when you open your mouth.”
Shi Qiang raised his eyes and looked over, smiling and saying, "What percentage do you think we should say?"
"10%!" the boss said firmly, as if he was cutting flesh and bleeding.
"Then, how about you go talk to the other party, brother?" Shi Qiang smiled nonchalantly, "If we can really talk about 30%, brother, you will be the great hero of our family!"
"Ahem!" The boss seemed to be choked by the wind, and quickly covered his mouth and coughed, "Well, I don't know the other party, and I don't have any friendship with them. I'm afraid it won't be possible to talk!"
Why are you so excited if we can't talk about it? I thought you really had something to do.
The father glared at the eldest son complainingly, then turned to look at Shi Qiang, "Sanwazi, since you brought up this matter, it's better for you to talk about it."
Shi Qiang sighed helplessly, "Dad, I have already talked with them. They only agreed to take 50% because of their friendship with me. Otherwise, with the money they paid, even 60% would be reasonable.
of."
Seeing his father hesitate, Shi Qiang finally reminded him, "Whether it works or not, it's up to you to take note of it. If it doesn't work, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Seeing that Shi Qiang looked like he would stop caring about the matter if it didn't work, Dad knew in his heart that there was no room for change in the matter.
Gritting his teeth, "Okay, 50% is 50%. You tell him that we have to sign a contract, and he must get the money immediately."
"Okay, I'll tell the other party about this. It shouldn't be a big problem." Shi Qiang nodded. Everyone was confused. When they forced Shi Qiang together, they never thought that the result would be like this.
