The Era of Hard Work

Chapter 496: Unable to ask for

   Chapter 496

  Qingzhao County, railway station.

  In the shabby greenhouse and station hall, the white ceiling has not been maintained for many years, and the upper area is gray and black, like the smoke outlet of the back kitchen of a small restaurant, with a thick layer.

  Most of the windows, doors and windows are broken. The Houzhan Hall looks closed, but in fact it has long since become open. The cold wind from the north in the end of winter rolled in, making a whimper.

  Liu Zaizhao wrapped his down jacket tightly, stood at the ticket gate with his sister, and glanced back at Liu Mingquan, who was going to buy snacks, unable to hide his surprise.

   It was really incredible. Not only did my father borrow the car and take them to the station in person, but also let the sisters wait and buy snacks for my sister to eat in the car.

  Looking through the half-paned window, the sun that just climbed into the sky was in the east, that's right.

   This year, things are getting worse and worse.

   Liu Linlin pulled her sister: "Why is this expression on?"

   Liu Zaizhao has a good relationship with his sister since he was a child. What do you say: "Our father is getting more and more wrong."

"Isn't it good?" Liu Linlin looked at her father who was crowding in front of the canteen to buy things, and she felt a little sour in her heart. Ever since she was seven or eight years old, she had wanted to have such a loving father, but it was never available. I'm in my early twenties, but...

   said that, this is her biological father.

   Seeing Liu Mingquan squeeze into the small shop and come out with a convenient bag, Liu Linlin's eyes suddenly became wet.

  Things that are hoped for and cannot be obtained, suddenly appeared this New Year, and there is a sense of unreality.

   But behind the unreality, is the expectation that a girl dreams of.

   is about to leave home and embark on the road of studying again. Liu Linlin has mixed feelings, memories, surprises, heartbreaks, but more of it is gratification.

   As long as you can do this in the future, what's not to be satisfied with?

  Liu Mingquan came over with a large convenient bag and handed it to Liu Linlin, with a bit of stiffness in his words: "Here, take it with you to eat on the road."

   Liu Linlin wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say for a while.

  I haven’t experienced this kind of thing since I was a child, and I don’t know how to deal with it.

  People are changing with the environment. The earth-shaking changes in the neighboring village of Lujia Village have brought a huge impact on Liu Mingquan, and his mind gradually deepened: "Go and study hard, you will graduate soon, learn more skills."

   "Yes." Liu Linlin finally responded.

Glancing at his daughter, who can't beat a fart with three slaps, Liu Mingquan added, "Is it an internship in the second half of next year? Come back when you can, as you can see, Qingzhao has a university town, and construction is going on everywhere. There's always a place for you."

   Liu made another effort and quietly tugged at her sister's sleeves, and finally passed the exam, what are you doing when you come back?

   But the weight of home and the yearning for home are something that this little girl who has never left Qingzhao in college is hard to feel at present.

  Liu Mingquan waved his hand: "Get on the train, pay more attention to yourself."

   This Chinese New Year, this seemingly changed Liu Mingquan finally aroused her daughter's thoughts. She looked down at the snacks in the convenience bag, pursed her lips, and said softly, "Dad, I'll be back."

  Liu Mingquan smiled, with a very gratified smile.

   "Let's go."

   After saying this, Liu Mingquan turned around and walked outside the waiting room.

   Looking at his father's back hand, Liu Linlin said, "You ride slower."

  Liu again grabbed his sister's hand: "You're stupid, you finally passed the exam, what are you doing here again?"

   "I promised my dad." Liu Linlin said.

  Liu Zaizhao recalled Liu Linlin's entrance banquet.

  Liu Linlin whispered to herself: "It's okay to come back, there are classmates and friends everywhere..."

   Liu Mingquan in front of him turned his head and shouted at Liu again, "What are you doing? Don't hurry up."

"coming."

  Liu Zaizhao gave the bag in his hand to his sister and hurriedly caught up with his father in front.

   After leaving the train station, he boarded a Po Xiali. Liu Mingquan drove away without saying a word.

  Liu Zaizhao did not dare to speak, and even panted carefully. In her eyes, her father was still the same father.

  Liu Linlin checked that it was still early, carrying the convenience bag in her hand, and opened the ticket gate with her.

  Suddenly, firecrackers sounded outside, as if it was right across from the train station. I turned around to look, and saw the salute blasting smoke in the air, and the sound of bang came later.

  Although I can't see it clearly, I saw it when I came here. On the opposite side of the high-rise shop on the 12th floor, there is a Lu's hot pot restaurant that opened today.

  Liu Linlin retracted her gaze. Lv Dong was the leader of Qingzhao catering industry last year. Hearing Yuan Jing mentioned it, it seems to be the largest chain catering company in Quannan.

  Quannan is the largest, which means that it can be counted in the whole province.

   Approaching the ticket gate, Liu Linlin picked up her luggage and convenience bag, found the public telephone of the canteen, and dialed a mobile number.

"Hello……"

   There seems to be a problem with the receiver of the public telephone, and the voice that comes out is slightly changed, but Liu Linlin can hear it, it is Lu Dong's voice.

   "It's me, Liu Linlin."

   The phone has a caller ID, and Lu Dong asked, "School hasn't started yet?"

   "Let's go now." Liu Linlin didn't say much, but her words were short: "At the train station."

   The voice in the receiver was slightly apologetic and said, "The first store in Pengcheng is open. I am in Pengcheng, so I can't see you off."

  Liu Linlin whispered, "Good luck with the opening."

