It is said that the renovation of the Ota Building shop ended ahead of schedule, and the shop owner handed over the key to the tenant on the 12th.

In the summer, I hurriedly invited a seller who operated square steel shelves to measure the size, assemble the two-layer shelves, and bought back two steel nets for the ceiling from Liyuan Road, and quickly hung them on the steel trough of the I-beam. In this way, it is convenient to operate the goods to be sold in the future.

Fan Ting was not idle, and went to the tenth floor of Hurun Building on Hubei Road with her sister Fan Huan, and a housekeeping service company run by a lawyer couple hired a little girl named Zhu Kaihong as a salesperson, and agreed on a monthly salary of 400 yuan for food and accommodation.

Later, according to the needs of the fresh flower preservation experience introduced by Miss Cheng Xiaoling, Xia and Fan Ting both came to Maoye Department Store and Heping Store and purchased a large fresh-keeping cabinet and a refrigerator. These things were delivered to the store, and the vases and other goods that had been purchased were placed on the shelves, except for the flowers that were not purchased, and a flower shop waited to open in a decent manner.

In the evening, the family gathered in the living room to discuss the final preparations before the opening. Fan Huan and her college-educated daughter Xie Huan also came to Xia's house. Xia said: "My small shop is about to open in two days, what is the name of it? With a character like me, who is neither humble nor arrogant, and has never done business, staying in the shop is equivalent to putting a piece of hard bone in a bowl to boil, and it takes time to boil the flavor." However, the management style should be told to the customers in advance, I thought about it, is the name of this store, it is called 'casual come', which means: you come or not, feel free, you come, whether you stay for a long time or walk while watching, it is also casual, you come, whether you buy or not, it is even more casual. ”

After hearing this, Xie Huan said: "Uncle, it's better to call it 'arbitrary', and don't want the word 'come'?"

Fan Ting said: "I think there is still to be the word 'come', how can we sell if the customers don't come? Besides, only the word 'casual' will be misinterpreted by people as arbitrary in terms of price, if this is the case, there will be endless troubles." ”

So, I decided to choose the name "Feel free to come to the flower shop" and ask someone to make a signboard and print a business card.

On the morning of January 15, 2000, I went to Shenzhen Agricultural Science Center in the summer to buy a batch of flower bonsai. In the afternoon, together with Fan Ting, they went to Lotus Mountain to purchase roses, lilies, carnations, chrysanthemums, gerberas, starry sky, sunflower leaves and other flowers.

After dinner, in the summer, it is also the first time for the eldest girl to get married, in the half-pulled and half-closed store, according to the perceptual understanding of the opening flower basket that she has initially observed, she learns by doing, inserts a three-story opening flower basket, and when she prepares to open tomorrow, she places it at the door of her store to attract customers. Maybe it's because of the novice, or maybe it's pondering the artistic conception of beauty, this kind of three-layer flower basket that can be inserted in 20 minutes later has been fiddling with the summer hand for more than an hour. After the flower basket was planted, I looked at it in the summer and was quite satisfied. He said to himself, "It's hard at the beginning. With the first time, it is easy to grasp the rules of it. ”

At eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, the summer couple and Zhu Kaihong came to the door of the store, opened the door, opened the iron gate, swung the flower basket to the door, dragged out the flower stand from the inside, and put a bonsai on the other side, which was considered open.

Interestingly, at the end of the day, in addition to selling some sporadic flowers and bonsai, the first bouquet of flowers wrapped in the flower shop was actually Miss Ren, a salesman of Dasen Real Estate Company, whom she and Fan Ting met because of the purchase of a shop. When bandaging this bouquet of round flowers, the kind summer of the house gave a few gladiolias - that is, flowers called "backgammon" in flower language to match the lily in the middle to make the bouquet fuller. However, aesthetics is a science of uncertainty, and it focuses on irregular beauty. Some people say: the beauty of defects is the real beauty. If you are willing to study, you will find that it is difficult to find a national standard or international standard for beauty. For the same thing, people have different opinions on why it is beautiful and where it is. Therefore, the so-called beauty has become: beauty has a basis, but beauty has no basis, and beauty has a fixed basis, but beauty has no basis. Official: After reading these sixteen-character mantras, do you feel the same way? Let's just say that when this young lady came to the flower shop to get the bouquet, she saw a few gladiolus inserted at the unprovoked end, and she felt that it was not beautiful, and the boss was unhappy in her heart, and she muttered a few ugly words, and took the flowers away very happily. Who knows, she took this bouquet of flowers to the company, and after being seen by her colleagues, she said that it was beautiful, and asked the price, and asked where to bandage it? These colleagues asked for the address, and they had a bottom in their hearts.

Speaking of the time when the flower shop opened, it was in the peak season of flower sales, and the business was getting better day by day. Most of the employees of Omori are young people, and since the first bouquet of flowers for Miss Ren and the momentary kindness of dressing this bouquet in the summer, Omori itself and its employees have been buying flowers from time to time at the flower shop. One night, Zhang Jiayi, the treasurer of Omori Company, lined up in front of the flower shop with seven or eight young men and women. To wrap a bouquet of flowers at the same time, insert two festive flower baskets. The shop next to him was amazed: "Why is his business so good!"

