When leaving the bun shop, Shen Qiang remained silent as he sat in the car. In fact, Shen Qiang understood that the reason why the charming lady Gao Hui said that if Shen Qiang still wanted to be with her after achieving success and fame, she would leave with him, was not only because she lacked confidence in herself.

More importantly, she hoped to use this to encourage Shen Qiang.

Because she is a woman, she can choose a modest life, she can choose to guard the bun shop and accompany the child as he grows up.

But Shen Qiang cannot.

Shen Qiang must become stronger because Shen Qiang can no longer afford to lose.

If before, when Shen Qiang was a nobody, losing didn't matter, at worst, he could hide alone, have a couple of drinks, sleep it off and wake up to another sunny day.

But not anymore.

Now, if Shen Qiang stays stagnant and doesn't become stronger, not only will he be unable to lift his head, more importantly, all the women would also lose their backbone.

Because now, Shen Qiang is the pillar of the Shen family. If Shen Qiang can't hold everything up, no one around him can succeed.

"I just want to relax for a moment and think of nothing, just enjoy life quietly with them."

Shen Qiang thought to himself.

Just then, Ke Bizhu's phone rang, and a moment later, she said, "The Chief Financial Officer from Tianyou Medicine called, wanting to seek your opinion."

Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Just say what it's about."

"There are two production lines at Tianyou Pharmaceutical Factory that keep having problems. The factory plans to replace them, but the budget is a bit high."

Shen Qiang didn't even think about it and said, "A workman must first sharpen his tools if he is to do his job well. You cannot skimp on necessary expenses. If the machines don't work, no medicine can be produced, which means everything is zero. Let them replace them."

"They plan to replace them with the best. One production line costs 350 million, and after the investment, the current number of production line workers can be reduced from 75 to fifteen, which not only greatly reduces expenses but also increases production capacity. From a long-term perspective, it's more cost-effective."

Shen Qiang frowned, one production line costing 350 million, that's equivalent to two of his Jiazi Pills.

"Change them, if they keep malfunctioning, there's no production capacity, and making money would be impossible. After all, raw materials can't be turned into money." Shen Qiang still didn't think much of it.

At this moment, Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu smiled and said, "The Chief Financial Officer thinks it's a very bad investment because replacing the production line involves many issues, such as needing to rebuild the factory and overhaul the power equipment."

"Moreover, most of the production lines in the pharmaceutical factory were introduced at the same time, and under high-intensity nonstop production, problems with two production lines might just be the beginning, and he thinks the factory's production lines should not be replaced if possible."

"Because not only does it involve production capacity issues, but also the employees' livelihood. Once the production line is upgraded, four-fifths of the people in the workshop would immediately become unemployed, plus the modifications to the factory to accommodate the new production line would be a significant loss."

Shen Qiang laughed: "Oh, does he mean that if others produce ten thousand bottles of medicine a day, we only need five hundred bottles? What a joke, there are problems every day, and I pay him to solve troubles for me. If he pretends to be blind, what do I need him for?"

Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu heard this and laughed: "He is not pretending to be blind; he gave you another suggestion. Due to the large expense and long time of the factory renovation, he suggests finding a new site without affecting the current production and building a new factory with brand new, cutting-edge production lines."

"This way, although the investment in the short term seems greater than renovating the existing factory, once a new factory with unified equipment and perfected design is built, it can be put into operation immediately. By then, the existing factory can provide enough manpower."

"At that time, there won't be a need to consider the issue of massive unemployment among employees. Once the new factory puts into production, whether the old factory is renovated or continues operating with existing equipment, both offense and defense can be taken."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed and then said, "Is this the suggestion from the Chief Financial Officer?"

"Yes," Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu said, "He doesn't care about the workshop, only about money, so his relationship with the people in the workshop is a bit strained. Over there, they feel that low production output is due to the production line issues, but he doesn't approve."

"So he made this call to me, hoping I would mention this to you to see what you think."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed: "What else is there to consider, the Thermophilic Oral Liquid is in short supply now, stopping the production line to upgrade is impossible, let's set up a new factory, Bianyi, that bastard, has been eyeing the pharmaceutical factory, I said to let him invest in my hometown, and he firmly insisted that the pharmaceutical factory should be there."

"But if it's a factory built by Heshenghe, then it's Heshenghe's, and he gets two percent of it, that's why I haven't agreed with him all along. Now, since there are frequent problems with the old factory, let's simply build a new one in my hometown."

"Using the group's name?" Ke Bizhu asked in surprise.

Shen Qiang laughed: "No, Tianyou Medicine, completely owned by me."

Ke Bizhu frowned and said, "Is it appropriate to do so?"

Shen Qiang laughed: "There's nothing inappropriate. My pharmaceutical factory never counted on making a lot of money. Affordable and efficient medicines that truly solve the people's problems are the reason for Tianyou's existence, so when you're free, contact someone. Let Chu Qing pull Bianyi's rogue law firm and talk to the county investment office nicely."

Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu hesitated for a moment, then stopped the car on the roadside, saying: "Previously, the group company discussed related issues during the meeting, and there was a plan as well as an investment budget, wait a minute."

While saying this, the Fire Lotus Demon took out a laptop and quickly found a proposal.

Shen Qiang took it and glanced through it briefly, and found that it was very professionally written and had an ideal design. In terms of expectations, it was certainly based on the world's most advanced equipment, as well as international first-class factory production capacity planning.

But upon seeing the financial budget, even Shen Qiang frowned tightly.

Because accomplishing this idea would require 20 billion yuan.

This almost equals half the market value of the entire Heshenghe.

So even if Bianyi really wanted to make it happen, it's not very likely given the current status of the group, because the investment is too large.

Subsequently, Shen Qiang checked Tianyou Medicine's existing liquidity and found it to be only 130 million.

He quietly logged into his bank card account, and since he doesn't usually pay much attention to funds and spends without bargaining whenever he wants, Shen Qiang wasn't sure how much money he had.

4.94 billion.

This made Shen Qiang frown, because it meant if he truly wanted to build a new factory, at least a 15 billion shortfall would be faced.
