After the divorce, my wife and I were reborn

"where are you going?"

"go home!"

Jiang Xia followed quickly.

"Why are you following here? Your home is on the other side."

"Your home is my home, where my wife is."

"shameless!"

◇

The two bought vegetables and went home hand in hand. When they opened the door, they found that the mother-in-law and the father-in-law were both at home, and they didn't cook or watch TV. The atmosphere seemed a little depressing.

Jiang Xia looked at Lin Yanwan, his eyes flickering: "Why didn't you say that parents are at home?"

"I don't know either!" Lin Yanwan pouted.

She changed her shoes and walked into the house, pursed her lips and said, "Dad, Mom, why did you come back so early today?"

Seeing his daughter coming home, Lin Gaoyuan had a stiff smile on his face: "I want to take a rest today."

It is said that Jiang Xia's heart is like a bright mirror, probably because he can't get work and the factory can't start work. In this case, what else can he do if he doesn't close the door and go home to rest.

Lin Yanwan naturally understood the meaning behind her words, she put the vegetables she bought on the table, her tone was still the same as before.

"That's how it should be. If you're tired, take a good rest. Don't force yourself. How can you earn enough money?"

Lin Gaoyuan was silent. In fact, he really wanted to tell his daughter that during this period of time, he had searched almost all the relationships he could find, and almost borrowed the money that should be borrowed, but he still couldn't help the factory out of the predicament.

He also thought about transforming to do other things, such as making furniture, making molds, and changing the production line also requires a lot of money.

In this competition, Lin Gaoyuan was almost crushed to death, and now he can only hold on.

Ji Wanqiu sighed, unable to bear to let her daughter know about these bad things, got up and saw Jiang Xia at the door, and said, "Xiao Xia, you are here too, come in quickly."

"Hello, Aunt Ji." Jiang Xia said politely.

He changed his shoes and walked into the house, and also said hello to his father-in-law, but sat on the sofa beside him, a little restless.Little Taro was very happy to see him, got up from the cat bed, and rubbed against his feet back and forth.

"Yanwan, why are you wearing my clothes?" Ji Wanqiu came back to her senses, only to realize that her daughter's outfit today is a bit weird, not to mention wearing a suit, but also light makeup and lipstick on her face.

Lin Yanwan's mind turned quickly: "Mom, I... I went to interview for a summer job today, and Jiang Xia accompanied me."

Ji Wanqiu nodded slightly, it was reasonable to wear a suit for the interview.

"Oh, did you have it in the interview?"

"I don't know yet, they just asked me to come back and wait for the notice, and said that I met their requirements."

Jiang Xia secretly gave his wife a thumbs up and a slap, young man, the reaction is quick.

The underlying meaning of waiting for the notification is that the interview was not passed, and the rest of the interview is all about the scene. Of course, Ji Wanqiu knows these words, but she doesn't want to dampen her daughter's enthusiasm, so she said softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely pass the interview."

"Sit down for a while, I'll make dinner."

Ji Wanqiu carried her into the kitchen, Lin Yanwan gave Jiang Xia a few winks, then walked into her sister's room and closed the door, soon only the son-in-law and the father-in-law were left in the living room.

Jiang Xia hid on the side and buried his head in petting the cat. He obviously felt that the old man was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to speak boldly, what if he was upset again.

The best way is to wait for Lin Gaoyuan to take the initiative to talk, and he adapts accordingly.

The atmosphere in the living room fell silent for a while, and no one wanted to speak, which was very embarrassing.

"Has your admission letter arrived yet?" Lin Gaoyuan asked suddenly.

Jiang Xia was stunned for two seconds before realizing that the old man was talking to him?He has thought about many dialogue scenes, and he can only say that the way the old man shortens the distance between the two is a bit unique.

"Not yet, it should be soon."

"Yanwan's hasn't arrived yet." After a pause, Lin Gaoyuan continued: "You and Yanwan both seem to be applying for Tsinghua University, right?"

"Ah."

Lin Gaoyuan nodded, and wanted to say that the two of them would take care of each other when they arrived in the emperor, but after thinking about it, they still didn't say anything.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away, no matter how upset I am, after my daughter leaves home, I guess I will have to rely on this kid.

"What are you doing sitting so far away? I'm scary?".

Jiang Xia said awkwardly, "No, you are much more kind now than when you beat me up."

Lin Gaoyuan glared at him, this kid dared to joke with him, it seemed that he was not afraid of him in his heart.

As far as character is concerned, this kid is quite satisfied as his son-in-law.

"Does the face still hurt? If it still hurts, I still have Diannan Baiyao here, use it to rub it."

"It was all healed yesterday." Jiang Xia shook her head and said, "Uncle Lin, what are you doing with so much Diannan Baiyao if you have nothing to do? Do you want to beat me up a few times?"

"..."

Lin Gaoyuan was speechless for a moment, and suddenly felt that there was no reason for him to beat him that day.

This girl deserves a beating, why did she only get two punches back then?

Chapter 157

The smell of food wafts from the kitchen.

After Jiang Xia made such a beating joke, Lin Gaoyuan originally wanted to say sorry to the future son-in-law, but now... forget it.

I don't know what's going on, anyway, somehow it becomes a little more pleasing to the eye.

Jiang Xia held the taro ball and moved her butt a little bit to the old man's side, Lin Gaoyuan squinted at it, this kid was obviously not afraid of him, and he still put on such a hard disguise.

"I heard from Yan Wan that your father drives a taxi?" Lin Gaoyuan asked lightly.

"Well, I have been driving for more than [-] years. It was too tiring to drive a large truck before, but it is easier to drive a taxi." Jiang Xia replied.

