Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Chapter 688: The trajectory remains unchanged

I don’t know since when, the topics discussed at the wine table changed from death in ordinary life to asking about income, girlfriends, and talking about each other’s children’s academic performance and what awards they have received.

However, ever since Yang Dongxu was a child, he has been bringing cartloads of New Year's goods to his home and giving them to relatives and friends. This has been the case for more than ten years. Even if he does not come back for the New Year, he will send New Year's goods back. After that, few people talk about his presence at the wine table.

How is the income outside?

This year Zhou Ya came back with him to celebrate the New Year, although she didn't say anything. Zhou Ya didn't admit it, but this year she accompanied Yang Dongxu's relatives when visiting relatives during the New Year. All marriages were with other families in the countryside.

The only difference was that there was still a banquet, red envelopes given by relatives and friends, and the three gold coins bought by Yang's mother. Zhou Ya took them with her when she left.

So after eating and drinking at the wine table, the topic naturally shifted to when Yang Dongxu will have children. This question made Yang Dongxu very painful.

Is it because he doesn’t want children and doesn’t want to have a banquet? But having children is easy. Zhou Ya also wants to have children early. After all, she is not young anymore. But it is really not his decision to get married. If he

When he came back a year ago, he was willing to take care of things directly on New Year's Eve.

So when faced with such a problem, he could only giggle and respond vaguely. This made his parents very dissatisfied and always glared at him.

After drinking, everyone got down from the table. In the past, several old cousins ​​liked to sit down and play a few games at this time. The gambling was not big and they just killed the time. But this year, the two cousins ​​obviously had something to say.

"Xu Zi, what do you think about setting up a small factory in Jiaxing, or further south?" The second cousin pondered for a moment and asked.

Although Zhejiang Province has never had a first-tier city, even when Yang Dongxu was reborn in later generations, Hangzhou was still in the process of becoming a first-tier city.

However, the economic development of Zhejiang Province has always been at the forefront of the national team. Especially under the leadership of Huaxiu, the domestic garment industry has flourished in recent years and has been exported to foreign countries. It has led to a large number of small garment factories.

What He Xin is talking about is this kind of small factory. In layman's terms, it's sleeve sewing, or sweater sewing. In recent years, small factories like this have begun to pop up in Zhejiang Province like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Most small factories have twenty or thirty people, while some only have five or six people, and they take orders for outer sleeves from some large garment factories and work day and night. Many people in later generations say that now, no matter whether large factories or small factories, workers are

They were used as livestock, so there was a labor shortage in the south in later generations.

But you have to admit that this humble assembly line, which works two shifts a day, is supporting thousands of families at this time.

The only difference is that some people make money by doing this, and those with business minds use the money they make to open a small factory, or make other investments and gradually become bosses. Others use the money they make to improve things.

In life, I don’t have a business mind, and in the end I am still a worker.

If the former succeeds, the life of talking day and night becomes the history of his first pot of gold. The latter fails, so this kind of life becomes an arduous ordeal that cannot be looked back on. Different people have different perceptions of the results.

"Why do you think of doing this?" Yang Dongxu asked curiously.

After my eldest cousin got married, the family went out to construction sites together and made a lot of money. Now my eldest uncle is a medium-sized contractor.

Second cousin He Xin originally wanted to learn cooking. It was said that he was doing well in a hotel and was about to start a small restaurant of his own. Unexpectedly, two people suddenly asked me about the gag today.

"The two of us want to join forces to do some business. This is what Hexin's mother-in-law's family does in Jiaxing. Hexin stayed there for half a year last year. You know more about it because you went to college, so we want to ask for your opinion." Lili said.

This statement is obviously a bit like the fallacy that "college students should be good at everything". But it is a fallacy when it comes to others. But when it comes to Yang Dongxu, he really understands this. After all, he is the big boss of Huaxiu, the largest clothing factory in China.

"How do you think about how big and how many workers you plan to recruit when you start?" Yang Dongxu asked.

Yang Dongxu was not surprised that his second cousin's mother-in-law's family was doing this, because in later generations, his old mother-in-law's family was doing this. Although they did not make a big fortune, they made a small fortune. Not long after his second cousin got married, he also followed his wife's practice.

Made some money with this.

But in this life, two people have more choices, such as taking on projects at construction sites, opening a restaurant, or driving a car with my grandpa, or even going to the city to find a relaxing job, and my grandpa can arrange it for them.

So after his second cousin got married, he thought he wanted to learn cooking skills and prepare to open a restaurant. Unexpectedly, things went round and round and returned to the established track.

"I asked around and found out that it doesn't cost much to do this. Just 20,000 yuan per person for me and Li Li, and we can rent a factory and buy some sewing machines. We can take care of food and housing without paying wages in the early stage, and we can give some pocket money every month.

Then everything will be settled at the end of the year. This is what my mother-in-law's family does, so the initial capital of 40,000 yuan is enough." He Xin said.

