Chapter 1127 Entrepreneurial Team

Moreover, Bob can’t afford to pay his salary now, so he can only cooperate with others to do business. There is no better choice than Li Laite, his high school friend.

 But Li Laite also had his own concerns. As a poor student educated in low-cost compulsory education in East Africa, Li Laite spent most of his time on campus, so he still hoped to have a stable job.

The job assigned to Lilite was that of a furniture factory worker, which was not much better than Bob's linen textile factory. However, Lilite considered himself to be relatively hard-working. After all, in East African secondary education, students' physical fitness was above the passing line. Although it is not as good as the many child laborers in Europe who are forced to work at an early age due to family and other reasons, it is not like the kind of nerd who cannot lift it with his hands or carry it on his shoulders.

This is actually easy to understand. The cost of education and physical education in East Africa is low. They don’t even need textbooks or highly qualified physical education teachers. In addition, there are few class hours, lax management, and adequate sleep. Most students are very healthy. .

So Li Laite said: "I feel that I am still suitable for working in a furniture factory. After all, I don't have the hands-on ability like you. Although the work in the furniture factory is a bit tiring, it is more stable and there is no need to mess around."

Bob warned: "But the room for advancement is small, and it is difficult to get ahead without connections. But starting a business with me is different. We are our own bosses, and we can allocate our time freely, and how much money we make depends entirely on our ability."

“I am responsible for product production and you are responsible for sales. With this division of labor and cooperation, we will definitely earn less than what we earn in the factory. Now that the policy has been liberalized, free choice of career will definitely be the general trend in the future.”

Bob knows that Li Liter is a good eloquent, at least much better than him, and Bob needs Li Liter to help him sell his products.

Li Laite nodded and said: "This does make sense, but I'm afraid my parents won't agree."

Bob: "Your parents can't control you forever. Besides, we are adults now and can make decisions about our own lives. Besides, except for us in East Africa, most countries in the world have free markets. In this case, start a business with me." It’s not a shame, we might be able to create those legendary achievements of wealth in the United States…”

With Bob's affection and Xiao Zhi's wooing, Li Laite finally relented and said, "How about we give it a try first, and we have a limit of three days. If the sales results are good, I will work with you."

Bob nodded and said: "No problem, I will be responsible for providing the product, you go to the streets to sell it, and we will make the final decision after three days based on the results."

So the two people started a preliminary attempt, and Bob worked overnight to finish a batch of finished radios. The next day, Lilette took the rather crude finished products and started his own sales trip, which was somewhat similar to selling CDs on the streets or sneaking into schools to sell CDs in his previous life. Ballpoint pen salesman.

ˆ Bob’s hand-made radio is relatively simple, but as an electronic product, it is still considered a high-end home appliance in East Africa.

After calculating the cost, the two set a relatively reasonable price, which is one-third lower than the sales price of radios on the market. Regardless of appearance and source, the specific functions are not much different.

Seeing that he had earned more than 20 Rhine guilders from selling hand-operated radios, Lilette was extremely excited: "Bob, this is the first time I have received such a large sum of money since I was a child. I earned so much in just three days." , it would be unimaginable if we could do it for a year.”

Bob was also very excited: "I would say that this business has a great future. There are still many rich people in Dar es Salaam. We underestimated the market potential. There are few people in the market now, which is our advantage. As long as we get a head start, we can be among the first to eat crabs. This is much better than working tirelessly in a factory. When we earn more, we may be able to open a small workshop, and finally After upgrading to a factory, we can also become a big shot at the level of factory director." Li Laite believed Bob's words deeply. After all, the real benefits are more inspiring than any words, and this strengthened the two people's confidence in starting a business. In this way, Bob and Lilette earned their first pot of gold by rubbing the radio by hand.

In the future, these two young people relied on this business to become bigger and stronger, and established their own company, specializing in the production and sales of electrical products, which was considered a small success.

Across East Africa, there are many people like Bob and Lillet who choose to start their own businesses, and they have also created a large number of wealthy people. With the injection of foreign capital, the entire East African social economy is booming.

Of course, due to the lack of start-up capital, the gap between private capital and state-owned capital in East Africa is still very significant. The East African government controls the lifeline of the national economy. East Africa is still dominated by a planned economic system. The free market can only be regarded as important in the current East African economy. In addition, the impact on the overall economy of East Africa is relatively small.

However, it has greatly improved the development of East Africa's service industry, light industry, and handicraft industry, making East Africa's industrial structure begin to develop more balanced and comprehensively.

Accompanying this was the partial social unrest in East Africa from 1911 to 1913. The liberalization of market competition directly led to operating difficulties for a number of East African state-owned enterprises, especially many small local enterprises that were not enterprising.

Such small local enterprises can easily be replaced by some handicraft workshops or other private enterprises, and the East African government has to upgrade and eliminate these enterprises.

The term unemployment also began to appear in East Africa, which led to a certain increase in criminal activities in East Africa, and the business volume of the East African police stations also increased.

But the overall situation is within the control of the government. Although the unemployment problem occurs, it is not large-scale in the overheated economy. As long as you are not lazy, you can basically find a job. However, people's hearts cannot withstand the test, and there are always people who want to take shortcuts and take risks.

The advantages and disadvantages of the New Economic Policy have begun to be clearly reflected, but compared to the chaos of European and American society, the overall social order in East Africa can be said to be very good.

Generally speaking, the economic development of East Africa is now in a state of great vitality, and the industrial growth rate in East Africa even exceeds the First Five-Year Plan and the Second Five-Year Plan.

According to common sense, the industrial development of East Africa during the Third Five-Year Plan period is unlikely to be more successful than the previous two Five-Year Plans. However, the new economic policy and large-scale borrowing are equivalent to injecting new blood into the East African economy.

During the Third Five-Year Plan period, East Africa was faced with the pressure of rapid population growth and relatively lagging overseas market expansion. Against this background, East Africa achieved more brilliant development achievements than the first two Five-Year Plans, and the New Economic Policy made great contributions.

Regarding this, Ernst is happy to see the results. Although many problems have been caused in order to develop the economy, in order to deal with the lack of production capacity that may arise in the future war, these small problems can be ignored for now and adjustments will be made after the war is over. Just solve it. Ernst only ensured that the general direction of the entire country was correct. As for the mistakes in details, many of them were unavoidable.

Even without the New Economic Policy, many corresponding social problems will arise in East Africa. Any policy should be adjusted to adapt to the development of the times. An unchanging society is a dead end.
