Chapter 1335 Auction, Textile Factory, Congratulations
It’s not cold when it snows, it’s cold when it melts.
It has been cloudy for several days in a row. Today the sun came out, but the temperature dropped.
At eleven o'clock, when Xu Banxia went out, he couldn't help shivering in the corridor.
Su Mingzhe held her in his arms and advised:
"Go back and change into a thick cotton jacket. Your jacket is too thin. Don't catch a cold!"
"Forget it, we're running out of time. People in Moscow wear the same clothes, so it's warmer here than in Moscow!"
In order to attend the banquet, Xu Banxia not only put on light makeup and tied her hair into a beautiful bun, but also wore a purple long dress inlaid with broken diamonds that Su Mingzhe brought back from Moscow. She wore a string of snow-white pearl necklace on her slender neck, blue gemstone earrings on her pink earlobes, and a Patek Philippe ladies' watch on her snow-white slender wrist.
Underneath this bright and beautiful appearance is a thin layer of cashmere thermal underwear.
In the cold and damp Binhai City, it's hard not to feel cold wearing such clothes.
The two took the elevator downstairs and saw that the driver Liu Weidong had already parked the Cadillac at the door of the unit.
After getting in the car, Xu Banxia realized that the heating in the car was particularly strong, and his tense body slowly relaxed.
"Let's go, Lao Liu, Xinglong Restaurant!"
As Su Mingzhe spoke, he took off his coat and covered his wife's legs.
If you get cold in other parts of your body, you can still recover from it, but if your legs get cold, it will be a real pain when you get older.
Fortunately, Liu Weidong arrived at around nine o'clock, started the car and turned on the heater.
If I wait until the two of them come downstairs before starting the car and turning on the heater, I'm afraid the car may not even be warm when it arrives at the restaurant.
Xinglong Restaurant is owned by the Tian family. It is located near Binhai Central Park and has a very prosperous geographical location. Even though today is the third day of the Chinese New Year, there are still a lot of cars coming and going and it is extremely lively.
"Banxia, Brother Su, this way!"
As soon as Su Mingzhe got off the car, he heard Tian Ling's voice.
When Su Mingzhe and Xu Banxia walked over, they saw Tian Ling standing alone at the door of the restaurant. They couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Sister Ling, why are you alone here? Where is Brother Feng?"
"He's going to pick up a guest."
Seeing the two people's surprised expressions, Tian Ling hurriedly pulled Su Mingzhe and Xu Banxia to the restaurant box.
After entering the box, everyone started chatting.
Not long after, Feng Yu finally arrived.
Everyone sat down again and Tian Ling asked the waiter to serve the food.
After three rounds of drinks, Tian Ling finally explained the purpose of today's dinner.
In recent years, state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises have been continuously restructured. Relying on the solid foundation of their ancestors, the Tian family wanted to expand in many areas. Taking advantage of the good situation, they invested in many industries.
The Tian family's original idea was not to put all their eggs in one basket, lest if that basket was broken, everything would be lost.
However, as industries flourish in many areas, the Tian family’s management cannot keep up, resulting in disorganized operations and declining profits.
A few years ago, Wu Jianshe, Feng Yu and others went to Hainan Island. They all took a fancy to the real estate market in Hainan Island and planned to invest in its development.
Real estate development requires a considerable amount of start-up capital. After discussion, the Tian family decided to deal with a number of poorly managed industries.
We invited Xu Banxia and Su Mingzhe here today. Firstly, we want to recommend our own industries. If the two of them like any industry, we can directly make a deal. Secondly, the Tian family will hold a small auction in a few days, and we invited the two of them to gather some popularity and help to maintain order and provide a safety net.
After explaining the matter clearly, Tian Ling raised her glass and toasted to Su Mingzhe and Xu Banxia:
"Brother Su, this is your territory in Binhai. I hope you and Banxia can help our family with this big favor. Feng Yu and I will be grateful!"
"Sister Ling, we are all friends, this is just a small matter."
When Su Mingzhe heard Tian Ling's request, he didn't take it seriously and agreed immediately.
Afterwards, Tian Ling talked about the industry she was going to deal with this time.
A total of three cities’ industries need to be dealt with.
