Chapter 437: Opening the Factory Again
A year later, Li Shengli went to find Old Man Luo again. This time he was not so stubborn. After his daughter's persuasion, Old Man Luo knew that his daughter was not going to accept his hot pot restaurant, so he had to admit that Li Shengli was right.

After many negotiations, Li Shengli finally obtained the formula from Old Man Luo, but the two also agreed that Old Man Luo could continue to use the formula, but he could not sell it, let alone use it to open a chain store.

During their negotiation, Han Qiuyun took her three children back to Sijiu City. She was very relieved about Li Shengli. Judging from Li Shengli's usual behavior, he was not the kind of playboy.

After discussing these things, Li Shengli was ready to start setting up the factory. This was not in the old city, so Li Shengli's connections could not play much of a role here.

However, Li Shengli has other ideas. Opening a factory here can generate income for the local economy and provide many jobs, especially for those poorer districts and counties.

Li Shengli began to visit and investigate the entire Sichuan and Chongqing area. He needed to look at some of the production sites of chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, as well as transportation conditions to choose a location for his factory.

After some investigation, Li Shengli chose a location for the factory in a place where the economic conditions were not very good, but where there was not much shortage of labor in the county.

In this way, Li Shengli's factory can be regarded as an investment in this place. It can not only solve part of the employment problem of this poor county, but also make some contribution to the county's tax revenue.

Li Shengli himself doesn't think he is a good person, but he is still willing to do things like this to help others within his ability.

Especially, his little bit of kindness can give those nearby a chance to change their fate.

Three months passed in a flash. Li Shengli had almost finished working on the factory here and had found construction workers. The county's leadership team was very happy with Li Shengli's investment and they had given the green light to the matter.

Li Shengli was not too stingy with money, so under the encouragement of the county leadership team, Li Shengli's factory was quickly established. The most important thing was that the county leadership team helped Li Shengli solve a lot of troubles, and all Li Shengli needed to do was to invest in this county.

With the new leadership team giving him the green light, Li Shengli now has all the people, land and raw materials he needs.

The factory was built soon.

With the experience of establishing the previous food factory, Li Shengli copied the rules and regulations of the food factory this time. However, Li Shengli was short of people here, and the factory director he found was a prestigious and morally upright person in the vicinity. Therefore, he did not look for those highly educated and experienced people this time.

In fact, for a factory, the factory director’s academic qualifications are not particularly important. What is really important are the R&D personnel.

Li Shengli also specially hired Old Man Luo to be the production instructor of the factory. At least Old Man Luo has been making hot pot base for a lifetime.

When the factory production was back on track, Lee Seung-ri started advertising directly on TV. Lee Seung-ri was also preparing to return to the old city, where he had spent quite some time.

At the airport in Sijiucheng, after several hours of flight, Li Shengli finally returned to his base. When he got out of the airport, Li Chengzhi was waiting for Li Shengli outside. He was driving Li Shengli's car.

"Oh, you got your driver's license?" Li Shengli said with a forced smile. He had previously bought a car for his eldest son, but later Li Chengzhi took the time to learn how to drive and took a driver's license test in order to go on a date with his girlfriend.

When mentioning Lee Seung-ri, I want to talk about his son. He asked him to learn how to drive before, but he refused. Now that he has a girlfriend, he got a driver's license instead.

After getting in the car, Li Shengli threw his bag on the back seat and drove his son to the passenger seat. "Nothing has happened in the factory here recently." Li Shengli meant to ask if the Industrial and Commercial Bureau had received any anonymous reports to investigate his factory.

"They came here before when we first left, but then they stopped. I don't know why, and I didn't go to see Director Ma."

Li Shengli understood that when he left, it must be that Banggeng had made another anonymous reporting call. As for why he didn't make the call later, it was because Banggeng saw that the Industrial and Commercial Bureau didn't punish his factory much, and he knew there was nothing wrong with his factory.

Another reason is that the two people he found have been following Banggeng, and Lee Seungri also received a call. The two people he found told him everything that happened. Lee Seungri and Banggeng have reached a temporary reconciliation. If Banggeng continues like this, Lee Seungri might really find someone to break his legs.

I really think he has no temper, it's just that it's not worth it. Why should I use this precious jade to hit the stone?

"That's good." Since everything was normal, Li Shengli didn't have any other thoughts.

The next catering group can be rolled out.

He has already got the recipe for the hot pot base, and the next step is to slowly expand the market in different cities.

But the first thing to do is to open a store in the old city.

Thinking of this, Gu Bei had a new idea about teaching Bang Geng a lesson. He sells barbecue, and since he is going to open a restaurant business, why not open a chain of barbecue restaurants as well.

What's the point of the seasoning formula that Shazhu gave to Banggeng? A large part of the mutton used in the city now has a mutton smell. Li Shengli's business will eventually expand to the grasslands, so he can just take advantage of the mutton issue to find out a little bit.

However, even if he has to do these things, Li Shengli will take a temporary break first. He was already busy enough every day when he was in Chengdu. He is not young anymore and does not have that much energy.

When Li Shengli returned home, he was greeted by a table of delicious food prepared by his wife.

While Li Shengli was enjoying his meal, he asked his wife who in the clothing mall could take up the heavy burden. He did not intend to let his wife continue to work so hard. Although the clothing business is very profitable now, the work is tiring enough, especially for the customers he has to deal with, many of whom have bad tempers.

Now that he is rich, Lee Seung-ri doesn't want his wife to suffer anymore. At her age, wouldn't it be nice for her to take care of flowers and plants, go shopping and participate in some activities every day?

Han Qiuyun was also at a loss as to what to do because of Li Shengli. Although she still wanted to do something, Li Shengli did not give her the opportunity. Even Li Shengli himself began to hand over the business to his son, and he only had a slight control over the general direction.

Han Qiuyun had no choice but to give Li Shengli a candidate, who was someone she had observed for a long time in the clothing store. Although his abilities were not outstanding, he was a warm-hearted person with acceptable character.

Li Shengli never doubted Han Qiuyun's words, and immediately asked Han Qiuyun to inform her the next day that she would be the manager of the clothing store.
