The two walked upstairs, and as soon as Zhu Xiaohua sat down in the office upstairs, he heard Li Shufen's whisper downstairs:

"The two of them went upstairs to talk, didn't they inform your brother Lao Qiao?"

Zhu Xiaohua was a little unhappy after hearing this.

Chen Xiangwan also seemed to be aware of the delicate relationship between Zhu Xiaohua and the two downstairs.

He asked in a low voice, "Brother Zhu, what do you need me to do?" ”

Zhu Xiaohua said: "Tomorrow, we will officially go to develop the railway station. I will first take you to familiarize yourself with the working mode, and after you are proficient, I want you to lead the team independently to develop the three major bus stations in the east, west and south and the surrounding markets. ”

Chen Xiangwan was excited after hearing this: "Brother Zhu, is it really? ”

Zhu Xiaohua smiled slightly: "Of course it's true." But if you don't behave well, I'll regret it. ”

Chen Xiangwan: "Then I will do my best not to let you regret it." ”

Zhu Xiaohua smiled slightly.

The next day, Zhu Xiaohua took Chen Xiangmaru to Lucheng Railway Station.

This is his second visit to the train station.

The area around the station is still crowded, and the crowds are like water.

On the front of the station, you can see three huge red characters on a white background when you look up: Lucheng Station.

To the east there is a small yellow house with the words: Ticket Office. There is a long queue in front of the ticket office.

There are those who drag suitcases, those who carry burdens, those who hold children, and those who put their hands in their pockets and look around.

On the muddy floor in front of the station, there are some vendors selling snacks, soup dumplings, and orange soda. They parked their trolleys on the sidewalk and waited for customers to come to their door.

According to Zhu Xiaohua's instructions, Lao Qiao had already transported four boxes of popsicles early.

Lao Qiao also met Chen Xiangwan, he taught him, and said: "We divide the labor, I am responsible for wholesale, and you are responsible for retail." Since it is near the train station, the retail price should not be too cheap, so I recommend starting with six cents. ”

Lao Qiao handed over a small box of popsicles to Chen Xiangwan, while he guarded several large foam boxes.

He thought that the three of them would work together as usual.

Zhu Xiaohua said: "Old Qiao, you still go to look at Xiangshan Park and Bailu Temple Scenic Area, I'll come here." ”

He was worried that the 15,000 popsicles a day in the rear market would go unattended.

Lao Qiao was a little surprised, in the past, when they developed new markets, he worked together with Zhu Xiaohua and Jia Liang, but now the situation seems to be a little different.

Old Qiao said: "Only the two of you are left at the train station, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Zhu Xiaohua said: "The railway station is just testing the waters, and the rear is the main battlefield. When it's four o'clock in the afternoon, just ask your brother to come over. ”

According to Zhu Xiaohua's idea, at four o'clock in the afternoon, no matter whether the popsicles here are sold out or not, he will withdraw.

It's good to be sold out.

If they are not sold out, the remaining popsicles can be immediately transferred to other markets.

At that time, it was enough to ask Old Joe's younger brother to come and carry it.

And Old Joe had to supervise the situation in the rear.

Old Joe put down the big foam box, left his permanent bicycle, and said, "Then this means of transportation is left for you." ”

He walked to a nearby bus stop and finally took the bus back to the shop at the intersection of Xuefu Road.

As soon as she returned to the shop, Li Shufen was surprised: "Brother, why did you come back so soon?" ”

As she expected, they shouldn't be back until it gets dark.

Lao Qiao left Zhu Xiaohua and Chen Xiangwan at the train station and sent him back to take care of other markets.

Li Shufen was surprised again: "I'll just say, no wonder they were mysterious and secretive yesterday evening, and they talked behind my back and your brother." Call Chen Xiangmaru upstairs to talk. ”

Lao Qiao was stunned, he hadn't heard Zhu Xiaohua mention this situation.

However, it is expected that most of what the two are talking about is also about how to develop the railway station market.

Lao Qiao said: "Chen Xiangwan was selected from the work-study students, and it is normal for Xiaohua to value him more seriously. ”

Li Shufen didn't see it that way, she added fuel and vinegar and said, "Are you the patriarch?" ”

"No matter how good Chen Xiangwan is, he is only a newcomer after all, Zhu Xiaohua should not take this newcomer and leave you, the veteran, behind."

Lao Qiao was a little confused, I don't know if it was because he was busy after the substantial expansion of his business, or because Zhu Xiaohua intended to do so, he obviously felt that Zhu Xiaohua rarely talked to him about his ideas in recent days.

Especially after his younger brother and daughter-in-law came, Zhu Xiaohua suddenly became polite and unfamiliar with him.

Li Shufen looked at Lao Qiao meaningfully and said, "Big brother, you brothers are too honest and easy to be deceived. I still have to tell you that the heart of defense is indispensable. ”

Old Qiao naturally understood the thoughts of this younger brother and daughter-in-law. She is saying that Zhu Xiaohua has always regarded herself as an outsider and has never thought of sharing money with herself. After the business is big enough, Zhu Xiaohua is likely to kick himself away.

As is the case today.

Lao Qiao shook his head firmly: "Zhu Xiaohua is not this kind of person. ”

Li Shufen was speechless.

However, if you can't persuade your eldest brother, it's always okay to make more money.

She said, "Since you don't want to speculate about him like that, then we can always make more money while we are here." I am asking for a salary increase from today to five dollars a day. ”

Old Joe was a little embarrassed, he still had the power to raise his salary.

Zhu Xiaohua told him that he could set the salaries of his younger brother and daughter-in-law, and he didn't need to report it.

However, the increase in wages to five yuan, which is 150 yuan a month, is much higher than the wages of ordinary workers in Lucheng City, and it is obviously unreasonable.

He was a little embarrassed.

"You are still not Mingyu's eldest brother, you make so much money every day, and you are reluctant to give me even a five-day salary."

Li Shufen complained.

Lao Qiao said: "Now that no one is getting such a high salary, I can't give you a raise." ”

Old Joe always felt that this was inappropriate.

After all, it is still the time to fight the world, and it takes a lot of money to buy goods every day, and with the expansion of the scale and the increase of personnel, it is inevitable to buy some necessary supplies.

As a result, it is inevitable that expenses will increase.

He still adheres to the habit of living a poor life, and saves when he can.

Li Shufen didn't give up, and said: "Originally, when you asked us to come over, we all thought that the eldest brother was the boss and came to enjoy the blessings."

"Yesterday I was boasting in front of your parents that my eldest brother could sell 15,000 popsicles a day, and his career was very good.

"I didn't expect that my eldest brother would become a big boss, and my younger brother and daughter-in-law would still suffer when they came over, if this is the case, Mingyu and I might as well just go back."

Old Qiao is soft-hearted, and his face is a little unbearable.

After all, this is his own brother and daughter-in-law, not an outsider.

Half of this popsicle business is his own, don't he even have the right to raise the salary of his younger brother and daughter-in-law?

Moreover, Zhu Xiaohua said that the salaries of his younger brother and younger brother-in-law are determined by him.

Old Joe said: "Forget it, it's up to you." The salary has risen to five yuan, you are the same as Mingyu, you are both five yuan. ”
