Chapter 130 Chapter 130 Starting a business?
When Zhao Ruyue and Tian Qing entered the community, they passed by a place with benches for owners to rest and walk their children, and it was quite close to Lao Qian.
However, there were green bushes and trees in the community between the two of them. She saw Lao Qian, but Lao Qian didn't see her.
When Zhao Ruyue passed by, she heard Lao Qian talking loudly there, boasting that he was friends with the boss who developed the community and that the boss called him brother when he was a child.
Also, after moving here, many people introduced him to potential partners, but he didn't like any of them. Yet those women kept paying for him. He slept with some of them but didn't like them, so he refused to give them a relationship, but those women still refused to leave.
Tian Qing also heard those words, turned around and saw that it was a bald old man.
So she mocked loudly before going upstairs: "Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror to see how ugly you are? A bald old man can only brag to others. If there is really someone who wants to pay for you, why don't you chase him to the community?"
Zhao Ruyue couldn't help laughing, but she reacted quickly and hurriedly pulled her to other buildings, and randomly chose one to go upstairs.
Tian Qing said puzzledly: "Aunt San, this is not the house I bought."
Zhao Ruyue said, "I know, but you just offended that man. What if he holds a grudge against you? You are a young girl living alone, and he is an older bachelor. It might not be safe for him to know where you live. He probably didn't see your face, but your dressing style is quite unique, and it's easy to recognize you from behind. It's better to change your style recently."
Tian Qing was very happy when she heard her say that her dressing style was unique. In the past, only her peers would praise her for dressing like this, while adults would only dislike her for dressing inappropriately. This was the first time that an elder praised her.
"I see. I actually have more than one style of dressing. When we get to the house I bought later, I'll show you other styles of clothes. My parents are in the clothing business, but I only like wearing clothes and don't like working in this business. Their aesthetics are different from mine, so I started my own business."
The two waited in the building for about half an hour, and only after confirming that Lao Qian did not catch up with them did they go around from another staircase in the building to a place far away from Lao Qian's previous location. After making a long detour, they finally returned to the building where Tian Qing's house was.
In order to avoid disturbing the residents downstairs, Tian Qing bought a house on the second floor. In fact, according to Zhao Ruyue's idea, if you don't want to affect others, it is better to buy a warehouse farther away. This way, not only will it not affect others, but it will also be more concealed.
But she had already bought the house, so Zhao Ruyue didn't say much.
After going up to see her two houses, Zhao Ruyue found that her two houses had not been connected yet, and suggested to her: "If you want to live here, it is better not to connect these two houses. This way it is safer, and others will not disturb your rest."
Tian Qing said: "I am worried that one house is not enough. If one house is enough, it is okay not to connect it."
Zhao Ruyue asked her if she knew which walls could not be knocked down and which could be, and then measured with a tape measure: "It's enough, not to mention eight or nine computers, even more than ten are enough. It's just that if there are more computers installed, more people will come to the Internet, and other residents living in this building may have opinions, and maybe even spread some bad words."
Tian Qing could understand that other residents might have opinions, but she couldn't imagine what bad things would be spread: "Will they say I'm a gangster?"
This was all she could think of. She and her friends used to dress in a rather unconventional way, and they had been told this many times.
Zhao Ruyue: "It's worse than calling you a gangster. Think about it, among the people who go online now, are there more men or women?"
"Men." Tian Qing reacted quickly. She was a girl living here, and most of her good friends were girls. They dressed so uniquely that it was easy to be criticized. If so many men came, it might be rumored that this place was a hen house...
Tian Qing asked, "Is it not possible for me to open a small door and pretend that there are two households instead of going directly from the main door to the other house?"
Zhao Ruyue said truthfully: "It's possible in the short term, but you must want to make money continuously for a long time when starting a business, right?
After a long time, the neighbors will definitely find out. After all, you have no way of telling at the beginning whether there are young people in the community among the guests who come to surf the Internet.
If possible, I would actually recommend that you live somewhere else and separate your work and living areas. ”
Tian Qing said in annoyance, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have bought a house so quickly. I should have asked Lili to take me to see you first to see how big a place I needed before buying it. Now I don't have enough money to spend. I'm afraid it won't be enough to buy a computer and other accessories. I also need to buy a computer desk, a computer chair, etc. I'm afraid I won't have enough money."
"It would be great if you could apply for a business license, put up a sign directly, and advertise vigorously in the neighborhood, so that people can know what kind of business you are doing, and most people will not make random guesses."
Tian Qing said: "I also wanted to do it at first, and I even asked for help, but it didn't work. Later I met Lili, and fortunately I met her, I knew why it didn't work. Brother Lei has a backer, and he probably wants to make this a unique business in the county.
