That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Boss Cui, give me a table. I'm treating you to a distinguished guest today, but don't fool me with dead fish and rotten shrimps!

I don't dare to fool anyone. I don't dare to fool you!

Boss Cui looked at Jin Peng entering the door and grinned crookedly.

He was surprised and happy!

Fortunately, Jin Peng is a very cosmopolitan person. He often brings employees from several stores over to have dental rituals. He doesn't even ask about the price of meals and doesn't care at all about spending a few extra dollars.

What was shocking was that that night, right in front of my hotel, good guy Zhao Zilong with a silver gun!

When Huang Gang knocked on the door, Boss Cui heard it, but he hesitated for a long time and still didn't open the door.

His eyes were very poisonous, and he had long seen signs that Hengsan's gang had gone crazy recently. At that time, more than 20 people pounced on them. Who cares whether you are the victim or an idler? Who are you going to talk to when a shovel hits your forehead?

I finally seized the opportunity and became a household worth ten thousand yuan. I was about to enjoy life. Is it worth it for the son of a poor friend?

But Huang Gang was so stubborn that he encountered the evil stars Jin Peng and narrowly saved his life.

At noon the next day, Huang Gang's mother and daughter blocked Boss Cui's door and cursed him for two hours, but Boss Cui didn't dare to say a word.

If it weren't for Lao Cui's small private restaurant nearby, and his excellent cooking skills, maybe this scolding would have directly ruined his business!

Brother Jin, we have fresh beef, pig tails, and turtles today. How many do you want?

Whatever are there, bring them all, and give me two bottles of the best wine.

Okay! Wait a moment, everyone!

Lao Cui quickly went to the kitchen and grabbed his youngest son: Go to Uncle Hai's place quickly and get three catties of prawns and two yellow croakers. He said we need them urgently and want fresh ones.

Lao Cui's young son ran away from behind. How could a small restaurant like theirs have so many prepared dishes?

You're so good at it all of a sudden that you let the naughty customers taste it, but they still don't want to destroy your sign? Do you really think this is a state-owned hotel?

More importantly, Jin Peng and his men knocked down and injured more than 20 people, but nothing happened to them afterwards.

Do you still dare to feed such a person rotten fish and shrimp?

The chef Lao Cui and his family were busy at work, while Tian Hongshan and others in front looked at each other, a little confused.

Jin Peng suddenly stopped them, took out his work ID card, and then invited the three of them here, making people confused about what medicine was being sold in the gourd.

Tian Hongshan said: Manager Jin, let's just chat casually, don't need to go to so much trouble, right?

What kind of trouble is this? Jin Peng said while clearing the smoke for Tian Hongshan and others: Brother, I came to the capital from the south, and I was worried that I couldn't find anyone to guide me!

I happened to meet a few colleagues today. If I were to neglect them, wouldn't it be a lack of etiquette?

Tian Hongshan was very calm. He and Jin Peng first lit cigarettes, and then said with a smile: They say colleagues are enemies. We are here today to learn from experience. Manager Jin's magnanimity really makes us ashamed, hahaha~

The other two people also apologized in a low voice. After all, how could they not feel ashamed when their real master caught up with them?

But Jin Peng said angrily: Although we are enemies in the same industry, the capital is so big. Is it possible that it cannot accommodate a small fish like me? Besides, our experience is not worth mentioning.

Manager Jin, you are humble, you are humble.

Jin Peng is a person who is very suitable for being involved in the world. It only took a few minutes to eliminate the awkwardness between the two parties.

After a few hard dishes were served and a good drink was consumed, Jin Peng naturally stated his plan.

Our Beijing office of Pengcheng No. 7 Factory has just been established. If we lack business space, we will cooperate. We will take responsibility and you will benefit.

Tian Hongshan was very shrewd, but as Jin Peng gave out cooperation suggestions one by one, he was surprised and couldn't help but ask questions.

Brother Jin, you said that the purchase, inventory, and sales are all yours? We don't need help?

right!

Then you are also responsible for paying employees' wages, and we don't care about their medical benefits?

Then it will definitely be listed in the personnel files of our Seventh Factory's office in Beijing.

