Chapter 10 Treat to Dinner and Wine

In the afternoon, Zhao Hongbing did not enter the venue again, but took the big country to the next door to observe the situation.

Next door to the venue is the warehouse of Wujiaohua Company, which is a tall building with a full eight floors. In front of the warehouse, dozens of trucks with license plates from all over the country were parked, and more than a dozen porters were busy loading the two vehicles in front. Years of physical work have made these porters tendons well-developed and very strong. A bundle of round silk weighing 100 pounds, a person easily threw it from under the car to the car, his face did not change and his heart did not beat. Some of them pushed out flatbed trucks full of goods from the warehouse, some people took off the flatbed trucks and loaded them onto the trucks, and some people stacked them on the trucks in an orderly manner.

In front of the vehicle, there is a person who looks like a purchaser, holding a pen in his hand, standing next to the car, after the worker has moved a few goods, he will use the pen to tick on the goods with the car, which means that this variety is loaded on the car.

Zhao Hongbing's eyes were fiery eyes, and after a little look, he saw that the procurement personnel appointed by the buyer were by no means from state-owned units, and he knew a little in his heart that these goods marked on the contract as being sold to subordinate stations were estimated to have been resold to private individuals or individuals.

This is a very common phenomenon in this era, the private economy has risen, but it does not get enough respect and status, take the purchasing meeting next door, private enterprises are not qualified to enter, let alone those who push small carts to do business.

However, if the booming private economy wants to pursue trade and profits, it can only resort to some gray means, such as cooperating with supply and marketing systems at all levels, being attached to these units, leaving most of the profits earned to the units, and individuals can only take a small part.

Or those who have more magical powers, go through the upper level of relations, and take the approval from the hands of those powerful people, even if it is a contract of approval that is exploited layer by layer, the price of the goods that can be obtained will be lower, so that enough profits for the survival and development of the enterprise will be formed.

The procurement in front of you may be a person appointed by a private enterprise, but there will be no clues on the surface, and the contract will only indicate which commercial station or a certain provincial supply and marketing cooperatives these goods are sold to, and no one knows how much reselling and how many interests are stripped in the middle.

Zhao Hongbing watched with great interest, his interest was naturally not in exposing these injustices, in fact, he was also preparing to become a member of the Fallen Master, his purpose was to observe the porters and trucks.

Among the people who stacked goods on the car, a man with a short figure and a solid figure attracted the attention of Zhao Hongbing, who was not good-looking, but his expression was calm, and he commanded the workers to carry the goods from time to time, looking like the leader of this group of coolies.

I heard the man shouting under the car: "Monkey! I heard that your mother-in-law Huangpi is here, is she working overtime every day at night these days? When everyone heard this, they laughed.

The man who was called the monkey was a tall and mighty man eight feet long, powerful and shrewd, and he did not seem to be made fun of. Hearing this, he was not annoyed, but replied to the man: "Brother dog! What's wrong with me working overtime every day, making you hungry? ”

The dog brother laughed: "Brother dog sees that you don't seem to be in a state today, my brother cares about you, let you rest, and work overtime at night!" ”

The monkey replied: "If Brother Dog is greedy, call your Huangmei lady over quickly, don't have the strength to make fun of your brother." ”

Brother Dog said: "Brother Dog, will I be hungry for your mother-in-law who has no breasts and no fart?" Last night, the boss of Wenzhou, please drink flower wine, don't mention how happy I am Brother Dog......"

The two kept arguing, causing the porters to laugh, and in this way, the already tired crowd seemed to have added a lot of strength, and soon filled the two cars in front.

Zhao Hongbing watched it with relish, but the big country became bored, and pouted: "A group of hard-working fools, what is there to see." ”

Zhao Hongbing glanced at this fool, didn't care about him, and walked straight to the group of porters.

Several porters had already noticed the abnormality, and when they saw Zhao Hongbing coming, they reported to the dog brother in the car: "Look, there is a Kaizi over there, who has been here to watch us move goods, and now he has come over." ”

When everyone heard this, they saw a well-dressed young man in a suit walking towards him with a smile.

The monkey said, "It can't be a way-seeking, right?" The crowd was puzzled, and the monkey said, "Who knows who is which Tao these days, as long as it is not the one who robs us of our jobs." ”

Brother Dog said: "You are a coolie, who will rob you of your job." ”

As he spoke, the other party had already walked over, and a group of five big and three thick porters looked at the young man as if facing a class enemy.

