My 1991.

Chapter 195, transition, new business opportunities
I remember that I had seen such a skit in my previous life, called "Encouragement", which seemed to be performed by Huang Hong, and there was a passage in the middle that impressed him deeply.

Or let their generation remember it.

"The director of the factory thinks highly of me, saying that the unit will reduce staff and merge the factory. At that time, I expressed my position. If I don't get laid off, whoever will be laid off!"

It is said that seeing this skit at the time, some people were so angry that they smashed the TV set.

The times are torrential. From the perspective of long-term development, a series of economic policies in the 90s were correct, but it must also be said that layoffs are a major event in these years.

Laid-off families generally do not have high requirements. There is rice and oil at home, and a simple meal is enough to survive starvation.

As for the idea of ​​a little extravagance: if you can actually give some money, then don't say anything.

When Lu An took Ye Run through the vegetable market, he found that the former vacant space was crowded with stalls in the past few months, and the stalls were not selling rare goods, mostly vegetables, daily necessities, snacks, clothes and shoes. , Most of them have no organization and no one to manage them.

Individually, you can also see Erdao dealers selling electronic watches, calculators, game consoles and tapes.

Ye Run is a person with a stubborn mouth and a kind heart. He couldn't help but ask him in a low voice after watching it all the way: "Do you think they can support their families?"

Lu An told her that as long as the mouth is not too stupid and the attitude is not too sloppy, it is basically not a problem to set up a stall to support the family these days, and even some bigwigs of later generations have accumulated the first initial capital by setting up a stall, and they will become bigger and bigger later. powerful.

Thinking of this, thinking of some news that later generations often see, such as self-made, who did not graduate from elementary school and seized the opportunity to become a big boss, and so on.
He had to sigh: It is not so much that they seized the opportunity, it is better to say that the opportunity seized them.

Lu An felt that among these strong men, a large part of them started out with ordinary backgrounds like the general public, and they didn't have so-called super talents. They just had a strong will and a lot of luck, and they slowly worked their way out.

Because he subscribed to the 5-point newspaper, Ye Run now passively falls in love with reading newspapers. Every time she sees news about layoffs in the newspapers, she is full of worries. She pulls Lu Anyi's hem: "Do you think the school teachers will be laid off?" ?”

Lu An turned his head: "You are worried that Aunt Hu will be laid off."

"Ah."

Lu An comforted: "Then there is no need to worry. Teachers are in short supply in any era, and the society is in urgent need of talents. This kind of thing will not happen."

Although Ye Run loves to argue with him, he is still very convinced of him in many things. Hearing this, he feels relieved immediately.

"I'm going to call my mom later."

"I don't think we should wait for the meeting, let's do it now, we may drink later."

Ye Run obeyed his advice, turned around and went to a public phone booth not far away.

Lu An didn't wait, and also went to make a call.

The first phone call was subconsciously to Meng Qingchi, but before he could say a few words, someone next to him was yelling ouch, urging the doctor to hurry up, it hurts so much, let him have a look first.

"Xiao An, I have time to wait. My sister will call you."

Missing his calls several times, Meng Qingchi felt a little guilty.

Of course, she also understands that if she really wants to contact Lu Ann, she can always make time.

The reason why I didn't take the initiative to call was because I was afraid that he would say some lovesickness, and then I didn't know how to reply, so I often just turned a blind eye to fool the matter.

After experiencing Lu An's tireless pursuit, she has also learned to be good. She doesn't care about him and Qing Shui now, and doesn't mention a word. She is worried that interference will cause Xiao An's rebellious psychology. Will push myself back.

I tried to call my eldest sister's tailor shop three times, but the line was busy. This is outrageous. Is the business so good?
After waiting outside for about ten minutes, after Ye Run came out of the cubicle, Lu An handed a 100 bill to the boss, "Pay together."

The boss is a sensible person, he just took one look at Ye Run and took the money.

When the two came to the small courtyard on the second floor, a big table was already set up in the courtyard, with big bowls of vegetables and meat on it, and a fire was lit with wood, and a circle of people gathered around the fire to brag and chat .

In addition to Zeng Ziqian and the 7 brothers and sisters who met for the first time, Li Dong was also waiting here early.

Seeing the two, Chu Jian got up and trotted over, "Brother, Sister Ye, you are finally here, if you don't come, we have to reheat the dishes."

Lu An nodded: "Something happened on the road, so it was delayed for a while."

Li Dong's legs and feet were completely fine. He hugged Lu An and said to Ye Run, "Why are you looking at me like this? Look at my goosebumps."

Ye Rundong looked around and looked around: "How much fat have you gained? Are you ten catties?"

Li Dong laughed awkwardly when he mentioned this, "My family Qianqian took good care of me, and I gained 12 catties."

Lu An was speechless: "This winter has just begun, you continue, and try to gain 12 catties."

Ye Run flattened his mouth: "It's okay to gain another 20 catties, now the meat is always valuable."

Li Dong originally wanted to swear, but when he saw Zeng Ziqian approaching, he immediately muttered, "I can't fight you two with one mouth, and I don't have the same knowledge as you."

