Chapter 762: Different Thoughts
Took my cousin and his wife to play in Hangzhou for another day.
During dinner, I saw my wife constantly making eye contact with me. After a reasonable hesitation, I said, "Xuzi. That"
"Are you talking about buying a machine? I must have called someone to help you contact them. It is a semi-automatic machine that is more advanced than the sewing machines currently used in small factories.
This machine is much more efficient than a sewing machine, and it is very convenient to operate. You can learn it easily. One machine is 22,000 yuan. I ordered 10 for you." Yang Dongxu said.
"10 machines? Too many!" He Xin was shocked.
When I thought of 220,000 yuan for 10 machines, not to mention the money for renting a larger factory and only the water and electricity operation, the four people were undoubtedly nervous about such a large investment.
The first thing I thought about was not to let go of such a good machine and do a big job, but to think about what to do if it loses money? How can I pay back so much money?
"I'll advance the money for you, but it's a loan that needs to be repaid. The clothing industry will have good returns in the next few years, and you can make a lot of money if you work hard.
Although the machines are a bit too many, you can get more orders with so many machines and find a few workers to operate them, and you can even get orders from some big factories. If nothing goes wrong, the return on investment will be fast." Yang Dongxu said.
"That's too much, how about that." Wang Qin looked at her husband and then at Yang Dongxu: "How about you just open a factory and be the boss with this money, and we will work for you."
This is obviously a clever statement. In fact, among the four people, the eldest cousin and the daughter-in-law are undoubtedly the smartest one. She didn't ask Yang Dongxu to invest and make money together.
Otherwise, it gives people the feeling that they can't afford such a big investment, so they pull Yang Dongxu in to take the risk. Since it's a cooperation, it must be that if they make money, everyone will share it. If they lose money, then the investment money will naturally be gone and they don't have to pay it back. This is undoubtedly very selfish and treats him as a fool.
But it's different if Yang Dongxu invests and they help work. You are the boss and we are just employees. So you can pay wages. If you make money, it's yours. If you lose money, it's also yours.
"I don't plan to invest in this." Yang Dongxu smiled.
The atmosphere at the dinner table couldn't help but fall silent. Several people were a little hesitant to speak but didn't know what to say.
"Let me put it this way." Yang Dongxu pondered for a moment and said: "The money is considered as a loan from me. There is no limit on the repayment period. If you can make money, then you can pay it back. If you lose money, I don't want it. But after losing money, you can find something to do and don't bother."
"This." It's reasonable that several people couldn't help but fall silent.
Although this is said in a tactful way, the meaning is very clear, that is, this 220,000 is considered as Yang Dongxu's investment in them. If you can make money and pay the money back, then if you encounter any problems in the future, you can borrow money to help.
If you lose money, then he doesn't plan to take the money back. But it's obviously not possible to borrow money in the future. It's not just him, it's probably not possible for Yang's parents. If they have any ideas to do business, they should find a job and work hard to save their own capital.
This is not a temporary decision. He thought so when he talked to Zhou Ya about giving too much to relatives when he was in Yanjing a long time ago. He also meant this when he talked to his own table about clothing business at the beginning of the year.
That is to invest a sum of money, which is currently set at 100,000 yuan per family, and it can fluctuate upward. This money is definitely a drop in the bucket compared to his property, but it is enough for relatives to realize some ideas of doing business on their own, whether it is opening a store or a smaller factory with five or six workers.
If relatives can calm down and do things, and do business in a methodical way, then if they still want to invest in expanding production and seize development opportunities, it is no problem to invest another sum of money.
But if these people feel that he is rich, they want him to subsidize them no matter what, and use his money to experiment with some reliable and unreliable ideas, then I am sorry that 100,000 yuan is the bottom line. I don’t want it if it is a loss, and you don’t want to borrow money from me in the future.
"If you do it, go back and find a bigger place to build a factory, and then keep your current staff and recruit some more people. Didn't I call you at the beginning of the year? Contact us and we can add some orders. If you don't do it, I'll call and return the machine." Yang Dongxu continued.
In fact, he was a little arbitrary in ordering such an expensive semi-automatic machine this time, but it was also a driving force. Because if I follow the old way of my second cousin and help him buy 20 sewing machines, I will only add 20 workers.
Although the productivity has increased several times compared to before, after making money, in addition to paying him back, the remaining money will be used to sell sewing machines to expand the scale of the site and so on.
But the productivity of society is constantly developing. As a rural person, Yang Dongxu knows the habits of rural people too well. Everything is stable. Since this can make money, then continue to do so until it loses money and can't be done anymore.
However, ordering semi-automatic machines is different. Although 10 semi-automatic machines are much more expensive than sewing machines, one can do the workload of three machines, and only one person is needed to operate it. Although the cost is a little higher, it can save the wages of two employees.
So he wanted to use this method to let his two cousins see the changes in innovation, and that doing the same thing from a different perspective could make more money.