The man was not in a hurry, did not wait for everyone to speak, smiled all over his face, and called respectfully: "Brother dog! Brothers. ”

Brother Dog has a rough face, but his personality is very fine, and he is the head of a group of people, and his knowledge is different, he saw that although this person was young, he was dressed in style, and he spoke very decently, like a scene person, but he didn't understand what it meant for such a person to watch these porters load the goods so late, so he asked seriously: "What does this gentleman do?" ”

Zhao Hongbing smiled and said, "You don't dare to be a good person, but I just see that a few brothers are very eye-catching and want to make friends." The surname is Zhao, and the Jin Provincial Materials Corporation is on a business trip. ”

As soon as he heard that it was the provincial level, what kind of head office, or what kind of business trip, Brother Dog was even more suspenseful, and he didn't dare to slack off, and said respectfully: "I don't know what Mr. Zhao commands?" ”

Zhao Hongbing didn't hurry to speak, first took out a cigarette and distributed it to everyone, and then stuffed the remaining half a pack of cigarettes into Brother Dog's hand, and said, "I have a little thing to ask Brother Dog." ”

Brother Dog said: "Our brothers only have brute strength, and there is no problem in carrying it, I don't know ...... Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Hongbing said: "I don't understand one or two sentences here, so let's do it, I'll set a table for wine at the Shiquan restaurant next to me, and I'll invite you to drink after you finish your work in the afternoon." ”

Brother Dog thought about it, nodded and agreed: "Then thank you Mr. Zhao first, I will be busy in the afternoon, about seven or eight o'clock." ”

Zhao Hongbing said that there was no problem, and took out a few boxes of cigarettes from a black handbag, handed them to the dog brother and said, "Please smoke these cigarettes, brothers." ”

Brother Dog and Monkey watched Zhao Hongbing leave, not knowing what this person was going to do, and they couldn't figure out what medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Brother Dog said: "This Jin Laoxi is really strange, Lao Tzu has been here for more than ten years, and it is the first time he has encountered such a strange thing." ”

The monkey said: "Brother Dog, I don't think this Mr. Zhao looks like a villain, I know this cigarette, the new Hangang cigarettes, cost 10 yuan a pack, he took out five packs at once, it's really refreshing, he must be a person who does big things." Anyway, he can't ask us to kill people and set fires, I'm afraid of a few bars! ”

Brother Dog said: "You know a fart! You give this cigarette to your brothers to smoke, and you say work harder, finish it early, and go home early for dinner. You stay and go with me to have a drink. ”

After Zhao Hongbing came back, the big country was also puzzled, and said depressedly: "Brother Bing, are you crazy?" Why give away those good cigarettes for nothing, it's better to give them to me. ”

Zhao Hongbing slapped him on the head and scolded: "How many times have you said it, call me Manager Zhao outside!" ”

The big country stuck out his tongue and hurriedly shouted: "Manager Zhao......"

Zhao Hongbing explained: "Don't underestimate these coolies, if you want to say who knows the Haicheng warehouse best, these people are afraid that they are more powerful than those old warehouse managers, and the news we want to get, those warehouse managers can't know, and they won't tell us if they know, so we have to ask these people." By the way, I'm going to invite them to dinner at night, so don't pull the dead man's face and feel sorry for the money. ”

The big country's face collapsed directly, he really felt sorry for the money, although it was not his own money, but watching Zhao Hongbing spend money like water, the key is that he didn't know where the business was until now, and it was really uncomfortable to sit on the empty mountain.

Zhao Hongbing went into the venue a few more times to collect some information, and it was not until more than six o'clock in the evening that he took the big country to the Shiquan Hotel, and after waiting for another half an hour, Brother Dog came in with a monkey.

