Chapter 111: Respectful Attitude

Half an hour later, several scavengers came to see what was going on. They

said a little awkwardly at the door: "Can we come in and take a look?" To put it nicely, they are scavengers. To put it bluntly, they are garbage collectors. Many people will walk away when they meet them on the road. If there is no other way, why would they do this?

Lin Yan smiled and nodded and said: "Of course, this waste recycling station is meant to deal with you."

The leader of the scavengers said: "You have cleaned up here very cleanly." They felt a little ashamed of themselves.

Lin Yan said: "Several of us have also been sent to the countryside as educated youth, and we have also done jobs like carrying manure in the countryside. We are all doing this to make a living, it's not shabby! Please come in--" She raised her hand and made an invitation.

In order to attract these scavengers to actively send the broken copper, iron, waste paper, and broken glass they picked up, in addition to the two cents per catty increase compared to the collection station, it is also very important to make them feel that they are not discriminated against.

It would be best if the word could spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, so that scavengers from far away could also come.

"Okay, okay."

Several people followed Lin Yan in and looked around. They couldn't help but waved the flyers in their hands and asked, "Is this the price on the opening day, the 8th, or will it always be this price?"

Lin Yan said, "It's not the price on the 8th. But it's not always this price. It has to be adjusted according to the purchase price of the next buyer. As long as the price of the next buyer doesn't adjust, we will buy it at this price first. If they raise the price, we will follow. If they lower the price, of course we have to follow the price. Don't you think this is the truth?"

She was a teacher and had also held parent-teacher conferences for parents. When talking to a group of people, no matter who the other party is, she will never be stage-frightened. She always behaves calmly.

The other party thought about it and realized that this is the truth.

"Then we will come again on the 8th." Several scavengers turned around and wanted to leave.

They planned to store the goods for the next two days and bring them all together on the 8th. A little more than two cents per pound is also money.

Lin Yan said, "Wait a minute."

The scavengers turned around in confusion and saw Lin Yan taking out an unopened package of multi-layer gauze masks.

"Your working environment is very bad, and your lungs are prone to problems. Wear a mask when you work, it's a bit of protection."

She took the mask apart and handed one to each person. This can be used repeatedly. If it gets dirty, just wash it and dry it.

In fact, the scavengers also know that they should wear this, but doesn't it cost money? Everyone's situation is not good, so they save as much as possible.

"How can I take this from you for free?"

Lin Yan said, "Aren't you here to take care of my business? Aren't you?"

"Yes." Several scavengers laughed.

"Then take it. This is not free."

Several waves of people like this came, and finally left happily.

Geng Shan and Liu Qingfeng, who were moving furniture inside, could not help but whisper, "Why is Teacher Lin so nice to these garbage collectors?"

Lin Yan passed by and heard it, and said, "We can only make money if they keep delivering goods. Where is Zhu Dahai?"

She didn't play the high-sounding words like "there is no high or low in work, it's all different divisions of labor in the revolution", but said something more practical.

The two looked at each other and said, "I went to the toilet."

As for moving things, two people are basically enough. But this guy took a long time to go to the bathroom. Lin Yan didn't see him when she came in before.

Moreover, Geng Shan and Liu Qingfeng were actually a little dissatisfied. Teacher Lin is the de facto boss lady, and she is a woman. It is natural for her not to move things by herself.

What right do you, Zhu Dahai, have to give orders? Why don't you move them yourself? Some furniture can be carried by one person. Isn't it just that he started working with Teacher Fang earlier than the two of them? Teacher Fang didn't say that he was a small leader.

Lin Yan's face sank slightly and said, "I know."

This Zhu Dahai needs to be talked to. After she finished speaking, she began to bring some lighter things in.

Liu Qingfeng said, "Teacher Lin, do we have to be polite to these scavengers?"

"Yes. Lao Cui's restaurant is doing very well, better than state-owned restaurants. Isn't it because you are respected when you eat there? He also charges money and food coupons. But people are more willing to go there. None of us are cheap. Under the same conditions, we definitely hope to be respected."

If you don't have food coupons when you go to Lao Cui's restaurant for dinner, you can just pay directly. He charges food coupons because food coupons are still a general equivalent that can be circulated on the black market. It depends on whether the diners are convenient to pay or give tickets. Fang Mingche used to pay money.

Now that Lin Yan and Yanyan have commercial grain supplies, their family also has food coupons from the capital.

But try to use money to buy things, after all, Fang Mingche has no supply yet. Among the two people who have supplies, there is also a child, and the tickets are not enough.

As for after school starts, the family of three should mostly eat at school.

In the Yuhong class that Grandpa Gu found nearby, many children's parents are both working and provide meals.

"I understand." Geng Shan and Liu Qingfeng nodded. As the saying goes, "leaders lead by example, so just follow suit."

Zhu Dahai came over and saw that Lin Yan was working, so he hurried over to help. He was still a little embarrassed. Isn't Teacher Lin outside? Why did he come in to move things?

Lin Yan didn't say anything to him in front of the two people. She raised her hand and looked at her wrist, "You guys move it, I'll go find Secretary Qu. If there are more scavengers coming to see the situation later, you should be polite to them. Give them a new mask for the first time. The more people they come to deliver goods, the better our business will be. If no one is willing to come, our investment will be wasted, and you will lose your job."

The three people thought about the consequences and nodded quickly, "Okay."

Lin Yan went to Secretary Qu to ask if he had found the cook she asked him to find.

She would go back to school, and it would definitely be impossible for her to cook here for a long time. So she asked the secretary to introduce someone who was quick and tidy and cooked hygienically.

Two meals a day for the three staff members of the scrap station. If the scavengers are willing, they can also eat here. If more people eat, more food will be bought, which will spread the cost. Then you can eat a lot of food at a very cheap price.

In this way, the workload will be not small. The income will also be adjusted accordingly.

Not long after Lin Yan walked out, she met Secretary Qu who brought three people to her. They all looked like young wives in the village.

Lin Yan noticed the nails, hair, etc. of these three people, and then said, "Secretary, we don't need three people."

Secretary Qu said, "The three of them are very active, and I don't know how to choose."

Old Xia was tricked into making 18 yuan a month. When the young wives heard that the wages here were generous and the cooking was delicious, they were all tempted.

It's not the village's business, and he was too lazy to offend anyone. After thinking about it, he just brought them all here. You can choose for yourself!