You pay your own taxes and it has nothing to do with us?

Of course, how much is that?

What we share is running water, not profit?

That's right! If you count the profits, there's a lot of wrangling here. It's too troublesome!

.

Tian Hongshan and a few of his friends were considered seasoned professionals, but no matter how they thought about it, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, they thought Jin Peng was a fool.

In fact, Jin Peng occupied a counter in the department store, but what he paid was not rent, but water.

Regardless of whether Pengcheng Factory No. 7 is losing money or making a profit, even if he sells a pair of socks this month, Tian Hongshan still has to pay a few cents.

And more importantly, Pengcheng No. 7 Factory held promotions in department stores, and the popularity it brought was all from the department stores!

In fact, this is the way for later brands to enter shopping malls. The brand side is responsible for all personnel and funds, and the shopping malls sit on the ground and take some money.

It's just that today's department stores are not the shopping malls of later generations. They have the ability to grow bigger and stronger independently. Unlike many shopping malls of later generations, once there are not enough merchants to move in, they will be half-dead and like a ghost town.

Jin Peng's suggestion was actually to feed Tian Hongshan and others half full, and then, brother, just lie down and sleep! The rest is mine.

Let's go back and report, and we'll contact you again.

Okay, contact me again.

Jin Peng shook hands with Tian Hongshan and others. When he shook hands with the third person, he felt something strange in the palm of his hand.

Hey, there's a way.

. . . . . . .

Jin Peng went to greet Tian Hongshan and others, and Li Ye was going to the store to greet a few people who had just arrived from his hometown.

But as soon as I arrived at the door, I saw the lady who stood up to help during the first discount sale last Sunday.

Are you busy, Sister Fang?

Hey, what are you busy with? It only takes two hours. How busy can you be?

Sister Fang's eyes lit up when she saw Li Ye, and she came over and asked, Brother, you came just in time. You said that there are people coming from Manager Jin's hometown. Is it appropriate for us to help here again?

Because Xiushui's store was always busy until after eight o'clock these days, Ma Qianshan asked the eldest sister to find a few nearby women to come and help and give her one yuan for two to three hours.

Now that there are people coming from his hometown in Qingshui County, Sister Fang and the others are not happy, but he is too embarrassed to ask Jin Peng and Ma Qianshan directly. He happened to meet Li Ye, a relative of the manager, and thought about tapping from the side. Ask.

Li Ye smiled and said: Don't you just come here when there are discounts and promotions, and you don't come usually?

Doesn’t this conflict with formal employees? Why don't you come? Do you think the money is too little? If so, I will tell you.

How can it be too little? Another woman hurriedly said with a smile: We are all here after get off work to help out and give the children pocket money. How can there be more or less?

Sister Fang also said: Brother, don't misunderstand me! I'm very grateful to Manager Jin for taking care of my niece. How can there be too much or too little now?

Okay, I won't say anything, just pretend I didn't hear anything.

Li Ye chuckled, waved his hand and went to look for Ma Qianshan.

This guy is smart and good-looking, but I don't know if he has a partner, my sister's child.

I'm a student of Peking University, so let's not mess around with each other.

Oh, you're from Beijing University! It will be great in the future.

Li Ye entered the store. Several people who had just arrived from Qingshui County were busy sorting out the goods and cleaning, while Ma Qianshan and Sister Fang's niece Fang Hongmei were carefully checking the accounts.

At the end of each day's promotion, the two of them had to align their accounts before they could get off work.

Although she got off work late, Fang Hongmei received a basic salary of thirty-seven and a half yuan as soon as she was hired, as well as overtime pay, which was much higher than her aunt, an experienced worker.

She has many brothers and sisters in her family, and they have to queue up one after another to return to the city. As a result, she returns to the city very late. She has been unemployed at home for more than half a year and has been unable to find a job. Now she is able to earn fifty or sixty yuan a month, which is enough motivation.

However, today's reconciliation may not go well. The two of them pressed the calculator and calculated several times. In the end, Fang Hongmei's forehead was sweating and they couldn't get it right.

