To thank Zhao Zhenzhu, Xu Haibo specifically asked her if she needed to stock up on electrical appliances to sell alongside her Walkmans. He could talk to the factory managers about it.
Zhao Zhenzhu definitely wants it!
Like the Walkman, Zhao Zhenzhu also stocked up on a lot of other electrical appliances in her space.
The factory managers needed Xu Haibo's patents, and as soon as Xu Haibo mentioned it, they all agreed.
Xu Haibo also secured the lowest ex-factory price for Zhao Zhenzhu, as well as the right to priority supply.
Zhao Zhenzhu plans to go to Guangzhou after the New Year to get a batch of goods and take the opportunity to sell off the appliances in her spatial storage.
Of course, when Zhao Zhenzhu spoke to Zhou Bingchen, she did not mention the space. She only said that the profit margin of electrical appliances was high, and she would go to Guangzhou to purchase goods after the New Year.
“Pearl, I’m starting school on the fifteenth of the first lunar month. After the New Year, the factories in Guangzhou shouldn’t start work until around the fifteenth, right?” Zhou Bingchen asked.
"Yes, I plan to set off after the Lantern Festival," Zhao Zhenzhu said.
“But I start school around the age of fifteen, there’s not enough time!” Zhou Bingchen frowned.
"What do you mean there's not enough time?" Zhao Zhenzhu didn't understand.
“Pearl, it takes about sixty hours by train from Beijing to Guangzhou! I’m worried about you going alone.” A hint of concern appeared on Zhou Bingchen’s face.
Trains in this era were a mixed bag, with swindlers and thieves thriving.
Zhao Zhenzhu is beautiful, and she will definitely need to bring money when she goes to buy goods. Zhou Bingchen is worried that it is not safe for Zhao Zhenzhu to go to Guangzhou alone.
"Bingchen, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself," Zhao Zhenzhu said hastily, afraid that Zhou Bingchen would stop her.
“Or, why don’t you bring Qian Rukun along? He’s your partner. A grown man can’t just do nothing. You’re the one charging ahead while he sits back and reaps the rewards!” Zhou Bingchen suggested.
"I'll think about it," Zhao Zhenzhu said dismissively.
Zhao Zhenzhu hadn't considered bringing Qian Rukun into contact with the source of goods right now.
Only when the source of goods is in her own hands can Zhao Zhenzhu have the initiative.
Regardless of which partner she chooses, Zhao Zhenzhu will observe them for a period of time before entrusting them with important responsibilities.
After all, money can be very alluring.
There are not many people in this world who can resist temptation.
It's better to make your partner understand their position from the beginning, which will reduce the chance of betrayal later.
Seeing Zhao Zhenzhu's expression, Zhou Bingchen knew that she hadn't listened to him.
Zhou Bingchen knew that Zhao Zhenzhu had made up her mind, and no matter how much he objected, she would still do it.
After much thought, Zhou Bingchen decided to find Zhao Zhenzhu a bodyguard.
Zhou Bingchen had a retired comrade-in-arms named Wang Erhu, who was from Dong Province and had a family tradition of very skilled martial arts.
Zhou Bingchen had previously heard Wang Erhu say that everyone in his family had practiced martial arts since childhood.
Zhou Bingchen wanted to ask Wang Erhu if he was free, and if so, if so, if he could come to Beijing to be Zhao Zhenzhu's bodyguard.
Upon hearing Zhou Bingchen's words, Zhao Zhenzhu immediately became interested.
Zhao Zhenzhu will definitely have to travel around a lot in the early stages of doing business.
In this era, public security wasn't very good. Unlike later generations, there were cameras everywhere. The cost of doing bad things increased, so fewer people did it.
Although Zhao Zhenzhu has a spatial dimension, her safety is not a concern.
However, if Zhao Zhenzhu could hire a scion of a martial arts family as her bodyguard, her safety would undoubtedly be better guaranteed.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Zhenzhu's female bodyguard arrived.
That's right, it's a female bodyguard.
