Chapter 25 Continue to repair the machine
The freshmen are still very curious about everything, but in Liu Xiangdong's heart, nothing is new.
After getting the new textbook, just read it once, and most of the knowledge came back, except for the high math and still need to listen carefully, he can not take other classes, and he can also pass the exam.
While the freshmen were still enjoying their new college life, Liu Xiangdong had to start thinking about how to make money to build a red brick house for his family.
In the second OOO year, 60,000 yuan should be enough to build a two-story red brick house in the countryside, including the interior decoration.
Liu Xiangdong has more than 20,000 yuan left in his family, and as long as he earns another 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, his family can build a new house.
Helping private factories repair machines is a good way, and Liu Xiangdong will certainly not give up. Repairing the machine can only be done on Saturdays and Sundays, and although Liu Xiangdong wants to make money, he doesn't want to leave a bad record for skipping classes for the school.
In addition to repairing the machine on Saturday and Sunday, what can be done from Monday to Friday?
Liu Xiangdong remembered that when he was in college in his previous life, he thought about becoming an amateur writer, and wrote two martial arts novels, but the result was that he didn't finish each one, and he only wrote 50,000 or 60,000 words at most. Finally, Liu Xiangdong has never sent his works to any institution.
From Monday to Friday, I write two strokes when I have free time, which is a good note. Of course, Liu Xiangdong's goal in writing this time is no longer an amateur writer, but he wants to make money to build a house for his family. If you want to make money, you have to write things in the direction of commercial popularity.
Liu Xiangdong still remembers what was popular after the second OOO year.
Motivational essays in the second OOO year have not yet become popular, but after the second OOO year, bookstores are full of chicken soup essays.
The success of the second OOO year is still only a small number of knows, but after the second OOO year, Huaxia is full of success lecturers.
Liu Xiangdong plans to write two short books.
One is "Chicken Soup for the Soul" and the other is "You Can Succeed Too".
While his name as the top science student in X province has not completely disappeared, Liu Xiangdong estimates that as long as he writes well, the possibility of publication is still very high. As long as the top student in the science college entrance examination in X province is written on the cover, it must be able to sell a lot.
Liu Xiangdong remembers a lot of chicken soup texts, and he can write some from memory, and find information for others.
Success learning has long been popular abroad, everyone copies it, and no one will pursue your copyright.
The brothers in the dormitory found that Liu Xiangdong ran to the library as long as he didn't have classes, and they all sighed that the learning attitude of the top student in the college entrance examination was really admirable, and they didn't know that Liu Xiangdong was only thinking about how to make money in his mind now.
Occasionally, Liu Xiangdong will remember his oath before his rebirth: never be a rich man.
To earn money for the family to build a house, Liu Xiangdong felt that he had not broken his oath.
From Monday to Friday, when he was in class, others were listening to the lecture and taking notes, but Liu Xiangdong slowly wrote his chicken soup essay paragraph by paragraph.
When Saturday came, Shen Hong and Yao Shijing didn't take the initiative to contact Liu Xiangdong, probably because they had made new friends, and they felt that girls shouldn't be too active.
Shen Hong and Yao Shijing did not take the initiative to contact, and Liu Xiangdong was not disappointed, he was just about to go out to run his own repair business.
First, I went to the telecommunications department and spent 700 yuan to set up a Chinese BB machine. Then in a place where business cards were printed, I spent sixty dollars to print two boxes of business cards.
The business card reads: Xiangdong Machinery Maintenance Department, and below is Liu Xiangdong's name and BB machine number.
Behind the business card, it is written that there are more than a dozen of the most common types of machinery that can be repaired.
Riding a second-hand bicycle bought for fifty yuan, Liu Xiangdong began his own life as a businessman.
I bought a phone book, and started in the first week from the East District of City B.
On Saturday, Liu Xiangdong sent out 14 business cards, some factories were allowed to enter, and some factories were not allowed to enter, but he still left his business cards with the doorman.
On Sunday, Liu Xiangdong sent out 17 more business cards, but the street sweeping in the East District was still not completed.
The business card was spilled out, and it was just waiting for the fish to take the bait.
On Monday and Tuesday, there was no movement at all.
During class on Wednesday, the BB machine finally vibrate, and Liu Xiangdong looked at the phone number displayed, took out the phone book and checked it, it was a phone in a factory office.
