After the design institute sent two experts to follow Cao Zhiqiang to the courtyard he bought to actually visit and investigate, Cao Zhiqiang left the key and asked the two experts to stay and look at it casually, evaluate it casually, lock the door by himself, and go back to the design institute by himself.

As for him, Cao Zhiqiang, he didn't stay to make trouble, but asked Yang to take him home safely.

Leave professional things to professional people, which is the right way to use talents.

When Cao Zhiqiang asked for leave in the factory before, he issued a sick note and took three days off, but today is only the next day, and there is still plenty of time.

Today he officially got a courtyard house, and also set up a high-end decoration company such as the design institute, in a good mood, he naturally hurried home to copy the book code.

The words are just a lot of money.

To make money, don't stumble, of course, you have to race against time.

"Boss, there's something I don't really understand."

The person who questioned him was Yang An'an, a special car driver and assistant who was pedaling three wheels.

If Yang An'an was still a little restrained in the face of Cao Zhiqiang at the beginning, but he was a little familiar, especially after realizing that Cao Zhiqiang's personality was more casual, he would be able to let go.

At the very least, you can take the initiative to ask questions as you do now.

"Oh? Old Yang? ”

Listening to the other party's question, Cao Zhiqiang, who was sitting on the back seat of the tricycle with his eyes closed, said casually without opening his eyes: "What don't you understand?" ”

Yang An'an said: "I just think, why do you spend 5,000 yuan, what kind of design do you ask those people to do?"

And these 5,000 yuan, is it just to buy them a design plan?

In fact, if you want to decorate the house earlier, I advise you not to go to that design institute.

Truth be told, I know a bunch of people who are very good at their craft, and they are free to design, so you can give you whatever style you want.

Spend less money, do a good job, and have a way to decorate materials, so why bother looking for those experts who look down on people and spend that unjust money?

No matter how they design, don't they just draw pictures and work in the end, or don't they still find someone else?

If your 5,000 yuan is directly given to my friends, it will definitely be able to decorate you properly, so why bother with the design institute? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, opened his eyes and said: "Lao Yang, I understand what you mean, but the so-called scenery should be long-term, sometimes be a person and do things, you should have a long-term vision, and you can't just stare at the small profits in front of you." ”

After a pause, Cao Zhiqiang continued to explain: "Do you think I don't know, find someone else to decorate, design is free, and it is more cost-effective?"

The problem is that I spent the 5,000 yuan, not only because of the design level of those people, but also because of the signboard of the design institute. ”

"The signboard of the design institute?" Yang An'an was puzzled, "What do you mean?" ”

"Literally." Cao Zhiqiang said, "The current Beiping Design Institute is indeed a little collapsed, but the level of the people is there, the history is there, the honor is there, and the signboard is there."

If nothing else, let's just talk about the Great Hall of the People, the Museum of History and Revolution, and the Workers' Stadium, which of these buildings is not a well-known name?

If we want to put it in the past, or put it in the future, we don't think we will have the opportunity to find someone to design an ordinary courtyard house for us, and people don't bother to do this.

But now, when they are at their weakest, I am a fool if I don't take the opportunity to pick up the leaks.

You think, in the future, if people know that the hotel opened by my family was designed and decorated by the Beiping Design Institute.

Doesn't that mean that my restaurant is the same brother as the Great Hall of the People, the Museum of History and Revolution, and the Workers' Stadium?

Can that card be the same?

When the time comes, even if my family's food is a little more expensive, do you think it's worth it?

In case it is open to tourism in the future, any Hong Kong and foreign businessmen will have to come to me for a meal after coming, or they will come to the capital for nothing, and they have not really tasted authentic Chinese food.

I've thought of all the slogans, it's a pity not to go to the Forbidden City, and it's useless not to eat it.

Oops, I haven't thought about the name of the hotel yet, so I look back and think slowly, and I'm not in a hurry.

In short, when you do this, are you instantly tall?

When the time comes, our restaurants will talk and laugh with a lot of money, and there will be no white dings.

Then get some special menu, specifically to scare people, what palace jade liquor, one hundred and eighty glasses.

