49: Chapter 49 Materials Expert: Are You Kidding Me?

Wang Xiuming was stunned for a moment, looking at the thin, withered old man in front of him.

He suddenly smiled.

He actually had some guts.

It was a pity, though; he didn't know what exactly he was up against.

"I don't care what you're thinking or how much money you want."

"But you need to think clearly: even if I give you this money, can you actually use it?"

"Also, you've been throwing your weight around in this village for so many years; surely you're aware of what you've done, right?"

Wang Xiuming's expression was cold as he looked at the village chief.

The village chief's body trembled as he glanced at Huzi and then at Wang Xiuming.

He gave a bitter smile; it seemed he had lost.

Going against them was no different than a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"Ten million, then ten million it is."

"But I can't guarantee that my villagers will agree."

"They will agree!"

Wang Xiuming directly ignored the village chief's final threat.

Wang Xiuming knew all about his methods.

There were plenty of ways to deal with them.

With this village chief taken care of, everything else would be much easier.

In the remaining few days, he only needed to finish the paperwork.

"From now on, this place will be the Hongqi Power Company."

From this day forward, this hillside would be the place used to produce the Power System for Hongqi.

As the Power System continued to upgrade, it would subsequently produce gearboxes and other things related to the Power System.

Wang Xiuming also planned to move the heavy industry god king production line to another hillside here.

Hongqi Heavy Industry!

It was time to establish it as well.

As for the original factory building, it would just be used to produce cars.

"However, recruiting is a problem."

Wang Xiuming frowned.

Whether it was the heavy industry god king or the Power System, both were extremely important; taking out either one would be enough to change the world.

Whether it was the workers or the company management, they all had to be Wang Xiuming's trusted confidants.

Wang Xiuming really didn't have many confidants.

The most critical part was the entry-level employees.

The number was too high.

"Right, the system mall!"

Wang Xiuming suddenly remembered his system.

It contained everything; since there were high-level experts like Qian Weiyi, why wouldn't there be ordinary employees?

With a shift in his thoughts, a semi-transparent screen of the system mall appeared directly in front of Wang Xiuming.

After searching for a long time, Wang Xiuming finally found it in a special section.

Employees!

In this section, there were all kinds of job types, from high to low; there were experts as well as ordinary workers.

Wang Xiuming scrolled up and down and selected one type of employee.

This type of employee could be considered a seasoned talent.

They were very skilled in using various production lines and had no issues operating all kinds of production machinery.

The price was one point per year.

Converted, that meant it required one xiaolong s21 per year.

It was still acceptable.

A worker's average monthly salary was around five thousand, so when calculated this way, it was quite cost-effective.

Wang Xiuming was very satisfied with this type of worker.

Just their level of familiarity with various production lines and machinery was excellent.

Furthermore, since they were created by the system, it meant these people would absolutely never betray him.

This perfectly met Wang Xiuming's requirements.

"Let's just take 2,000 for now."

Wang Xiuming thought for a moment and entered this number.

After all, the ones who needed these workers were the production lines for the Power System and the heavy industry god king.

As for the workers in the other factory buildings, he would replace them slowly.

No choice, he was poor!

Wang Xiuming wished he could split every point in the system mall in half when spending them.

Three days later.

Hongqi Power Co., Ltd. was established.

In the dilapidated factory building, 2,000 people were lined up neatly.

"Hello, Chairman!"

The sound of a thousand people shouting in unison made the entire factory building tremble slightly.

At a glance, everyone was dressed in red work uniforms, and most of them were young, strong men.

Wang Xiuming nodded with satisfaction; this time, it was finally a bit more normal.

Thinking about it, if these workers were all like Qian Weiyi, Wang Xiuming would have a hard time accepting it.

Since these people were all created by the system, there was absolutely no need to worry about their identities or other aspects.

The Hongqi headquarters also had a roster of these people.

All procedures and channels were completely legal.

It was as if these people had always existed.

As expected, anything produced by the system must be a high-quality product.

"I'll leave these workers to you for the time being; remember, don't let too much trouble arise."

Wang Xiuming instructed Qian Weiyi and Qian Weier.

In three days, the original office building here had been converted into simple dormitories.

As for meals and such, they would temporarily use the staff from the Hongqi Auto Factory canteen.

The production lines for the Power System and the heavy industry god king had also been moved over.

They would be able to start production very soon.

However, there was one thing that was currently giving Wang Xiuming the biggest headache.

Yi.

This thing was too expensive!

Even though he could now purchase Yi through special channels, Wang Xiuming couldn't accept such a price.

As for the system mall, the manufacturing method for Yi also required 200,000 points.

This was nearly half of Wang Xiuming's net worth; to be honest, he couldn't bear to part with it.

"Qian Weier, is there any material that can replace Yi?"

Wang Xiuming asked Qian Weier.

He was a Power System expert, after all; what if he had a way?

"Boss, I am a Power System expert, not a materials expert."

Qian Weier's face twisted into a bitter grimace.

These were completely different fields, okay?

Although he knew a lot about materials, it was limited to just knowledge.

"A materials expert!"

"Damn, why didn't I think of that!"

Wang Xiuming's eyes lit up; what if a materials expert had a way to manufacture Yi?

Or they could directly find a substitute material for Yi!

Thinking this, Wang Xiuming opened the system mall directly.

He checked the price of a materials expert.

30,000 points.

Not expensive!

He'd take it!

If this person could really give Wang Xiuming what he wanted, it would be truly worth it!

With anticipation in his eyes, Wang Xiuming looked at the materials expert who suddenly appeared in front of him.

The system seemed to have heard Wang Xiuming's call; this time, the materials expert was a woman.

She had a petite and delicate figure, was very young, and looked to be around twenty years old.

"Hello, Boss!"

Wang Xiuming nodded and asked impatiently, "Do you know how to manufacture Yi?"

The materials expert thought for a moment and nodded. "I do."

Great!

Wang Xiuming's face lit up with joy; this was exactly like someone bringing a pillow just when he was feeling sleepy!

"But!"

The next two words from the materials expert made the corner of Wang Xiuming's mouth twitch.

Hearing these two words, it was definitely nothing good.

Sure enough, what the materials expert said next left Wang Xiuming completely depressed.

"The manufacturing of Yi is even more difficult than mining it, and the machinery required for manufacturing cannot be created with current technology."

What is this? He had been happy for nothing.

"However!"

The materials expert's eyes twinkled with craftiness. "I can find a substitute material for Yi, and what's more, it exists in this world!"

Are you putting me on a rollercoaster?

Are you kidding me?!
