Chapter 194, Transition, New Business Opportunities
I remember that I watched such a sketch in my previous life, called "Cheer Up", which seemed to be performed by Huang Hong, and there was a passage in the middle that impressed him deeply.
Or rather, let their generation remember it vividly.
"The director of the factory paid special attention to me, saying that the unit should be reduced and the factory should be merged, and I made a statement at that time, who will be laid off if I am not laid off!"
It is said that when they saw this skit at the time, some people were so angry that they smashed the TV.
From the perspective of long-term development, a series of economic policies in the 90s were correct, but it must also be said that in these years, layoffs were a major event.
Laid-off families generally do not have high requirements, as long as they have rice and oil at home, coarse tea and light rice, and they will not starve to death.
As for the idea of being a little extravagant: if you can really give some money, you won't say anything.
When Lu An took Ye Run to the vegetable market, he found that the former vacant land was crowded with stalls in the past few months, and the stalls were not selling some rare goods, mostly vegetables, daily necessities, snacks, clothes and shoes, most of which were not organized and managed.
Individually, you can also see two dealers selling electronic watches, calculators, game consoles, and cassette tapes.
Ye Run was a kind-hearted person, and he couldn't help but whisper to him after watching all the way: "Do you think they can support their families?" ”
Lu An told her that as long as the mouth is not too stupid and the attitude is not too dragged, it is basically not a problem to set up a stall to support the family in these years, and even some later generations of bigwigs have accumulated the first original funds by setting up stalls, and they will become bigger and stronger later.
Thinking of this, thinking of some news that I often see in later generations, what a self-made man, what did not graduate from elementary school and seize the opportunity to become a big boss, Yunyun and so on.
He had to sigh: it was not so much that they seized the opportunity, but that the opportunity seized them.
Lu An felt that among these strongmen, a large part of the initial foundation was as ordinary as the general public, and there was no so-called super talent, but with tenacity, coupled with a sense of luck, they slowly worked hard.
Because he subscribed to the 5-cent newspaper, Ye Run is now passively in love with reading the newspaper, and every time she sees the news about layoffs in the newspaper, she is full of worry, she pulls the hem of Lu An's clothes: "Do you think the school teachers will be laid off?" ”
Lu An turned his head: "You are worried that Aunt Hu will be laid off." ”
"Hmm."
Lu An comforted: "Then don't worry, teachers are in short supply of resources in any era, and the society urgently needs talents, so this will not happen." ”
Although Ye Run loves to quarrel with him, he is still very convinced of him in many things, and when he heard this, he immediately felt a lot more relieved.
"I'm going to call my mom later."
"I don't think it's going to wait, just now, we might drink later."
Ye Run listened to his advice and turned around and went to a public telephone room not far away.
Lu An didn't wait, and also went to make a call.
The first call subconsciously called Meng Qingchi, but before he could say a few words, someone next to him was shouting and screaming, urging the doctor to hurry up, he died of pain, help him take a look first.
"Xiao An, I'm waiting for nothing, my sister will call you."
Missing his phone calls several times, Meng Qingchi felt a little guilty.
Of course, she also understands that if she really wants to contact Lu An, she can always squeeze out time.
The reason why I didn't take the initiative to fight was because I was afraid that he would say something lovesick, and then he didn't know how to reply, so many times he turned a blind eye and fooled the past.
After experiencing Lu An's tireless pursuit, she also learned to be obedient, about him and Qing Shui, she is now ignoring and not mentioning a word, she is worried that interference will cause Xiao An to rebel, and if she doesn't get it right, she will force herself in turn.
I tried to call the eldest sister's tailor shop 3 times, but it was busy, this is outrageous, is the business so good?
After waiting outside for about ten minutes, after Ye Run came out of the cubicle, Lu An handed a 100 piece to the boss, "Pay it together." ”
The boss is an interesting person, and he took the money after taking a look at Ye Run.
