Tonghe Dyeing House

In a bright bedroom, a woman with kind eyebrows was arranging the clothes of a man with a straight back and thick eyebrows. The woman also warned:

"Master Lin is from the capital and comes from a wealthy family."

"When you meet Young Master Lin, be careful what you say, lest Young Master Lin doesn't listen to you..."

"Brother Miao even sent a special letter regarding Master Lin."

"Even if you don't want to partner with others, you still have to speak tactfully. After all, there is Brother Miao's face in it..."

"Moreover, Master Lin is also very generous. He has given away so many things, including the square inkstone. Our father likes it very much. He said it is worth at least 10 acres of land."

The man smiled and said, "Haha, that's no trick. That's how I talk. I say whatever comes to my mind."

"If you think I'm not nice to talk to, maybe I'll just take off my shoes and rub my feet!"

"Okay you!"

The woman patted the man gently.

The man smiled and said: "Don't worry, I've got it in mind."

"Actually, if this young master Lin doesn't come, I also have the idea of ​​setting up a factory. If this young master Lin is a reliable person, then I will simply partner with him."

"If we can't reach an agreement, then I will discuss it with other people. There are many rich people nowadays. With our skills, no matter who we find as partners, we can set up a factory!"

The man is Chen Shouting, the shopkeeper of Tonghe Dyeing House, and the woman beside him is his childhood sweetheart, his wife Zhou Caiqin, whom he grew up with since childhood.

While the two were talking, a square-faced man walked in and said, "Brother Six, it's almost time. Our father has asked you to leave."

This man's name is Zhuzi. Like Chen Shouting, he is also an orphan who was taken in by Mr. Zhou. Now he has grown up. Although his dyeing skills are not as good as Chen Shouting's, he is also a rare good craft in Zhoucun.

"Okay, let's go!"

Immediately, the two of them came to the yard to meet Mr. Zhou, the shopkeeper. The three of them left the yard and got on the carriage, heading towards the best restaurant in Zhoucun - Huixian Tower.

When we arrived at Huixian Building, the store clerk had the foresight to come up to greet us: "Old shopkeeper Zhou, shopkeeper Chen, Boss Zhou, please come upstairs. Master Lin is waiting for the three of you upstairs!"

"Oh, do you know us?" Chen Shouting asked with great interest when he saw that this young boy looked unfamiliar.

The young boy Hehe Yile said: "Of course, everyone in Zhoucun City doesn't know you three!"

"You can talk and lead the way!" Chen Shouting said with a smile.

"Okay, please come in!"

The little boy's legs were quick and he led the three of them upstairs and into the private room.

At this time, Lin Hongfei, Wang Zixi, Lu Xiwa and others were already waiting here. Wayne was not there. Lin Hongfei asked him to deal with the procurement of dyes, gray fabrics and other raw materials for the printing and dyeing factory.

When the two parties met, they naturally greeted each other warmly and at the same time looked at each other with their eyes.

"Sure enough, to be able to work his way from a little beggar on the street to become the shopkeeper of the largest dye house in Zhoucun, Chen Shouting is really not an ordinary person!" Lin Hongfei thought to himself, which further strengthened his idea of ​​setting up a factory in partnership with Chen Shouting.

Chen Shouting was also looking at Lin Hongfei, saying that this young master Lin came from a wealthy family, but Chen Shouting could not feel the arrogance of a child of aristocratic families in him.

On the contrary, this young master Lin feels very casual and kind.

The two parties sat down, and there was a meaningless chat at first. It was nothing more than you praising me for being young and promising, and paying attention to etiquette, while I praised you for your superb skills, intelligence and ability.

The store clerk also took advantage of this time to serve Xianlou's fine wines and delicacies to the table one by one.

Everyone was chatting, drinking and eating, and did not directly get down to business. It was not until after three rounds of drinking and the atmosphere became more harmonious that the conversation turned to the matter of setting up a joint venture.

Chen Shouting simply asked directly: "Master Lin, since we are a partnership to open a dyeing factory, I would like to know whether your factory has been built, where it is located, and whether the supply of raw materials is sufficient."

"Also, and most importantly, after the factory is built, how will the annual profits be divided?"

He has a straightforward temper, Lin Hongfei thought to himself, but this suits him very well.

Lin Hongfei smiled and answered one by one: "The factory has been built in Qingcheng. As for raw materials, I have already contacted foreign companies to find raw material suppliers. The supply will not be a problem."

"As for the last two things, I'll just tell you the truth!"

"If Shopkeeper Chen agrees to partner with me, this factory will be fully managed by Shopkeeper Chen from now on. As the owner, I will not interfere in any of your decisions."

"But the dirty talk is ahead. If I find that shopkeeper Chen is doing something shady in private, I have the right to take back your management and management rights at any time."

Chen Shouting nodded. Although the words did not sound good, they made sense.

However, it was somewhat beyond Chen Shouting's expectation that Lin Hongfei could so simply agree to hand over the full power of the factory to him. He couldn't help but pay more attention to Lin Hongfei's eyes.

"As for profit sharing..."

Lin Hongfei paused:

"Between you and me, it will be divided into 60 and 40!"

"If the business goes well in the future, we can still discuss the matter of sharing!"

As soon as this statement came out, Chen Shouting did not reply in time, but remained silent. After thinking for a moment, he said: "The sixty-four split is reasonable. After all, Master Lin is responsible for running this factory and everything else."

"Okay, I agree to this!"

"However, I have one more condition. I hope to go to Master Lin's factory."

"Although Brother Miao was responsible for this matter, President Xu of the Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce helped to bridge the gap."

"But hearing is deceptive and seeing is believing. I have to go see it myself!"

Hearing this, Lin Hongfei nodded: "No problem, we can leave tomorrow."

"After all, you, shopkeeper Chen, will be in charge of this dyeing factory in the future. It's appropriate to familiarize yourself with it in advance!"

The two parties reached a preliminary verbal agreement on this, and the atmosphere of the banquet naturally became more lively. Both parties also lowered some of their guard and revealed some true feelings to each other.

On the next day, both parties got up early and rushed to Zhoucun Railway Station and took the first train to Qingcheng.

When he came to the factory purchased by Lin Hongfei, Chen Shouting observed very carefully, not neglecting almost every corner. He seemed to be a rough and unruly man, but he was as meticulous as a hair when it came to business.

Lin Hongfei nodded slightly, it seemed that he had indeed found the wrong person!

After inspecting the printing and dyeing factory, and with some coordination from Xu Chengping, Chen Shouting finally made up his mind to set up a factory in partnership with Lin Hongfei.
Chapter completed!
