He had been frugally saving for more than two years, and had only saved a little over 10,000 in total. If he had saved the 80,000, it would have taken him 16 more years?
Xia Zekai remembered something again. He said with a smile: "There is no way. Doing it yourself means making money in every aspect, and this is only part of it. I also bought two garages as warehouses later, specifically for storing milk powder and eggs.
That kind of thing."
After hearing what he mentioned, Zhao Yan, Zhao Ting and Qi Lixin scanned around and found that there was indeed nothing like what Brother Kai just said.
Xia Zekai continued: "These two garages alone cost me 70,000 yuan!"
"At least 150,000!" Zhao Ting was speechless.
What kind of concept is this? According to Century Garden, the most expensive community in Qicheng, the house price per square meter is as high as 4,000. A house of 100 square meters is 400,000. According to a 30% down payment, it is only 120,000!
This money can be used to buy a house in the most expensive community in the city without any difficulty, but my cousin threw it away on investment.
…
Yulon Hotel is the largest hotel in Qiyun Garden Community and Lin'ao Community besides the Oasis Ecological Park. After coming out of the hotel, Xia Zekai came here directly with his family.
After asking for a room and the whole family sat down, Xia Zekai picked up the menu book from the turntable table and handed it to Qi Lixin: "Old Qi, you are the only one among us who is an experienced chef. Come on, order a few.
It’s a special dish, how about trying it made here?”
"Brother Kai, you're too polite, just order." Qi Lixin gave way and was about to push the menu back as he spoke.
Xia Zekai turned around and placed it in front of his cousin Zhao Yan: "Yanyan, Lao Qi is not serious. Please order some food you like, but don't be polite to your brother."
"Brother Ting, please order some of your favorite dishes. We are all a family, so don't be polite when you come to my place." Xia Zekai's tone was firm.
While the Zhao Yan siblings were ordering, Xia Zekai asked them: "Which one should I drink, white wine or beer?"
Qi Lixin waved his hand: "Brother Kai, I won't drink anymore. I have to go to the store to open the door in the afternoon."
"Oh, it's business to open the door to make money. Drinking can easily ruin things. I won't advise you anymore. Zhao Ting, why don't you go in the afternoon and we two brothers will eat together?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Zhao Ting liked to drink two drinks, so he agreed without hesitation.
Xia Zekai went outside to get a bottle of Liquor, and brought back a box of Green Lansha. He said, "Brother, let's finish this bottle of white wine later, and then drink a few bottles of beer to wake up."
"
There's nothing wrong with that.
Luo Xiyun was discussing with Zhao Yan how to raise children. When she heard what he said, she was very disdainful: "Zekai, you are a bit worried. Don't let me take you back later."
"That's definitely not possible. Don't worry, wife!" Xia Zekai almost slapped his chest to confirm.
Luo Xiyun stopped caring about him.
She finally added a few more hard dishes, and while waiting for the food to be served in the hotel, Xia Zekai asked about his cousin's current situation.
Zhao Ting did not show off his reserve and pride this time, and said directly: "Brother, I just found a job as a courier at YTO Express, sending and receiving parcels, with a basic salary of 800 plus commission. I think it's okay, and I plan to try it first.
Say it again."
"Well, the basic salary is almost the same when doing business. It doesn't make much sense to have more than one or two hundred. The main thing is to rely on commission." Xia Zekai's words were rough and unreasonable.
Zhao Ting nodded: "I think so too. Yuantong Express told me that as long as you are willing to endure hardships, it is easy to earn four or five thousand a month, and you can earn more than ten thousand if you grit your teeth. My plan for myself is that I will not be able to earn more than ten thousand a month as long as I am willing to endure hardships."
If you want to make a lot of money, you need to figure out the way first, and then look for opportunities later..."
Xia Zekai nodded: "Well, you have thought well and safely, but express delivery cannot be done blindly. You have to find the right position."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Ting pretended to listen carefully and wanted to see if his cousin had any useful information.
Qi Lixin stopped drinking water and listened quietly. Luo Xiyun and Zhao Yan stopped talking, wanting to hear what Xia Zekai had to say.
Only the girl was left in the room, and the three children, Tongtong, Qi Xiaomeng, were chattering there.
Xia Zekai calmed down for a while and said, "Brother, do you know Taobao?"
Zhao Ting nodded: "I know, I also bought clothes online."
"How did you get those clothes?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Zhao Ting said without even thinking: "Of course it's express delivery..."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Ting suddenly realized and seemed to understand something.
He quickly asked Xia Zekai: "Brother Kai, do you mean that I can specifically target express delivery orders for online shopping in the future?"
Just at this time, the waiter served the food, and Xia Zekai stopped talking at the right moment.
Zhao Ting really wanted to kick all these waiters out. After they finished serving the food and went out, Xia Zekai continued: "Brother, what's the use of just targeting those express delivery orders for online shopping?"
"I want you to develop online merchants. They do a good job and have very large sales volume. Dozens or hundreds of orders a day are not a problem. If someone gets up later, hundreds of orders a day are normal.
At that time, you can just drive to pick up the items in the afternoon," Xia Zekai said.
Zhao Ting was thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and Xia Zekai continued: "In my opinion, online shopping will become a major consumer trend in the future, and there will be more and more online shopping orders. I remember that your Yuantong is a slicing company, right?
If you can develop a few such customers in your area, then you don't have to work hard to make zero orders in the future, you can just maintain these customers, understand?"
"Understood!" Zhao Ting nodded heavily.
Brother Kai took out the valuable information and shared it with his brother-in-law in a serious manner. Qi Lixin felt very touched. He thought of the night when Brother Kai chatted with him, and became a little excited. He opened the liquor at the right time and said goodbye.
He poured a cup for Xia Zekai and his brother-in-law Zhao Ting, then poured another cup for himself and said, "Ting, why don't you hurry up and give Brother Kai a toast!"
Then he looked directly into Xia Zekai's eyes and said, "Brother Kai, I won't go to the store today. We won't come back until we get drunk!"
Xia Zekai's lips parted when he smiled, and he said: "Where do we brothers come from to be so particular about it? Making money is the serious thing."
"That won't work. You can make money anytime."
"Brother Kai, there is a saying that it is difficult for those who don't know how to do it, but it is not difficult for those who can. I don't think it matters what you just said to Zhao Ting, but in my opinion, they are all real money. Anyone else can do it casually.
Tell us this." Qi Lixin was persistent.
Zhao Ting also came to his senses and quickly picked up the wine glass: "Yes, brother-in-law is right, I will drink half of it, Brother Kai is free to do as he pleases."
He actually drank half of it. Xia Zekai had a good drinking capacity, so he also drank half of it. He choked and kept covering his mouth and coughing. After eating a few mouthfuls of food, he regained his composure.
Then Qi Lixin also became bored for half the time.
