The leisurely life of rebirth

At this time, Mr. Lin and Qi Qiushi came in one after another, and the production and sales parties formally met.

Qi Qiushi said happily: "Then I'll leave it to Shouhou. When we go on a business trip to Shanghai, we'll look for you."

"No problem, I will sweep the couch to greet you and give you warm hospitality." Thin Monkey smiled and added: "But before that, you have to give me two installation workers."

Seeing that they didn't understand, Shouhou said, "Why don't you let me install it myself! I don't dare to touch this thing yet."

"Oh! Don't worry, I will ask you to bring the installation workers with you when you leave." Qi Qiushi said.[

Fang Monan saw that Skinny Monkey could think of this, which was already remarkable. "Skinny Monkey just thinking of this is not enough."

"Boss." Calling names seems disrespectful. Shouhou and the others can't say it. Liang Zi is the eldest brother, so Fang Monan becomes their 'boss'. "Isn't this just selling things? People see our Cheng Ping,

Just send the collection orders to various department stores and the problem will be solved. People will come rushing to buy goods for fear of being late."

Fang Monan shook his head and said: "Skinny Monkey asked you to go to Shanghai. You have traveled all over the world over the years, and your knowledge and vision are extraordinary, and you are bold and careful. If you think about it again, we want to do a long-term business, not just sell out and run away.

Those who buy and sell hammers are just traveling merchants and hawkers."

"What do you mean, how should I put it? I am a rough man. To put it bluntly, just like when we opened a store, we had a relationship with the police, gangsters and others, from the officials above us to the relationships with the surrounding stores, down to the customers.

Build a good relationship." Shouhou said.

"Hey! It kind of means that, but the words don't sound nice. I should say that I asked you to go to Shanghai to establish sales channels and provide good after-sales service."

"What I hope you can do is to form good personal relationships in the home appliance sales circle in Shanghai and establish a good corporate brand image of our company. When it comes to our company's products, they are of high quality and first-class service.

.We must also cultivate trust and loyalty to Zhongteng Industrial Company among consumers in Shanghai. All of these are not simply described by selling things." Fang Monan said plausibly, and they listened.

clouds and mountains covered with fog.

"Nan Nan is right to say that for a company to become bigger and stronger and last longer, it must have a good reputation, like a well-known company in the world, which does not have a history of decades or even hundreds of years. We must work hard in that direction.

Besides, will the current shortage of materials in China continue forever? That is impossible. Since we have taken this opportunity, we must make sure that even if there are more fan companies in the future, customers will stand up when they mention our fans.

Thumbs up. When the supply and demand relationship in the market reverses, at that time, what everyone will fight for is channels, which can be said to be connections and brands." Mr. Lin said earnestly.

"Shouhou said just now that he would take away the installer, which is great. Our ceiling fans have to be delivered to your door and installed by yourself," Fang Monan said.

"We have to do this installation service. If such a beautiful ceiling fan breaks down due to installation errors, it's not worth it. Are there other services?" Shouhou was puzzled.

"Of course," Fang Monan said: "First of all, what you have to do now is to provide good customer service. No matter which customer sells our products, you must have a good relationship with them. You must not be disrespectful.

No matter how in short supply our goods are, you must greet customers with a smile and remember their names, positions, contact numbers, and if necessary, their home addresses, social relations, and our potential customers.

Maybe they are among them. Say hello and say good-bye during festivals, but don't offend anyone. Who knows if there are noble people among them!"

"We also need to install a customer service phone line. If someone's ceiling fan has problems, they must come to the door for repair. There are also dedicated operators. Someone will answer the call 24 hours a day. If there is a problem with the ceiling fan, they will rush there as soon as possible."

Fang Monan continued.

"What if it's the middle of the night?" the fat man said deliberately.

"We have to go! We must do what we say. Besides, this is not a big deal. It is within our ability." Fang Monan said.

"So much! We have to do something." Thin Monkey thought there were so many things.

"Shouhou, you take Jinxiu with you too, just in time to help you," Fang Monan said. Hou Jinxiu, Shouhou's eldest sister, does a good job in the store, she is also smart, serious and responsible, so she just happens to be taken away as well.

