Chapter 15 New Business Direction
“Uh, okay.” Seeing Elena’s firm attitude, Yang Wendong also knew that this kind of thing might really not be forced.
He believes that he cannot sacrifice too much of his own interests for others. He prefers a win-win model, such as working for the poor when he is able.
However, there is indeed a group in this world that is doing such things. For these people, Yang Wendong still has a little respect in his heart.
Elina said: "Yang Sheng, now your products have officially entered some departments under the Hong Kong government. I can introduce them, but in the future, whether those warehouses will continue to purchase them will not be I can control it.
As far as I know, several businesses in Hong Kong that make rat cages and rat poisons have also begun to become active. They also want to win this market, so what happens next is up to you. "
"Well, I understand, no matter what, I am very grateful to Ms. Elena. "Yang Wendong said sincerely.
Elena added: "You're welcome, your things are relatively cheap themselves. As a Hong Kong government official, it is also my job to save procurement costs for the Hong Kong government. "
Yang Wendong thought for a while and said: "Ms. Elena, don't worry, when I have the ability in the future, I will definitely give it to Hong Kong squatters or those homeless people who can ensure that they have enough to eat. work. ”
In Hong Kong, those who live in squatters are very pitiful, but there are also many people who are even worse off, that is, people who don’t even have a place to live in squatters.
Although the dormitory looks shabby, in fact, you still need to pay some money to some gang members, otherwise, you will not even think about living in it.
Behind these gang members, there are actually shadows of the police or other departments of the Hong Kong government.
Those who are poor and cannot pay will be evicted and become truly homeless.
Or, when a fire occurs or there is heavy wind and rain, the wooden squatter houses are damaged, which will also make people homeless.
As far as Yang Wendong knows, in a few years, a large-scale fire will occur in Hong Kong squatters, causing heavy casualties and even alarming the international media.
But the saddest thing is that although fires have claimed many lives, more people have lost their homes due to man-made disasters.
After international media reports, the Hong Kong government began to demolish squatters on a large scale due to pressure from international public opinion.
As for where these people live? Will he freeze to death or starve to death? Who cares?
Although the British Hong Kong government openly says that it will build affordable housing, most people who really need it cannot apply for it at all. Instead, people with connections get these affordable housing and then build them. Rent to the poor.
This is Hong Kong in the 1950s. No one can change it. Individual power cannot change this chaotic society at all.
Elena nodded and said: "That's the best."
In a chaotic society, what Yang Wendong can do is to change his destiny as soon as possible.
Hong Kong society has countless opportunities in the future, but currently the only thing Yang Wendong can rely on is his own mousetrap.
In the afternoon, several people came to the first warehouse they had been to before. Because Elena had brought them in before, they went in easily.
A Chinese employee arranged for them to work in a corner, and a few of them quickly and skillfully assembled the mousetraps. Then, under the command of Yang Wendong, they put all the mousetraps in On the walls and corners.
When it was almost finished, a British ghost guy came over. It was Brian who had been talking to Elena in the morning.
Brian saw the location of the mousetrap, walked over and asked: "Hey, why are these mouse-catching tools placed by the wall?"
Yang Wendong was surprised and asked: "Where did you put it before?"
"Put it next to the grain?" Brian replied: "It's because we didn't dare to use rat poison next to the grain, and mouse traps can easily hurt people. Rat cages The effect of catching mice is not good, so Elena introduced us to use this thing of yours." "Uh," Yang Wendong was speechless for a while and said, "Mr. Brian, no matter what kind of tool is used to catch mice, it cannot be released directly. Next to food, the effect will be very poor.”
No wonder these people can't catch mice, they don't understand this basic common sense.
However, you really can’t blame them. These people’s living conditions are probably not bad, they don’t have much contact with rats in their daily lives, and they don’t have much experience.
It is not like Yang Wendong, a person from later generations, who has 20 years of experience in the information explosion of the Internet, and knows information that countless people of this era will never know in their lifetime.
In this era, even the President of the United States may not be able to obtain external information faster and more widely than a smartphone in later generations.
Yang Wendong knows a little bit of common sense in many aspects, but people in this era may need many years of in-depth understanding to be able to do it.
Brian nodded and said: "It makes sense, then why put it against the wall?"
Yang Wendong said: "This is the natural characteristic of mice. They are very cautious and there are many natural enemies in nature, so their The instinct is to walk against the wall and put any mouse-catching tools next to the wall or the corner, the effect will be better
Also..."
Then, Yang Wendong simply said. Introduced some basic common sense.
Brian thought for a while and said: "Well, that's it. It's a pity that I didn't get to know you earlier. Before, our warehouse damaged a lot of food because of rats, and a lot of it had to be disposed of. ”
Yang Wendong smiled and didn't answer any more.
Brian was silent for a moment and then said: "What's your name?"
Yang Wendong replied: "My surname is Yang, and my name is Yang Wendong."
"Well, Yang Sheng , I see you are also in business, how about I contract the rodent control work in our warehouse to you?" Brian suddenly said.
Yang Wendong was surprised and asked: "Give it to me?"
Brian nodded and said: "Yes, in fact, we also bought a lot of tools to exterminate rats before. Some of the initial results were good, but they stopped working later.
I originally thought it was a problem with the tools. Now it seems that my subordinates don’t know anything about this. I think you are a professional, so it is more appropriate to leave it to you.”
“It is indeed a method.” Yang Wendong nodded, feeling happy.
This is actually the model of rodent control companies in later generations. If you can take this path to develop, you will be much better than making a mouse trap.
Because as far as he knows now, many people are already making mouse traps.
In Hong Kong at present, there may not be a professional company such as a rodent control company. There is a concept of specialization in the technical industry. In this era, it may not have appeared on a large scale.
As the world's largest trade re-export place, Hong Kong has a large number of warehouses. If the Hong Kong government is worried about the extremely low probability but possible plague, then this market, at least in the short term, will be very large.
