After the first weekly exam, Xiao Ming's score was temporarily ranked 10th from the bottom.
He took this result very seriously, after all, he had only studied hard for a few days.
At the water company, 70% of the project payment has been received, and the remaining 27% cannot be paid until the project is accepted or audited.
You may ask, what about the other 3%? This part belongs to the project warranty, and Party A will not pay it until 2 to 3 years after the completion of the project, no quality problems are found in the project, there is no warranty, or Xiao Ming organizes personnel to repair it.
On weekends, at 9:00 a.m., Xiao Ming sneaked out of school and contacted Dao Scar: "Brother Scar, congratulations on getting rich! Come here, I'll wait for you at the gate of No. 1 Middle School. We'll go get the money together and pay the labor fee first. "
Scar was on the other end of the phone, lazily answering the call. When he heard Xiao Ming talking about sending money, he said energetically: "Okay, then you wait for me, I will be there in ten minutes."
Before Xiao Ming could continue to speak, he hung up the phone.
Xiao Ming shook his head. He contacted the three foremen last night and asked them to go to Chunfeng Tea House to get money at ten o'clock this morning.
He wanted to pay all the labor costs in front of Scar.
His work style is that he would rather go hungry and pay for materials on credit, while labor costs must be settled first.
After a while, Scar arrived.
Xiao Ming greeted Scar and said as he got in the car: "Take me to China Construction Bank to withdraw the money first. I have made an appointment with them to be at Chunfeng Teahouse at ten o'clock."
Scar smiled and said, "Just sit down and fasten your seat belt first."
In the bank, the customer service manager received them warmly, and the entire withdrawal process did not take more than 20 minutes.
In the teahouse, Lao Zhang, Lao He, and Lao Wang had already ordered tea and were waiting for them.
After a brief greeting, Xiao Ming put the bag with money directly on the table and said with a smile: "Old Zhang, you are the hardest worker, so you come first."
After speaking, he personally counted out 38,000 yuan and handed it to Lao Zhang: "Thank you for your hard work last week! This is the hard-earned money that belongs to you and your brothers."
Lao Zhang still had the same expression, nodded, and said in a sullen voice: "Okay, then I'll count!"
Lao Zhang also had to be cautious. After all, he was not only representing himself, but there were dozens of brothers waiting for him with their families behind him.
Xiao Ming glanced at him, lowered his head and counted 55,000 yuan again, and handed it to Lao He with a smile: "Here, count it too, see if it's right!"
"Okay, let me count them too. After all, this is not mine alone!" Lao He said with a smile on his face.
Xiao Ming nodded and was about to count the money to Lao Wang. He glanced at Lao Wang like Zhu Bajie seeing a beautiful woman. He stood up and rubbed his hands anxiously.
Xiao Ming said to Lao Wang: "Lao Wang, don't be impatient. Just calm down and sit down. It's your turn soon!"
Lao Wang smiled awkwardly and sat down again.
Xiao Ming counted out 42,000 yuan and put it on the table, then pushed it directly in front of Lao Wang: "Hurry up and count it to see if the number is correct."
Lao Wang stood up nervously, held the money in his lap, and slowly counted them one by one.
This time, Zeng Yiming spent a total of 135,000 yuan in labor costs. Of the 420,000 yuan he received, there was still 272,000 yuan left, and he paid 13,000 yuan in taxes.
Xiao Ming looked at the three of them happily counting money, and had a vague thought in his heart.
After they finished counting, he smiled at Scar and said, "Brother Scar, go buy me a pack of cigarettes from Hongta Mountain! It's not easy for the three of them. They can't stop smoking and give out a bunch of cigarettes when they come, right?" "
Scar felt a little baffled when he heard what he said, but in the end he nodded, got up and left to buy cigarettes.
After Xiao Ming saw Scar leaving, he turned to the three of them and said, "How are you doing recently? Do you have a lot of work?"
Lao Wang chuckled and said: "One day in the east and one day in the west, it's not too bad!"
Lao He and Lao Zhang also nodded and agreed with Lao Wang's statement.
Xiao Ming heard what he said and asked tentatively: "Have you ever thought about finding a regular company and working with the company with peace of mind?"
Lao He glared at Lao Wang who was trying to steal the conversation again. He sighed: "I definitely want to, even in my dreams, but we have no way out!"
Xiao Ming raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said softly: "I have a company here. They should be eager to recruit people. Are you willing to go?"
Lao Wang chuckled and said: "Boss Zeng, you have more connections. Tell us quickly, which one is it?"
Xiao Ming estimated the time and saw that Scar was coming back soon. He didn't hide it anymore. While writing the phone number on the paper, he said: "Go to the former No. 3 Company and find Mr. Luo of the engineering company. Say I asked you to go."
After he finished speaking and writing his phone number, he handed it to them: "This is his phone number. You can negotiate it yourself. Businesses are all negotiated!"
Lao Wang took the phone number, put it in his pocket, and asked, "Would you like to play mahjong for a while?"
Scar came in just in time to hear these words, and took over the words and said: "That's a good relationship. The four of us are playing mahjong. Xiao Ming can buy a horse!"
After hearing this, Xiao Ming glanced at Lao Wang and said sternly: "Why are you playing mahjong? Go home quickly and pay out the money. That's the business!"
Scar handed out a ring of cigarettes for Xiao Ming. For a moment, the whole room was filled with smoke. Xiao Ming was choked by the smoke. He joked: "Ahem~ You should pay attention, I am still a minor!"
What Xiao Ming received was the disdain projected from four pairs of eyes, which made him feel very sad!
Can't you tell the truth?
God, save the child!
Xiao Ming simply ignored them, walked outside alone to breathe fresh air, and waited for them.
After a few people came out, Xiao Ming waved goodbye to them, and finally pulled Scar and asked: "Your material payment is 280,000, and there is also a machinery fee of 50,000. Right? This time, you can only pay 50,000 for the machinery. Will I pay you 220,000 in advance for the material cost?”
Scar teased and asked, "Then there's 2,000 yuan left, shall we divide it?"
Xiao Ming also laughed, a little miserably: "Well, it's divided! When the next allocation comes, I will give priority to making up your 60,000 material fee, and then divide the rest?"
Scar patted Xiao Ming's shoulder and said sincerely: "Then let's do it!"
Xiao Ming finally got only 1,400 yuan, and still had 60,000 yuan in debt, and the total receivables were 180,000 yuan.
Scar earned 600 yuan and had 60,000 yuan in materials receivable.
Xiao Ming will not ask Scar how much money he can earn from materials and machinery. No matter how much he earns, it is still his ability.
The basis of cooperation is full trust!
Xiao Ming pretended to be chatting and asked Scar tentatively: "Are you going to stay in the sand and gravel business or are you going to do the machinery business as well?"
Scar laughed at himself and shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet. If I start a machinery business, the investment will be too big and I don't have that much capital. If I make sand and gravel, there will be a lot of padding!"
Xiao Ming shook his head and suggested: "Why don't you come and open an Internet cafe near our school?"
A light flashed in Scar's eyes, and he nodded: "The Internet cafe you mentioned can be considered, but forget it near your school! I'm going to drive to a university in the city!"
Xiao Ming licked his lips, nodded, and gave him a thumbs up: "If you are discerning, let's go to the bank again and transfer the money to you!"