But I have already bought a house and I don’t know what else I can do. Now I can only open it quietly. I know some people are the same.
However, other people don’t have as much money as I do. Most of them only have two or three computers, and the venue is directly their own home. They also opened a small Internet cafe. Even though there are only two or three computers, they charge 2.5 yuan per hour for Internet access and can earn several thousand yuan every month!
If they know how to identify spare parts, assemble computers, and repair computers, they can spend half the money on buying the computer. In less than a year, they can earn back the money they spent on the computer, and the rest is all profit, which they can continue to earn as long as the business can be run. ”
Tian Qing didn't say these words to just anyone she met, and she didn't even mention them to her friends.
This is a real way to make money, but I haven't made any money yet and it's too late to keep it to myself, so how can I tell others about it?
In other words, Tian Qing thought that he might have to rely on Zhao Ruyue to help him repair his computer for a long time in the future.
In the early stages, she needed her help with purchasing and assembly, and Zhao Ruyue's family also ran their own business, so they were not short of money and did not plan to earn this money. Maybe she could give her some good suggestions, so she told her so much.
After listening to her words, Zhao Ruyue felt that this girl was really smart and very proactive. It would be difficult for her to accomplish what she wanted to do.
"In that case, why don't you try to open an Internet cafe for girls? Make some nice VIP cards and give them to girls for free in the early stage, and only allow girls with VIP cards to come to the Internet.
When there are too many people, the number of people can be controlled by controlling the number of VIP cards issued. When applying for the card, the customer's contact information is left. If there is a computer available, the customer can be contacted in order according to the VIP card number to ask whether he or she needs to access the Internet, thereby reducing the computer's idle time. ”
Tian Qing followed the line of thought in what Zhao Ruyue said and thought that if someone opened an Internet cafe for girls like that, she would definitely be willing to go!
Not to mention anything else, the fact that there are few smokers among girls is very attractive to her!
After she decided to open an Internet cafe, she was troubled by the issue of secondhand smoke. If she opened an Internet cafe for girls, this problem would almost be solved.
If the girl who comes also smokes, it is easier to communicate with her. Most girls who smoke will stop smoking if someone reminds them.
Men always take it for granted and disregard other people's feelings. When others remind them, they will complain about something irrelevant. Some even curse or hit others.
Of course there are people who care about other people's feelings, but they are too few, especially in a place like an Internet cafe. Most men have created such an environment in the Internet cafe. Even if a few people are considerate of others and listen to advice, it is useless.
Nowadays, there are relatively few girls among the people going to Internet cafes to surf the Internet, so Tian Qing is not worried.
Many girls don’t dislike playing computer games, but they are afraid to go to Internet cafes. Moreover, although there are few girls, the number of computers here is not many either. No matter how few people there are, the number of computers here is greater than that of hers.
"Then I can decorate the computer and the computer stand to make them beautiful according to my own preferences. I can also replace the mouse and keyboard with nice-looking ones."
As Tian Qing spoke, he already had a rough idea of where to place the computer.
But Zhao Ruyue didn't have to worry about all these. She just needed to help buy the computer. After looking at the venue and watching Tian Qing show off her clothes of different styles, Zhao Ruyue went back.
Tian Qing saw her off and when he came back he remembered Zhao Ruyue's previous reminder and took a detour before returning home.
Zhao Ruyue returned to the store and found that the atmosphere was a little strange.
She was just about to find Su Shengnan to ask what happened in the store while she was away, but she didn't see Su Shengnan.
Zhao Ruyue took advantage of the lunch break to go to Tian Qing to look at the venue, while the employees in the store took turns going out to eat and rest.
When she went out, it was Su Shengnan's turn to rest.
"Is Shengnan not back yet?" Zhao Ruyue looked at a clerk and asked.
The clerk pointed to the warehouse at the back and said cautiously, "She came back with red eyes. I don't know if something happened at home or if something happened to her when she was repairing something for someone."
Su Shengnan is now able to take on some repair jobs on her own, and other shop assistants have a two-hour break at noon every day.
Because it was late at night when he got off work, Su Shengnan could only take advantage of this time to go out and take some private work. Zhao Ruyue knew about this, but she didn't think it was a big deal.
Sometimes when Zhao Ruyue’s classmates at night school have work that they can’t finish, they will come to Zhao Ruyue and Su Shengnan will do it. If the time is right, she will recommend it to Su Shengnan to do it.
Zhao Ruyue went to the warehouse and knocked on the door. After a while, Su Shengnan opened the door with red eyes: "Master, are you going to take something? Sorry, I'm occupying the warehouse."
"I'm not trying to get anything. I'm just a little worried about you. Are you okay? Don't keep anything to yourself."
