Chapter 94: Brother Companies

  Ideals and reality are always so far apart. Hei Zi sorted out his thoughts and found that in the past, he just wanted to become stronger, to let Tan Mei see that he was not inferior to anyone. With the start of his career and the expansion of his business scale, he felt it necessary to build a vast commercial empire, only then would he not have lived in vain.

  Heizi and Zhu Xiaofei, Wu Yu discussed and decided to establish Brothers Limited Company. The company implemented a shareholding system, and the brothers shared the company's shares equally. Heizi proposed that when dividing the shares, Zhao Bin, Liu Pengfei, and Wumei should also be included. Zhu Xiaofei had no objection, and Wu Yu did nothing but participated and got a part of the shares. As for Heizi's division method, he had no objection either.

  When they told Liu Pengfei their idea, Liu Pengfei refused to agree no matter what. Then Heizi called Zhao Bin again to ask for his opinion, and Zhao Bin also disagreed with including himself in it. He told Heizi that he wanted to make a name for himself and couldn't just take advantage of an existing opportunity.

  The company was registered in the name of Heizi, Zhu Xiaofei, Wu Yu and Wumei jointly operating with a quarter of the shares each. Heizi served as chairman of the board, and Zhu Xiaofei served as general manager.

  After the company was successfully registered, Heizi rented a storefront in the development zone of the county town and had a sign made. Several brothers chose an auspicious day to hold a grand opening ceremony, inviting friends and clients from the district, county, and steel companies.

  Hei Zi and Zhu Xiao Fei then found the iron factory's director, Zhao Lao Tou Er, and told him about their idea. They wanted to put the mine entrance, ore dressing plant, pelletizing plant, and mine mouth under the management of the iron factory, with Zhao Lao Tou Er in charge. After thinking for a while, Zhao Lao Tou Er agreed.

  Hei Zi then took Zhao Lao Tou to see the mine entrance, the ore dressing plant and the pelletizing plant. The mining was contracted out, and the personnel arrangement of the ore dressing plant and the pelletizing plant were all handed over to Zhao Lao Tou. Hei Zi only assigned two small brothers who had followed Da Kui to work as deputy factory directors in the iron factory to assist Zhao Lao Tou with his work. In fact, these two people just ran errands, and all rights were concentrated in Zhao Lao Tou's hands.

  The remaining bus company was handed over to Yin Le Guan, KTV and restaurants were still managed by the original manager.

  The company was founded by Hei Zi and after they were busy for a while, they found that all of them had nothing to do.

  Wu Yu told his family that he had a formal job, and he even took his parents to the company once. Wu Yu's parents finally felt at ease with him, and he could live in the county town every day.

  Wu Mei saw Wu Yu easily handle the family members, so she also learned to bring her own parents to the county town's brother company. Secretary Xiao still didn't trust Wu Mei, so in the end, Wu Mei had no choice but to take Secretary Xiao to see the restaurant, KTV, and iron factory. It was only then that Secretary Xiao believed Wu Mei's words, he hadn't expected that Wu Mei actually had shares in these enterprises. All parents hope their children will make a name for themselves, so Secretary Xiao also let go and allowed Wu Mei to develop, rarely interfering with her affairs.

  The company was founded by four people who came to work in a similar manner. On the first day of work, they felt very awkward. Hei Zi sat at the chairman's desk and found that there were only two deputy managers accompanying the chairman and general manager, but no employees.

  Xiao Fei walked into Hei Zi's office, pushing open the door to see Hei Zi sitting at his desk in a daze: "Lao Wu, what kind of company is this? There isn't even one employee."

  Wu Yu came to the door and pushed open the standing at the door Zhu Xiaofei said: "Old three, or I'll call all the brothers to work."

  They were talking when Wu Mei pushed open the door and said to Zhu Xiaofei and Wu Yu: "Move aside, I have something to discuss with the chairman."

  Wu Mei came in and took a look, saying to Hei Zi who was sitting at the table: "Hei Dong, I have a suggestion. Why don't our company hire any employees either? This place is so big, I think it's not bad to start here."

