Chapter 665: A hateful sweeping act
Dingyuan Hou Zhenglian bought all the bicycles in the Carrefour supermarket at once.
There were forty-five of them, and not one remained.
This time, when Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian first arrived, he saw someone riding it on the streets of the Geranza City area, and he felt interesting at that time, he really didn't expect that the two-wheeled object could be ridden fast!
At that time, the third brother Zheng Bin said to the second brother Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian indifferently: "The bicycle is just a bicycle, after pedaling with your foot, the chain is driven, and you can walk.
The second brother, Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian, was a little angry at that time and said, "Why don't you tell me about this object?" β
The third brother Zheng Bin said: "Second brother, it is not suitable for field warfare, and the price is too expensive!" I've tried, but without that layer of Eucommia ulmoides, it wouldn't be very usefulβ"
At that time, the second brother Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian didn't say much, the main task of coming here this time was to be the eldest brother's envoy, which was the most important task, didn't you see that the third brother handed over the factory to others to manage? !
is the same for himself, and the elite soldiers of the Zheng family group in Fuzhou are also handed over to the clan brother to manage.
If the level of the personnel who came this time was not enough, could they Hantang Group take care of it?!
Therefore, compared to this, the most important thing is to put everything aside for the time being, and to be a good envoy.
However, when the task was completed, he remembered it again.
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian said: "That pocket watch, my Zheng family can produce it, but why do you let the Pan family sell it happily?" If it is this bicycle, my family can produce seamed steel pipes for them, why let Hantang Group produce it? β
The third brother Zheng Bin said seriously: "The eldest brother requires us to wait for the products only to serve the Zheng family's army, of course, we have to consider the practicality on land and at sea, and we can only ask for sturdiness and durability, so where do you want to sell them to the people?"
It's the same with this bicycle, if the army can't use it, my eldest brother won't let me process it, many parts are too controlled by the Hantang Group - then the difficulty of chain processing is too great, my family can only buy many of their parts-"
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian was a little anxious and said, "Don't you know anything about military affairs? Why didn't the eldest brother see it?! If there is such a team in my cities of Xiamen and Fuzhou, with firearms on their backs and steel swords at their waists, wouldn't it be more convenient than cavalry? That's the real money saver! β
The third brother Zheng Bin suddenly understood that these two cities, like here, are places where the ground has been hardened, and this bicycle can be very useful.
If this is achieved in Fujian in the future, then what cavalry do you need?
The third brother Zheng Bin nodded and said: "After I ask the eldest brother, I can open a factory for production, and I understand the principles of production and processing." β
The second brother, Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian, said: "Do you still need to ask the eldest brother for this matter? It's right-"
The third brother, Zheng Bin, was silent.
But Dingyuan Hou Zhenglian must have it first, and the forty-five bicycles in the Carrefour supermarket were swept away by him.
The number of tickets on the ticket/ticket in the billman's hand was not enough, so he had to open two.
60,000 horse tickets! Not counting the bells and saddle cushions.
Bicycles are new, as are kerosene lamps.
This thing is cheaper than a whale oil lamp, and it is smaller, and it is brighter than it is lit for a long time.
At that time, after watching the demonstration, Dingyuan Hou Zhenglian's eyes widened, and he said: "Why haven't I seen it in the Carrefour supermarket in Fuzhou?" β
One of his subordinates hurriedly asked, but a person in charge of the service area said: "The Hantang Group has made an explanation, and it will be able to fully distribute the goods in two months, because the supply of kerosene will have to wait a while." β
Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian opened his mouth and said: "Let me wait here for a while, buy them all!" β
Dingyuan Hou Zhenglian also bought up some office supplies, a thousand pens, I really don't know how he wants to use it.
I don't know how he can fancy the sewing machine, dozens of them have been bought.
He didn't even let go of the new women's clothes-
Among the inhabitants of the island of Taiwan, there are three major legends.
Bicycles, pocket watches, sewing machines.
There is no need to express how important these three things are to life, anyway, as long as they live a stable life, they want to have them.
Hantang Group likes Dingyuan Hou Zhenglian's shopping, people don't do anything bad for you, and they also make a one-time payment, all according to the retail price, which is a good thing.
It's just that he has always insisted on buying it entirely in the form of gold and silver coins without using horse tickets, which is incomprehensible.
As soon as he arrived in Taiwan, he immediately began to exchange gold and silver for horse tickets for his own expenses.
He also once inquired about exchanging jade pendants, but Hantang Bank refused.
He said privately that the president of the Hantang Bank was not authentic, on the one hand, he refused to exchange his jade pendant for his bank's horse ticket, and on the other hand, he wanted to exchange his personal belongings in private, there must be a conspiracy, and he would stay away from him in the future.
Horse ticket, as the eldest brother said, this seems to be more useful than gold, it can buy all the items of the Han Tang Group, because as they said, they do not recognize the direct circulation of gold in their market.
In fact, he understands that the most important thing is what the eldest brother said, the more his Zheng family saves, the more polite the Hantang Group seems to be.
But if one day they can't do without their arms, they will never spend them indiscriminately.
Dingyuan Marquis Zhenglian didn't know that his behavior made many people hate!
Originally, he swept away cigarettes, alcohol, and lighters, and swept away new shoes and clothes, which others could endure, and others could wait for a while.
