Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 649: A Cure for All Illnesses?

As soon as the statement was shouted, the originally noisy hall suddenly quieted down.

This silence was as if someone had pressed the pause button.

The master panicked, breaking into a cold sweat on his back. freёwebnoѵel.com

He wanted to run away.

However, just moments later, the hall became even livelier.

It seemed many people had not expected this turn of events.

So it was a fake after all.

Just as I thought, where in this world is there something that can cure all diseases?

If there was, it wouldn’t be accessible to people like them.

If such a cure-all existed, what would be the need for hospitals or researching medicines?

More importantly, if a cure-all appeared, wouldn’t it mean that humans could live forever?

Not to say living for hundreds of years, but even making it to 100 years old would be a joy.

Is that possible?

It was obvious he was a swindler.

Song Yunuan didn’t get involved afterward, watching the excitement for what it was and leaving it at that.

At least it was an awakening for the people nearby, but if they still refused to see the truth, even gods couldn’t help them.

The project was re-audited, and it quickly got approved.

Old Mr. Ji also had fewer cold remarks.

The doctor and nurse were arranged by Uncle Xiao Dizi, and the others were classmates that Song Mingbo, who had already started working, had found.

Song Mingbo had graduated from graduate school and was assigned to the judicial department; recently, he was planning to quit and open a law firm.

However, Song Liang and Xia Guilan did not quite agree.

Even Old Mrs. Song felt it was too soon to dive in, saying, considering the current family situation, they really didn’t lack money. Besides, the department was an excellent one, it sounded impressive and felt prestigious. It was thanks to Little Nuan’s influence that Song Mingbo could get in.

Why wouldn’t the Song family cherish such an opportunity, granted their capabilities?

Song Mingbo had no choice but to give up on the idea.

Song Yunuan also talked with him once, saying that it was a good idea, but what was needed now was to accumulate experience. Since there was such a great opportunity, he should settle down in this department.

In three to five years, as private enterprises increased and people became more aware of legal rights and learned to defend themselves by legal means, law firms born from necessity would thrive.

With the work experience and connections from here, running a law firm wouldn’t be so hard.

Otherwise, if you just graduated and started your firm, who would trust you? Who would seek you out?

Starting a business is hard, and this is exactly why.

Moreover, having two unemployed college graduates at home was certainly not comforting to Song Liang and Xia Guilan.

Sometimes, they still harbored old-fashioned views.

As their children, not to mention holding a golden rice bowl, even having an iron rice bowl would also brighten their faces with honor.

This is what being respectable means.

Just like now, there is hope to take over the Second Garment Factory.

Song Liang also went to see it.

But the workers at the factory were very resistant to them.

Everyone knew that the Second Garment Factory was one of Beidu’s well-known large factories.

It had been at the forefront of supporting national construction and was among the top in the garment industry.

This was different from No. 5 Factory, which had started as a small factory under the jurisdiction of the local office and had merely had a good timing to be titled as No. 5 Garment Factory. But in fact, there were only three significant factories.

It was normal for the workers here to look down on Zhilan Garment Factory, not to mention having a nouveau riche from the countryside taking over their factory and deciding their futures.

The workers disagreed, strongly opposing, even if you arranged jobs for them, they wouldn’t care.

Couldn’t we find our own way out?

Couldn’t one of our own people take over?

Why must we let an outsider dictate to us?

They were genuine national laborers; many years ago, they had started working in this factory, some even having three generations of their families here.

Although Zhilan Garment Factory was indeed doing well and had a famous reputation, what about the people it employed?

Housewives and unemployed youths, educated youth who returned to the city.

They weren’t like these veteran workers.

Not all workers are the same.

Could the wages of workers in a steel factory and those in a match factory be the same?

Not to mention anything else, when Factory No. 5 couldn’t pay salaries back then, they still managed to give bonuses and raise salaries.

They were inherently two levels higher; it’s just not comparable.

Song Liang went there once and never returned.

The factories he had now were enough to keep him busy.

Song Yunuan didn’t say much and went on to set up Zhilan Limited Company.

With plenty of incentives available now, her Fanhua was enjoying a decade of concessions.

It’s just that Song Yunuan was quite envious of the veteran workers at Factory No. 2, as almost every one of them was a treasure.

Where was the problem with Factory No. 2?

Song Yunuan had detailed investigation data in hand.

The reason was that the year before last, they had introduced so-called advanced equipment from abroad.

The factory manager at the time, who of course had since been ousted, had accepted bribes and thus the so-called advanced equipment was actually just a pile of scrap metal.

Everyone knows that making garments doesn’t require very advanced production equipment.

It isn’t a high-end precision instrument, after all.

The entire production process from raw materials to finished products, to tell the truth, a tailor could complete it with just a foot-pedal sewing machine and an iron.

Nowadays, handmade items account for a large part.

Even if automatic cutting machines, sewing machines, and pressing machines could be made in the future, they would still require manual operation.

The existing equipment in Factory No. 2 was completely adequate for current needs.

There was really no need to import from abroad.

But these past years, it’s been like a frenzy, various units importing equipment and production lines from abroad, many of which have been deceived.

Just like the situation with Factory No. 2, their production came to a complete standstill, and they hadn’t handed out salaries for a year now.

Let’s compare it this way, imagine a snack bar that was doing quite well, earning 1000 yuan in the nineties.

In the mid-nineties, the average monthly wage was about 300 yuan.

Comparing these, you could see the snack bar was making a good amount.

Then the owner’s son thought our snack bar’s business could be even better.

How could it be better?

How about I buy a robot?

He heard that thing doesn’t eat, doesn’t take commissions, doesn’t need a salary, can cook food and serve customers, and basically, just one robot could support a small shop.

A golden goose that lets you count cash while lying down?

Over the years, the snack bar had saved 100,000 yuan.

But the robot cost 1,000,000 yuan.

So, the owner’s son borrowed 900,000 yuan from the bank.

Then he negotiated with the seller, who agreed to sell the robot to him for 900,000 yuan.

He then pocketed the 100,000 yuan, which was what his parents had given him.

The robot was brought in.

He even fired the cooks and waiters.

Since labor costs were also high, the owner’s son felt very happy, and the owner thought it was quite good too.

Maybe they would really strike gold day by day.

But unexpectedly, the robot was a fake, part of a scam specifically set up to trap the owner’s son.

The robot lay there incapacitated, just a pile of scrap metal.

Then the owner incurred an unwarranted debt of 900,000 yuan.

Alas, the snack bar had scrimped and saved for over ten years to accumulate 100,000 yuan.

Just think, how many years would it take to repay those 900,000 yuan?
