Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

Chapter 1095: Chapter 432: Wen Ruan? Wen Ruan! (2)

The Wenshun family emptied their savings a couple of years ago to make a down payment on a small 86-square-meter two-bedroom apartment here.

”Knock, knock, knock—” Wen Jianxin knocked on the door.

After a moment, the door was opened.

The gray-haired Uncle Guanghua peeked out and, upon seeing the two standing at the door, especially Wen Ruan, exhibited an indescribable surprise on his face.

”Jianxin, Ruannuan, you’re here!”

It’s been two months since Wen Ruan initially promised to help find a job, and to say he wasn’t anxious would be a lie.

He had previously checked with Wen Jianxin, but the response was that Wen Ruan had just joined the company as an executive and hadn’t yet secured her position, so she couldn’t help out just yet, asking him to wait a little longer.

Because he was asking for a favor, Uncle Guanghua naturally didn’t dare urge too impatiently, so he had to wait anxiously.

Unexpectedly, Wen Ruan had come by today of her own accord.

”Uncle Guanghua, is Brother Pingshun doing okay?”

”Nothing serious, come on in and have a seat. Ah, you came all this way and still brought something.”

Talking as they entered the house.

Wen Ruan glanced around at the simple and modestly decorated environment, her expression slightly startled.

On the living room sofa, besides Wen Pingshun, sat a middle-aged man with glasses.

Around fifty years old, wearing a polo shirt, slightly plump, looking rather imposing.

Wen Jianxin smiled and said, ”Yunxiang, you’re here too, huh.”

Wen Ruan also politely greeted.

Wen Yunxiang sat upright on the sofa, calmly nodding at the two of them.

Although Wen Yunxiang’s age and seniority were not particularly high, he was a significant figure in their family.

In 1997, when printing workshops were just emerging in the village where the family was from.

Wen Yunxiang was among the first to lead family members in co-founding small factories, managing over twenty people under him.

Mainly undertaking printing business like workbooks, financial ledgers, receipts, and envelopes, they also made quite a bit of money.

He bought property in the city early on.

Later, in 2008, due to environmental and urban planning issues, the Yanbei Printing Factory was established.

After joining the company, Wen Yunxiang, with his outstanding networking skills and reputation, became the workshop manager of the offset printing workshop within just a few years.

He was also the highest-ranked person from their family at the Yanbei Printing Factory.

Including Uncle Guanghua and Wen Jianxin, they were once employees under him.

Next to him, Wen Pingshun quickly stood up and warmly invited, ”Uncle Jianxin, Ruannuan, have a seat over here.”

Wen Ruan casually sat on the sofa, gently placing her bag on her lap, ”Brother Pingshun, how are you feeling?”

”It wasn’t that serious to begin with, but the doctor was afraid there would be issues, so he insisted I stay a couple more days.” Wen Pingshun smiled shyly and took out disposable cups, pouring tea for the two of them.

”Better to be cautious.”

The few of them exchanged pleasantries in the living room.

Noticing Uncle Guanghua’s numerous hesitant expressions, Wen Ruan softly said, ”Brother Pingshun, after this, don’t deliver food for now. I’ve arranged your job. The specific position isn’t determined yet; we need to see your preferences. Focus on recovery first; don’t worry about other things.”

Upon hearing this, Uncle Guanghua and Wen Pingshun stood up excitedly, continually expressing their gratitude.

Uncle Guanghua grinned widely, his eyes, wrapped in wrinkles, a bit moist.

Wen Ruan, her gaze soft, said, ”Uncle Guanghua, you’ll be retiring in a few years, so relax, life will get better and better.”

”Thank you, Ruannuan.” Uncle Guanghua couldn’t help but sigh, ”With so much debt at home and over 4,000 in mortgage payments every month, how can I retire? Right now, I just want to find something to do.”

Wen Ruan reassured, ”Isn’t the printing factory about to be taken over? With so many workers, there will definitely be a satisfactory solution for everyone at that time.”

Soon after, laughter erupted.

Wen Yunxiang, who had remained silent, shook his head and spoke, ”You think it’s that simple? Is there such a good thing?”

Wen Ruan slightly raised her eyebrows, ”What do you mean, Uncle Yunxiang?”

Wen Yunxiang took out a cigarette, lit it, and spoke leisurely, ”I’ve interacted with the manager and the representatives of the acquiring party; you don’t understand the situation at all.

This group specializes in financial mergers and acquisitions, extremely professional, with impressive backgrounds.

They even persuaded government leaders to personally coordinate and resolve the disputes between the printing factory and the bank.

Not only did they reach a debt extension agreement, but they also waived 30% of the interest.

With such a grand gesture, it certainly isn’t for our bankrupt printing factory. It’s likely because they have their eyes on the land.

I’m telling you, if we can pay the owed wages and severance compensation in the end, that’ll be the best outcome.”

Hearing this, Uncle Guanghua and Wen Jianxin both sighed.

The printing factory owed them four months’ wages, had interrupted social security, and couldn’t pay layoff compensations either.

Everyone had lost confidence in the printing factory.

”This might not necessarily be the case,” Wen Ruan chuckled softly, ”I’ve gotten some inside information—the acquiring party will also bring a batch of orders, which will help the printing factory get through the difficult time.”

The main reason she didn’t directly say it was because she herself had never shown up, and she didn’t have any direct proof.

Even if she spoke out, others wouldn’t believe and would require her to explain a lot.

Simply securing the printing factory before tomorrow would be more effective than anything she could say.

Moreover, it would give these relatives some shock.

As Wen Ruan finished speaking, the few people paused, showing various expressions on their faces.

Wen Jianxin was surprised, ”Ruannuan, why haven’t I heard you mention this before? Really? Where did you hear it from?”

”I work in media now; naturally, I’m more well-informed.”

Uncle Guanghua excitedly chimed in, ”Yes, yes, Ruannuan is now an executive at a media company, definitely knows more than us!”
