The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

On this day, Qiao Minglang continued to stay in his uncle's office, helping him with some work, and looking at some things his uncle gave him by the way.

When encountering something that he doesn't understand, when he sees that his brother-in-law has finished handling the things in his hand, he will take the time to ask.

Zhang Huaiyuan was also willing to take his little nephew hand in hand, explaining some of the joints to him, and said, "Just take a look at these things and get a general understanding. Theoretical knowledge is important, but your experience should be more important. And accumulation, you are still young, take your time, don’t worry.”

"Well, I understand." Qiao Minglang understood this truth.

However, the knowledge he has learned now has greatly surpassed his previous accumulation and cognition.He himself realized that the way he used to do business was far behind the progress of this era.

But it doesn't mean that his previous way of doing business is completely useless.It's just that he can learn new knowledge and theories about this era on the basis of the past, so as to do their business better.

This trip to his uncle's place, he felt that he did not gain anything, at least he learned a lot from his uncle's place that he couldn't learn in their high school textbooks.For him now, this is what can really help him.

Until the afternoon of this day, Chen Feng came back from the outside and told them that he had made an appointment with a friend he knew, and they could go to their factory for a walk.

Before they returned to Jiangcheng, Chen Feng took them to a food factory of a friend of his.In that factory, Qiao Minglang saw some new types of machines, and for the first time realized the gap between the manual age and the industrial age.

If they want to set up a factory in the future, they will have to buy these machines and go back.

But it's too early to talk about it now, the establishment of a factory can't be done in a day or two, and after returning home, he has to discuss this matter with several of his cousins.

They booked tickets to go back on the [-]th, and on the [-]th, they were leaving.

On this day, Chen Feng deliberately spared some time, and personally drove the two boys to the train station for a ride.

Seeing that his nephew had only been here for a few days and was about to leave, Zhang Huaiyuan felt very reluctant. He reached out and patted his nephew on the shoulder, and said, "This time, my uncle has never taken you anywhere to play. Wait a minute. Come here when you have time, uncle will definitely take you to have a good time."

This time of the year is really too busy, and they have a lot of orders at this time of the year, so they have more work recently, and they have more things to do.

The factory opened by the two of them, Chen Feng runs outside all day, and he needs someone to watch over the factory, so he can only stay in the factory, so he wants to take two days out to take his nephew out to play. Can't find time.

Zhang Huaiyuan felt very sorry for this.

"It's okay, we're not here to play, and I need my uncle to take me with him. I'll look for my uncle next time I have a chance." During the few days here, Qiao Minglang fully felt the relationship between his uncle and uncle. The two of Chen Feng were busy, and the two of them were so busy working on a factory.

"Well, okay. If you want to set up a factory, don't be in a hurry. First, you have to understand the situation first. There is a specific plan and regulations, and you will do it when the time comes. If you don't understand anything by then, you can call It’s okay to ask my uncle. At the stage of high school, you still have to put your studies first, and you will have opportunities to make money in the future.” Zhang Huaiyuan has not forgotten that this little nephew is still in high school, and he is afraid that he will give up studying in order to make money. The gain outweighs the loss.

Money can be earned at any time, but if you miss the stage of learning knowledge now, if you want to go back to study in the future, you may not have the time and thought.People still have to learn more things when they are young. In the future, this knowledge will be the capital for you to gain a foothold and survive in society.

"No, don't worry, brother-in-law." Qiao Minglang knew his brother-in-law's worry and promised.

"Well, that's good. And your family, if there is anything, just call my uncle." His elder sister and brother-in-law left early, leaving behind a group of half-grown children.

Zhang Huaiyuan feels sorry for this nephew who lost his parents at such a young age. He has the burden of the whole family on his shoulders, and there are still so many younger brothers and sisters to support.His brother-in-law was away, and he didn't go home several times throughout the year. He didn't know about his elder sister's departure until later. By the time he rushed back, his elder sister's body had already been buried.

For these nephews, he didn't seem to have done anything for them except to help them with money.

"Okay, I see. When I get back, I'll call you uncle tomorrow morning." Hearing the sound of the train whistle and knowing that they were about to get on the train, Qiao Minglang told his uncle that he was leaving.

Looking at the man behind his uncle, he nodded to him.