After exchanging pleasantries with everyone, Lu An took Ye Run to sit down, and poured wine and tea for the two of them in a dog-leg manner.

Lu Ann asked, "Why is it all soju and no beer?"

Chu Jian said: "Brother, it's cold now. Everyone says that beer is not strong enough, but shochu is good enough. After drinking it, you will be warm enough to die. Brother, how about I go buy you beer?"

Lu An shook his head: "No, I'll make wine, but you can help Ye Run, Ziqian and your sister to buy some drinks, they can't drink such strong wine."

Unexpectedly, Li Dong said: "Hey, brother, you don't know that, they all like to drink and burn."

Before Li Dong could finish speaking, Zeng Ziqian had already stood up, "I'm going to buy some drinks, and I'll drink with Ye Run."

Lu An didn't stop him, this Li Dong is a simpleton, but his wife is a pervert, very clever.

Ye Run didn't want her to be alone, so he went with her. Seeing her younger sister for the first time, she went with her. After a while, she bought more than ten bottles of Coke, one bottle for each person.

In the past, he didn't drink much shochu. The main reason was that Lu An got drunk easily when he touched it. He didn't know what was going on. He felt that he was more likely to get drunk than liquor.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone became a chatterbox.

Wearing a black leather jacket and shiny leather shoes, the first-timer still couldn't help worrying, "Brother, when did you say I was tall? Look, I thought I had some money. I'm no longer a bum. It’s bright, but when I call Cuicui Village, her father always yells at her and refuses to contact us, and even threatens that even if Cuicui becomes an old girl and marries a lame and blind man, he will not look for relatives with me.”

Lu An was not surprised by this kind of thing, but asked, "What's Cui Cui's attitude?"

Crazy at the first sight: "She wanted to sneak to my side, but failed twice, and was caught by her three older brothers, who took her back."

Lu Ann turned the wine glass in his hand and asked, "Do you hate them?"

Chu Jian poured down a glass of shochu, "I have nothing to do, I have no ability to hate them, it's just that I don't care."

Lu An recognized his slight expression, and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. As long as you become a character, they will choose to forget the past, and they will praise you instead."

At first sight, he poked his neck and asked, "Then what counts as a horn?"

"Rich! There's a lot of money in your pocket!"

Lu An put down his wine glass, pointed to a family in the yard next door on the left, and said, "There is a house with a yard like this, and there is a car in and out, so it can barely be considered a person. When the car drives to Cuicui Village, there will be no troubles at all." gone."

Chujian stood up and looked at the next door, and dared not imagine: "Brother, you are so bluffing! I will never be able to do this for the rest of my life."

Lu An patted him, beckoned him to sit down, and looked around the crowd, "Do you believe me? If you believe me, follow me and work hard. This car and house are not dreams. If you can buy them in three to five years worthy."

I wanted to export some chicken soup for the soul and draw a big cake, but the cake was not finished yet, when I saw Chujian and the other 5 people excitedly raised their wine glasses to toast him, and said a lot of heroic words in their mouths, From now on, I vow to follow Brother Lu to work hard, and my brother said that if you go east, you will never go west.

Li Dong was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself, good guy, my brother has taken in a bunch of youngsters, with this group of people here, in the future, he can beat whoever he wants?No one dares to bully an acre of land in Jinling?
All of them are alcoholics, talking about brotherhood, drinking soju as water, after six rounds, Lu Ann drank four taels.

When he seized the time to leave, Zeng Ziqian and Chu Jian chased him out, "Boss, we found out that Jinling has a competitor."

Lu An stopped, frowned and asked, "Who? It's also from Master Kong's beef noodles? The manufacturer is so careless?"

Zeng Ziqian said, "No, it's Uni-President Instant Noodles. It is said that the big boss is also from Wanwan."

Seeing that he was silent, Chu Jian hurriedly asked for instructions: "Brother, as long as you send a word, I will take my brothers and copy them by hand."

Lu An kicked him: "What? You still want to fight in the street? Get into a game? Make your sister cry?"

When I first saw you, I patted my trouser legs, bent over and smiled flatteringly: "I've turned my back on my evil ways, and I don't use knives. It's just that they are blocking your way of making money. I can't swallow this."

Lu An waved his hand: "The market for instant noodles is huge. Whether it's us or our competitors, at best they're just small fish and shrimps in this big market. As long as you work hard, you can fill your stomach full, so there's no need to go to war."

I was a little unwilling to see it at first, but I still let out a heavy sigh and kept this in my heart.

Seeing that Zeng Ziqian hesitated to speak, Lu An asked, "Tell me, what else do you have to say together."

Zeng Ziqian said: "Boss, I have recently taken a fancy to a daily necessities for ordinary people, and it is estimated that there will be a great market."

Lu Ann was curious: "Tell me, what is it?"

Zeng Ziqian said: "Arowana edible oil, I read in the newspaper that it is looking for distributors. I think this is an opportunity. If it is managed well, its potential is not as good as Master Kong's beef noodles."

Hearing that it was the famous Arowana cooking oil, Lu An agreed to the idea almost instantly, and said, "Yes, I have vision, I also saw this news a while ago, but I was too busy to tell you in time, you and Let’s do it when you first meet, he has experience in this matter once, so I shouldn’t need to come forward.”

