There are many ports of various sizes in Lu Province, so most of the oil imported into our country is unloaded here.
Because of this.
The refining industry in Lu Province ranks among the top in the country! In addition to a few well-known large state-owned enterprises, there are countless private refineries, like fish crossing the river.
The main task requires Xu Zhengyang's refinery to produce diesel, gasoline, and kerosene.
These are all within the business scope of fuel-type refineries.
In addition to producing various types of fuel, crude oil can also yield other industrial products such as asphalt, ethylene, and petroleum coke.
Compared to asphalt, ethylene, and petroleum coke.
Various fuels are the easiest products to sell!
For this reason.
Among the many private refineries in Lu Province, the vast majority are fuel-type refineries!
Thus, under Da Bai's selection.
Xu Zhengyang quickly locked onto a private fuel-type refinery named Chengxin.
The boss of this refinery, Sun Renqing, is a rare private enterprise boss with a conscience.
In recent years.
Due to the continuous downturn in the overall environment, large oil companies in Lu Province have begun to squeeze the survival space of these small factories to maintain their growth.
Because of this.
Since Sun Renqing has a conscience, his refinery was one of the first in Lu Province to struggle and be on the verge of bankruptcy.
Even so.
Sun Renqing did not give up and resort to asset division to become a deadbeat.
Instead, he chose to mortgage his own house to secure funds to pay the workers' wages first.
Such integrity.
When Xu Zhengyang learned about Sun Renqing from Da Bai, he couldn't help but exclaim, "A real man."
Xu Zhengyang held a certain respect for such a responsible man.
Moreover, the equipment at Sun Renqing's refinery was all newly purchased in the past two years and was in good condition.
So Xu Zhengyang decisively chose to take over Sun Renqing's factory.
...
Earlier on the high-speed train.
Xu Zhengyang had already communicated with Sun Renqing over the phone.
So as soon as he stepped out of the train station, he saw Sun Renqing holding a sign made of six A4 sheets, with "Welcome Mr. Xu Zhengyang" written on it, waiting at the exit.
Sun Renqing, in his fifties, was wearing a faded work uniform.
He stood about 1.8 meters tall, with a lean build but bright eyes, clearly a man of action.
Upon seeing him, Xu Zhengyang immediately approached and said, "Boss Sun? I am Xu Zhengyang."
"Boss Xu?"
Although Sun Renqing had already guessed over the phone that Xu Zhengyang was likely a young man.
When he actually saw Xu Zhengyang, he couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.
Xu Zhengyang's attire was very simple; he looked more like a recent college graduate than a young entrepreneur.
Would someone like this...
Really buy his factory?
Though Sun Renqing thought this way, the bank had been pressing him for interest lately, and he was now at his wit's end.
So Sun Renqing could only treat this dead horse as a live one and asked Xu Zhengyang, "Are you here alone, Boss Xu?"
"Yes."
Xu Zhengyang nodded in response.
"..."
He came alone, without even a secretary or a business lawyer...
Sun Renqing felt completely disheartened.
Although Sun Renqing had a conscience and a bottom line, that didn't mean he was a fool.
Based on his decades of experience.
Sun Renqing had already concluded that Xu Zhengyang was a scammer; even if he couldn't swindle his money, he would at least trick him into a reception meal.
If it were any other time.
Being scammed would be one thing; a meal wouldn't cost much.
But now.
Sun Renqing was burdened with debt and was unwilling to deal with such matters, so he was just about to exchange a few pleasantries and head back.
However, Xu Zhengyang directly said, "Let's go see your factory. If it's suitable, we can sign the contract right away, and I'll transfer the money to you on the spot."
"??"
Sun Renqing was taken aback, thinking he had misheard.
But when he regained his composure and processed Xu Zhengyang's words, he couldn't help but ask, "Boss Xu, are you saying we will sign the contract today?"
"Why not?"
Xu Zhengyang waved his hand dismissively and said, "We're all quite busy, so let's get it done quickly!"
"..."
What a straightforward approach!
Sun Renqing was stunned for a while before he finally reacted and quickly led Xu Zhengyang to the parking area, saying, "Boss Xu, please, my car is over here."
"Okay."
Xu Zhengyang complied.
...
*Sun Renqing's Chengxin Refinery is located in the suburbs.
Because of this.
The drive took nearly two hours before they finally arrived at their destination.
Although Chengxin Refinery is not large and produces a limited range of products, only gasoline, diesel, and kerosene, the entire factory is not only well-organized but also very clean.
Various fire safety facilities are installed in the most convenient and visible places.
Da Bai had already learned about the specific situation of this factory through the surveillance and various electronic devices at Chengxin Refinery.
To some extent, Xu Zhengyang understood the factory better than Sun Renqing did.
So Xu Zhengyang only pretended to follow Sun Renqing for a brief tour before directly stating, "I'm very satisfied with this. I want it.
Boss Sun, take me to the office. Let's discuss the price, and after we sign the contract, I'll transfer the money to you."
"???"
Sun Renqing, having lived for over half a century, had never encountered such a situation.
But since Xu Zhengyang had said so.
"Alright."
Sun Renqing replied.
Even if he was a scammer.
He would only waste a little time.
Sun Renqing thought this way and readily led Xu Zhengyang to the office in the factory area.
Discussing the price, signing the contract, and transferring the money.
Sun Renqing offered a fair price, and since Xu Zhengyang wasn't short on cash, he didn't bother to negotiate and directly finalized the contract, transferring the money to Sun Renqing on the spot.
When Sun Renqing saw the numbers in his account, he was utterly bewildered.
He had never done such a straightforward deal in his life; for a moment, he even thought he was dreaming! "Hiss—"
Feeling the pain, Sun Renqing released his grip on his thigh, incredulously asking Xu Zhengyang, "Is it really this simple?"
"Then what else should it be?"
Xu Zhengyang replied, puzzled, "You quoted a fair price, and I urgently need the equipment. Isn't it that simple?"
After saying this.
Xu Zhengyang exchanged a few pleasantries with Sun Renqing and then directly sent him off, allowing Sun Renqing to leave his factory with the money!
...
Working at an oil refinery generates waste gas, so Chengxin Refinery was built in a desolate suburban area.
Once Sun Renqing had walked far away and there was no one else around.
Xu Zhengyang immediately took out his Engineering Robot from the Dimensional Space Pocket and had Da Bai control it to start dismantling the refinery's equipment!