Hearing that she cared about him, Su Shengnan couldn't hold back his tears. He wanted to say something but was afraid of being heard.
Zhao Ruyue walked into the warehouse and closed the door. There were a lot of things inside. After closing the doors and windows, they spoke quietly so that people outside would not hear them.
"Is it because of your father's illness?" Zhao Ruyue asked tentatively.
Su Shengnan shook his head.
Zhao Ruyue understood: "So there is something wrong with the job I took today?"
Su Shengnan nodded. She felt sick when she thought about it now. "The job I took today was just to repair the chandelier. It was not a difficult job. The one who asked me was the mistress of the house. When I went there, both the mistress and the husband were at home. After communicating the problem with them, I climbed up the ladder to repair the chandelier in the living room for them.
The hostess went to the kitchen to cook, and the host helped me hold the ladder.
It was nothing at first, but the hostess happened to notice that the soy sauce was gone, and went downstairs to buy some. Then the host took the opportunity to touch my butt and breasts while I was standing on the ladder with my hands raised to fix something. I was so scared that I almost fell off the ladder.
That person looked gentle and polite, and was particularly courteous when communicating with me. He seemed normal and not vulgar at all. Who knew he was that kind of person! ”
The more Zhao Ruyue listened, the more depressed she felt. She had reminded Su Shengnan before to be on guard, but repairing water and electricity required manual labor after all, and such things were difficult to prevent, and it was also difficult to detect and avoid them in advance.
After all, you can't judge a person's heart by his appearance. No one can judge whether he is a good person or not just by meeting him. Just like the male host, he looked like a decent person before the hostess left, but his true face was revealed as soon as his wife left.
The only thing to be thankful for is that Su Shengnan did not encounter anything more outrageous and escaped in time.
There was no point in reporting this matter to the police because she had no evidence and she had also hurt the man.
"I was filled with rage at the time. I stood on the ladder and kicked him directly in the chin. After I got off the ladder, I took advantage of the pain and slapped him in the face before I ran away."
So she didn't dare bring people to ask that person for an explanation. Otherwise, if that person was seriously injured, she might have to pay for the medical expenses, which would make her even more disgusted.
After Su Shengnan finished her talk, she felt better and didn't want to cry anymore. She just felt a little regretful: "I'm afraid I won't be able to go to that community for a long time. I still have several jobs to do in that community, but now I have to turn them down."
Zhao Ruyue said: "It would be great if you had a partner, even if it was a girl. It would be safer for two of you to go together than to go alone."
"Yes, it's a pity that there are too few girls in this industry. Many of the female colleagues I met took jobs with their husbands, but I don't want to get married so soon. I'm the only child in my family, and I haven't decided whether to take in a son-in-law or marry like other people.
I have several junior high school classmates who originally wanted to learn a skill. I recommended this to them and asked them to follow me, but unfortunately they were not willing to learn and would rather be waiters. ”
Zhao Ruyue was worried about Su Shengnan, but Su Shengnan's words gave her some inspiration: "It's hard to find someone your age to do this, why don't you try someone older?"
"Older ones?"
"Yes, those who are about my age, whose husbands are useless or have divorced and lost their husbands, and who have to earn money to support their families, and want to learn a skill to earn more money."
Su Shengnan's eyes lit up after hearing what she said: "Yes! People of my age prefer jobs that look more glamorous, but older people have greater pressure in life and more experience. They have let go of many things and may not care whether a job is decent or not, but whether they can make more money. Master, I know what to do!"
After Su Shengnan left the warehouse, he excitedly began to write a plan while there were no customers in the store yet.
As the saying goes, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. She thinks she is not a particularly smart person. Her only advantage is that she is not afraid of hard work, fatigue, or losing face.
So if she has a good idea, she has to write it down immediately and plan it carefully. Otherwise, she will easily forget it and fail to consider things comprehensively.
Today is Saturday. The two children of Zhao Ruyue are on holiday. On Friday night, they finished all the homework assigned by the teacher for the weekend, and then ran to the county town to play with Yao Ju on Saturday and Sunday.
I went to Yao Ju's house in the morning to play computer games with him. When I was hungry at noon, I took Yao Ju here to have lunch.
Usually when the children are not around, Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming have a simple lunch at the restaurant. If the children are around, Ning Shaoming will cook.
The portions of meals he cooks each time are large, enough for the staff. He cooks them in different ways every time, and the ingredients are rich and fresh. Employees from all three stores say this is one of the employee benefits.
Every time Yao Ju came to eat together, he was happy, but he always wanted to encourage Ning Shaoming to open a fast food restaurant.
Ning Shiqiu came to bring lunch to Zhao Ruyue and saw Su Shengnan crawling on the counter writing and drawing. He took a look as he passed by. He had been very addicted to reading posts on the Internet recently where others were discussing some business planning. Once he saw this, he couldn't take his eyes off Su Shengnan's notebook.
