Chapter 307 Investigation
Zhang Jing didn't envy Lin Zhi's booming business. The more booming Lin Zhi's business was, the better her own business would be. Lin Zhi's hotel business could only make nine yuan a day at most.
A TV only costs a few hundred yuan, so there is no comparison between the two.
I just hope that Wang Fang can also do this business. Now there are too many sewing machines in the city competing for business. Those educated youth who went to the countryside have no jobs when they return home. When they see Wang Fang's sewing machine placed at the entrance of the alley, they naturally imitate Wang Fang and do mending for others to earn some living expenses.
So Wang Fang’s business is not doing well now. She only makes a few cents a day and sometimes she has no business at all.
Zhang Jing asked Wang Fang to start a small business with her, but Wang Fang refused. Now Li Baoguo is the workshop leader of the food factory, with a monthly salary of more than 70 yuan. She was afraid that doing business would affect Li Baoguo.
Li Dashun was in the egg business and knew all the leaders of the food factory. Li Baoguo was also smart and sensible, so he became the team leader. This was the result of many years of hard work and could not be ruined because of the business.
Sewing and mending with a sewing machine does not count as doing business, all you need is a stall certificate.
Zhao Yi did try to persuade Wang Fang, but Wang Fang rejected his kindness.
"Xiao Yi, your brother used to be able to support the whole family with only 26 yuan. How could he live in poverty now that his salary is so high? I know you are doing this for my own good and hope that the family can earn more money.
Although my business is not so good, his grandfather's income is definitely not low, earning more than one hundred or two hundred yuan a month. His family is not short of money. I just set up the stall because I am bored. ”
Wang Fang explained to Zhao Yi.
In fact, Zhao Yi knew that the money earned by the old man was not only for Li Baoguo's child. Wang Fang wanted to make money but was more afraid that the business would be stopped. They were all people who had experienced the ups and downs of the past ten years, and they all remembered some things from the past in their hearts.
Wang Fang is not worried about Zhao Yi because Zhao Yi has a strong connection and background in the city.
Wang Fang has no advantages in opening a hotel, and perhaps she does not have that much courage. In fact, courage is the key to the success or failure of doing business. Just like seeing that the TV business is making money, many people have savings and can purchase goods to sell, but they are still afraid to take that step, and ultimately they still have to watch others make money.
The Linzhi family dared to do so because they had courage, resources, and geographical advantage.
Their home was not far from Zhao Yi's shop and was in the city. His mother's home was in Xinshi, where the market was completely blank. Even if hundreds of televisions entered the market, they could not make any splash.
After closing the shop door, Zhang Jing walked towards Lin Zhi's house.
Zhao Yi walked back home.
"Comrade Zhang is here."
Lin Zhi saw Zhang Jing and greeted her with a smile. She had just finished a phone call and another customer was coming. Now, without her brothers from her natal family, four or five customers would call her every day. These were all recommended by satisfied customers who had returned.
"I heard you were going to rent a house again, so come and take a look."
Zhang Jing smiled.
"Actually, I agree with what you said, Comrade Zhang. We should build a house next to the bus station. That way, it will be convenient for receiving customers and for those who have just come into the city."
Lin Zhi looked at Zhang Jing and said.
This was the suggestion Zhang Jing gave her. The station built by the regional city was very large, and there was vacant land all around. Not many people are building houses there now. It was only when Li Mingzhu proposed that a sales counter could be built at the railway station to serve the traveling public that a supply and marketing cooperative was established in the station, but it only sold food.
The guesthouse is on the street of the department store, and it takes five bus stops to get there from the station.
Therefore, building a house near the station is a better choice now, but it requires some tricks. You need to return the house here to the street, and then apply for a piece of land over there for construction.
Of course, you can also buy those thatched houses next to the station and tear them down and rebuild them. It depends on what Linzhi’s family chooses.
"I just said it casually. You have to make your own decision."
Zhang Jing smiled.
As they talked, the two of them walked into the alley, and Lin Zhi took Zhang Jing to visit the empty rooms in the house.
These rooms for customers are very clean and tidy, and look very comfortable. Zhang Jing nodded unconsciously. Lin Zhi treats this matter as a career.
No wonder those customers would take the initiative to help introduce the restaurant, instead of just taking advantage of the natural location to get by.
Linzhi had already sent all of today's customers away, so all the rooms in the house were empty. After a round of walking, every room was clean.
Zhang Jing chatted with Lin Zhi for a while before going back home.
"The head of the family."
Zhang Jing shouted after seeing Zhao Yi lying in a rocking chair reading a newspaper.
"What happened?"
Zhao Yi put down the newspaper and sat up.
"I found that the hotel business is not as simple as we thought. At least Lin Zhi's hotel business is done with great care. In any case, in the future, even if those people don't come to buy a TV, they will choose to stay at their house when they visit the regional city."
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and said.
Zhao Yi did not answer the question, but just nodded.
Linzhi's hotel = no matter what it looks like, it actually has no advantage. The mainstream now is to go to a guesthouse or hotel with a letter of introduction. Most people definitely can't afford to stay in a hotel for just a few dollars a night.
The guesthouse is equivalent to a department store and is an independent work unit. However, their work unit is called a guesthouse, but they are actually service department staff. The price for one night's accommodation has remained the same since Zhao Yi first came to the city until now. A one-day stay with food and lodging is 85 cents.
The meals we ate were of course from a big pot. For breakfast, we had a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles. For lunch, we had a bowl of tofu soup and two steamed buns. Dinner was almost the same, with a vegetarian dish and two steamed buns.
Linzhi's home cannot compare to the guesthouse in terms of environment or anything else.
It’s different with hotels. Most people can’t afford the several dollars a night expense. The monthly salary is only a few dozen dollars. It’s better to stay in a remote corner for a night than to pay a few dollars a night.
Therefore, although the hotels in Linzhi are not as good as the guesthouses, they still have certain advantages. Zhang Jing went there to investigate in order to persuade Wang Fang. Of course, not now, but when Linzhi's business is well developed and becomes what Zhao Yi said, when people will not need letters of introduction when going out in the future.
I have experience and can give Wang Fang some advice.
"Youfu is going to Rongcheng tomorrow, let's go to the department store and buy him some winter clothes."
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and suggested.
This time, school vacation doesn't start until the twelfth lunar month, and if I prepare summer clothes, the weather will turn cold in a few months. Zhang Jing thinks it's best to give winter clothes directly.
"Just make the arrangements as you see fit."
Zhao Yi stood up and nodded, then followed Zhang Jing towards the department store. Of course, grocery stores also sell clothes, but they don’t have winter clothes yet.