People who come to eat in our restaurant must feel that this place is very high-end, very high-end.

In this way, coming to our restaurant is not just to eat, but also a symbol to prove one's identity and status!

You say that a restaurant like this is not trivial to make money?

What's more, it is difficult for ordinary people to get reinforced concrete and glass for decoration nowadays.

But the design institute is a professional counterpart, and it is very easy for them to get the index of reinforced concrete.

If I look for your little brothers to decorate, I will get some wood for me, or some paste and adobe bricks, can it be compared with reinforced concrete? ”

"I see." Yang An'an suddenly realized, "Boss, you plan to do so, high, it's really high."

It's a bit expensive, 5,000 yuan. ”

"Money isn't that important." Cao Zhiqiang said lazily, "As long as it is worth spending, it is enough, if you really want to make money, is it not easy?" ”

Yang An'an was dumbfounded: "It's easy to make money? Why don't I feel it? ”

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Of course, it's because you're too honest."

However, people are different from people, although you are too honest and not good at starting your own business, as long as you can be a person and follow the right person, you don't have to worry about money in this life. ”

"Yes." Yang An'an smiled, "Just follow the boss?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang yawned and closed his eyes again: "Almost." ”

Speaking of which, that's all Cao Zhiqiang can say.

After all, he has a deep relationship with this Yang An'an, it is an employment relationship, and it is impossible to say everything.

Could it be that Cao Zhiqiang will tell him how good the design institute will be in the future, and how good it is to pick up the leaks now?

Furthermore, the design institute is a public institution at this time, what are the benefits of handing over such a unit?

The group of experts and professors in the light who have not died until now, don't look at the poor now, but the network energy contained in it is definitely not something you can think of as a three-wheeler.

Money isn't important, it's relationships that matter.

In the end, Lao Yang asked, it seemed unintentional, but it was most likely that he was thinking about this decoration fee, and wanted to pull this job himself, at least to earn an introduction fee.

This wind can't last long.

The driver will do the driver's job well, and you must not have too many ideas, otherwise, you will not be able to use you.

Next, Cao Zhiqiang continued to close his eyes and recuperate, while Yang An'an stopped talking and continued to pedal silently for three rounds.

However, just when Cao Zhiqiang was about to fall asleep in a daze, he suddenly found that the tricycle braked suddenly, shaking Cao Zhiqiang for a long time, and woke up in a flash.

"What's going on?" Cao Zhiqiang, who sat down again, hurriedly asked.

Yang An'an's expression was serious: "Report to the boss, someone has robbed the road!" ”

Cao Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment, quickly opened his eyes, and looked ahead.

Sure enough, I saw five young men and women in different clothes and poor eyes in front of me, standing or squatting in the middle of the road.

"Who are you?"

Yang An'an jumped down suddenly, took out a galvanized water hose from the bottom of the tricycle, held it in his hand and pointed ahead, and shouted loudly.

"What do you want to do when you block the road in broad daylight?"

"Hey, hey, hey!"

The young man in the middle, who was a little dark-skinned, slightly chubby, with a toad mirror on his eyes, a big back combed on his head, a crumpled jacket on the upper body, and a bell bottom, suddenly laughed fiercely.

"I said, you stinky pedaling three-wheeler, do you want to be so energetic?

What's going on with you here?

Can you not put gold on your face?

We're not here to find you, we're here to catch up with our own brothers.

Hurry up and get out of the way!

Don't take a broken pipe and dangle it in front of your brothers.

It's really us off, be careful to clean up with you! ”

"That's it!" Next to the toad mirror, a long-haired young woman wearing butterfly shirt and bell bottoms and high heels followed with a grin, "Don't get me wrong, this big brother, we are good people, we are not here to find fault, don't be nervous, hehe." ”

"Hey!"

At this time, next to the long-haired girl, a young woman with short flat hair, a blue cotton jacket on her upper body, army green pants on her lower body, and a pair of army green rubber-soled shoes on her feet, squatting on the side with a standard Asian squat, holding a cigarette in her mouth, and constantly playing with a butterfly knife in her right hand suddenly squinted and said coldly:

"Pedal three wheels, this has nothing to do with you, get out of the way and don't be nosy!"

