Wang Tianxiao was keenly aware that his sister's eyes became much darker after scanning a certain position, and said: "Don't worry about the cost, it's just more than a thousand yuan a year, brother will pay it for you. As long as our family pays I am a man of culture, so I am happy in my heart.”
"Ah... so much money, I don't know what to do?"
Wang Xiaolan was obviously not confident, and the excitement just now disappeared.
Children from poor families are like this.
Once encountering money-related matters, he immediately becomes timid.
Wang Tianxiao knew that her sister definitely wanted to go there. After all, this was her dream. However, the tuition fee was 1,800 per year for three years of study. In addition, board and lodging could be provided, but the requirement of paying money really made her a little worried.
Because it cost a lot of money, I began to wonder if I could learn something.
In case of not being able to learn, the money is not wasted in vain.
This kind of thinking that if you pay a little, you must get something is a typical thinking of the poor.
You can’t blame them, it’s just because the poor really don’t have much. If you pay a lot and get nothing, then it means you get nothing.
After the prosperity has come to an end, there is no place for chicken feathers.
And rich people can try and make mistakes at will, because even if they are wrong, they still have the opportunity to turn back.
and failure, itself is a summary of experience.
"My brother will ask you a question, do you like literature, do you want to become a writer in the future, and be able to write a good work?"
"Of course I do."
"Then don't worry about anything else, just sign up. Let me see, isn't it a few months before you sign up? It's still early. You remember this. Brother, I have a lot of things recently, and I may have forgotten it after a while." .”
"No need, brother, so much money..."
"Not much, not much. Look at the medicines all over the mountains and plains. When I sell them, I will definitely sell them for a lot of money. It is not easy to pay you a tuition fee. Don't worry about your brother. Just work hard to realize your own dreams." dream."
"Brother..." Wang Xiaolan burst into tears, "There are so many brothers and sisters, you are the best to me."
Wang Tianxiao was stunned, and rubbed his sister's head lightly, "Silly girl, brother is not good to you, who is good to you, isn't that what your brother thinks about, you are all living well, so I am relieved. "
"Well, I will definitely work hard."
Wang Xiaolan smiled, but there were still tears on her face, and the pear blossoms were raining.
"Go and tell your sister-in-law the good news. She will be happy for you too. Our old Wang family has finally found a decent cultural person."
"Hey, then I'll go in first."
Wang Tianxiao shook his head and smiled when he saw his sister bouncing into his room to find Li Yali.
It looks like he is over twenty years old, and he still looks like a child.
I don’t know how she stayed in the south and how much she suffered.
It's even more unclear. In her previous life, she didn't reconcile with her mother in the end, and it was a difficult life.
It turned out that Wang Tianxiao wasn't the only one who couldn't help but feel the same way about many other people.
After dinner in the afternoon, Wang Tianxiao realized that he hadn't seen Zhang Wenyuan for a few days, so he was going to look for him. On the one hand, he wanted to walk around, and on the other hand, he wanted to talk to him about the future development.
When we arrived at Wenyuan Hotel, Zhang Wenyuan was still not there, and he came back after waiting for a while.
Seeing Wang Tianxiao sitting on the sofa drinking tea was very happy, and almost gave him a big hug.
Wang Tianxiao hurriedly blocked this enthusiasm, telling the other party that he only likes women.
And men don't want to cuddle.
Zhang Wenyuan laughed, took a few sips of cold tea from the cup on his desk, and then said with a smile: "I haven't seen you recently, I was still thinking about what you are doing, and I was thinking that I would go to your station Go around and see if you are still alive, you came here unexpectedly, do you think this is a telepathic communication?"
"Go and connect with your girls, don't drag me, I don't have this interest, I'm very normal."
"Relentless."
Zhang Wenyuan was not joking, but opened his bag, took out a passbook from it and handed it to Wang Tianxiao.
"What?"
"Take it, it won't hurt you anyway, what are you afraid of?"
