Chapter 497: Female Workers Laid Off in the Eighties (11)
"Is speculation so profitable?
No wonder so many people are willing to take risks, my God, our family can't save a thousand dollars a year without eating or drinking, they can save it with one trip, the old saying is true, no wonder there are always people who starve the faint to death and support the courageous. ”
Wang Jianguo, that is, the eldest son of Aunt Wang, couldn't help but be shocked at this time, he had indeed heard that some people had made a lot of money by doing speculative business, and even started a house, but he really never thought that he could make hundreds or thousands of dollars at a time.
It's so much that it makes people bleed.
Aunt Wang, who was sitting next to him, quickly patted him on the back of the head and scolded in a low voice:
"Don't think about me, you kid!
It's also illegal to speculate and make money from that thing, don't give me any small actions and ideas, just serve the iron rice bowl of the steel factory in your hand now, and live a good life.
Don't spend all day thinking about what you have and don't. ”
"Mom, what are you worried about, I'm not so bold, but now at this time, if you say that the work of the steel factory is an iron rice bowl, will it be a little bad, my bowl is about to be smashed."
Xiaojuan's bowl has been smashed.
I haven't seen anyone arrest people who do small business on the streets, only those who sell clothes, shoes and watches are a bit dangerous, and it should not matter if they sell food, they are agricultural and sideline products, and now many rural people bring their own chickens and vegetables to sell.
Sister Qiao also said.
She earns three or four dollars a day. ”
Of course, Wang Jianguo is not bold enough to dare to speculate or anything, not to mention, he doesn't have the capital, these years, even if it is speculation, then he has to have the capital to buy, his money is in his mother's hands, how can he have the money to speculate?
He just thinks that Qiao Mu's small business is quite attractive now, if he can really have a fixed income of three or four yuan a day.
That's definitely more than working in a factory.
"Can the income be stable?
Allowed now, who knows if it will be allowed in a few days, in a few years, uh, Xiao Qiao, I'm not targeting you, I'm just a little worried about it. ”
Aunt Wang just wanted to say more about her son, but immediately thought that Qiao Mu was still beside her, and hurriedly apologized with a slightly apologetic face.
At this time, even if people are laid off and retired, they still have an unwavering belief that the work of state-owned factories is equal to an iron rice bowl, and they feel that they are unreliable in doing business, and they may not make a profit or a loss, which is far less stable than an iron rice bowl.
At this time, everyone is more willing to seek stability.
Not to mention this time, even in a few decades, there are still many parents who firmly believe that only jobs such as teachers and civil servants can be regarded as iron jobs, and hope that their children's jobs can be stable.
"Oh, it's okay, it's normal for you to have such worries, if I didn't get through, I wouldn't choose this path, you guys discuss it with your own family, don't care about my opinion, I'm just putting forward an idea."
By the way, I haven't had dinner yet.
I'll go back first! ”
Qiao Mu came mainly to understand the situation, and making suggestions was just a matter of incident, so he naturally didn't want to stay here for more after speaking.
Immediately took his leave and left.
After Qiao Mu left, Wang Jianguo continued: "Mom, Sister Qiao, she was really forced into a desperate situation, and she could only do some small business, although our family was not forced into a desperate situation, but the family's savings are obviously not much, I estimate that it is less than two thousand yuan, and our family can't sit on the mountain."
Xiaolong is in his third year of high school this year, whether he goes to college or junior college, he has to ask for money, whether he wants to get married after school, just such a small house in our family, is there still a place to live, the second Xiaohu is also in his first year of high school today, and it won't be long yet, what can I do with my salary alone?
Do you still think that deposit is enough? ”
Many things are like this, some people only think about the present, and some people think further.
Wang Jianguo is obviously this kind of person.
It's true that their family doesn't have much money now, but what about next year, two or three years from now, or even four or five years from now?
He doesn't know if his job is stable now, and he also heard that the above seems to be preparing to cut their salaries, or even pay only half of their wages for the time being, so as to avoid more layoffs.
In that case.
It's bound to be harder.
Hearing this, Aunt Wang and her daughter-in-law Yin Juan couldn't help but start thinking in the direction that Wang Jianguo said, and for a long time, their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had to admit that Wang Jianguo's consideration was correct.
The two sons in the family will go to college or junior college in the next year or two, and they may have to get married in five or six years, so there are too many places to use money in the future.
Thinking of this, their family quickly discussed for a while, and finally decided to make something at home and sell it first, of course, out of prudence, Yin Juan still told her mother-in-law, and then took a few eggs to Qiao Mu's door and knocked on the door, ready to ask Qiao Mu for experience.
Qiao Mu was not surprised that she had come.
Because when he left, Qiao Mu felt that Wang Jianguo might have made up his mind to do it.
Therefore, Yin Juan was immediately welcomed in.
And all questions are answered.
At the same time, I gave her some advice.
For example, what is she good at?
It is better at the following strips.
I'm still good at making steamed buns.
Or make ravioli or something.
Is there any secret recipe?
In the food business, you have to be distinctive, no one is willing to buy without characteristics, not to mention that everything in the house has to be distinctive, but at least one or two characteristics that can be obtained.
If there is no feature, then you have to make less, small profits but quick turnover, you have to be full and affordable.
You do the same as other people's homes, and even not as good as other people's homes, why should customers go to your house to buy, isn't it, in fact, no matter what business you do, at least there must be a point to attract some customers, whether it is cheap, delicious and easy to use, or convenient, you have to take a little bit.
However, after Qiao Mu finished saying her suggestions and ideas, Yin Juan was suddenly a little dazed:
"Is it so troublesome to do business?"
"That's not it, if you don't mind going out of business at a loss or not making money, then you can do it."
Qiao Mu shrugged back.
"Yes...... But I'm not unique.
The steamed buns I wrapped, the noodles under ......"
The more Yin Juan spoke, the more frustrated she became.
Because she found that she really didn't seem to have much talent for cooking, and the food she cooked, her family was actually not very happy to eat, anyway, she felt that her skills were simply not comparable to those chefs in state-run restaurants.
That's it.
It seems that this business can't be done.
