King of Industry

The pretty and fair Bai Rou is undoubtedly a beauty, and the tall, sunny and handsome Zhao Guoyang is also considered a handsome man.

This pair of handsome men and beautiful women went shopping together, which was naturally very eye-catching.

Zhongdan shopping mall was the largest shopping mall in Yangcheng in the early 1990s.

But in the memory of Zhao Guoyang's previous life, he didn't have a deep impression of him.

Because not long after, in 1996, with the establishment of the country's first modern shopping mall, Hetian Department Store, in Yangcheng, other shopping malls gradually disappeared into the dust of history.

Of course, in this era, this is still the largest and most elegant shopping mall in Yangcheng.

Walking on the uniform marble pavement of Zhongdan shopping mall, Zhao Guoyang sighed.

According to the memory in his mind, he has also visited the shopping malls in Ninghai City several times. It should be said that among the county-level cities below Guangling, Ninghai City's business development is the best, and there is also a "Little Songjiang" in the central Jiangnan area. reputation.

Around its most important commercial street, Wuyi Road, there are five or six large and small shopping malls such as Tianfu Shopping Center and Taishan Shopping Mall, which are quite prosperous in the county-level city.

However, these shopping malls in Ninghai City are nothing compared to the current Zhongdan shopping mall.

However, although this Zhongdan shopping mall is very lively, the various products in it are really low in the eyes of Zhao Guoyang, a freak with two lives.

The first floor of the Zhongdan shopping mall is electronic products, selling some video recorders, red and white machines, and the hottest thing in this period-color TVs.

Looking at the dazzling array of old-fashioned color TVs of various "island country" brands, Zhao Guoyang felt a sense of loss.

In the previous life, when he had an accident, it was already the seventeenth year after the beginning of the new century.

At that time, color TVs had been updated several times, and the mainstream TVs on the market were already blue-ray-proof curved LCD TVs.

Seeing this kind of outdated big-box color TV suddenly now, Zhao Guoyang is naturally a little uncomfortable.

Seeing Zhao Guoyang staring at the color TV, Bai Rou pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Brother Guoyang, you don't want to go home with a TV, do you? This is too stupid..."

After being ridiculed by the beauty, Zhao Guoyang scratched his head for a while: "No, it's just that I haven't seen so many brands in our small city, so I took a few more glances. Let's go upstairs and have a look."

The second floor is stationery products. Zhao Guoyang picked out two high-end pens and prepared to give them to his younger siblings when he went back.

When paying the bill, Bai Rou rushed to give the money, but Zhao Guoyang couldn't beat her, so he could only thank her repeatedly.

"This little thing, why are you so polite. Let's go, accompany my sister to go up to the third floor!" Bai Rou said with a smile.

The third floor is dedicated to women's products, including clothes, skirts, and accessories.

While the two were strolling around, Bai Rou joked: "Brother Guoyang, don't you plan to buy some gifts for your girlfriend? My sister can help you as an adviser!"

Zhao Guoyang waved his hands again and again, saying that he didn't have a girlfriend yet.

As soon as Bai Rou's eyes lit up, she smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't force you, and go shopping by yourself."

After shopping around for a while, Bai Rou picked out an exquisitely crafted butterfly hairpin for herself. After putting it on her head, she did not forget to ask Zhao Guoyang for his opinion.

Of course Zhao Guoyang kept saying it looked good. In fact, he wasn't exaggerating much. The gentle temperament of a white and soft southern woman is just suitable for this kind of headgear for a little woman.

When paying the bill, Zhao Guoyang was a little dumbfounded. He never thought that this small hair clip would cost eight yuan.

"It costs eight yuan for such a small thing?" Zhao Guoyang couldn't help asking when Bai Rou was paying.

"That's right, aren't hair clips all at this price?" Bai Rou thought for a while and said, "This is a regular shopping mall, and the quality of the items is guaranteed. Of course, you can also go to the small commodities in Baiwu District Buy it in the market. The price there is much lower, and you can buy it for one or two yuan. But the quality is just..."

Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang felt a wave of ups and downs in his heart. He had taken a closer look at this hair clip just now, and the material used for its main body was only ordinary spring steel S50C, and the price was not high.

In addition, the butterfly on the outside of this hairpin is hollowed out. Although the workmanship is exquisite, it is just a matter of opening a mold. From a practical point of view, the difficulty is not great. Based on Zhao Guoyang's understanding of mold development, it is estimated that it will take less than half an hour to design such a mold diagram.

According to Zhao Guoyang's speculation, to make such a gadget, even with the addition of a mold fee of one or two hundred yuan, it is impossible to check the cost of each piece to exceed 50 cents.

But now, this thing can be sold at such a high price as eight or nine yuan. The huge profit in this made him dumbfounded.

After rebirth, Zhao Guoyang, who had been thinking about his first pot of gold, discovered for the first time that making money was not as difficult as imagined...

...

In the evening, Zhao Guoyang dragged his exhausted body back to Siyang Group.

Originally, Bai Rou wanted to invite him to have dinner with him, but Zhao Guoyang refused on the grounds of work.

It's not that he doesn't like Bai Rou's type, it's just that the time we've known each other is too short, and we haven't reached that point yet.

Before leaving, Bai Rou gave Zhao Guoyang her phone number and told him to visit her food factory when she was free. Zhao Guoyang readily accepted this request.

However, he also told Bai Rou that it might be too late this time. At least I have to wait until the next time I come to Yangcheng for a business trip.

Since the cooperation with Siyang Group has been further expanded, and because the production of new frames such as underbone vehicles requires timely communication between the two technicians, Zhao Guoyang secretly estimated that he will come to Siyang Group more often in the future.

So I promised Bai Rou to go to her food factory to take a look next time, so I didn't have any burden on my heart, worrying that I would renege on my promise.

"Guoyang, you are back!" Ma Jian's voice sounded just as Zhao Guoyang entered the room.

Seeing that most of the drunkenness on Director Ma's face had disappeared, Zhao Guoyang said with a smile: "Director Ma, you are really huge. You have been drinking for so long at noon, and you woke up so quickly? Amazing!"

After being praised by Zhao Guoyang, Ma Jian felt a little proud. He waved his hands pretending to be indifferent: "Hey, I'm old. If I were ten years younger, the three of them from the Siyang Group at noon would not be able to stop me!"

Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but smile when he saw Factory Manager Ma's bravery.

"By the way, Guoyang, how is your shopping in the afternoon?" Ma Jian asked with concern.

"It's nothing, I just wandered around and bought a pen for my brother and sister." Zhao Guoyang replied.

Ma Jian nodded, patted Zhao Guoyang on the shoulder and said, "The invoice for the pen is here. I'll tell Director Mu later, and I will report it to you as part of the public relations fee."

"Huh? Public relations expenses?" Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang was confused for a while.
