Chapter 10 A good start

Vehicles are being unloaded one after another. The pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info are all dump trucks, and the jacks are raised one by one, and in a few minutes, a cart of sand is dumped down.

This is the first batch of sand from the yard, which is unloaded on the innermost side of the yard. The sand that enters the field will slowly pile up from the inside out.

Mu Dong was at the door and set up a table. All cars that enter the field will be issued a card. When the vehicle was unloaded, Xie Donglin supervised the scene to ensure that it was completely unloaded. Then, Xie Donglin signed and stamped the card. When the driver goes out, he checks with his card. If you don't want to settle the bill at that time, collect your cards and settle the bill together before you get off work in the evening. There are now four battlefields available. The prices also vary, and Mudon also made some marks on the card.

In the morning, the driver felt fresh, and after unloading the car, he crowded in front of Mu Dong's table to settle the bill. After noon, the freshness passed, and every checkout was change, plus every car was checked, wasting a lot of time. Therefore, in the afternoon, no one checks out frequently, and they all collect their cards and plan to check out together in the evening.

Mu Dong was a little more free in the afternoon, handed over the work of issuing cards to Mu Daodao, and turned around himself.

First of all, he arranged for the second uncle to take a few workers to build two smaller houses in front of the tiled house that was built, and planned to use them as a house after they were built.

I took another look at the situation of the tiled house. Mu Dad is taking a few people to make joints in the red brick wall. Mu Dong took a look at the wall that had been hooked and seamed, it was very beautiful, and it didn't look rustic at all. Instead, there is a sense of going back to basics. Mu Dong remembered that there was a café in Quancheng, which was decorated in such a style, and he thought it was quite fresh at the time, and it turned out to be the simplest and the most beautiful.

I went to see the situation at Xie Guolin again. The young man was very energetic, directing the vehicle to reverse and unload, and was busy in all directions.

Mu Dong turned around for a while and felt that it was not a big deal. Wandered away from the yard and went to Mu Tongqing's battlefield not far away.

Mu Tongqing was directing the loading, and several cars were delivering sand to the Mudong yard.

Seeing Mu Dong coming, Mu Tongqing hurriedly ran over, with a smile on his face.

"Uncle, why do you still have time to come over when the yard is open today?" said and invited Mu Dong to the office.

Mu Tongqing's battlefield also built a few houses, but they were much shorter than the tiled houses built by Mu Dong.

Mu Dong said: "There's nothing to ask you to come." ”

Mu Tongqing: "Uncle, look at what you said, you have something to order." ”

The two sat down together, and Mu Dong explained his intentions. Overhead electricity.

Mu Tongqing's battlefield, although the scale is not large, has pulled wires from the village. The last time he came, Mu Dong had noticed. This time, I just wanted to connect the wire from Mu Tongqing.

When Mu Tongqing heard this, he smiled and said, "It's a trivial matter." I'm familiar with the electrician in charge of this part of town, I'll contact him and let him get it for you tomorrow. The two of us are close to each other, so we can erect a few cement poles. After a pause, he said: "Uncle, did you buy the wire? If you don't buy it, use mine, I bought too much when I set up the wire last time, and there are still some left, enough for you to use, you can rest assured of the quality, I bought all the good wires." ”

Mu Dong said: "Then you have helped a lot." How much is a meter, and you will be given money when it runs out. ”

Mu Tongqing said: "Forget the money, it's useless for me to keep it, I'll give it to your old man." ”

Mu Dong said: "Phew, am I that old?"

Also, although Mu Tongqing is young, he is several years older than Mu Dong.

Mu Tongqing said: "Of course you are not old, so I call you 'little' uncle." ”

The two laughed for a while, and Mu Dong said again: "Tongqing, how to calculate the electricity bill, am I connected to the front of your meter?

Mu Tongqing said: "Uncle, don't bury me, of course you are in front, you open a household by yourself, install the electricity meter by yourself, and pay the electricity bill by yourself." ”

How to connect the wire, that is said. If it is connected in front of the meter, it is equivalent to connecting the line and on the big line, just open an account and pay the bill, and the price is also according to the electricity price of the power supply.

