Chapter 1222 I must have offended God in my last life (friends)
After the wine was almost gone, Liu Guangyong used the strength of the wine to mention something about himself. He didn't get too hung up and asked directly: "Zekai, your brother is really bad at it now. You can just look at me and point it out."
Forget it."
"What are you doing now, brother Yong?" Xia Zekai was curious and asked casually.
He remembered that this cousin also had quite a lot of experience and was considered a very real person among his cousins.
"I now work at the Dongcheng Environmental Sanitation Bureau, driving a sprinkler truck. After deducting insurance, I only earn 1,500 to 600 yuan a month. It's hard to live." Liu Guangyong complained. He is 40 years old, and he must expect to support his family with such a small amount of money.
It's all in vain.
He said: "But our work is all scheduled, and we are not busy every day. When there is no work, I sell insurance."
"To be honest, insurance is really hard to sell!"
Xia Zekai found it interesting to hear his cousin complaining there. He kept hearing his cousin say that he later sold bearings to Mingjie's brother-in-law.
It was quite profitable at first, but as the overall market declined, the bearings in their factory could no longer be sold.
"Brother, do you think I offended God in my last life? I'm just so shy in this life. Ever since I became a major, my life has been really not smooth at all." Liu Guangyong thought of the days when he and his wife quarreled over 'less money'
, I feel like my head is buzzing.
It seemed that his mind had instinctively started simulating the reasons, process, and outcome of the next fight with his wife.
The phrase "firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea" encompasses all kinds of tastes in life.
Hearing what his cousin Liu Guangyong said, Xia Zekai thought of his days before he became successful, which were exactly the same.
However, he remembered that in his previous life, his cousin did quite well. One time when he came home during the Chinese New Year, he saw that his cousin had already driven the new Buick GL8.
Having said that, a car worth more than 300,000 yuan is really not something anyone can buy if they want to.
I can’t remember who I heard mentioned that Brother Yong made money by selling intelligent robot learning machines.
Thinking of this, Xia Zekai remembered something. When they had a dinner after the Spring Festival this year, Zhang Xu told him that the key links of 'Xiao Ai Classmates' have broken through the technical bottleneck, and the rest is simple, that is to say,'
Xiaoai classmates' will soon be available to the market.
My cousin was not good at insurance in his previous life, and there was no big development in selling bearings. However, he made great gains by selling intelligent robot learning machines.
Xia Zekai felt that his cousin was quite good at this, so he said: "Brother Yong, I have a project in Beijing. I am working on it with a few other people. We are working on the product. It is expected that the finished product will be available in the second half of this year. You
If you are willing, how about going to the capital to have a look?"
He knew very well that with his cousin Liu Guangyong's temperament, he was not the material to start a business or to be a manager. It would be safer for him to do something practical and earn some money.
After what Liu Guangyong said just now, he didn't expect to gain something so soon, but when he heard what his cousin said, he hesitated a little.
The biggest difficulty is to go to the capital, not Qicheng or Dongcheng. The capital is not close to home, and it is inconvenient to come back.
If I get really busy in the future, I won’t be able to come back for a long time.…
Everyone else at the table fell silent when they heard what Xia Zekai said. They listened carefully to Xia Zekai's brief explanation of the project.
But after listening, they knew that they didn't need to think about it. What Xia Zekai just said was just an ordinary salesperson, nothing more.
It's not even a management position. It will be a job where you can earn as much as you have the ability, and they won't be interested anymore.
But Liu Guangyong has been listening carefully. Unlike the other cousins, he has really lost his temper due to the days of no money and is in urgent need of finding a job that can make money.
But since he was going to stay in the capital for a long time, he thought that he would have to discuss it with his wife when he was no longer busy.
After all, my son has reached the age to take the high school entrance examination.
Thinking of this, he said to Xia Zekai: "Brother, I will discuss it with your sister-in-law and give you an answer as soon as possible."
"Okay, Brother Yong, you should think about it carefully when you go back. This is not to say that you are in a hurry. It will take at least a few months for the product to be released." Xia Zekai said.
After hearing what he said, other people didn't care about it anymore.
Who can tell clearly what will happen in a few months?
At other tables, people were having a great time eating and drinking, and the brothers took turns toasting to the old man Xia Shande.
However, Xia Shande drank boiled water. When these descendants came over to propose a toast, he just took a sip of water meaningfully.
That's it, Xia Shande is also very happy.
Everyone is really here today, and Xia Shande feels that today is the happiest day he has had in so many years.
…
Xia Zekai wanted to stay with these relatives for a day, but for these relatives, there were still many things waiting for them to do back home, and they couldn't worry about it at all. They chatted with Xia Shande all afternoon, and finally rushed in when the sun went down.
