Chapter 66: Corn
"And that's just some of the reasons!" Yang Xianjin continued: "Battalion commander, you also know, our wholesale department earns the money of self-employed people, and the more self-employed people we earn, and the less self-employed people, our business will be lighter!" Before, we could earn 50,000 or 60,000 yuan a month because of your good idea, we were at the forefront and no one competed with us, and there were many self-employed people at that time. But now...... There is a competitor with such strong funds, and now the national crackdown on economic crime is in a depression, our goods are backlogged in the company and cannot be sold, and there are even many self-employed people who ask for returns! That's why I wonder if we should just take it when we see it, and if we stop now, not only will we not lose but we will make a lot of money, if we continue like this......"
"Comrade Yang Xianjian!" I interrupted Yang Xianjian's words and said, "You are indeed right to look at this problem from the perspective of a businessman, and the risk will be much smaller if you stop now." ”
I have to admit this, because I know that the nationwide crackdown on economic crime in history will not stop so quickly, but will go further with the crackdown, which is why many wrongful convicts will not be rehabilitated until 85 years.
For example, the Eight Kings of Wenzhou, they are because their superiors realize that if these people are not rehabilitated, the economy will not be able to develop at all.
In other words, this business slump will continue for several years.
"But we are soldiers!" I said, "The purpose of setting up this company in the first place was to hope that those soldiers who were discharged from the army due to injuries could have something to rely on, and it was for the sake of other factors such as military families. If now this company is over. What do we let those soldiers do? What to do with those military dependents? ”
"I know!" Yang Xianjin on the other end of the phone said in embarrassment: "But it's not a way to go on like this." If it continues, we will have to face these problems even if the company collapses, but it is only a difference in the length of time, and it may be even worse by then! ”
I feel helpless in my heart, Yang Xianjin is right, judging from the current shape and situation, continuing to run the company is just drinking to quench your thirst.
But......
"I still don't agree to end the company's business!" I said: "It is true that this is the time of economic depression, but it is also precisely this time that we have the opportunity to occupy the market, on the one hand, no one else can intervene." On the other hand, it is difficult for us, as our opponent Fuxiang Company is also difficult, and even Fuxiang Company has opened seven branches in one go in order to seize the market with us, which means that they may be more difficult than us. ”
"Battalion commander, what you said also makes sense." Yang Xianjin sighed and said: "But you don't know this Pan Shunde, although the scale of the hotels he opened in Hong Kong is not large, but there are as many as three, I sent someone to inquire, we estimate that their monthly income is about 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars, that is, about 300,000 yuan (in 82 years, the official price of RMB against Hong Kong dollars is a one-to-four exchange rate), plus his accumulation over the years, his funds have accumulated to a certain extent." In addition, Pan Shunde can completely tear down the east and west to make up the western wall, and use Hong Kong's profits to fill the mainland's capital gap. As long as they survive this time, they will have a good future. And we ......"
I also understand the next words Yang Xianjian, just now I wanted to say that I would take back the dividends of our troops, and now I will swallow these words back into my stomach...... Damn, this Pan Shunde can earn 300,000 yuan a month in Hong Kong, and the little money from our fund is not enough for him to stuff his teeth!
"Anyway, it's a matter of money, right?" I say.
"If we do business, it won't be a problem of money, but what else will it be?" Yang Xianjin replied helplessly.
"I'll figure it out when it comes to money!" I said, "Your task is to give up the idea of ending the company's business and run the company well!" ”
"Battalion Commander ......"
Yang Xianjin wanted to say something more, but I didn't want to listen to it anymore, so I hung up the phone with a "bang".
"What? Gone wrong with your business? Zhao Jingping asked beside him.
"Battalion commander!" The instructor handed me a cigarette: "Otherwise, we will end the business, and we won't lose money now!" ”
I didn't say anything with a straight face, my temper is that once I decide something, I don't like to be persuaded by others, it's like a war, if this battle has to be fought, then I won't think about retreating or surrendering.
So what I need is someone to give me ideas to get through this difficult time, not to persuade me to change my mind, after all, the instructor is in charge of ideological work, so he doesn't understand this.
"Why don't you ......," Zhao Jingping said, "Let's donate the money again, or if it's not enough, let the comrades make up a little more?" Because of the experience of the last time, this time the fighters will definitely donate more! ”
I know what Zhao Jingping means by this, the money donated to the company last time was doubled, and many soldiers regretted not donating a little more, so if you donate again this time, of course, the amount is only a lot more than last time.
