Originally, the appointment of Shui Qing to start a service company was breaking news for "Polar Bear".
Who knew that on the day when the young workers reported it, Hong Yanwu would add another layer of drama to the news.
Unexpectedly, no one was given any work to do, and cigarettes, melon seeds, and hot tea were provided to serve them all.
This...where is this foster uncle? Does he still look like he wants to do serious business?
No need to ask, of course these "big men" who enjoy welfare are beautiful, and they don't show off to their acquaintances when they catch them.
He said that the service company is really a good job. He didn't expect to be transferred here and enjoy a blessing. There is no place where he can be as nourishing as here.
As for whether this day will last forever, never mind.
After all, they are all working in the public sector and have to work hard to earn a living. Even if the company fails, the factory will have to make arrangements for them.
Someone else made up a jingle, saying, "The service company is so relaxing. Cigarettes, melon seeds, and hot tea are provided. I have to poop and pee at two o'clock. I lift my pants and get off work."
But other employees were dumbfounded by this situation.
Some are jealous and some are sad.
But everyone said that this company was finished, it would never be able to run well, and the money in the factory was just wasted.
As for the factory leaders, it is even less likely to have any positive comments.
Secretary Guo and other political cadres snickered and said that Factory Director Yang was entrusting an unreasonable person.
Not to mention that these young workers are crooked melons, cracked dates, and rotten sour pears. Even the water is clear and cannot be reused.
The other cadres were confused and confused.
What they didn't understand was that Shui Qing was supposedly a very stable person, how could he do such a shallow and ignorant thing?
Especially Director Yang himself and Sister Wei, their claws were all numb.
They all couldn't help but murmur together, could it be that the bet was really wrong?
So the two of them came to Hong Yanwu and Shui Qing to ask about the situation.
They did not expect that both Hong Yanwu and Shui Qing would have a confident attitude.
Just smile at them, say everything is normal, ask them to wait with peace of mind, and promise to get back on track soon.
Peace of mind? How can I feel peace of mind?
Director Yang was so impatient that he wanted to break the casserole and get to the bottom of it.
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu complained.
"Oh, my great factory director, we have planned this, why are you so worried just as soon as we get started? If this is the case, then we will never do it again in the future. Why don't we have to report everything to you?
Isn’t it different whether we have the right to operate independently or not? Let me tell you, we don’t need nannies or crutches, we just need your trust.”
Director Yang immediately felt embarrassed.
Fortunately, there was Shuiqing in charge of Hong Yanwu and said something to him.
Only then did Hong Yanwu patiently explain.
"Director, I don't have to sell things to you. The key is that the general policy remains unchanged, and almost everything that needs to be reported has been reported to you. As for the specific operations that are too trivial, we have to adjust them based on the objective situation and act accordingly.
"
"To tell you the truth, human psychology is a bit complicated. It would be too troublesome to explain to you how to catch these people. It would be better to talk about the actual results and achievements."
"Anyway, let me tell you this, soon, I will have them begging me to work. And I will see profits soon. We won't make any losses this month, and maybe we can make some money. Can you rest assured?
"
Having said that, Director Yang couldn't ask any more questions. He thought about it and what Hong Yanwu said made sense.
Don't be too distrustful of them, just have this attitude.
He has issued a military order, but he himself is not in a hurry. Why is he so anxious?
It's not that the emperor is not in a hurry, so why is he so anxious...
So Director Yang smiled bitterly at Sister Wei and had no choice but to withdraw first.
Unexpectedly, when leaving, Hong Yanwu was so coquettish and kept talking straight out of his mouth.
"Director Yang, actually we don't need your help. I can give you a warning first. It's time for you to worry when we are done fighting. Someone will be jealous by then, so you have to help.
We can hold on, don't let anyone ruin this good situation..."
Hey, that’s really crazy!
Come on, since you are so sure, let’s listen to this first!
To be honest, Director Yang really doesn't believe Hong Yanwu's words at this moment.
But it didn't take long for Hong Yanwu to make this come true.
By that time, with the facts in front of him, Director Yang really couldn't stop looking at him so highly.
I completely regarded this kid as a sizzling, snarling, and shining worldly genius.
So how did Hong Yanwu do it so quickly?
In fact, it started from a humble small business.
Didn't I say before that Hong Yanwu had three business plans: honesty, benefit, and luxury?
Of course, a house cannot be built in a day. Shops and restaurants need to be built, so he asked Shui Qing to find the Infrastructure Department to plan the location and cost of building the house.
On the other hand, I can only start with the smallest and easiest transactions.
That is to find people riding tricycles to sell loose goods at tourist attractions such as the Forbidden City, Beihai, and Tiananmen.
Do you sell soda popsicles?
No! In the middle of winter, it’s weird that you can make money selling off-season products. Everything you do must be in season.
So what are you selling?
Hey, Hong Yanwu had already thought about selling candied haws.
This thing is a unique specialty in the north, especially popular in Beijing and Tianjin.
