165. I want to be self-employed

"What did you say, you quit your job?"

At the dinner table, after Li Xiumei learned the news, she almost didn't slap the table.

Guo Xiaomei and Guo Yongnian are also there.

Guo Yongkun not only has to have a showdown with his old mother today, but also intends to let them know, so as not to have to talk more in the future.

"Mom, don't get excited......"

"How can I not be excited!" Li Xiumei was so angry that she threw it away, "Didn't you do a good job, you also received foreign guests some time ago, and the factory valued you a lot, why did you ......?"

She didn't say the latter words, thinking that it should be some words such as "ungrateful", "I don't know what to do", and "I don't want to be motivated".

"Mom, listen to my explanation, in fact, I didn't resign, I just suspended my new job, and my position was still retained. Guo Yongkun said, taking out the approval materials that had been prepared a long time ago.

But Li Xiumei didn't bother to look at it, and when she heard that the position was still retained, she finally suppressed her anger for the time being, and asked, "What does that mean?"

"This means that when I want to go back to work in the No. 2 Textile Factory, I can do it. ”

"Then you'll go tomorrow!"

“...... Mom, probably not. ”

"This kid, I, I ......"

The old mother stood up suddenly, and was ready to go back to the kitchen to get a rolling pin, and the family law was served. Fortunately, he was pulled by Guo Yongnian, "Mom, you listen to Xiao Kun first." ”

Guo Xiaomei was eating while looking at the three of them, with the expressions of the melon-eating crowd.

She couldn't interject anyway.

"Mom, I'm responding to the call of the country. Guo Yongkun said: "Take a look at this newspaper." ”

In order to make the old mother accept the reality, he also took great pains, this is the latest edition of the "Guangming Daily", on the main issue of the big headline - on the necessity of restoring and developing the individual economy.

The general content is that in order to solve the employment problem of nearly 8 million educated youths who have returned to the city, the CPC has approved and forwarded a report drafted by the Administration for Industry and Commerce recommending the restoration and development of the individual economy.

Li Xiumei took it and looked at it, her face was a little strange, but she was still a little confused.

"What is the individual economy? Although you are a young intellectual, you have a job, what does it have to do with you?"

"Mom, the so-called individual economy, it is most appropriate to use the big brother as an analogy. His current commissary, which is a consignment store in nature, belongs to the collective economy, but according to the state's policy, a new opportunity will soon appear here......"

When Guo Yongkun said this, Li Xiumei was nothing, but Guo Yongnian's eyes were bright, and both ears were pricked up.

The news about the state's intention to restore the individual economy has been in an uproar lately, but he, like most people, has only understood some of the surface in a literal sense, and has not yet fully understood the specific connotation.

"Big brother's current business model is actually to work for the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the goods are uniformly distributed and priced by the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the majority of the profits are also owned by the supply and marketing cooperatives.

But then, the eldest brother doesn't have to be like this at all, as long as he gets a self-employed business license, he can go to the major factories to buy goods, and then sell them himself, and the supply and marketing cooperatives have nothing to do with it, after deducting the necessary industrial and commercial taxes, the majority of the profits belong to himself. ”

After hearing this, Guo Yongnian's eyes were already terrifyingly bright, it turned out to be such a great thing!

Doesn't that mean that the vision of doing a big shop that his younger brother had given him before can finally be realized?

And Li Xiumei was still a little foggy, frowning and said, "Self-employed?"

She still couldn't understand the meaning of those three words.

In 1984, the state allowed urban residents to set up small handicraft workshops and shops with their own funds, and all the income from their labor was returned to the state, except for a certain amount of industrial and commercial tax paid to the state.

But it is true that for a long time, this term was still not accepted by the public, and even looked at it with colored glasses.

"It's very simple, if the eldest brother does what I just said, he will change from a consignment working for the supply and marketing cooperatives to a self-employed person. ”

"Xiao Kun, I want to be a self-employed person!" Guo Yongnian's eyes were hot, and he looked yearning.

Li Xiumei frowned, turned the topic back to before, and asked, "This is your resignation...... What does it matter if you leave your job? You want to be self-employed, too?"

"Actually, I did it a long time ago, and I was not self-employed, I set up a factory affiliated with a collective. ”

"Huh?"

"Mom, don't blame me, I didn't tell you before because I guessed that you would object, but now that my factory has been built, you ...... Forgive me.

"And the state has recognized the small traders and hawkers, there will be no more speculation in the future, then the legalization of individual factories is not far away, this is the general trend, don't you want your son to do a career, just work for others for the rest of his life?"

The amount of information in Guo Yongkun's words is not small, not to mention Li Xiumei, even Guo Yongnian and Guo Xiaomei were stunned when they heard it.

Guo Yongnian knew that his younger brother was doing some other business, but since he opened the commissary, he hasn't gone out much, and he really doesn't know about the affairs of Jianlibao Beverage Factory.

"You built a factory?" asked Li Xiumei with a glare.

"Yes. ”

"Already built?"

"Almost. ”

"Where?"

"Close to the village of Deyi in the city center. ”

"This kid ...... You have been hiding such a big thing from us until now?"

Guo Yongkun glanced at her and said sincerely: "Mom, let's be fair, if I told you at the beginning that I didn't want to do the work in the factory now and went to do other things, would you agree?"

