"Try this one, okay, it looks good."
"Buy three sets of sheets and quilts."
Guan Jinyue finished the exam and her scores came out. There was no doubt that she ranked first in the school year, with a gap of thirty points between the second place.
This year, the final exam for the sophomore year of No. 2 Middle School is the same as that of No. 1 Middle School. Guan Jinyue’s score this time is better than that of No. 1 Middle School. Judging from the established fact that she has never been ranked first in the city’s first-level college entrance examination in the past years, it is equivalent to saying that she already has it. The strength of the top scorer in the municipal college entrance examination.
Zhou Xinglian took Guan Jinyue shopping, and Wei Tao, as the driver and bag-carrying boy, plus the person who paid for the wrongdoer, wandered behind the two of them, praising them all the way and then settling the accounts.
Including the time before his rebirth, it may be twenty years of memory. Wei Tao still clearly remembers that on his birthday in the sixth grade of elementary school, his mother took him out to buy a pair of Li Ning sneakers and a pair of jeans. Since childhood, he had basically picked up the leftover toys from his cousin Zhao Kai's play. Standing in front of a toy stall, Zhou Xinglian saw her son like this and secretly gritted her teeth and let her son choose.
As a result, the mother and son watched for a long time, but they didn't know what toy to buy. Wei Tao liked many toys, but they had never bought one in terms of price and didn't know whether they were expensive or not. I still remember that I met my cousin Zhao Kai who was playing with his classmates, and asked him to help him choose. After spending thirty yuan, Wei Tao got his first large-scale toy in the real sense of his life - a Plastic Transformers.
Zhou Xinglian once lamented that her children had not enjoyed any blessings since they were young.
Wei Tao has a deep memory in his heart, not as a toy, but as a person who was short of money and had no money. Later, when he came back after making money in other places, he would drag his mother to the streets every time. Because in his impression, ever since he 'picked up' other people's clothes that didn't fit and his mother began to need to buy new clothes for herself, she didn't seem to have bought any clothes except for hard needs.
Check it out, try it on, fit it, simply negotiate the price, pay the money, and buy it.
Wei Tao was happy from the bottom of his heart when he spent such money. One set, two sets, three sets, and four pairs of shoes.
After Guan Jinyue got a set of clothes, she went shopping with Zhou Xinglian with peace of mind. She did not reject that set of clothes. After buying it, she did not try on any other clothes. She only followed Zhou Xinglian to the stalls and stalls that suited her. Look at the clothes in the store.
Zhou Xinglian was in a good mood all morning, even though she kept saying don't spend money carelessly, but when her son paid for her clothes and heard the salesperson's praise, he smiled brightly, and at first he kept smiling. He was polite, but later he simply smiled and accepted it happily.
Traveling south to purchase goods is tiring both physically and mentally.
In my hometown, I have to break through the tight siege and win a piece of the world, which is tiring both physically and mentally.
Unlike others, who felt comfortable after becoming a master, Wei Tao didn't feel tired at all when he saw his mother's happiness from the inside out. Instead, he felt full of motivation filling his body.
I bought some beef and mutton slices and went back to the store to make hot pot. I washed whatever vegetables and other things I wanted to eat directly in the store.
In the afternoon, Wei Tao sent his mother and Guan Jinyue home and asked his mother to take a nap. He would wait until he came back from the countryside to purchase goods in the afternoon before picking her up.
He is letting his mother adapt to the rhythm of not having to be busy working in the store all day long. Now that she has money in her pocket, making money is not about letting money make money, but letting money change your material life and put you in a state of increasing comfort and experience. among.
The Pang family and their daughter cherish this job very much. No matter who the boss is, Zhou Xinglian can rest assured that they can watch the store for a while even when Zhou Xinglian is not in the store. Being able to go home and lie down and sleep comfortably is certainly more comfortable than sleeping in a store where customers come and go from time to time.
Guan Jinyue put on old clothes and went to the countryside with Wei Tao to collect vegetables. He did not refuse. Studying every day was not an issue. Besides, she still had nearly ten months to study questions and consolidate. Guan Jinyue had no intention of relaxing. , it was he who always asked him to take a vacation for himself.
"I have helped farm this family's land."
"It's winter and I'm helping to tie corn stalks. I've been to all these villages."
Guan Jinyue is not reminiscing about her own suffering. Wei Tao can understand that this is her way of release. There are too many things squeezed in her heart. The warmth that her mother and son can bring to her is only an insignificant part. The world is like purgatory. , there is warmth in purgatory, that’s all.
She will dominate her world. She will look down at purgatory, look up at the world, and look up at heaven. That is up to her.