Introducing each other, greeting each other a few words, Zhao Hongbing saluted the two of them with a cigarette, and threw the newly smoked Hongtashan on the table, the waiter sent the menu at this time, Zhao Hongbing said: "Brother dog, you come and order, pick the expensive one, don't save money for your brother, that is not to give me face." ”

Brother Gou felt sincerity, showed a sincere smile, and said: "Mr. Zhao is a member of the public family, we are very grateful if we don't suspect us for working hard, how can we not give you face." Okay, I'll have it, today's food is secondary, we want to drink some wine, can Mr. Zhao drink it? ”

Zhao Hongbing slapped the table and laughed: "I have this intention, let Brother Dog take the lead, I won't tell you, I don't have any special hobbies, I like to drink some wine, my favorite friend who has a lot of alcohol, Brother Dog, and this monkey brother, let's not get drunk today, brothers drink well." ”

After speaking, Zhao Hongbing asked again: "Two, do you drink white wine or beer?" ”

Brother Dog said: "Brothers, you are used to drinking liquor. ”

Zhao Hongbing said to the waiter: "What kind of liquor do you guests drink the most here?" Pick the good ones. ”

The young lady said: "Immortal liquor, Shikumen, Chongming old liquor, these are good." ”

Zhao Hongbing frowned and asked, "Wuliangye, Kweichow Moutai doesn't have it?" ”

Brother Dog and Monkey, together with the big countries, are trembling when they hear it, although they may not have drunk these two high-end wines, but as long as people who love wine, no one has not heard of them.

It is the fairy wine, Shikumen, Chongming old liquor, these wines, are also the local famous wines in Haicheng, Brother Dog knows that these are some very expensive wines, and he is usually reluctant to drink them.

Zhao Hongbing asked again: "How much is a bottle of Shikumen?" ”

The waiter replied, "30 for the height, 25 for the low." Brother Dog interjected: "The height outside is only thirteen yuan, why are you so expensive here?" ”

Zhao Hongbing said with a smile: "The hotel is like this!" Well, let's start with the three-bottle height shikumen. ”

The service lady smiled and agreed to go out.

Brother Dog said: "Let Mr. Zhao break the bank!" ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "It's nothing, it's nothing!" You must drink well today, big country, you have to accompany a good dog brother, you know? ”

Da Dao Hanhan nodded, thinking of drinking 30 yuan a bottle of good wine, and his saliva was a little more.

After a while, two dishes were served, the wine was opened, Zhao Hongbing wanted to pour the wine for everyone in person, this time the big country finally got the hang of it, and quickly stood up and grabbed the wine bottle: "Manager Zhao, what is your identity, how can you let you pour wine, I ...... I'll pour, I'll pour. ”

Just as he was about to pour the wine, Zhao Hongbing stopped the big country, pointed to the finger-sized five-money cup and said, "This cup is too small, and it is not enjoyable to drink." Waiter, you come over and swap these for large glasses. ”

The waiter said, "The biggest is one or two halves, okay?" ”

When Brother Dog heard Zhao Hongbing's arrogance, he had already been flooded with alcohol worms, and then said loudly: "No, change us to beer glasses, brothers must drink well today." ”

The waiter professionally put away the small glasses in front of everyone, and replaced them with transparent beer glasses for a while.

Zhao Hongbing said to the service lady: "We pour the wine ourselves, please hurry up and serve the food." The waiter promised to rush the food. Zhao Hongbing also ordered the great country to pour wine for everyone. The beer glass was half a pound full and gone.

Even the monkey, who has always been addicted to alcohol, smacked his tongue, Zhao Hongbing picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "The little brother came to Haicheng today to meet and drink with the brothers, this is fate!" After a while, the dishes were served, and Zhao had some things to ask the two of them. Today, the brethren let go of the amount and drank heartily. I'll take a sip first as a sign of respect! ”

After speaking, he took a big sip, and immediately took a cut of the cup.

Seeing that he was arrogant, Brother Dog also stood up and said, "Okay, I made Mr. Zhao a friend today!" ”

After speaking, he also took a big sip, and suddenly felt that the entrance was pure and full of fragrance, and he couldn't stop shouting: "Good wine!" Wine! ”

Monkeys and big countries also drank, there are very few fake wines in this era, good wine is good wine, and I feel a lot more comfortable when I drink it.

At this time, the dishes were served a few more plates, Zhao Hongbing beckoned everyone to eat the dishes, and the four-person cup came and went with chopsticks, and after a few laps, Zhao Hongbing picked up the wine glass again and said to the dog brother: "The brothers are all bold people, Zhao Moucheng brothers can afford it, and today there is something to entrust, drink this cup first." ”

Everyone thought he was just polite and took a sip, but when they saw him pick up the wine glass, tilt his neck, and gurgle and drain all the glass of wine, they couldn't help but exclaim: This person is so powerful, the amount of wine is really large!