Li Xiumei didn't know how to answer for a while, she thought, she shouldn't agree.

Because she thinks in her heart that the work of the No. 2 textile factory is very good, the treatment is good, and the work is not tiring, and others can't envy it, so what's the reason to throw it away?

"So don't blame me for cutting first and then playing, I really thought at that time, get things done first, let you see that I can do it, and then tell you. It just so happens that this time the state encourages educated youth to re-employ, and I think it is an opportunity, so I will tell you. ”

Li Xiumei was angry, but she still felt a little dizzy, "Where did you get the money to build a factory?"

She has been in the factory for half her life, and she knows very well that a thing that can be called a "factory", no matter how small the scale, the construction cost will be measured in 10,000 yuan.

"Mom, believe it or not, your son and I ...... It's good at making money. Guo Yongkun smiled.

There was no way to do it, because he couldn't answer the question truthfully. I can't tell my old mother that I went to Hong Kong City to recharge the magic stick and made a lot of money, right?

"Third brother, how much money do you have now?"

Guo Xiaomei is quite interested in this topic, she has to measure how much money she has, which will directly determine her living standards and learning attitude in college in the future.

"I didn't have any money, so I went to the factory. Guo Yongkun glanced at her, and he didn't have a good breath.

"That factory doesn't make money?" Guo Xiaomei didn't give up.

"Don't you understand that you are a college student, don't you understand that the factory is not mine, it is the state. ”

"I said third brother, are you ...... Stupid? Invest your own money and then everything is someone else's. ”

"Why, no, I contribute to the country, I'm willing!"

"Xiao Kun, do you really think so?"

Guo Yongkun didn't expect that he said casually, he didn't want to give Guo Xiaomei's wife a feeling that his brother was very rich, but the old mother was suddenly hearted, and her face was happy.

His inner monologue at the moment is: Mom, the country should send you a pennant.

To educate children like you and take off as a great country, it is necessary to shorten the time of at least one generation.

"Ah, yes. "I can only let the old mother feel at ease first with my conscience.

Because this matter is not over, he can imagine that the old mother will inevitably go to the factory to have a look, and at the same time, he can also think of the shocked expression on her face.

If it weren't for the country's contribution and making such a big stall, she would have been terrified.

But then again, the business model of any real economy is itself contributing to the country.

......

The Spring Festival is approaching.

To change to previous years, Guo Yongnian, who is the son of Lao Guo's family at this time, will definitely be busy preparing for the New Year. But this year, his mind was completely out of that.

"Xiao Kun, when will the self-employed business license you mentioned last time be available?"

In the commissary, in the middle of the afternoon, there were no customers, so Guo Yongnian pulled his younger brother to inquire.

"After the beginning of the year, it should be about the same. Guo Yongkun looked at him and asked with a smile, "What, brother, what are your plans?"

"What you said, such a good opportunity, of course you have to seize it, roll up your sleeves and do a big job!"

"Tell me about your specific plans. ”

"I've thought about it, this commissary will be transferred out, Wanyou's kid is interested, and we have already talked privately. I'll go to the construction road to find a good place, a big place, and get a foreign supermarket like you told me before. What do you think?"

In this way, his brother has worked in the commissary for two years and has indeed saved some money, otherwise he would not have such a tone.

"How big a store are you going to build?"

"I've actually looked at the place where Jianshe Road and Shazhou Road intersect, there is a good door, it used to be a small printing house, but now it's closed, it's empty, you can rent it, about 500 square meters. ”

"Five hundred square meters?" Guo Yongkun frowned, "Then you can't be busy." ”

"It's okay, please someone, you don't know your brother and me, I don't have other skills, I have a lot of friends. ”

Guo Yongkun suddenly realized that there was a problem that he hadn't told his brother, and it was a very serious problem.

"Brother, do you know why self-employed people are called self-employed?"

"For ...... What?" Guo Yongnian scratched his head.

"The so-called individual, in layman's terms, is a person. You don't usually like to read newspapers, in fact, some mainstream newspapers have disclosed that although the state will liberalize the policy to allow urban residents to do business, it is not allowed to hire workers. ”

"Ah?" Guo Yongnian was stunned, so wouldn't the bright future he envisioned be all in vain.

Just think about it, with a business area of 500 square meters, he is absolutely too busy alone.

"But ......" Guo Yongkun pondered, and could only say that his brother had chosen a good industry.

"But what?" Guo Yongnian asked busily.

"If you really want to do it, it's not necessarily impossible, 500 square meters of business scale, then you must do a good job in all aspects of management, overall personnel arrangements, who is responsible for the purchase, what is responsible for the cashier, what is responsible for the goods......"

"Wait, wait...... Didn't you say you couldn't hire workers?" Guo Yongnian was surprised.

"If you hire only seven people, add you one to eight, remember, you must not exceed that number, then you will be fine. ”

"Really?" Guo Yongnian's eyes lit up, and his mood turned around, "Xiao Kun, what do you say?"

Guo Yongkun opened his mouth, this explanation is very complicated, and his brother may not be able to understand.

In a word, it is the theory of "seven up and eight down".

From Marx's "Capital", Comrade Ma divided the boundaries between "small owners" and "capitalists" according to the calculations of the middle of the 19th century.

There is no mistake
