Volume 1: Don't be frivolous when you're young Chapter 12 Don't ask for anything

Zeng Renmin saw that his son would earn about 3,000 a day just today, which would be the same if the whole family added it to the income of more than a year before. Today I went with my son to see how to operate, I felt that I had a spectrum, it should be no problem to do some business on my own, and said in front of the whole family at dinner: "Seeing that my son worked for one day today is my income for one or two years, I thought about it and felt that I would also do business." ”

Zeng Hao heard his father say this, afraid that his father was blindly confident that the business was very good, and if he didn't meet his expectations at that time, he would be in trouble if he couldn't pass this hurdle. I thought about giving him a vaccination first and said: "Dad, first of all, it's good for you to do business, as the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, you have to be mentally prepared first." Don't look at my son, I sell two or three thousand a day, this is not something that can be achieved in ordinary business, and I am in a special situation. Ask my mom how much she makes in a day?"

Liu Feng comes back every night to keep accounts, this will hear his son say this, without thinking about it, he replied: "When the business is good, there can be more than 100 gross profits a day, and when the business is bad, it is only twenty or thirty. ”

After his mother finished speaking, Zeng Hao said to his father again: "I heard that there is no father, just take my mother as an example, it is estimated that there is an average income of about 50 per day, and it will be calculated according to 30 days a month, and you have to subtract the rain and the time for you to buy the goods, it will be 25 days according to 5 days, and multiply it by 50 is 1250, and you will have to throw out the fare when you buy the goods, the miscellaneous expenses of the stall every day, and the usual expenses, and the money in the goods." There are about five or six hundred left in a month. Isn't that so?"

Liu Feng saw that her son threw the problem to her again, she roughly calculated it in her heart, and said: "That's pretty much it, it's not bad, it's good to have two or three hundred a month." ”

Zeng Hao saw his mother reply, and said to his father: "I heard that there is no father, you want to look like two or three hundred a month, and it basically takes about half a year to a year to earn so much from me." Of course, telling you this is not to discourage your enthusiasm, but to tell you not to be blindly optimistic. Don't think about it too much, I still agree with you doing business. First of all, there is no other meaning, I will take out 1500 to distribute the goods to Dad, what do you think?"

Zeng Renmin saw his son say this, and hurriedly said: "What do I want your money for, I have it with your mother." ”

Hearing his father say this, Zeng Hao knew that he was embarrassed to use his son's, and explained: "Dad, I just said that there is no other meaning, I know you have money, but my mother should almost go to buy, you use this money to buy goods, and you can't convert money for a while, what should I do if my mother runs out of goods when the time comes, this money is a piece of paper on the body, only when it is used, it is money." I just have this, you don't have to refuse me, I will give you the money for the first distribution, and when you distribute the goods for the second time, you will have to pay out of your own pocket, I don't care. ”

The family is now like Zeng Hao said, this is the case. Zeng Renmin thought about it, he really couldn't take it out and buy this goods, and when the two of them had saved enough daylily, they could only use their son's money to shop the goods first, and then return them to him after the goods turned into money. After figuring it out, he didn't excuse himself, and said to his son: "That's okay, my son will use your money to shop the goods first, and I'll go tomorrow." ”

Zeng Hao heard his father say this, and felt a little wrong? Originally, he began to dislike him for making progress a little slowly, but his father was ready to run away. Only then did I understand the market, and I went to buy blindly before I thought about it, and most of the goods would be crushed to death in my own hands at that time. Hurriedly asked with concern: "Dad, have you decided what to do, you will go to buy tomorrow?"

Zeng Renmin heard his son ask this and said: "I've been thinking about it since I bought it yesterday, and now I've thought about it, or my son, what you suggested that day, I didn't do miscellaneous at the beginning, and I tried the water first when I made shoes." ”

Zeng Hao saw that his father was using his own advice, and it was impossible for him to slap himself in the face, and he had to trust his father. added: "Then you should start with less press." With that, he began to settle the remaining meals in the bowl.

