Chapter 13 The growing team
"Mom and Dad, if anyone comes to you in the future and plans to sell Spring Festival couplets, just agree, then give them the price list and ask them to contact me."
The two nodded.
The next day, Xu Linbing came to his door and took away two thousand yuan of goods from him.
However, despite his family’s example, not many people came to him wanting to do Spring Festival couplet business.
Most people in the village make a living by growing greenhouses, and now is a busy time. Even if they know how to make money from Spring Festival couplets, they still can't spare the time to do it.
The most important thing is that Spring Festival couplets only sell for half a month, so it is not a long-term business.
No one wants to delay the farming season for Spring Festival couplets.
......
In the next two days, Xu Liang established another sales team, but it was basically at its peak.
Larger markets consume almost the same amount of resources, and even if there are still some, they are too far away from the village. In addition, the peak sales period for Spring Festival couplets is about to begin, and each stall requires a large number of manpower.
The new people have filled the old stalls, and there is no extra manpower.
Moreover, taking stock and replenishing goods every day requires a lot of time, and he doesn’t have any extra energy.
Another day is over.
Xu Liang returned home full of expectations.
Today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, sales are hotter than expected, and everyone is busy.
He also wanted to see how much money he made today.
After entering the house, more than half of the nine teams have returned.
However, compared to the excitement of the past, today’s atmosphere is a bit gloomy.
Xu Liang's heart sank and he strode over.
"Brother Liang."
"Brother Liang is back."
Seeing that everyone was there, he felt relieved, but he also noticed that a few people were dirty and even a little damaged. clothes.
“What happened?”
A young man wearing glasses and looking gentle stood up.
"Brother Liang, when we were rushing to Dawangji today, we met a guy who used the tactics you mentioned to cheat money. After we exposed him, the guy became angry and broke many of our Spring Festival couplets. Guang Lin was so angry that he started fighting with him. "
"I didn't expect that this guy had many accomplices. Fortunately, we had more people and beat them all away. But these people said that they would make trouble for us again."
< br>"Do you know their names?"
Everyone shook their heads.
“Little dream?”
"Brother."
Xu Meng walked over quickly.
"We have paid everyone's wages. The people in the third group will get an extra twenty yuan today."
These people have protected his interests, and of course they must not be stingy with rewards. Otherwise, who will stand up for him if the same thing happens again?
Xu Meng nodded quickly.
"Thank you, Brother Liang."
"Okay, I'll go home and have a good rest after my busy work. Next time the Dawangji, Gangzi and I will go with you guys."
The Dawangji is The nearby shopping mall is second to none, and there are many factories there and the people are affluent. When he buys Spring Festival couplets, he is very generous. The last shopping mall contributed 3,000 yuan in sales revenue to him.
As the Spring Festival approaches, this number will only be higher, so it must not be thrown away.
"Great, with Brother Liang and Brother Gang here, we can definitely beat the shit out of those guys." Everyone said excitedly.
Xu Liang and Huo Gang have been practicing kung fu with Mr. Huo since they were young. Their fighting skills are top-notch, and no young man in the whole village is dissatisfied.
Waving to signal everyone to be quiet.
"Take inventory first, and we'll talk about other things later. We're all busy."
With him presiding over, the originally low atmosphere quickly became high.
We were busy until seven o'clock in the evening before we dispersed.
Xu Liang sat on the bed, with colorful money piled in front of him.
After classifying according to face value, use a calculator to calculate.
"Brother, how much is it?"
"What do you think?"
"Is it fifty thousand?"
Xu Liang knocked on his sister's fair forehead, "Fifty thousand? You are so greedy." "Oh, brother, don't be so pretentious, tell me how much it is?"
"Thirty thousand taels." One thousand three hundred and nine yuan.”
A happy smile appeared on Xu Liang’s face.
“Wow, it’s doubled compared to yesterday!” Xu Meng also looked excited.
"If you include the labor costs and transportation costs we spent today, the revenue will be almost 35,000 yuan." Xu Liang said.
"Brother, will it be higher tomorrow?"
After Xu Liang nodded, "Generally speaking, the three or four days before the New Year are the highest, that is, twenty-seven, twenty Eight and twenty-nine. "
Although there is still another New Year's Eve, everyone has bought everything they should buy on this day. In addition, there are still dumplings to make for graves, so there will be fewer people going to the market.
In his last life, he was rushing to the New Year’s Eve party. No one was there at 12 o’clock, and he didn’t make much money.
There is no need to worry anymore in this life.
"Great, our revenue will definitely exceed 40,000 yuan in these three days."
Xu Liang's eyes also showed a little more anticipation.
“Okay, let’s go back and rest early, we will continue to be busy tomorrow.”
……
There was no talk all night, but starting at 5:30 the next day, the whole alley, including Old Xu's family, was full of people.
The bright car lights illuminated the entire street as bright as day. Eighty or ninety young men and women carried things into the car according to their respective teams.
Everything looks messy but not messy.
However, there are always surprises.
A young man with a round face and parted hair hurried over, his expression revealing panic.
"Brother Liang, I just called Master Liu. His wife answered the call and said that he was cold last night and had a fever of 38 degrees 9. He can't come over today."
"Master Liu? Back Street Liu Jun?”
“Yes.”
The driver had an accident, which was what Xu Liang expected.
Take out the newly bought Nokia mobile phone from your pocket, open the phone book, browse briefly and then make a call.
After ringing for a moment, the phone was connected.
"Who is it?"
The tone is very bad.
It is also understandable that in winter mornings are the time to sleep in, and no one wants to be disturbed.
If you don’t curse, you already have a good temper.
"Master Li? I'm from Beixing Village. I want Master Li to do some work. The price is negotiable."
"I have already agreed to someone else's job today. Bang."
Call directly The call was disconnected.
Xu Liang’s expression remained unchanged and he continued to hit the second one.
He has many drivers’ phone numbers saved in his phone.
After calling four times in a row, I finally found the car.
Put away your phone.
"Okay, your team will wait for a while."
"I know, Brother Liang."
"The others who have loaded their cars will leave first." Xu Liang greeting.
Because the number of people in a sales team has nearly doubled compared to before, motorized tricycles cannot pull them around, and now they have all been replaced by light trucks with buckets.
The long queue of cars set off one after another, and the alley quickly became quiet.
Half an hour later, the new car arrived. After the last team set off, Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.
Nowadays, he rarely goes to the market to sell Spring Festival couplets in person. He is more responsible for purchasing goods and handling various emergencies. At the same time, monitor the sales of each team.
For example, was there any slack in work, was there any stealing of money, etc.
Of course, he can only do his best and cannot completely eliminate it.
Fortunately, the people selling Spring Festival couplets are all young people about his age. They are not so courageous and not complicated, so there will not be too much loss.
