Wu Bei nodded: "My senior brother is even more powerful, he is a martial god."
Zhu Qingyan was surprised and happy at the same time, and said with a smile: "Brother Wu will definitely not lose to them in the future."
In this regard, Wu Bei is confident that his dimensional eye will be of great help to his practice. He believes that before he is thirty years old, he can definitely reach the level of his two senior brothers, or even surpass them.
The two chatted for a while, and Zhu Qingyan said: "Brother Wu, I asked my servants to prepare supper. Eat some."
Wu Bei didn't eat dinner and nodded repeatedly.
After Wu Bei practiced cultivation, his strength greatly increased and his appetite was astonishing. Zhu Qingyan hired two chefs to make delicious food for him. There were four side dishes, a soup, and newly made butter cakes on the table.
Wu Bei was already hungry, so he wolfed down his food in three gulps, destroying all the food like a whirlwind.
Zhu Qingyan looked on with a smile and said: "Brother Wu, I am going back to the provincial capital tomorrow. I have already given instructions to the cook. I have nothing to worry about when you eat from now on."
Wu Bei asked: "Why did you suddenly return to the provincial capital?"
Zhu Qingyan: "My grandfather's two chemical plants have some problems. The products are unsaleable and the capital chain is also very tight. I want to go back and help him solve it."
Wu Bei asked with concern: "Why is the product unsalable? What went wrong?"
Zhu Qingyan sighed softly: "My grandfather's two chemical companies are both in the provincial government, with an annual output value of more than 30 billion. They mainly produce chemical fertilizers, chemical fibers, oil refining and coking. In order to grow the company in these years, my grandfather has borrowed money from the bank every year.
But the general environment this year is not good, sales have declined, and there are too many inventories, which has put pressure on the capital chain."
Wu Bei: "Qingyan, how are you going to solve it?"
Zhu Qingyan smiled bitterly: "I don't know, I can only take it one step at a time. Recently, a provincial chemical group, which is ten times our size, wants to acquire us. If it doesn't work, Grandpa said, we will buy the chemical industry."
Factory for sale.”
Wu Bei frowned: "Your grandfather has been in business for decades before reaching today's scale. It would be a pity to sell it."
Zhu Qingyan looked helpless: "What is the solution? If you don't sell, the capital chain will be broken, and it is inevitable to file for bankruptcy in the end. Compared with bankruptcy, selling is the best choice."
Wu Bei: "How much does the other party offer?"
"One billion." Zhu Qingyan said, "The price is naturally not high, but except for them, no one can eat us.
Wu Bei shook his head: "Both companies make at least hundreds of millions in profits every year, right? You can't sell them for one billion."
Zhu Qingyan: "Indeed. The profits of the two chemical plants last year were more than 850 million."
Wu Bei thought for a while and asked: "Qingyan, can the chemical plant continue to operate as long as the funds are in place?"
Zhu Qingyan nodded: "The market has its ups and downs. As long as you give me another year or so, I believe everything will be on track. But the problem is that the bank will no longer give us loans."
Wu Bei thought for a while and asked: "What is the funding gap?"
Zhu Qingyan: "The gap is huge. The short-term funding gap is 2 billion, and in the long term it will be tens of billions."
After saying that, she shook her head: "Grandpa has been very depressed recently."
Wu Bei said: "Let me help you think of a solution. Since it is a problem of bank loans, let's start with the loans."
Zhu Qingyan was stunned: "Brother Wu, can you do anything?"
Wu Bei nodded: "I still have some connections. I will help you ask someday to find out the reason why the bank stopped lending, and then find a solution."
