It is often said that there are no friends in business.

The so-called businessman talks about the righteousness of his buddies or something, but it is all false.

That's all to disguise yourself and establish a harmless image of a person and animals, so as to trick people and deceive novices.

When he first set foot in the shopping mall in his previous life, Ning Weimin was convinced of these words for a while.

He regarded the business field as the tiger's den in Longtan, and the businessman as a poisonous snake and beast.

But then he gradually realized that this was not the case at all.

This sentence is really an extreme view of partial generalization, deliberately amplifying the deception in the business field.

For example, there are no friends in the business field.

If it is said in a person's mind, he only puts himself completely in his heart, reaches out to help unconditionally, and will not betray in the face of the temptation of interests.

Even when there is a conflict between each other's interests, the other party can also harm the person who benefits you and is positioned as a friend.

Then I'm afraid this person will never have any friends by his side.

Because it's just too unrealistic.

Needless to say, everyone wants to make such good friends.

But there is no such thing as good for no reason.

Under normal circumstances, let alone in business, no matter where you are, such friends are easy to find.

This kind of friend, who is stronger than his blood relatives, requires extremely harsh conditions to exist.

For example, the same experience of life and death, supporting each other through thick and thin, or sending charcoal in the snow when it is fatal, just like what Ning Weimin and Kang Shude have experienced.

If not, wouldn't it be a fool's dream?

But if a person thinks in the case of alignment of goals.

As long as they can understand each other's interests, help each other conditionally, and benefit each other, this is considered a friend.

Well, in business, such friends can be found everywhere, perhaps even more than in any other field.

Because it is precisely the businessmen who understand the importance of networking and cooperation with each other the most.

They are often the most people, the most observant, the most informed, and the most likable.

Under this premise, as long as the interests of each other are aligned, there will be a harmonious relationship.

In the same way, is it said that only businessmen in the world value interests, ignore feelings, and like to cheat people?

Obviously, this conclusion is also untenable.

Despite the huge business deception that is completely successful, it can only happen between friends.

Although once two businessmen have a conflict of interest, it will damage the relationship between them, and even part ways as a result, and they can no longer become friends.

But this pattern is not unique to the business world.

Applicable to all fields and relationships.

Ning Weimin has seen many good classmates, good colleagues, and good buddies from childhood to adulthood.

Because they compete with each other for an opportunity to study, a job opportunity, or a boyfriend and girlfriend, or a job promotion,

Mutual suspicion, betrayal, digging holes, and betraying each other led to a complete parting of the ways.

He has also seen some brothers and sisters related to the inheritance of real estate, or valuable stamps left by the elderly.

The fight was blushing and thick-necked, and there was a big fight for it, and finally it got to the point of making the family ugly public in court and the media.

Even some children when the old man was alive, because of their bad habits,

Cheated and squandered the old man's property and made the old man homeless.

None of this has anything to do with the business field, nothing to do with the businessman.

Conversely, in Ning Weimin's own experience, it is easier for businessmen who believe in equivalent exchange to be honest with each other.

Because everyone's interests are often obvious.

The likes and dislikes and affinities that arise from this relationship are not disguised at all, they are very direct and practical.

The tacit understanding between each other can be fully reflected in the currency, which can be seen and touched.

Although it doesn't sound so pleasing to the ear, it is actually far more simple and easier to get along with than those hypocritical gentlemen's friendships.

Therefore, in Ning Weimin's view, the real reason for this result of valuing profit over righteousness is just the disaster caused by the fact that the profit-seeking and selfishness in human nature are not controlled and infinitely magnified.

Such people never care only about themselves, and do not know how to respect the needs of others.

On the other hand, as long as they are not such people, they are all people who are worthy of contact, trust, work together, and cooperate.

Just like the neighbors of No. 2 Courtyard around him, and those former colleagues of Chongwenmen Hotel.

Don't look at each of them as ordinary, almost all of them gathered around him because of the benefits.

But after all, people are emotional animals, and after getting along for a long time, there will be not only benefits between them, but also feelings and trust will be accumulated.

This leads to the fact that these friends can do things for him regardless of remuneration, and are even really willing to compromise some of their own interests to fulfill his interests.

For example, Zhang Shihui, why didn't he even want an IOU, so he gave him tens of thousands of savings to use?

Obviously, the business of the two has been divided, but as soon as the price of tobacco and alcohol rises, because he knows that he uses money, Zhang Shihui took the initiative to give him some additional money.

Everything happens naturally, and it's all about that.

I believe that as long as no major changes occur, such a friendship can be maintained forever, and such a friend will always be my help.

Therefore, based on such a relationship, since Zhang Shihui has made up his mind to suspend his job and keep his salary, he plans to work with Ning Weimin again.

Ning Weimin has to be worthy of him and arrange it for him.

"Just say, what do you arrange for me to do? What do you say, what do I do, I believe in you, and obey all orders. ”

In mid-June, Zhang Shihui completed all the formalities and came to Ning Weimin to ask about his future.

At that time, he looked at Ning Weimin warmly, as if in an encouraging tone.

I was looking forward to Ning Weimin telling him the decision quickly.

But he didn't expect Ning Weimin to look at him with a smile for a while and give him such an answer.

"I'm going to open a cigarette hotel, I'm almost ready, let's join one and a half, how about you take care of it for me?"

"Huh, smoke hotel?"

"Yes, you are very familiar with the business of tobacco and alcohol, and the demand for these things will become greater and more in demand in the future. Why don't we go ahead and do it?"

"It's not...... So if you want to do this business, you can also make a big one......, right? Isn't it actually a commissary?"

Zhang Shihui looked at Ning Weimin questioningly, he really didn't expect that Ning Weimin would want to open a cigarette hotel.

This is a money-making idea that only ordinary people with little ability would think of.

It's not even as good as their old methods, renting rooms in hotels to dump supplies, which is hidden and light, and they don't have to pay taxes.

Seriously, if that's the case, why would he resign?

If you continue with the pattern of the past, will you continue to do it yourself?

How did you know that Ning Weimin's words below made Zhang Shihui feel happy again.

And this is probably the so-called "speech".

"What kind of commissary? Let me tell you, with this store, our level is much higher. That's called a merchant to a businessman. That's a curtain on the buttocks, and it's also a flag! That's a grave, and it's a mountain!"

"To put it bluntly, only when you have a stable business place, people can find you at any time, can you be trusted. Otherwise, it will always be a small fight. ”

"Why should I open a store? Because we don't just have to sell, we have to receive. And you have to deal with all kinds of high-level people, and the amount of goods you go will be larger. ”

"In my opinion, you should not only have a dedicated office. You also have to have staff who do the chores for you. You're going to come out and make big deals. ”

"As for your income, except for the money you make in the store. I am also going to give you the name of an assistant manager in Pierre Karton's company, a salary of 1,000 yuan, free suits, and reimbursement of bus and meal expenses. ”

"You don't even have to work in the company, except for taking care of things in the store. I'll call you for help unless I need it urgently. ”

"How's that? Considering your kid's appetite for food, fun, and unrestrained nature, I've got it right, right? If you're not satisfied, then ...... Then let's just change positions and get ......."

Didn't say anything, it's all here, what else can Zhang Shihui choose?

A buddy is a buddy, and people have to carry their faces.

For this reason, he hurriedly thanked and thanked him for his assurance, and he would definitely manage the cigarette hotel well.
