"Okay, then let's give it 0.2%. This way Yanhua will feel more balanced. After all, she got 100,000 shares raised by others without paying any money."
"In this case, if Wang Shan's payment is added, we will round it up to 81,000, and the difference of 39,000 will have to be raised. Brother, don't go back tonight. Let's go to the wholesale market to meet with Boss Chen tomorrow."
"Can I mention the shares to Boss Chen and Boss Zhou?"
"Yes, if they want the same shares as Wang Shan."
"What about if it's not enough?"
"We will round up to the nearest 40,000 when we start the meeting."
"Okay, it's settled."
After settling the contract payment matter, the two felt greatly relaxed. After dinner, I went to bed early and slept very soundly at night.
In the morning, the head of Shitou Village came to deliver water early in the morning. After unloading, the two took the second donkey cart to carry water into the city and hitched a ride across Yantan. Yang Liufang originally wanted to find Uncle Han, the vegetable farmer, but he couldn't stay and borrow money. With Qian's impression, they took the bus directly into the city. The two of them went straight to the wholesale market and went to Boss Chen's shop first.
"Brother Chen, we are here again."
"Hey, you brothers will definitely do something good when you come here."
"Oh! I don't know if it counts."
"Brother Chen, are we going to trouble you to give you a meeting again?"
"What, do you want to expand the scale again? Factory or supply and marketing cooperative?"
"Supply and Marketing Cooperative."
"Will the supply and marketing cooperative be contracted again?"
"Well, during the recent rush to buy, some of the original contractors were terminated because they participated in price gouging. The province recently issued a document requiring the liquidation of fixed assets, so the supply and marketing cooperative must continue to give priority to internal personnel for contracting the currently vacant counters. "
"Oh, how big is the party this time?"
"39,000."
"Originally we were going to hold a conference, but the difference was about 90,000, but the workers in the factory have already raised part of the funds, and the staff of the supply and marketing cooperative participated in part of the shares. Now we only need 39,000." Li Tongfu intervened at the right time and raised the issue of equity participation.
"Participate in shares? How?"
"The internal price of the supply and marketing cooperative is 20,000, 0.2%."
"Can I?"
"Do you also want to participate in the stock?"
"Of course. I'm a shop owner. Of course I'm willing. I wanted to bring it up last time because I was afraid you wouldn't agree. Besides, I've never seen you run a shop before and I'm afraid you'll mess it up. Now I see that you're doing well. I have What are you worried about?"
"Then how much do you take?"
"The remaining 39,000, which is 0.39%, I've rounded up."
"No, the staff of the supply and marketing cooperative are involved in the operation. If you want to participate in the stock, it is a dry stock, so we need more." Li Tongfu acted according to the situation and added.
"Brother, that's it." Boss Chen looked around at the two of them.
"Brother Chen, I guess it won't work. The staff will have objections to this."
"That's 40,000, 0.39%."
"50,000."
"45,000. I can only pay so much. If possible, I will withdraw the money now."
"It really doesn't work, Brother Chen, the deal is 50,000. Let's go and draw up a contract."
"Okay. Leave one of you to look after the store for me."
The three of them had just finished talking when Boss Zhou heard that they were coming and walked over from the stall.
"Hey, now that the business of these two brothers has grown, they don't come to see me anymore. Are you plotting something good? Anyone who sees it has a share."
"It's okay."
"Is it really okay?"
"Lao Zhou, that's right. Originally, they would expand the counter contracting of supply and marketing cooperatives. Now I have decided to take a stake in their hardware store."
"How to participate? Everyone who meets you has a share, and I must also participate."
"Brother Zhou, I'm so sorry. The remaining brother Chen is covered."
"Old Chen, it's really not fun. I can't do good things without distinguishing them."
"They gave me so little that I really couldn't tell the difference."
"Then you two have to give it to me equally. I want as much as Lao Chen."
"Brother Zhou, we don't need that much money."
"I don't care. Otherwise I will keep you here and eat and drink until you agree."
"There's no such thing as cheating. Lao Zhou, this is not good." Boss Chen got the benefit and began to make peace with him.
"The money is good. Do you want to show off your face?" Boss Zhou decided to stalk him in order to participate in the stock.
In order to make money, you can be thick-skinned. This is the unique "Wenzhou business culture". Everyone, like Boss Zhou, thinks that you lose face if you can't make money, but if you can make money, let alone stalking Yang Liufang, Li Tongfu and the others at all costs, even if you go to the toilet or shine your shoes, you won't lose face. In particular, the Wenzhou businessmen who made their mark in the early days supported themselves by cleaning toilets and shining shoes. This kind of "facelessness and shamelessness" enabled them to support themselves. They also accumulated funds by shining shoes and cleaning toilets, laying the foundation for future development.