In fact, it is not only small factories that do this, but now large factories also do this. Basically, food and accommodation are included, and then the monthly salary is calculated and some pocket money is given, and the salary is paid at the end of the year.

The advantage of this is that it reduces the financial pressure on the factory and the worker turnover rate is low, because if the workers resign, their wages will be gone. But there is also a disadvantage of this, that is, if the factory collapses, or the boss runs away due to some problem,

Then a year of hard work for a worker would be in vain, and he would not even have enough money to go home and buy clothes for his wife and children.

So slowly these rules and regulations began to be eliminated, because when workers began to have choices, they simply did not come to work in factories with such regulations.

However, the situation in small factories is different from that of large factories. Their workers are not open to the outside world.

Recruitment is done through contacts from your own village or nearby villages at the end of the year.

In fact, many of the workers contacted were minors in their fifteenth or sixteenth year, and the oldest ones were only around eighteen or nineteen years old. They had never gone out to work before, so their parents were worried when they went out. So when they met someone familiar, they asked their children to talk.

They feel reassured when they go out with someone they know well. At the same time, because they are people they know, they are not afraid that the boss will run away, so they still settle their wages in this way.

"When I was studying in college in Hangcheng, some of my classmates were from Jiaxing, and their families had some connections in Jiaxing. If you really want to do this, make it bigger and borrow some money from my dad. Let's get the space first.

Spread it out, and we will also receive business." Yang Dongxu said after thinking for a while.

Although he has not taken the initiative to give any advice to his relatives in the family for so many years, he supports whether his relatives work or do business. Before, he had thought about waiting for his elder cousin to complete the work on the construction site, and then he would pay for him to open a small business.

real estate company.

If the second cousin wanted to open a restaurant, he would ask the experienced manager from Yang Jiayan to help him, and he would also invest some money to help him open a bigger restaurant.

Now that the two of them want to join forces to start a socket factory, he is naturally willing to support it. However, because he is not married yet and is younger than the two of them, don't feel a little uncomfortable directly lending money to them, so he will be too old.

Dad brought it up.

"Why don't we try this first? I'm afraid it won't mess up when it's so big." He Xin was still a little worried.

It's not that he doesn't want to borrow money, he and Li Li both know that as long as they open their mouths, the wealthy third aunt's family will definitely lend them money to do business. After all, they have no bad records in the past few years, and they have always given the third aunt the impression that they are conscientious and upright.

, much more reliable than the uncle from my second aunt’s hometown.

"In this case, you can do business by yourself. In two days, you can go over and take a look at the storefront. Isn't my second cousin's mother-in-law over there? Ask his family to help with the inspection. You first need to clear the place of machinery and workers.

What should we do first? I’ll help you contact your classmates to see if we can get some business.”

"That's great. As long as there are orders, the factory can be up and running in an instant." He Xin looked happy. Although his little cousin was a few years younger than him, he had always been very reliable in his work and had never let them down.

While the three people were talking this, a Santana car entered the village and drove directly to Yang Dongxu's uncle Shengli's house. Thinking of what a few people on the street said about Sanhong in the morning, he couldn't help but frown.

"You guys sit down for a while, I'll go to my uncle's house to see what's going on."

"Okay, you go and do your work. We will do the sum total in a while. I am a little nervous doing this for the first time."

"Haha, if you think it works, then do it. Our family can still afford it with the money. My opinions may not always be right. After all, I have never been exposed to condoms. I have been doing this for half a year and I definitely know more than I do.

"Yang Dongxu responded with a smile, raised his legs and walked towards his uncle's house.

Because it is afternoon, the market has stopped and many stalls have begun to close their stalls. The streets that were crowded in the morning are now a bit empty, with only a few children who are still lingering around some small stalls.

The yard of my uncle's house was very lively when I saw him. He saw his uncle Shengli, who had a lot of drinks at noon and was blushing. He was patting Sanhong on the shoulder and calling him brother. Opposite the two people, stood a man who looked a little dark-skinned.

A swarthy man with a smiling face.

"I asked you, why are you so ungrateful? Why don't you give up some? Can you spare a piece of meat? It would be great if we all make money together. Why do you insist on taking it all for yourself?" said the blushing uncle with a thick neck, pointing at Shengli.

The man lectured with foam flying from his nose.

The man tried his best to keep a smile on his face, holding the cigarette in his hand and taking the initiative to light it for Shengli. Sanhong supported Shengli with one hand, fearing that he would be unable to stand, and looked at the man with a sneer, his expression seemed to say: "You are not

Are you awesome? Why are you pretending to be a grandson now?"

"Xu Zi is here, come..."

"You are everywhere. If you drink a few more glasses of horse urine, you will no longer be you. Why don't you go to heaven if you are so capable?" Seeing that Aunt Yang Dongxu hadn't finished saying hello, Grandpa Yang Dongxu walked in from the door angrily.
