Chapter 351 Something Happened
This is Song Laosi’s first time in Gaoxin City.
Gaoxin City is neither far nor near from Rongcheng, and it takes ten hours by train. This time he brought Xiao Mantou with him. In the past, they could only be considered salesmen when doing business, but now they have set up their own business.
I am in a pretty good mood at this moment. Although I have never been to Gaoxin City, it is a city that is not inferior to Pingyang City.
The two of them took their belongings and headed towards the square.
The two people who had never been to Gaoxin City had no idea what the situation was like here, and they didn't see any vendors when they arrived at the square.
"Mantou, go ask the street office if you can get a temporary stall certificate. I'll set up the stall when you come back."
Song Laosi was more cautious. If something went wrong, not only would all the goods on his stall be taken away, but he might even have to stay in jail for a few days as he was not familiar with the place.
Xiao Mantou nodded, asked around and found the street office, got a temporary stall certificate and ran back immediately.
The two of them then began to prepare to set up the stall with confidence.
As soon as the two of them spread out their mats, many people gathered around.
"Comrades, are you displaying comic books?"
A group of young people asked with a smile.
The stalls here in the square usually sell either comic books or snacks. Today, the comic book vendor didn't come, so I thought the two were his relatives.
"Comrade, we are here to sell televisions, clothes and shoes."
Little Mantou shook his head and explained.
"What?"
Everyone was confused for a moment, as if they didn't hear clearly what the two people said.
There is no one selling clothes at stalls in Gaoxin City, let alone televisions. Aren’t these things sold in department stores?
Song Laosi ignored everyone's surprise and opened the cardboard box. A new TV appeared in front of everyone. Then he used a few wooden sticks to hang up clothes and skirts, and placed pairs of leather shoes on the mat.
"You really are selling TVs. How much do you want to sell this TV for?"
"Five hundred and fifty per unit, refundable or exchangeable. Please call this number to get a refund or exchange."
Song Laosi wrote the warehouse's phone number on the TV casing. Anyway, it was Zheng Hongtao who said the three guarantees policy and he did it this way. They had sold so many TVs and some had problems, so Zheng Hongtao replaced them with new ones.
If it's broken, just send it back for a refund.
Now they are just here to test the waters. Once the demand is great, he and Xiao Mantou will have to find a way to settle down and occupy the vacant market. At least each of them can occupy one shop.
As for the rest, Zheng Hongtao will arrange people to come over himself.
"Need TV tickets?"
Everyone was very curious.
"No, I don't need these clothes or shoes."
Song Laosi explained with a smile.
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd became agitated. The fabrics of these clothes were quite good, especially the leather shoes, which looked very nice.
The goods the two brought were all sold out in just the morning, and many people asked if there were any more.
"Mantou, it seems that this is working. You go back and buy the goods immediately. I will find a way to solve the food ration problem and the rent of the storefront."
Song Laosi knew that if he wanted to expand his business, he had to take over the current vacant market. As for the problem of food rations, he could simply go to the black market and exchange them for tickets.
I earned more than 300 yuan in just one morning. This is faster than picking up money.
Shanyang County.
Garment factory.
Zhao Yi was walking around in the workshop at this time, and he was very satisfied seeing everyone busy.
The current production speed of garment factories can barely supply the entire current market, but it still cannot keep up with the speed of looms producing cloth. Now a lot of cloth is still piled up in warehouses.
Zhang Jing is making arrangements for the storefronts in the city. Once the stalls in the city are also set up, the current speed will be a bit slow.
However, there are no workers available to take on apprentices when recruiting now, so each person already has at least two apprentices.
The regular workers in that industry had four people to teach, and had no time to teach the new apprentices.
"The factory manager has someone looking for you."
Security team leader Luo Sheng trotted over to Zhao Yi and said.
Zhao Yi was a little confused but still followed Luo Sheng to the office.
Zhao Yi doesn't know many people in Shanyang County. He has met Luo Sheng, who knows him, as well as Director Xiao and his elder brother-in-law. As for his parents and his second and younger aunts, they will not come.
When I arrived at the office, I saw a young man in a leather jacket sitting on the sofa drinking tea.
When he saw Zhao Yi come in, he didn't stand up, but nodded slightly.
"What does this comrade want from me?"
Zhao Yi became even more confused because he had never seen the man in front of him and they had never had any interaction before.
"Hello, Comrade Zhao. Let me introduce myself briefly. My name is Bai Feng. I'm from Rongcheng. I came here to discuss a business deal with Comrade Zhao."
The young man looked at Zhao Yi and smiled, his tone neither hurried nor slow, as if it was not a big deal.
"I wonder what Comrade Bai wants to talk to me about?"
Zhao Yi became even more confused.
"I want to buy Comrade Zhao's clothing factory."
Bai Feng said with a smile.
"I wonder how much Comrade Bai is prepared to pay for my clothing factory?"
Zhao Yi was not angry. He didn't know the background of the person in front of him, and he didn't want to offend anyone easily.
"Fifty thousand dollars."
Bai Feng stretched out a palm and said.
"Comrade Bai, please go back."
Zhao Yi shook his head. Which rich young man was this drunk and came here to tease him? This price was not even enough to buy two textile machines for him.
"I believe Comrade Zhao will agree to this price."
Bai Feng did not get up and leave, but looked at Zhao Yi with a smile.
"I don't know how Comrade Bai is going to make me agree to your unreasonable request."
There was no change on Zhao Yi's face, but he was a little angry in his heart.
"I believe Comrade Zhao will know next time I come here."
Bai Feng stood up, smiled slightly, then walked out of the office.
Zhao Yi looked at the other party's back as he left, thinking that he had never offended him in any way, so what was he doing? Judging from his attitude, it seemed that the garment factory was already in his pocket.
However, Zhao Yi was not worried. The garment factory involved more than just himself. If any problems occurred in the factory, Tang Wenjie and Zheng Hongtao would not be able to sit still.
This is also the reason why Zhao Yi wanted to bring two people into the team even though he could do it alone.
No matter what tricks the other party uses, just wait and see.
"The factory manager is not well."
Master Wang, the manager of the textile factory workshop, came to the factory director's office and shouted when he saw Zhao Yi.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Yi was puzzled.
“The power outage occurred at the factory.”
Master Wang said anxiously that if there is a sudden power outage, the machine will suddenly crash, which will damage the equipment and waste materials.
Zhao Yi picked up the phone and called the power bureau.
"There's a problem with the line, and our workers are repairing it. Maybe the high power consumption of the garment factory caused an overload and short-circuited the wires."
The staff of the power bureau said.
The power problem here has not been solved yet, so several staff members came to the factory.
"Hello, Comrade Zhao, we have something here that requires your cooperation in the investigation."
Several staff members handed the documents to Zhao Yi and then took him into the car.