"Help me give my advice, if you were them, what would you do? And what should I fail to do when integrating resources?" Wei Tao told her about the integration of 'Fresh Times' while driving. He had once or twice had conversations with Guan Jinyue about literary youths who were not in line with his real age but were in line with their age. It was certain that he was young and immature, but it was also an indisputable fact that Guan Jinyue had a good brain. She had never really worked hard in society but for Having struggled for life, you may have a different opinion. Wei Tao also has a lot of problems. There are not many people who can be trusted to talk about this, so it is good to listen.
When we go to a farmer’s house to receive goods, we don’t discuss it anymore.
When driving to the car of the next house, they continued talking until Wei Tao had finished speaking. Guan Jinyue was silent for a long time. It was not until the way back that she tried to say: "If this is your only way, then I don't recommend you. Learn from Liu Dalong's decisive and ruthless handling methods, you can be more gentle, open a store, recruit franchisees, and cooperate, but they are just a bunch of people, the supply of goods is in your hands, and when you really don't want to give it to them, there is not enough goods. It is enough for everyone to be satisfied with this reason.”
Wei Tao frowned slightly: "You mean I have to be careful about Liu Dalong?"
Guan Jinyue shook her head: "I don't know, I haven't been in contact with it, I don't dare to guess, and I don't understand things in the business world. I just think that if I hold a knife in my hand, when is the best time to use it? It makes perfect sense.”
Wei Tao parked the car on the side of the road, lit a cigarette, put the car seat down at a 45-degree angle, squinted his eyes and smoked for a long time without saying anything. He was not affected by Guan Jinyue's words, but the other person's words and what he felt in his heart. If there is a certain point in his idea, let him seriously consider it.
"What if I have more than one knife in my hand?"
Guan Jinyue looked sideways at him, their eyes facing each other. She saw the confidence, so she smiled: "Then you can play whatever you want, just throw the knife if you want."
Wei Tao smiled, maybe he was a villain, Liu Dalong and Liu Lei were really good to him. Anyway, it is always good to have a back-up plan, and the back-up plan that he can arrange will not hurt the other party. of.
After returning the vegetables grown in the rural garden to the store on Anshun Street, Wei Tao drove to the mobile phone street in the city center.
No, this is the mobile phone street in the future. At present, it is still a block adjacent to department stores, urban old theaters, and urban underground shopping malls. There are some shops, including several communication mobile phone sales and repairs. There is China Unicom Mobile Business Hall in The scale here is not small, and the overall scale has not yet completely reached the scale of a mobile phone street.
Wei Tao parked his car on the steps on the side of the road, got out of the car and sat astride the back seat of a bicycle that was locked and parked on the side of the road and he didn't know the owner of the bicycle. He lit a cigarette and sold popsicles from the bicycle next to him. I bought a bottle of iced black tea from the old lady. I smoked and drank tea while observing the intersection.
He is very clear about the prosperity of this street in the future. The old theater next to it has been renovated into an electronic products mall. This street that crosses the main street has become a mobile phone street, extending for nearly one stop, with both sides lined with mobile phones. Mobile phone shops even extend to the nearby side streets, which are full of shops selling mobile phones and repairing and selling second-hand mobile phones.
He took out his mobile phone and called his cousin Zhao Kai, who works at Dongchen Mobile: "Hello, brother."
The two brothers have had a good relationship since childhood. The honest and honest cousin has always taken good care of his six-year-old brother. When he was a child, he would give flowers to Wei Tao, who was in a poor family, and would take him to his home for ten days every summer when he was in elementary school. Half a month later, although the two cities were separated by work and the two cities had less contact, they still shared some of the same hobbies, common language, and affection.
After chatting randomly for a few minutes, Wei Tao got down to business: "Brother, when can I be transferred back to Songjiang?"
"That's terrible. What's going on? Is something wrong?"
"I want to open a mobile phone store. Rent, cost and labor are not a problem. I wonder if you have any acquaintances in this industry at home? The office director or business manager of a big manufacturer would be fine, or a big distributor here. An acquaintance like the store manager of the merchant or the like can be a middleman. I know them personally."
"Is this... um... urgent?"
"I'm not in a hurry. I want to explore the way and get to know people in the industry first. I feel that mobile phones are now becoming a must-have tool for everyone. Sales of new mobile phones, repairs of second-hand mobile phones, and acquisition, refurbishment and resale are all very good. "
"Then don't worry. I'll check with my acquaintances for you these days. It's common for manufacturers to move their business across cities. It shouldn't be difficult to find someone you know."
"Okay, don't worry, I just have this idea in my heart."
After hanging up the phone, Wei Tao threw the empty bottle of iced tea into the trash can and started shopping in the still-unformed mobile phone street. His phone recorded all the words marked with what only he could understand. Note the phone number. If you are not in a hurry, the first step is to see if you can find a front-end house with a suitable price and a great location.
