"Xingxing, we thought that if we became a big boss, you won't come to collect scrap?" The owner of the grocery store saw Zheng Zhishang, who had not seen him for a few days, appear in the market with a trolley again, and joked with a smile:

"Hey, how come? It's been raining a lot these days, so there's no way to come out and collect scrap. Uncle, you won't sell all the scrap to others, will you? Zheng Zhishang smiled brightly and said:

But it was not from the thunderstorm that night, the sky did not clear, for several days above Xiamen, were covered by churning dark clouds, and it rained continuously. It was only today that the dark clouds gradually dispersed, revealing the long-lost dazzling sunlight, through the clouds, like beams of light, shining down.

"No, it's raining, the market is very deserted, and there isn't much business. I haven't even seen the scrap collectors. I'm here, thanks to your restaurant, and I've bought a lot of goods here. The owner of the grocery store smiled and said, "I'll fold the cartons and put them in the warehouse for you." ”

"By the way, uncle, the accounts of the restaurant will be settled with you in time for this short period of time." Zheng Zhishang followed the boss into the warehouse, ready to move the waste, and asked with a smile:

A fast food has established cooperative relations with many stores in the market, and many of the seasonings and materials in the store are sent by these stores to a person in person, some are sent to settle once, and some are bookkeed, and settled once a month or a week.

It completely depends on the store owner's own ability, which also saves Sammo Hung and Chen Degui the workload, and they don't need to come out to purchase everything in person.

"It's been settled a few times." The boss pondered for a while, looked at Zheng Zhishang's young body, laboriously lifted a stack of cardboard boxes, and asked with a smile: "Xingxing, your store has a good business, why do you still collect scrap?" You still want to collect it for the rest of your life. ”

Zheng Zhishang smiled and said, "They are helping with everything in the store, and I am idle when I am idle." ”

"You can really rest assured that your own shop, you don't look at it, and run out to collect scrap."

"My name, don't use suspicious people, don't use suspicious people." Zheng Zhishang replied with a smile:

Although I didn't come to the market to collect waste products for a week, it was really affected by the weather, and the business of each store was greatly affected, and there were not many waste products such as cartons. And many cartons have been rained and soaked in water, and the quality of the waste products has been reduced a lot.

In this regard, Zheng Zhishang can only slightly lower the price to buy, and the owners of those shops, except for a few owners, have some complaints, but more still express their understanding.

Finally, these waste products were collected and pulled to the recycling station.

"Xingxing, your trip is in vain...... an uncle surnamed Wu at the recycling station, said to Zheng Zhishang with some regret:

It's not this trip, even one-third of the price of a car on weekdays has not been sold, and a large part of the cartons, cardboard and other things have been soaked in water, some of them are moldy and rotten, and they are not sent to the recycling station in vain. For the sake of Zheng Zhishang is acquaintance, he sympathized with him and gave a little compensation.

Zheng Zhishang smiled and said, "It's nothing, the good things in the world can't be taken up every day." All year round, there are always times when there is a loss, right? ”

Uncle Wu nodded with a smile and said, "That's the reason, but in the future, you'd better not accept these cardboard boxes and cardboards that have been soaked in water, even if you pull us here, we can't deal with it, and it will take up a lot of space if you put it." ”

Zheng Zhishang smiled and nodded, "You can take it to the paper mill and return to the furnace." These cardboards, cartons, etc. should still be usable. ”

Uncle Wu smiled and didn't say anything.

It's just that Zheng Zhishang didn't expect that the recycling rate of waste products in this period was incredibly low, and many things, which could obviously be recycled and reused, could only be treated as garbage, or incinerated, or filled into the sea or something because of the technical level.

"By the way, what about Uncle Chen? Why don't you see him today? Zheng Zhishang was not surrounded by Uncle Chen, and asked suspiciously:

"Hey, it's not the reform that made trouble." Uncle Wu sighed helplessly and said:

"What? Was he laid off? Zheng Zhishang asked:

"No, the city has already made a decision to contract some factories, recycling stations and so on to private individuals. I heard that it was a relative of the current deputy stationmaster who contracted the recycling station, and Lao Chen and the man were not very right, so he took the initiative to leave...... "Uncle Wu said regretfully:

"Oh, that's it, in fact, it's not necessarily a bad thing to come out early and do it alone......" Zheng Zhishang smiled and relieved:

"Also, maybe, when I won't do it, I'll collect scrap with you......" Uncle Wu said with a smile:

After leaving the recycling bin and learning that Uncle Chen had resigned, Zheng Zhishang felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and felt sorry for Uncle Chen, after all, it was the place where he had worked for more than ten years.

