"We rarely grow kiwifruit in Beijing, right? Is this thing a good plant? Disko asked.

"I don't know, we haven't planted it before," the second aunt said worriedly, "Xiaoshan came to take money from me last time, but I didn't give it to him, because I was afraid that kiwifruit would not be good for wintering in Beijing, and if the fruit froze to death, all the money would be wasted." ”

She observed Disko's expression and asked, "Old Five, do you have any ideas?" If you have anything, you can say it directly. ”

"It's not an idea, I think if you're not sure what to plant, you can actually consider doing economic forestry and flower farming."

His grandmother's family had a long history of flower farming, and later the above required to vigorously develop agriculture, planting flowers, not eating and wearing, everyone turned to planting land and planting fruit trees.

But the older generation is very good at raising flowers.

All the plants in his courtyard are taken care of by his second aunt, and now the greenery in the small courtyard is very good, and there are seasonal flowers blooming every spring, summer and autumn.

The second aunt's ability to raise flowers can be regarded as a craft for eating.

"Raising flowers?" The second aunt was a little tempted, "Can this work?" ”

Disco nodded and said: "The market situation has a lot to do with the above policies, two months ago the Municipal Greening Committee just held the capital greening and beautification work meeting, to use the market mechanism, increase the green area of Beijing's urban area, the development of economic forestry and flower industry. As long as the above attaches great importance to it, there is no worry about no market. ”

Moreover, Yu Tong Company purchases a lot of potted flowers every year, and the second brother can also purchase some.

They then contact other companies to provide targeted flowers and flower maintenance services to others, and the business can still be done.

The second aunt has been in the city for a long time, and she has some knowledge, so she hesitated when she heard the words: "I can try to grow flowers, but those in my family are stupid, and they don't know how to sell them." ”

In the past, when they planted fruit trees, they could wait for the fruit merchant to come and receive the goods.

But after planting the flowers, you can't just wait at home, right?

You have to find a way to get out and run the market.

Her family can only farm at home, and the outside business can't stand up.

"Don't let Brother Xiaoshan go out and try it, how do you know that people can't do it?" Disco recommended a candidate to her, "If you really want to do this business, you can actually try to cooperate with my sister-in-law, who is a serious sales talent." ”

The second aunt has no prejudice against Lin Tong's pyramid schemes, and in recent years, he has grown from earning a few hundred a month to earning tens of thousands a month, which is enough to prove the other party's ability.

Lin Tong's mouth when she was selling to people, she had seen it, as long as the people she was targeting, few of them could get out of the way without spending a penny.

"Can Kobayashi be willing?"

"I don't know, I have to ask you and Brother Xiaoshan their opinions first, if you decide to raise flowers and are interested in cooperating with my sister-in-law, I will mention it to my sister-in-law."

The second aunt couldn't sit still, "Why don't I go back and discuss with Xiaoshan and them?" ”

"You can call first, if Brother Xiaoshan has this meaning, you can go back."

Suddenly changing from planting fruit trees to flower farming, of course, the family can't pat their heads to decide.

After the second aunt brought the news back, the whole family got together for a meeting, and also went to a flower breeding garden in the next township, as well as several large flower wholesale markets.

In the end, it was concluded that the earning of selling flowers was more profitable and capable than planting fruit trees.

But the family has not raised flowers for many years, and now they need greenhouses to raise flowers, and no one can guarantee that this business will make money.

Therefore, the Guo family decided to plant half of the fruit trees and half of the flowers, even if the flowers were raised, at least there would be fruit trees, so as not to drink the northwest wind.

After hearing about his second aunt's decision, Disco quickly invited his eldest brother and sister-in-law to come to the house for dinner.

Lin Tong was quite measured this time, and he didn't ask his uncle to work in Tengfei.

In fact, if she mentions it, Disco can really arrange a sales job for her.

Sales is based on performance, and my sister-in-law has the ability to do this, and he is also willing to be virtuous and not avoid relatives.

But the sister-in-law only inquired with Yu Tong about the salary of her company's logistics post, and after hearing that it was only a few hundred yuan, she didn't mention it again, and went to the talent market to find a job.