When the two came to the small courtyard on the second floor, a large table had been set up in the courtyard, which was full of large bowls of vegetables and meat, and a fire was burned with wood, and a circle of people were bragging and chatting around the fire.
In addition to Zeng Ziqian and the 7 brothers and sisters who first saw him, Li Dong also waited here early.
Seeing the two of them, Chu Zhi got up and trotted over, "Brother, Sister Ye, you are finally here, you are still here, we are all going to reheat the dishes." ”
Lu An nodded: "I encountered something on the way, so I delayed for a while." ”
Li Dong's legs and feet were completely neat, and after hugging Lu An, he said to Ye Run, "Why are you looking at me with such eyes?" Look at me with goosebumps. ”
Ye Rundong looked at it, and looked at it in the west: "How much fat have you gained?" Do you have ten pounds? ”
Li Dong smiled embarrassedly when he mentioned this, "My family Qianqian took care of me too well, and I gained 12 pounds." ”
Lu An was speechless: "This winter has just begun, you continue, and strive to gain 12 pounds." ”
Ye Runbian flattened his mouth: "It's okay to be 20 pounds fatter, but now the meat is worth a lot." ”
Li Dong wanted to say something rude, but when he saw Zeng Ziqian coming over, he immediately muttered: "I can't fight you two mouths with one mouth, and I don't have the same knowledge as you." ”
After a few words of greeting with everyone, Lu An took Ye Run to sit down, and poured wine and tea for the two of them for the first time.
Lu An asked, "Why is it all soju and not beer?" ”
Hatsumi said: "Brother, it's cold now, everyone says that the beer is not strong enough, and the soju is delicious enough, and I will die of warmth after drinking it." Brother, why don't I buy you a beer? ”
Lu An shook his head: "No, I'll just make a drink, but you go and help Ye Run, Ziqian and your sister go buy some drinks, they can't drink such strong wine with them." ”
Unexpectedly, Li Dong said: "Hey, brother, you don't know, they all like to drink and burn."
Before Li Dong finished speaking, Zeng Ziqian had already stood up, "I'll go buy some drinks, I'll accompany Ye Run to drink drinks." ”
Lu An didn't stop him, this Li Dong is a simple man, but his daughter-in-law is a son who sees her son, and she is very spiritual.
Ye Run didn't want to leave her alone, so she also followed, and when she saw that her sister had eyesight, she went together, and after a while, she bought more than ten bottles of Coke and came back, one bottle per person.
I didn't drink much soju in the past, mainly because Lu An was easy to get on as soon as he touched this, and he didn't know what was going on, and he felt that he was more drunk than liquor.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone became a talking basket.
Dressed in a black leather jacket and shiny leather shoes, I still couldn't help but worry at the first sight, "Brother, when did you say I was a head, look, I thought I had a few money, and I was no longer a second bastard, and now my identity is bright, but when I called Cuicui Village, her father scolded every time, and we were not allowed to contact us, and threatened that even if Cuicui became an old girl and married a lame blind man, she would not seek relatives with me." ”
Lu An was not surprised by this kind of thing at all, but just asked, "What is Cuicui's attitude?" ”
Crazy at first sight: "She wanted to sneak over to my side, but she ran twice without success, and was caught by her three brothers and caught back." ”
Lu An turned the wine glass in his hand and asked, "Do you hate them?" ”
Hatsumi poured a glass of soju hard, "I don't have anything, I don't have the ability to hate them, I just don't have a bad heart." ”
Lu An recognized his micro-expression and said, "Actually, this is not a problem, as long as you become a corner, they will choose to forget the past, and they will in turn praise your stinky feet." ”
Hatsumi stiffened his neck and asked, "So how is it a corner?" ”
"Rich! There's a lot of money in your pocket! ”
Lu An put down his wine glass, pointed to a family in the courtyard next door to the left, and said: "There is such a house with a yard, and there are cars in and out, so it can barely be regarded as a character, and when the car drives to Cuicui Village, there will be no worries." ”
Chujian stood up and looked next door, and didn't dare to imagine: "Brother, you are too bluffing!" I'm afraid I won't be able to do this for the rest of my life. ”
Lu An patted him, motioned for him to sit down, and looked around at the crowd, "Believe me?" If you believe me and follow me to work hard, this car and house are not a dream, and everyone here can afford it in three or five years."