In Binhai City, there are two restaurants, a shopping mall, a textile factory, and a seafood factory.
Except for two restaurants, the other three are profitable.
After hearing this, Xu Banxia was suddenly moved and couldn't help but pull the man:
"Hubby, didn't Yuzhou say before that he wanted to start his own factory? Yuzhou and I have been looking around recently, but we haven't found a suitable one. Now Sister Ling's business is for sale, why don't we go and take a look? If it's possible, we can buy it. What do you think?"
"You can figure it out."
Su Mingzhe doesn't care about it.
Tian Ling had just said that the total reserve price of the five industries was about 15 million. For Su Mingzhe, this was just a small amount of money.
After the Lantern Festival, I will go to Harbin to sell those banned goods. The balance in the foreign trade company's account will be about 80 million yuan of spare money.
Instead of keeping so much money in the bank and earning interest, it is better to take it out and invest it.
After a banquet.
Xu Banxia made an appointment with Tian Ling to visit several industries the next day.
In the following days, Su Mingzhe, Xu Banxia and Chen Yuzhou all went to check out the Tian family's assets.
These industries do have a good foundation.
However, the management of restaurants and factories is particularly chaotic. First of all, nepotism is particularly serious. Moreover, there are local tyrants and factory bullies in every factory.
In general, if Xu Banxia bought these industries and did not carry out a radical overhaul, these industries would be doomed sooner or later.
Therefore, Su Mingzhe discussed with Xu Banxia and Chen Yuzhou whether to purchase these industries.
According to Su Mingzhe, after buying it, you have to modify it yourself. If it is so troublesome, you might as well build a new one yourself.
Xu Banxia and Chen Yuzhou didn't care. After all, the price was cheap, and the factory, manpower and so on were all ready. Even if there were some problems, the two of them were not afraid of not being able to solve them.
In a blink of an eye, it was the tenth day.
The Tian family held an industrial auction at an international hotel in Lucheng.
The auction list included a total of 18 properties of the Tian family in three cities.
When Su Mingzhe, Xu Banxia and Chen Yuzhou rushed to the auction house, they met many acquaintances from Binhai City.
Coincidentally, someone here recognized Su Mingzhe, Xu Banxia and Chen Yuzhou.
As people from Binhai City, although they knew that they were competitors, they still greeted each other politely.
At half past ten, the auction officially began.
The first properties to be auctioned were seven in total.
Those who started bidding included merchants from Wuzhou and also merchants from Lucheng.
About half an hour later, the seven properties were successfully auctioned.
Su Mingzhe keenly noticed from the expressions of Tian Ling and Feng Yu that the two were quite satisfied with the auction price.
Then the auction of five properties in Binhai City began.
At the first two restaurants, Su Mingzhe called out a price that was slightly higher than the reserve price.
The other few people kept bidding, and in the end, both restaurants were sold at a price 30% higher than the reserve price.
This was followed by the auction of shopping malls, textile factories, and seafood factories.
The transaction price of the mall was 50% higher than Tian Ling’s reserve price.
The textile factory was 20% higher and was taken over by Xu Banxia.
The seafood food factory was bought by another businessman from Binhai City at a price 20% higher.
Su Mingzhe, Xu Banxia and Chen Yuzhou no longer paid attention to the subsequent industrial auction in another city.
The three of them found the host of the auction, signed the formal textile factory transaction agreement, and then paid the auction price - 3.66 million.
After completing all the formalities, Su Mingzhe took Xu Banxia's hand and came to Tian Ling to congratulate her.
After this auction, the Tian family will be able to recover at least 400 to 500 million.
From this, it can be inferred that the Tian family’s assets are worth at least 100 million.
This scale is much larger than that of Su Mingzhe and the other two.
With this money, the Tian family can go to Hainan Island to invest in real estate.
Think about it, with the real estate bubble market in Hainan Island in the next few years, if the Tian family can withdraw in time, their net worth will be at least 10 billion.
Facing the thanks from Su Mingzhe and his wife, Tian Ling did not show much joy. Instead, she said to Su Mingzhe meaningfully:
"Brother Su, the textile factory is pretty good. Your brother Feng and I don't have that much energy. If you work hard, you will definitely be better than us..."
