Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 221 Goodbye Brother Zeng
After a few days of direct sales, I learned about the purchase price of all small household appliances, where to purchase them, what the approximate market price is, which brands are popular, and which brands sell best.I greeted sister Meiyan and decided to book a ticket back to Zhuhai.

Sister Meiyan was a little bit reluctant to part with me, and said, "You are a lucky boy. Once you come, my business will double as before. How about I give you some extra money so you can continue to work?"

I shook my head and said, "No, I still have my own work to do. Thank you Mei Yan for taking care of me for so many days."

Sister Mei Yan also said clearly: "I know that my small temple can't keep a great monk like you, so that sister can book tickets for you."

I hasten to thank you.

Early the next morning, it opened as usual and looked at the store.Unexpectedly, as soon as we went to the store, a group of people were waiting for us at the door.I was still thinking about why the business is so good today. Isn’t the induction cooker all sold out?

A big man with bandages on his hands took out a pitch-black induction cooker from a plastic bag, and said to me angrily, "Look, what kind of induction cooker are you selling? It has an explosive function? Plug it in." The electricity exploded within 5 minutes, and my hand was broken, this is the medical bill, you can figure it out yourself!"

A woman also held a shattered induction cooker and said, "My child is still in the hospital. We can't finish this matter. Hurry up and get the medical bill!"

Afterwards, this group of people all came to Xingshi to inquire about their crimes.Some directly raised their hands and started smashing the store crazily. I tried my best to stop it, but there were too many people, and I was beaten up. Sister Meiyan was pushed to the corner in the chaos, and her head A big mouth was opened, and blood flowed from the head to the face, which looked very scary.

It wasn't until someone called the police and the police came that the scene was brought under control.The anger of the crowd has not subsided, and they have been yelling and cursing.

Sister Meiyan covered her head and said in tears, "I will reimburse you for your medical expenses, but you can't smash my shop!"

I supported Sister Mei Yan, endured the pain in my body, pushed away the crowd, and walked to the hospital.There are still people who are worried, afraid that we will run away, and follow closely behind.

I shouted loudly: "Come on, follow along. I'm afraid that you will run away, intentionally hurt people and damage other people's property. If you don't come to us, we will come to you. Let's see if we will suffer."

The group of people discussed it and felt that the store was still there, and people couldn't run away, so they didn't keep up.

Go to the hospital, find a doctor to stop the bleeding and bandage for Sister Meiyan.The nurse checked the wound for me, and found that my skin was rough and my flesh was thick. I didn't suffer any injuries, but I looked a little embarrassed.

Sister Meiyan called her husband while bandaging her bandages, but she couldn't get through, so she was in a hurry.

I didn't care about the wound anymore, I got up and was about to leave, but there was a lot of bleeding, and as soon as I stood up, my feet were unsteady, and I almost fell down. Fortunately, I supported her by the side.

I said with concern: "Sister Meiyan, are you okay? You sit down first, tell me the address, and I will go find your husband."

Sister Meiyan gave me an address and told me, "You must find him and ask him to give an explanation."

I took a taxi to this address, it is a small workshop, the door is locked, and the high courtyard wall is daunting, it is impossible to climb up.

I turned around in a circle, but couldn't find the entrance, so I knocked on the door desperately, but it was quiet inside, and no one answered.

After knocking for a while, no one opened the door. I knew it was probably not there. At this time, an old man passing by said: "Don't knock, I saw this family use a big cart yesterday, and they moved everything away. .”

I called Sister Mei Yan and told her that there was no one in the factory. Sister Mei Yan gave me the address of her husband’s house, and I rushed there again, but there was still no one. I asked the neighbors that they also moved yesterday. gone.

Disappointed, I went back to the hospital and said to Sister Meiyan, "Your husband must have packed up his bags and ran away yesterday. Did he know there was something wrong with this batch?"

Sister Mei Yan said bitterly: "I knew he was not that kind, but I never thought that he would harm me so much. How can he be so cruel, he is so inhuman!"

I persuaded: "Sister Meiyan, it's useless to say this now, we have to pay, you go home and rest first, I will go to the store, clean up, see how much I lost, and then, tomorrow there will be statistics How many people have been victimized, and how much money will be paid in total?"

Sister Meiyan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

When I went to the store, the glass counters were smashed, glass shards were all over the floor, and leftover parts of small appliances were everywhere on the floor.I started to pick out undamaged appliances on the ground, put them in the corridor, and put the undamaged ones out, and then started to clean up the garbage.

The old Mrs. Wu on the opposite side came over. I thought she was going to make trouble, and I didn't even bother to look at her.

Who knew that she took a few flour bags and said to me: "Take this for garbage, wear gloves, it's all glass, don't scratch your hands."

I quickly picked it up and thanked him: "Thank you, you are really brave, what happened last time..."

