Wan Feng introduced the situation of Wahou Market in detail.
"If you have the guts, go to the Wahou Market alone. They have 360 trades and professions there, so there's bound to be one you'd like and one that suits you. Come back and rent a shop in a busy area and start a business. I guarantee that with your charlatanism and skills, you'll be a well-known merchant in Changchun City within ten years."
Chen Tianchui scratched his head: "Brother! I'm going alone? I'm scared."
This guy dared to rob four or five strong men with a match gun and a few custard balls, and now he actually told himself that he was afraid!
"Don't be afraid. Your father is going too. What are you two afraid of if you go together?"
Chen Dao had just heard Wan Feng introduce the Wahou Market, but he had no interest in business and felt that he was not cut out for it, and he had no plans to visit Wahou. But now he heard Wan Feng say that he wanted to go too.
"Hey, nephew Xiao Wan, I don't have any talent for business. Why should I follow you?"
"Uncle Chen, I'm going to tell you the truth. I'm planning to open a business in the machinery field in Jiangwei Brigade, where the Wahou Market is located. The site selection and design planning for the workshop are complete, and the construction company has been confirmed. Now we're just waiting for the spring when the ground dries up to begin construction. I expect it to be completed before the rainy season in July. After completion, once the equipment is moved into the workshop, we'll begin scientific research. I'm in urgent need of high-level technicians like you. When I came here, I put an advertisement on Beiliao TV station recruiting technicians above level five. The standard I'm offering is a monthly salary of 100 yuan for a level five technician, 150 yuan for a level six, 240 yuan for a level seven, and 500 yuan for a level eight."
"Level eight, five hundred yuan a month!" Chen Dao asked in disbelief.
Wan Feng nodded: "Yes, if it's beyond level eight, I'll offer a monthly salary of one thousand yuan."
Wan Feng had no hope for the super-level eight technicians. They were called super craftsmen, and few people in the country knew about them. They were all in the military, and they were almost nowhere to be seen in private enterprises.
For these super craftsmen, Wan Feng could only pin his hopes on going over to the Soviet Union when it collapsed.
Chen Dao slapped his head hard and said, "If I hadn't been so discouraged at the beginning, I would have passed the eighth level in that assessment. The only one in our factory who passed the eighth level was my apprentice."
The apprentices are all at level eight!
There is something in this wine barrel!
"Uncle Chen, you said your apprentice passed the eighth level?"
"In that assessment, only one person in Changchun City passed the eighth level. He was my apprentice. I didn't take the exam. If I had, I would have reached the eighth level as well."
"Uncle Chen, after the New Year, when you and your son take the train to Wa, I'll write you a letter and tell you who to look for when you get there. If you're really at the eighth level, I'll give you a monthly salary of 500. In two years, I'll take you to the Soviet Union. Maybe you can find a Soviet girl to marry. There are more women than men in the Soviet Union, and countless young girls can't find men."
Li Mingdou was depressed on the spot. After this guy fooled him, he went to fool Chen Dao.
Chen Dao had no idea about Russian girls, but he was interested in Russia: "Take me to Russia? What's the point if I don't speak Russian?"
"Of course it's useful. Very useful. You'll know when the time comes. Boss, can you lend me a pen and paper?"
The hotel owner brought paper and pen, and Wan Feng quickly wrote a letter of introduction.
"If you go to Wahou, go to the Wahou Machinery Factory and find a man named Luo Zhongxing. He'll check your skills. If your skills are as good as you say, then go find a man named Yan Ling. He'll help you with your salary and benefits. The factory has dormitories where you can stay."
Chen Dao carefully put away the letter of introduction written by Wan Feng.
Chen Dao didn't drink ten bottles of liquor after all. The exact number was six and a half bottles.
The meal cost Wan Feng more than 30 yuan, and the leftover wine was taken home by Chen Dao.
Wan Feng and his men stayed in Changchun for another four days, and withdrew their troops on February 9th.
The pot of Anshan orchid was finally sold for 17,000 yuan.
Chen Tianchui has been very motivated these days and has helped Wan Feng sell a lot more goods.
The checkout time is on the afternoon of the 9th.
In the house rented by Wan Feng, Wan Feng began to announce the results of his battles during this period.
They engaged in speculation and profiteering here for a total of fourteen days. Counting every transaction from the first day, they made a total profit of 496,000 yuan.
If it weren't for Chen Tianchui, they would have earned a maximum of 450,000 yuan. This guy helped them cheat out an extra 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in just five or six days.
"Brother Yang, you three arrived four days late. In the first four days, we made a total profit of 115,000 yuan. As brothers, let's be clear about the accounts. You three won't get any of this money. The remaining money we will share equally is 381,000 yuan. I'll also deduct 5,000 yuan from this. This is for Chen Tianchui's hard-earned money. Is everyone okay with that?"
Everyone expressed no objection.
"Then let's divide the money now. Each of us will get fifty-three thousand seven hundred dollars. I won't count the fourteen dollars."
Wan Feng distributed the money to Yang Jianguo and the other two.
"Brother Yang, we're going back to Longjiang tomorrow. You guys can start a small business at home for the time being. I don't know what kind of business you're going to do, but during the New Year, go to the Beiliaowa Houda Market with Chen Dao and the others. I'll come find you in two years, and we'll go to the Soviet Union to try our luck."
After a pause and some thought, he continued, "If you still want to trade Clivia in Changchun, you can come and play around a bit, but you must remember one thing: by the end of April, no matter what the price of Clivia in the market is, you must leave. Remember? You must leave! Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
“Remember!”
Yang Jianguo and his two friends said goodbye to Wan Feng and went home to prepare for the New Year.
Li Yong's money was still distributed after he returned. Because they had an extra 28,000 yuan each from the previous four days, each of the four of them received more than 82,000 yuan.
From the perspective of Yang Jianguo, Li Yong and others, the income from just half a month is more than the income from taking care of the flower seedlings here for a year.
After seeing off Yang Jianguo and the other two, Wan Feng took them away from the rented house. Li Mingdou pushed the tricycle and they all came to Chen Tianchui's house.
Wan Feng told Chen Tianchui to wait for him at home, and Chen Tianchui and his son indeed stayed at home obediently.
"We're going back to Longjiang tomorrow. This 8,000 yuan is your reward for helping us sell flowers."
Wan Feng threw eight bundles of brand new banknotes onto the kang.
There were 5,000 yuan deducted from the collective, and Wan Feng took out another 3,000 yuan from the money shared by the four of them.
Chen Dao and his son were stunned. Eight thousand yuan.
Chen Tianchui thought that it would be good if Wan Feng could give him 1,800 yuan these days, but he never expected that it would be as much as 8,000 yuan.
"Brother Wan, isn't this too much?"
"This is what you earned through hard work, but don't spend it recklessly. You need capital to run a business, rent a shop, and purchase goods. This money can be used as start-up capital."
Chen Tianchui handed the money to Chen Dao and suddenly asked a question: "Brother Wan, do you think I can go and trade Clivia myself?"
This guy also wants to deal in Clivia?
