Chapter 15 New Business Directions

"Okay." Seeing Elena's firm attitude, Yang Wendong also knew that this kind of thing might not be forced.

He believes that he cannot sacrifice too much of his own interests for others, and he prefers a win-win model, such as working for the poor if he is able.

However, there is indeed a group of people in this world who are doing such things, and Yang Wendong still has some respect for these people.

Elena said: "Mr. Yang, your products have now officially entered some departments under the Hong Kong government. I can introduce them, but whether those warehouses will continue to purchase them in the future is not something I can control.

As far as I know, several rat cage and rat poison businesses in Hong Kong have already started to take action. They also want to take over this market, so what happens next depends on you. "

"Okay, I understand. No matter what, I am very grateful to Ms. Elena." Yang Wendong said sincerely.

Elena added: "You're welcome. Your stuff is relatively cheap. As a Hong Kong government official, it's my job to save procurement costs for the Hong Kong government."

Yang Wendong thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, Ms. Elena. When I have the ability in the future, I will definitely provide Hong Kong squatters or homeless people with a job that can guarantee them enough food."

In Hong Kong, those who live in slums are very pitiful, but there are also many people who are even more miserable, that is, those who don’t even have a place to live in slums.

Although the dormitory looks shabby, in fact, you still need to pay some money to some gang members, otherwise, don't even think about living there.

Behind these gang members, there are actually shadows of the police or other departments of the Hong Kong government.

Those who are too poor to pay will be driven away and become homeless in the true sense of the word.

Or, when a fire or heavy rain occurs, the wooden huts may be damaged, leaving people homeless.

As far as Yang Wendong knew, in a few years, a large-scale fire would break out in Hong Kong's shanty towns, causing heavy casualties and even alarming the international media.

But the saddest thing is that although the fire claimed many lives, more people lost their homes due to man-made disasters.

After the international media reported the incident, the Hong Kong government began to demolish shanty towns on a large scale due to international pressure.

As for where these people live? Will they freeze to death or starve to death? Who cares?
Although the British Hong Kong government said on the surface that it would build affordable housing, most of the people who really needed it were not able to apply for it. Instead, it was people with connections who got these affordable housing and then rented them out to the poor.

This was Hong Kong in the 50s. No one could change it. Individual power was simply not enough to change this chaotic society.

Elena nodded and said, "That would be great."

In a chaotic society, all Yang Wendong can do is to change his destiny as soon as possible.

There are countless opportunities in Hong Kong society in the future, but the only thing Yang Wendong can rely on now is his own mousetrap.

In the afternoon, several people came to the first warehouse they had been to before. Since they had been brought in by Elena before, they went in easily.

A Chinese employee arranged them to work in a corner, and they quickly and skillfully assembled the mousetraps. Then, under the command of Yang Wendong, they placed all the mousetraps on the walls and corners.

When the work was almost finished, a British ghost came over. It was Brian who had been talking with Elena in the morning.

Brian saw the location of the mousetrap and came over to ask, "Hey, why are these mouse-catching tools placed next to the wall?"

Yang Wendong asked in surprise: "Where did you put it before?"

"Put it next to the food?" Brian answered, "Because we put it next to the food, we dare not use rat poison, and mouse traps can easily hurt people, and mouse cages are not very effective in catching mice, so Elena introduced us to your thing." "Uh" Yang Wendong was speechless for a while, and said, "Mr. Brian, no matter what kind of tool you use to catch mice, you can't put it directly next to the food, the effect will be very poor."

No wonder these people can’t catch mice. They don’t even know this basic common sense.

However, we really can't blame them. These people probably have good living conditions and don't have much contact with rats in their daily lives, so they don't have much experience.

He is not like Yang Wendong, who comes from the future and has 20 years of experience in the Internet's information explosion. He knows countless news that people of this era will never know in their lifetime.

In this era, even the President of the United States may not be able to obtain information from the outside world as quickly and extensively as a smartphone in later generations.

Yang Wendong knows a little about common sense in many areas, but people of this era may need many years of in-depth understanding to achieve this.

Brian nodded and said, "That makes sense, then why is it placed next to the wall?"

Yang Wendong said: "This is the natural characteristic of mice. They are very cautious and have many natural enemies in nature, so their instinct is to walk along the wall. Placing any mouse-catching tools against the wall or in the corner will be more effective.

besides……"

Afterwards, Yang Wendong briefly introduced some basic knowledge.

Brian thought for a moment and said, "Well, that's how it is. It's a pity that I didn't meet you earlier. Previously, our warehouse was damaged by rats, and a lot of food was destroyed. We had to dispose of a lot of it."

Yang Wendong smiled and didn't say anything else.

Brian was silent for a moment, then asked, "What's your name?"

Yang Wendong replied: "My last name is Yang, and my name is Yang Wendong."

"Well, Mr. Yang, I see that you are also a businessman. How about I contract the rat extermination work in our warehouse to you?" Brian suddenly said.

Yang Wendong was surprised and asked, "Give it to me?"

Brian nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, we also bought a lot of tools to kill rats before. Some of them worked well in the early stage, but they didn't work later.

I originally thought it was a problem with the tools, but now it seems that it was my subordinates who didn’t have the knowledge in this area. I think you are a professional, so it would be more appropriate to hand it over to you.”

"That is indeed a method." Yang Wendong nodded, feeling very happy.

This is actually the model of rat extermination companies in later generations. If you can develop along this path, it will be much better than making mousetraps.

Because as far as he knew, there were already quite a few people making mousetraps.

There may not be any professional companies like rat extermination companies in Hong Kong at present. The concept of "specialization" may not have appeared on a large scale in this era.

As the world's largest trade re-export center, Hong Kong has a large number of warehouses. If the Hong Kong government is worried about the extremely low probability but possible plague, then this market, at least in the short term, will be very large.