Before that, I took a car and left.
When bidding farewell to his three aunts, Xia Zekai could clearly feel the reluctance in his grandfather's eyes.
The old man passed the threshold of ninety years old today. There is a saying that goes, "When you are seventy, you will not stay overnight, when you are eighty, you will not stay for food, and when you are ninety, you will not stay for a seat."
For Xia Shande, every day in the future is unknown, and every day of past experience has been archived and turned into memories.
Grandpa Zhou Lin could feel the changes in the mood of his old relatives, and he couldn't care less about his exhaustion, so he had to play two games of chess with his old relatives.
Uncle, the eldest brother and the second brother's family haven't left yet.
His younger brother Xia Zejiang was not in a hurry to go back, and the two brothers helped clean up the remaining mess.
After cleaning, it was getting dark, so Luo Xiyun arranged for the nanny to cook a few simple dishes for them to eat.
We stopped drinking. The brothers talked, recalled the past, and imagined the future. Everyone felt that the future was wonderful.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when they left, and Xia Zekai told them to call him back when they got home.
His parents also helped his grandfather and grandpa go back to rest. In comparison, his grandfather and grandpa were the most tired today.
…
After mid-April, the weather slowly began to get hotter, and the whole city also became hotter.
Five days after celebrating his grandfather's 90th birthday, on April 18, his aunt's cousin Liu Guangyong called him back and told him on the phone that he had thought about it and was willing to go to Beijing to try his luck.
…
According to his eldest cousin Liu Guangyong, in order to fight for this, he suspended all his work in the Environmental Sanitation Bureau with pay, and also temporarily stopped buying insurance that he had been doing.
He has not yet completely determined to block the way out, but it is already a good change to have made this change.
At this time, Xia Zekai was not ambiguous. He said to his cousin Liu Guangyong: "Brother Yong, let me give you a phone number. Before you go to the capital, give him a call first. When you arrive, he will make arrangements for you."
Work."
"Don't worry, I believe in your ability. After you go there, learn all the functions and knowledge of this new product. If you do it well in the future, you will definitely make money." Xia Zekai said.
His confidence in his cousin mainly came from the fact that his cousin made money selling "intelligent robots" in his previous life. As for other things, Xia Zekai had no intention of studying them.
He has always believed in a saying that a man who is tortured by lack of money and poverty will always burst out with amazing energy.
This is called salted fish turning over.
It's just that his cousin is in such a state now.
It didn't take long for Xia Zekai to give Zhang Xu's mobile phone number to his cousin, and also called Zhang Xu to ask him about the current progress of 'Xiaoai Technology'. After listening to Zhang Xu's introduction
, Xia Zekai knew it in his heart.
Finally, I told Zhang Xu what his cousin Liu Guangyong was going to do.
Xia Zekai also specifically explained to Zhang Xu that there was no need to specifically arrange for his cousin Liu Guangyong to take a management position, and he could just work in the sales department.
According to Zhang Xu's understanding of the boss, he did not naively think that the boss was retreating in order to advance. He knew very well that the boss was stating a fact.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Zekai thought about the progress of Xiaoai Technology's new product that Zhang Xu had just reported to him on the phone.
His girlfriend Tang Lin couldn't stand his repeated nagging, so she finally resigned from her original company and officially joined "Jingcheng Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd."
Became a senior product appearance designer of the company.
After Tang Lin, a senior product designer, joined the company, Xiaoai Technology's progress has been particularly gratifying. I dare not say that there is a change every day, but there is indeed a clear improvement in product appearance design every once in a while.
Because of this, Zhang Xu was finally relieved that his partner had brought changes to the company and was not just messing around based on 'his connections'.
Thinking about the phone call his boss had just made, Zhang Xu was thinking that at a certain time in the future, the products of 'Xiao Ai Technology' would be put into mass production and then enter distribution. He felt that the boss was very considerate and arranged for this person to come over properly.
it's time to.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xu said to Wang Ke, Zhang Shuo, Chen Feng and others before he got off work: "Everyone has finished get off work early today, let's go celebrate together."
This time, no one shied away from it. After several twists and turns, the product ‘Xiao Ai Classmates’ invested heavily in research and development, and it took nearly a year to finally achieve initial results. At this time, we must celebrate.
After everyone on the technical development side responded, Zhang Xu went to other departments and told them one by one. Those who heard that the company wanted to treat them to a nice meal were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.
"Let's have a dinner together tonight. I also want to work overtime tonight to perfect the appearance drawing of the sixth edition." Tang Lin looked back at Zhang Xu and muttered for a while.
Zhang Xu felt particularly sorry for her: "Don't work overtime. You have to take a rest today, otherwise I will fire you."