The    side said: "The journey is smooth."

   As soon as these words came out, the phone chat died instantly. Liu Linlin slowly hung up the phone, paid the money, picked up her luggage, checked the ticket and entered the station.

  …………

  Quannan, Huaixi District, inside a small factory.

  Wang Xuming, who put on glasses, shook hands with everyone one by one, and went to open the door for them in person. It was only when he was sent to the factory gate that he was really relieved.

   From Lv Dong's recommendation, to the real connection with Guangmei Electric, to the inspection of Guangmei Electric's factory, more than half a month before and after, the battle that really decided Jiuyang to expand its sales channels was finally won.

  Wang Xuming's thinking is also changing. Without sufficient sales channels, no matter how good the product quality and advanced technology are, it will not reach consumers. Without consumers, the products developed and produced by Jiuyang cannot be realized, so how can we study new products?

   walked back, and someone next to him followed: "Mr. Wang, there are sales channels, but it takes time for sales and payment, and we need a new factory here..."

   Wang Xuming said: "You don't have to worry about the funds, I can find investors."

   That person is also a shareholder and reminded: "It's best to introduce investment selectively, so that the company can get more help with this financing!"

  Wang Xuming smiled: "Old Zhu, don't worry, the one who only pays is the last choice."

When I had dinner with Mu Kun before, Mu Kun asked about the expansion of Jiuyang Financing. Originally, Wang Xuming thought that Mu Kun intends to continue investing. After asking, he found out that the investor was someone else, although Mu Kun did not say so for the time being. Someone, but telling him that the other party can bring great help to the development of Jiuyang.

Back at the office, Wang Xuming called Lu Dong first: "Mr. Lu, thank you so much, do you have time today, I'll call Mu Kun, let's get together? You are not in Quannan, are you on a business trip? I understand Now, let's meet again when you come back! It's nothing, Guangmei Electric has negotiated it, you always have to give me a chance to express my gratitude."

   After talking for a while, Wang Xuming took the initiative to end the call after hearing the noise of people over there.

   After reaching an agreement with Guangmei Electrical Appliances, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although we can only enter the Guangmei store in Taidong in the early stage, Taidong Guangmei is expanding rapidly, and the number of its stores in Taidong is almost equal to Sanlian Home Appliances.

   As for the market, Guangmei Electric has grabbed half of Sanlian Home Appliances.

   For Jiuyang, who is just starting out, being able to enter the Guangmei electrical store is a step ***.

  Two days later, Jiuyang Small Appliance Company officially signed an entry agreement with Guangmei Electric, and the first batch of electric soymilk machines entered the Guangmei Electric store immediately.

   Of course, for the nine sheep of this era, there is still a long way to go in the future.

   A week later, Jiuyang Company entrusted a company under the Mu family to finance externally.

  One month after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Lu Dong basically ran alternately between Quannan and other places. Like Du Xiaobing, he was busy with the opening of Lu's Catering Company in various places outside the province.

   Even the 21st birthday was given to him by Song Na who ran from Quannan to Zhengzhou.

   It was the end of March on the Gregorian calendar when I received the news from Mu Kun that Jiuyang was going to raise funds.

   Lu Dong and Song Na, who was developing a market in Hefei, rushed back to Quannan.

   After meeting with Lv Jianwu, the eighth uncle who worked in Quannan, the two sides began to negotiate financing.

   As we all know, the investment of many companies involves more than just funds, and the investment threshold is not uncommon.

   Jiuyang is not the kind of small company that is poor and white.

   However, Wang Xuming and Jiuyang Small Appliances do not reject Lv Dong's investment, and they are quite welcome.

   Lv Dong and Lv's Catering have already become well-known in Quannan, and they are recognized as capable and powerful people in the Quannan business district. Just helping Jiuyang enter Guangmei Electric Appliances has shown.

   Along with Lv Dong’s investment, Jiuyang may also enter Ginza and RT-Mart supermarkets. These are Lv’s Catering’s cooperative enterprises and can become a bridge of communication.

   Then there is Lu Dong's Lu's Catering Company.

Jiuyang's current products are mainly soymilk machines and induction cookers, but the future plan is to become a professional kitchen appliance company. If you want to build a leading small home appliance company in China, the products will be diversified in the future. It is impossible to rely on soymilk machines alone. Walk on one leg.

With the opening of more and more stores of Lu's Catering, the purchase of various kitchen utensils is also increasing. Anyone with vision can see that after the scale of Lu's Catering has truly grown, this customer alone will be able to bring Massive orders.

   Not to mention the induction cooker of other hot pot restaurants, Jiuyang and Wang Xuming are drooling.

   In addition, Lv Dong can also help Jiuyang Company enter the university town to establish a branch.

   Investors like   , Jiuyang Company can’t ask for it.

  In 1998, six shareholders, including Wang Xuming and Mu Kun, jointly invested 10 million yuan to re-register Jiuyang Small Appliance Company. After nearly three years of development, its share capital has already doubled several times.

  Many people or companies, such as Sanlian Home Appliances, are not optimistic about the future of Jiuyang, but some people also think that Jiuyang has a bright future.

   This time, not only Lu Dong, but also three other investors including Mu Kun invested in this financing and share expansion.

  Other investors are also not easy.

   After several days of tug-of-war negotiations, Lu Dong obtained a 5% stake in Jiuyang with an investment of 4 million yuan.

   Jiuyang is in Quannan, and Lu Dong's base is also in Quannan, so there is basically no need to worry about Jiuyang and Wang Xuming kicking him out.
