National Tide 1980

A week after the sewing club opened, Ning Weimin happily ran back to No. 2 Courtyard of Shan'er Hutong.

This is because the clothing wholesale business is booming and operating normally.

Not only are the self-employed people on the streets back, but they continue to ask for goods from the aunts in the neighborhood committee.

The neighbor's network is also intact.

Cheap stock products are very popular in various units. Many people buy enough for themselves and buy for relatives and friends.

Many people even spontaneously made a "second batch" of more than a dozen or dozens of items.

So in just a few days, Aunt Bian and Luo Guangliang returned tens of thousands of yuan to Ning Weimin.

Of course this guy has to come and collect the money from selling clothes.

But more importantly, Ning Weimin also wanted to have a good talk with Luo Guangliang.

Because Luo Guangliang is his next step and the key to expanding his business empire.

So that night, while waiting for Kang Shude to get off work, Ning Weimin and Luo Guangliang, who was busy with dinner in the small kitchen after coming back from the bicycle, naturally started chatting.

"Guang Liang, is it easy to do tricycle riding now? Why do I feel like there are more and more tricycles waiting for me at the train station?"

"No, anyone who can get a tricycle dares to go there now. Retired workers, those who don't have a good job in the workplace, and unemployed young people waiting for street assignments all come in swarm. So now it's more difficult to grab a job. It was much worse in the past, especially at night, it was so chaotic.”

"Ah? Really? Really?"

Ning Weimin was stunned and opened his eyes wide.

He really didn't expect this situation.

He originally said this purely to attract others and pave the way for what he would say next.

How could I know that I got hit by mistake?

"That's right. I still remember that when I first started doing this three months ago, there was no competition or competition. I just let the passengers come and find them on their own. I could do a dozen or so jobs in a day. At most, even Counting all the people I meet along the way, I can do more than thirty jobs a day, and there is almost no time for leisure. It’s impossible to do this now. If you don’t take the initiative to greet business, you won’t be able to work with the guests at the train station. It was snatched away by someone else.”

However, Luo Guangliang did not doubt him. He thought Ning Weimin was really concerned about the situation at the train station.

So while using the kitchen knife to cut meat on the chopping board, he kept talking in detail.

"By the way, last Sunday afternoon, a foreigner who wanted to get addicted to rickshaws appeared at the train station. You won't believe it when I tell you. At that time, there were actually five cars surrounding the house, competing for business. As a result, this formation gave everyone The foreigners ran away in fright, and did not sit in anyone's car. The five cart pullers had a fight, and they fell out of harmony and became enemies."

"Why? It's not because this is a sweet job. Everyone knows that they have to grab it from themselves, and doing this job will take on other jobs several times."

"I'm also telling you, these five are almost all newcomers. Many of them don't have licenses, so they don't care, and they don't even care about the old man's face. To be honest, they don't care about working for a long time, they just Just to get a handful and leave.”

"For example, in the first two days, there was a boy who took an out-of-town guest from the train station to Yong'anli. He heard that the road was more than three miles away, so he took him for a drive in Dongdan. It actually lasted an hour and a half, and in the end he was hacked for ten That’s really a one-time deal. It turns out that this kind of thing does happen, but it’s really not that dark.”

"What's this called? It means only looking for money, and a rat droppings ruins the pot of porridge. As a result, someone filed a lawsuit, but those of us with licenses were unlucky. The big guy took the blame for him and was investigated by the superiors. After a long walk, I was also organized to study for a day..."

Don't tell me, this is depressing enough.

But it is the inevitable law of market development.

A place where money can be made, especially a place where money can be made quickly, is bound to attract all kinds of people.

If management cannot keep up, there will be chaos.

What's the mess?

If there is chaos, it must be cured. Once it is cured, it will be chaos again.

The cycle continues until the management system, management experience and personnel allocation gradually catch up, and the market situation will become stable.

This is a decades-long process, and it is the same for any market. It all goes from informal to formal.

Even Ning Weimin had no good solution.

"Hey, brother, your income has been reduced a lot because of this, right?"

Ning Weimin asked with concern.

But to his surprise, Luo Guangliang's face showed no signs of depression, but a proud smile.

"I'm actually okay. Thanks to you, the care of your colleagues at the Chongwenmen Hotel, and your work at the Zhai Palace, I don't have to get involved in such a vortex of right and wrong."

"It's just that a few brothers under me have been affected. As long as you are here, I can't share the work of Zhai Palace with them. Their income is much lower than before. But fortunately, in the past two days, I have also figured out The only way is to let the people under me divide the work and cooperate."

"I specially arranged for two people to stop pulling the train, and ran to the exit of the train station to wait. When the train arrived, I saw passengers from out of town who were inconvenient to carry their bags. They were the first to meet face-to-face with them to solicit business. The negotiation was completed. Just carry the big and small bags directly to our car, and in the end everyone pays a penny."

"If we do this, we don't have to fight with others in the square, and it's most efficient. The bus will be empty as soon as it's gone. Although it's a bit hard work, we earn less for each job. But the total amount is The more money we make, there will be enough for everyone to eat.”

I have to say that Luo Guangliang really used his brain.

Ning Weimin became even more sure that he had seen the right person.

Luo Guangliang is actually quite talented in business and is the most suitable partner for him right now.

"Guang Liang, your method is really good. You can take a step ahead of others without making a sound and gain an advantage. It's a bit like Sun Tzu's Art of War to win by surprise."

Ning Weimin praised him first and then asked him.

"Hey, how many brothers do you have by your side now?"

Luo Guangliang blurted out without thinking.

"There are about five or six people. But two of them don't come here often. They are all working people. They just do their spare time every night and Sunday."

"There are only three or four people who follow you every day, right? Do they all obey you?"

"Hey, we're close. In fact, it's hard to say whether I'm convinced or not. It's just a few poor guys hugging each other for warmth and trying to make a living together. I don't have any merits, so I mean what I say. I never lose money when it comes to sharing money."

"Oh, brother. You are really humble. There are not many people who can be like you. You are fair and have a big picture view. This is an excellent leader. Your brothers are lucky."

"Hey, don't say that. How can I compare with you? Only someone like you has real ability and is convincing. Don't say that the people in our courtyard are taking advantage of you. Even the streets are not good. Few people have benefited from you. In ancient times, you were as great a person as Mengchangjun."

It seems that these people are talking in a hurry, and they are already flattering each other.

For this reason, Ning Weimin and Luo Guangliang couldn't help but laugh in tacit understanding.

Later, Ning Weimin asked, "Are there any of your brothers who like to cause trouble?"

This question made Luo Guangliang hesitate for a moment, and his work stopped.