However, there is no way to do this, there are many problems in state-run factories, and if you want to develop, reform is also necessary.

When I returned home at noon, Grandma Huang and Yaya had also come back early and were preparing lunch. Seeing Zheng Zhishang's little girl Lin Yu, she pounced over with a happy face, and shouted sweetly: "Brother." ”

"Hmm" Zheng Zhishang rubbed the little girl's head, looking a little weak.

"Tired, Xingxing, go back to your room to rest for a while, lunch is almost ready." Looking at Zheng Zhishang, with a tired and somewhat listless look, Grandma Huang was also full of concern and love:

Zheng Zhishang smiled slightly, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired, what dishes are cooking, what dishes need to be washed, I'll help......" As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to help.

"Just one last dish, just make another soup...... Star, do you have something on your mind? Seeing that Zheng Zhishang was old and stunned, Grandma Huang finally couldn't help it and asked with concern;

"It's nothing ......" Zheng Zhishang shook his head, smiled, and said: "By the way, grandma, I heard that the city has issued some reform documents, and is ready to contract some factories or other things to private individuals." Is there any preparation for reform on the sanitation side? ”

"We are sweepers, how can we change it, how can we change it, don't we have to sweep the garbage on the street?" Grandma Huang said with a smile:

"By the way, when I accompanied Yaya to the hospital for an examination today, Sister-in-law Zhong asked when you were going to send those drawings to her."

"Uh" Zheng Zhishang was slightly stunned, he almost forgot about it, scratched his head, and said, "It's already been drawn, but it still needs to be modified." ”

This has to start with the day before yesterday after Grandma Zhong and Aunt Tan Lin came. Although the clothing drawings in Zheng Zhishang's notebook are very good. Even Grandma Zhong, who was born as a tailor and engaged in art, only appreciates it as graffiti works.

As for really tailoring these clothes, Grandma Zhong didn't have this idea.

Although Aunt Tan Lin liked one of the long skirts very much, she was about to move for a long time. However, Grandma Zhong laughed and quipped, "Even if you really make it, you still dare to wear it, and you are not afraid of making your old man angry." She had no choice but to give up.

But he is also extremely in awe of Tan Ah Gong.

What's more, Zheng Zhishang also feels that these clothes are not suitable for today's era, and the social atmosphere is not as open as the 21st century in the previous life. Although it is a woman's nature to love beauty, she wears lipstick, makeup, and sundresses, and there are really few women on the street who will do this.

After thinking about it, Zheng Zhishang also felt that the dresses and clothes for the little girl should be redesigned without the drawings in the notebook.

Grandma Zhong, who was originally a professional, was extremely enthusiastic about helping with the design, but in the end she was politely rejected by Zheng Zhishang, and even the little girl Lin Yu hoped to wear the skirt that Zheng Zhishang helped her design, coupled with Aunt Tan Lin's encouragement.

In the end, it was decided that Zheng Zhishang would draw the drawings first, but Grandma Zhong would revise them.

Strictly speaking, this is Zheng Zhishang's first time doing fashion design, and he has some expectations in his heart, but also a feeling of not being able to start. Compared with children's clothing, Zheng Zhishang prefers to draw girls' clothing. In his free time, Zheng Zhishang carefully recalled all the children's clothes he had seen in his previous life, and drew them on the drawings one by one for reference.

After lunch, Lin Yu, the little girl who had just arrived at the hospital in the morning for an examination, was going to follow Zheng Zhishang out to collect waste.

Grandma Huang asked for leave in the morning and went back to work in the afternoon, Zheng Zhishang hesitated for a while, although he knew that the ground outside was still a little wet, but he still went out with the little girl.

Leaving the little girl at home alone, Zheng Zhishang was more or less uneasy. I said to Grandma Huang, "Grandma, I and Yaya and I will go to the store to eat at dinner, and we won't come back to eat." ”

Grandma Huang is also used to this, although Zheng Zhishang handed over the things in the store to Wang Qimei, Chen Xiaonan, and Hong Aiyue, but she still often goes to the store in person.

In the evening, in a fast-food restaurant, people come and go, and business is prosperous, which is much better than that in other snack bars. In addition to the novelty and good taste of the products in a fast food restaurant, the main thing is that the service attitude of a fast food is excellent.

Truly feel at home, the customer is God.

When I came to the store, the little girl, but I was very happy, and I could eat the barbecue and juice in the store again, and when I saw everyone, I sweetly shouted "Sister Xiaonan, Sister Xiaonan, Brother Jinbao......" so that the people in the store liked her very much.