Old Mrs. Wu said: "Our quarrels are quarrels. This girl is not bad. Our prices are always higher than theirs, but she has never told the customers who come to my store once, and she never robs me. Guest, I was too angry that day, and I knew it was my fault, but I didn’t want to admit my mistakes because of face, these people are too ruthless, lawless, smashing things in broad daylight, there is no law for them.”

After finishing speaking, I packed up with me, and I was moved for a while. At this time, the bosses of several nearby shops also came over to help, and they finished cleaning up in a short time. I thanked them one by one.Everyone said that they were all neighbors, and Sister Mei Yan usually helped them a lot.

I thought it would be over by paying a little money, but who knew that the Industrial and Commercial Bureau received a report and wanted to close our shop until the matter was thoroughly investigated before it could be reopened.

Looking at the seal posted, I was at a loss as to what to do. Originally, as long as I was still in business, I could quickly earn back the compensation. Now that I have no source of income, it is really difficult for Miss Meiyan.

Sister Mei Yan fell ill, and her whole body completely collapsed.Lying in bed in a daze every day.

I had no choice but to run by myself. I went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau first, and the investigation results came out quickly. The transformer in the induction cooker we sold was too small.The Industrial and Commercial Bureau ordered to revoke our business license.I was so hard-headed that the Industrial and Commercial Bureau only fined us, but did not revoke our business license.

But the fine is 20 yuan, plus the compensation for the injured, a total of 80 yuan, I have no idea now.

When I went back, I wanted to discuss it with Sister Mei Yan, but Sister Mei Yan looked like she was dying, which made me very angry.

I yelled loudly: "You are dead now, and no one sympathizes with you. Life has to go on, cheer up and solve the problem in front of you, and we can make a comeback."

Sister Meiyan looked at me blankly and said, "I'm going to live here for the rest of my life. I just thought I'd live a good life for two days..." After speaking, she began to cry again.

I was so annoyed by crying, I really wanted to leave her alone and leave, but I still couldn't bear it.

She said earnestly: "Sister Meiyan, listen to me, things are not as hopeless as you think. If you lose money, let's sell the goods in the warehouse, and then sell them a few times, and you will earn back in a year. For anyone who has never met Kaner, just step over it."

My advice didn't take effect, and Sister Mei Yan still couldn't pull herself together.I had no choice but to go to the store alone, repair it, and sell the goods in the warehouse little by little.

People come to collect the bill every day, and the little money I earn every day is distributed to those who pay the bill.When I went back, I had to cook for Sister Meiyan. I was exhausted every day. I wanted to go back to Zhuhai several times, but my heart softened when I saw Sister Meiyan.

A week has passed, and the person who came to ask for the account saw that I was very trustworthy, and the reminder was not so urgent. I thought it could be slowed down, but who knew that the reminder notice from the Industry and Commerce Bureau came down, and if I did not pay the fine, it would be sealed shop.Now, I really can't help it.

Squatting at the door, looking at the notice, smoking a cigarette with a sigh, the old Mrs. Wu saw that I was pitiful, so she gave me a box of lunch for me to eat.

With a cigarette in my mouth, I was squatting on the ground, and I was eating wolfishly with the boxed lunch. I just rolled my eyes because I ate so fast.

A bottle of water was handed to me. I thought it was old Mrs. Wu, but I said thank you without looking up.He opened the lid and took a big gulp.

A familiar voice that I haven't heard for a long time said: "I said I would come out, why didn't you come to pick me up? So you were worried that you would be ashamed to see me if you got mixed up like this? We are brothers, what can't you tell me? "

I raised my head and saw a bald head in the shape of Zeng Zhiwei, a man I am very familiar with, Brother Zeng.

Brother Zeng was a little excited, hugged me and said, "Let's go, brother, let's go home."

I was pulled up from the ground by Brother Zeng and asked, "Brother Zeng, when did you come out? How did you find this place?"

Brother Zeng replied: "I have been out for a week. I thought you would pick me up, but I didn't wait for you. I called you, but your phone was turned off all the time. Finally, I asked Team Zhang. Team Zhang asked your girlfriend. , you are in Yiwu Small Commodity City. I found it. After three days of searching, I was ready to go back. Finally, I asked a clothes seller and told me about your appearance. The boss told me about it. I didn't expect to find you."

I feel very guilty, I was so busy that I forgot about Brother Zeng's release from prison, first Yaoyang's marriage, and then a group meeting, I completely forgot about such a big event as Brother Zeng's release from prison.For a while, I didn't know how to explain to Brother Zeng.

The two found a small restaurant, drinking and chatting. Brother Zeng asked me: "Why did you mess up like this? Didn't you give the power of entrustment to you? I still have a few companies that have not been seized. Why don't you go?" what?"

I explained: "No, I'm fine, but this store is in trouble right now, by the way, please lend me 20 yuan first to let me get through this difficult time."

Brother Zeng waved his hand and said: "What do we brothers borrow or not, we will go to withdraw the money in a while."
