Further 086

  Early this morning, Jiu Yu Ang sent an email saying that he had contacted a company that makes nano-needles, but they are still in the research and development stage and have not yet started trial production, let alone enter the market.

  。

  Chen Huaixing didn't have any hangover symptoms, or rather she was still a distance away from getting drunk last night. She immediately responded, first praising his "dedication" to work so early, then offering that if the company wanted to test their product, she had two willing volunteers here, two faces, and the medication used in the injections would be self-provided.

  Jyu Weng was very happy and sent an email again, he tragically arrived at the office at 7:30 and was starving while waiting for his colleagues to bring food over.

  Chen Haotian was in a good mood and told him several desserts, then began to study this "self-prepared" medicine.

  Then I studied while eating soy milk, fish balls and cha cai mian. Today's breakfast is very rich haha.

  Panghua from next door came knocking on the door.

  "I've eaten too much, I'm going to burst." But he wouldn't waste food anyway.

  Chen Haotian smiled and put away the last two dry T-shirts. "I left the noodles behind, everything else was eaten up."

  "Oh, I'll just throw it away. There's a trash can in the kitchen for food waste, I'll just pour it in there." He raised the plastic box in his hand, which wasn't suitable for throwing into the small trash can in the room.

  "Alright, thank you." Chen Huai Cheng handed over the neatly wrapped box.

  Given the good civilized habits cultivated in the studio, the two have always taken care of their surroundings, never littering or wasting packaging, trying not to use disposable products, and even doing a great job with garbage sorting. It's worth noting that Chen Huacheng now uses newly purchased biodegradable plastic bottles, and has specifically indicated this on her website and product packaging. Regardless of the consumers' reactions, at least she has done what is right in her own conscience. What's comforting is that some customers have already commented that these types of bottles are worth promoting. Moreover, the cost she spent on packaging hasn't increased significantly, it's just a bit more expensive, which is negligible compared to the overall cost of the contents.

  "Do you still have work later? Not to mention there's a museum we haven't been to yet."

  "Let's go for a walk. Take a stroll and have some tea by the sea."

  The museum is quite small, somewhat interesting, but it's done in half an hour. Then followed the map's recommendation, walked all the way to the seaside, saw that remodeled cafe. Okay, no tea to drink. Only coffee.

  Chen Haotian ordered an American coffee.

  Two people who fundamentally can't eat lunch at noon are digesting their food with coffee.

  "The sea breeze is comfortable and not too salty or humid."

  "So this is a treasure land." Chen Xuan commented. "It's just that the houses here are not for sale, and the rent is very expensive."

  Even with her thin memory, she still remembers the house where she lives now. It will be closed due to inability to afford rent in a few years.

  "It's still important to buy real estate early." Pang Hua sighed, then suddenly leaned in and asked, "Do you think we should buy a bigger office space?"

  "Is there that much cash? Even with a loan, it's still going to be partly in cash. And is it in your own name or the company's?"

  "The house across from us is for sale."

  "What did the landlord say to you?"

  "Yeah, it was a few days ago, just before we were about to leave, when we mentioned it. But I guess they were hinting that we should buy it and knock down the walls... but knocking down walls is still a bit of a hassle. Still, I'm quite tempted, and it's only 30% more expensive than what we paid for our place... at this price, I'd be willing to let it go."

  "The houses in this building, the attics are all too low." Pang Hua, who is tall and needs to bow his head, can barely stand upright at the height that Chen Huasheng can just about manage. "At this price, it's basically only worth selling as a single story. But even if we buy it, there's not much point - it's hard to resell."

  "Or shall we buy it in the company's name?"

  "There isn't that much money. If we take out a loan, it's possible they'll ask us for collateral."

  "Or go ask the bank?"

  Chen Hua Sheng raised his somewhat indistinct but very likable eyebrows, "You go ask the bank yourself first, it's also a good exercise."

  Pang Hua opened his mouth and finally nodded honestly, "Okay."

  "But...” Chen Huan hesitated for a moment. He swallowed another topic, "Ask the bank first and then we'll talk about it later. You also have time to study the financial statements. There are reports on my computer, last month's and last year's annual ones, take a look."

  Good

  。”

  “……”

  As they chatted, when the two felt hungry, it was already 1 o'clock in the afternoon! It's time to have lunch! So, let's just make do with a simple meal at the tea house.

  A mushroom, a chicken, one person with a tray, and a set meal. Although the price is not high, it's also dining with a sea view, so it's reasonable to pay for the scenery.

  In the afternoon, Chen and his friend bought some local specialties and then slowly strolled back to the hostel. In Chen's room, they each made a cup of instant coffee - although it didn't taste good, they could save dozens of yuan on coffee money - and began studying financial statements and cash flow.