Looking at the little girl, Zheng Zhishang smiled helplessly, and said to Zheng Fang: "Sister Fang, please take me to eat something first." ”

Zheng Fang smiled and nodded, took the little girl's little hand, and asked softly, "Yaya, what do you want to eat today?" ”

"Kebabs, and a large glass of juice, chicken legs, chicken wings, ......" the little girl's childish voice replied, but before she finished speaking, she quickly covered her small mouth and looked at Zheng Zhishang carefully.

This made Zheng Zhishang cry and laugh, and said helplessly: "Is this barbecue so delicious with juice?" ”

"Xingxing, don't you know, now in the store, not only during meal time, but even when we are resting, there are children who come to the store to buy grilled chicken, chicken legs, juice and so on." Wang Qimei said with a smile: "These things are popular, at first we were worried, the weather is hot, these things are not easy to sell?" ”

Zheng Zhishang glanced at the little girl and said softly: "It's okay to eat, but you can't eat too much, you know?" ”

Although Zheng Zhishang and Grandma Huang pay great attention to the little girl's diet, they do not prohibit the little girl from eating barbecue or anything, and occasionally they still bring the little girl Lin Yu to the store to eat something.

After reading the various reports of the previous week, Zheng Zhishang rubbed his forehead and said; "Sister sister, how much money is currently available in the store."

"Without affecting the normal business of the store, we can call three thousand to four thousand at any time." Wang Qimei replied, seeing Zheng Zhishang frowning and contemplative, she asked again: "What, Xingxing, do you want money?" ”

Zheng Zhishang shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not that I want to use money, it's that we want to use money." ”

"We ......" Not only Wang Yumei was surprised, but even Chen Xiaonan and Hong Aiyue, who participated in the meeting, were also confused.

Zheng Zhishang nodded with a smile and said, "You all already know about the branch." Since the conditions allow, we should also hurry up, and it is best to start next month. ”

The three of them glanced at each other, and Wang Qimei spoke: "Xingxing, next month, will it be too tight, our store has been open for less than two months, and we are ready to branch it now." And as for the license, I don't think the Administration for Industry and Commerce will give us a second license. I'm afraid ......"

It's not like what Zheng Zhishang said last time, taking two months to prepare, and this time the time has been shortened, and Zheng Zhishang is also preparing to wait for a company to lay a solid foundation and open a branch. But think about it carefully, if you want to complete your initial layout before those few world catering giants enter the Chinese market.

There's not enough time left for the family. At the very least, before those giants enter the Chinese market, the layout of several large coastal cities should be completed, so that in the future, even under their impact, none of them will be defeated.

Hearing Wang Qimei's words, Zheng Zhishang couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, he really thought too simply, and now it seems that private factories and companies are not allowed, this kind of chain operation, to a certain extent, although there is a little bit of company flavor.

But whether it is allowed or not, it's really hard to say, hesitated for a while and said: "This matter, sister, you go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to learn about it, if there is really no way, we can also learn from others, register in name, in short, the branch, the sooner it opens, the better." Do you have any suitable places? ”

When the three of them heard this, they were also slightly surprised, and they also knew in their hearts that the name was in the name of others, which was the method adopted by many self-employed and private workshops during this period, and it did solve the problem of business scale, but there were not many problems arising from it.

First of all, the person who is named must be very trusted, otherwise there will be a problem of property rights. However, hearing Zheng Zhishang's question, Wang Qimei also came back to her senses and replied: "Zhongshan Road is very good, it used to be Xiamen Commercial Street. There is also a lot of traffic. ”

Hong Aiyue hesitated a little and said, "However, there are already several snack bars on Zhongshan Road, and there are many street vendors. If you open a branch there, I'm afraid the competitive pressure is not small. ”

Zhongshan Road, is an ancient street in Xiamen, in a sense, it can be said to be a traditional commercial street in Xiamen City, when Zheng Zhishang collects waste products, he often goes there, and he also understands the situation of that generation, frowns, thinks for a while, and says; "The three of you, collect some more information and make a written report and give it to me."

"For this kind of market research report, you can analyze the market environment, surrounding competition, etc., and also consider our own advantages. Thus a certain conclusion is drawn. As we begin to prepare for our branch, you will also have to learn to make various reports, and you will no longer have to revise a report several times to pass the report. ”

When the three of them heard this, they nodded in unison.

"By the way, now the two shifts are changing shifts, and there are no problems with management and work." Zheng Zhishang asked again;

Wang Qimei hesitated for a while and said, "At the beginning, there were some problems with the handover, but now they are all adapted, and everyone is doing well." ”

Zheng Zhishang nodded when he heard this, and said: "Since you want to prepare for the branch, the recruitment and training of employees, you can start to prepare, and as soon as the branch is opened, you can take up the post." ”
