Yanzi Valley of Jingcheng

Chapter 171

The subway station in Jingcheng District of Qingyang is the busiest. During the rush hour, queues begin at the subway entrance. On average, each person has to queue for at least half an hour before finally getting on the subway.

While waiting for the subway, these people use their mobile phones to watch videos or Weibo. The 996 work system is very normal for them. Most people don’t even bother to discuss it. Although they can get a high salary, most of the income in the queue will not exceed 40 yuan per year.

Worse than these people is people like Shen Li. She has to wash up and go out when the sky is still gray six days a week. No matter it is windy or rainy, she has to ride her electric motorcycle. Household breakfast.

In order to deliver more orders, Shen Li often trots all the way, and finally can only grab a bite of the cold pancake while waiting for the elevator.

After the breakfast delivery peak at 9:30 in the morning, Shen Li took the subway to Qingyang Clothing Wholesale Market, which took 50 minutes.

During these 50 minutes, Shen Li worked part-time as a copywriter on a self-media platform like Little Blue Book, and occasionally wrote about her official account.

10:30 in the morning happens to be the time for the wholesale market to open one after another. The directly-operated stores of each factory will give Shen Li and her team the clothes that will be displayed to physical wholesalers or online shop owners today. After nearly an hour of screening , Shen Li will stand on the high platform to show the selling points of each piece of clothing to the merchants.

If the speed of changing clothes can apply for the Guinness World Record, then maybe Shen Li can win the championship.

After two hours of high-intensity changing clothes as a model, Shen Li was basically too tired to talk or eat. When she got off the high platform, she often just wanted to squat down and drink water.

Shen Li usually lies on a stretcher in the store for 10 minutes, and then goes to a nearby construction site to buy boxed lunches, because the boxed lunches at the construction site are cheap and filling.

Shen Li usually buys box lunches at two or three o’clock in the afternoon. At that time, the small vendors selling box lunches are about to close their stalls. The remaining box lunches that have not been sold are all 7% off, so Shen Li can buy them for less than 10 yuan. Buy a box lunch with two meat and one vegetarian.

Sometimes the vendor owner would directly send Shen Li a few unsold dishes, which basically settled Shen Li's dinner.

On the subway on the way back, Shen Li was still using her mobile phone to do her various online part-time jobs. When she arrived at Yanzi Valley at about 4 pm, Shen Li happened to be able to put on her work clothes again, and started to prepare for the evening rush hour by riding an electric car.

For Shen Li, who delivers food for at least 8 hours a day, a place like Yanzi Valley is simply a paradise, because whether it is a new-style community or the surrounding farmer's houses one after another, the population density is very large, and restaurants and businesses are concentrated.

Delivering food in such a place, Shen Li can take many orders at one time and deliver to the same building, and the money earned per unit time increases, which is why she has been living in Yanzi Valley.

In the Jingcheng District of Qingyang, there are many people like Shen Li. They work hard every day, and they are very motivated to see the hundreds of hundreds of money in their collection accounts. Their biggest goal is to buy a 100-square-meter apartment in this city. big house.

They are willing to embrace the times, and whenever a new opportunity to make money comes up, they will be as excited as Shen Li.

"Wow! It turns out that you can still make money like this!"

"It turns out that as long as you have a mobile phone, you can make money by typing a few words!"

So they tried all kinds of things and used up all their time, but in the end they found that like Shen Li, what they got in return for their hard life was not fulfillment, but confusion.

"There is a problem with your income model." Xiao Jie said to Shen Li, "Whether it's food delivery work, online part-time jobs or changing clothes models, basically you are charged by the time and by the hour, which leads you to work less today than yesterday. Hours, your income will decrease, and with such an income model, you will most likely not dare to slack off for a day, and it may not seem like a big problem in the short term, but it will definitely overdraw your body in the long run.”

"That's right...that's how I am now!" Shen Li was very excited after hearing this, "I fainted last time and had to rest for three days... I lost a lot of money... Great God, what do you think I should do?"

"You should try to avoid earning an hourly salary." Xiao Jie said, "At least in China, the hourly salary in China is often lower than the monthly salary, and the monthly salary is often lower than the annual salary. Most of them are hourly workers, those who get a monthly salary are company white-collar workers, and those who get an annual salary are corporate executives.”

Shen Li blinked her eyes twice, "But... But God, I am a high school graduate, I can't join a big company like your Jinquan like Ren Tianxing, and I can only find a monthly salary in a small company with my diploma. Three or four thousand jobs, let alone a corporate executive like you..." Shen Li said, feeling aggrieved, "After all, think about it, what is your resume, what is my resume..."