The flower shop was open for a while, and the Hongtu Flower Shop, the Friendship Flower Shop, the Hundred Gardens, the Garden of Eden, the Alice Flower Shop, and the two stall operators who sold odd flowers less than 200 meters away from the random flower shop began to become jealous. The summer couple didn't mind that.

As the saying goes: Business is done by everyone. On the same street, doing the same business, some people lose money, and some people make money, who is to blame? They should only blame their parents for their innate insufficiency, and they are a little lazy the day after tomorrow, so that they do not have enough understanding and are not proficient in their studies. On the other hand, if you come to the flower shop at will, the operator is a professional management person who has managed large and medium-sized state-owned enterprises and made great contributions to its resurrection, and uses his rich theoretical knowledge and practical experience in enterprise management to operate a flower shop.

Later, the flower shops with the names on them closed their doors one after another to avoid the sharp edge of random flower shops. - That's an afterword.

The words are divided into two ends, one for each side.

In other words, the Citizens Bank has gone very fast in computer office automation, which is very advanced in one sentence. From the chairman of the board of directors and the president of the head office to the third-level managers and middle-level cadres of the branches, they all have their own authorizations and passwords, and only by entering the corresponding passwords can they access their respective documents on the local area network of the Citizens Bank. In this way, the documents generally uploaded and issued by various business departments are transmitted paperless on the computer.

Although the strength and rumors of the personnel adjustment of the Hubei branch have fermented among various departments of the head office, this is not a new thing in the Citizens Bank controlled by Shen Yifeng. As long as the science and technology department of the head office that made the computer cipher disk does not receive the notice of replacing the computer data, no matter how the department position of the relevant sub-branch changes, the sub-branch can only receive the documents from the head office by the original authorized person.

It is said that after he was dismissed from the post of director of the capital and credit department in October, Hu Hui was worried that filling the vacancy immediately would cause unfavorable pretext to himself, so he did not immediately call the proposed Wang Zhaojun and Lu Daniu to take up posts in the branch. The computer he used in the summer was used by Li Yanheng, assistant to the president, but he could not open the documents sent by the credit department and other professional departments of the head office. And Xu Aiqun and Xu Donghai, who were dismissed successively like Summer, also have their own authorization plates and have corresponding business documents.

On this day, the People's Bank of China issued a document notice on the office automation system: the head office held a joint meeting of the credit department and the office on January 28 to study and summarize the main business work of the whole bank, and required all branches to make a summary, and at the same time, the director of the office of the branch, the director of the capital and credit department, and the director of the product development department must be on time.

On the morning of the 28th, in the comprehensive conference room of the head office of the People's Bank of China, the directors of the office offices, the directors of the credit department and the directors of the product development department of each branch came one after another and signed the sign-in book. At nine o'clock, President Huang Lu and Vice President Shen Yimin entered the venue accompanied by Hao Jianguang. After Huang Lu sat down, he asked the office director next to him: "Have all the branches arrived?"

The director said: "The people from the Hubei branch have not arrived, and the rest have arrived." ”

Huang Lu said: "Regardless of him! We can't let the comrades of the head office and other comrades of the branches, and everyone still has the concept of discipline and the concept of superiors and subordinates." Now for the meeting!"

At this time, Shen Yimin hooked his head and asked Hao Jianguang: "The Hubei branch will not meet, is there any special situation?"

Hao Jianguang whispered, "I didn't ask this time. However, that summer was a bit of a strange thing, and I did not attend the last three meetings of the directors of the treasury and credit department. ”

Shen Yimin asked, "Have you asked his governor for the reason?"

Hao Jianguang said: "I asked Chen Hong to call Hu Hui, the president of the Hubei branch, directly, but I couldn't get in touch. ”

Shen Yimin said: "You asked Chen Hong to go directly to Chen Homework in my name, ask why Xia didn't come to the head office meeting, and asked her to tell me directly." ”

Hao Jianguang came to Chen Hong's side and whispered a few words to her, Chen Hong stood up and went to the office of the credit department to make a call.

Ten minutes later, Chen Hong stood between Shen Yimin and Hao Jianguang, and said to Shen Yimin emphatically: "President Chen of the Hubei branch said that he had been dismissed as early as October in the summer, and according to him, it seems that he had gone to work elsewhere. And Xu Aiqun and Xu Donghai, who are going to attend the meeting today, have also left the Hubei branch. ”

Shen Yimin asked, "After they leave, there will always be someone to replace them, why don't they come to the meeting?"

Chen Hong looked at Hao Jianguang and gradually blushed.

At this time, Hao Jianguang said: "The meeting notice is notified by the office in the automated office system, and others may not see it. ”

Shen Yimin said: "Presumably, this is the reason why no one attended the first few credit meetings, and no one from the Hubei branch participated, right?"

Hao Jianguang didn't dare to squeak.

