Chapter 5 Opening a Store

It is said that many of the young ladies in Chinatown are college students. www.biquge.info My brother once told me that he had seen a little girl in Chinatown in a securities company - a graduate of Tsinghua University, who had been in HN for a year, bought a house, a car, and sat in the big room of a securities company. A year ago, the little sister who was in the underground, a year later, she drove a Ferrari and despised all benefactors. I doubt the extent of this matter. Sometimes I even maliciously speculated about him: Do you want me to go to Chinatown to help him make money? Sometimes I think that he may treat me as a brother and brag nonsense with me. However, when HN was built in the province, the first batch of flight attendants were very beautiful, and it is true that they were later covered by various big money. I came across one on HN's International Trade Avenue.

The farther I go, I'd better come back and continue my small shop. The shop has to open early every morning, mainly the people who come to the next door for breakfast knock on the door to buy goods, more than 10 o'clock in the evening, the people in the mahjong parlor are not in a hurry to go home, I want to close the door early, they come to knock hard. So I had to get up earlier than them, go to bed later than them, and it was hard to look at the store alone. Sometimes my brother's business is not very busy, I want him to help me watch the point, I take a break, but I always don't worry about him, afraid that he will sell at the wrong price, afraid that he will quarrel with customers. More than ten days have passed like this.

My sister-in-law asked me to bring in goods for her once a week. Every time I called, I was asked to memorize the details, and after I had finished the goods, I asked my brother to send them back. After buying more than 3,000 yuan of goods for her, one day, my brother's partner couldn't stand it anymore and said to me in private: Every time you buy goods with money, it's okay to say in a short time, but for a long time, you don't have the money to buy the goods yourself, and the business should not be able to continue. I thought, yes. I don't have enough money to buy her for a few months. All the goods in her small shop were sold by me, and the money from the sale was hers, so I became a part-time worker for her.

I'm a person who doesn't understand other people's hints, so I think others don't necessarily understand what they suggest. At that time, I was a little stupid, and I didn't know that there were some things to express implicitly, to show mercy to others. I went directly to my brother to talk and said, "Next time I finish buying for my sister-in-law, you can bring back the money for the purchase." "Okay, who gave you the idea?" "Think for yourself." He didn't say anything, and I guess he probably didn't believe my mind could come up with such a profound question. I don't know what my brother told my sister-in-law when I went back, but my sister-in-law hasn't asked me to buy goods for her since then. I asked, and my brother said that her brother had his own car, and she gave the money to her brother and asked her brother to help her buy the goods. I didn't think much of it at the time, because every time we met, we were still in harmony. Now that I think about it, I guess she was angry with me at that time.

The store slowly opened, and many dealers' salesmen began to come to the door, and I was a good talker, and I bought some goods from them every time. Slowly, everyone became familiar with it. There is a fellow from the Northeast who often runs to me, and every time I am busy, there are not many opportunities to actually sit down and chat with them. One day he suddenly came to say that he had a friend who was going back to the mainland, and he wanted to put a batch of furniture in my house, and I asked, "What kind of furniture?" If it's less, it's okay to put it for the time being, but if it's more, it may not be able to put it down. "No more, no less." "Alright then, you can send it over." I said yes in the morning, and he sent it in the afternoon, oh my god, a big wardrobe, two double beds, two bedside tables, a large round table, and a lot of pots and pans. I can't say much about it, and besides, I've only talked to him a few times, and I haven't reached the point of entrusting such a valuable thing. I really didn't dare to accept it, so I repeatedly shirked and persuaded him to sell the furniture. "Use it yourself. I also don't have a place to put it. "His supposed generosity actually left me with a lot of confusion. Even though my own bed and furniture are not as valuable as his, I still don't like to use other people's old things. My brother's partner was so happy that all the furniture was moved to his room except for the dining table, and he was given a full set.

Now that I think about it, that fellow may have really encountered something, and the furniture may be his. Within a week of the furniture being pulled to our house, he came to my shop and said, "I'm unemployed." "Oh, what do you have to do?" "He was muttering to himself in a very depressed way, I couldn't hear what he was saying, I just knew where he was whispering and kept talking, as if he wasn't mentally normal." Why don't you get a new job? "I'll borrow your phone and call home." He ignored my questioning and went straight to the phone. I hurriedly found my brother and tried to persuade him. After all, they are all fellow countrymen, so they can't watch him have an accident. After the call, he was about to leave before my brother could persuade him. said that he didn't want to develop in HN anymore and was ready to go back to the mainland. "What about all these furniture? Do you want to sell it? "I'll use it for you." After the fellow finished speaking, he left. I haven't seen him since. I don't know if he really went back to the mainland. I still don't really understand his behavior. The furniture he gave us was pure solid wood furniture, and I guess we should sell it for some money if we sell old goods in the market. He came to my store just to make a phone call? If you don't even have the money to make phone calls, why not sell your furniture? Or maybe he wanted to talk to us about something, but I couldn't understand it like that, so he gave up. I don't know if the eldest brother is doing well now, I hope he can survive the difficulties at the beginning, so I will take the past suffering as a kind of training.

By the end of February '99, the stock market began to recover. I remember that it was HN stocks that first started to rise, and at that time, Qiong Jinpan began to rise every day, but the stocks I bought with my eyes closed did not move, and I was lying on my stomach. My brother is very expert in educating me: in the past, every time the market started, HN stocks started to rise first, then small-cap stocks rose, and large-cap stocks rose smaller. Every time the market HN is out of demon stocks. I also want demon stocks, but my money is in the goods. The stock I bought was a large-cap stock. I regret this, why don't I insist on it more, why didn't I just rent a house to live in according to my own ideas, and do stocks professionally. At that time, my heart began to move, and I didn't want to open a small shop, and I was not active in doing things, and I had the idea of transferring the small shop. About another month passed in the contradiction of wanting to turn around, and I discussed with my brother: Why don't you do it? I can get back the cost if I go out of the store, and I go to speculate in stocks? My brother resolutely rejected my idea. But what happened next made me determined to sell the store.
