If you were to ask what is the fastest way to make money, do you think it is making money from consumers? Or doing business?

That's not fast.

The fast one is making money from “people who want to make money”.

For example, from 2012 to 2022, in ten years, the number of people applying for teacher qualification certificates has increased from about 100,000 to 2022 to 10 million!

Regardless of whether the teaching industry really needs so many people, people who are good at business and have business acumen have already thought of the most profitable business opportunities!

The purpose is to make money from this large group of people - selling tutoring, online courses, and materials...

Ten million test takers! If each person buys a set of tutoring books, and the minimum price of a set is fifty yuan, how many billions can they earn?

Even if I don't sell counseling books, but sell online courses, and consider each course cheap, a set of courses costs about ten yuan, and after a wave of harvest, I can make millions of dollars.

Let’s talk about WeChat business, which follows the same approach. How much money can one actually make from selling goods?

The only ones who can make steady profits are suppliers - manufacturers who earn money from WeChat merchants, and that's the big chunk of the profits.

So, what makes the most money?

Make money from “people who want to make money”!

With the advancement of reform and opening up, a large number of private traders will emerge in the future, and the rise of traders will inevitably bring countless supply demands.

If you enter the market at this budding stage, will you still worry about not making money?

If you want to know when it is easier to lose money running a factory, it would be during the years when the epidemic was rampant. But now is the 1980s when there is gold everywhere, which is definitely the best time to start a business!

Even if there is a loss, think about it, Xu Haizhou still has an old and dilapidated house, which will be worth at least millions when it is demolished. The loss now is at most six figures, so there is nothing to worry about.

"After the full moon banquet, let's go check out the factory."

"good."

The early autumn in Li'an is so hot that people can't sleep. The electric fan is spinning and the air it blows out is hot.

At this time, Qiao Lu was particularly eager to have an air conditioner to save her.

Because she had to get up tomorrow to prepare for the full-moon banquet, at nine o'clock, after feeding Qiaoqiao, Qiao Lu went to bed.

The temperature was still high tonight. I had a thin blanket covering my stomach and a small stove lying next to me. I was woken up by the heat from the small stove in my arms in the middle of my sleep.

Qiao Lu, who had not slept much to begin with, woke up slowly. She thought to herself that it shouldn't be that hot if she was using the electric fan.

When she lowered her head, she found a little baby pig nuzzling her chest.

He hummed and hummed until his nose touched Qiao Lu's chest. He sniffed hard and smelled the familiar "food" scent. He probably felt that the smell was finally right, and then he fell into a deep sleep.

Qiao Lu laughed and gently played with her hair with her fingertips. She was so cute.

"You, you came at any other time, but in August, the hottest month of the year. I am so hot that I am dying of heat."

Next door, Xu Haizhou was reading a book called "State and Market" with the desk light on. Qiao Lu didn't understand it and wasn't interested in it, but she supported and encouraged him to read it.

Learning never ends, right?

Xu Haizhou's heart melted when he saw the interaction between the mother and daughter. He closed the book, leaned over, put his arms around her waist from behind, and stroked her face.

"Why aren't you asleep yet? Go to bed quickly. I'll take the kids to next door after you finish sleeping."

"Well, don't be impatient, look at our Qiaoqiao again. She is so cute. Look at her little mouth and nose, so delicate, I can't get enough of her." The pink face, rosy lips, smooth eyebrows, beautiful double eyelids, and fine fluff around the face, so cute!

Qiao Lu feels that no one else’s baby is as cute and exquisite as theirs before they are even one month old!

"The eyes are like mine, the nose is like yours, and the mouth... doesn't look like anyone else, maybe it's a combination. The ears are like mine, two small ones. The eyebrows are exactly the same as yours, very thick. When she grows up, she will be a dark-skinned beauty."

Pursing his lips and letting out a low laugh, Xu Haizhou looked at the places his wife pointed to one by one. This delicate little baby was so pretty that he could never look at him enough.

While looking at his daughter, he stroked his wife's neck and massaged her again and again.

"She's only well-behaved when she's sleeping. See if you still think she's cute when she cries." This child is difficult to raise. Xu Haizhou looked at the dark circles under his eyes in the mirror... Alas, it's all tears if I say too much.

Qiao Lu turned around and gave him a light kick, then proudly gave him a back of the head: "I gave birth to my own child, so I still think he's cute even if he bites my toes."

Xu Haizhou: “…”

It doesn’t have to be that way… eh.

…

The full-moon banquet went very smoothly, and the little Qiaoqiao became the new darling of the group.

The little pet is sleeping peacefully in her cradle, but she doesn’t know that when she wakes up, her old father and mother have already found a lot of godfathers and godmothers for her...

The next day, after sending Qiao An to primary school, the couple rushed to the Red Star Garment Factory to understand the situation first and then consider whether to take the contract.

The Red Star Garment Factory is a medium-sized garment factory, covering an area of ​​about 11 mu, which is equivalent to the size of a standard 800-meter playground, or slightly smaller by a quarter.

It is located in the largest residential area in the south of the city, surrounded by several large factories such as the Li'an City Steel Rolling Mill, Textile Factory, and Radio Factory... It is only two kilometers away from the city center, so the location can be said to be very good.

There is a wide three-lane road outside the factory. If the government were to build a city circle around the city center, there is a 90% chance that this land would be demolished by the government.