After class, Liu Xiangdong immediately ran to the school's magnetic card telephone to dial the number.
"Hello, I'm Liu Xiangdong, may I ask the one who hit my BB machine. ”
"Hello Liu Gong, I am the technical director of XX factory, I wonder if you can repair the XXX machine?"
"Can you tell me what the problem is, when did you buy the machine, and why didn't the equipment manufacturer give you a warranty?"
The other party patiently answered Liu Xiangdong's question, and finally Liu Xiangdong agreed to go to the factory on Saturday to have a look, and made an appointment with the supervisor surnamed Ye.
Hanging up the phone, Liu Xiangdong couldn't help but stretch out his scissor hand and shook it, the first business came!
On Thursday, there was another movement on the BB machine, and after Liu Xiangdong called back, he made an appointment to go to see it on Sunday.
On Saturday, after Liu Xiangdong walked out of the campus, he found a place to change into his prepared work clothes, put on a work backpack, and rode a second-hand bicycle to the first work point.
After meeting with Director Ye, seeing Liu Xiangdong dressed professionally, Director Ye did not suspect his identity.
The first order of business was not too difficult, Liu Xiangdong spent more than an hour to troubleshoot, and the machine turned again.
Director Ye handed over a red envelope, Liu Xiangdong didn't open it on the spot, and put it in his backpack casually. Director Ye warmly invited Liu Xiangdong to have lunch in the factory, but Liu Xiangdong politely declined.
After eating a simple Chinese meal outside, Liu Xiangdong continued to hand out business cards to factories that did not issue business cards.
When he returned to the dormitory in the evening, Liu Xiangdong quietly opened the red envelope and counted it, and today's income of 1,000 yuan is a good start.
On Sunday, Liu Xiangdong was going to the second work site. The supervisor who received Liu Xiangdong saw Liu Xiangdong's broken bicycle and cast a suspicious look at Liu Xiangdong.
Liu Xiangdong thought to himself, when I do a few more orders, I will go to change to a second-hand motorcycle, anyway, now that the driver's license is not strictly controlled, I can buy one.
Although Liu Xiangdong rides a broken bicycle, his repair skills are first-class. The problem that seemed complicated to the supervisor was solved casually in Liu Xiangdong's hands.
After getting the second income, Liu Xiangdong continued to work by himself to distribute business cards.
The second income is also a thousand dollars.
On the National Day, Shen Hong went to Donghua Institute of Technology to find Yao Shijing and Liu Xiangdong, saying that he wanted to continue to eat big food. Liu Xiangdong just earned 2,000 yuan, but he spent 1,000 yuan in three days on the National Day.
Yao Shijing felt embarrassed, but Liu Xiangdong didn't care, he could earn it if he could spend it, as long as he could make money, he was not afraid to spend money.
Seeing Yao Shijing's worried look, Liu Xiangdong had no choice but to tell her: "Shijing, don't worry, I now go out to help the factory repair machines on Saturdays and Sundays, and I can earn 2,000 yuan a week." ”
"Ah, really? Many front-line workers in factories don't earn 2,000 yuan a month, and you earn 2,000 yuan a week, so don't be angry with them. You still have to go to class, will it affect your studies?"
"Don't worry, I'm the champion, I'm a great talent, I can just read books in those classes, and I don't have to go to class at all. ”
"I know you're awesome, but be careful of skipping class and getting caught. ”
"Don't worry, I never skip class. ”
"I'm sorry I can't help you with what you're doing. ”
"Maybe I'll need your help in the future. ”
"Really, you can speak if you need my help. ”
What Liu Xiangdong thought was that when his business became bigger, he would let Yao Shijing help him answer the phone, he was the boss, and it was a bit embarrassing to always answer the phone in person.
After the National Day, Liu Xiangdong's business has been very stable, with two or three orders per week.
Two months later, almost all the private enterprises in City B, Liu Xiangdong, spread their business cards, and as Liu Xiangdong became more and more businessmen, his fame also spread among the private enterprises in City B.
After the tenth business, Liu Xiangdong spent 3,000 yuan to buy a second-hand motorcycle, of course, he didn't dare to drive back to school, but rented a place outside the school, and put his motorcycle, work clothes and work backpack. It was really convenient to ride a bicycle out of school in the future and go to this place to change clothes and motorcycles.