Any questions?"

"Yes! Can I drink Brother Liangzi's wedding wine before leaving?" said Shouhou.

"Hey! Liang Zi is about to get married, why wasn't there any news beforehand?" Fang Monan stared at Liang Zi, making him blush.

"I originally wanted to do it, but who knew we would catch up with the crackdown, so it was too late." Liang Zi said sheepishly.

"Whose girl?" Mr. Lin also gossiped, everyone wants to take advantage of happy events.[

"This is really a bit like the story in the novel about a hero saving a beauty." The fat man knew the details and shouted: "This year, when my elder brother and I went to Yangcheng to purchase goods, the train stopped for half an hour. It was very boring, so we got off the train.

We were walking around in the square in front of the station. Unexpectedly, in the square, a few young men not only stole the girl's money, but also got excited about the money and dragged the girl into the alley. The two of us knocked her unconscious.

"The fat man was very excited about what he said there. They kept Fang Monan's words in mind, so they struck very quickly and hit the target with one blow. They didn't dare to delay, took the girl and ran. After taking her to a safe place, they left quickly. Until now, the fat man

I don't even know how that woman found this place.

Liang Zi couldn't see it and continued: "I thought it was just a bumpy road and a chance encounter. Unexpectedly, she came to find her a few days ago. My mother misunderstood and kept the wrong one. After getting along, I felt pretty good. As for the marriage, it was so difficult."

We've seen each other." In fact, the most important thing is that he didn't say that although those people didn't succeed, her clothes were torn. The worst thing was that someone recognized her, and the conservative people thought that she was not upright.

, which makes people covet her. The family couldn't stand people's criticism, and the neighbors also said that she was a female hooligan. She was almost not charged with being a hooligan, so the family kicked her out, thinking that she was ruining the family tradition, but who knew that she was almost a gangster?

I met those little hooligans, but thanks to his cleverness, I couldn't stay in my hometown anymore, so I found him after a lot of searching.

"Oh! I have to look after you when you get married." Fang Monan joked, "Aren't you too beautiful?"

"You also know that this period of time is not stable, so she didn't dare to come out." Liang Zi defended, he just hoped that his future partner would gain her approval.

"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Since you trust my vision so much, I'll help you take a look." Fang Monan said. "Don't blame me for being too picky!"

"Shouhou, go away with peace of mind. How about we wait for you to come back before getting married during the Chinese New Year? Don't delay the big event." Liang Zi said. "You will bring a daughter-in-law back anytime. You will not be looked down upon by our county."

"Hmph! Those crooked melons and cracked jujubes, when I was poor, looked at me with eyes that wished they could see the sky, but now I don't want those snobbish eyes." Thin Monkey said lightly, with a trace of disdain in his eyes.

Shouhou took his sister, four installers, and the county to recruit four employees, with food and accommodation included, and a monthly salary of 30 yuan. Just for these four places, many people fought over it. You know, this is where

Working in Shanghai is a place I couldn't even imagine, and I can reach the sky in one step.

Shouhou did not invite any of his relatives. Many of his relatives were dissatisfied and cursed at the door of Shouhou's house. However, Shouhou didn't care about this. When he was poor, no one helped him. His mother even went to the market to pick up rotten vegetable leaves.

He almost got caught as a thief. At that time, he swore that he didn't want these relatives.

After arriving in Shanghai, I rented an office space in an alley on the roadside of Huaihai. There was a small storefront in the front and a warehouse in the back. It totaled 500 to 600 square meters and the rent was only 450 yuan. Of course, it was more than 450 yuan.

For people at that time, the price was sky-high, but Fang Monan still felt that it was so cheap that it seemed like a free choice.

After learning about the rental price, Fang Monan asked Shouhou to look for a house for sale nearby. If he could buy it directly for tens of thousands of yuan and keep it for ten years, this property would be worth at least how much.

Ten million. A few months later, he actually found it. Fang Monan spent nearly 100,000 yuan to buy two properties, each with an area of ​​about 700 to 800 square meters. She was so happy that she could wake up laughing at night.

