"Drop a factory!"

Even though Lai Yongjia had a calm personality, he still panned his eyes when he heard what Feng Xiaochen said.

They were sitting in a quiet German restaurant. In addition to the two of them, Yang Haifan and Li Tao were also present. Because they knew that Feng Xiaochen was going to say something secret, Lai Yongjia did not bring other subordinates, but asked them to have dinner by themselves, and only brought their secretary Li Tao to Feng Xiaochen's banquet.

Because he was asking for help and respect Lai Yongjia as a senior, Feng Xiaochen specially ordered a few expensive German dishes, which allowed Lai Yongjia and Li Tao, who had been chewing bread for several days, to have a good tooth sacrifice. The level of coming to Yongjia is not low, and when he was on business trips in China, the reception standards of his brother units were very high. But when he came to Germany, he could only accept the standard of overseas subsidy like other overseas personnel, with only 100 marks of food and pocket money a day.

Because this money is a free contract system, cadres who are used to poverty are reluctant to use it to satisfy their appetites. They can just buy a few breads to deal with it. It is more cost-effective to save money to buy some foreign goods or take them back to subsidize their household expenses. This situation continued until the 1990s, and it was not a big deal for Chinese officials to bring a bag of instant noodles on business trips. As for the new century, Chinese people continued the tradition of bringing instant noodles abroad, but the main purpose was no longer to save money, but because they were not used to eating foreign food, which was a different matter.

When Feng Xiaochen ordered the dishes, Li Tao watched from the side, saliva flowing, and felt very distressed. A smoky herring, 180 mark, was worth his two-month salary. Although he always felt that it was a pity that he could not taste the local delicacies when he came to Germany, he would not be willing to give him so much money to order a dish.

He kept glanced at Yongjia with his eyes, wanting to remind him to stop Feng Xiaochen and not spend such a waste of money. Unexpectedly, he seemed to have not seen it, just smiled and watched Feng Xiaochen pretend to be forked.

When it comes to Yongjia, Feng Xiaochen has always felt a little unsightly. Feng Xiaochen is young and very experienced in dealing with things. In the matter of Xujiawan, his methods of handling things seemed a bit reckless, but in fact they were linked together. They established their authority in one fell swoop, making the demolition households in Xujiawan and some other places frightened and dared not make things difficult for the ethylene project. After that, Feng Xiaochen did not make any sense, but mainly made peace with the Lecheng Government and helped Lecheng compete for the TV project, clearing the grudge between the Lecheng Government and the ethylene project.

After half a year, Lecheng indeed received a reply from the State Economic Commission and was able to take up the TV project. A group of officials in Lecheng celebrated and said in private that the Director Feng, who was reinstalling the office, was really good. After Lai Yongjia learned some inside information, he couldn't help but laugh. The country would soon release local investment autonomy. Feng Xiaochen's move was just a short favor. After laughing, Lai Yongjia's curiosity about Feng Xiaochen became deeper. He was able to foresee the direction of national policies half a year ago and skillfully utilized it. What a magical ability.

This time I met Feng Xiaochen in Germany. I heard that Feng Xiaochen's family business was going to build a construction machinery company in China. When I came to Yongjia, I felt a little emotional. Thanks to the support of the German industry, it is a very strong background for a young cadre in a state organ. It was still the early stage of reform and opening up. Business of cadres and families was not a stain, and it was even considered a manifestation of open-mindedness. At least, you can understand the market better than other colleagues and have a more business awareness. This is the most lacking knowledge in the cadre team nowadays.

Feng Xiaochen's behavior of ordering food for a lot of money is naturally in Lai Yongjia's eyes. In addition to the other party's respect for himself, he also saw Feng Xiaochen's economic strength. This is a young man who takes thousands of marks and does not serve as money. Then the career he is seeking is not the content of ordinary people's hearts.

Sure enough, after saying some gossip, Feng Xiaochen got to the point. As soon as he opened his mouth, he threw Lai Yongjia and Li Tao into the spotlight.

"Buy a German factory with hundreds of various equipment, how can it cost tens of millions of dollars?"

Li Tao guessed dumbly. He looked down at the smoked herring that the waiter had just brought, and no longer had the idea of ​​worrying about the price of this dish being too expensive. Can people who can do business for tens of millions of dollars still not afford a portion of herring?