Oh, Qiao Lu suddenly thought that old factories like this one located near the city center would definitely be demolished in a dozen or twenty years.

If you really take the contract, even if you make a loss in business, you can get a considerable amount of compensation just for the demolition. You may even be able to make a fortune from the compensation!

The more I looked, the more satisfied I became. After looking at the location on the ground, I walked closer to the inside of the factory and entered the gate. The security booth at the door was deserted, there was no furniture inside, and messy documents and papers were scattered all over the floor, as well as a lot of messy garbage. It was really unbearable to look at.

The entire factory consists of three buildings, two of which are work buildings containing offices, and one is a cafeteria, canteen and other living areas.

Because the factory closed down, all the employees fled and the factory was in chaos.

Since the boss couldn't pay the wages, they used fabrics as payment. All the tables and chairs in the office were cleared out.

In the production workshop, in addition to the large machines that could not be moved, many equipment were also cleared out and taken away by the workers to pay their wages.

Baby Qiaoqiao seldom leaves Nanhu home after turning one month old. Looking at the unfamiliar environment, she pokes around curiously in her cradle, blinking her big eyes. From time to time, she raises her tender little hands and waves them. Her nails are powdered and moist, and you really want to take a bite of them.

A small butterfly flew in front of the doll, and the little guy kicked his feet happily and blew bubbles in excitement.

After vomiting, he felt tired and nestled in his mother's arms. He yawned and fell asleep again.

Carefree and joyful.

After touring the factory, I only saw a few odd jobs cleaning up the garbage, but no one in charge.

After Xu Haizhou asked a few questions, he found out that all the leaders had run away. They said that if the couple wanted to take the contract, they should go to the Ministry of Commerce to find Director Song.

"Okay, thank you."

Finally, he asked about the factory's past conditions, the number of employees, and other issues, and left with satisfaction.

There are about 110 employees in the Red Star Garment Factory. They follow the succession system before the reform: when the father fails, the son takes over, and when the son fails, the grandson takes over. There are endless descendants, and no matter how capable you are, as long as you are your descendant, you can get in.

How many of them are just slacking off, taking the salary without doing any work, and just waiting to die?

All these factors came together to finally become the final straw that crushed the Red Star Garment Factory.

Contracting a factory is not something that can be done easily. First of all, they are faced with difficulties due to the funding, and secondly, they are not clear about the specific contracting system.

Since we couldn't come to a conclusion after the discussion, we took advantage of today's working day to go to the Ministry of Commerce to find Director Song and ask about the situation.

After I went there, I asked Director Song and found out.

It turns out that the Red Star Garment Factory is now completely bankrupt. If they want to contract it out, they can directly apply to rent a site and open their own clothing factory based on the original one.

Buildings such as factories and canteens are all ready-made houses, which saves them money!

In other words, you pay for it yourself, become a shareholder, rent the venue to you, and you bear all the risks.

"Okay, that's fine. In that case, the factory will belong to us completely, and we can also find investors and form a partnership. This will solve some of our funding problems."

Okay, we have found a solution to the funding problem, but who can we find to invest?

It was the first time to open a factory with no experience, and the hardships were obvious. How many people were willing to cooperate with Xu Haizhou, who had no experience, and could share the risks with them as a person in charge?

After saying goodbye to Director Song, the couple rushed to Baiyun Street and told Li Hongjun about their idea of ​​opening a clothing factory.

"What? Setting up a factory? So suddenly?"

"Well, I discussed it with Haizhou and we have to build this factory. Now I am wondering if anyone is willing to cooperate with us and establish a shareholder system. This way, the financial pressure on both of us will be less."

"Shareholder?" Yu Fan was the first to raise his hand: "I want it. Let me do it. Let's do it together with you guys."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at her with wide eyes.

"Yu Fan! You are really brave. You only make a few dollars a day and you want to invest in Xu Haizhou's factory."

He touched her forehead in disbelief and wondered, "She doesn't have a fever. Did she secretly drink at lunch and get drunk?"

"Go to hell!" Yu Fan slapped Li Hongjun's hand away speechlessly, and stroked his hair which was messed up by him: "Last year, I made a small fortune following you guys. Now I have at least 5,000 or 6,000 in savings. Why, 5,000 or 6,000 is not enough to invest?"

"Oh, do you know what investing means?" Li Hongjun teased her with a smile.

"Get lost, I don't understand? I don't understand what I'm saying here." She glared at him unhappily, "If you think the money is too little, I can also go and borrow some."

"Borrow? I don't mean a small sum of one or two hundred. Who can lend it to you?" Li Hongjun sneered.

Yu Fan's life was simple. She usually went from place to place. Sometimes she would take the train to the next city to visit her boyfriend. She didn't hang out with any important people the rest of the time. Her richest friends were probably Xu Haizhou and his wife.

"You forgot, I have a friend in Hong Kong. We have a good relationship. He will definitely lend it to me."

"By the way, speaking of your friend in Hong Kong, what does he do? How do you know him? Male or female?" He sounds like he is very rich and capable.

"It's OK if we know each other. He's my friend anyway and can lend me money..." Yu Fan hesitated for a long time and finally said angrily, "Let's not talk about him for now. I'll introduce him to you in two days."

Then he held his chin and looked at Xu Haizhou and his wife: "If I want to invest, how much do you think is a good amount?"