However, according to the eldest brother, Lin Tong's job search was not smooth.

She is not highly educated, and she is already in her forties, and she will reach retirement age in a few years.

Some people of her age even retired from illness or withdrawing early.

When people go out to find jobs in middle age, they have to compete not only with young people, but also with their peers who have been laid off from state-owned enterprises.

I finally found a sales job, but I only had a commission and no basic salary. If she doesn't want to do it, there are a lot of people waiting to take her place.

Lin Tong has recently gone out to sell with a list of goods on his back every day, and everyone has been blackened by several shades.

Disco carefully introduced the business of the second aunt to the eldest brother and sister-in-law.

"It's hard to say whether grandma's business can make money, but indoor and outdoor flowers are indeed a more promising industry, and now the city is engaged in greening construction, if you can catch this bus, you may be able to eat some dividends."

"Grandma's family is good at breeding, but the market and sales are poor, and they also want to find a sales talent who can support the outside business." Disco smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is very talented in this area, and my second aunt and I are very optimistic about my sister-in-law." And this line of work has to have some connections, sister-in-law has worked in foreign companies before, and has dealt with agencies and enterprises, and may be able to open the market very smoothly. ”

Lin Tong loves face, and she has been strong all her life, and her ability has been affirmed by her brother-in-law, which makes her whole person bright.

She didn't hesitate for a moment and said, "Since the fifth child said that I can do this, then I'll try it." However, the flower base on the second aunt's side has not yet been built, and I have never done this before. I want to find a temporary job at another flower company or flower base to see how people do business. ”

"That's for the best." Disco picked up his wine glass and touched it with his sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law has determination and execution, and she is a very suitable person for business." But my brother also has to settle the accounts, so I will discuss with my sister-in-law for my second aunt first, how to calculate this salary at that time. ”

"Do you want a base salary plus a commission, or just a commission? According to the market situation, if you don't have a basic salary, the commission can be increased by two points. ”

Lin Tong was silent for a while, and the two brothers next door had already touched the cup twice, before she suddenly asked: "Fifth brother, do you say that I will invest some money and partner with my second aunt to set up this flower base?" The second aunt is in charge of breeding, and I am in charge of outside sales. ”

"How much does my sister-in-law want to invest?"

Lin Tong summed it up in his heart, leaving the tuition fees for the two children to go to college, and then leaving some daily expenses, and the rest can be invested, "How about I invest 50,000 yuan?" ”

She can see that she can't make much money working for others, so it's better to do some business by herself.

She blindly trusts her brother-in-law, since this business was introduced by her brother-in-law to her second aunt, she will definitely be able to make money.

The little uncle pointed out this path to the second aunt, and it was impossible to see her lose money.

So, even if she has to take the risk that some flowers may fail to grow, she is willing to make a move.

Disco thought for a while and said: "50,000 yuan is not a small amount, but sister-in-law, the second aunt and uncle have a lot of land and labor, and the total investment is also a lot, and your 50,000 yuan may not account for too many shares, and it is more difficult to want 55 points." And we also have to consider the issue of risk, the land belongs to other people, once the second aunt and aunt regret it, and after a few years I don't want to raise flowers and want to plant something else, the money you invest now will be wasted. ”

Guo Meifeng listened for a long time, and finally couldn't help but interject: "Your second uncle's family is an honest person, not a person who regrets halfway, but doing business should be one and two two, if your second uncle agrees to you to join the family, then you will sign a contract at that time." Stipulate the content of the regulations, we don't take advantage of others, but don't suffer either! I think it's good to let Xiaolin partner with your second uncle, and you can expand the scale of the base if you invest money in it. ”

Let Lin Tong have a regular business student, and she won't have to worry about the old family.

*

The business of the sister-in-law and the second aunt, Disco did not have much opportunity to interfere.

Guo Meifeng, who participated in the hearing of the Municipal Price Bureau, thought that it was no longer what it used to be, and took over the work of the microphone to help coordinate in the center.

And Disco doesn't have time to care about any flower bases, and Tengfei has recently encountered a trouble.