  "Wu Mei, we're not short of money now, what's the point of opening a stall?" Wu Yu said with a smile.

  "Sister, third aunt, don't call me Hei Dong from now on." Heizi said discontentedly.

  "Alright, you call me Big Sister and I won't call you Black Dong, otherwise, hehe." Fifth Sister threatened Hei Zi.

  "Director Zong, control your wife for me. I'm working hard for your family, but she's bullying me." Hei Zi complained to Zhuo Xiaofei.

  A few people joked for a while and Xiao Fei said: "Lao Wu, why not let Xiaoling come to work here every day? There should be someone here after all."

  Hei Zi has been considering integration for the past few days, and only after sorting everything out did he realize that the parent company also needs to be managed. At the end of each month, each subsidiary must report its operating results, and the parent company must establish a financial department to manage funds.

  Hei Zi and the other three were busy for half a month before they recruited three financial personnel. The three people were all old hands at finance, and soon they established the fund account. Then Hei Zi took the three financial personnel to visit each subsidiary company, so that the financial personnel of each subsidiary company could get to know them, in preparation for the company's financial integration at the end of the month.

  The brothers were not used to going to the company every day, and they got tired of it after a few days. Hei Zi gave Da Kui and Er Cheng the title of deputy manager, and every day they brought Hu Changfu and Hai Man to the company to work. Hei Zi and his group lived freely again, only appearing when there was something going on at the company.

  Summer went and autumn came, the days passed very quietly. One day Hei Zi was chatting with Wu Yu and Zhu Xiao Fei when he suddenly received a call from Liu Peng Fei.

  "Hei Zi, come quickly and help me out, I've run into trouble." Liu Pengfei's voice was urgent, there were many people chattering and shouting in the background of the phone call, it was very chaotic.

  "Where are you? What's going on?" Hei Zi hastily asked.

  "I'm at the demolition site in Xicheng. You guys hurry up and come, we'll talk when you arrive." Liu Pengfei said before hanging up the phone.

  Hei Zi didn't dare to delay, after briefly explaining the situation to Wu Yu and Zhu Xiao Fei, the three of them drove straight to the Xicheng demolition site.

  The car stopped by the side of the road, and Hei Zi saw that there were several hundred people on the construction site. The scene was chaotic, with some houses already knocked down by excavators, and bricks and tiles scattered all over the place. A group of migrant workers were still holding iron shovels and other tools.

  Hei Zi and his friends made their way through the crowd, taking slow steps, until they finally saw Liu Peng Fei.

  Liu Pengfei wore a light gray suit, tied with a tie, looking very formal. Two middle-aged men wearing the same clothes stood beside him. Judging from their demeanor, they should be government officials. Across from them were migrant workers holding iron hoes and pickaxes. Next to the migrant workers was a group of thugs with dyed yellow and green hair, wearing iron chains, and even a few bare-chested ones with tattoos on their chest and back.

  "Big brother, what's going on?" Hei asked as he arrived at Liu Pengfei's side.

  Xiao Fei and Wu Yu also followed, asking about the situation.

  Liu Pengfei turned his head and saw them coming, saying: "Old Five, I've been transferred to work at the demolition office, something's come up here."

  "What are they going to do?" Heizi pointed at the mixed-blood opposite and said: "Big brother, do you want me to gather the brothers."

  Liu Pengfei shook his head and said, "No need, I've already gathered people. Now I want to talk to them through regular channels, and the money that should be given must be taken out."

  These days, Hei Zi and his company have been busy with the integration of companies and opening new ones, so he hasn't had time to contact Liu Pengfei. As soon as Liu Pengfei entered the demolition office, he encountered a developer who hired people to forcibly demolish it. He wanted to step forward to stop them, but unexpectedly, the developer's underlings told Liu Pengfei that the demolition office had taken their money and told him to get out of the way and not disturb Old Master Hao's demolition work.

  Liu Pengfei, although he himself was also muddling through, couldn't stand the developer bullying the common people just because they had a bit of money. He decided to use his position as head of the demolition office to stop the demolition and protect the interests of the common people.
