Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

Zhao Dabai thought about it and nodded, "Okay, let's do it. Do you need any more manpower? If so..."

Zhou Qi understood his thoughts, interrupted him, patted Zhao Dabai on the shoulder and said, "Not everyone wants this."

How could he possibly get all his brothers to come? Last time, they all ran away in a swarm, and only Wang Kuo and Yang Chao were loyal, the others were really not that good. Besides, if they all came, wouldn't they become a small group?

Zhou Qi called Zhang Gongzheng over and said, "Let them hand in their ID cards tomorrow, and you will be responsible for handling the entry formalities. You should also find an office for yourself to use in the future."

Now I have my own office? Zhang Gongzheng's eyes lit up, and his excitement was beyond words.

Seeing this, Zhou Qi smiled and announced, "Congratulations, you have officially been promoted to the dual-position director of dispatch and personnel of our company. Get ready. The next important task of recruitment will be handed over to you."

"Oh, Brother Qi, you are so awesome! Leave it to me, it will be no problem!" Zhang Gongzheng was so excited that he almost jumped up. When he thought about himself sitting behind a desk and the interviewer calling him "Director" one after another, he felt so happy that he wanted to bring a carload of applicants over immediately. So he couldn't wait to say, "Brother Qi, I'll go to the job market now."

"Don't worry." Zhou Qi waved his hand and assigned tasks: "First, you need to install the telephone. There is not even a telephone in this place. It is too difficult to contact. Also, this wall needs to be reinforced and the door needs to be repainted."

Tasks came one after another, and as long as Zhou Qi felt something was not pleasing to the eye, Zhang Gongzheng had to go and fix it. Zhang Gongzheng felt overwhelmed, but he had no choice but to do it because he had the right to be the administrative director.

There was no way, there was a shortage of staff and Zhang Gong was very busy.

On the other side, Zhou Qi brought Zhao Dabai and three others to the factory and used the wood to renovate the factory according to his plan.

The work is not complicated. It mainly involves making some long clothes hangers, tables and the like, cutting, nailing, and painting the wood. It can be done by following a set of processes.

The next day or so was filled with odd jobs, and everyone was busy like a spinning top. As for personnel, through Cao Yuan's recommendation, 20 people were recruited, 15 women and 5 men.

It is worth mentioning that the first batch of apples arrived, four trucks, nearly twenty tons, piled in the warehouse like a mountain of apples, and the whole factory was filled with the sweet scent of apples.

However, facing the mountain of apples, Cao Qinquan was worried: "Brother Qi, our company is not just selling apples, right?"

To be honest, after two days of hard work, we still don’t know what the company does. With so many Apple products coming out all of a sudden, it’s hard not to make such associations.

"These apples are shipped from the tobacco market. They are rare here. You can try them!" Zhou Qi said, throwing one to Cao Qinquan.

Click!

Zhou Qi took a bite of the apple first, feeling the sweetness and crispness, and the juice under the thin skin. He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: This apple is so damn delicious.

But Cao Qinquan was not in such a good mood. He said worriedly: "Brother Qi, I think we can sell a lot of things, just like the rice before. The price is right and people line up to buy it. But for these apples, some families in our village can't even get enough food!"

He stopped talking halfway. After all, no matter where the apples came from or how delicious they were, the villagers were poor and could not exchange them for money. If they could not sell them, they would just have to watch them rot, which was just a waste of money.

Zhou Qi listened, chewed the apple and laughed, saying: "Qinquan, when doing business, you have to have a broad vision, you can't just focus on the palm-sized land in our village. These apples are so good, there are so many people who want to try them in the big market in the city, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them!"

Cao Qinquan took a bite of the apple with doubt. It was indeed sweet, but then he became worried again: "Brother Qi, we don't have much money, but we have hired a lot of people now."

As the accountant, he has felt that money is flowing out these past two days. He thought that 10,000 yuan was quite wealthy, but now there is less than 3,000 yuan left in the account, not including the wages. If the wages are included, the account will be negative.

"Why are you worried? Your salary won't be paid until the end of the month, not now." Zhou Qi smiled and patted his shoulder. "As soon as the apples are sold, the money will come."

"What if it can't be sold?" Cao Qinquan asked.

"Then let's just close down!" Zhou Qi looked relaxed.

"What about the employees' salaries?" Cao Qinquan became even more anxious.

"If each of us carries a few kilograms of apples home, it can be considered that all the work is not in vain," said Zhou Qi.

These words made Cao Qinquan feel a little gloomy. These people were introduced by Cao's father, and Zhou Qi paid them a good salary. Everyone had hope on their faces. If they really collapsed and didn't even get paid, what would they do?

"Brother Qi, if it really comes to that, don't worry. If the family makes some money from selling cotton and cloth, I will pay for the wages then." Cao Qinquan said seriously.

Zhou Qi smiled when he heard this and said, "Do you have so little confidence in Apple?"

Cao Qinquan nodded naively.

Zhou Qi continued, "Let me tell you, our apples are very competitive in the market and the price is affordable. I'm afraid that the supply will not be enough to meet the demand. What you should worry about is not whether you can sell them, but whether there are enough apples to sell."

The price is affordable, which is good news. Cao Qinquan's eyes rekindled hope and asked hurriedly: "Brother Qi, how much do we plan to sell apples for per kilogram?"

"Nine cents!" Zhou Qi answered simply and neatly.

Upon hearing the price, Cao Qinquan was completely stunned. Apples only sold for 70 cents per pound in the market, and this news was like an eggplant hit by frost, which wilted immediately.

"There are discounts if you buy more!" Zhou Qi said leisurely.

"How much discount can I get?" A glimmer of hope ignited in Cao Qinquan's heart.

"Eight cents!"

Cao Qinquan: “…” He felt disappointed. If the price was so high, the purchase price must not be cheap either. This was obviously a losing deal.

When Cao Qinquan thought about the crisis of bankruptcy just after the company started, he felt so sad that he almost couldn't hold back his tears: "Brother Qi, the entry procedures have not been completed yet, otherwise, I will tell everyone to go back for the time being!"

At this time, Ma Yuancai's voice came from behind, with a hint of joking: "What are you two doing? Standing there like two stone statues."

Looking back, I saw Ma Yuancai wearing a floral shirt, jeans, and frog-eye glasses. The way he walked was full of confidence and pride.

"Hey, Mr. Ma is here!" Zhou Qi greeted him with a smile. One look at the folder under his armpit revealed what treasures were inside. Zhou Qi's "Mr. Ma" made Ma Yuan feel very happy.

"Well, come and have a look." Ma Yuancai took off his glasses, held them up to his eyes and looked around, then nodded with satisfaction: "It looks good, very good, I am very satisfied."
