Chapter 1 Acquisition of a Loss-Making Garment Factory

"Mr. Chen, based on the actual inspection of the Clothing Factory and the valuation of its equipment, the acquisition price of 400,000 is a bit too high."

"Also, this Clothing Factory's profitability over the past few months has been problematic; it's been operating at a loss. I think you should reconsider."

In Jiang City,

Inside an upscale coffee shop,

Lawyer Tang took a sip of coffee and looked up at the young man across from her.

The young man was not old, only in his early twenties, dressed in casual sportswear, looking very sunny and handsome.

She just couldn't understand why he would buy a factory that was operating at a loss.

"Thank you, Lawyer Tang, but I've already made up my mind. 400,000 it is. Bargaining is too much trouble."

Chen Mo smiled faintly. He didn't care about what she had just said.

He just wanted to acquire the company as soon as possible and then spend the one million system funds.

That's right,

It was a system.

He was also a transmigrator; rather than transmigrating, it was more like being reborn into a parallel world with memories of his previous life.

The history of this world was largely consistent with that of his original world, but recent developments had deviated slightly. Some well-known songs, popular movies, games, and other works… no longer existed.

If it were according to the development of other novels, he could have basically made a fortune by plagiarizing works from a parallel world, but he found that it simply wouldn't work.

For example, with movies, he only remembered the general plot. If he were asked to write a script, he wouldn't be able to.

So, from childhood to adulthood, his greatest achievement was during elementary school. Relying on his memories from his previous life, he didn't need to study much to rank among the top in exams.

He became 'someone else's child' in the mouths of most parents.

This continued all the way through high school and college.

Just when he thought this life would continue as such, the system suddenly appeared.

The time was three days ago, the moment he received his university graduation certificate.

Thinking of this,

Chen Mo's consciousness turned to the system panel in his mind.

【Host: Chen Mo】

【System Funds: 1,000,000】

【Personal Assets: 3,527】

【Settlement Cycle: One week (Countdown: 2 days 2 hours 56 minutes 49 seconds)】

【All future profits of the Host's company will be injected into System Funds and will not be counted as Personal Assets. Personal Assets can only be converted during settlement.】

【Fund Conversion Rules】

1: Settlement One, Full Conversion:

If the Host's remaining System Funds are less than one-thousandth of the total System Funds, the System Funds will be fully converted into Personal Assets. (Taking 1,000,000 as an example; if the Host spends the System Funds down to below 1,000, he can fully convert 1,000,000 into Personal Assets.)

2: Settlement Two, Partial Conversion:

If the Host's remaining System Funds are greater than one-thousandth of the total System Funds, one-thousandth of the spent System Funds will be converted into Personal Assets. (Taking 1,000,000 as an example: if the Host spends 990,000, leaving 10,000, and the remaining funds are greater than 1,000, then one-thousandth of the 990,000 spent will be converted into Personal Assets, which is 990.)

【System Funds Usage Regulations】

1: The system will replenish a certain amount of System Funds for the Host after each settlement cycle. These funds must be spent on all matters related to company operations, and the Host must not spend them arbitrarily.

2: The Host must not intentionally operate at a loss, be passively negligent, and all company expenses must be reasonable and legitimate.

3: The company must not operate illegal or unethical projects; it must support positive energy.

4: The Host must not engage in stock trading, virtual currencies, etc.

5: The Host must not use the company to gain personal benefits, including paying himself a salary.

6: The Host must not reveal the existence of the system to anyone.

For detailed information, please expand the remaining 99+ regulations…

【Note: The system will provide a warning before the Host commits a violation.】

Having his own company and then using the company to spend the one million system funds down to below 1,000, he could successfully convert the entire one million system funds into personal assets and become a millionaire.

This was Chen Mo's summary after acquiring the system.

As for partial conversion, he didn't even consider it. How could it be as appealing as full conversion?

The company's issues could be resolved today. As for the problems the lawyer mentioned,

Were those even problems?

His biggest problem now was how to reasonably spend the system funds before the settlement, once the company was in his hands.

After all, there were only a little over two days left now.

"Mr. Chen."

Lawyer Tang, seeing Chen Mo somewhat distracted, gently called out.

"Hmm!"

Chen Mo came back to his senses and looked at Lawyer Tang in confusion.

Lawyer Tang was a bit speechless, seeing him distracted while she was explaining the company's problems.

However, out of professional courtesy, she patiently brought up some issues.

"Based on my understanding of the company, I suspect there might be an issue with unpaid employee wages. I recommend clarifying this when signing the contract later."

"Wages? It's fine. Money is not an issue."

Chen Mo waved his hand indifferently.

This…

Lawyer Tang sighed inwardly at Chen Mo's indifferent attitude.

Never mind,

If he didn't care, why should she worry so much?

She checked the time; it was almost the agreed-upon hour, so she waited quietly.

Not long after,

A middle-aged man in a suit with thinning hair walked into the coffee shop, looked around, and then walked over.

"Mr. Chen, Lawyer Tang, I apologize for making you wait."

Liu Cheng walked to where Chen Mo and Lawyer Tang were sitting and greeted them with a smile.

Today was probably the happiest day he'd had in a while, because the factory that had been losing money was about to be bought, and at a price even higher than he had expected.

Chen Mo saw the newcomer and smiled, pointing to the seat on the other side of the table.

"Mr. Liu, please have a seat. What would you like to drink?"

"No, thank you. Let's talk about signing the contract."

Liu Cheng waved his hand. The problem of that loss-making factory had worried him so much his hair was falling out; he had no mood for coffee.

"In that case, let's begin."

Chen Mo readily agreed. He also had the same idea; the sooner the company was transferred to his name, the sooner he could spend money freely.

There were only a little over two days left until the settlement date, and he didn't want the time to run out before he had spent all the money.

That would be a huge loss.

Lawyer Tang was a bit speechless at their eagerness. She could understand Liu Cheng's eagerness to sell a loss-making company.

But why was the buyer so eager? Couldn't he try to lower the price? Maybe he could save a sum of money.

However, this was the client's own choice, so she couldn't say much more.

She simply took out two printed contracts from her briefcase and handed them to both of them.

Then she guided them to sign the contract.

After a while,

Lawyer Tang, seeing that both had signed all the contracts, slowly spoke.

"Alright, the contract has been signed. From now on, Mr. Chen is the boss of this company."

Liu Cheng's suspended heart finally settled down upon hearing this. He had been worried about unexpected issues during the signing, but he hadn't expected it to go so smoothly.

However, with the contract signed, only the transfer of funds remained.

"Mr. Chen, since the contract has been signed, I wonder when the money…"
