Chapter 20 The first arrival in the provincial capital
May 3rd
At half past six in the morning, Li Chen got up and saw that his mother had already made breakfast, and his heart was warm! Thinking of the sentence "A child with a mother is like a treasure", it is indeed true!
Li's mother said, "Have you packed your luggage?"
"I'm afraid it's too late, so I cleaned it up last night!" Li Chen replied!
"Let's wash up and have breakfast before we go!"
"Good!"
......
After breakfast, Mama Li accompanied Li Chen downstairs!
Walking to the door of the community, Li Chen stretched out his hand to stop a taxi, but was rejected by Li's mother, saying that it was still too late, and it was more cost-effective to take the bus!
Li Chen smiled at his mother awkwardly!
At this time, the starting price of the taxi is three yuan, and the bus is eight cents! Maybe Li Chen didn't feel anything, especially in his parents' generation, they attached great importance to money and were economical!
Come to Pingjiang Bus Station, it's past eight o'clock!
Li Chen said to his mother, "Mom, go back!"
Li's mother said, "Xiaochen, pay attention to safety, keep your finances safe, and if you encounter a stranger's accosting, you must be vigilant at any time! Don't know that your wallet has been touched by others!"
“......”
"When you get there, you have to call home as soon as you get there!"
"yes, got it, Mom. ”
After Li Chen got in the car, he saw his mother's face full of worry through the car window, maybe at this moment, Li Chen was relieved of what his mother said before, for the sake of life, some things are forced to do so!
Soon, the car started, and Li Chen saw that his mother was still there, so he smiled and waved his hand to his mother! Through the car window, Li Chen saw his mother's mouth shape, as if he was saying to pay attention to safety all the way!
Li Chen waved his hand to his mother again......

Jiangzhou City
At half past three in the afternoon, the car successfully arrived at Jiangzhou long-distance bus terminal!
Jiangzhou City is the capital city of Hedong Province, and the entire province also has a population of nearly 70 million. Even though it's not the Spring Festival at the moment, there are still a lot of tourists coming to the city during the May Day holiday!
"Finally came to this familiar city again!" After living in Jiangzhou for more than ten years, Li Chen was extremely emotional!
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes! Not to mention the bus station!
At present, the most chaotic place is the train station and the bus station! In the crowded station, it can be said that there is a mixture of fish and dragons, basically three religions and nine streams, and the idle people will choose to make money here!
As soon as I got out of the station, I was greeted by a group of shouting people:
"Little brother, where to go, do you need a car?"
"Brother, do you need to stay overnight? fifteen yuan a night!"
"Little brother, there's something fun, are you going? all of them are young and beautiful, do you want to try it?"
"Little brother, where are you going?"
And so on and so forth......
Li Chen just wanted to leave this crowded station quickly, so as not to have an accident! Walking out of the station, Li Chen stopped a taxi and went to a Fang Er community, which was extremely familiar before!
This is the place where he rented a house for five years in his previous life! The community is still this community, and its appearance has not changed at all! Then, Li Chen stayed in a nearby hotel and called home to report that he was safe!
......
Early the next morning
After a night's rest, Li Chen got up early!
Yesterday, Li Chen already learned that there was a talent recruitment fair today!
At that time, the name of the talent market was not called for nothing, and there were many real talents!
When Li Chen came to Jiangzhou Talent Market, it was already overcrowded! Since there were no stalls and exhibition reports, Li Chen could only wander around inside!
During the whole process, Li Chen found that several local supermarkets were recruiting store managers, reserve store managers and other positions, Li Chen realized that this might be an opportunity......
Since the supermarket is a capable store manager, the operation of the convenience store will not be too bad? Li Chen thought.
When someone applied for a job, Li Chen stood aside and watched! As soon as the other party said that he was applying for the position of store manager or other finance-related positions, Li Chen would silently write it down, and when the people left, he would go over and communicate with him privately!
In this process, most people think that Li Chen is a liar! First, because he is too young, and secondly, when the other party asks what brand your unit is, Li Chen said that the store is still in preparation!
Of course, it's not all without gains!
There are also a few people who expressed interest in learning about Li Chen's general plan for convenience stores in the future after listening to Li Chen's brief description and left a phone call!
There are two people who have the most profound impact on Li Chen!
One is named Xu Yang, male, 35 years old, who worked as a store manager in Yonghui Supermarket in Fujian Province!
The other person is Liu Hong, a 37-year-old male who worked as a reserve manager in an unknown local supermarket!
After all, there is no detailed understanding, and it is impossible to easily trust others just by seeing a few resumes from others!
Li Chen also thought of a headhunting company! The price may be a little higher, and everything is worth it for the current urgent need for reliable talents!
"At present, there is indeed no official convenience store open, even if the headhunter finds a capable professional manager, what is the use? Can you keep it?" Li Chen couldn't help but ask himself. "Everyone is a two-way choice, without a suitable venue and a few stores to support, it basically doesn't work? No matter how big the pie is, there have to be people willing to join in!"
Li Chen has a big head!
I didn't expect that I was full of passion and wanted to do things, but I didn't expect that it would be a big problem of talents! Not to mention the back, suppliers, industrial and commercial registration, staff training, store manager recruitment and the like......
If you just want to open a convenience store, just recruit a few people in Pingjiang! But Li Chen obviously doesn't want to do this, and at present, he is aiming at the domestic convenience store industry!
In Jiangzhou City, 7-11, FamilyMart, Lawson is the first convenience store brand to enter the country, there is currently no one, you must know that you can see it everywhere on the street in the previous life! Of course, it has a lot to do with the current market environment!
"If you really can't find the right person, it's not too late to find a headhunting company!" Li Chen thought!
Immediately, Li Chen and Xu Yang and Liu Hong, who had just made a friend in the talent market, made phone calls respectively, and both of them expressed their willingness to talk in detail, so they made an appointment with each other at nine o'clock and eleven o'clock tomorrow morning to meet in a teahouse near the second community!
......
Afternoon
Li Chen came to a place that was once extremely familiar - Meower Stone Industrial Park!
This is a building left over from the last century, and the red façade is particularly conspicuous!
Later, this place became an independent decoration unit base, and the building itself has a sense of history, and because of its peculiar appearance, it soon became an Internet celebrity check-in place!
Looking at the place where I have worked for ten years, every grass and tree here looks very kind. He thought of his colleagues who had worked together here, and Li Chen couldn't help but lose his mind for a while......
A breeze blew, and Li Chen calmed down: "It's good to be alive!"