Su Shengnan noticed that there was someone next to him. He looked up and saw that it was him. He asked jokingly, "Xiao Qiu, are you interested in repairs too? Do you want to work with me during your spare time? You can earn a lot of money, and you can be my partner then."
She had been learning repair from Zhao Ruyue for so long, so she knew that although Ning Shiqiu was a good student, he was not very good at this craft and was not very interested in it, so she was just joking with him.
Ning Shiqiu shook his head, but asked her: "Can you let me see the plan you wrote?"
There was nothing to hide about this, so Su Shengnan handed it over directly: "Here, take a look. Just leave the food to me, and I'll help you take it to your mother."
Employees have different meal times, so meals are packed into disposable lunch boxes, with one portion of rice, one portion of vegetable, and one portion of soup for each person.
When Ning Shaoming does not cook, employees can choose to eat at restaurants or get subsidies to prepare their own lunch.
Ning Shiqiu took the notebook and handed the food to her.
Su Shengnan brought the meal to Zhao Ruyue who was repairing a mobile phone. Her own break had just ended, so she hurried to replace other people in entertaining the guests and asked them to eat next door.
Ning Shiqiu quickly finished reading the contents of the notebook and returned the notebook to Su Shengnan.
Then he said, "Sister Shengnan, your plan is too loose. It's like just gathering some odd-job workers together and asking them to find work together. They rely on their conscience to restrain each other, but they don't formulate corresponding rules and regulations to manage them. It's easy for problems to arise later."
Su Shengnan said: "I also know that this may cause problems, but I am not qualified to manage others. I can only try to find people I am familiar with and have decent character. If there are problems later, at worst we can go our separate ways and I can find someone else."
Ning Shiqiu said disapprovingly: "Wouldn't that delay things?"
Su Shengnan nodded: "It will indeed delay things a bit, but there is nothing we can do about it."
"You have no right to manage others, but you can create qualifications for yourself."
"Ah? How to create it?" Su Shengnan didn't quite understand.
Ning Shiqiu thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, I'll find something to show you."
After he finished speaking, he ran to look through his mother's bag and took out a business card from it: "Look at this, this is the business card that someone handed out flyers in the community and gave to my parents when my family went to Yangcheng for fun during the Labor Day holiday."
Su Shengnan took it and looked at it: "Qiao Sister Housekeeping Service Company?"
She continued to read on and read aloud: "Main business: cleaning, confinement nanny, elderly care, patient care and other services... Can I start a company with these? Then can I do water, electricity, doors and windows repair, electrical appliance repair... Wait, you are not really suggesting that I should start a company too?"
"Yes."
"But I haven't seen such a company in the county. Everyone either does guerrilla work or relies on referrals from acquaintances to slowly develop clients."
Ning Shiqiu looked at her disapprovingly: "It's because no one in the county is doing this yet, so it's easier to do! Think about it, my dad used to sell bowl cakes at the night market, how much did he sell each one for, and how good his business was. Now look at those bowl cakes sold at the night market, they can't even sell them at the same price as my dad did back then. Is it true that there's really not a single delicious one among all these stalls?"
His words made Su Shengnan fall into deep thought. When she came to her senses, Ning Shiqiu had already gone to Yao Ju's house to play with Ning Shixia and Yao Ju.
Su Shengnan had no choice but to go to Zhao Ruyue again: "Master, do you think it is possible to start a company without education?"
She always felt that it would be great if people with low education could open several stores like her master and his wife.
In Su Shengnan's opinion, starting a company is something very far away from him. It only appears in movies, TV dramas, newspapers and magazines, and it is also something that only educated people can do.
Zhao Ruyue didn't hear her conversation with Ning Shiqiu, and didn't know why she asked this, so she answered subconsciously: "Why not? You don't need to look at academic qualifications when applying for a business license. Nowadays, many rich people don't have high academic qualifications, and some even didn't finish elementary school or junior high school.
Only after becoming rich will people spend money to get a working undergraduate or graduate degree. Of course, there are also people who don’t care about academic qualifications and don’t bother with this. ”
"Xiao Qiu just said that my plan was too loose and suggested that I start a company to manage people. Do you think I can do it?"
"I was wondering why you suddenly asked this. It turned out that this guy was the cause of the trouble. I have no experience in starting a company. I can only tell you that if you just asked me, you can start a company.
My answer is: Yes, as long as you want to start a business and have the start-up capital, you can start a business if you take action.
But if your question also implies whether you can succeed after doing it, then I can only answer that I don’t know. After all, this is entrepreneurship, and there are too many factors that affect the success of entrepreneurship. ”