Of course, this is actually a test to see if the two cousins have the brains to do it well with these 10 machines, and 10 people are also easy to manage.
In order to save costs, the four of them can even be both bosses and employees. It is enough to hire six workers. Gradually increasing from a small number of people to a large number of people can also exercise management skills.
The machines are very advanced, and the orders are also available. The only thing missing now is that they need to bite their teeth and spend some money to rent a larger factory, and the pressure of 220,000 yuan in arrears.
But Yang Dongxu also said that when the money is earned, he will pay it back, and if he loses it, he will not want it. In this way, they have all the right time, place, and people. If they still can't succeed, it proves that they are not good at doing business. They should find a job and live a good life in the future.
And every year, whether it is the New Year's gift or other aspects, Yang's mother will definitely compensate these younger generations, and their living standards will definitely not be worse than those of the same village.
"Xuzi is really something. Why did he order so many machines at once? What if the things lose money?" Wang Qin said worriedly when she returned to the room.
"He said he won't give it up after paying the money, what else do you want?" Heli looked at his wife with some annoyance.
For him who can only earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year, 220,000 yuan is undoubtedly a huge sum of money. Although only 110,000 yuan of it is his own, it is still a considerable sum.
If this money is not borrowed from Yang Dongxu, but is really his own. Then he must be very strong. Although a millionaire is not a big deal now, a deposit of 100,000 yuan is still a face in the countryside, so he is naturally confident.
But this 110,000 yuan is a loan. Although it is not a big interest and there is no repayment period, he still feels stuffy in his chest. And he is still a little unwilling to admit defeat in his heart.
That's right, he is unwilling to admit defeat, not unwilling to accept defeat. Think about it, he is a father and a few years older than Yang Dongxu, but he is worried about the gains and losses of this 110,000 yuan without interest or even repayment. But Yang Dongxu took out 220,000 yuan without blinking, which made him suddenly feel a kind of emotion that he couldn't vent in his heart.
"I didn't say anything." Wang Qin muttered in a low voice after being glared at by her husband.
"Then you can't say such things casually. It's a favor for others to lend money, and it's their duty not to lend money. Besides, Xuzi also said that you don't have to pay it back if you lose money. Look all over the world to find someone who can lend you more than 100,000 yuan and say that you don't have to pay it back if you lose money?" Li Li said.
Wang Qin opened her mouth and didn't know what to say for a while. Her husband was right. Look all over the world to find someone who said that they don't have to pay back if they lose money to lend them more than 100,000 yuan for business. They are not the kind of rogues. They think that Yang Dongxu is rich and it is natural for them to spend money on him as a relative, so this favor must be remembered.
It's not just the eldest cousin and his wife who are struggling. The second cousin and his wife are also struggling after returning to the room.
In fact, the two cousins and their wives are struggling with the pressure of arrears, and the other is what to do if they lose money. Although they shouldn't have such a big pressure if they don't have to pay back the money, they are obviously embarrassed to do so.
After all, people nowadays still want to save face. They can't accept the benefits given by Yang Dongxu, and they feel at ease and justified. They are just cousins, not brothers. Besides, brothers should settle accounts clearly.
"Why don't we let Xuzi order five machines first to try it out? It happens that our small place can barely fit them. We don't need to spend money to find a new factory." Li Juan hesitated and said.
"No, 10 machines are 10 machines. Let's talk to Xuzi tomorrow, and then we will immediately find a place in Jiaxing. There are garment factories giving orders, so why are we worried about no business? If we lose everything, we will work together to pay back the money." He Xin gritted his teeth and made a decision.
In fact, in addition to wanting to fight for it, the reason why he was uneasy in his heart was that if he lost money, he would not get Yang Dongxu's support in the future. After all, the status and wealth shown by his relative in the past two days really surprised him.
Although it seems that this package business is a sure win, what if he encounters a bigger opportunity before he pays back the money? For example, if you invest 500,000 yuan at once, you can easily make 1 million yuan?
By then, if you still haven't paid back the money you owe Yang Dongxu, he will definitely not lend you money again, and then you will definitely regret watching such a good opportunity slip through your fingers.
This is actually the idea of most people. When the pressure of borrowing is reduced to a lower level. People will subconsciously want to use this opportunity to gain more profits, so they are hesitant between taking this opportunity to invest now or waiting to find a better project.
This is actually related to their minds being a little lively, or the ever-changing and rapidly developing society makes everyone more and more impetuous, and they want better things when they have good things.
If it were the older generation, Yang's father and mother, or the aunt and the second aunt. Although they still can't sleep at night because they owe so much money.
But once they decide to do it, they won't think so far, but will seize the opportunity at the moment to take down the money that can make money first. As for whether they will miss a better opportunity, if they miss it, they will blame their bad luck.
And why will good opportunities be waiting for you in front? Why don’t you think about what will happen if you fail to seize this opportunity now and never have this opportunity in the future?