But his sweeping behavior this time made other people's dreams wait for a long time for no reason!
Inspector Feng and his brother Zheng Xiao hated Dingyuan Marquis to death.
The two of them were responsible for delivery and tally in Carrefour Supermarket, and they worked for several years, paying off the money they took out to buy a house with a loan, and at the same time they understood the operation of this supermarket very well.
Seeing how the industry makes money very well knows very well, they will of course be tempted.
Running a small supermarket yourself?
They felt that it was not possible in the main urban areas, and they even went to the Hualien City area to see, no, this Carrefour supermarket was opened.
But there are always opportunities.
In this wonderful spring of 1654, the highway from Geranza City to Taipei City was finally opened.
The project took three years, and it's not all hard ground, 60 percent of which is triad soil. While most people just read the newspaper to learn about its progress, the two brothers were the ones who actually went on the field.
Feng Inspector said: "This road is not the road to Kaohsiung, nor is it the road to the estuary, it is too close, you say, can the people who take the car come down halfway to eat?" β
Zheng Xiao said: "No. It is enough to buy some food at Carrefour. The long-distance bus does not stop, and the customer cannot get off. β
Feng Patrol said: "But it's not okay to go to Taipei City, they have to get off the bus and rest in a day!" β
Zheng Xiao said: "Yes, my eldest brother, so there is a chance." β
In fact, these two brothers missed a chance.
Back then, when their old superiors, the former commanders of the Guangzhou Navy Army, wanted to gather some overseas mercenaries, they had the opportunity to go, and they were originally their subordinates, maybe they didn't know each other before.
However, when he went to the interview, Feng Patrol was selected, and his brother Zheng Xiao was kicked out.
The other party said: "You look like a crooked melon and cracked dates, don't say it, your eyes are still slanted, go out and embarrass me for the umbrella company?" β
According to the price offered by the Sky Umbrella Company, going out for half a year can be compared to their income from two years of work, in fact, as long as they agree to go out, they will immediately pay off the loan of the previous house.
Feng Inspector said at the time: "Zheng Xiao, if we are still mixing in Guangzhou City, the family will just starve to death, and they will be killed for three days and two days; After joining the army with me, my family still couldn't starve to death, so let's get some silver taels, and honor my boss first; Here in Hantang Group, we are more tired than before, but no one dares to bully us, and the tickets we earn are all our own, that is, the technicians of Hantang Group give a smile when we wait for delivery!
Dare to laugh at my brother?! Don't do it, let's go, don't covet their money from selling blood! β
Feng Patrol broke with the unit he spent money on back then!
Look down on my brother, it's just not okay, I'll beat and scold, what are you?!
At that time, Zheng Xiao was moved to hug Feng Xunjian and cry, and said, big brother, don't be impulsive, earn the horse ticket first, and have the settling-in allowance they issued, so let's do our own business!
Look at it, the method that was discussed in advance, Feng Patrol forgot about it.
He also stiff-mouthed, saying: "If you look down on people, you won't be able to make that money, you can earn it with your strength, you can earn it with your brains, and if you look down on my brother, you won't succeed!" β
What else could Zheng Xiao say at that time, it was originally said that no matter who was chosen, he would get a sum of money first, and noticed that the bus to Kaohsiung and Hekou had to be filled with charcoal and water, and this job could be done by a woman, right? If you can't keep it, can you get off the bus and buy something?!
It's a business, but there's no capital right now!
But the words and deeds of the eldest brother made Zheng Xiao cry, but it didn't solve the problem.
The Hantang Group's bus to Kaohsiung and Hekou halfway through the business of adding charcoal and water was done by others, and the two brothers calculated that if they could operate, they would earn more than they would go to work.
They don't know how to do the business of passengers, they just add charcoal and water and sell some big goods.
However, the last opportunity was missed, and there will be more.
On this road to Taipei City, do you know how many places like this with charcoal and water?!
By this time, the two of them had already paid off the mortgage.
The two of them went to Hantang Bank and asked, people like them can take out loans, but they must have collateral, but they can't be self-owned houses.
At that time, Zheng Xiao said: "It's normal, they are afraid that I will lose money, so they dare not borrow money." β
Inspector Feng said: "Bullshit, did they ask me if I was going to wait?!" Go to Baofeng Bank and ask! β
The people from Baofeng Bank received them, listened carefully to their plans, and said, "I can provide this venture capital, but the interest rate is higherβ"
Zheng Xiao was nervous at that time and said, "How tall?" β
The person from Baofeng Bank said: "Don't worry, the Pan Family Group will abide by the regulations if it does not exceed the amount of interest on private loans stipulated by the Hantang Group. β
The two brothers worked hard, and when they were bidding for the supply point of the hot Taiwan route, they chose a good location, which is the area called Taichung by the Hantang Group.
The two brothers built a supplement station in this place, which was responsible for serving the passing buses.
Both bravely quit their old jobs.
Because they had a contract in their hand, the bus company asked them to promise to add coal, charcoal, and water to them.
Similarly, bus companies may promise them to pay a reasonable price.
At this time, these two guys made full use of their experience in the Carrefour supermarket and made the business here impressive.
But when they could develop further, they didn't expect that Dingyuan Marquis Zheng Lian would sweep the goods and hate him to death.