.

Shouhou tidied the office room very clean, hung up the sign, and installed the phone. It was established because it was already October, and the best sales season for fans had passed. The most important thing was that the production capacity was insufficient, and it must be continued

Only by ensuring export goods can they take their turn, so their main sales force is in hotels and cafes, which can be regarded as active advertising. With his sharp tongue, Shouhou convinces these places with a petty bourgeoisie atmosphere that they don’t need to enjoy the cold weather and play games.

Turning on the lights and dimming the light can also increase the taste and quality. It seems that if they don't sell his products, the quality cannot keep up and they lag far behind.

Slim Monkey didn’t advertise, and economically conscious dealers were like cats smelling fish, and they naturally ‘took the bait’.

Orders came in like a snowflake, and Qi Qiushi was very happy, oops! It seems that another production line is needed. Fortunately, it is winter, the off-season, and manpower will be organized immediately. Fortunately, the county machinery factory is large enough for them to work hard. Assembly workers

We also recruit people directly, which do not require much technical content and can be employed after training.

Qi Qiushi was very busy and the factory was on the right track. After Mr. Lin taught his apprentices, he went back to live a leisurely life. Fang Monan and the others were still the same as before, studying when they should study and practicing when they should practice. Leonard said

I have more time to discuss profound Chinese studies with the old man.

Dad's road construction is coming to an end, and he finally completed all the main roads leading to the village before the temperature dropped and started to freeze. He lived and ate at the construction site and paid close attention to the quality of the project. Dad was also praised. For this reason, a large number of cars will be built in the future.

When the influx of people comes, the road can withstand the test. When the road is opened to traffic, the county holds a grand opening ceremony, and trucks carrying agricultural and sideline products come and go in the village to speed up the circulation. This is a quick road to wealth.

******************************

The days passed by quietly like running water, and in the blink of an eye it was late winter again. On Christmas Eve, Cheng Shigui and Han Zhiqian drove over again. They couldn't live in the house anymore, so this time Fang Monan went to live on the farm with them.

The place here is large, and after the renovation, it is even more convenient than at home. Of course, the most important thing is that there are fewer people here, so there will be no trouble.

"Is the road still safe?" Fang Monan asked. Car bandits and road bullies were rampant everywhere. It was not uncommon for young people from several industries to stay in their hometowns and fight, steal, kill, and steal goods.

"It's okay, who dares to commit a crime against the wind?" Han Zhiqian said, Matthew has been abroad and doesn't understand, but he has a deep understanding.

"The Japanese stock market is rising well, so we need to invest more," Cheng Shigui said. In the process of entering the Japanese stock market this time, the Cheng family from Hong Kong took the lead.

"Before July next year, funds will be gradually withdrawn." Fang Monan said.[

"Oh! The funds were transferred to the United States." Cheng Shigui confirmed. After withdrawing from Italy, except for taking part to Austria, he took the funds to Japan for investment. After things went smoothly, he went to the United States to conduct a series of observations.

"Yeah!" Fang Monan nodded.

"By the way, Nannan, we found the materials you need to build the building." Cheng Shigui said. "Where do you plan to build the hotel?"

"Why do you want to realize it?" Fang Monan said, originally she was just painting for fun.

"Of course we have to build such a good building, why not!" Han Zhiqian said. "With the current speed of opening up in the country, the hotel market has good prospects. I think we should build it in the Special Economic Zone! That is the forefront of reform."

"We're waiting, the funds are still a bit tight. It won't be too late to wait until May when the funds for the ceiling fans are withdrawn." Fang Monan thought for a while and said, "We still need to find experts for the specific design. What I have is just a sketch."

"When I was in the United States, I found the most famous architectural firm, and they were very interested." Cheng Shigui said. "Who will manage this hotel? We are very busy and can't spare any time." He suggested: "What about Liang Zi?

, you are using your talents to overkill."

"Haha... I was just thinking about letting him go out and have a little adventure, and you happened to point him to a place." Fang Monan said with a smile. "Speaking of which, Liang Zi is going to get married before the Lunar New Year.

