Chapter 612: Settling Deng Jiaoming

The stock market is a very magical place. Heavenly Opening Pharmaceutical has no cooperation with Common People Meat Industry Co., Ltd, nor does it hold shares of Common People Meat Industry Co., Ltd. Only because Chairman Chen Yang has retaken control of the meat company can shareholders push ST Heavenly Opening's stock price to the daily limit.

Moreover, such things have happened more than once. Whenever any company under Chen Yang's name has a major event, it can affect ST Heavenly Opening's stock price. It's as if these companies were all investments of Heavenly Opening Pharmaceutical.

Of course, the ability to cause stock fluctuations shows that Common People Meat Industry Co., Ltd is still favored by the market.

Although Chen Yang does not plan to manage the meat company's specific affairs, to help Lu Guojie quickly adapt to the environment, he still took him around the company. After touring the company, he then had Xue Jiachen take him to the pig farm in Shuangfeng Town to familiarize himself with the situation.

According to the agreement between Chen Yang, Huo Yunyan, and Lin Jianguo, the company will give Lu Guojie one year to reorganize. After one year, if performance returns to stability, they will apply for listing.

At the same time, to ensure financial stability, the Common People Agricultural Products Trading Co., Ltd will also plan to increase its order volume to the meat company.

After arranging the affairs of Common People Meat Industry Co., Ltd, Chen Yang then went to find Deng Jiaoming.

"Director Chen, compared to Xingcheng, Qingshui City is far too backward. The land the city government allocated for our company is so remote—nothing but mountains and wasteland!" Deng Jiaoming, having finally waited for Chen Yang's return, immediately started complaining. He never imagined that the hometown of the richest person would be so backward.

Chen Yang well understood Deng Jiaoming's feelings. Even if he weren't from Hong Kong, even people from Xingcheng coming to Qingshui City would look down on it. "Mr. Deng, although this location is remote, the area is large and the land use fee is cheap. To obtain such a large plot in the city for a factory, the land use rights alone would cost over a hundred million. If you could choose, where would you pick?"

Deng Jiaoming fell silent. From a businessman's perspective, he would certainly choose the land with the lower budget.

Chen Yang said gently to Deng Jiaoming: "This place is actually part of the planning for Qingshui City's New City District. Don't look at the current harsh conditions; in just a few years, high-rise buildings will rise all around."

"When you came over, you should have noticed, right? The road the government is building is planned according to eight lanes. This is preparation made in advance for the future expansion of the New City District."

Deng Jiaoming actually also saw the efforts made by the Qingshui City Government to support the construction of Common People Shoe Industry Co., Ltd. Besides the road being expanded, they specially added a dedicated bus line from the urban area to the shoe company.

But the backwardness here still exceeded his imagination.

However, having come, he should settle down. Deng Jiaoming is very clear about his purpose in coming to Qingshui City. He also looks forward to what achievements he can make on such a piece of land.

"Director Chen, rest assured. Since I've come, I will definitely make the company work well for you."

"However, I'm unfamiliar with the place. Besides sales, hiring people will probably also require your effort."

Chen Yang said with a smile: "I will have Deputy General Manager Zhang handle the hiring. Although Qingshui City is not large, recruiting ten thousand workers is still quite easy."

Upon hearing that Chen Yang wanted to hire ten thousand workers, Deng Jiaoming exclaimed in surprise: "Director Chen, we are a newly established company. If we hire so many workers at once and the shoe sales are poor, the workers' wages will be a bottomless pit!"

Chen Yang thought about it and agreed. Ten thousand employees, with a wage budget of one thousand yuan per person, would be one thousand yuan per month, one hundred and twenty million yuan per year.

However, his current wealth could withstand the factory losing money for ten consecutive years.

Most importantly, his purpose in building the shoe factory is to reduce employment pressure in Qingshui City, allowing Lin Jianguo to steadily rise a bit further.

As long as Lin Jianguo can rise, his obligation to Lin Wei is considered fulfilled.

"Mr. Deng, the company can first hire five thousand people. However, the overall planning blueprint must be budgeted for more than ten thousand."

"Sure, leave it to me!" Seeing Chen Yang's ambitious spirit, Deng Jiaoming was also willing to take a chance. The 120-mu Shoe Industry Co., Ltd, once it gains fame domestically, will also benefit him.

Chen Yang's biggest worry was that Deng Jiaoming would back out. Since the other party is willing to stay, he doesn't want to wrong them.

Besides arranging a long-term luxury suite at the Qingshui City Grand Hotel, he also went to a 4S store to pick up a brand-new Mercedes-Benz for his transportation.

After settling Deng Jiaoming, Chen Yang also summoned Liu Shijie back from Lianzhou City to personally supervise the construction progress of Common People Shoe Industry Co., Ltd.

"Chen Yang, your wealth is more than enough to last several lifetimes. It would be wonderful to stay in Hong Kong and accompany Qingqing and the children; why bother toiling here?" Liu Shijie currently has a handful of projects, often shuttling between several cities in Dongjiang Province, exhausted enough to be spiteful. But Chen Yang is his biggest backer; no matter how busy or tired, he must come in person.

"This can't be blamed on me." Chen Yang said with a smile to Liu Shijie: "Your sister chased me back because I refused to marry her."

Liu Shijie sighed upon hearing this: "This can't be blamed on Qingqing either. Who let you, kid, make money so fast, making our family members jealous?"

"Moreover, Qingqing has been hiding her name in Hong Kong for a long time for your sake. To cover up your affairs, our Liu family has also spent a lot on public relations. By rights, you should show some appreciation and give the Liu family a few projects."

Chen Yang gave Liu Shijie a glance and said: "Have I given you few projects over these years? Aren't you a member of the Liu family?"

Liu Shijie laughed: "I'm just Qingqing's cousin. You should compensate Qingqing's father, your future father-in-law, that's right!"

Having been warned by Old Man Zhang, Chen Yang had never dared to face Qingqing's father. At this moment, he couldn't help but ask Liu Shijie: "How does Qingqing's father view me?"

Liu Shijie shook his head: "You should ask Qingqing about that. I myself dare not touch that bad luck."

Hearing his tone, Chen Yang knew that Qingqing's father's impression of him was not good. The marriage matter is likely still the decision of Old Master Liu.

Liu Shijie curiously asked: "Chen Yang, among those three, which one will you ultimately choose?"

Chen Yang said unhappily: "I'm not considering marriage right now. You should just take care of yourself!"

Liu Shijie looked scornful: "I can see it, you brat are preparing to have three feet in three boats!"

Chen Yang ignored him. After his divorce, the women Liu Shijie has changed to could form a reinforced company.

If he were a scumbag, Liu Shijie would only be considered trash.

Men become bad when they have money; this saying is indeed correct.