Brother Dog admired and said: "Brother Dog, I have always boasted that I have drunk a lot, Lao Tzu is the first in the world, I met Mr. Zhao today, only to know that there are people outside the sky, I admit defeat!" Brother, what the hell is going on with you, just tell me and see if I can help. ”

I saw that Zhao Hongbing was not in a hurry, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, "Zhao has a few things I want to ask the brothers!" ”

Brother Dog said: "Mr. Zhao, please say something, as long as the brothers do it, they will do their best!" ”

Zhao Hongbing asked: "The brothers beg for a living in the warehouse every day, and they must be very familiar with the situation there. ”

Brother Gou said: "It is mainly the Wujiaohua company, supply and marketing cooperatives, light industry and trading companies in the system, and some large shopping malls, and there are many outside the system. ”

Zhao Hongbing's face was overjoyed, and he deliberately asked, "Is there also outside the system?" Didn't I hear that the goods of Haicheng Wujiaohua Company are only supplied to major secondary stations, and even those second-level supply and marketing associations have no way to get them directly? ”

Brother Dog spat disdainfully and said, "It's all a disguise, and I know the doorway here best." Nominally, the contract is signed with those secondary stations, but in fact, these goods have long been sold to many layers, a large contract can be divided into countless small contracts, layer by layer to sell to countless channels, a large part of the goods have to fall on private enterprises, and finally sell to individuals, so that the price is raised layer by layer, so the people are the most unlucky. ”

Zhao Hongbing asked: "So that's the case, then no one cares?" ”

"Tube? How? Brother Dog said: "They all have formal contracts, and they don't break the law, those who are leaders turn a blind eye, and the staff and warehouse managers below are estimated to be unclear about the doorway inside, they drink tea and chat in the office every day, as long as they don't make mistakes in their work." Moreover, even if these things are not allowed to come out of the Haicheng warehouse, they will be raised by the supply and marketing system layer by layer, and the price will rise as much as the price in the hands of individuals. It's just that those second- and third-level stations don't even want to pay for transportation now, and directly divide the contract and let those buyers come to pick up the goods themselves, which is a good thing for us who are bitter, and the individual boss is much more generous than those state-run commercial stations. ”

Zhao Hongbing said: "I can't imagine that there is so much attention to here, if it weren't for talking to Brother Dog, where would I, an outsider, find the door." Brother dog, it seems that you know the private bosses who came to pick up the goods? ”

Brother Dog smiled: "Brothers deal with these people every day, but they can't be more familiar!" ”

Zhao Hongbing said happily: "Good, good! Everyone didn't know what Mr. Zhao wanted, and they all looked at him. I saw that Zhao Hongbing's face was full of red light, and some fine sweat oozed from his face.

Zhao Hongbing patted Brother Dog on the shoulder and said happily: "It seems that you have really found the right person to find the brothers!" ”

Brother Dog and the others still didn't understand why he was so happy. Zhao Hongbing stood up, picked up the wine bottle, and personally poured wine for everyone.

Zhao Hongbing said: "Brother dog, I hope to use the help of the brothers, please ask the brothers to collect the contact information of the purchasing office of those private bosses for me, and if I can't find it, I will work hard from those truck drivers." I don't use my brothers in vain, I paid ten yuan to buy a contact information, here are two hundred yuan, Brother Dog takes it first, and helps me pay in advance. ”

As for whether the money was taken by Brother Dog himself or distributed to the people below, Zhao Hongbing didn't care, he just needed to get the information.

Brother Dog and Monkey glanced at each other, and they were a little confused, how could they ever see such a business. But since there is money to be made, it is a good thing, plus he fell in love with the other party, and at that moment Brother Gou patted his chest and said: "It turns out that Mr. Zhao is asking for such a trivial matter, why bother to spend so much." Don't worry, this matter has been contracted to me, you will come to the warehouse tomorrow, and I will give you the contact information that can be collected first, and there will be no less! ”

Zhao Hongbing was overjoyed, touched a cup with Brother Dog, and said with a smile: "Brother Dog is a real person, I am relieved to have your words, if it comes to fruition in the future, I will invite the brothers to have another good drink." ”