Wang Tianxiao took it over and took a look. It turned out to be a passbook from the Agricultural Bank of China. When he opened it, he found 40,000 yuan in cash.
He looked at Zhang Wenyuan unexpectedly, and asked him what he meant.
Zhang Wenyuan smiled and said, "This is your second quarter dividend."
"Prefab?"
"That's right, according to the agreement we signed, you get 20%. From the beginning to June, excluding all expenses, the net profit is about 190,000, and you can get more than 38,000. I made a round number for you." , exactly forty thousand."
"There are so many?"
Wang Tianxiao was not surprised by this kind of dividends, what surprised him was the amount of dividends.
It was said to be a quarter, but because the business didn’t start until the end of April, it was two months, and there were such good benefits.
It was beyond his imagination.
He thought it was more than 10,000 at most.
"Because all the original utility poles have to be pulled out and replaced with new ones, there are naturally too many orders. This is only part of it. There are still many arrears that have not been recovered, and not only the townships near us are electrified, but also the neighboring counties. It’s time to start fully electrifying.”
"So, the business can last for a long time?"
"Well, I just came back from Chi County yesterday, and there is no decent prefabrication factory there. I have already communicated with the relevant personnel there, and a preliminary cooperation agreement has been reached. If all of them are taken down, it will be a big deal. "
"Sounds good."
"It's pretty good. To tell you the truth, I didn't expect to make so much money in this kind of processing industry. If things go on like this, I can earn enough money for a hotel for three years in one year. How can I run a hotel?" Well, don’t you think so?”
"This is not a concept," Wang Tianxiao said with a smile: "It's not that the hotel industry has no prospects, but the current hotel industry has no prospects, and the hotel industry in our small city is not easy to develop. The real hotel industry needs to find developed cities or relatively Only in cities with frequent commutes.”
Zhang Wenyuan thought for a while and nodded: "Actually, I have thought about this problem before, because our city is small and remote, surrounded by mountains on several sides, and there is not even a decent road to go out, so there are not many customers. If Just relying on these local people, how much profit can we get?"
"That's right, that's the truth. I wanted to tell you before that the reason why you opened a hotel in Qingcheng and made money was not because of the hotel's problems, but because of your background. In fact, this background exists, regardless of You can make money in whatever you do, there is no need to be completely tied to the hotel.”
"Well, if you told me before, I would not believe it, but now that I have tasted the sweetness of the real industry, I understand what you said immediately."
"Haha, the comprehension is quite fast."
"Don't worry, I've always been a person of integrity and loyalty. It was you who guided me to see this business opportunity. I will definitely not let you suffer. Your shares will always exist. As long as I make money, I will not lose money." It will lose your share."
"Haha, then it's all up to Mr. Zhang."
"It should be said that we promote each other. I have money and connections, and you have knowledge. I really want you to work with me. I can share half of the shares with you. All capital and personnel investment will be borne by me. You’re just in charge of running and managing the business.”
Wang Tianxiao saw that Zhang Wenyuan was serious, and quickly shook his head.
He actually knows how much he weighs.
He just has a lot of theories, but it doesn't mean that he can really do well if he is asked to practice one by one.
It’s like a student can be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University, but the teacher who teaches him may not be able to be admitted.
The precast factory can make money, there are his suggestions, but more importantly, Wuping is well managed.
Without detailed management on the ground, he is just talking on paper. If you pull it out for a while, it will immediately show its original shape.
Wang Tianxiao feels that he does not yet have the ability to manage an enterprise.
Many of his ideas must be tested by himself before he can truly trust them and enlarge them to a larger field.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong with him, they are doing it with real money. What to do with the lost money, and who to ask for it?
People have self-knowledge.
Blindly exaggerating one's own ability is just to make one's own falsehood.
In the end, there is only the regret of being smashed to pieces.
"I'm just a few suggestions and ideas. It's the people below you who really do things," Wang Tianxiao said with a smile, "Let's just talk about the prefabrication yard. No matter how good I say, it's impossible to turn into a telegraph pole and float out. There are things to sell. It’s not that Wu Ping manages well, you should thank your brother-in-law more.”
