Chen Jianghe suddenly felt overjoyed. Although his uncle Jin Shui said he didn't care, he actually meant he had no objection. This was enough for Chen Jianghe.
So he hurriedly helped Uncle Jinshui fill up the wine. He was so excited that he spilled the wine.
Chen Jinshui said distressedly: "The tea is full of wine, but I didn't ask you to pour it so full. Aren't you wasting something? This is rice wine that I have saved for twenty years."
"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Jianghe said excitedly: "I have connections in the city. I know who has good wine, including rice wine that has been stored for fifty years. When the time comes, I will buy two jars to honor you."
Jiang Hua interrupted: "Get me two jars too."
Chen Jianghe smiled and said: "No problem, no problem, it's a piece of cake."
Jiang Hua picked up the wine bowl and toasted Chen Jinshui: "How's it going, uncle? After untying your knot, do you feel more comfortable in your heart?"
"Are you comfortable?" Chen Jinshui glanced at Chen Jianghe and said, "I can still really ignore him. When I picked him up from the snow and raised him to such a big age, he didn't call me dad, but I really When he is my son, I don't have to worry about anything."
"Yes, yes." Chen Jianghe smiled and raised Wan: "Without you worrying about it, I wouldn't be able to do it alone. You will have to take care of me in the future."
Chen Jinshui drank a bowl of wine in one gulp: "Jiang Hua is right, it's all debts to children. You often run around outside. If you meet Qiao Gu and Da Guang, let them come back. Two people wandering away also make people feel sad." Are you worried?"
Chen Jianghe nodded and said, "Okay, if we encounter them, I will bring them both back."
The village was quiet at night. As expected, Jiang Hua was knocked down by the rice wine. He was very energetic and slept all afternoon.
At this time, every household has finished dinner. This remote village still has no electricity, and there are no entertainment activities in the evening. The young people go home to have children, and the old people take advantage of the opportunity to rest and recuperate.
Jiang Hua and Chen Jianghe were sitting at the entrance of the courtyard. Chen Jianghe pointed at the dotted lights and said, "This is why we Yiwu people trade chicken feathers for sugar. We really can't survive without doing small business. We are too poor."
"In the Ming Dynasty, miners came out of Yiwu. Later, Qi Jiguang came, and Yiwu sent out good soldiers. The Qi family army, the main anti-Japanese force, were all from Yiwu. It can be seen that the people's customs are strong, but places with strong people's customs must be poor."
Chen Jianghe leaned against the door frame and said, "Brother, tell me what to do next for my sock factory. I want to make it bigger and stronger, but I've been undecided."
Jiang Hua shook his head: "It is difficult to make a sock factory bigger and stronger. Unless you have massive funds to expand production and seize the market share with lightning speed in a short period of time, it will be very difficult for the sock factory. Be bigger and stronger.”
"Why, my business is so good now. I dare say that no sock factory in the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions has better business than mine."
"The technical content is so low that anyone can enter this industry." Jiang Hua said casually, recalling an example that Chen Shouting heard about in the TV series "Dyeing House".
Jiang Hua continued: "During the Republic of China, the dyeing industry was initially regarded as a technical industry. At that time, if you opened a dyeing factory, you could be regarded as a capitalist. Later, a few landowners in the countryside could open a dyeing factory by pooling some money. Cloth factories, their costs are lower, so they have squeezed out some small dyeing factories. Why have they developed to this extent? It is because the technical content is relatively low, and the threshold for entry is also relatively low. When people have money in the future Now, a few rich people can just pool some money and buy a few machines to build a sock factory. You can imagine how fierce the competition will be by then."
Chen Jianghe closed his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "I'm not willing to accept it. I've put a lot of effort into this sock factory. Is there no possibility of saving it?"
"Your sock factory can be big, but it can't be strong. It can make you worth millions. But it can only stop there."
Chen Jianghe said sadly: "In order to contract this factory and to produce the current glass socks, I invested a lot of effort and finally revitalized the factory, but you cruelly told me that this is the future of this factory. "
"There are many loopholes in the factory you contracted, didn't you find out?"
Chen Jianghe immediately asked: "What loophole?"
"The factory is a collective enterprise contracted by you. To be honest, sometimes the collective sees that you are making money and doesn't want to contract to you. If you terminate the contract in advance, there is nothing you can do." Jiang Hua raised two fingers and said: "One more, You are starting to feel complacent about producing glass socks. To be honest, are glass socks really good?”
Chen Jianghe said anxiously: "What's wrong? Glass socks are now the most popular on the market."
"Are they comfortable?" Jiang Hua asked, "Didn't you wear them yourself? I tried it, and it was uncomfortable. My feet felt uncomfortable when they sweated, and my socks usually like to slide down. That is to say, people don't know much now, so they think this The stuff is very trendy. Once people open up their horizons, glass socks will be quickly abandoned.”
Chen Jianghe is also aware of these problems, but he feels that it is popular in the market now. The so-called white mask covers all ugliness. This popular trend is enough to offset other shortcomings.
"Then what do you think I should do with this sock factory?"
Jiang Hua shook his head and said: "Don't regard it as your lifelong career. This is a starting point for your career, a stepping stone. Use this sock factory to accumulate the first pot of gold for your future career. When the time is right, get out quickly. leave."
Chen Jianghe was completely silent. This was his first career after all, and it was as unforgettable as his first love. He would never leave Luo Yuzhu, and the same was true for this career.
After a long while, Chen Jianghe said hoarsely: "I will think about it carefully, brother."
"Be happy, don't be so depressed." Jiang Hua persuaded: "I know it's very difficult for you to give up your first career, but today, at least you and your first love can finally get married. Isn't this a happy ending? Isn’t it a happy thing?”
"Brother, everything you said is right. It's just that you suddenly mention me like this. I can't accept it psychologically. Give me some time to get used to it. After all, this sock factory can't be compared with Yuzhu."
"That's right if you think so. In business matters, you have to know how to make trade-offs. Only by giving up can you gain. When you have nothing to do, you can also read traditional classics such as Doctrine of the Mean and the Book of Changes. The principles in these books are better than those about management. The knowledge you learn should be useful.”
"Brother, my educational level is close to illiterate. Can I understand these books you told me about?"
"How can you be an entrepreneur if you are not willing to put in this hard work?"