"It's a pity that we can't attend his wedding, but we brought gifts." Han Zhiqian said with a smile, "I didn't expect that he would be the first among us to get married."

"Is the bride beautiful?" Han Zhiqian asked curiously.

"Not bad." Fang Monan said simply.

"When will they come back?" Cheng Shigui asked. Before he finished speaking, Liang Zi and Fatty came in.

They both said hello to each other, sat on the kang, warmed up, and talked about each other's affairs.

"Congratulations, Liang Zi. I can't come to your wedding, so the gift will be great." Han Zhiqian handed the gift to him.

The gift from Han Zhiqian was a waste of time, two sets of clothes, a suit for the man, a festive woolen coat and leather shoes for the woman. Plus two jade concentric buttons.

"You're asking for trouble." Fang Monan glanced at him and said with a smile, "Laokeng glass is the top grade among jadeite."

"Where did it come from?" Fang Monan asked curiously.

"Haha... I got it by gambling on stones. I didn't think I was lucky. I won when I was gambling on wool. It was a little small, so I can only make it into a gadget." Han Zhiqian said with a proud smile.

"Ah! You still have this ability." Fang Monan said.

"It's just fun. However, 'Nan Nan' knows his stuff and can recognize Laokeng Glass at a glance." Han Zhiqian said.

Liang Zi held them in the palm of his hand, as if he were holding a pool of green. The waves were flowing, which was really beautiful.

What Cheng Shigui handed over was a personalized couple watch.

Liang Zi opened the watch box. The male watch was noble, low-key and luxurious, while the female watch was graceful and delicate, small and exquisite. "This is too expensive." He was not the Wu Xia Amen of the past, so of course he recognized this watch.

"The wedding gift is non-refundable." Cheng Shigui said, "On the back of the watch are the initials of you and the bride. They are unique and unique."

"Vacheron Constantin." Fang Monan glanced at it and said, "My house has almost become a famous watch exhibition."

"Is it very famous?" the fat man asked puzzledly, but this watch is really beautiful.

"Founded in 1755, Vacheron Constantin is the oldest watch manufacturer in the world and one of the most famous watch factories in the world. It has inherited the essence of traditional Swiss watchmaking without interruption. It has also innovated many watchmaking technologies and is one of the world's most famous watchmakers.

The famous brand watch with the longest history and longest production only produces more than 20,000 pieces every year. The cross mark on its dial, like the Swiss national emblem, has become a symbol of taste, status and wealth. It is a top-notch watch." Han Zhiqian said.

"Mom! How much does this cost?" the fat man shouted, pointing at his watch.

"More than 20,000 US dollars." Cheng Shigui said casually. He learned from the phone that Liang Zi was getting married and this was just a gift.

Liang Zi put the watch back into the box and put it away carefully.

Cheng Shigui winked at Fang Monan, and Fang Monan nodded, "Liangzi, let me show you something." He handed the schematic diagram of the hotel to the two of them.

Liang Zi looked through it, raised his head, and looked at him in surprise.

"The sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the sea is wide enough for fish to jump. It's no longer suitable to stay here. Do you have the idea of ​​​​going out to have a try?" Cheng Shigui pointed his slender fingers on the Kang table.

Liang Zi looked at Fang Monan and then at him. Before he could speak, Fatty couldn't hold it in any longer, "You all should leave now! What should I do?"

"Pfft..." Han Zhiqian punched the fat man's chest, "Look at that bearish look of yours! Who said I'd abandon you? Liang Zi can't handle the hotel business alone."

"Phew! That's good!" the fat man said happily. The thin monkey went to Shanghai to make a living, which made him envious for a long time. He was also 'reprimanded' by Liang Zi, don't be too short-sighted and have no future. 'Haha...'

The boss really didn't forget them.

Liang Zidao: "What should we do if we all leave the store? If there is anything else, Nannan, who will run errands for you?"

Cheng Shigui nodded with satisfaction, looked at Fang Monan, and motioned for her to speak, "Let's go! Gray income from smuggled goods is not a long-term solution, and the country will not crack down. In the future, the store's main business will focus on clothing.