Lin Gaoyuan nodded. He didn't discriminate against occupations. Everyone was begging for a living. When he didn't make a fortune, he was a carpenter. Later, he opened a toy factory, and his life gradually became easier.

As a result, we are now facing the global financial crisis and the economy is going down. Seeing that the factory is also on the verge of collapse, maybe we have to pay for all the previous profits.

Therefore, in a person's life, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, the current fish seller may be the big boss of a certain group in the future.

Destiny is so mysterious that it is impossible to tell.

"It's good to drive a taxi." Lin Gaoyuan sighed softly.

If possible, he would like to find a job with a stable job now, but there is no way, he can't let go.

"It's really good."

Jiang Xia agrees very much. Nowadays, there are few private cars and the roads are unimpeded. The starting price is five yuan. After a month, you can earn a lot of money.

"What do you think of the toy industry?" He asked suddenly.

Although I don't think a boy who just graduated can say anything, but I still want to hear the views of Qingmei's top students.

The corners of Jiang Xia's eyes twitched slightly, thinking that the father-in-law's test had finally come.

"Throughout the ages, the market potential of toys has always been great."

Jiang Xia thought for two seconds, then continued: "In ancient times, toys included splashing drums, bamboo dragonflies, jigsaw puzzles, Luban locks, etc. In modern times, the development of information technology has broadened people's horizons. Toy factories such as All kinds of toys have sprung up after the rain.”

Lin Gaoyuan frowned slightly. Although what Jiang Xia said was fine, it was not what he wanted to hear. Everyone understood this kind of truth.

"What about the current environment?"

"Disaster."

"Oh? Talk about it."

"Modern development means the liberation of productivity. Although there are many types of toys on the market, there are also many competing products of the same type. When everyone's quality and appearance are similar, consumers will naturally choose cheap ones, not to mention the current economic downturn. , The lower-level toy market has long been saturated, and the inventory is huge. It is very difficult to make money, but it will be very good if you can keep it from losing money."

Jiang Xia deliberately talked about the lower-level low-end toy market. Toys in this field are easy to imitate and have little technical content. It can be said that the threshold is extremely low. If you have some money, you can enter the market by buying a production line.

And Lao Zhangren's toy factory is just like this. Its main products are children's toys. Its sales volume has been good in recent years and it has also made some money. However, when the financial crisis hits, the disadvantages are revealed.

Lin Gaoyuan remained silent, Jiang Xia's words almost reached his heart, isn't this the predicament he is facing now?Can't receive orders, and can't sell the inventory. Even if it is a price war, a small factory like him is not qualified at all.

"Well... then what's your opinion? I mean, how to get out of the current predicament."

Jiang Xia stopped rubbing the taro ball's stomach, and tapped her fingers habitually.

He really has a way to save it, such as live broadcasting to bring goods. According to the current popular Internet memes, making some Internet celebrity toys may be able to drive sales.

If he remembers correctly, the first Double Eleven event was held in 2009. Computers are not popular yet, online shopping is still a very novel term in China, and many brick-and-mortar stores are still on the sidelines.

As a reborn person, Jiang Xia knows very well that e-commerce will enter a period of barbaric growth in the next ten years, riding on the wind of 4G and 5G. If he can enter the market early and enjoy the dividends of the times, he will make a lot of money Bowl full.

"Uncle Lin, have you ever considered selling your own toys on an online shopping platform? You can sell them directly to consumers without contacting dealers," Jiang Xia said.

"Are you talking about Taobao?" Lin Gaoyuan thought for a while and said, "Yan Wan told me a long time ago that I am usually busy and not free, and she is the one who makes trouble."

"How's the benefit?"

"The benefits are mediocre. I can make some money, but not much." Lin Gaoyuan shook his head and said.

He doesn't like that little money, and it's almost enough to pay for Yanwan's tuition. If it wasn't for his daughter's constant request, he wouldn't want to do it anymore. Sending couriers every day is really troublesome.

Jiang Xia frowned, why was the result different from what he thought, and Lin Yanwan never mentioned it to him, could it be because he didn't make much money?

He has no doubts about his wife's wisdom. Since she started to fiddle with it long in advance and is familiar with various marketing strategies in her previous life, logically speaking, this shouldn't be the result.

If Lin Yanwan's operation did not make a mistake, where did the problem lie?

In fact, it was Jiang Xia who had a preconceived subjective concept. He ignored the current e-commerce environment, thinking that as long as he opened an online store at this time, he would definitely be able to make money.

But he forgot that in 2009, the scale of e-commerce in the entire domestic market was only more than 2000 billion, and this also included the Double Eleven Shopping Festival.

In the first half of the year, it is estimated to be tens of billions, and it will be very little if it is distributed to the national market.

In later generations, Taobao was the only platform, and the turnover on Double Eleven alone exceeded [-] billion.It is conceivable how bleak the current domestic e-commerce environment is.

But if you open an online store to sell toys, and then contact the manufacturer to get the goods and ship them directly, you don’t need to pay a penny, you only earn the difference, and you can earn some pocket money every month.

But this amount of money is almost negligible compared to the daily expenses of a toy factory. Various labor costs, material costs, maintenance costs, water and electricity, and rent, etc., are easily more than [-] per month.

After figuring out the key to the problem, Jiang Xia suddenly realized that in the end, the overall e-commerce market is not good enough, and it is really difficult to keep the factory running through online shopping.

"Uncle Lin, if I'm not wrong, Yanwan should only open an online shop at the moment." Jiang Xia said suddenly.

Lin Gaoyuan thought for a few seconds and nodded lightly: "Yes."