Wang Erhu works in a factory in their county town and was too busy to come, so his sister Wang Tiemei came instead.
Zhao Zhenzhu and Zhou Bingchen went to the station together to pick up the person.
Wang Tiemei is 22 years old this year. She is 1.7 meters tall, weighs 60 kilograms, has a slightly dark complexion, and has a very well-proportioned figure.
After Wang Tiemei got off the bus, she saw the sign Zhao Zhenzhu was holding and walked over to ask, "Excuse me, are you the sister-in-law of Company Commander Zhou?"
Zhao Zhenzhu didn't know what "Company Commander Zhou's sister-in-law" meant, so she couldn't help but look at Zhou Bingchen, who had just returned from the restroom.
“I know you. You’re Company Commander Zhou. I’ve seen photos of you and my brother.” Wang Tiemei recognized Zhou Bingchen and a bright smile appeared on her face.
Wang Tiemei has a pleasing baby face, with two small dimples when she smiles.
If Wang Erhu hadn't mentioned on the phone that Wang Tiemei was the best martial artist among the young people in their clan, Zhao Zhenzhu would never have believed that this sweet-smiling, seemingly harmless girl was actually a martial arts master.
“Pearl, Erhu was one of my soldiers when he was in the army. Before he retired, I was his company commander,” Zhou Bingchen explained in a low voice.
“Yes, yes, yes, my brother said that Company Commander Zhou is a great man. He told me to listen to Company Commander Zhou and his wife after I came to Beijing,” Wang Tiemei said excitedly.
"Hello Tie Mei, I'm Zhao Zhenzhu. Welcome to Beijing." Zhao Zhenzhu extended her hand.
Wang Tiemei rubbed her hands against herself before extending her hand to shake hands with Zhao Zhenzhu, saying, "Sister-in-law, you are so kind to me, not looking down on me for coming from the countryside. This is my first time working away from home, and I don't know much about things. Please feel free to criticize me if I do anything wrong in the future."
“I’m also from the countryside, thank you for coming to help me. If you encounter anything you don’t understand in the future, just ask me, I promise to answer everything I know,” Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.
"Yes, sister-in-law." Wang Tiemei responded, nodding heavily, her eyes crinkling with a smile.
Wang Tiemei was a little apprehensive as she left her hometown for the first time.
Although Wang Erhu had said several times at home that Zhou Bingchen was a trustworthy person.
Wang Tiemei was still a little worried, fearing that Zhao Zhenzhu would be difficult to get along with.
Seeing how approachable Zhao Zhenzhu was, Wang Tiemei finally felt relieved.
Zhao Zhenzhu did not take Wang Tiemei back to the Zhou family, but instead took her to a courtyard house she had just bought.
This is a three-courtyard house. Before the Lunar New Year, Zhao Zhenzhu had it slightly renovated, intending to use it as staff dormitory.
When Zhao Zhenzhu was in Beijing, she didn't need to have bodyguards with her; she only needed them when she went on long trips.
Zhou Jin's house could actually accommodate one more person, but Zhao Zhenzhu would definitely tell Zhou Jin about Wang Tiemei's background.
Zhao Zhenzhu disliked having to make everything she did public.
Zhao Zhenzhu wasn't afraid of Zhou Jin nagging, but rather wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Zhou Ruonan is stingy. If she knew that Zhao Zhenzhu hired Wang Tiemei as a bodyguard and offered her a monthly salary of one hundred yuan, Zhou Ruonan would definitely conjure up a whole drama in her mind, assuming that the money came from Zhou Jin.
They might even come to the Zhou family and cause a scene, fearing that Zhou Jin's entire fortune has been "swindled" away by Zhao Zhenzhu and her husband.
When Wang Tiemei arrived at the courtyard house, she was somewhat surprised to see the newly renovated house.
Didn't my second brother say that housing is very tight in Beijing?
Wang Tiemei was prepared for several people to share a room. Unexpectedly, Zhao Zhenzhu told her that she would have a room to herself.