Although the financial market on the mainland is not mature, the financial crisis that has swept through Asia has also had a great impact on the mainland.

At this time, the country maintained the demeanor of a great power, insisted on not depreciating the renminbi, and indirectly helped other countries survive the financial crisis.

However, the renminbi does not depreciate, which has a very great impact on the mainland's export-oriented enterprises.

Our goods do not have a price advantage compared with those of Southeast Asian countries.

Even if Tengfei has used the self-developed decoder board to keep the export price as low as possible, it still has no effect.

Since the beginning of this year, Tengfei's monthly export volume has been decreasing.

The international market share has shrunk sharply, and the management of Tengfei has held several meetings in succession, but is still helpless.

This is a problem of the international environment, and the country's export volume has been greatly affected, and it is not something that Tengfei can change by itself.

Therefore, after discussing and discussing, we decided to focus on the domestic market, the current market ownership of VCD DVD players is only more than 10 million, compared with the social ownership of 280 million TVs, VCD DVD players still have great market potential.

However, just when everyone was gearing up to do a big job, General Manager Quan Kairui suddenly put forward a proposal that surprised everyone.

Downsizing!

When Disco heard this proposal, his head was full of question marks.

State-owned enterprises have only laid off workers, not laid off employees.

The reason why the iron rice bowl is an iron rice bowl is because it can be held for a lifetime.

After being promoted, the unit will not dismiss the workers unless they are dismissed from public office, or the enterprise is not operating well, and the workers are laid off on a large scale.

But Quan Karry also has its own reasoning.

He has been in Tengfei for a year, and this year has basically followed the plan made by Disco.

He has no work experience in the enterprise, and he does not dare to experiment with such a large enterprise without authorization, so he has been following the previous path step by step.

However, with the technological progress and industrial upgrading in the past two years, many positions that take off no longer need so many people.

It used to be a job done by one person, but now it is a job done by two or even three people.

This invisibly adds a high labor cost to Tengfei, so he wants to cut redundant staff.

Let Tengfei continue to travel lightly.

"ACF, I support your idea and know that you are doing the right thing. However," Disco frowned and said, "Since the beginning of this year, the life of state-owned enterprises has not been easy, and the situation of our take-off is quite good, and many enterprises have been carrying out large-scale layoffs and diversions." This wave of layoffs is bigger than any previous year, and I have laid-off relatives at home, and it is said that the talent market is no longer able to get off its feet. ”

"If we join in the excitement at this juncture and let the workers be laid off, the pressure on the city will be very great."

It is impossible for laid-off workers to be laid off obediently, and eighty percent of them will go to the city.

It's not that you can't go on with take-off, why do you want to make the leader unhappy at this juncture?

Isn't this just waiting to be criticized?

Quan Kairui sighed: "I have also thought of other methods, thinking that I can adjust these more than 300 people to service positions, such as service companies or staff hospitals." ”

However, there are no vacancies in the service company, and the management rights of the staff hospital are in the hands of Beijing Medical University, even if a cleaner or janitor is arranged, it must be agreed by others.

The extra 300 or so people can set up a new business, and there is no place to place them.

Disco stabilized him first: "General Assembly, let's wait a little longer for this matter and discuss it in the long run." You must keep the news of the layoffs tight, and don't leak it. ”

It's not that he doesn't want to solve the problem, but he really doesn't have time now, and he's going to take the exam for a working graduate student tomorrow!

If there is any problem, wait until he finishes the exam!

He started reviewing in mid-January, and after four months of intermittent review, he was finally going to the exam room.

Master's students are recommended by the unit, so since the college entrance examination, this on-the-job examination is the most formal examination he has experienced.

Only his family knows about his Ph.D., and on the unit's side, except for the person who helped him issue a certificate and seal it from the personnel department, he didn't tell anyone else.

In case it falls off the list, it's embarrassing.

On the day of the official exam, Disco got up according to his usual schedule, but when he washed up, his Guo Meifeng, Mr. Yu, Di Sihui and the twins had already gotten up and dressed up.
