Chapter 23: Cunning
Later, Yang Wendong and Zhao Liming negotiated with two other people and asked the three of them to supply them with goods together.
If your business expands later and you need more mousetraps, you can let them compete among themselves. Not to mention the price, at least you can choose the better quality.
In this way, he would not need to worry about mousetraps. The mousetrapping strategy he had currently developed still used mousetraps as the main tool, and other mechanisms were only a minority.
In the following week, the four of them began to divide the work and went to the Jordan warehouse and the six surrounding warehouses. With the experience summarized by Jordan, they successfully caught and killed a lot of rats.
Henry Warehouse:
"Xiao Yang, you are really amazing. You caught more than 100 mice in less than a week?" A middle-aged man with a big fat belly said with a smile.
"Mr. Qian, I'm just trying to make a living." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
Although he received the rat catching business in these warehouses, he obviously could not do what Jordan did and occasionally communicate with foreigners.
Here, you can communicate directly with the Chinese leaders.
He didn't know the name of the fat man in front of him. The workers in Henry's warehouse called him Uncle Qian in public and Qian Siyan in private.
It is said that money makes one blind.
Qian Siyan nodded and said, "Very good. As long as you can ensure that the number of rats in our warehouse is reduced by a large margin, we will do this business."
Yang Wendong immediately said, "Thank you, Mr. Qian."
"Yeah." Qian Siyan nodded and said, "The price is 20 per week?"
Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Yes."
Qian Siyan said, "Xiao Yang, I know that you have contracted the rat extermination business for several nearby warehouses, but you also know that the goods in our warehouses are furniture.
Other food that has been bitten by rats can still be saved. Even if not, it is not worth much if thrown away. But our imported furniture cannot be sold if even a little bit of it is bitten.
So, I hope you can spend more time in our warehouse, and as for the price, I can raise it to 40 yuan."
"40?" Yang Wendong was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Qian Siyan's calm expression and immediately understood what he meant. He said, "Okay, thank you Mr. Qian for your care. I also understand what you mean."
Qian Siyan nodded, glanced at Yang Wendong, and said, "Xiao Yang, you are very good. I wish your business will grow bigger in the future."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Qian." Yang Wendong said politely.
"Yeah." Qian Siyan nodded, then walked upstairs without caring about his relatives.
In the evening, after everyone gathered together, Yang Wendong informed a few people about Qian Siyan's matter. They were currently a team, and although Yang Wendong had the final say, some important matters still needed to be informed.
"Fuck, damn, I can get 20 a week for doing nothing?" Zhao Liming said speechlessly: "We work so hard and have to pay for equipment, and it's only 20 a week."
Yang Wendong shrugged and said, "Society is like this. We are in this society and we have to obey it. Don't think too much. He just wants some money, not ours. Let him be. This kind of thing will happen again in the future."
In this era, not to mention businesses, even the Hong Kong government and the Hong Kong police are full of darkness, and asking for money is very normal.
In the past, when I was a laborer or a vendor, I was not targeted. I just had to pay according to the rules. But now that I have started my own business and have surpassed ordinary vendors, I naturally need to understand what others mean. If I don’t, then forget about doing business.
Zhao Liming said: "Well, Dong Ge is really smart. If I were in this situation, I would probably not be able to react."
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "So you have to be more careful in the future. First of all, others will not think for you, but only for themselves. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
Second, when doing business, we must understand the basic principle of mutual benefit and sharing. This is the same principle that applies to us when we set up stalls to sell things and customers have to bargain with us. "
"Well, I still have a lot to learn," said Zhao Liming.
Yang Wendong said: "Well, if you don't know what it means, then you should talk less, or say that you are not the person in charge. In the short term, I can still handle it."
"Yeah." Zhao Liming nodded.
Su Yiyi asked: "Brother Dong, now that Hennessy Warehouse refuses to sign a contract with us, do you still want to go talk to them?"
"No." Yang Wendong shook his head and said, "The person in charge of the Henney warehouse is too difficult. I feel like he just likes to take advantage of others.
In addition, they probably saw that we had killed a lot of rats last week, so they thought we were no longer needed. After a while, the rats will return, and they will know what professionalism is. "
Lin Haoyu was also a little angry and said, "These damn capitalists are so abominable. They knew that our results were best in the first week, so they only cooperated with us for one week."
"Don't make a fuss. Stay calm and get used to it. It's nothing." Yang Wendong didn't care at all: "We just need to finish the remaining five warehouses."
He had seen many disgusting capitalists in later generations. For example, in one factory, the canteen, toilets and warehouse were extremely dirty.
Then they hired a cleaner, saying it was a long-term job. After they worked hard to clean the place for three days, they said they were not suitable and kicked them out.
"Okay." Several people agreed.
With more business and more income, everyone's motivation increased in the following month.
Including the Jordan warehouse, there are a total of 6 stores, with 20 each. Yang Wendong’s net income is 120 per week, which is almost 500 per month.
The salary for Su Yiyi, Zhao Liming and Lin Haoyu is 50 yuan per month, which is slightly higher than their previous income.
At the same time, to do this business, he also needs to purchase some tools. In addition to the most common mousetrap, there are also some DIY mechanisms he made, which also require plastic buckets, iron wire, etc. These cost him almost a hundred dollars.
Including some money for food, his net profit in the last month was about 200 yuan, which is not a small amount, but not a lot either.
His savings have exceeded 400, which is the result of two months of his coming to Hong Kong.
One day at noon, the four of them gathered together, eating wonton noodles at a food stall, and also ordered a luxurious cold dish.
Yang Wendong said: "There are fewer and fewer rats in the six warehouses we serve now, and we don't have to be as busy as before, so I plan to visit new customers and attract more business."
Su Yiyi asked: "Then our people will be too busy to handle it, right?"
Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Yes, so we need to expand the number of people when the time is right, otherwise, we won't be able to expand."