It is not only attractive in taste, sweet and sour, good for health, suitable for all ages, but also has a long history.
It is said that its origin is related to the imperial doctor's use of fried red fruits to cure Emperor Guangzong of Song Dynasty from food poisoning.
It got its name because each bunch of candied haws originally had only two fruits, one big and one small.
The big one is on the bottom, and the small one is on top, with a bamboo stick pierced in the middle, like a gourd, hence the name candied haws.
This statement is found in "Information from the Court of the Late Qing Dynasty" and is probably reliable.
And this thing really started to become popular among the people, and evolved into the modern candied haws.
In fact, it started in the late Qing Dynasty. The old names in the capital, "Fountain of Youth", "Jiulong Zhai" and "Xinyuan Zhai", improved this thing according to the palace practice and promoted it to the people.
It is precisely because the production method is not difficult and easy to learn.
Later, the poor people also began to make and sell their own products to make a little money in the winter.
So every winter, there will be vendors on the streets of Beijing and Tianjin, either carrying poles or straw stakes.
On top are candied haws of sugar-coated haws made from mountain reds, crab apples, yam, walnut kernels and other raw materials, and are sold in the streets.
In the middle of winter, it is the peak season for selling candied haws.
Think about it, isn’t it in season to sell this thing right now?
In addition, there are no state-owned units selling this stuff now, so the competition is only scattered small businessmen and hawkers.
The market is almost blank and the space is unlimited.
This is the time of day.
In addition, it is also advantageous to do this.
This does not mean that Hong Yanwu has already established a relationship with the Forbidden City attractions. He already has his own brothers who have become the vanguard stationed there.
What's that?
What this really means is that the service company is backed by the big tree "Polar Bear".
We have superior innate advantages in purchasing channels, production materials and even management rights.
Don’t forget, “Polar Bear” itself is a major food manufacturer in Beijing.
The various types of canned fruits it produces, especially "canned hawthorn", have long held a monopoly in the capital.
Therefore, when it comes to the raw materials for making candied haws, whether they are main ingredients or auxiliary ingredients, as long as the service company needs them, there is no need to worry at all.
Because of Director Yang's approval, the service company can directly write a note from the factory workshop to allocate raw materials, based on the purchase price.
Not only is it cheap, but it is also of high quality.
Even if you have a good relationship with the person in charge of the workshop, you can directly extract the rinsed raw materials.
It's clean and hygienic, and it saves trouble.
As for the empty house, boiling pot and water board required for making candied haws, they are all ready-made.
There is an empty room of 20 square meters in the small canteen, where some useless sundries are stored and can be used immediately after being packed away.
The pots and plates are taken directly from the canteen. Master Pang will write an order later and ask for new ones from the factory, which is equivalent to getting them for free.
In fact, even if we modify the tricycles we sell and add a sealed glass cover to the vehicle, we basically rely on favors and take advantage of the factory.
Because Hong Yanwu got two boxes of chicken nuggets from the cafeteria and bought two good cigarettes with public funds, the carpenter in the factory happily helped.
Wouldn't this save money?
When it comes to what the service company really spends on production materials, it is actually just buying a few tricycles.
Also, the licensing issue is also critical.
The main force selling candied haws on a stick is actually farmers in the suburbs, but they do not have licenses and are operating without a license.
Because just for these two months of business, it is not worth it. Not to mention the trouble of applying for a license, and having to pay taxes, I have to be embarrassed by the industrial and commercial tax.
Therefore, this group of people dare not show their faces on the street, and most of them do business by wandering in the alleys.
If you are brave and dare to go to a lively place to sell things, you have to guard against being confiscated by the industrial and commercial enterprises.
If you fail to catch up, you will earn more, and if you run away, it will be fine, but if you are caught, you will be punished and lose money.
In contrast, the service company, which is a subsidiary of the "Polar Bear" factory, has no such concerns.
They don't need to go through any formalities. Just relying on the golden sign of the factory, they can safely do business on the streets of the city without any risk of industrial and commercial investigation.
Moreover, it can be said to have a good reputation as "convenient".
They are not like the traveling merchants and hawkers, who hide and seek like mice and run away in panic whenever they see businessmen.
Nor will I be disliked or driven away by the person in charge of the scenic spot at Tiananmen Square or the Forbidden City.
Even the Price Bureau will not compete with them too much.
Because after all, they are all public institutions and one family, so who follows whom?
Think about it, how different is the inside and outside?
Of course, finally we have to talk about harmony.
These days, most people really have the impression that "state-owned enterprises do not cheat people, they are clean and hygienic".
This makes it easier for the service company to buy a private person.
At least when comparing the two, even if there is a slight price difference, people are still willing to buy government-owned products.
But Hong Yanwu has more than just this advantage.
Because he had never expected that "Zhang Dashao" was such a great chef, from a family of royal chefs, and a master who specialized in cooking big dishes.
He has actually thought about and drilled into making candied haws, and he is a real master that no one can match.