Chu Jian slapped his chest loudly: "Brother, don't worry, if you can't win the distribution rights of Arowana cooking oil, I'll chop off your head and use it as a urinal for you."

Hey, this person is good everywhere, he can bear hardships, but he is too accustomed to the world, Lu An said with a smile: "Let's keep your head, I believe you, otherwise Cui Cui will ask me for trouble."

Then he asked Zeng Ziqian: "How much money is in the account this month?"

Zeng Ziqian said: "Excluding all expenses and next month's budget, the boss can withdraw 7 at the end of the month."

Lu An nodded: "Yes, you have done a good job. Don't rush to give me the money. You can use it to represent Arowana. You have enough money."

Zeng Ziqian had this idea and immediately accepted it.

When he came to the road outside, Ye Run whispered: "Lu An, you are so powerful. When you first saw a gangster, you trained him to be a decent person, and even became your laying hen."

Lu An didn't think so and said: "Although I was a mess at the first meeting, my nature is not bad, and everything I did was just to survive and eat.

It is said that water flows to low places and people go to high places. Now I have shown him a bright road, and he is naturally willing to come out of the darkness and follow the light. "

When they came to the school gate, Lu Ann said to her: "I still have other events to attend, so I won't send you back. It's still dark now, so go back to the dormitory early."

Ye Run knew that the student union held a celebration party today, so he didn't say much, but only said: "You've already drank a lot, please put it away."

After Lu Ann watched her enter the school gate, he turned and crossed the road.

When he arrived at the student union, everyone was drinking high, and the college basketball team caught him and punished him with three cups for being late.

There is nothing to say, this is the rule, LuAnn drank three glasses of beer in one go.

These bastards are very good at playing, and they even started a fight over wine. They even mixed beer and white. When Lu Ann drank with them for the third round, he had a premonition that he might be drunk today.

Tang Min clinked a glass with him and asked, "They said you went to the drinking bureau, did you come here after drinking a lot?"

Lu An said with a smile: "We have to catch up later."

Zou Qiang was surprised: "So popular?"

Lu An knew that the two had misunderstood, "I have to go when my classmate's birthday is coming."

Lu Ke'er leaned over at this moment: "I think it's a female classmate?"

Lu An said: "It's a female classmate, but Liu Jiaquan's girlfriend."

Liu Jiaquan had already reported and left here. The three of them believed it. Lu Keer pulled him aside and whispered, "I need to discuss something with you."

LuAnn asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Keer said, "Do you want to be a singer?"

Lu An was surprised: "Do you have resource channels?"

Lu Ke'er thought that he was tempted, and immediately took pride in herself: "My aunt is in the music industry and has her own company in the capital. If you want to develop in this field, I can take you there."

Luan shook his head and turned to leave.

Lu Ke'er walked quickly and reached out to stop him, comforting him: "Lu An, with your external conditions and your musical talent, you can make a lot of money in the music world, maybe you are the Leslie Cheung of the Mainland."

Lu Ann felt strange: "Why do you want me to enter the music scene so much?"

Lu Ke'er said: "I don't want to see your talent go to waste."

Lu Ann didn't believe it: "What else?"

Seeing that he was not easy to fool around, Lu Ke'er said bluntly: "I'm interested in being a manager, I want to be your manager, and then I'll take care of all your external affairs, and you only need to be in charge of music creation. "

Lu An still shook his head: "I understand, senior sister, you want to use me as a cash cow, and the broker is not your end point, is it?"

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking to the ambitious senior sister, left the hotel, and rushed to Old Zhao Restaurant.

Zou Qiang came over and asked concerned: "You were still smiling a lot just now, why are you frowning now?"

Lu Keer took a deep breath: "I was rejected by him again, this is the third time."

Hearing this, Zou Qiang didn't know what to say, that distressed one.

Old Zhao Hotel.

It was exactly 7:20 when Luan arrived, a full 20 minutes later than the appointment.

He has been here several times, and it was at this restaurant that Chen Mai passed a note to himself saying that he did not bring any money.The Hunchbacked Boss is a good nosy guy.

The hunchbacked boss was very impressed with him, and he took the initiative to say hello: "You are here."

"Hey, good evening, boss."

If you don't reach out and don't hit the smiling person, Lu Ann's mouth will be sweet wherever he goes.

In fact, it's not just his mouth that is sweet, those confidante friends in his previous life said that he is also sweet, especially the place where there is ice cream is the sweetest, so sweet.

The hunchbacked boss pointed to the stairs on the second floor, "Your partner is in private room 201."

Lu Ann was a little confused, who is he?Do you mean Huang Ting, or Chen Mai?
Could it be Chen Mai?

But he didn't bother to ask and went straight to the second floor.

Laozhao Hotel is relatively large in scale. There are nine private rooms on both sides of the aisle on the second floor. It is already considered strong in these years. I heard that it was built by the boss himself.

The private room 201 is located near the road, so he directly ruled it out, and then searched one by one, and found that only 9 of the 3 private rooms were occupied.
