Fang Bai was busy with the negotiation of 10 billion investment projects, and the number of his contacts increased to 148.

The mayor, three deputy mayors and important leaders of individual departments contributed a total of 8 contacts.

With only 12 points left to upgrade, Fang Bai plans to get in touch with more contacts in the near future and raise his ring finger to level 5.

At level 4, he added the function of strengthening his body and favorability, which benefited him a lot.

He has a strong sense of anticipation for the higher-level Goldfinger, and he doesn't know what it is like to be at level 7 and above.

It can be said that his current desire for the Goldfinger upgrade is more than anything, if it weren't for this, he would have made so much money, and he wanted to lie flat and do whatever he liked.

Life is short, and there is no need to make yourself tired like a cow and lose the meaning of life.

Of course, Fang Bai didn't have a backache when he stood and talked.

He is not short of money, wealth will be more and more, family happiness, although the family used to be a little heartwarming, but it has passed, relatives and friends to him and his family to pursue or flatter, standing at his level, not to care about the past, but too lazy to think, not to take it to heart.

In this era, most families are still struggling to solve the problem of food and clothing, and their annual income is less than 1,000 yuan.

And his family lives a fairy-like life, saying that the meaning of life for the poor has not yet reached that level, they only think about how to survive.

Especially this winter, I don't know how many people are freezing and starving.

On the twenty-seventh night of the Lunar New Year,

Fang Bai and his family ate hot pot and chatted about the 10 billion project.

"Brother, why did the bank lend us so much money, do you have such a good relationship with those bank presidents?" Fang Tingting listened to her family talk about business and knew that her family owed a lot of debt to the bank, which she couldn't imagine.

The family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and she sometimes thinks about how much wealth there is for 100 million, and she has a vague concept.

Anyway, she knows that it is difficult for many students in the school to eat a meal of meat, and a meal costs less than five cents, and she has already lived the life of an eldest lady who is envied by her classmates, with a bodyguard by her side and a set of photography equipment of hundreds of thousands of yuan.

She is also a poor child, but the family has changed too much in the past two years, she sometimes feels like she is dreaming, and she is afraid that one day the family business will fail, how to repay these bank debts, and if she doesn't get her family to go to jail.

Under the influence of her ears and eyes, she still understands some business at home, and her horizons are broad, and she is no longer the country girl who didn't understand anything two years ago.

"It's useless to have a good relationship, it's all a relationship of interests, you think that a dozen points of interest a year are given for nothing.

You just have to remember that except for your family, you are all about trading interests, and don't be easily deceived by rhetoric. Fang Bai reminded.

"Brother, I still have a few good friends."

"This is also one thing I want to remind you in particular, if you know it before the development, it may not be true;

What you know after development is not necessarily fake.

People will change, you have to be good at analyzing the flattery of the people around you, don't be condescending, don't look down on others because they are flattering you.

In short, be good at making friends with people who are honest and reliable, not just what you think is good. Fang Bai taught earnestly, still a little worried that his sister would be deceived.

In her previous life, her family was poor, and no one was eyeing her at all.

Now the situation is different, someone must have hit her idea.

"What your brother said is the truth, usually with a set of crooked ideas, it is still difficult to deceive him." Liu Fengqing agreed with his son.

"Oh, yes, I'll take notice." My sister puffed up her mouth and listened to her family's words, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

Fang Bai glanced at it and sneered: "Hang Erlang, I think you have been deceived a few times, it is better to teach you a long lesson, and you will also have a long memory, so as not to suffer a big loss in the future." ”

"Brother, have you cursed your sister like this?"

"Your brother is right, after suffering a loss, you know that the heart of defense is indispensable; Once you were fooled, you know that being a man requires multiple eyes. My mother nagged, "When I sold TV, I received several fake money at the beginning, and I will remind me to collect money in the future."

Now that the business is getting bigger, I'm afraid that someone will make fake accounts to deceive me. ”

"In the past few days of vacation, let's go and be a cashier for a few days to exercise." Fang Bai proposed.

When my sister heard this, she instantly frowned: "Wow, my God, brother, you can't treat your sister like this, it's still so cold." ”

She now regrets a little that she had nothing to do about the topic of loans, and got the last family to target her.

"That's it, I'll go tomorrow." Fang Bai said lightly.

When my sister saw that her parents were silent, she knew that she couldn't escape this catastrophe.

I wanted to sleep for a few more days, but no one cared about her, how cool.

After chatting about this, Fang Bai talked about the staff apartment.

A year ago, he promised Sedum, Li Meng and other college students about the staff apartment, this year there is a shortage of funds, but it can be planned, so that the company's core employees have a hope.