"That's natural. Although my brother-in-law doesn't have big ideas, he can always implement things that are explained to others very well, so I think he is a general-type talent. Partially done well."
"Not bad, Mr. Zhang, I am ashamed of what you said."
"No, in my heart, Lao Wang, you are that kind of rare handsome talent. Although as you said, you have no actual management, but Wu Ping told me about the management thinking and models you proposed, and they are very good. How should I put it, looking at the many points you put forward, I feel that there is only one word, high-level sense."
Seeing that Wang Tianxiao couldn't laugh or cry, Zhang Wenyuan added: "I guess it's because you think you're not good. If I tell some of your views and thoughts to my business friends, they are also very surprised. Many people want to know you. What about you, but I didn't intend to introduce you to them, why, I'm afraid you will be attracted by others' temptation."
"I'm not a big girl, I'm afraid I'll run away with others."
"Afraid, how can you not be afraid, just relying on your ability, if you run to a competitor of mine, or even my friend, then I will suffer a huge loss. I would rather lose a million than you being killed someone else snatched it."
Wang Tianxiao suddenly laughed out loud.
"What's wrong?"
"You said that we have been complimenting each other like this, doesn't it seem very interesting?"
"Yes, it's quite boring."
"Then why don't we just be normal and direct in the future, talk about things when we have something to do, and try not to do things like putting a high hat on the other party?"
"Okay, I think so."
Zhang Wenyuan also laughed.
Although he felt that Wang Tianxiao was indeed worthy of such praise, he didn't really enjoy watching Wang Tianxiao, so forget it.
Since Wang Tianxiao has a simple personality, let's follow the truth.
It's good that they don't beat around the bush.
"Old Wang, to be honest, no matter how I am with others, I treat you as a friend. Do you believe that?"
Wang Tianxiao said with a smile: "This is not a good phenomenon. Everyone has said that you should never do business with your friends."
"That's an ordinary person, and you're not... ah, just keep talking, and then go back to the old road."
"That's right, that's why I said Mr. Zhang just likes to put a high hat on people."
"No, no, no, I can't do it after listening to you."
Zhang Wenyuan poured out the cold water in his cup, replaced it with new tea leaves, added boiling water, and helped Wang Tianxiao fill up the hot water.
"By the way, Lao Wang, you came to see me today, it must not be just for chatting, right? If you have any instructions, just say it."
Wang Tianxiao put the savings in his pocket, it was natural.
He didn't continue to worry about the number. This was an agreement the two had negotiated before, and it was signed by each other. It was something he deserved.
Business is business. Only by adhering to the spirit of the contract can we continue to cooperate for a long time.
In the business field, the most fearful thing is to vulgarize the relationship, or the kind of meaningless buddy spirit. In the end, because they can't keep up with each other, the business gradually tilts and is no longer on the original development track.
Forty thousand, more than double what he imagined, but since he deserved it, it didn't matter.
It just so happens that he has a lot of ideas recently, and they all need money to support them.
"Mr. Zhang still understands me," Wang Tianxiao said with a smile, "Indeed, I came to you this time not just for chatting, but because I have a new idea and want to discuss it with you."
"What?" Zhang Wenyuan was very interested. He knew that under such circumstances, what Wang Tianxiao said must be a new business opportunity.
The past experience has proved countless times that every time he said something, he was very farsighted and got good results.
"Before I talk, I still want to make sure, Mr. Zhang, do you still have extra funds to expand the stall?"
Zhang Wenyuan asked: "How much of this extra funds are you referring to?"
Wang Tianxiao shook his head and replied frankly: "Actually, I'm not sure how much I need, but I think it must be a lot of investment, at least not lower than the prefabrication plant."
After listening, Zhang Wenyuan nodded, lowered his head and made a rough calculation in his heart, "Because the prefabrication plant is invested in batches, I don't invest a lot of money at one time. Each quarter is 100,000 yuan, and it will be paid off in four quarters."