  After calculating the approximate liquidity, I have a rough idea in my mind. If all online payment orders are applied for loans, they can indeed take out a loan in the company's name to buy the small house next door, even if it's not renovated, and use it as a warehouse to greatly alleviate the storage pressure of the two families' homes being filled with things and unable to control temperature and humidity.

  "If it really can't be turned over, then forget it, and don't pressure yourself too much." Pang Hua's eyes sparkled. In the past, Chen Xiao was always in charge, he just watched, but now he could also "participate" in management, uh, managing money.

  "No big deal, I'll clear out the current inventory at cost price. This way, we can not only alleviate the pressure on our working capital but also release some consumer power in advance. When we're busy moving to a new place, the workload for producing and shipping goods will be smaller."

  "It's a loss."

  "It's okay. The longer the raw materials are stored, the worse it is, and the turnover rate of funds is also low."

  "Our turnover rate is already considered high."

  "It's not considered high for an online store." Chen Hui changed the green tea in both of their teacups, pouring out the first round of water and then adding hot water that had been boiled before - "Hmm, just like this. Go back and pack your bags, we have to leave at 9 o'clock tomorrow. I made an appointment with the factory, meeting at the bank at 1 o'clock in the afternoon...and then just make it in time for the 5:30 flight."

  "Good." At this time, Pang Hua always listened and obeyed. "...Go eat? What's for dinner tonight? Crab?"

  "The crab meat is too little."

  "Then let's have some shellfish and mollusks. Hmm, no wine."

  Good

  。”

  Pang Hua was driven back to his own room, where he washed and changed his clothes before going out again in search of food.

  ……

  Two people found a small restaurant in the alley that served fresh seafood, which was reasonably priced for an island. The ingredients were fresh and delicious even without adding a lot of seasonings. Especially one serving of braised rice, they ate until they were stuffed.

  "Sigh, I must take more walks after meals."

  "Let's go take a look at the sea view. We're leaving tomorrow anyway."

  "Hey, why don't we sell our current house and my room too, then go buy a place by the sea?"

  "Humid, easy to damage electrical appliances; inconvenient transportation and life, and there are typhoons." Chen Hua's two sentences made Pang Hua's momentum disappear. "Ah, when I calculated this afternoon, I forgot to subtract the goods payment for tomorrow."

  "It's okay, at most we'll just increase the capital. Yeah, about 70-80% should be enough."

  "Hmm..." If Pang Hua increased her capital, she would raise his share ratio! After calculating the pros and cons, she didn't exploit him, nor did she give him too much, basically maintaining a fair degree. Whether as a lawyer or starting a company, she had her own "way", working hard and persevering, not swayed by others or external things. Hmm, speaking of which, her cold personality really doesn't match her age!

  "......Finished eating? Let's go?" Pang Hua paid the bill and came back, shaking his head and waving his hands to try to bring her back to reality.

  "Alright! I'm off."

  Today is Sunday, although the ferry may have stopped operating, there are still many people on the streets - these should all be tourists living on the island, with groups, couples and solo travelers, of all ages and accents, the only commonality being their leisurely pace.

  The sea breeze is quite cool and refreshing, with few mosquitoes. When walking on the narrow stone steps and cement road, people only feel relaxed.

  "Want a cup of juice or perhaps some green tea?" Pang Hua asked, pointing at the small beverage shop by the roadside.

  "Want, um, green tea. Drinking green tea after meals is better."

  Pang Hua went to buy drinks, and others also started following suit, lining up one after another.

  It seems like, yeah, most of the time it's the men who line up, while the ladies wait and drink what's already been prepared...

  As we were the first in line to order, our two cups of clear broth arrived relatively quickly.

  Chen Huaixing was about to leave when Pang Hua pulled her elbow and pointed at the road sign. Oh, they were going in the wrong direction.

  Turn onto the correct small stone road, winding and walking, with several small shops, inns, homes and homestays on both sides, warm or hot lights of various colors shining on the road surface, brighter than streetlights.

  There are people both in front and behind, and quite a few of them, so there won't be any fear of walking alone at night.

  "It's a bit hot, don't drink it for now."

  "Uh-huh."

  "Watch your step."

  "I know."

  The voices of the people around are quite soft, but the footsteps and music playing in the distance are coming and going. Especially the collision between high heels and the ground is particularly clear at night.

  "Is it just that piece in front near the statue?"

  "There are so many people——"

  "It's okay, I feel a bit less than during the day."

  "It seems like there's not much pollution here, I can see the stars."

  "Do you remember the starry sky map?"

  "I don't remember, I'm even unclear where the Big Dipper is."

  "It's probably spoon-shaped... I'm not sure either."

  "Don't you guys learn this in physics?"

  "I'm not from the astronomy department."

  "Oh, haha, you're just as bad as I am."

  "This is called specializing in one's profession."

  Two people chatted idly as they strolled slowly, sipping on a bitter and slightly sour clear coffee.