Make a plan first, build it after a year or two when the funds are sufficient, and get a house after another year.

The parents don't have any opinions, anyway, the employees pay the cost, and the company just doesn't make money.

Next

Qin Shuyu and her mother-in-law came to the mall to buy New Year's goods, accompanied by Fang Bai.

During the Chinese New Year, the business of Xinghai Shopping Mall was booming, and the management hired temporary workers to help, many of whom were family members of employees.

The mall is crowded with people, and outside the mall, dozens of stalls are set up to sell fructose, pork and other New Year's goods.

"Ah Bai, business is really good, the mall is full." Chen Jiahui pushed the shopping cart and said to Fang Bai next to him with a smile.

Seeing customers walking out of the mall with large bags and small bags ignited the desire of customers who were ready to enter.

Some people who have not been here are also very curious about Xinghai Shopping Mall.

Quite a few people came by car from other places, and business at the wharf was many times better than usual.

"Auntie, it's the New Year, in fact, every mall is almost the same." Fang Bai replied with a smile.

Considering the crowding of the mall, a large number of temporary workers have been recruited, and stalls have been set up outside the mall, and at the same time, the flow of customers entering the mall has been restricted, so I am really afraid of accidents.

Especially for babies and children, the security guard reminds you.

"There are many categories of goods here, the price is moderate, everyone likes to come to buy, this is too lively, there is no such a big shopping mall in Shencheng." Qin Shuyu pulled Fang Bai's arm, really afraid that he would get lost.

"Well, yes."

Fang Bai nodded, he planned to replicate Xinghai Square in Shencheng, just this year!

It was originally postponed, but there is no shortage of funds, and I am familiar with the leaders of the Shencheng government, and I finally have a bit of background in the local area, and the time has entered.

When I came out to accompany the shopping today, my mother-in-law said no, saying that it was not necessary for him to be accompanied by a big boss, just let him be busy.

Fang Bai felt that there was nothing wrong, he also wanted to go out for a walk, see the excitement, accompany Qin Shuyu and accompany his family, there is nothing more important than this.

I have to say that the business is too hot during the Chinese New Year, and the daily passenger flow must exceed 100,000 people, so I have to queue up to limit the flow of entry.

The turnover of the Chinese New Year week is equivalent to the turnover of the past two months.

Many businesses look at the Spring Festival period throughout the year.

After experiencing the holiday business, the company has experience.

Therefore, the company's management attaches great importance to the Spring Festival shopping in the first year, and the supermarket also did a lottery activity, how much money can be spent at one time, and the prize is a daily necessities.

On the opposite side of the mall, Xinghai Group has leveled an open space, which is where there are dozens of stalls selling snacks and even more selling other New Year's goods.

Xinghai Company does not charge booth fees, the only requirement is to clean up the garbage after the stall, do not mess around, and at the same time as long as it does not form bad competition with the shopping mall.

For example, selling fructose and pork, which are sold in the same way as Xinghai Shopping Mall, will definitely not work, and people from the industrial and commercial department will drive them away.

Selling things on other people's territory and being driven away has nothing to say.

There are many small traders who fancy the popularity here, and they can't put it around the Xinghai shopping mall, so they go to the dock to put it, and the industrial and commercial department doesn't care.

Many vendors have been selling snacks for a long time opposite Xinghai Shopping Mall, and they know the rules here, and they know how to collect garbage after closing their stalls.

The management of this shopping mall also told them that after Xinghai Square is put into use, it is necessary to unify the norms and stall vehicles, the sanitary conditions must meet the standards, and the booth fee will not be charged, which is to hope that they will do better business and jointly maintain this market.

The small traders didn't understand Xinghai Group's approach, so they gave them stalls for free.

In fact, this is what Fang Bai said to the management: "You can make a dime by collecting a booth fee, even if you collect a symbolic garbage removal fee."

As long as you bring the popularity of Wuma Street and other commercial streets, the best snacks are in Xinghai Square Food Street, as long as there is a flow of people, I am afraid that the mall will have no business.

If the business of the mall is good and the popularity is strong, the surrounding land prices will naturally soar, and the income in the mall will also increase. ”

There are too many shoppers today, and my mother-in-law picked up a lot of New Year's goods, a car full of them, and queued for more than 20 minutes before checking out.

The whole shopping process lasted nearly two hours, which was still quite tiring.

After leaving the mall, Fang Bai asked a bodyguard to drive his mother-in-law and Qin Shuyu home, accompanied by himself.

When they came, it was the female bodyguard who drove them, and they would follow behind in an SUV.

