Chapter 57: Finding Business Opportunities

Long Yifeng came out of Ouyang Wenchang's house and has been thinking about a question, how to inherit and develop Miao culture?

Although Ouyang Wenchang's eldest brother told him that his main task at present is to study hard and get into a good school. However, Long Yifeng knew his strength, with his learning ability and energy, if he only did so many things now, it would be a waste. Moreover, Ouyang Wenchang also said that the more underdeveloped the place, the more opportunities there are.

Long Yifeng felt that he should not only study and cultivate well, but also look for some new development opportunities.

Through chatting with Ouyang Wenchang, he knew that up to now, the Miao Society is mainly engaged in Miao cultural research and the protection of Miao cultural relics. At the same time, although Brother Wenchang did not say it explicitly, Long Yifeng understood from his words that no matter what work he does, it is necessary to have a strong economic foundation. For example, it takes money to invite experts and scholars to study a certain project, it also needs money to protect cultural relics, and it also needs money to carry out national culture seminars.

Even, in the face of the current epidemic of part-time work, Brother Wenchang is also mixed, he believes that going out to work has improved the living standards of the local people, but because of the long-term life outside, the Miao people will become more and more alienated from the local cultural life, if the Miao compatriots are willing to abide by their homeland, absolutely need a certain economic foundation, or have an environment that can provide them with work.

How can we lay a good economic foundation?

Long Yifeng has read ancient books since he was a child, and he knows the meaning of "if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world." If he does not have a good economic foundation, how can he talk about helping the world at the same time? Long Yifeng thought that he needed to be provided by his parents every month for his living expenses, and felt that he really lived up to the identity of the inheritor of Chiyou.

How can we be rich? Long Yifeng pondered this question as he walked.

When I walked to the school, I happened to meet Gao Linxiong and Zou Jinquan walking out of the school gate together, and after asking, I learned that they were going to play two football games again. Since learning football confrontation in the game room, Zou Jinquan has often played a few games with Gao Linxiong. Gao Linxiong wasn't too interested in that thing, but Zou Jinquan was very fascinated.

Seeing the two who couldn't wait to go out, Long Yifeng suddenly thought, why don't you open an Internet café in the Bronze Man? Now, the young people of the Bronze Man are playing games in the game machine room at most, and they have not yet learned to use the computer. He also said that in the future world, computers will inevitably become a common tool for people's office life, and moreover, Internet cafes have already opened in some coastal cities, and business is booming.

It seems that the teacher of the microcomputer class also said this. If the market of the copper man has not yet been formed, it should be profitable to take down the computer market and the Internet café first. Only when you get the first pot of gold, there will be many opportunities in the future.

Long Yifeng still feels that his idea has a strong feasibility. The key problem is that I am not familiar with the computer industry and the opening of Internet cafes, so I must find some information in this area. In addition, there is also the problem of funds, and it is still a problem for my monthly living expenses, and it takes a lot of investment to open a computer company and an Internet café.

Without investment funds, everything is not discussed. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of money.

After Long Yifeng figured it out, he deliberately went to the phone booth to make a call to his cousin Long Haigang, who was working in Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, and the call was transferred by the landlord near his rented house. Long Yifeng told Long Haigang that he wanted to understand the situation of the computer market, and asked him to have time to go to the center of Shenzhen and Hong Kong to see if there was any information about computers.

Long Haigang said: "Haha, you can be regarded as having found someone." After I came to Shenzhen, I worked in an electronics factory, and we have been processing computers since then. Because I play basketball well, I often play basketball with the factory manager, and he can still afford me. He told me that the computer is a daily tool that everyone needs to master in the future, and the computer is really illiterate. Under his influence, many of my colleagues have gone to computer training schools, and I have been studying for two months, and I have learned a lot of things. When I have time, I often go to the Internet café to play for a while. There's a lot more stuff on the Internet than there's on TV or books. ”

Long Yifeng listened to his gushing introduction and felt that he had found the right person.

At the same time, I also feel that as long as I am willing to study, I can learn a lot even if I am a part-time worker. The current Long Haigang has just walked in front of him. He asked Long Hai to inquire about the qualifications needed to open an Internet café and how much money he needed to open an Internet café, and find some information to send to himself, preferably to introduce it clearly in the letter. The two brothers have had a good relationship since childhood, and Long Haigang naturally agreed to his request.