"Going back smoothly." Chen Feng handed over the things he was carrying, and said, "I'll give you food on the way, and take it with you in the car."

"Okay, thank you." Qiao Minglang took it, waved to his uncle and Chen Feng, and followed his little cousin to the train.

Qiao Mingyong waved to the two uncles below, and shouted: "Goodbye, uncle, goodbye, brother Feng, let's go."

"Remember to call my uncle when you go back, and go back smoothly."

Zhang Huaiyuan waved to the two children.

They watched the train set off and gradually go away until it was finally out of sight.

Seeing that the young man was still looking at the direction of the train leaving, Chen Feng put his hand on the young man's shoulder and said, "Let's go back. When Xiao Lang is on vacation next time, we can let him come over to play with us."

"I see that child is busier than us." Zhang Huaiyuan thought that his nephew, who was busy studying and making money at the same time, was busier than the two of them.

"There is always time." Chen Feng said.

There were many people coming and going on the platform, many of them were sending their relatives and friends to take the train. When the train left, Zhang Huaiyuan and Chen Feng also went back.

***

When they returned to Jiangcheng, the school still had two or three days to start. Qiao Minglang helped out in the store every day.At this time, the school was still on vacation, and the dormitory they lived in was locked. The house rented by the cousins ​​lived in many people, and he had no place to sleep in the past, so he simply went back to live in Zhou Xing's house.

He has the key to the house over there, which Zhou Xing gave him last time.But even without the key, he knew where the man had put the key.

Since they had a quarrel that day and the man slammed the door and left, the two haven't seen each other again.Qiao Minglang knew that Zhou Xing should have gone to his aunt's place, and it might be a few days before he came back to school.

This is also the first time the two of them have had a dispute since they knew each other. If the two of them could discuss it in advance, this situation might not have happened. He also reflected on himself in his heart.

But he knew that if it was all over again, he might still stick to his own thing.

This time he went to a southern city, saw a lot of things, and learned some new things.In fact, one really needs to go out to know the difference in the outside world. Qiao Minglang feels that his understanding of this world is still too small.If he has the opportunity in the future, he hopes to visit more places.

After returning, Qiao Minglang mentioned the factory over there with his hall brother, and also briefly mentioned his own way of setting up a factory.If they can set up a factory, their production speed can be improved, sales channels can be expanded, and the money they can earn will definitely be more than they are now.

"Well, what you said is not bad. Like before the Chinese New Year, the things we made couldn't catch up with the sales. If we can make more meatballs, we will definitely be able to sell better." Qiao Mingshan On the contrary, he quite agrees with his cousin about setting up a factory. He thought that their business was so good before the Chinese New Year. Even though someone sent money over, they still couldn't earn other people's money.

He himself didn't think so far, and felt that they were opening two stores now, and their income was good every day. After a month, the money they could make from the two stores was already considerable.

The money he can earn in a month is something he never dared to think about before, so Qiao Mingshan is quite satisfied with the current situation.

But hearing the idea of ​​my cousin wanting to set up a factory, if the factory can be set up, they will definitely be able to earn more money, which is completely different from opening a few small shops.Qiao Mingshan felt that he was not as far-sighted as this cousin in this matter.

The two brothers talked about setting up a factory and had a preliminary idea.

Of course, if they want to set up a factory now, they will definitely not be able to spend so much money all at once. A lot of money will be invested in the initial stage of starting a factory. Now they have invested all their net worth, which may not be enough.

"Actually, if we have two stores now, we can sell a lot of things every day. If we can open a few more stores, we will need more goods every day. If we open the stores outside Jiangcheng, we will Go to more places... Think about it, the goods we can sell every day will be a huge amount."

The two talked about the sales of goods, and Qiao Mingshan felt that if they could open a few more stores, they would be able to absorb a large amount internally.

So he thinks they can set a goal now, in fact, they can still open a few more stores, so that they can reinvest the money they earn, and the money makes money, and they can make more money, instead of just sticking to two stores. Small shop like this.

It has to be said that under the leadership of the younger cousin, Brother Qiao's mind has also become more flexible.

"Well, yes, that's the reason." Qiao Minglang felt that his big brother's idea was right.

In this matter, the two brothers had a preliminary idea, a goal and a direction, and knew how to go forward.