I wanted to output some chicken soup for the soul and draw a big cake, but before the cake was finished, I saw Hatsumi and the other 5 people excitedly picking up the wine glass to salute him, and said a bunch of bold words in their mouths.
Li Dong was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart, good guy, my brother has collected a bunch of horses, with these people, he will not shout and beat anyone in the future? No one dares to bully one acre and three points of land in Jinling?
All of them are drunkards, talking about brotherhood, drinking soju as water, and after six rounds, Lu An drank more than four taels.
When he pinched the time and was about to leave, Zeng Ziqian and Chu Jian chased after him, "Boss, we found out that there are competitors in Jinling." ”
Lu An stopped, frowned and asked, "Who?" Is it also Master Kong's beef noodles? Is the manufacturer so unparticular? ”
Zeng Ziqian said: "No, it's Tongyi instant noodles, and it is said that the big boss also came from Wanwan." ”
Seeing that he was silent, Chu Jian was anxious to ask for instructions: "Brother, as long as you send a word, I will take my brothers to copy them." ”
Lu An kicked him: "What? Do you still want to fight in the street? Into the game? Make your sister cry? ”
When I first saw it, he patted his trouser legs, bent over and smiled: "I have changed my ways, and I don't use a knife, but they are blocking your money, and I can't swallow this breath." ”
Lu An waved his hand: "The market for instant noodles is very large, we are good, and our opponents are at best, they are just small fish and shrimp in this big market, as long as you work hard, you can eat your stomach to your heart's content, and you can't make a big move." ”
I was a little unwilling at first sight, but I still let out a heavy sigh and kept this in my heart.
Lu An saw that Zeng Ziqian wanted to speak and stopped, and asked, "Say, what else do you have to say together." ”
Zeng Ziqian said: "Boss, I recently took a fancy to a daily necessities for ordinary people, and it is estimated that there will be a very marketable market." ”
Lu An was curious: "Tell me, what is it?" ”
Zeng Ziqian said: "Arowana edible oil, I saw in the newspaper that it is recruiting distributors, I think this is an opportunity, if it is operated well, its potential is not as good as Master Kong's beef noodles." ”
Hearing that it was the famous Arowana cooking oil, Lu An almost instantly agreed with this idea, and opened his mouth to come: "Yes, there is vision, I also saw this news a while ago, but I was too busy to tell you, you and Hatsumi let it go, he has had an experience in this matter, and he shouldn't need me to come forward." ”
Hatsumi slapped his chest loudly: "Brother, don't worry, if you can't get the distribution right of Arowana cooking oil, I'll cut off my head and use it as a urinal for you." ”
Ouch, this person is good anywhere, he can afford to endure hardship, but the habits of the rivers and lakes are too heavy, Lu An smiled: "Keep your head, I believe you, otherwise Cuicui will find me someone to trouble me when the time comes." ”
Then he asked Zeng Ziqian: "How much money is in the account this month?" ”
Zeng Ziqian said: "Excluding all expenses and next month's budget, by the end of the month, the boss can withdraw 70,000 yuan." ”
Lu An nodded: "Yes, you did a good job, you don't need to rush to give me this money, you can take it as an agent for Arowana, the money is more confident." ”
Zeng Ziqian had this idea and immediately accepted it.
When he came to the road outside, Ye Run whispered: "Lu An, you are so powerful, the first time I saw a gangster, you trained him to be a serious person, and he became your laying hen." ”
Lu An disagreed: "Although I mixed it at first sight, its nature was not bad, and everything I did was just to survive and make ends meet."
