Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Chapter 35: Take advantage of the trend

When I arrived at the county seat, it was already 12 noon.

Zhang Qianxiu went to Shudetang first.

The old Chinese doctor has already given medicine for decoction.

After Zhang Qianxiu drank the medicine, the old Chinese doctor gave Tuina a bit. The bruises on his body were indeed much better after two days of Tuina. The old Chinese doctor's medical skills are still good.

Huang Enquan looked at Zhang Qianxiu's upper body covered with bruises of blue and purple. There was almost no good spot, and his scalp was tingling.

Zhang Qian repaired these injuries, judging from his experience, in all likelihood, they were caused by fights. Falling injuries couldn't be the case, but it was impossible to guess what was going on.

Zhang Qianxiu did not say, Huang Enquan was not easy to ask. Huang Enquan was very curious about how Zhang Qianxiu, who had always been a good baby in the village, had such a serious injury from a fight. He often fights with people on the street and has never suffered such a serious injury.

Zhang Jiankang is much simpler, sitting on the side, without asking, just smiled silly.

Before leaving, the old Chinese doctor said: "When you go back in the afternoon, remember to change the medicine on your waist."

"I remember, thank you old gentleman!" Zhang Qianxiu replied.

Leaving Shudetang, Zhang Qianxiu took two people to dinner and ordered a small fried pork, a green vegetable and an egg soup.

Zhang Qianxiu still didn't have much appetite, so he ate a bowl of rice and drank a little soup.

It was Zhang Jiankang, who had eaten five bowls of rice, and the boss eventually charged Zhang Qianxiu two cents for his meal.

After dinner, Zhang Qianxiu hurried to set up a stall.

Before it was set up for a while, four or five middle-aged men came over and said, "No stalls are allowed here, go!"

There are many people here, and none of these people rushed, so they just stared at Zhang Qianxiu.

Huang En was full of temper, and said unconvinced: "So many people are setting up a stall, why not let us do it?"

The faces of several men were not good at first, Huang Enquan talked back, their faces became more and more gloomy, and the leader sneered: "Lao Tzu belongs to the market management department. This area is controlled by the market. Lao Tzu said that if you can't show it, you can't show it. ,roll!"

Huang Enquan still wants to argue, Zhang Qianxiu has already pulled him.

Nowadays, agricultural taxes are heavy, and most people don't have extra grain. Ordinary farmers sell tens or even dozens of catties of rice, and that's what they squeezed out of their teeth.

Zhang Qianxiu was only a few hundred catties this time. It was not normal at first sight. In all likelihood, he was a hawker.

Zhang Qianxiu took out a packet of Hongta Mountain from his body.

He usually brings two packs, one pack of Hongtashan, this cigarette is ten yuan a pack, and now it is absolutely high-end cigarette; the other pack is two cents of wild tea, produced by the county cigarette factory.

Zhang Qianxiu smiled and handed a cigarette to a few market administrators: "Several leaders, I'm really embarrassed, smoke first."

Seeing that it was Hongta Mountain, the middle-aged man in the lead took it, his face lightened a little: "It's useless if you pass us cigarettes. We are working. Management asks us to catch up. If you don't leave, we will be scolded. ."

After Zhang Qianxiu sent cigarettes, he smiled and said: "We understand this, let's not hide from the leader, we are in the rice business, and we also know the rules. We just came today, and we are planning to rent a stall in it."

The leading middle-aged man gave Zhang Qianxiu a surprised look. He drove a lot of people. Those vendors pretended to be pitiful, claiming that they would sell a little occasionally and not often. Zhang Qianxiu directly admitted.

Moreover, Zhang Qianxiu seemed to be young. He thought that Zhang Qianxiu didn't understand people's worldliness, didn't know how to turn, and was honest, so he just said it directly.

Moreover, Zhang Qianxiu was not very old, and his son was about the same age, so he had a good impression of Zhang Qianxiu in his heart.

The leading middle-aged man said: "If you want to rent a shop inside, there is no good place. There are still two shops in the innermost area. They are too close to the inside. No one wants them. After renting out a few times, it won’t last long. ."

Most people don't directly say that if you rent a shop and lose money, you don't care about his business. He just works in the market management office.

Zhang Qianxiu had seen it when he helped people buy goods, and smiled and asked, "Leader, this is my first time doing business, and I don't have any acquaintances. How much is the store here for a month?"

The middle-aged man in the lead looked at Zhang Qianxiu for a while and said, "Young man, I see you are on the road, and the people are sincere. It is not easy to come out at a young age to ask for a life. I will tell you the truth. You rented the shop too. At a loss, I suggest you go to the open-air market in front of you to set up and sell it. As long as you stay away from the gangsters, you can make some money.

