Chapter 56: Hoarding is not strange
This is Chen Zikun's first time taking pictures, Xiong Xiling asked the housekeeper to take him to find a photo studio called "Meifang" near the front door, standing in the pavilion set, facing a huge camera, Chen Zikun was a little overwhelmed, under the guidance of the photographer, put on a fake suit collar, and sat upright on the chair.
The master buried his head in the black cloth, pressed the shutter, and with a "poof" sound, the magnesium lamp emitted a dazzling light, and a cloud of white smoke evaporated, and the photo was completed.
The receipt for the photo was handed over to the housekeeper of the Xiong Mansion, and they were responsible for taking the photos and sending letters.
"Brother Dahai is here, sit down and don't get up, you are not injured." Chen Zikun greeted.
Zhao Dahai still stood up: "Da Kunzi, you underestimate Brother Dahai, what is this injury, he has been alive for a long time." As he spoke, he patted his chest, stabbed a horse and punched twice, and sure enough, he was still vigorous.
Chen Zikun said: "Brother Dahai's body is sturdy, like a locomotive, okay, don't talk much, if you two have to be idle recently, do me a favor." ”
"Be polite, say whatever you want." The daughter-in-law of the sea is also a cheerful person, quick to talk.
"I saw all the things piled up in my yard, I asked them to collect them from the Dong'an market, and the price of these things will increase in two days, and then we will make a fortune for him."
Zhao Dahai wondered: "Isn't it just some iron gauze nets, this thing is very common on the market, do you have any gossip?" ”
Chen Zikun said: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed, in short, you can help me continue to buy, how much can I buy." ”
Zhao Dahai said: "Iron gauze is commonly used to prevent mosquitoes and flies in summer, although it is common on the market now, but the season is not right, the merchant will definitely not press too many goods, but if you want to buy all the iron mesh in the city, I estimate that it will be hundreds or thousands of dollars." Da Kunzi, how much can you come up with? ”
Chen Zikun said: "I can't take it out, so I asked Uncle Xue to pull all the foreign cars to the pawnshop." ”
"Dang?" Zhao Dahai and his family shouted in unison, Da Kunzi always makes people shocking when he does things, and this time is no exception, Dahai's daughter-in-law couldn't help but glance at her husband, usually she thinks that her man is enough to do things, but this time there is finally someone who is more unmusical than him.
Zhao Dahai also thinks so, using the foreign car as a pawnshop, although he can turn over some cash, but there is a lot of discount when redeeming, since Da Kunzi has so much courage, it proves that he must be sure of victory.
"Okay, I'll help you." Zhao Dahai glanced at each other and agreed.
……
In the past two days, Chen Zikun has been busy with the acquisition of iron gauze nets, he mobilized all the drivers of Ziguang Depot and all the manpower he can mobilize, and swept away the iron gauze on the surface of Beijing, as Zhao Dahai predicted, due to the season, the inventory of iron gauze is not much, but it also took Chen Zikun a lot of effort, and it was not enough to take all the foreign cars, in order to make money for him, Zhao Dahai secretly sent his silver shell pocket watch into the pawnshop.
After some acquisitions, the front and back yards of the Ziguang depot are full of iron screens, Chen Zikun bought a lot of wood and a few baskets of iron nails, and took everyone to do carpentry work in the yard, making screen window frames, divided into door frames and window frames, the wood frame is stretched with iron screen, although the process is simple, but the workload is too large, in addition to mobilizing the coachman, Chen Zikun brought the neighbors of the miscellaneous yard to come.
In the past, the quiet yard has become a noisy factory, the sound of sawing wood, the sound of smashing nails converges into a labor symphony, under the coordination and organization of Chen Zikun, everyone is divided into different teams, some cut iron gauze nets, some saw wood headlines, some smashed nails, the labor efficiency is greatly improved after the formation of the production line, plus there is a strong logistics group to cook and cook tea for everyone, each meal is either meat dumplings or white flour steamed bun stew, apricots carry teapots everywhere to greet, thirsty to drink water, don't be tired.
Chen Zikun came back from outside, and just stepped into the yard, suddenly a little boy passed in front of him with a small hammer, almost tripped, and was pulled by Chen Zikun: "Dog, what are you doing." ”
Gou Yu is Zhao Dahai's six-and-a-half-year-old son, and he grinned: "I'll help my father work." ”
"Son, you're naughty again." Zhao Dahai walked over and put his son on his shoulder, looked back at the mountains of screen frames, and said with some concern: "Da Kunzi, your capital is not small, in case ......"
"Hehe, no in case, you see." Chen Zikun handed the "Morning News" in his hand to Zhao Dahai, with a very eye-catching black headline on it: "Interim Rules for Public Toilets of the Beijing Normal Health Bureau Introduced"
"Oh, Da Kunzi, you are a god, an unpredictable prophet!" Zhao Dahai browsed ten lines at a glance, and couldn't help but marvel, the newspaper published very clearly, the Beijing health authorities carried out mandatory sanitation maintenance on the city's official thatched houses, including adding iron mesh doors and windows to prevent mosquitoes and flies breeding, spraying disinfectants, regular cleaning, special maintenance, etc., for convenience, the division of maintenance responsibilities is disposed of according to the old practice of the manure industry, that is, the expenditure of this money should be counted on those fecal valve heads.