It is said that water flows to low places, and people go to high places, and now that I have pointed him to a bright road, he is naturally willing to come out of the darkness and follow the light. ”
When she came to the school gate, Lu An said to her: "I have other places to rush, so I won't send you back, it's not dark yet, you go back to the dormitory early." ”
Ye Run knew that the student union was holding a celebration party today, so he didn't say much, just instructed: "You have already drunk a lot of wine, you have to keep it." ”
After Lu An saw her enter the school gate, he turned around and crossed the street.
When he arrived at the student council field, everyone was drunk, and the college basketball team caught him, saying that he was too late to punish himself with three cups.
There was nothing to say, it was the rule, and Luan drank three beers in one go.
These bastards were very good at playing, and they even drank wine, and the beer was mixed with white, and when Luan drank with them until the third round, he had a hunch that he might get drunk today.
Tang Min touched a glass with him and asked, "They said that you went to the wine bureau, did you drink a lot before you came?" ”
Lu An smiled and said, "I have to catch up later." ”
Zou Qiang was stunned: "So popular? ”
Lu An knew that the two had misunderstood, "When there is a classmate's birthday, I have to go." ”
Lu Keer came over at this time: "I think it's a female classmate, right?" ”
Lu An said: "It's a female classmate, but it's Liu Jiaquan's girlfriend." ”
Liu Jiaquan had already reported and had already left here, and the three of them believed it, and Lu Keer pulled him aside and whispered: "I will discuss something with you." ”
Lu An asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Lu Keer said: "Do you want to be a singer?" ”
Lu An was surprised: "Do you have a resource channel?" ”
Lu Keer thought he was tempted, and immediately took advantage of himself: "My aunt is from the music industry and has her own company in the capital, if you want to develop in this area, I can take you there." ”
Luan shook his head and turned to leave.
Lu Keer walked quickly and stretched out his hand to stop him, and comforted: "Lu An, with your external conditions and your musical talent, you have made a lot of achievements in the music world, maybe you are Leslie Cheung from the mainland." ”
Lu An felt strange: "Why do you want me to enter the music scene so much?" ”
Lu Keer said: "I don't want to watch your talent go to waste. ”
Lu An didn't believe it: "What else? ”
Seeing that he was not easy to fool, Lu Keer said very bluntly: "I'm interested in being an agent, I want to be your agent, and when the time comes, I will take care of all your external affairs, and you only need to be responsible for music creation." ”
Lu An still shook his head: "I understand, senior sister, you want to use me as a cash cow, the agent is not your end, right?" ”
After speaking, he no longer took care of the ambitious senior sister, got out of the hotel, and rushed to Lao Zhao Hotel.
Zou Qiang came over and asked with concern: "You were smiling a lot just now, why are you frowning now?" ”
Lu Ke'er took a deep breath: "I was rejected by him again, this is the third time." ”
Hearing this, Zou Qiang didn't know what to say, that distressed one.
Lao Zhao Hotel.
Lu An arrived at exactly 7:20 a.m., 20 minutes later than agreed.
He has been here a few times, and the first time Chen Mai passed a note to himself saying that he didn't bring any money happened in this hotel. The hunchback boss is a nice nosy guy.
The hunchbacked boss was very impressed with him and took the initiative to say hello: "You are here." ”
"Eh, good evening, boss."
Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, Lu An is sweet wherever he goes.
In fact, it's not just the mouth that is sweet, those confidantes in his previous life all said that he was also sweet, especially where there was ice cream, it was the sweetest, so sweet.
The hunchbacked boss pointed to the staircase on the second floor, "You're in private room 201." ”
Luan is a little confused, object? Do you mean Huang Ting, or Chen Mai?
It can't be Chen Mai, right?
But he didn't bother to ask, and went straight to the second floor.
Lao Zhao Hotel is relatively large, the second floor of the aisle on both sides are private rooms, there are as many as 9, in this year has been regarded as strong, I heard that this is the boss self-built.
The location of the 201 private room in the direction of the road, he directly excluded it, and then looked for it one by one, and found that only 3 of the 9 private rooms were occupied.
