Chapter 39 The Beginning of a New Business
Chapter 39 The Beginning of a New Business
The boss nodded and said, "Okay, that's $3."
"Yeah." Yang Wendong didn't bargain much and handed the boss a 5-yuan bill as change.
After the boss gave the change, he asked, "What's your name, sir?"
"My last name is Yang." Yang Wendong said.
The boss said, "Mr. Yang, if the glue is okay, please take care of the business."
"Okay." Yang Wendong put away the glue and said, "But, boss, I will ask other companies again. You should think clearly about the price next time. If it is suitable, I can naturally cooperate with you. If it is not suitable, then forget it."
"Okay." Boss A Long knew what Yang Wendong meant as soon as he heard it. It has to be cheap enough.
Naturally, there was more than one store selling glue in the entire hardware market. Yang Wendong took Zhao Liming to visit a few more stores and bought a total of 6 different types of glue.
After walking out of the last store.
Zhao Liming held the glue he had just bought and asked, "Brother Dong, I've seen this glue from other stores before. Why do you want to buy it from another store?"
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "In fact, you can buy glue from any store. Basically, every store has many types, and there is always one that suits us.
We go to several stores not for glue, but to find a few stores that can stock the glue. When we need to buy a lot, we will see which one has the best price. "
"Oh, I see." Zhao Liming also understood and asked, "But these companies are all together, will they team up to cheat us?"
"You are thinking ahead." Yang Wendong smiled and said, "They don't know how much we need to buy, so they won't join forces, and they don't even know if we are bragging.
Besides, there is more than one hardware market in Hong Kong. When we have time later, we will look at other places.
The most important thing is that we need to get things made now.”
Zhao Liming asked: "Then why do we buy so much glue and stickers? What are they used for?"
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "Good stuff, let's go back first, Haoyu should be almost done."
After the two returned home, Lin Haoyu also rushed back, but he came back carrying a shoulder pole and two bamboo baskets in front and back.
Yang Wendong stepped forward, looked at the things in the frame, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The wooden planks are enough."
After Lin Haoyu put down the shoulder pole, he said, "Brother Dong, the quantity is enough, but the quality is not good enough.
I went to the dormitory and found a lot of people to follow us to look for wood boards in the garbage dump on the back mountain, but most of them were of poor quality. The good wood had already been picked up by the neighbors in the dormitory. "
Yang Wendong took out a few wooden boards from the frame and felt them. He said, "Not bad. Not too bad."
Lin Haoyu smiled and said, "That's because I spent some money to buy some wooden boards from some of my neighbors in the dormitory that they hadn't used yet."
"Yeah, that's right. It's really too time-consuming and labor-intensive for us to go out and look for it." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Many of the neighbors in the dormitory have nothing to do. They used to go and look for planks to take home. From now on, if you need planks, you don't have to look for them anymore. You can just buy them directly. They are not worth much anyway."
When Yang Wendong started his business, he looked for free bamboo, which came from bamboo used for scaffolding in Hong Kong's construction industry and was discarded after a long time.
There are a lot of them and no one wants them, so they are easy to find. However, wooden boards are rare. Even if they appear, they will be taken away by neighbors in the dormitory to build houses and furniture. Yang Wendong's previous house was repaired with these broken wooden boards.
"Okay." Lin Haoyu nodded and asked, "Brother Dong, now that the stuff has arrived, what should we do?"
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "Good stuff, you guys will watch it later."
After that, Yang Wendong put on rubber gloves and prepared an old plastic basin and placed it below. Then, in front of several people, he evenly applied glue on a square piece of thin wood, and then said, "Wait a moment, wait for the glue to dry."
Su Yiyi, who had been staring, didn't understand what was going on and asked, "What do you do after you do it?"
Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Eat first, you will know later."
Su Yiyi nodded and said, "Oh, okay."
No one paid any more attention to it. After quickly finishing their fried rice, they looked back and found that the glue on the wooden board had dried.
Yang Wendong poked it with his finger first, then motioned to Su Yiyi and said, "Try it too and see if it sticks."
"Oh, okay." Su Yiyi didn't understand, but she basically did whatever Yang Wendong asked her to do.
I saw her finger poked on the wooden board, and then when she wanted to retract it, she felt a very strong pulling force, but she still pulled it open.
Yang Wendong asked: "How do you feel?"
"It's very sticky, much stickier than the Spring Festival couplets posted during the Chinese New Year at my previous workplace." Su Yiyi said.
Zhao Liming next to him said, "Let me try it too."
"Okay." Yang Wendong didn't care, but he didn't expect that Zhao Liming would press his entire palm on it.
"Um~, Brother Dong, it's too sticky and I can't take it off." Zhao Liming's face changed. Because he used too much force, he felt the skin on his palm was painful.
"You are such a talented person." Yang Wendong was speechless.
At this time, Lin Haoyu also hurried to help, trying to pull the board open little by little, but he didn't dare to use too much strength because Zhao Liming kept screaming in pain.
"Don't use too much force." Yang Wendong immediately took out a small bottle of medical alcohol spray from his pocket. He had bought it at Watsons' pharmacy on his way back.
It was originally intended for emergency use, but I didn't expect it to be useful today.
Many adhesives are afraid of alcohol, which can inactivate the adhesive. After spraying for a while, Zhao Liming's hand was safely removed.
Zhao Liming apologized and said, "Brother Dong, I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be so clingy."
"It's okay." Yang Wendong smiled, looked at the people around him, and said with a smile: "Look, Liming's hand was stuck, and it took so much effort to get it out. What would happen if a mouse climbed up?"
"I understand, Brother Dong wants to use this thing to catch mice?" Su Yiyi understood immediately.
Yang Wendong nodded and said, "Yes, this is the weapon behind us."
The next day, Yang Wendong took the model of the mouse trap to Zhang Weida's law firm.
The two of them first went to register a company together. In total, Yang Wendong spent 300 yuan, including various arrangements, and successfully got it done and obtained his own company information.
Afterwards, Yang Wendong showed the finished product of the mouse sticky sticker. After seeing it, Zhang Weida didn't care too much about it. He didn't understand the value of this thing. Then he took Yang Wendong to the Patent Office to register a patent for the "mouse sticky board".
From then on, Yang Wendong’s new career began.
