Chapter 366: Common People Service Center
The vigorous housing allocation activity in the capital had nothing to do with her, so Lin Yuzhu had a rare moment of free time.
Director Liu said that houses in Beijing are no longer so scarce and there is no need to build more in the short term, so she probably won't be too busy in the next few years.
Lin Yuzhu was not surprised. She just didn't want to be busy all the time. She wanted to spend more time with her children while they were still young.
Uncle Gu started to get busy again. As more and more workers were assigned to houses, more and more people came to him for renovation. According to Gu Weidong, his renovation team had expanded several times and was divided into several groups working simultaneously.
Gu Weidong, on the other hand, has been doing good business since the New Year. After discussing with Lin Yuzhu, he decided not to share any of the profits and continued to expand his purchases.
But the store was so small that it was inconvenient to come more than once to some faraway places, and even delivery was inconvenient, so he discussed with Lin Yuzhu about opening another branch.
Lin Yuzhu also agreed with this. After all, Beijing has such a large population, how could one store possibly satisfy everyone?
There is no doubt that electrical appliance stores make money. Everyone can see the flow of people. Sooner or later, someone will follow suit. It is better to distribute the goods yourself before that.
If it were not for the lack of money and people, Lin Yuzhu would even think of opening branches in other cities.
Apparently Gu Weidong had the same idea, so he discussed with Lin Yuzhu not to distribute the next dividends for the time being, and to quickly seize the market before others reacted, or before they found the source of goods.
Lin Yuzhu also agreed, but he and Zhao Yanshu were unable to help, so he had to rely on himself.
Gu Weidong was also happy to accept it, after all, this was something they had already agreed on long ago.
Just when Gu Weidong was thinking about opening a branch.
Lin Yuzhu suddenly received a request for a meeting from Director Liu.
Only a few leaders of the unit attended the meeting.
After everyone arrived, Director Liu spoke seriously, "Did you know that someone recently opened a private public service agency?"
Lin Yuzhu was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't really know much about this, but what does this People's Service Center do?
Seeing that everyone was a little confused, Director Liu explained: "The Common People Service Center, as the name suggests, serves the common people. Its services include job introductions, asking people to do things for you, house rentals, house sales, etc."
Sister Wang was surprised to hear this. "Is this privately owned? But what's the point of opening a store like this? Do you just want to serve the people?"
Director Liu shook his head and said, "Although it is private, it is not free. I will charge a little money every time I help you."
After hearing this, Lin Yuzhu realized that this common people's service agency was just an intermediary in the future. So it existed at this time?
"Huh?" Sister Wang was a little surprised. "Will ordinary people ask them for help? For example, if they want to rent or buy a house, why don't they come to our Housing Authority? We serve the people for free."
Director Liu said with an unpleasant expression, "You are right to think so, but I heard that they not only have people coming to them, but on the contrary they have a lot of business. Some people would rather go to them than come to the Housing Authority. Do you know why?"
Lin Yuzhu listened thoughtfully. Although she didn't know why, ordinary people in later generations all went to real estate agents to rent or buy houses. The Housing Authority no longer had this business. She didn't know when it was changed, but since it was changed, it was the trend.
So she didn't understand why Director Liu was so angry. They were a government agency and although they also served the people, there would be more and more houses in the future and they would definitely be too busy to handle it. Wouldn't it be nice to have some private help to share some of the burden?