If it is connected to the back, the electricity bill will have to be handed over to Mu Tongqing. As for the price of electricity, it should also be higher than the market price.

Because the wires of Mu Tongqing's house were erected from the village at his own expense and did not belong to the public power grid in the village, Mu Dong had this question.

Although the result had been expected, Mu Dong still had to ask. If you ask, it's a favor.

The two talked for a while, and Mu Dong told Mu Tongqing that the meter was recommended by the electrician and brought it directly. The favor was sufficient, and Mu Dong said goodbye and left.

The yard is still bustling with activity. The vehicles were unloaded in turn, and the forklifts were busy in all directions, piling up the unloaded sand high.

The sun is setting in the west. The drivers, who had been busy all day, were satisfied and received the money from Mu Dong's mobile phone and gradually dispersed.

The first day of business in the yard finally ended smoothly. Mu Dong counted in the evening, and a total of 115 truckloads of sand entered the market today, and a total of more than 6,000 yuan of purchase money was used.

The next day, the electrician came to the yard early in the morning. Mu Dong and a few workers quickly erected a few cement poles, smoothly connected the wires to the yard, and installed the electricity meter.

Because it will take a day or two for the house to be fully completed, the indoor wiring cannot be installed at the moment. Anyway, there is no need to bury dark wires, and it is directly installed with open wires. Mu Dong told the electrician to wait a day or two before asking him to help with the wiring.

At noon, Mu Dong left some money for Mu Daodao, asked him to be in charge of the settlement in the evening, and went to the county seat alone.

Mu Dong went to do two things this time. One is to go to my aunt to inquire about the guarantee, and the other is to buy things.

Mu Dong went to his aunt first. Mu Hong has already determined a guarantor, which is the head nurse mentioned last time. The other one hasn't been decided yet. Mu Hong asked Mu Dong to wait a few more days, and he had already asked a few people, and there would be an answer in the next few days. It's really not good, let Xiao Xiao come back next week. When Mu Dong was leaving, Mu Hongsai gave Mu Dong a bank card, and the card was 100,000 yuan.

Leaving his aunt's house, Mu Dong went to the mall. This time, Mu Dong plans to buy a bit much.

First of all, there are a few bunk beds, and there are already several people in the yard, and there may be more in the future. Prepare a few more beds so that you can rest later.

This is followed by two sets of desks and chairs, twenty ordinary chairs, a few ordinary small wooden tables, and a safe.

Then, Mu Dong went to buy three air conditioners, one cabinet machine, and two wall-mounted.

In the end, Mu Dong went to the largest grocery market in the county, purchased a large amount of 500 ml bottled mineral water, and agreed to let the supplier purchase it later, Mu Dong rented a small truck, loaded these items, and returned home. The air conditioning is not on the pick-up van and the mall is responsible for installing it.

Mu Dong bought these things with his own thoughts.

There are four tiled houses in total. The east side is a separate room, the middle side is a large room with two rooms, and the west side is also a separate room. According to the local name, the three rooms are called Easthouse, Hallhouse and Westinghouse.

Mudon planned that the East House would serve as the office and finance office. Now that it has just opened, you can get a broken table at the gate of the yard and you can pay money, but in the long run, it will definitely not be safe. So in this room of the East House, Mu Dong plans to install an anti-theft door, put a safe, and send money in the office when the settlement is made in the future. Also, you can't let the drivers crowd into the office, which is also unsafe. Mu Dong had already explained to Mu Dad when he built the house, and left a small window on the wall between the east house and the hall house. After that, the driver queued up in the hall to settle the bill.

The hall house has twice the space of the east house, and Mudong is used as a lounge. Put up some chairs so that drivers have a place to go when they rest, and when it comes to settlement, they don't have to stand and wait. Then sit and wait. There are chairs for you to sit on, and mineral water for you to drink.

Yes, mineral water. Mu Dong decided that starting tomorrow, each car will send a bottle of mineral water for every trip of sand. As for some drivers who don't like to drink cold water, that's no problem, and the lounge is also ready to boil water.

