My Courtyard Refuge

Calm down

Xu’s father was scolded by his wife, and he was depressed until he went to work.

“Morning, Uncle Ming!” Ma Jun saw the boss coming, and greeted casually.

Dad Xu doesn’t like being called “Uncle Xu” because it’s a clumsy tongue, but “Uncle Ming” is different, it sounds very imposing.

Ma Jun was recruited by Xu Dong. He is 25 years old this year and used to be a mine worker.Workers, don’t get me wrong, what they mine is virtual currency.

I also blame Ma Jun himself for being greedy. While mining, he actually got into the bad habit of speculating in coins. As a result, the market was not good last year, and his position was directly liquidated.

He himself owed a foreign debt of 250,000 yuan because of this, and now he has to work part-time at Xu’s father to pay off the debt, and currently he lives and eats in the store.

“Morning! Have you tidied up the machines you received yesterday? How much can be repaired?” Father Xu put down his water glass and asked with a straight face.

Although Ma Jun’s work attitude is not very correct, his technical strength is outstanding. He knows the performance and parameters of various electronic products well, and he also has good maintenance skills.

Therefore, Dad Xu offered Ma Jun a flexible salary, a basic salary of 5,000 yuan plus a profit commission of 10 points, which was equivalent to Ma Jun indirectly owning 10% of the company’s shares.

Don’t ask Dad Xu why he understands this, he just copied a classic case from a certain master. Ever since he watched these short videos on success learning, he has been deeply inspired.

“There are fifty-five units in total, forty-three mobile phones, fifteen notebooks, and two tablets. The rest can only be disassembled for parts.” Ma Jun quickly replied.

Dad Xu nodded, and finally a smile appeared on his face. These are all profits!

“Okay, Xiao Ma, you continue to repair the machine today, and try to repair a few more. Boss Yao is pressing hard, and leave all the chores in the store to me.”

Boss Yao is the big boss of a certain computer city. Some time ago, all electronic products were sold out, but the production speed of the manufacturer could not be restored for a while.

This guy changed his mind and started selling second-hand goods directly, which turned out to be a hot seller as well.

Most of the machines repaired by Dad Xu will be sent to him, after all, they give the highest price.

Ma Jun rubbed his sore eyes, and couldn’t help complaining: “Uncle Ming, I only slept for five hours last night, and I alone can’t repair many machines even if I die! ”

“You mean recruiting?”

“That’s right, the business is so good now, why not recruit more people?” Ma Jun expressed his incomprehension.

Father Xu thought for a while, and asked Ma Jun a very realistic question:

“The business is good now, but can you guarantee that it will always be like this? When the business is in a downturn in the future, can we support so many employees?”

This is not a problem for Ma Jun. In order to pay off the debt as soon as possible, he also racked his brains.

“It’s simple. Let’s lower the basic salary and try to give a higher commission. When the business is not good, those new employees will not make any money, and they will leave without us rushing.”

“Can you recruit people with this condition?”

Father Xu admitted that his heart was moved. It turned out that there was still such a showy operation. It seemed that he had to continue charging.

“It’s definitely possible. Now there are closed companies everywhere, and no one will apply for the job.”

“There shouldn’t be many people with maintenance experience, right?” Father Xu is not without knowledge.

Ma Junman said indifferently:

“It’s not possible to learn, let’s start with the simple ones, and it will take about a year or so to learn. In fact, many machines are just minor problems, and it’s OK to replace the parts, no need for advanced technology.”

Dad Xu was still considering the feasibility, Ma Jun continued to persuade:

“Also, we can hand over simple techniques such as flashing, dismantling, and screen replacement to those newcomers. I will only be responsible for those technical problems in the future, so that dozens of machines can be repaired every day.”

As soon as these words came out, Dad Xu was completely convinced that there is nothing more touching than profits.

“Okay, after a while, you can post a job posting on the Internet and ask them to come to the store for an interview.”

Ma Jun clenched his fist tightly, and finally achieved his goal.

…

Three days later, on March 28, the panic-buying wave that lasted for a week was finally pressed by the official emergency brake and gradually subsided.

Although I don’t know what the official consideration is, it has been delayed for so long?

But Xu Dong speculates that there may be three main reasons:

One is to use the wave of panic buying to return a wave of blood to merchants and manufacturers, and reactivate Daxia, a huge and sophisticated world factory;

The second is that the government can take the opportunity to collect a large amount of taxes to make up for the huge financial burden caused by the reconstruction work;

In the end, there is a conspiracy theory, which is purely Xu Dong’s personal speculation.

The rush to buy can create the illusion of a shortage of domestic materials in Daxia, so that Daxia can openly increase imports and reduce exports, and make reserves for future “natural disasters”.

From the clues, Xu Dong vaguely felt that the authorities had prepared the worst plan, but what no one expected was that this worst “plan” was far from the worst.

So much so that in the next few years, countries all over the world will be caught off guard.

On March 29, perhaps in order to alleviate the restlessness and anxiety caused by the panic buying, the Yanjing Winter Olympics, which had been interrupted for more than two months, resumed.

It’s just that the next competition events were all moved indoors, because the outdoor temperature has exceeded 35 degrees, and summer seems to have arrived ahead of schedule.

On April 5th, the current Winter Olympics was officially declared over, and Daxia finally ranked third in the medal table with 10 golds, 5 silvers and 5 bronzes.

winterImmediately after the end of the Olympic Games, the government immediately launched a massive conservation campaign across the country, calling on the whole people to “practice economy and oppose waste”.

In the courtyard, Xu Dong was helping his wife grow vegetables, while Xu Ma and Wang Xiujuan, who came to visit, chatted about homework and occasionally helped pass a water bottle.

Wang Xiujuan brought her grandson here this time. The little guy is five years old this year, with a fat face and looks very cute.

Today happened to be the weekend, and they didn’t have to go to school. The Keke sisters took the triplets and this little guest to play games together, and the yard was full of their laughter.

After chatting about homework, Wang Xiujuan couldn’t wait to share her latest news:

“Old Zhang, do you know? From next month, the prices of water, electricity and natural gas will all increase here. It is said that the price increases are quite severe.”

“Really, where did you hear that?”

Mama Xu frowned unconsciously, and her face became heavy. Even if she lived in a mansion worth 100 million yuan, she couldn’t change her petty bourgeois mentality.

Small townspeople are most sensitive to prices of water and electricity.

“My son said, don’t reveal it. Isn’t there a conservation campaign recently? The price increase of water and electricity is to cooperate with this campaign. Think about it, the price has gone up, and everyone is reluctant to waste it?”

Xu Ma was puzzled: “Then you have to use what should be used. Does it have anything to do with saving half a dime?”

“I don’t know about this, anyway, the price increase is 100% certain.”

“Oh, it’s getting harder and harder.”

Mama Xu sighed, the previous rush to buy has already exhausted the family, and the money is almost spent, why is she feeling more and more uneasy?
