Chapter 63: Time
The adults began to talk about making money, Lao Yang shook his head politely, and said that it was hot now, and there were not many people eating, but the days could be lived, maybe it was true, or it was low-key.
"Is it delicious?" Lao Yang suddenly asked Li Yiming.
Li Yiming nodded hurriedly.
Lao Yang smiled and said to Li Jianguo: "In the past, the children who came here to eat meat were all mouthfuls without chewing, and seeing that he ate slowly, I thought he didn't do it well today." ”
"Because of the good taste, I eat it slowly, I can't eat ginseng fruit like Zhu Bajie and I don't know what it tastes like when I eat a bite of it!" Li Jianguo said a joke, and casually added another piece of meat to Li Yiming.
"Yiming, don't be in a hurry, eat slowly, there is time, people can't eat a fat man in one bite, right!" Li Jianguo said a meaningful word.
Li Yiming nodded silently.
Just now he was observing the three plates of braised pork, but he was actually estimating something called profit margin in his heart.
But it seems that there are many kinds of profit margins, and it is mentioned in the story that according to cost and by sales are not the same, it will be a little higher by cost, and it will be a little less by sales.
It is possible to exceed 100% according to cost, and it can never be exceeded by sales, and the sentence that Marx said should refer to the cost profit margin, and everyone seems to be accustomed to using this algorithm.
If this plate uses a pound of pork belly, the cost of soy sauce and firewood adds up to two yuan, and after processing, the gross profit is five cents, and the cost profit margin is 25%.
In the story, it is said that the profit margin of the catering industry is very high, but people invest a lot of money in various hardware equipment, because the elimination rate is also high.
Nowadays, such a small shop should be all second-hand items, perhaps things moved from home.
If, according to the current state regulations, it cannot exceed 20% of the state-owned profits, then does it mean that 30% of the profits are allowed?
Li Yiming looked at Lao Yang sitting on the side, if it was a thirty percent profit, then the cost of this plate of braised pork should be nine cents and three yuan, almost exactly one catty.
This is a bit like an application problem in mathematics, going around and around, Li Yiming thought back to his textbooks, and it seemed that the questions were not so interesting.
But if you reduce the amount of meat, or buy cheaper meat, or raise the price, then the profit will be higher, didn't Marx also say that capital will go crazy when the profit exceeds 100%......
In the future, people are trying to find ways to make themselves rich, and they may still maintain a simple habit now, but in ten years this habit will be thrown down the drain, and thirty years from now a plate of home-cooked food can sell for hundreds of dollars, which is really unimaginable.
In the first three years of the crackdown, Li Yiming saw with his own eyes that many people were standing behind trucks with signs and being taken to shoot targets, and after that, the law and order of the whole society was much better.
Thirty years from now, if such a person were in this era, the grave grass would have to grow three times.
But those people should still be small children, how did they become like that?
Li Yiming looked at Zhang Wushen and Lao Yang, such two people, in the next few years, it is no surprise that they can accumulate a lot of wealth, at least tens of thousands of yuan such assets are indispensable.
And ten years later, thirty years later, the richest person is actually the old man Lao Jiu, that guy is estimated to be collecting all kinds of old goods at ordinary times, Li Yiming can imagine that there should be a lot of antiques in the broken house.
Of course, thirty years later, maybe he is dead.
This old Yang may not be there.
Father will grow old, and Uncle Zhang will grow old.
I will always be like my father.....
Do I have time?
Li Yiming looked inside and outside the restaurant, the tables, chairs, and wall stickers, as if he saw that with the passage of time, they became more and more old.
And these people in front of them are getting older and older, and finally disappearing, cars and pedestrians pass by the door, and the noise has turned into a sad melody in time......
"Why don't you eat it?" Uncle Zhang put a piece of braised pork in his bowl, "Eat more, grow more meat!"
Li Yiming hummed, and took two bites of rice with this meat, and several pieces were already piled up in the bowl.
"Yiming, this child eats so delicately, I see that other people's children are simply, alas, eating is like a war, you just finished adding food to him, he dared to hand over the bowl, as if he had been washed! Not to mention eating meat, but there is no way, the days are poor, there is no oil and water in the stomach, how can I stand the smell of this pork, then dare to serve a plate of meat during the New Year, and the king of the stove will rush to eat. Zhang Wushen said with a smile.
"Which is the stove lord robbing, is it the person who burns the meat to steal it..... When we went to the countryside to cut the queue for a big pot of rice, everyone grabbed it, but anyway, there were many vegetables and sweet potatoes in it, but I was not hungry, alas......"
Saying this, Li Jianguo turned his head to look at his son and nodded: "Son, you eat more, it's not enough to ask for more." ”
Li Yiming nodded, and wanted to point to the meat in the bowl and say to his father: Dad, the opportunity is not the meat in your bowl, but the ...... in everyone's pot The whole village gathered around a pot of meat, think about that scene!
The Americans, the British, the myself, and many, many others, which one is not like a wolf?
We can't eat slowly, the more people eat you will take the less, not to mention that they don't necessarily use chopsticks, they will use forks, knives, and big spoons,......
Not only will they rob and swallow, but they will also fight each other with both hands, and if you dare to blink your eyes, they may even snatch the pot for you...... They are all top-level hand speeds that have been trained in hundreds of years of actual combat!
By the way, it is also possible that they will not let you know that there is meat at all, and they will secretly eat it all behind closed doors, and then let you wash the dishes and carry the pot!
Those things I want to do, I need money, and money can really shorten the time to do things, the opportunity of an era only look back to know that there is not as much as imagined, the advantage will be accumulated, if you want to overtake in the corner, it also depends on whether others have such a noble style to let you overtake.
Are Americans willing?
Would the British be willing?
Do you want to?
Germans, French, Italians, Spaniards, Australians, Koreans, Indians, Vietnamese, Indonesians, will they be happy to watch China become strong, its people rich, and live happily?
Thirty years ago, the chairman said that imperialism will not die, and it will still be the same thirty years later!
Time can make a difference, but there are also things that can't.