Now there are many people crossing the river, and there may be a need to queue up, Fang Bai drove around a big circle, and drove nearly 20 kilometers more, but it was faster than crossing the river by boat.

When the bridge is built, it will be convenient, a matter of minutes.

Some people just think that it is troublesome to cross the river, and if they don't buy many New Year's goods, they plan to buy them at the nearby market.

Fang Bai realized this, and at the beginning of next year, Xinghai Square was put into use, and the construction of the bridge must not be delayed any longer.

The construction of the bridge is not large, and it is expected to be completed in a year and a half, that is, in the second half of 1994.

At this time, Chen Jiahui sat on the Daben and touched the wool cushion to praise: "Ah Bai, this car is so stable, comfortable, and warm." ”

"Mom, this Daben costs a million or hundreds of thousands, of course it's good." Qin Shuyu said with a smile.

Chen Jiahui's eyes widened: "Oh my God, it's so expensive, I thought it was only two or three hundred thousand more than Santana." Tsk, one hundred thousand, the total assets of a small company. ”

"Auntie, the tax on imported cars is high, in fact, this car is just like that." Fang Bai, who was sitting in the co-pilot, said.

About half an hour later, Fang Bai sent Qin Shuyu and his mother-in-law home to have dinner with his father-in-law's family and talk about the valve factory.

Jiayu valve factory last year the effect was not bad, the number of employees has been sixty or seventy people, has its own products, but it is still based on processing.

Last year, the output value reached more than 3 million yuan, and the net profit after tax was about 900,000 yuan, and the gross profit margin was not as good as before.

If you put it in the previous year, the per capita output value and profit are very good.

But last year, the valve companies were very good, and the profits doubled compared with last year.

In the past two years, prices have risen a lot, especially steel, from 1,000 yuan per ton to about 3,000 yuan, which is a very big fluctuation.

The average salary of employees has also risen a lot, and the unit price of goods has also risen sharply.

Especially pork, the people shouted expensive, the year before last there were only a few pieces of pork belly, at the beginning of this year less than two pieces, and now that it is the New Year, it is more than four pieces.

Anyway, the price of meat has risen particularly outrageously during this time.

After Fang Bai asked carefully, he learned that the supply of tickets was officially canceled this year, and the price could float freely, so it rose wildly all of a sudden. In addition, people's incomes have generally risen sharply, and many commodities are in short supply, especially pork.

What he didn't know was that in Shencheng these days, pork had been sold for more than six yuan.

It's too late to buy goods from other places, and it's the New Year, and there is a shortage of meat in every place.

I usually don't pay attention to the price of pork, and I didn't see my parents say that I only found out today when I accompanied my mother-in-law to the mall to buy meat.

The supermarket also sells pork, and the Chinese New Year pork is easy to sell, and a few stalls are set up directly outside the mall to sell pork, and customers are more than a few catties to buy, and the rich people buy more.

Xinghai Company has abundant funds, and it has ordered fifty or sixty pigs a year ago, and the slaughterhouse is responsible for slaughtering and delivering meat.

These things are all in the responsibility of grassroots managers, Fang Bai doesn't pay attention to these things, and his parents can't manage so much.

"I made nearly a million last year, but I don't feel as good as the hundreds of thousands of dollars I earned the year before." Qin Donghai lamented that the labor wages are high, and there are many other expenses.

Originally, I wanted to buy a car, but after thinking about it, the company needs money to develop.

Fang Bai and his father-in-law talked about the expansion of the valve factory, as well as the qualification certification, only do a good job of qualification certification, independent research and development of the valve can be sold, which is completely different from other industries.

Fang Bai stayed at Qin Shuyu's house until more than nine o'clock before returning home, and did not go to bed until eleven o'clock in the evening.

I don't know how long later, the walkie-talkie next to the bed table rang.

Normally, he will put the walkie-talkie next to the bed table and turn on the mobile phone.

Only when Qin Shuyu is there, he will put the intercom organ.

Fang Bai was woken up suddenly, and he was a little sullen and the bodyguard next door called him.

His two houses are connected to each other, next door is inhabited by bodyguards, and the surrounding houses are inhabited by company employees, the company is on holiday, and most of the employees have gone home.

The supermarket's grassroots employees are all locals, and they rarely live here.

It was so cold that he really didn't want to get up, but after hearing the sound clearly, he suddenly woke up.

"Boss, boss, do you hear that, do you hear that?

There are underworld gangs ready to pry doors and climb windows, there are a large number of people, you pay attention to protect yourself, don't go out, don't go out, check whether the iron door of the stairs is locked. ”

said it three times in a row, and only woke up Fang Bai for the third time. (End of chapter)