"Hadron!" At this time, the chubby young man who was the first to speak, with a toad mirror with a big back, and was obviously the head, suddenly said loudly.

"Don't play dead, get out of the car!

What's the matter, when I saw a few brothers, I didn't come to say hello?

You can't really want to break up with us, right? ”

Well, as soon as you hear this, you know that these people are not good.

However, Cao Zhiqiang sighed softly instead, and then smiled.

The day has finally come.

Sure enough, you can't leave it to chance.

It is impossible to forget history, because history will come to you on its own initiative, and it will not exist because you pretend not to see it.

Yes, in fact, when he saw these three men, two women and five people, Cao Zhiqiang recognized them, they were Cao Zhiqiang's acquaintances or gangs when he was in the society before.

It's just that after Cao Zhiqiang crossed over, he took the initiative to cut off contact with them and went to work in the factory.

But this cut off the connection, only unilaterally by him.

In other words, it's just that he no longer goes to those people to fool around, and he doesn't officially engage in any procedures or formalities for separation.

Well, in fact, they originally got together because they had similar interests, and there were no procedures.

To put it bluntly, these people are just a bunch of fun-loving gangsters, just because they all like to dance black and get together, and often play together.

In the 21st century, it could be called a dance meeting, and then a dance would make friends together to form a disco association or something.

But in this period, their behavior is a proper second-rate son, a street ruffian.

Actually, that's exactly what happened.

Because these people not only love to dance, but they also extort money.

It's just that they are not extorting large enterprises, but some self-employed people who set up stalls.

To be precise, it is those gray self-employed people who do not set up stalls on the bright side, but in the alleys of the black market.

For example, those who sell foreign tattered clothes, smuggle foreign junk and small goods, and sell pirated audio tapes are basically their targets of extortion, and these people have to pay them protection money.

If you don't pay the money, they will target you, keep up with you, and then find an opportunity to directly block the road and beat people and steal things.

After a few times, those small self-employed people who have no background can only admit it and obediently pay the money.

Alarm?

That's not daring.

It's useless at all!

They are very smart, and the targets of their attacks are those who sell not very serious goods, such as selling pirated Hong Kong and Taiwan audio tapes, or foreign tattered clothes imported from the south, and I heard that many of them are the clothes of dead people from abroad.

The self-employed who do this are breaking the law, and they don't dare to call the police at all.

And even if you do call the police, you have no evidence of this kind of thing.

As long as you don't arrest you, as long as you don't admit it, the police can't do anything about you now.

But afterwards, they will continue to retaliate against the person who called the police.

So no one dared to call the police, and no one dared not pay the protection fee.

But those who can't afford to go to the south to buy goods, just sell some snacks to support their families, they won't move.

It's not that they're kind, but it's that the impact of this vulnerable group is too bad, and once something happens, not to mention that the relevant departments won't let them go, and other hooligan gangs won't let them go, because it breaks the rules.

So, it's actually a small gang of street ruffians who are a little clever and have their own way of survival.

The predecessor Cao Zhiqiang actually followed this kind of extortion, otherwise, where did he get the money to eat, drink and have fun with people everywhere?

After Cao Zhiqiang crossed over, why was he so scared and ran to work as a worker early?

Don't you just know that your predecessor has these black histories?

He thought that as long as he cut off contact with these people and went to work in the factory as he should, there should be no problem.

There was really no problem before, he had been working for so long, and these people never came to him again.

However, because of his own black history, he has never really relaxed his vigilance, and he never feels that it is really okay.

Now it seems that his worries are not superfluous.

It seems that the long-planned plan is still going to be used.

Never mind.

Anyway, I've done a lot of preparation for this day.

Even if you don't come, I'll go to you.

Everything is ready now, and only the timing is missing.

It just so happens that you are here at this time, and the advantage is in me, but it saves me a lot of trouble.

Since you are unkind, do not blame me for being unjust!

If you seek death by yourselves, don't blame me for being ruthless!