"Brother, what do you think we should do?" Yang Liufang couldn't shirk it, so he had to ask Li Tongfu for help.
"Brother, if it doesn't work, let's accept it and see how the money raised is used."
"Right, it would be great to be like this earlier. How old are you, Old Chen?"
"50,000, 0.39%. Not involved in business operations."
"Go and draft the contract, Lao Chen. I'll go over and explain, and I'll go get the money with you." He left them and immediately returned to his stall. Once Wenzhou businessmen reach a cooperation, they will strike while the iron is hot and act resolutely without any nonsense. Li Tongfu stayed to look after the store, while Yang Liufang went to draft and print the contract.
Half an hour later, everyone gathered in Boss Chen's store again. Pay the payment and sign the contract. Boss Zhou went to the store to find a bag, put 100,000 yuan in it for them, and asked them to go to supply and sell social money immediately to avoid long nights and dreams. After all, it was a huge sum of money. To be on the safe side, Yang Liufang asked Li Tongfu to find Zhang Feng and drive them there. On the way, he went to the bank to deposit the extra money.
Soon they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative. Wang Shan and Yanhua did not expect that they could collect enough money so quickly. Wang Shan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot when he saw it.
"Afu, it's about (my) business."
"Third brother, I understand. The money is enough now. But it can be absorbed. This is the newly signed shareholding contract. Take a look."
"Ah, so many?"
"It's going to be less." Li Tongfu said proudly.
"How much? Let me see." Wang Yanhua also grabbed the contract to read it. "Oh my God, so much. Then are my shares worth almost 160,000?"
"yes."
"Yanhua, don't make trouble, but (I) don't have that much money! So, Ah Fu, I'll take the afternoon off, so I have to go raise money."
"Third brother, don't worry, listen to what I tell you. You get 20,000, because you are a staff member participating in the operation, and my brother and I plan to give you 0.2%. You just need to pay Brother Afu and sign the contract tomorrow. Sister-in-law Yanhua, let’s go through the formalities.”
Li Tongfu and Yang Liufang followed Yanhua to the Finance Office of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative to handle the leasing and delivery procedures. An hour later, the three of them came out with a contract stamped with a red seal from the Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative. With this contract, the three groups of the hardware store department had a total of nine sections. The counter belongs to them, which means that half of the original hardware sales department of the supply and marketing cooperative has been leased by them.
Looking at a row of counters nearly 20 meters long, it is a spectacular sight. Yang Liufang, accompanied by Li Tongfu, walked back and forth twice, silently thinking about how to make reasonable use of these venues. Finally, it was decided that the furniture would be sold open in the middle, with hardware and building materials at both ends. After adding counters, each area would form an L shape. Now that independent areas have been formed, the three areas must be re-listed. After repeated discussions among four people, they were called "Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative Hardware Hall", "Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative Furniture Hall", and "Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative Building Materials Hall". The three are reasonably allocated. Yanhua manages the hardware hall as the manager of the hardware hall, Wang Shan manages the building materials hall as the manager of the building materials department, and Li Tongfu is the general manager here. While managing the furniture hall, he also serves as a mobile worker to assist the two in selling hardware and building materials.
Yang Liufang opened the bill of materials for the new counter and requested that the funds be paid out of the share capital that Wang Shan would hand over tomorrow. At the same time, the purchase of building materials would also be paid out of this amount. He invited everyone to have dinner together to celebrate in the evening.
When it was almost time to get off work, Qin Jiajun came to pick up Yanhua, and Yang Liufang explained the matter. The five of them went to Beiguan to find a restaurant to have a feast, and they did not forget to invite Yinhua to join them. That night they asked for ten kilograms of handcuffs, and Yang Liufang got himself drunk for the first time in history. According to Li Tongfu and others who had dinner together, Yang Liufang absurdly climbed onto the dining table with a wine bottle in his arms after being drunk. Several people could not pull him down. He knelt on the table, shirtless, drinking wine, crying and howling. Singing a song I learned from the radio:
My family lives in Loess Gaopo
Strong wind blows from the slope
Whether it's northwest wind or southeast wind
They are all my songs, my songs
My family lives in Loess Gaopo
Strong wind blows from the slope
Whether it's northwest wind or southeast wind
They are all my songs, my songs
My family lives in Loess Gaopo
The sun passes over the slope
Follow my cave dwelling
sunbathing my arms
And my cow follows me
...
So much so that after singing, I vomited all over the table and all over the floor. After vomiting, I cried while singing, sometimes laughing, and went crazy and indulged myself.