She paused and continued: "Han Zhiqian will deliver the goods, and I will receive the goods here. It is convenient and quick. You don't have to travel all over the country. Besides, the people at the county station are all old acquaintances, so just say a word."

"

"Yes! I usually bring them goods and treat them with small favors," the fat man said.

"Liang Zi still thinks that managing a hotel is easy." Han Zhiqian said excitedly.

"No, I'm just reluctant to leave. I learned more here in Nannan." Liang Ziqiang cheered up and said.

"Okay, gentlemen, don't be like those who are sad about spring and autumn, mother-in-law and mother-in-law. It's on paper, but I know that I have to do it." Fang Monan continued: "A good man has his ambitions in all directions, go out

Give it a try."

"There is a lot of knowledge in hotel management!" Han Zhiqian said. "Some have learned it, but Liang Zi still has no confidence."

"Don't provoke me, I understand." Liang Zi said, "Nannan, if you ask me to go, I will go."

"I'm optimistic about you. Before I leave, I will give you a small manual, which will help you and not make you blind." Fang Monan said, "By the way, if you don't know how, you can ask your wife Qiu Hongye.

.”

"Yeah!" Liang Zi nodded.

"You know! In fact, the secret of Jiang Ziya's success is two things: Jiang Ziya became Prime Minister and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces at the age of 81. He did two things in the first 80 years: study hard and exercise." Fang Monan said, this

Some time ago, Mr. Lin started a new class, and it was about Jiang Ziya.

"Haha... what you said is really funny." Cheng Shigui said with a smile, "But if you think about it carefully, Jiang Ziya, before he was 80 years old, was a pauper who made a living by fishing. He had no money, no house, and no

Che, who can't even marry a wife. He is simply a complete loser. Moreover, he is over eighty years old and can be buried half of his body. There is no hope in this life. Such a person, today, then

He simply committed suicide by hanging from a beam a long time ago and committed seppuku. However, things turned out for him. At the age of 80, he met King Wen of Zhou. From a pauper, he became the "prime minister" who is under one person and over ten thousand people. He commanded "

King Wu defeated Zhou and became the founding hero of the Western Zhou Dynasty. He was entrusted to Qi State and enjoyed glory and wealth from generation to generation."

"Jiang Ziya! It's that Jiang Taigong who took the bait when fishing for a wish, and is from the story of Fengshen, right?" After listening to Cheng Shigui's words, the fat man scratched his head and asked.

"Yes" Han Zhiqian said.

"Hehe, thanks to the stories Mr. Lin tells every night." Fatty said with a naive smile.

Regarding the two things mentioned by Fang Monan, Cheng Shigui said meaningfully: "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. The body is the capital of revolution."

"I understand, lifelong learning and lifelong struggle. Live until you are old and learn until you are old." Liang Zi said with insight, "I will also supervise the fat man."

"I want it too!" The fat man said with a grimace. He was most afraid of studying.

"Of course we share the hardships and share the blessings." Liang Zi rarely joked.

"Fool, I'm not asking you to endorse. Since we are Chinese, why don't we dig out our own wisdom for success. The Chinese nation has been a resourceful nation since ancient times. The wisdom of the whole world is placed in the heads of the Chinese people. The ancients left us

We have gained so much wisdom, we can go to our ancestors to learn from them and recharge our batteries. What do you think? The ancient emperors and generals are living textbooks on success. The knowledge and experience learned from them,

It can be said that the soil and water support the people, and you can learn and sell now. You don't have to pay tuition. Where can you find such a cheap deal?" Fang Monan said funnyly: "Just read a novel, it is better than reading those messy things.

Strong."

"Yeah!" The fat man nodded. He knew in his heart that this was for his own good. In order not to be left behind by them, I worked hard.

When Liang Zi left after the New Year, Fang Monan gave him a handwritten booklet, which included: hotel management, psychology, tourism, marketing, front room service and management, catering service and management, dishes and drinks, hotel English

,, hotel financial management, conference services and management, recreational services and management, ten elements of hotel management. Many of them are Fang Monan’s insights from staying in hotels in later generations, so I wrote them together, hoping to be useful to him.