Westinghouse, which serves as a staff dormitory. The forklift driver is still living in a tent. Although the land has been leveled, the sand that comes in every day now needs to be stacked and sorted out by a forklift after unloading the truck. In the later stage, as the sand pile gets higher and higher, the role of the forklift will become more and more important.

As for the air conditioner, Mudon thinks so. The work in the yard is very hard, and it is necessary to have a comfortable rest environment after work. Whether it is his family or the workers, Mu Dong hopes that they can blow the air conditioner and take a comfortable rest after they are tired.

Moreover, once the price of sand soars in the later stage, the people around will know that they have made a lot of money in a short period of time, and now they will have some good causes, and they will avoid too many people from being jealous in the future.

In the afternoon, when he returned to the yard and arranged for workers to unload things from the small truck, Mu Dong distributed a bottle of mineral water to everyone present, and the driver who was checking out the bill also had it. And announced that it will only start tomorrow, and each car will be given a bottle of water for every trip. These drivers suddenly became excited, and if they made eight trips out of ten on this day, they would not be able to get a large bag of bottled water back.

It's worthless, but it's rare. Rural families, who have nothing to do to drink bottled water.

Mudong has his own ideas. Although the cash is now collecting, the speed is still too slow, and it is necessary to create some topics so that more drivers are willing to send sand over. This bottle of water, the supermarket buys more than a piece, and the price of Mu Dong's bulk purchase is 10 yuan for 24 bottles, with an average of more than four cents per bottle. Four cents, spread evenly on a cart of six or seven cubic meters of sand, the price cost is negligible.

In the evening, Mu Dong looked at Mu Daoguo's statistics, and a total of 136 truckloads of sand were imported throughout the day, slightly more than the day before.

September 13, the third day of the opening of the yard.

Early in the morning, there were significantly more vehicles entering the scene. The cash settlement, coupled with the gift of bottled mineral water, spread the news quickly among the drivers' circle.

In the morning, a few bosses from other battlefields came to talk about cooperation. Mu Dong's attitude is very enthusiastic, and he does not refuse, all 60 yuan per car, cash. There are still two requirements, "emerge from the top, screen".

Several bosses said that they could start delivering sand in the afternoon and left one after another.

There are several sand traffickers who specialize in transporting sand and have also come to inquire about cooperation. Mu Dong was a little embarrassed. Second-tier dealers generally make a living from selling. Now the price of the battlefield is mostly 60 yuan. Second-tier dealers generally send sand to a slightly farther place to make a difference. How to price them now, Mu Dong is a little difficult.

He cautiously proposed a price of 60 yuan, but he didn't expect the other party to agree. Mu Dong was a little puzzled and explained: "I have someone to supervise the unloading here, and I can't use any skills." ”。 This means that I can't engage in crooked ways here, and there is no loophole to exploit.

Several people laughed and explained to Mu Dong, and Mu Dong was relieved.

It turns out that in the upper reaches of the Mucun section of the Shuhe River, there are some places where the river surface is relatively wide and the water level is relatively shallow, so on both sides of the river, there are still some natural sand fields. It's just that the scale of these battlefields is too small, and large-scale development is not profitable at all. So some of the local villagers are just doing it in a small way. Get the smallest forklift, or some don't even have a forklift, and the price of each truck of sand is only twenty or thirty yuan.

These dealers plan to go there to load the car and sell it to Mudong. Although the road is farther, the profit is also okay, the key is that Boss Mu is here to cash and not in arrears. You can get how much money you make.

At noon, the finishing touches on the house were all completed, and the doors and windows were installed. The East House is also equipped with an anti-theft door. The house in front of the house was also built. Mu Ma and the second aunt were packing up their things in the room. A big stove was built in the house, and a gas stove was bought. Mu Ma and the second aunt ended the hard work of cooking in the open air in the wind and sun for a few days, and had their own brand new territory.

In the afternoon the electrician came to wire the house. There was a lamp in each room, a few sockets were reserved, it was not complicated, and it was quickly completed. In particular, Mu Dong installed two street lamps in front of the house and in front of the yard door. The street lights were purchased by electricians. There must be some reason to get closer to each other.

The mall also delivered air conditioning in the afternoon, and all three rooms were installed. The East and West Houses are hung up. Cabinet machine installed in the hall.

