Chapter 32 New Beginnings and Big Business
Chapter 32 New Beginnings and Big Business
On the first night after moving into their new "home", Yang Wendong and the others slept very comfortably. There were even fewer mosquitoes. Because this was the sixth floor, the limited few mosquitoes were also eliminated in advance.
The next morning, waking up from the hard concrete floor, Yang Wendong felt that he was really happy now!
Soon, Zhao Liming and Lin Haoyu, who were still sleeping, were woken up, and the cardboard on the concrete floor was picked up and the bed was folded up.
The three of them then went to the bathroom to wash up. This was what Yang Wendong had dreamed of most. Although the office he rented was not big, it had a small independent bathroom of about 25 feet.
There is no toilet, but there is a squat toilet and a faucet, so taking a shower is much more convenient. You can flush whenever you want, without having to go through the difficult process like in the dormitory.
The noise of the three people also woke up Su Yiyi and Aunt Guo in the next room. Su Yiyi came out and asked, "What are we having for breakfast?"
"Liming, go downstairs and buy some buns." Yang Wendong said, "We also need to buy some kitchen utensils later. It's too expensive to eat out every day. We also need a gas stove to cook here."
Before renting this place, Yang Wendong also walked around the area and asked about the prices of many basic necessities. For example, a bowl of the most common wonton noodles costs 3 cents, and adding vegetables and meat will be more expensive.
With such prices, it is impossible for the five of them to eat out every day. Even if they can eat in the warehouse at noon, that is not possible in the morning and evening. They all do physical work and cannot help but eat more.
Aunt Guo asked: "Can this gas stove be used here?"
"Yes, China Gas's gas stove is still very safe. I have already discussed it with the owner before." Yang Wendong nodded and said.
In fact, he would rather buy an induction cooker, so that even if the electricity bill is a little more expensive, it can still ensure safety and convenience.
Unfortunately, I went to several shopping malls but couldn't find it. Many kitchenware business owners had never heard of this thing and only knew about gas stoves.
Yang Wendong estimated that the induction cooker might not have been invented yet, or even if it had been invented, it had not yet been popularized.
Many things that are common in later generations did not exist in this era.
Aunt Guo said, "Okay, after you buy them, I will be responsible for buying vegetables, cooking and washing pots and bowls."
After Yang Wendong made some money, Aunt Guo was reluctant to resign at first. No matter what she said, she refused because she was worried that she would not be able to find a job if she was unemployed.
Just a few days ago, after Yang Wendong took her to Liao Chong Hing Bank, she saw nearly 1000 yuan in the bank account. She also knew that Yang Wendong's business was getting bigger and bigger and he needed help, so she left the previous textile factory.
"Well, summer is coming soon. Don't buy too many vegetables. Just use more rice, flour and oil. We don't need to eat so much meat and vegetables." Yang Wendong knew that without a refrigerator, the vegetables would easily go bad.
Aunt Guo agreed and said, "Okay."
Soon, Zhao Liming bought a dozen steamed buns downstairs, and only three meat buns for Yang Wendong.
Yang Wendong took one look and said, "I asked you to buy steamed buns, why are you reluctant to do it? And since you're buying steamed buns, just buy steamed buns!"
Zhao Liming said with a smile: "Brother Dong, our lives now all depend on you. You have to eat well. A few months ago, we couldn't even afford steamed buns. Now we are lucky to have something to eat."
Su Yiyi took the steamed buns and said, "Brother Dong, I asked Liming to do this. We decided together. Don't blame him. I didn't tell you because you definitely wouldn't agree."
"I eat steamed buns, it's the same." Yang Wendong shook his head helplessly and said, "Then let's have three buns, each person eats half, Aunt Guo is the elder, so she can eat one.
Since you say I am the boss, then listen to me."
After saying that, he took the meat buns from the table, divided one into two, two into four, and then said, "Let's divide the four."
Aunt Guo quickly said, "No, you eat one and I'll eat half."
Yang Wendong didn't waste any time and ate half of the meat bun in two bites. It smells so good!
Then he drank some tap water, took a steamed bun, and said, "That's it. Liming, let's go out and buy things. Haoyu, you continue to lead the other brothers to work in the various warehouses."
For him now, as long as his life is not like the one he lived in the dormitory before, it is enough for the time being.
As for other conditions, such as food and drink, it doesn’t matter if they are a little worse. Perhaps, it’s because I’ve been in the 50s for three months and I’ve gotten used to it.
……
The sales point of China Gas was a bit far away, so Yang Wendong and Zhao Liming finally bought a gas tank of about 10kg, carried it back from a kilometer away, and then went to buy a gas stove.
Together with some other basic living supplies, the total cost was 100 yuan.
In Hong Kong, a non-industrialized country where many materials rely on imports, prices are very high.
It was noon when Aunt Guo started cooking. Zhao Liming said to Yang Wendong, "Brother Dong, I have to go back after dinner."
"Yes." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "We are not yet able to bring you and Haoyu's parents out with us. Let's wait a little longer."
The main reason for letting Haoyu and Liming move here was that they had a good relationship. Before, the three of them had been united in protecting the small gang from outsiders, and they even saved each other's lives.
Secondly, he also considered that these two people are now his right-hand men, and living here will be convenient for his career development. Without mobile phones and the Internet, he simply cannot find other people in other places.
But as for their parents, it is really impossible to come together to take care of them at the moment. At most, I can give them some money to buy some food.
"Well, thank you, Brother Dong." Zhao Liming smiled and said, "With Brother Dong's ability, this day will definitely not be far away."
"We will be back in the afternoon. We will continue working tomorrow." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
"No problem." Zhao Liming nodded and agreed.
Living here is really a thousand times better than the dormitory. He will come back naturally. When they were working before, they all tried their best to sleep in other people's warehouses for a night.
……
After securing a place to live, Yang Wendong was in a good mood.
Sleeping comfortably and soundly at night also makes him more energetic when working.
Afterwards, Zhao Liming, Lin Haoyu and a dozen newly recruited brothers gradually became proficient in the business.
The rat extermination business is becoming an increasingly easy job as long as it is done well, which makes Yang Wendong gradually less tired than before.
"Knock knock knock~" There was a knock on the door.
Yang Wendong was very curious about who would come to his place.
When he opened the door, he saw that it was Wang Zhixian, so he said with a smile, "Why is Mr. Wang here?"
"I know you have an office, so I came to take a look." Wang Zhixian said with a smile, "And I also brought you a big business."