Forget it, two yuan and fifty cents, let's count it in the loss first! You get off work first, don't keep Sister Fang waiting.

Ma Qianshan glanced at Li Ye with a guilty look and asked Fang Hongmei to get off work first.

But Fang Hongmei shook her head silently and picked up the account book again to check it.

Sister Fang also walked in and said seriously: The accounts are nothing else. I can't even come if I don't pay a penny. I will wait until dawn today to find out what went wrong.

Ma Qianshan could only nod helplessly in agreement. In fact, he couldn't see the two yuan and fifty cents, but wasn't Li Ye present today?

What a shame.

Li Ye smiled, turned around and waved Ma Qianshan out of the store, and an older man inside also followed.

Ma Qianshan said: This is Jiang Hong. He was introduced by the old man. He is the only one who knows your identity, Brother Xiaoye. Others think this place is Jin Peng's business.

Li Ye thought for a while and said to Jiang Hong: Uncle Hong, I remember seeing you when I was a child.

A smile appeared on Jiang Hong's old-fashioned face: When I got married, my uncle carried you to my house for a wedding banquet, and in the blink of an eye, it has been more than ten years.

I remember, Uncle Hong, you were a soldier who fought against the White Elephant in 1962, right?

Li Ye finally made sure and overlapped the Jiang Hong in front of him with the young man in his memory.

It happened so many years ago, Jiang Hong chuckled and said, I don't know what my uncle was thinking. This time, the names were called to come down from the battlefield in the south. These boys are too angry and not stable.

You can't say that. Uncle Hong, you still don't believe my grandfather's vision? They are very angry. From now on, Uncle Hong, just pay more attention to them and discipline them.

That's what it should be, that's what it should be.

Young people are very angry, which is sometimes a bad thing, but sometimes it is also a good thing.

Only those who have experience on the battlefield will not be timid or fearful when encountering big events, and will be able to use them effectively.

Uncle Hong said a few more words to Li Ye and then went to do other things. He spoke very little and seemed not good at communicating with others. But since his grandfather Li Zhongfa asked him to lead this group of boys, he must be someone he can trust.

Brother Xiaoye, I have something else to do today, Ma Qianshan whispered: The tax people came today. After I estimated the number with them, their eyes looked very strange.

Weird? Li Ye asked solemnly: Why is it weird? Didn't you ask?

Ma Qianshan said: Those people's thoughts are really deep. I couldn't tell. But in the end they asked me what practical difficulties they had.

That's okay, they think you filed too much tax returns.

Ah? Ma Qianshan was stunned and said with a grimace: What should I do? I haven't filed a tax return yet! How much more will I have to pay?

We have to pay this money.

Li Ye patted Ma Qianshan on the shoulder and said, Did Jin Peng never tell you that any business done must be based on the principle of 'benefiting the country and the people'?

He never told me, what is beneficial to the country and the people?

Li Ye pointed to the store and said: Just like this small wholesale store, you offer discounts and promotions so that people can buy cheap goods. Isn't it beneficial to the people?

The more money the store makes, the more taxes it pays. Isn't that beneficial to the country? Don't just think about making money yourself. When the country lets you make money, you also have to bear corresponding obligations.

.

Little brother, what you said makes sense!

Ma Qianshan is still thinking about Li Ye's words! Sister Fang and Fang Hongmei walked out of the store.

Sister Fang looked at Li Ye and said, Although I don't understand any big principles, your words, little brother, really speak to my heart.

Li Ye said in a low-key voice: I also learned this from the professor at school, but it made Sister Fang laugh.

Li Ye was a little embarrassed. After all, his proposal of benefiting the country and the people was more of a sense of self-protection.

That's better than others, Sister Fang said, No one in our unit has this awareness!

Sister, please stop praising me, Li Ye quickly changed the subject: Are the accounts correct?

Fang Hongmei nodded weakly and said: The accounts are correct. It's Team Leader Ma who made a mistake in recording an account. You recorded the 10% discount as the 20% discount, and you charged two and a half yuan less.

Ma Qianshan was very embarrassed and could only laugh at himself: Then I will write a review later!