But I quickly shook my head again and denied the building...... We only have a few dollars in our hands as soldiers, even if we initiate many donations are just a drop in the bucket for Pan Shunde, and if we want to rely on donations to fight a price war with him, it is almost a fool's dream.
At this time, I knew what heroic shortness of breath is, you must know that our synthetic battalion is omnipotent on the battlefield, how many ace troops of the Vietnamese army have been trampled under our feet, if you want to say how majestic you are, you can say how majestic you are, but now you are suffocated by these few money, and you can't help it by the money that we regard as dung on the battlefield!
But what can you do if you don't have money?
To steal and rob?
Of course, this is unrealistic, even if I am willing to do those soldiers under my command, I will not do it, the soldiers of this era are all advanced!
Use the training of the troops to save some money?
This does not seem to be appropriate, although our synthetic battalion does not lack this training fund, but if we do so, it is very likely to affect the training of the troops, which will cause people to die on the battlefield. Second, after a long time, Commander Zhang will definitely find out, how will I, the battalion commander, face him at that time? What's more, the saved funds are still not enough to deal with Pan Shunde, then I just don't please both ends!
This person will think wildly when he reaches the end of his rope, and these stupid methods that I would not normally consider at all, now have to be moved to my mind one by one over and over again. Even I wondered how good it would be to bring the old man's legacy from the present day, and all the problems would be solved. It's just a dream.
"Battalion commander, battalion commander......" Just when a few people in our office were worried in the office, Scar broke in with a bag of things, and then without saying a word, he put the bag of steaming things with a strong burnt fragrance on the table, and shouted: "Battalion commander, instructor, eat corn, just baked corn that has just come out of the oven!" ”
"Hey!" Without saying a word, the instructor stepped forward and scolded: "I said that you, the second company commander, didn't the battalion commander let you train hard?" Why is the corn still roasting during this training time? ”
"How can you!" Scar laughed, "This is what we did during training, the soldiers got some raw corn from the cooking class, and took an iron box and tied it to the exhaust pipe of the tank...... The corn was ripe after a few laps of the tank! This is not? In order to thank the battalion commander for saving my father, I specially wrapped a bag to thank the battalion commander for coming! ”
Hearing this, the instructor couldn't help but be stunned, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "You soldiers, the tanks have let you use them to roast corn!" I really don't know what to say about you! ”
As he spoke, the instructor untied the cloth bag and picked one out of it and handed it to me: "Come, battalion commander, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, eat a piece of corn!" ”
I couldn't help but be stunned when I looked at the yellow and black corn in front of me, because it reminded me of what Pan Shunde said when he was in a Western restaurant, when he was showing off in front of us with a piece of corn, saying that there is no land to grow corn in Hong Kong, so corn is completely dependent on imports from abroad, and the restaurant he opened spends thousands of yuan on corn every day.
I don't know if he's talking about Hong Kong dollars or renminbi, but even if it costs a few thousand yuan a day, it is enough to show that corn is very expensive in Hong Kong.
However, corn is everywhere in the country...... This thing has strong vitality, strong vitality means that it is easy to plant, and the country is vast, so this corn is as much as rice.
According to the law of the market economy, that is, scarcity is expensive, corn is expensive because it is less or even no in Hong Kong, but it is cheap because it is more in China and easy to plant, and even in some places there is so much corn that it cannot be eaten and is used to raise pigs and feed chickens.
So why can't we sell corn to Hong Kong?
I even remembered that when I was a child, when I refused to eat corn, the old man smacked me on the head: "Stinky boy, do you know that these are all money, it was these inconspicuous corn cobs back then, and when they were sold in Hong Kong, the price immediately doubled!" ”
I thought it was strange at the time...... Yo ho, don't look at the old man, you still know Hong Kong!
Now that I think about it, didn't that show me the way!
Thinking of this, I stood up with a loud voice and shouted, "There is, there is a way!" ”
"Is there a way?" The instructor and Zhao Jingping both looked at me inexplicably, they didn't understand how this good hand me a corn would suddenly come up with a solution.
"Battalion commander?" Zhao Jingping still didn't believe it, and asked cautiously, "What do you mean...... Thinking of a solution to the money? ”
"Yes!" I said, "Pick up Comrade Yang Xianjin for me immediately!" ”
This time, we want to do business in Hong Kong, if Pan Shunde knows that just because of his inadvertent or a sentence used to show superiority, he led his competitors back to life, and even put him in a desperate situation in the end, I am afraid that he will even regret his intestines!