After the air conditioning was installed, everyone was busy decorating the room. There are two sets of desks and chairs in the east room, a bunk bed on the innermost side, a safe next to the bed, and a few chairs and a coffee table in the room.

The hall is a few ordinary tables and a dozen chairs. A few large thermos were also prepared.

The Westinghouse is a couple of bunk shelf beds and two tables with two chairs.

Everything was cleaned up, the air conditioner was turned on, everyone was resting in the house, and the cool feeling made everyone feel comfortable, and they all felt that Mu Dong was really thoughtful.

In the evening, when the drivers were sitting on chairs in the cool hall, drinking hot or cold water, waiting for the checkout, they felt that Mu Dong, the boss, was really different, no matter where it was.

Mu Dong was also very happy and looked at these drivers Zhile. Mu Dong felt that these drivers really did it, sitting, wet, etc.

Today is still Mu Dong's money, and after the statistics are over, there are a total of 173 cars.

In the evening, Mu Dong gathered his family and had dinner in the yard lounge. I also cook at home, there is everything in the yard room, a family plus two forklift drivers, and a big table is full. Mu Dong thanked everyone for their work in the past few days. And explained that he was going back to Quancheng tomorrow, and the explanation given by Mu Dong was: The yard has been built and opened, and he has to go back to report to the boss.

That's what I told you at the beginning, so the lie continues.

In fact, it's easy for everyone to accept it. If Mu Dong really stays in his hometown every day and is busy, some people will wonder what kind of big boss he is in Quancheng, why is his heart so big, take out hundreds of thousands, and don't care about it.

Mu Dong told everyone that they must be kind to every driver who comes to the yard and have a sense of service in their hearts. We invest so much just to make money, and without sand, we can't make money. The driver came to deliver the sand and help us make money. In addition, Mu Dong also said an important thing, pay attention to safety. This is also what Mu Dong suddenly thought of when he saw a driver get out of the car in the afternoon, and he almost fell. He specially instructed Xie Donglin. When directing the unloading of the truck, it is necessary to pay attention to safety.

Fourth day of opening, Sunday, September 14.

The morning was gloomy. Mu Dong took Mu Dad, went to the bank in the town, and withdrew 30,000 yuan. Now there are about 70,000 or more than 70,000 in cash on hand, plus these 30,000, which is enough for 100,000. After returning home, Mu Dong solemnly handed over the 100,000 yuan to Mu's father.

Now the daily amount of sand entering the yard needs about 10,000 yuan, which is no problem for seven or eight days. Mu Dong told Mu Dad that the money should still be kept in a secret place at home. Let Mu Dad go to the yard with 20,000 yuan in cash every day and hand it over to Mu Daodao. Leave the money every day, bring it back. As for the safe in the yard, it's just a pretense.

Then the two went to the yard together. Mu Dong explained to Mu Daodao about the daily settlement and asked him to make a record.

There were a lot of cars entering the market this morning, and the news was almost spreading. The nearby sand yards basically began to deliver goods to the Mu family yard.

The house was built. Mu Dong arranged new things for Mu Dad and Mu Ershu. Around the site, plant peppercorns and thorns. Thorns reproduce quickly, and with the cultivation of peppercorns, a thick natural protective wall can be formed in a year. And Sichuan pepper can be picked every year, which is also an income.

If you are a simple storage yard, you don't actually need this protection. It's just some sand, and no one comes to steal it. The point is, Mudon has other ideas. He needed a way to enclose the land.

At noon, Mu Dong asked Mu Daodao, and more than a hundred cards had been sent. It seems that today it broke through 200 cars, and it is not a big problem.

After lunch, Mu Dong left home and returned to Quancheng. The time for Mu Dong's application for a business trip has arrived, and he will go to the company tomorrow to report.

Mu Dong left Jinan on September 4, and it has been exactly 11 days since today. In addition to the time on the road, it took him about 10 days to quickly advance, contract the land, build the storage yard, and open smoothly, and it took three days after the opening to quickly open up the situation, and in the sand market near his hometown, he gained a firm foothold and became famous.

This was the first struggle of the traverser Mudon, and he got off to a good start.