"Not tens of millions, it's a little less than this number." Feng Xiaochen calmly corrected Li Tao's guess. He did not tell the truth. If he came to Yongjia, he promised to help them dismantle the factory, those equipment could be seen. The price of 1.8 million is really cheap. He didn't want to come to Yongjia to have any ideas.

Lai Yongjia was indeed frightened by Feng Xiaochen. He thought that less than tens of millions would be seven or eight million, or at least five million. No matter which number it was, it was a big deal. The most important thing was that he bought the German factory directly and had to dismantle it all and transport it back to China. No one has ever done such a thing in the past.

"Do you want our workers to help you transport these equipment?"

Lai Yongjia guessed Feng Xiaochen's meaning and asked him.

Feng Xiaochen nodded and said, "Yes. You know, the salary level of German workers is too high, and we can't afford it. In the past few days, Xiao Yang and I have been thinking about how to bring a loading and unloading team from China to Germany to complete these tasks, but it is too troublesome to apply for passports and visas. Since you are going to send someone to Germany to transport equipment, can we do our business together?"

"How much labor do you probably need?" Lai Yongjia asked.

"Twenty skilled workers, about one and a half months," Yang Haifan replied. He has already been to the Hagen factory and has evaluated the difficulty of dismantling those steel structures. According to his calculations, it takes about 30 people a month to work. Of course, this is calculated based on the working hours of 26 days a month, and the working hours per day will be as high as more than 10 hours. If you follow the German work and rest system, you will have two days off a week and work 6 hours a day, then it may really take 40 people to work for 3 months.

When Lai Yongjia heard this calculation, he frowned and said to Feng Xiaochen: "Xiao Feng, logically speaking, this is your business, and it involves introducing equipment for our country. I should help you no matter what. However, it is not easy to explain to my workers for an extra month and a half in Germany. After all, they are employees of the company, and it is a bit contrary to the principle to ask them to do private work for you."

"This is not a private job," Feng Xiaochen said, "I pay to hire your company's porters to help us do things. It's equivalent to your loading and unloading team taking one of our orders. What's wrong with that?"

"You mean you can still pay?" Lai Yongjia asked.

"I sell cakes, when can't I pay for it?" Feng Xiaochen felt very tired, and he thought that I wanted their workers to help for nothing. No wonder he showed such a tangled face.

Lai Yongjia said embarrassedly: "I misunderstood. I thought you wanted us to help you."

"It was just to help." Feng Xiaochen said, "but you have to pay for help, right?"

"If you can pay according to our charging standards, then there is no big problem... By the way, Xiao Feng, if you pay, should you pay RMB or foreign exchange?" Lai Yongjia thought of something temporarily and asked again.

Feng Xiaochen said: "It's okay for RMB or foreign exchange. We originally planned to hire German workers to work, so we also prepared some foreign exchange. If we always think that we're better at paying foreign exchange, then we can do it."

"That's great!" Lai Yongjia said, "If you pay for foreign exchange, then I can report to the company, saying that after our loading and unloading team came to Germany, at the request of the German company, it provided some services and earned foreign exchange for the country. In this way, this matter is not only not a mistake, but can even become a result."

"Then what are your charging standards?" Feng Xiaochen asked.

Li Tao replied on behalf of Yongjia: "Director Feng, we have not undertaken loading and unloading tasks abroad, but I know that Mingzhou Provincial Construction Company has sent loading and unloading teams abroad. The general situation is: the food, accommodation, transportation, medical care, equipment, insurance and taxes of the dispatched personnel, etc. are all responsible for the other party. In addition, according to the technical level of the dispatched personnel, each general worker is $300 per month, skilled technicians are $450, and engineers are $1,000. In addition, if the dispatched personnel are injured due to work abroad, the other party will also have to bear medical expenses and corresponding compensation."

"Each person is 450 US dollars per month, which is not low." Yang Haifan muttered in a low voice. According to the current exchange rate, 450 US dollars is equivalent to 1,000 yuan, which is much higher than the 200 yuan that Yang Haifan originally planned.

"This fee is not high, we can accept it." Feng Xiaochen agreed readily without even hitting a bump. Before Yongjia could say anything, he added with a smile: "But we don't have to bear the transportation fee, right? Because you had to bear the air tickets for these workers. Whether you were helping us or not, weren't they all coming to Germany?"
