Li Yalin didn’t rush to talk to him about the price, but asked him many detailed questions, and let him take himself around for a visit, behind this factory, there was also a staff canteen as well as a few warehouses, even though the size of the factory’s workers was only more than three hundred, but if he really wanted to hide people here, it would still be very easy to hide a few thousand of them.
In addition to this, there were about fifteen tonnes of canned goods waiting to be shipped in the finished product warehouse, which was about forty thousand US dollars according to the market price.
After looking at it as a whole, Li Yalin said to the boss, “Let’s put it this way, I’ve seen what you have here, and to be honest, it’s really older than I imagined, and the cost of refurbishing and rebuilding and upgrading will cost at least a few million US dollars, and I’m a person who doesn’t like to dilly-dally when doing business, so I’m going to give you two quotes, and two choices, and no matter which one as long as you can accept it, we’ll be able toreach a co-operation, if neither is acceptable, then I’ll look at other options.”
That boss hurriedly said, “Please go ahead.”
Li Yalin said, “The first offer, a one-time payment of two hundred and fifty thousand US dollars to buy out all the visible and tangible facilities here, including the land, factory buildings, production lines, and other equipment, oh yeah, and all the raw materials and finished product inventory in your warehouse;”
When that boss heard this, his expression was instantly somewhat helpless as he said, “I won’t hide it from you, our raw materials and finished product inventory alone is worth at least $50,000 USD.”
Li Yalin smiled and said, “The second offer, I’ll pay you $300,000, but I can only pay you $200,000 upfront, the remaining $100,000 will have to wait for me to put it into production before I pay you, the other condition is that you have to help me maintain these workers, I may need two to three months to upgrade the equipment here, during this time, you have to make sure that these workers don’t defend their rights, don’t cause any trouble, don’t cause any trouble to mefind any trouble, and at the same time, they must also wait honestly at home, and come back to work when I start work.”
The boss said awkwardly, “I really can’t guarantee this, they all have to support their families, if they don’t have an income during these two to three months, their families might not be able to eat, in that case, they will definitely go and look for other jobs.”
Li Yalin said, “During this period of time, their wages will be paid as usual, half per month, and the remaining half will be paid in one lump sum until the day of the post.”
When the boss heard this, he was relieved and hurriedly said, “Then this is no problem, there is still money to be received if they don’t work, they will definitely agree.”
Li Yalin reminded, “In order to make sure that they don’t reveal my situation here to the public or my business secrets, you have to step in and do these things, make them think that it’s you who is going to upgrade this place, not someone else, and then tell them not to tell anyone about this place when they get back home, and once they reveal their business secrets, they will stop being paid, and the rest of half of their salaryis also nullified outright.”
The boss said without even thinking, “All of this is no problem, my prestige can still do it.”
Speaking here, he rubbed his hands together and smiled sarcastically, “It’s just that this price is indeed still a bit low for me, it’s only three hundred thousand in total, and there’s still fifty thousand dollars worth of goods in here. It should at least be above $450,000 to be reasonable ah”
Li Yalin said, “Let’s put it this way, as long as you do what I’ve explained to you, so that I can push the upgrades with all my heart and soul, after the upgrades are completed and the work starts smoothly, I’ll pay you another two hundred thousand dollars, so that the total bid will be four hundred thousand dollars.”
Once the boss heard this, he immediately smiled with joy and said without hesitation, “Deal!”
