"Brother, let's go, big brother will help you make a lot of money!"
As soon as the door of Wang's courtyard opened, Xu Da rushed in, grabbed Wang Dayou who was obviously frightened, and said seriously.
Wang Dayou couldn't react and asked blankly: "How much money can you make?"
"Ms. sir, who is it?" Tong was disturbed by the movement in the courtyard and was about to come out to have a look.
Wang Dayou had already reacted at this time and hurriedly comforted him: "It's Brother Xu. He has something to do with me. Please stay in the house and don't freeze."
Tong's gentle response came from inside the room, as well as two muffled low coughs.
Xu Da glanced into the room doubtfully, but remembering that it was inappropriate for a foreigner to ask about a female relative of the other party, he no longer paid attention to Tong's cough and pulled Wang Dayou out.
"Brother Xu, where are we going?" Wang Dayou asked in confusion as he closed the door.
Xu Da smiled at him, as if I had already seen through what you were thinking, "Aren't you just trying to discuss with me how to make a bed for someone else? Now let's go and make a bed for someone else."
"Hey, how much do you think we should charge? This kang-making is a technical job, and a piece of linen isn't too much, right?"
Xu Da asked while secretly calculating in his mind, feeling that even a piece of linen was not worthy of his craftsmanship.
Wang Dayou listened to him talking to himself and was startled. Xu Da agreed without any conditions and wanted to take him to Pankang to make money?
Wang Dayou reacted and said embarrassedly: "Brother Xu, you are really a roundworm in my stomach. Why do you know everything I think?"
Xu Daxin said, I can see through your little dao from the inside out at a glance.
Besides, with the current situation of the two companies, how could they let go of any way to make money?
Especially the Wang family, after repairing their new home, they must have really run out of money. The government office distributed sixty kilograms of grain, which seemed like a lot, but the food needed to feed several mouths in the family, and it was all finished in less than a month.
Thinking of this, Xu Da, who was not very worried at first, also felt a little sad. His family had more mouths to eat than the Wang family.
Wang Dayou waited for a long time before Xu Da answered, wondering what he was thinking, so he changed the topic.
The two talked about charging, and Wang Dayou said that a piece of linen was definitely not worthy of his brother Xu's craftsmanship, but brother, you still have to pay attention to the reality.
Brick movers in the west of the city only cost five dollars a day, and it is still a laborious job. This shows that people generally have a low understanding of labor costs.
Moreover, our yellow mud is dug for nothing, and almost every household has a few molds. Rounding it all off, it is free of charge.
"I think we should charge 20 yuan each? The two of us can cook two kangs a day, and each of us can earn 20 yuan. It is much better than the brick movers in the west of the city."
Wang Dayou felt a little embarrassed when he revealed the plan he had thought of earlier. He looked at Xu Da specifically, hoping that Brother Xu would not laugh at him for thinking too much.
Xu Da looked at his "cunning" face that was slightly red from embarrassment and was very disappointed.
He took a deep breath and said earnestly: "Da You, you have to know that your craftsmanship is definitely worthy of a piece of linen, do you understand?"
Wang Dayou was deeply moved, "Brother, with your recognition, I will have no regrets even if I die! Just tell me, I will do what you say!"
Xu Da curled his lips and smiled, with a bit of cunning in his eyes. He waved to Wang Dayou to come closer and said softly:
"No one has seen this thing, but those who have seen it will never be able to resist its benefits. Let's find two families to show it for free first, and then we will start charging fees after others know its benefits...
"
Like this, blah blah blah, Xu Da said a lot, but Wang Dayou could understand it at the beginning, but in the second half, he seemed to understand but not quite.
What does it mean to be the top line and work hard to develop the bottom line?
You also said that you can make money by selling your craftsmanship without making the kang yourself?
If you are selling your craftsmanship, why don’t you do it yourself?
Wang Dayou suspected that his eldest brother might be too excited and confuse his words, but as the younger brother, he wanted to save face for his eldest brother, so he would not expose him for the time being.
Xu Da looked at Wang Dayou's "I understand, I understand" look and glanced at him suspiciously, "Do you really understand?"
Wang Dayou nodded heavily, I really understand!
Xu Da: Okay, let’s get started!
The two walked out of the Beicheng slums and came to the lively streets, where they began their first step - publicity!
However, this is easier said than done. Everyone is very curious about the fire kang, which is something they have never heard of.
But when they heard that Brother Xu wanted to come from home to make a bed for them for free, they were so frightened that they waved their hands.
He looked so wary, as if the two of them were going to rob his house.
The vigilance was quite high. Xu Da sighed with a bitter smile in his heart.
However, after walking around the county town, Xu Da could probably understand what these people were thinking.
In this small county, there are still only a few truly wealthy people, and most ordinary people do not understand that free money is an exclusive privilege that only those with status and status can enjoy.
In the eyes of powerful people, if someone wants to give them something for free, it must be to curry favor with them or to ask for something from them. They are also used to letting others give them free things. Because of the great disparity in status, sometimes it can even reach the point of free prostitution.
The effect is good, so I don’t feel anything wrong.
But ordinary people don't think that way. What they think is that you two outsiders want to build a fire bed for my house that they have never heard of before for no reason. They must have some agenda and evil intentions, because there is no free lunch in the world.
Thinking of this, Xu Da felt that he should adjust his strategy.
He immediately changed his mind. When someone came up to ask, he never mentioned the word "free" again. Instead, he acted as if he was proud that if he couldn't afford it, he might as well forget it.
Man, sometimes you just act like a bitch, and he doesn’t want what you give him for free, and he still wonders if you are trying to harm him.
But when you act like you're too high for the job, he'll rush to beg you to go to his house and help him get a high-end Kang with a shy look on his face.
Xu Da felt that there was a word that his daughter often said that could perfectly explain this kind of behavior, and that was "rebellion."
So, under the repeated requests of the two wealthy housekeepers, Xu Da reluctantly agreed to their request and gave their family the strongest fire pit in the city for the price of a piece of linen.
Wang Dayou watched the whole process, admiring his eldest brother so much. Seeing his eldest brother leaving with the two housekeepers, he hurriedly pushed away the people who were asking enthusiastic questions about the fire bed, and quickly followed him.
Two wealthy households live next to each other, one is the Li Mansion and the other is the Feng Mansion. They both live in the same place, which saves trouble.
Xu Da and Wang Dayou first looked at the places where the two families wanted to lay the kang, determined the amount of bricks, and asked them to prepare it. It was dark.
It was impossible to work overtime. No matter how the two housekeepers tried to persuade them to stay in the mansion, Xu Da firmly refused.