Chen Zikun said with a smile: "Brother Dahai, it's not that I don't know the prophet, but this rule is made by me, although the Health Bureau has made a slight modification, but the specific terms have basically not changed, I am thinking of taking this opportunity to get some benefits for everyone, so I will make my own opinion, in order to prevent the news from leaking, so hide it from everyone, don't be surprised." ”
"You kid, there's a set." Zhao Dahai excitedly punched Chen Zikun in the shoulder, looking back at the higher and higher screen frames, his heart was happy, this time he could make a lot of money.
After the newspaper published the provisional rules, except for Yu Deshun, who regarded this as the same thing, other dung industry bosses just scoffed, but the newspaper caused an uproar in society, and all walks of life expressed strong support, and some university professors even published poems in the newspapers, claiming that the official thatched houses in the streets and alleys were "a cancer in beautiful Beijing". It is said that President Xu Shichang also made a speech, instructing that hygiene must be done well.
It was not until this time that the bosses of the dung industry woke up and hurriedly purchased all kinds of sanitary equipment, such as iron screens, fly swatters, lime powder, and disinfectants, but all of these things rose in price overnight, especially the iron screen to prevent mosquitoes and flies, which was extinct in Beijing, and the ocean with white flowers could not be bought.
This is going to be a personal life, although the iron gauze is not a valuable thing, but there is no factory to produce this inside and outside Beijing, and the only way to order is to go to the factories in Hankou and Shanghai, so how can it be too late, the health bureau can send a message, don't do it if you don't do it well, there are a lot of people waiting to contract the manure, such as Yu Ji is not bad......
The sense of crisis came, the dung bosses everywhere to buy these life-saving goods, they were really found, a car factory in Xuanwumen specializes in iron screen windows, iron screen doors, and the size is in line with the specifications of the doors and windows of the official thatched house, all hardwood strips nail iron screen, the quality is very good, the iron screen door also comes with a stretchy old foreign car rubber inner tube, which can automatically close the door.
Almost overnight, all the screen doors and windows made by the Ziguang Depot were sold out, and even the scraps with the hoarded iron screen were sold.
The coachmen received the money, happily went to find a small restaurant to drink, Xing'er's family usually has no regular business, this time by helping Chen Zikun to make a lot of money, each of them received a thick red envelope, Chen Sanpi's wine money is there, Guo'er's book fee has also fallen, Xing'er and her mother are even more happy to close their mouths.
"Da Kunzi, I have a house, I have a family business, it's time to become a family." Xing Niang said.
The apricot on the side secretly turned red.
"I'm still young, so I'm not in a hurry." Chen Zikun said heartlessly.
Xing'er stomped her feet and left, Xing'er Niang sighed, mother and daughter were connected, of course she knew her daughter's thoughts, to be honest, Da Kunzi's guy is really good, except for no father and no mother, he can handle everything, he looks dignified and has good character, and he will make money, such a good son-in-law can't find it with a lantern, but unfortunately, it seems that Da Kunzi doesn't mean that to Xing'er.
This matter is not in a hurry, take your time, women chase men in the veil, there will be opportunities in the future, Xing'er Niang is full of confidence.
……
The next day, Xiong Xiling suddenly sent a housekeeper to invite Chen Zikun over, and Chen Zikun went back to the house to take a burden and followed the housekeeper.
Coming to the living room of Xiong Mansion, Xiong Xiling's face was a little strange today, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, so he said lightly: "Sit down." ”
Chen Zikun sat down with a golden knife, his eyes blazing: "Elder Xiong called me here, but for the reform of the dung industry?" ”
"That incident, don't mention it for the time being, I received a call from the National Police Department today, saying that someone is hoarding Juqi and doing speculative business in my name." There was a hint of regret and anger in Xiong Xiling's tone.
Chen Zikun smiled: "This is nonsense, I have long expected that there will be young people to do this." ”
Xiong Xiling said: "You have swept all the iron screens in Beijing in the past few days, and recruited a group of workers to make screen windows and doors overnight, taking advantage of the introduction of public toilet management rules to make huge profits, is this all fake?" ”
Chen Zikun was extremely calm: "It's all true. ”
"Alas...... You disappointed the old man. Xiong Xiling picked up the tea bowl and didn't want to say anything more.
The housekeeper shouted at the door: "Send off ~~~"
Chen Zikun did not leave interestingly, but laughed.
Xiong Xilingqi said: "Why are you laughing? ”
Chen Zikun said: "I laughed at the old Xiong's fame, but I was blinded by Xiaoxiao. ”
Xiong Xiling was even more strange: "How do you say this?" ”
Chen Zikun said: "I am hoarding, but I am not strange, everything I do is for the sake of Beijing's environmental sanitation and the livelihood of the people at the bottom." ”