Shen Yimin thought in his heart: "It seems that I contacted me once in the summer, and I felt that there was no follow-up, so I considered leaving." But I couldn't help him much. It's just that it doesn't affect the 'two clearances' work of the Hubei Branch. ”

Fan Ting and Summer are carefully running a random floral shop, and the more they get involved, the more interested they become. As the Spring Festival approaches, business is getting better and better, with sales of more than 500 yuan per day, which is not difficult to reach 15,000 yuan in sales for the whole month. In this way, the gross profit can be close to 10,000 yuan, deducting more than 3,000 yuan in expenses and rent, and you can earn 5,000 yuan at least. In fact, to earn this money every month, there is no mental pressure, the labor intensity is not large, and the family also hires a person who can take turns to do housework, sanitation or something.

In the summer, when he saw the business situation of the flower shop, he said to Fan Ting proudly: "In 1961, when I was four years old, because my mother responded to the government's call, the whole family returned to the rural hometown from the county seat. My experience in the countryside is that as long as you work hard, you will live a better life than others, and you never have to worry about your livelihood, because there are fields and land in the countryside. In the city, there is always a lot of concern about eliminating the risk of family survival, that is, there are always risks and uncertainties. We have this small shop, which is a good choice for families living in the city in the future to support their families and strengthen their courage with the store. Even if the child joins the work in the future, it is necessary to make the front store and the back home, and the family has both part-time work and bosses, so as to maintain a multi-dimensional livelihood model. In this way, even if one of them loses his job, the family can continue to survive in the city. ”

After Fan Ting was transferred to Shenzhen, she has been working as a financial supervisor in a company directly under the head office of the Special Economic Zone. However, more people have seen the "great difficulties" of Shenzhen enterprises and the dilemma of the ship turning around, and I also empathize with the feelings of summer. He echoed and said: "We have accumulated some experience now, and in the future, Xia Yu will work and get married, so we will ask our daughter-in-law to open a shop, and Xia Yu will go to work, so that the family will not be afraid of wind and grass." ”

Summer agreed.

One day, the president of a branch of the Bank of Communications located on Huaqiang North Road learned about the summer situation through a friend, and went to the branch in Shenzhen to ask for instructions, preparing to take the summer over. However, the above opinion is that considering the age of the summer, it is necessary to consider the transfer procedure after a period of probation. The president seemed to be very confident in inviting him to work as a credit salesman in the branch in the summer, and then coordinate with the head office on the issue of formal transfer after he had gained a firm foothold.

After hearing this, Summer expressed his gratitude to the president for his kindness and enthusiasm. Then, he said to the friend who introduced him: I still act as the flower seller in the Song Dynasty Jiang Jie's pen to be more freehand, you see, how well he wrote the words called "Zhaojun Resentment Flower Seller":

Although the burden is small, white, white, red and red are good, and they have been sold to the east of the lane and the west of the lane.

Official: As a credit manager under both corporate systems of the same bank, Xia was relieved of the burden on his shoulders after four years of being the right and wrong person in charge of the loan handler and presiding over the collection of old loans as the main organizer of the branch after the Citizens Bank took over. Once the pressure is gone, a kind of fatigue of "unintentional hard work" is naturally released. At this time, let Xia more truly understand the old Mr. Tao Yuanming, who wrote "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", why he came from a bureaucratic family, when he was just forty years old, he resigned and returned to the country, and worked for himself. And when he was leisurely, he picked up his wine glass and hummed a famous sentence:

…… Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely see the South Mountain.

…… There is a true meaning in this, and I have forgotten to distinguish it.

In this way, after experiencing the toss and turns of Hu Hui and Shen Yifeng, a senior financial worker in his early forties, a copyright holder with more than 300,000 words of economic and financial papers, an expert and insider who holds the potential collection of billions of old loans from the People's Bank, a tough guy who advocates the life realm of "entering without seeking fame and retreating without avoiding trouble", and a tough guy who dares to assume historical responsibilities but disdains to be in the company of those who run for official positions, and a tough guy who believes that "there is no best, only better" After some comparison, I feel that being a self-employed person and a flower seller is more freehand, easier and more leisurely than working in the Citizens Bank. It is conceivable how bad and unsatisfactory the working environment of Shenzhen Min's Bank at this time is under the manipulation of Shen Yifeng for several years!

In the summer, he was able to establish the world with his words, and he was able to grow and harvest his own martial arts; when he was in power, he was able to strategize and guide the country, and after leaving his post, he was able to do his own work and support his family, and his ability to make a living and support his family was further demonstrated in running a flower shop. He is continuing to write the immortal legend of his ups and downs, but the ups and downs of his life.

In the summer, the couple came to the flower shop at will, made small profits and quick turnover, carefully cultivated the customer base, and carefully operated the actions and mentality of self-employment, and there is a poem that can be used as a footnote:

The firepower can't sell the ground, and the yellow chrysanthemum blooms before the chaos;

Self-cultivation and self-sufficiency, who knows that Yao Shun is my king!