"One hundred thousand yuan should not be enough."
"If I really need it, I can think of a way. The funds that can be taken out directly are probably less than 800,000. If there is more, it is estimated that some capital adjustments will be needed. You know, I have a lot of things, he is not cash, Need to flip."
"If it's 800,000, I think it's almost the same."
"Well, that's good. Now let's talk about it in detail. What industry are you looking at?"
"The ratio of our cooperation, how about maintaining the original share, I only need 20% of the shares?"
"No problem." Zhang Wenyuan was decisive without thinking about it.
"I agreed so readily. You are sure that if you really invest 800,000 yuan without knowing the situation first, then I will directly share 160,000 yuan..."
"To tell you the truth, Lao Wang, I think you are worth the money. And I have a strong hunch that what you said this time must be even more exciting than the prefab factory."
"Why and how sure?"
"Because you always talked about things first before we talked about profit sharing, but this time you talked about profits before you even spoke, which means that you are more confident this time than before, and this time Not a lot of profit."
Wang Tianxiao nodded.
Sincerely said: "Mr. Zhang, since you are so sensible, I might as well say something. I am not greedy. I can guarantee that what I said, you will gain far more than the 160,000 you are paying now. Maybe his profit is three, five, or even ten hundred and sixty thousand.
Therefore, I am here to explain the truth to you again very seriously. I hope that we can continue to cooperate for a long time based on mutual trust, and do not do any villainous things behind our backs. "
Zhang Wenyuan was a little anxious, just about to speak, Wang Tianxiao signaled him to wait until he finished speaking.
"You should be able to see that all I need is funds. If one day, you think that our cooperation has come to an end, you tell me in advance, we will get together and break up, and don't go to the opposite side..."
When Wang Tianxiao said this, he sighed deeply, with a bit of vicissitudes in his voice, and said bitterly: "As you said, I think we can try to get along as friends. There is so much money in the world, we can't make it all. There is so much money To a certain extent, it’s meaningless, how much can you spend in your life, isn’t it? We are alive, and we must be looking for the meaning of living in the end, and it is definitely not an indifferent money-making machine.”
Zhang Wenyuan saw a trace of special feelings from Wang Tianxiao. He has known Wang Tianxiao for more than half a year, and he has not seen him in this state.
I always feel that there are many unknown sadness and worries behind it.
At this moment, he felt a little moved in his heart, restrained his smile, and said sincerely: "Old Wang, don't think that if I come from such a family, I will be fine. It's not me. I grew up with my grandparents in the village. , for a long time no one knew whose child I was.
However, now that I think about it, I find that in the past 20 years or so, the one that is really worth remembering and feeling happy is when I was playing with my friends in the village.
I don't know why you look a bit vicissitudes, but I can guarantee that I said that I regard you as a friend, so I will never do unrighteous things to you. Even if we have differences in our future work, I will tell you face to face, and we will study and solve them together, instead of stumbling behind our backs. "
Wang Tianxiao looked at Zhang Wenyuan's sincere eyes, and remembered a book he had read that said that those who really achieved great things must have one or several character advantages that ordinary people do not have.
And these advantages are the biggest victory factors for them to overcome all competitions, defeat all opponents, and finally become masters and create a world.
There is no doubt that Zhang Wenyuan also has this potential.
Wang Tianxiao smiled slightly, "Okay, I believe in you, and you also believe in me. This is the basis of our cooperation. Regarding business matters, I don't want to go in the same direction as you. It's not that the direction I recommend to you is not profitable. On the contrary, the way I let you go will be more beneficial."
"However, I was born as a farmer, and I have always had a natural affection for the land, so my future development will always be based on the land, that is, mainly based on the development of agriculture.
I have analyzed the future potential of the two economic directions before, and the road suggested to you will have dividends for nearly 30 years, and my industry has no peak period, but there is no obvious low peak period, so each has its own advantages and disadvantages. "
"I understand that you are a person with feelings. I have seen this from you a long time ago, and this may be the reason why I have always liked to communicate with you and am willing to trust you."