Zhang Qianxiu originally wanted to go to the management office after selling out today's rice, but he didn't expect the management office to crack down on the hawkers so severely. It was only the next day that people were arranged to rush, so he took advantage of the trend and proposed renting the store, and then went to have a look!

Zhang Qianxiu said: "Leader, I think doing business depends on integrity and skill. It is not a matter of setting up stalls everywhere. Or you will take me to see the store. If it is suitable, I will rent it. If it is not suitable, we will leave immediately. , Don't make you embarrassed."

Seeing Zhang Qianxiu's insistence, the middle-aged man in the lead didn't say much: "Let's do it! But I suggest you don't rent it. The location of the place is really bad."

"It's okay, just take a look!" Zhang Qianxiu said: "By the way, I don't know what the leader is called?"

The middle-aged man said, "My name is Wei Hongguo."

After Wei Hongguo entered the market, there were two food and oil sellers at the door of the market, and Zhang Qianxiu also sold rice to them.

Going further inside, there is another shop that sells grain and oil in the entire county town. There is only one at the end of the county town. The business is not very good. The residents around will buy it because they are close to each other.

Go straight to the innermost corner of the market, to the innermost corner, the two facades are close together, this place is dry, but it is too biased here.

The place with the largest traffic in the vegetable market is usually on the side where vegetables and pork are sold.

The vegetable stall is opposite. This corner sells beef and mutton. There are few people who buy beef and mutton, so basically no one comes to it.

The business in the surrounding shops is not very good.

Wei Hongguo pointed to the two facades: "Only these two, I don't have the key here, but the layout inside is the same as those on the side."

Zhang Qianxiu glanced at the storefront next door. It was estimated to be thirty to forty square meters, about five meters wide and eight meters deep.

Zhang Qianxiu only intends to sell rice. He didn't want to buy oil, flour or the like. Such a wide area is more than enough.

Zhang Qianxiu is not satisfied with this place, but he doesn't think there is anything bad about this place.

Current merchants don't actually have many marketing methods. Although Zhang Qianxiu didn't have a marketing background, he could use a few of those methods in later generations. He didn't dare to beat all his opponents, but he could lock in a lot of customers.

Zhang Qianxiu asked again: "Leader, what's the rent for these two rooms?"

Seeing that Zhang Qian Xiuzhen really wanted it, Wei Hongguo said, "It's useless to ask me. I'm just an employee. You have to go up and ask the director. He is in charge of renting the stalls here."

Zhang Qianxiu knows very well that Wei Hongguo must know how much the rent is here, and he can be regarded as an internal employee. If he helps to say a few good things, maybe the rent can be less.

Zhang Qianxiu took out the cigarette, gave it another round, and said to Wei Hongguo: "Leader, how much is the rent of the next door?"

Wei Hongguo hesitated and said, "It's nothing to tell you. The two shops are next to one hundred and forty-one a month, one is one hundred and sixteen outside, and one is one hundred and eighth outside, and the rest are all two. Hundred, there is a row of two hundred and two on the vegetable side, and the four rooms at the entrance are two hundred and six a month."

"The two innermost stores here are rented out for one month for one hundred and two."

Hearing 120, Zhang Qianxiu felt that the rent was still very cheap, and he could earn it back by just selling it.

Zhang Qianxiu approached Wei Hongguo and said, "Leader, you work here. Can you help tell the director, give us a bit cheaper?"

Although Wei Hongguo has a good impression of Zhang Qianxiu, he is not yet overwhelmed with kindness.

Just about to refuse, I felt Zhang Qianxiu stuffed something in his hands.

Looking down, it was two ten dollars.

Twenty yuan is a lot of money, worthy of his one week's salary.

"You help me bargain, no matter how much cheaper, I will give you double red envelopes afterwards! Even if there are a lot of points, these will give you cigarettes." Zhang Qianxiu whispered.

Wei Hongguo took the money with a nonchalant expression and looked back at the other people. No one noticed their small actions. He deliberately said loudly, "Young man, I told you before. The location is not good. If you really want to rent, see. It’s not easy for you. I will bargain with the director for you. Then you can buy us a few cigarettes."

Zhang Qianxiu immediately smiled and said: "No problem, a few leaders, you can help and say good things, no matter whether you succeed or not, you will not treat them badly."

When Wei Hongguo saw Zhang Qianxiu on the road, regardless of whether Zhang Qianxiu would lose the store, he had already said it anyway, and he thought about it, and said, "After a while, you will say that you and my son are classmates, and my son is as old as you. It's almost the same, you're only 16 or 7 years old, right?

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: "Yes, I am sixteen this year and graduated from the third year of this year."

"That happens. My son also graduated from the third year of junior high school. He was studying at Chen Mu Middle School. You remembered it." Wei Hongguo thought for a while and said, "I have to give the director a gift. You can buy a cigarette, ten yuan. That's it."

Zhang Qianxiu immediately responded: "Okay, I'll buy it right away."