Hahahaha~

Sister Fang took Fang Hongmei away. After walking far away, Fang Hongmei said doubtfully: Aunt, why do I look at Team Leader Ma like a leader from Beijing University?

Sister Fang immediately said: You don't know this, do you? He is an economist at Beijing University, do you know about economics? He is not only a relative of Manager Jin, but also a military advisor.

Oh, you're in economics at Beijing University! No wonder.

. . . . . .

Li Ye waited until Jin Peng came back and settled Ma Qianshan, Uncle Hong and others before driving back to Zaojun Temple.

While in the car, Jin Peng said proudly: Xiaoye, I think I'm 80% sure of taking them down. Do you have anything special to say?

Li Yedao: Nothing special, it's just what we have discussed. Try to train as many new people as possible and recruit more experienced people. Don't underestimate the sales staff. Everyone must be treated as one of your own.

Jin Peng shook his head and said: Don't worry, I think Tian Hongshan is good. Sooner or later, I will not be able to escape from Xiaoye's palm.

Brother Peng, don't be too proud. We don't have much time. It will take more than a year at most. We have to have our own team.

Li Ye saw that Jin Peng was too proud, so he poured some cold water on him.

Don't worry, it will definitely work.

After leaving Qingshui County, Jin Peng became more and more confident.

. . . . . .

Arriving at Zaojun Temple, Li Ye found that Wang Jianqiang was back.

When Wang Jianqiang saw Li Ye, he immediately became at a loss and said uneasily: Brother, I have a day off today and didn't go to the warehouse.

Li Ye said funnyly: You are a shareholder, you can take whatever days off you want! If you have anything to do of your own, just go and do it.

Anyway, you don’t get a bonus for taking too many off-duty days, so you don’t expect that salary, right?

Hey, I understand, brother.

Wang Jianqiang suddenly felt at ease.

If Ma Qianshan had listened to Li Ye's words, he might have panicked and wondered for a long time whether Li Ye was beating him.

But Wang Qiangqiang doesn't know how. Li Ye is his brother, and he will do whatever he says.

But just when Li Ye was pushing the bicycle and preparing to go back to school, Wang Jianqiang suddenly and timidly pulled the bicycle.

Brother, I have a favor to ask you.

What's the matter? Do you still need to beg? Li Ye was surprised and immediately became serious.

Wang Jianqiang made a promise for a long time before whispering: I want to learn economics from you.

Li Ye was silent for a few seconds and asked strangely: What did you say? Louder?

Wang Jianqiang raised his head and said loudly: Brother, I want to learn economics from you.

.

Pfft~~Hahahahahahaha, you are such a fool, do you know what economics is? Hahahahaha~

Jin Peng laughed so much that his cigarette dropped. He pointed at Wang Jianqiang and burst into tears.

Li Ye couldn't help but smile and asked: Qiangzi, why did you remember to study economics with me?

Wang Jianqiang said blankly: Because it is economically useful.

Li Ye could hardly hold it in any longer and asked, Then tell me, what's the use of economics?

Wang Jianqiang blushed and couldn't speak.

When we were in the hospital today, Huang Gang's sister Huang Suwen didn't look at Wang Jianqiang seriously at first.

But when Wang Jianqiang said a lot of important economic truths, the bright girl's eyes lit up.

Do you think the economy is useful?

Do you think it’s useful?

Li Ye understood Wang Jianqiang's eyes and immediately said seriously: Okay, I will teach you some knowledge about economics in a few days, but after I teach, you will be tested.

Hey, thank you, brother!

Wang Jianqiang smiled naively.

Jin Peng looked at the two living brothers, smiled disdainfully, took out a Chinese cigarette and lit one.

But then, Li Ye turned to him and said, Brother Peng, you are the same, you have to learn too.

Don't be dissatisfied. There were only a few of us in Qingshui County? How many people do you have in charge now? What about in the future?

If you were asked to speak on stage, would you really fart in front of the employees?

.

Hahahahaha~hahahaha~

Wang Jianqiang was like a monkey, laughing and jumping in the yard, so happy that he couldn't be happier.
