Li Xu traveled to the year 1960. In this era, which he had never seen before and only heard about in books and from elders, the only thing he could do was ensure his family had enough to eat and li...
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Old Xiao, have you two been having a quarrel recently?"
"He's the one who's quarreling with me. Ever since Cuifen and I got engaged, I've been calling him brother every time I see him, but he's been completely indifferent to me, like I owe him something. He's only been a little nicer in the last two days."
Li Xu understood immediately that it was still the fault of Hu Yang and his wife, so he persuaded them, "Didn't Cui Fen tell you everything last night? Hu Yi Tong wasn't mad at you, he was mad at himself. It has nothing to do with you. Besides, he's your future brother-in-law, so it's not right for you to do this. Besides, if you want to see him in such a miserable state, you can do it anytime. You don't have to go there now."
Xiao Jianping pondered for a while and felt that what he said made sense. Then he said, "Okay, I won't go. There will be plenty of opportunities to see him on the way anyway."
After finishing his talk, Li Xu gave him a few more instructions and then went to talk to Liu Gang about work.
However, he didn't expect that the moment he saw him, Liu Gang would smile and tease him, "I heard that Hu Yitong did something incredible yesterday, which brought a lot of glory to you as his master. How do you plan to reward him?"
Li Xu was somewhat speechless. "Uncle Liu, let's not talk about whether I accepted him as my apprentice or not. Even if I did, wouldn't he have to call you Master according to seniority? I'm embarrassed, but you are proud of it?"
"Whatever happens to the apprentice is the master's responsibility. What does it have to do with the master?"
Li Xu was too lazy to argue with him and went straight to the point. "Stop making sarcastic remarks. I have something to talk to you about."
Hearing this, Liu Gang put on a serious look and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
"My neighbor wants to buy a temporary job. Can you please ask Uncle Liu if he still has quotas? If he does, and he's willing to sell, please let me know."
"That's it?"
"That's it."
After receiving the confirmation, Liu Gang's expression instantly collapsed. He said unhappily, "I thought it was a big deal, but after all this time it's just a small matter. It's a position at the plastics factory, fixed price 450. If your neighbor is interested, come to my house tomorrow afternoon to get a letter of introduction."
Li Xu looked at him for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Can you make decisions for Uncle Liu?"
"Even though he can't do anything else, this is still no problem. He's eager for someone to come and buy the quota from him."
Li Xu was a little puzzled, "Is this thing still hard to sell?"
Four hundred and fifty yuan is indeed not a low salary, which is basically equivalent to a temporary worker working for nothing for the first two years.
But the problem is that everyone with a discerning eye knows that unless there are no unexpected events, the factory will basically not lay off employees in the future. In other words, temporary workers will not have to worry about being laid off for at least a few years.
This means that even if you work for two years for nothing, you can still make some money, so people are flocking to it.
"Don't even mention him. Old Wu and the others are worried. They have high-ranking positions, so ordinary people can't find anyone who can match them. And the people they know look down on temporary workers. As a result, their targets are basically falling short."
Li Xu understood what was said, so he said with a smile, "If they are willing to lower their standards, I dare say that these indicators will be snatched up in no time."
To put it bluntly, people who need to buy think that Li Wen and others are too high-ranking and dare not approach them; and they are unwilling to publicize it for the sake of face, which has led to the fact that the indicators in their hands have not been sold yet.
"Who says it's not? To be honest, I've tried to persuade your Uncle Liu several times, but he refused. He even said he'd rather lose money than lose face."
Li Xu smacked his lips and said, "Uncle Liu is a bit rigid in this regard. He is not afraid of making money, so what's there to be ashamed of?"
At this moment, he suddenly thought of a question and asked quickly, "By the way, Uncle Liu, why don't you promote Uncle Liu?"
"He wants face, but I don't?" Liu Gang curled his lips. "These indicators are not mine. If I promote them for him, people might think I'm a broker. How embarrassing! Besides, he doesn't share his profits with me, so I don't want to waste my energy."
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes lit up instantly. "Yeah, if he doesn't take me for a share, then he should take you for a share, right? Nephew, how about we discuss it and join forces to do this?"
Li Xu understood what he meant without giving it much thought. "You don't mean to ask me to help them sell the indicators in my name, and then they'll give me a share of the money, and we can split the money between us, right?"
Liu Gang nodded repeatedly, his face full of excitement. "Yes, that's what I mean. What do you think?"
"I don't think it's a good idea. It's not worth the trouble for these two dollars."
The indicators are theirs, and the market is ready-made. So, how much can they give themselves?
Moreover, the money is divided between two people, so it is very likely that each person will only get a few dollars.
Li Xu felt that if he had the time, it would be faster to go to the black market and sell two kilograms of rice.
"For every indicator sold, we'll each get 100, how about that?"
"Uncle Liu, are you serious about what you said?" Li Xu looked confused, thinking, what's the difference between this and robbery?
"Of course I'm serious. One indicator is 450 yuan, and we split 200 yuan. It's not too much, right?" Liu Gang smiled.
Li Xu thought about it for a moment and said decisively, "It wouldn't be too much if you can negotiate with them."
I have to say, he was indeed moved.
You have to know that there are seven leaders who are familiar with him. Even if each of them has only three indicators, there are twenty-one in total. Based on the profit of one hundred yuan per quota, he can get at least two thousand one hundred yuan.
As long as we can negotiate it, whoever refuses will be a grandson.
To put it bluntly, with this amount of money, even if Cui's family said behind his back that he was greedy for money, he didn't think it was intolerable...
