"Cousin, you are brave and resourceful, and you have been in society for so many years. If you stretch your legs, there will be people who are willing to shine your shoes. Even if you don't work as a security captain in the future, you can find them in any factory. A leader’s errand is something we can’t catch even on a bicycle.”
"You kid, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, you are becoming more and more eloquent." Zhang Dingshan's face suddenly filled with pride.
"I'm telling the truth, cousin. It's dinner time. If you don't mind, I'll invite you to the restaurant. We can order some good dishes and have a good chat."
"Okay, let's have a good chat, there happens to be a mutton shabu-shabu restaurant across the street!"
Zhao Shanhe nodded in agreement and followed Zhang Dingshan to the mutton restaurant. Looking at the restaurant's sign, he knew that the prices were not cheap.
He fully understood in his heart that Zhang Dingshan was an old man, and now that he was treating guests to dinner, he would naturally give them a good meal!
Two people, Zhang Dingshan ordered five kilograms of mutton slices.
A plate of peanuts and two plates of cold vegetables.
Plus a bottle of Laojiao wine.
Just five pounds of mutton slices costs more than ten yuan, which is half a month's salary of a working-class family.
Zhao Shanhe took a wine bottle and poured a glass of wine for Zhang Dingshan. Zhang Dingshan leaned back in his chair with an air of pride and accepted it completely.
After drinking the wine, Zhao Shanhe only ate two chopsticks of the five kilograms of mutton, and the rest went into Zhang Dingshan's stomach.
Zhao Shanhe saw that the atmosphere was almost good, and Zhang Dingshan was also drunk, so he quickly took the opportunity to say: "Cousin, I really have to trouble you with something today."
"Why is our relationship so troublesome? Just tell me!" Zhang Dingshan was so dizzy after drinking that his mouth was no longer under the control of his brain.
"You said before that the department store market was going to be dismantled and reorganized. Thinking of what you said inside the market, cousin, could you help me get a shop stall?"
"You are really getting more and more like a monkey. It turns out that you are waiting for me here when you give me gifts and invite me to dinner. Okay, for the sake of the mutton soup tonight, I will tell you the truth. "Zhang Dingshan was drunk, and Zhao Shanhe was trying to please him with gifts and flattery, so he had already let down his guard against him.
"If I had said this in the past, I definitely couldn't tell you that you were so poor before. When I saw you, I really wanted to hide away because I was afraid that you would let me borrow money. Now you are different. I started a small business and got rich. You gave me gifts and invited me to dinner. I don’t care about you and Su Wan’s face, but also for the sake of the pile of things you sent me. Tell me how deep the water in this department store market is!"
"I have a good relationship with a leader of the department store market. According to his words, this department store market is going to change. It needs to be restructured from scratch. In the past, all the stalls in this department store, big and small, were owned by the public. But now it will be different. This stall will be If you sell it to private individuals by drawing lots, as long as you can get a stall in this market, no one will care whether you sell clothes, shoes, or vegetables."
"But the water here is very muddy. On the surface, it is said that you are drawing lots to buy a stall. The comparison is still about who has the strength, money and connections. You will definitely get the best stall. It doesn't matter if you have money. If you are willing to smash it hard You can get money from this stall, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t have money..."
Zhang Dingshan's last words were clearly meant for Zhao Shanhe.
"Brother Shanhe, listen to me, we don't have the strength, so don't be so high-spirited. Don't end up in vain!"
Zhang Dingshan's words somewhat looked down on Zhao Shanhe, thinking that he was a skinny donkey with a tough shit.
It's hard to hear, but it's the same way in this world.
They say that if you have money, you can travel all over the world, but if you don’t have money, it will be difficult to move forward. But in reality, you must not only have money, but also have connections, and the connections must be strong enough.
I don’t know how many people are staring at the reform of state-owned enterprises and trying to get a few bucks to spend, but this money is not something ordinary people can make. This department store looks like a place for selling things, but there is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and there is a lot of confusion between people. Relations extend in all directions.
The owner of this stall is not the brother-in-law of the market leader.
It was the stall owner who was the concubine of the market leader.
It would be even harder to get a stall from these connected households.
"Cousin, who has the right to draw lots to rectify the stall?"
This road was blocked, so Zhao Shanhe took another route. If he didn't have money, he would make money. If he didn't have connections, he would create connections.
A person can still choke to death by urinating while he is still alive!
"In the hands of Liu Changjiang, the section chief who specializes in market economy." Zhang Dingshan felt that Zhao Shanhe was overestimating his capabilities.
Who is this Liu Changjiang? Apart from a few upper-level leaders of the department store market, he has the final say in the entire market. He has the power in his hands, and now he has to be in charge of the sales and distribution of this stall. It is even more amazing. Wherever he goes , all surrounded by a bunch of flatterers.
"If you really want to enter the department store market, you must first get through to Liu Changjiang. Others are just talking nonsense. It only depends on Liu Changjiang to give this stall to someone. But the threshold is high, so you may not be able to succeed."
Zhang Dingshan looked at Zhao Shanhe and shook his head.
There are countless powerful people in Nancheng who want to set up a stall in the department store market. Zhao Shanhe, a powerless and moneyless pawn, can't even look down on him, let alone a big shot like Liu Changjiang.
"Okay, thank you cousin for teaching me today."
Zhao Shanhe paid the bill, washed the pot and ate it for 16.5 yuan.
On the way home from the mutton restaurant, Zhao Shanhe kept thinking about it.
When it comes to business matters, he is well versed in everything.
Liu Changjiang, the section chief of the department store market, must be an old man. Now that the power of life and death in the market stalls is in his hands, Zhao Shanhe does not believe that Liu Changjiang will not make any profit from it.
As long as he sees benefits, he will have an opportunity.
The so-called connections are nothing more than a network of relationships built on financial interests.
The first step is to enter the department store market and occupy a place. Networking and capital are indispensable. Only with these two things can we have the foundation to gain a firm foothold.
If a little spider wants to climb to a high place, it must first weave a huge web.
So do people!
Making enough money is the most important thing!
The family home of the steel factory could no longer satisfy Zhao Shanhe. When Zhao Sanqi came to the city to deliver goods, Zhao Shanhe made clear his next plan with him.
"Brother Sanqi, you don't have to go to the city to deliver goods anymore. I plan to drive a tricycle with Haozi to your village to collect the goods in person. The collected mountain goods will be paid directly to the villagers. In this way, I can collect more goods. , the folks can also earn more.”
After hearing this, Zhao Sanqi panicked instantly.
This was tantamount to smashing the bowl he was eating from. Since he helped Zhao Shanhe collect goods in the village, he has made a lot of money. That was money that he could not earn from selling mountain goods for a year before.
"Brother Zhao, please take pity on me. Don't let me do it."