The next day, Long Yifeng came to Xiao Jing's secret garden and told Xiao Jing his thoughts by the way. Xiao Jing also feels that opening a computer company and an Internet café is a good business opportunity, but funding is a problem. Xiao Jing understood how strong his learning energy was, and that high school course was not enough for him to study. And extracurricular books, not to mention. I don't know why he has such a good memory.

Once, Long Yifeng took a dictionary and asked her to draw words immediately, and it turned out that which word was clearly stated on that page. Long Yifeng also showed her a hand, asking Xiao Jing to pick up a book from the bookshelf at random, and then start to memorize it from beginning to end, without knots, which stunned Xiao Jing.

From that moment on, Xiao Jing finally understood that there was a division between people called geniuses and ordinary people.

Xiao Jing still has a way, she decided to take Long Yifeng to her uncle's house and ask her uncle if there is any way to raise money. Xiao Jing's uncle took a completely different path from Xiao Jing's father, he liked to do business, and opened a hotel in Tongren in the early days, making the first pot of gold ruthlessly. In recent years, under the influence of his family, he began to pour out calligraphy and painting works, and opened a calligraphy and painting exhibition shop in the urban area, selling calligraphy and painting works and related businesses.

The two came to Uncle Xiao's office and happened to meet him reading and drinking tea in front of the coffee table. Xiao Jing told him that she needed to make money, but she didn't reveal the idea of opening a computer company and an Internet café. Uncle Xiao saw two students who wanted to earn money, and he thought it was very interesting.

He told the two that the economic base determines the superstructure, and that is the eternal law of society. Although it is very important to study now, it is understandable that Long Yifeng wants to make money. However, the student status is special, and it is not easy to make money. Long Yifeng: They can't necessarily have a lot of time to work, after all, it is still necessary to study.

In the big cities outside, many students use their spare time to do simple work to earn some pocket money. However, in the remote town of Copperman, few people hire part-time students. If you take out a loan from a bank, it requires very strict procedures, and even if they are under the age of 18, the bank will not be able to provide them with a loan.

The only way is to have special skills, or to have some antique calligraphy and paintings in your home. As an old man, Uncle Xiao is also an expert in this area, and he knows that there are some good things in the countryside, but many people don't know treasures. In the early years, he used to go to the countryside to search for treasures, and he did find some good things.

Antiques, calligraphy and paintings?

Long Yifeng thought about these two things repeatedly in his mind, and felt that he had no antiques, and there were some calligraphy and paintings in his hometown, but those were his grandfather's favorites, and they could not be exchanged for money. When they came in, there were people in the store who were putting on watches and paintings, and I wonder if there were also people selling their own works?

"Uncle Xiao, if we don't sell ancient calligraphy and paintings, but sell our own paintings, can we make money?"

"Your own paintings? That depends on your level of drawing. Nowadays, the calligraphy and paintings of some masters are also quite valuable, and some are sold for hundreds of thousands or even millions. There are also those at the professional level that sell for tens of thousands, thousands, or hundreds. There is a place called Dafen Village in Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, where they sell paintings in batches, the price is not expensive, but the business is also very hot, and they can be used for general home decoration. Uncle Xiao seriously introduced some basic information about the calligraphy and painting business.

Hearing that selling paintings could make money, Xiao Jing hurriedly said, "Uncle, Yifeng has painted well, why don't he put a few paintings to sell to you?"

Last time, when Long Yifeng came to their house, Uncle Xiao Jing had something to go out to socialize, and he didn't approve of it.

"I've seen Xiaolong's paintings, if you really want to paint and sell them, I guess there should be a good price. However, it depends on how the people in the market offer the price. The consumption of calligraphy and painting in this place is not popular, and there are not many people with purchasing power. You can take some and sell them in our shop. If you have a chance, I can also help you and take your calligraphy and paintings to Su Yang and friends in Beiping, where the price is higher. ”

Subsequently, he introduced to Long Yifeng the commission ratio method and management method of selling calligraphy and paintings.

Long Yifeng feels that the best way for him to make money at present is to sell calligraphy and paintings, otherwise there is really no other way. So, I left an Uncle Xiao's big brother number, saying that I would take out some works and try them in the store as soon as possible.