The next day, according to the plan, Zeng Renmin went to buy goods early in the morning, and Zeng Hao and Liu Fang got up early to go out of the stall. Zeng Hao still sold seven or eight hundred pairs a day, thinking that the sales volume was almost like this every day, and he didn't know how long it would take to sell more than 18,000 pairs?

Zeng Hao thought that there was only half a day to rush to the market every day, and he could also use other times when the time came, and he didn't see his father when he went home in the afternoon. Thinking that my father would also go out to the stall tomorrow, it was definitely not enough to have only two bicycles at home, so my father should have gone out to borrow a car. So I took a few hundred yuan and rode a bicycle to the county seat, ready to buy one myself.

When I came to a place that sold bicycles in the county, at this time in 2000, the people were still relatively simple, and there would be no such phenomenon as a dog looking down on people, and generally not buying it would not go to see it. Even if you don't buy it, you won't ask the price, so when Zeng Hao came to the place where he bought the car, framed the car and walked in, the boss said hello, looked at it first, and went to his own business.

After comparing for a long time, I feel that this newly launched three-wheeled bicycle is the most suitable, and there are many goods. That is, when the goods are disposed of, both parents can use them. It's just that it's a bit hard to ride and the balance is not very easy to master. Zeng Hao asked the boss: "How did the boss sell this human-powered tricycle?"

The boss saw Zeng Hao asking the price, hurriedly put down the things in hand, walked to the side and said: "This is a new model, it has just been on the market for less than two years, and it used to be in big cities. One was sold in front, and another was here, this car is not very easy to sell, the price is much higher than that of a bicycle, and ordinary people can't use it, so if you want it, take it for 780. I'll keep it and take up space, and I'll sell it to you honestly. Do you have enough money, why don't you discuss it with your family first?"

Seeing Zeng Hao's half-grown child, the boss kindly reminded him that the price was expensive and he would discuss with his family before selling. After listening to the boss's offer, Zeng Hao knew that the price quoted was indeed the real price, not too high. There is a reason why you don't make money when you sell things, that is, it depends on how much you earn. After thinking about it, he said to the boss: "Boss, I won't give you a counteroffer, 800 If you want to, I will sell it directly today, if you don't want it, forget it, I'll buy a bicycle and go back." ”

The boss saw that Zeng Hao was so sure, and the cars he bought this year had not been sold yet, so he agreed after thinking about it.

Zeng Hao took out the money and settled the account, asked the boss to help oil the chain, put the bicycle on the back bucket he just bought, and first found an open place to practice, and then rode back when he felt about the same. After finally becoming proficient, ride home.

Zeng Renmin saw his son riding a car back and asked, "Where is this car borrowed?"

Zeng Hao got out of the car, pressed the brakes and hung them up first, and then explained to his father: "Isn't this that you are going to go out of the stall tomorrow? You see a radius of several miles, although the family's bicycle is not used. Besides, to borrow a bicycle and say that it is a camel goods, it is so easy to borrow. If they borrow such heavy goods every day, they will definitely not do it. ”

Feeling that his father was told that he was in his heart, Zeng Hao smiled and asked his father: "When I first came back, I didn't see you back home, you won't go to borrow a bicycle, right?"

Zeng Renmin heard his son say this, his old face turned red, and he didn't answer, so he unloaded the bicycle and pushed the door to go about his own business.

At dinner, Zeng Hao told his mother about this incident as a joke, and after hearing about it, Liu Feng mocked at her husband: "If you tell me first, I definitely don't want you to go, and you don't look at what kind of people you are here. Usually you often say that I am wrong, and tell me not to worry about this. You see, you can't borrow a car for emergencies. Your eldest brother ...... a few days ago."

"It's not over yet, isn't it, eat your meal. As soon as Liu Fenggang said this, Zeng Renmin hurriedly interrupted her. Zeng Hao sat next to him and watched the battle, thinking that there should be something he didn't want to hear.

Liu Feng saw that her husband was in a hurry, so she grinned and didn't say anything more. Zeng Hao saw that the atmosphere suddenly became a little embarrassing, and hurriedly interjected: "Mom and Dad, don't talk about it, eat and eat, it's not like I went to buy a car in the afternoon, we have it ourselves, and it's best not to ask for anything." ”
