Chapter Seventy-Nine: Making Money Is Hard Work
After closing the stall on this day, I decided to turn around and go to the store to see if Brother Pig and Sister-in-law Pig were still in the store.
I'm going to see if they're there, they're going to have a late-night snack together, it's so late, my stomach is croaking. In the winter, fortunately I am well equipped, otherwise I would really be handsome and 'frozen'.
The lights were still on in the store, I parked the car, Brother Pig and Sister-in-law Pig just turned off the computer in the store, and when they saw me in the store, they closed the door with a smile, and then we went to have supper together. It turned out that Brother Pig and I wanted to go together, and Sister-in-law Pig said that Brother Pig just wanted to call me and ask me to have supper together, and he had something to talk to me about.
Have something to talk to me about? What's the matter? I asked hurriedly. Brother Pig smiled and said, first go to have supper, talk while eating, and pat me on the shoulder and say: Brother, a good thing, a great thing. Brother Pig's shot is very powerful, it seems that there is really a good thing, otherwise Brother Pig would not be so happy.
But what is it? Don't guess, don't ask, go for supper first, and listen to Brother Pig while eating.
Although the night snack shop is not big, but in the five minutes we sat down, there were several groups of people in a row, and after they came, they ordered several dishes, and shouted for the boss to serve hot rice and wine.
It seems that catering can indeed make money, no wonder there are many restaurants and restaurants in many places now, and the eyes of businessmen are bright, if you don't make money, who will have nothing to do with this troubled water?
As soon as I chatted with Brother Pig about the business in the store, the dishes we ordered came up, and when we were about to eat, Brother Pig smiled and told me the good things he wanted to tell me.
Only then did I know that it was tonight when the pig sister-in-law was doing business, she warmly received a customer who looked east and west, and this guy saw a variety of styles in our store, saying that he came to learn and learn from experience. The most important point is that he said an idea that made Brother Pig very excited, and wanted to buy goods from our store and sell them in his small shop, which is indeed very good news for Brother Pig and Sister-in-law Pig and me.
Purchase, this word, I am very familiar, I have always been buying from others, this time I didn't expect that this customer actually offered to buy from us. Just one sentence from him changed the location of our store and elevated us from the role of a buyer to the position of a supplier, which is really unexpected.
When people come to buy from me, I think that's what a wholesale store should do, and we're just a small retail store. Although the business is slowly improving, it is not careless, and it must be managed well.
I have never advocated rapid expansion, and when I used to invest in futures, my operations were also conservative. I never grab the short-term rebound, I think that playing steady and living longer in the market is the way to sustainable investment.
Now I think the business of the small store has just taken the first step of the long march, but I didn't expect that there would be people who wanted to come to our store to buy goods so far.
Of course, retail is not a long-term solution, and we will eventually go down the wholesale path. But compared to a small store that has only been open for less than half a year, I really didn't expect to transition to wholesale so quickly. Isn't it faster? The thought kept coming back to me over and over again.
Brother Pig's purpose of eating supper with me now is obvious, whether he wants to discuss with me what to do next, whether to continue this form of small store retail, or to transform into wholesale, or to batch and scatter together.
Sister-in-law Pig means to do it together, we have a total of three votes, and we have already had two votes to agree, so what else do I have to say? But as a result, I have to work more during the day and run more often. Alas, I'm really a hard-working person, but bitterly happy.
When we were about to leave after supper, Brother Pig patted me on the shoulder and said with a smile how hard it would be for me, and I smiled innocently. It's okay, I'm here, I can't eat this little hard work, how can I make a lot of money? Brother Zhu didn't say anything more, and went back with his sister-in-law.
In fact, Brother Pig works harder, he has to go to work every day, and he has to come to the store to help at night. He didn't complain at all, compared to his hard work, what is my little investment?
I said that I was a person from the past, and there was no element of fraud at all, and I had experienced it in a harder time than this. In the past, when I was investing, I accompanied customers to watch the market until the early hours of the morning every day, and even sometimes the market was unstable, and I had to accompany customers to watch all night. I can only sacrifice myself to help him see, to know that the customer is the food and clothing parents, so I have to follow his wishes.
Invest in this thing, he pays for it, of course I have to contribute and make hard-earned money. At that time, I sat in front of the computer every day, and I chatted for most of the day, but fortunately, the foundation of my body was hard, otherwise I would have collapsed before Brother Pig found me.
When I got home, took a shower, turned on the computer, and watched the news broadcast for half an hour, I got up and turned off the computer to get ready to rest. In fact, I didn't have the habit of watching news broadcasts before, but I developed it when I invested, and through news broadcasts, I can learn about some things at home and abroad, so that I can prepare in advance when investing.
Of course, a lot of the content in the news has to be refined and analyzed by yourself, and a lot of content is not different at all if you look at it from the surface of the news. But after thinking deeply, you will realize that there is something else behind it.
I have also read the 23 rules of doing business written by a Wenzhou businessman before, one of which is that the daily news broadcast must be watched on time, no matter how busy it is, and tell everyone that you can know the country's policies from the news network and plan for your business in advance. I sometimes wonder, is this the same thing that heroes see?
Before turning off the light and lying down, my eyes glanced at the small drawer on the computer desk, and I knew that it contained the good memories of me and Qian Annie, the vixen in the distance, are you okay?
Do you know that I care about you from afar, and I think about you again every night before I go to bed, but I can only keep it in my heart alone. I think my whole being had already started to grow by the time I was sure you were gone.
Don't worry, I must make a name for myself, whether you can see it or not, I will definitely live well, and I pray that you can be healthy and happy in the distance.