"Well, now that the premise is finished, let's get down to business."
Wang Tianxiao took back the emotional things and started talking about the business.
"Mr. Zhang, it's like this. Recently, my mother-in-law's house is going to build a sheepfold. It's actually not that big. It can raise a small sheepfold with 180 sheep..."
"One hundred and eighty sheep, what do you do with so many sheep?"
"That's not the point," Wang Tianxiao glared at him angrily, and continued, "Since we need red bricks to make a sheepfold, guess what, there are only 70,000 to 80,000 sheets of bricks, and our brick and tile factory unexpectedly sold them all in a few days." Can't produce..."
"I see, you mean, let me take over the brick and tile factory, is it like taking over the prefab factory?"
Yo, I will draw inferences from one instance.
Wang Tianxiao nodded: "Well, taking over this brick and tile factory is the first step, or part of it. My idea is to get rid of this brick and tile factory first, and then adjust the personnel, equipment and facilities on the opposite side, so as to completely clean up the factory in advance. Revitalize."
"That's not easy. With the experience of the prefab factory, we can completely copy the experience. Anyway, we all open the same factory and manage the same people. The difference is that the things we make are different."
"The two factories are still different," Wang Tianxiao sounded the alarm to Zhang Wenyuan. "When you took over the prefabrication factory, it was already a private factory, so it is relatively easy to transform it. But the brick and tile factory is still owned by the public, and you have to start from the factory." It takes some energy to get this factory in the hands of the public."
"Is that so..."
"Well, what's more, people in private factories are different from people in public factories. People in private factories just want to make money. Because the factory doesn't make money, they don't have income, right. But public factories are different. Anyway, whether the factory is profitable or not, They can all get an income. After a long time in the world, they no longer have any sense of responsibility, and their skills are gradually forgotten.
Therefore, when we bought bricks, those people couldn’t produce them for a long time. It can be seen that the factory has been decayed to the limit. After you take over, the original people will either adjust or be laid off directly, and only those who were willing to work will stay. , which also takes a while to run in. If it is too hasty, it is easy to cause trouble, but if it is too slow, it will affect the progress of the next step. "
Zhang Wenyuan suddenly realized, and nodded: "It makes sense, you should be thoughtful, that's fine, I will find someone to follow up on this matter, but, speaking of which, I have a question to ask you."
"you say."
"A brick and tile factory has limited profits after all, isn't it? After all, once the brick and tile is used, it can last for a long time. It's not tofu, and people may need to change it every day. So where is our market? , where does the profit come from?"
"Well..."
Wang Tianxiao smiled mysteriously, "General order maintenance should be able to guarantee no loss, but the specific turning point will appear in the second half of the year. As for the turning point, can I keep it secret for the time being, because I still need to continue to observe."
"this…"
If Zhang Wenyuan didn't know Wang Tianxiao well, he really thought Wang Tianxiao was joking.
It's not that they agree to be good friends for a lifetime.
Treat each other honestly, how come you have a little secret in a blink of an eye and push me out of your heart.
"Haha, you don't believe me."
Wang Tianxiao asked with a smile.
Zhang Wenyuan saw Wang Tianxiao's confident look, endured it, and then nodded and said, "I believe you."
"Well, that's good. Besides, if you start talking now, it will take you a few months to completely stabilize the factory. There is no rush."
Now that the conversation is over, Zhang Wenyuan can't continue to say anything.
Then accept it.
"Okay, then you would say that the acquisition of a brick factory is the first step, what about the second step, what else is there to develop?"
"I'll think about it carefully before I tell you in detail. I haven't fully figured it out yet. Don't worry, just take it step by step."
Wang Tianxiao looked at Zhang Wenyuan with a confused face again, knowing that he hadn't finished speaking all at once, which made Zhang Wenyuan a little uncomfortable.
