In the 90s, MLM was popular, and western Guangdong and Xin'an were the hardest hit areas.

As the provincial capital of Xin'an, Luzhou has a huge flow of people and convenient transportation, so it is naturally a place where MLM gangs like to be stationed.

Xiong Baizhou traveled south and north in his previous life, and as soon as this voice spoke, he knew that he had encountered a pyramid scheme.

There are not so many complicated schemes in MLM now, the harm to society has not yet been fully reflected, and the public's defensive psychology is not as strong as it was more than ten years later.

Xiong Baizhou stopped and looked at the person who spoke, who was in his 30s, still wearing glasses, and looked polite, but as long as he spoke, his expression was very rich, and he was a person who was very good at expressing emotions with body language.

He thought Xiong Baizhou was interested, took out his notebook, and excitedly introduced: "Little brother, look at your dress as if you haven't studied, it's really not easy to make money at such a young age, but now there is a good opportunity, tonight at 10 o'clock, social economist Zhao Hong will give a lecture in the classroom, the content is how to find the idea of making a fortune, I suggest you listen to it, after listening to it to ensure that it is useful." ”

Xiong Baizhou couldn't help but laugh, and even dared to put the label of "social economist" on his body.

"What's your name and how old are you?" Xiong Baizhou asked rhetorically with interest.

The man with the eyes was a little unhappy, and corrected seriously: "My name is Tang Shude, Tang of the Tang Dynasty, the tree of trees, and the virtue of virtue, but if you want to call me Teacher Tang, I must be older than you."

At this time, Chen Qingyun and Sheng Yuanqing thought that Xiong Baizhou was in trouble, so they hurriedly ran up and stared at "Teacher Tang" with scrutiny.

Tang Shude looked a little tangled, he originally thought that Xiong Baizhou was alone, just to make up the number of people, this month Tang Shude's sales were not up to standard, and the upper echelons were very dissatisfied with his performance.

Although Tang Shude is mixed in pyramid schemes, his eloquence is also very good, but he is not very bold, he is always worried that he will be arrested by the police for deceiving people, and under this kind of mental burden, his performance is naturally not very good, and finally he was reduced from a lecturer to a part-time job to do the task of "distributing leaflets on the street".

Looking at the two sturdy teenagers who suddenly appeared, Tang Shude didn't want to cause trouble, so he wanted to retreat.

"Where is your company", I didn't expect Xiong Baizhou to take the initiative to ask.

"Beihai", Tang Shude replied honestly.

There is no way to be honest, because Sheng Yuanqing has already blocked his retreat.

"It's still a southern pyramid scheme," Xiong Baizhou pondered in his heart.

That's right, Shaolin Temple has north and south, and MLM also has it, and the characteristics are different:

The northern pyramid schemes generally come from Jizhou, Ludi, etc., eating big pots of rice, sleeping on the floor, and calling brothers and sisters, but those who resist will be violently detained and beaten;

The southern MLM is generally in the western part of Guangdong, southern Hunan, and Xin'an, where they come and go freely and attend classes in a centralized manner, but the hierarchy is relatively strict.

"Let's go, where is that Teacher Zhao lecturing, let's also listen" Xiong Baizhou thought to himself that he was idle, and he was idle, to listen to how the MLM in 94 brainwashed the class.

Tang Shude also saw at this time that these three people were not good at stubble, so he rubbed and said: "I suddenly remembered, the number of people is full today, you can listen to it next time."

With a "snap" slap, Tang Shude's head was hit hard, Sheng Yuanqing usually does rough work, and he has a lot of strength, and Tang Shude's tears are about to be beaten.

Although Sheng Yuanqing was reckless, he was very well-behaved in front of Xiong Baizhou, this time he frowned after noticing Xiong Bai's rejection, and was finally able to make a correct judgment and reaction based on the actual situation.

I have to say that reading thousands of books, traveling thousands of miles, and reading countless people are all ways to improve one's own accumulation, and Sheng Yuanqing, a young reckless man, can gradually keep up with Xiong Baizhou's rhythm in his own way.

Xiong Baizhou's expression was calm, he looked at Tang Shude, who was hugging his head and grieving, and spit out two words: "Lead the way."

It is said to be a classroom, but it is actually a private house, with dozens of benches, dazzling incandescent lights, and a mobile blackboard, where more than 60 people have gathered, and it is noisy.

Tang Shude walked in front aggrievedly, Xiong Baizhou and the three followed, and when they walked into the door, some people actually praised: "Old Tang, you can develop three students on the street last time." ”

Tang Shude looked a little embarrassed.

Xiong Baizhou and the three of them were arranged in a corner, and there were still a few people here, Xiong Baizhou looked at it and asked, "Are these all deceived by you?"

Xiong Baizhou said very directly, and Tang Shude's expression became lively again because he was surrounded by his own people: "Little brother, I can also see that you don't really want to make money." Although you seem to be able to fight, there are more of us, so I advise you to listen to this lesson honestly, and then leave obediently, our company is free to come and go, just don't cause trouble."

Xiong Baizhou smiled after hearing this, and said mischievously: "Believe it or not, if I call the police here, you won't be able to start this lesson." ”

Tang Shude took a closer look at Xiong Baizhou a few times, and said a little helplessly: "Count me Tang someone who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, I don't know the immortals who have provoked you along the way, the rivers and lakes are far away, and I ask the little brother to raise his noble hand."

Xiong Baizhou sat down and did not speak.

Tang Shude had no choice but to sigh and sit down at this corner, he had made up his mind to be optimistic about guarding against Xiong Baizhou.

At about 10 o'clock, he walked into a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, who also looked a little intellectual at first glance, he walked to the blackboard and introduced himself first: "Dear friends, my name is Zhao Hong, I am tonight's lecturer, I am the chief economic adviser of the Luzhou Municipal Government, and a member of the think tank of the Xin'an Provincial Government······"

After a series of identity boasts, this person named Zhao Hong introduced the other lecturers of the team, Tang Shude, who was also a "senior" policy speaker, which was unexpected by Xiong Baizhou.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Hong began to lure the audience to join through the so-called "government support", "capital operation", "inside information" and other means, but Xiong Baizhou listened to it tastelessly.

The essence of MLM is "pyramid sales", through the payment of entry fees to obtain the qualifications to join, and then the development of downlines to form a hierarchical relationship, and finally the formation of multi-level remuneration, in short, is the entry fee, pulling heads and team remuneration.

Of course, in order to achieve this goal, different gangs adopt different forms and methods, for example, Tang Shude's gang, the first incentive means is to invite the "students" present to have supper.

Of course, if you don't play tricks at supper, it's not a pyramid scheme.

Through different positions in the organization, the quality of the supper received is also different, these ordinary listeners who have not joined the club are a white steamed bun, Tang Shude has meat to eat at that level, and Zhao Hong actually has chicken legs and milk.

In this daily way of life, people at the bottom of the pyramid are constantly motivated to have the spirit of "climbing" upwards.

Xiong Baizhou looked at the steamed bun in his hand, suddenly stood up, and walked straight to the podium.

"What are you going to do", Tang Shude asked a little flustered, and asked in a suppressed voice.

"Lao Tzu wants to eat that chicken leg".