Guan Sha thinks what Shen Li said is indeed the truth, Shen Li's current hardware conditions and age are all here, it is too difficult to find the high-paying job that Xiao Jie said.

"If it was in the past, it might be more difficult for you to solve this problem, but now the times are different." Xiao Jie showed a faint smile, "You once wrote very good results in the official account, which shows your level of copywriting Very good; you have been in contact with live broadcasts and worked as a model, which means that your camera sense is not bad, at least you know everything you need to know about video; listening to your past experience, you always like to explore some new opportunities, which means You like to explore and have a curious heart. These are very rare. You should find a way to make full use of all these advantages. This is the era of self-media. As long as you can continue to output high-quality content, if you do well Your income may exceed mine."

"Ah?" Shen Li opened her mouth wide.

"Right! Isn't short video very popular now? Sister Shen Li, you should participate and stop delivering food!" Guan Sha interjected, "I actually wanted to tell you since I first met you, I think delivering food is too hard Yes, and if you don’t give it away, you will have no money, and if you don’t have money, you will have no money, and you will get up early and be greedy for night, and you can’t even eat well. How good it is to make short videos! In fact, many of those short video big Vs are not good Graduated from school, and did not work in any big company, mainly because the content is good!"

"It doesn't have to be a short video." Xiao Jie said, "As long as the copywriting is good and there is content to talk about, it is better to synchronize multiple forms. For example, text, audio and video can be done at the same time, and you put the same content at the front. On several self-media platforms in the Ministry of Finance, you can enjoy the dividends of the development of various platforms, such as sending text to the WeChat official account, audio to Dragonfly and Himalaya, video to Douyin, Kuaishou and even "Aiyouteng", all using the same account. A name, updated synchronously, so that as many people as possible can pay attention to you, of course, the content you make must be unique.”

"If this succeeds, does it count as overtaking on a curve?" Guan Sha helped Shen Li and asked.

"Of course." Xiao Jie said and looked at Shen Li, "Actually, you want to buy a house, one is to live with your daughter, and the other is probably also for the education of the child. The future housing policy in the school district is relatively unclear, and the risk is very high, and with your current I’m afraid you can’t afford the housing in Qingyang’s school district, and I don’t recommend you go to a high position to take over the offer. Because of this, you have to fundamentally change your source of income. As long as your income increases substantially, the school district does not actually It doesn’t matter, private education, international schools and studying abroad are all good choices, the most important thing is that children cannot live without the company of their parents, this is a very important part of spiritual education, and no teacher can replace it.”

That day, three people ate a breakfast for three hours.

Shen Li almost burst into tears after listening to Xiao Jie's analysis. She didn't know who got Xiao Jie drunk last night, but she was very grateful to that person, because if Xiao Jie hadn't been drunk, he wouldn't have appeared in Yanzi Valley. I wouldn't have gotten this kind of "hit the nail on the head" advice this morning.

Xiao Jie said: "The money earned from being busy is often not enough to spend. Only the money earned from thinking, insight, and seizing opportunities and trends can make you achieve a class leap."

Xiao Jie said: "Set aside a certain amount of time to think every day, don't run out of time, too much effort will limit imagination."

Shen Li agrees with this too much. Her biggest contradiction is what she wants in her heart, which is not at the same level as her current actual earning ability.

Shen Li wants her daughter to live with her in Qingyang, but at the same time, she also wants her daughter to get a very high-quality living condition and educational resources. Either of these two goals requires a lot of money, and she, Shen Li, alone needs the money Working as an "hourly worker" is very difficult to earn.

Xiao Jie said that if it was someone else, he would not necessarily suggest the self-media path, because this path is actually very difficult and requires some talent, but Xiao Jie believes that Shen Li can meet these conditions, especially from Shen Li In him, Xiao Jie saw a person's underlying love for emerging business opportunities.

To do anything, with the underlying love, it is more likely to succeed.

"Now you can spend all your time delivering food and working part-time on the Internet to manage your own personal brand." Xiao Jie said, "Try bit by bit, invest slowly, and personal brand needs time to build and polish. , but every effort you put in, the Internet will remember, as long as the content is good, your personal brand will accumulate, it will become more and more valuable, and you can sell it repeatedly, breaking away from the constraints of time and space. Every piece of hard work you earn is not small money, but big money."
