Jiang Tian never expected that she would have such good fortune in her life.

Just when I was thinking of setting up a sanitary napkin factory, a ready-made one appeared at my doorstep.

It's such a pity. The old brand "Elegant" should be the most valuable asset of their factory besides the production line.

It’s a pity that this golden signboard was smashed by the old factory director’s daughter and son-in-law.

Is it worth it just to sell that batch of defective sanitary napkins and recover some losses for the factory?

If it were Jiang Tian, ​​she would destroy the batch of defective sanitary napkins in public, and then find a large group of media reporters to report the incident, taking the opportunity to promote the "elegant" brand.

But, as Hu Qiongfang said, this is impossible.

The older generation of Chinese people are used to a frugal life. When there were no sanitary napkins before, people used menstrual belts and wood ash. A good sanitary napkin, looking snow-white and clean, and not damaged, if all of them were destroyed, people would instead criticize the "elegant" sanitary napkins for wasting national resources.

Without further ado, Hu Qiongfang took Jiang Tian to the provincial capital overnight, and early the next morning, they blocked the new factory director at the factory gate.

The sanitary napkin factory, which used to be bustling with people, has been on holiday for many days. The factory is deserted and there is no one there.

Hu Qiongfang called the new factory director Jiang Mingyue in advance and made an appointment. The security guard at the door took them directly to the factory director's office.

Jiang Mingyue looked very young, with a fair, delicate face and watery almond-shaped eyes. Although she looked a little haggard due to the changes that had happened at home in recent days, she also had a hint of fragility that made her look even more pitiful.

Hu Qiongfang couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

As a mother, I really can’t bear to watch this scene!

In the past two years, Hu Qiongfang has gradually begun to learn how to preserve her health. In the past, no matter whether it was cold winter or hot summer, she would either not drink water or drink a large glass of boiled water.

Now she carries a thermos cup with her wherever she goes. The things she brews in it change according to the season and her physical condition, including but not limited to wolfberry, chrysanthemum, astragalus, codonopsis, longan, red dates, angelica, salvia miltiorrhiza, etc.

Every now and then, I would go to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital to get some foot-soaking prescriptions for myself and my two children to soak their feet for health preservation.

What is it for?

Isn't it just to live a few more years in good health?

As the saying goes, raising a child for a hundred years is a matter of worry for ninety-nine. As parents, what they fear most is encountering a situation like Jiang Mingyue's. When their daughter needs help the most, they are no longer there.

However, what Hu Qiongfang did not expect was that after Jiang Mingyue opened her mouth, her sympathy and compassion disappeared without a trace, just like a dandelion blown away by a gust of wind.

When Jiang Mingyue heard that they wanted to buy the factory, she offered them a high price that they had never expected!

The reason is simple and naive: "Elegant" sanitary napkins, no matter what, are the first sanitary napkin factory in the province, and this brand is even more valuable than the factory itself.

But she didn't plan to sell the factory and the brand separately. If Hu Qiongfang wanted to buy them, she could only buy both together.

Hu Qiongfang sighed, "Director Jiang, didn't you hear that people out there are cursing the 'elegant' sanitary napkins?"

"This brand was indeed very valuable in the past, I admit."

"But now, it has become a hot potato."

"Let me put it this way. I want to buy your factory. What I really want is the land underneath your factory."

"Your factory building, including the sanitary napkin production line, has aged so badly. Director Jiang, you must know that these are worthless."

"As for your comment that the 'Elegant' brand is more valuable than the factory? I don't know who gave you this wrong idea, but you can try to ask other buyers if they are willing to buy this brand."

Jiang Mingyue frowned and retorted: "Boss Hu, you guys who run restaurants in towns and villages may not understand the business logic here. In foreign countries, for old brands like ours, brand value is the most valuable asset of a company."

"Besides, before you came, Anle had someone ask for information. They were willing to buy the factory and the brand together. Otherwise... I might have sold the factory to Anle's boss by now."

Now that the other party has said this, is there nothing more to talk about?

Hu Qiongfang stood up politely, thought about it, and for the sake of the old factory director, she sincerely reminded Jiang Mingyue -

"Director Jiang, if you really want to keep this brand left by your mother, it's best not to sell it to anyone else, whether it's Anle or me."

"You are still young. When you reach my age, you will understand one thing: never hand over the things you think are most precious to others."

"Because what you consider to be more precious than life may be worthless garbage to outsiders."

Jiang Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and her face instantly became very ugly.

Hu Qiongfang observed carefully and found that Jiang Mingyue didn't understand the meaning of her words at all, and she was secretly disappointed.

It seems that the old factory director’s half life’s hard work may no longer be preserved.

However, what she didn't expect was that the next day after they came back, Jiang Mingyue actually called Hu Qiongfang and said that she wanted to meet with her again.

It's just that it's a little special.

…

This was the first time Jiang Tian had come to a detention center in her two lifetimes.

Yesterday Jiang Mingyue said on the phone that she had decided to leave the matter of selling the factory to her husband Liu Jie. Therefore, if Hu Qiongfang wanted to buy the factory, she would have to make the difficult trip to the detention center with her to have a face-to-face meeting with Liu Jie.

It was also the first time that Hu Qiongfang returned to the detention center to discuss business with someone.

Before coming, she specially asked someone and prepared a pack of cigarettes, some biscuits, chocolates, etc. for Liu Jie, which could be regarded as a special "greeting gift".

I heard that people who visit the detention center will bring these things with them.

Liu Jie looked fair and clean, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He had a thin and upright figure, and a pair of peach blossom eyes hidden behind the lenses. They were particularly outstanding. When he looked at others, he unconsciously carried a hint of tenderness.

No wonder when Jiang Mingyue mentioned her husband on the phone, her tone was much gentler than the last time they met.

He suffered such a huge setback that his career was completely ruined. If it were an ordinary person, he would have never recovered.

However, Liu Jie looked as if he had figured it all out.

The negative impact of this incident is too great, and he will definitely be sentenced. Once sentenced, he will lose his job in the system.

The only capital Liu Jie has now to turn things around is the money from selling the factory and this old brand, which he is not sure whether it is good or bad.

He proposed a new trading method to Hu Qiongfang:

The old brand "Elegance" is not for sale and still belongs to them.

The remaining factory buildings, land, equipment, etc. would be converted into market value, and they would only take half in cash. He wanted to use the remaining half to invest in Hu Qiongfang's new factory.
