1987: Sleepless Tonight

It was late at night, and the two of them didn't speak for a long time.

Suddenly, the stacked pillows arched upwards.

Su Min exclaimed, "Why did your hand come over here? You have a baby, you can't mess around. Director Liu also said that it was the most dangerous three months ago, and it will be a little more stable after three months. looking at you."

She loves the baby in her belly, and also loves her man.

"I'll just touch my baby and do nothing else." Lu Hao put his hand on her stomach.

"You're just joking. The baby hasn't grown up yet, but it's grown up. How can you tell?" Su Min said with a smile.

My own man sometimes talks like a child.

"You and the little widow have a discussion, and you have to be prepared." Lu Hao said suddenly.

discuss?

be prepared?

Su Min was a little puzzled, and moved her body slightly, "What are you discussing? What preparations are you going to make?"

She didn't understand what Lu Hao meant.

"The business of the breakfast shop is very good, and now it has a little reputation. It is time to open a branch, and we need to make preparations for this." Lu Hao said.

"Opening a branch so soon?" Su Min was a little surprised.

She really wasn't ready yet.

In the past, I thought it was good to have an income. Later, I thought it was enough to have a stable job. Later, when I opened a shop, I thought that I would be satisfied without losing money. Until now, the business of the breakfast shop has been maintained very well. I thought that if I could go on like this forever, I would be content.

Unexpectedly, suddenly, my man said that he was going to open a branch.

She was really at a loss.

"It's not too soon." Lu Hao said, "The breakfast shop has been around for a while now, and there is an opportunity right now, so I must seize it. If I don't catch it this time, it may cost money to open a branch later. More time and energy."

"Is there a chance now?" Su Min held his man's hand on his stomach, "Is it related to your dinner with Li Guangcai and Director Fu of the Xujiapeng Grain Store tomorrow?"

His hand was dishonest, and his index finger kept swipe there.

Very itchy.

"You're quite smart. They say you've been pregnant for three years. It seems my wife is getting smarter the more she gets pregnant." Lu Hao nodded, "That's right, it has something to do with tomorrow's meal."

"Director Fu of the Xujiapeng Grain Store wants me to give some suggestions for the development of the Grain Store. There are three to four hundred grain stores in Jiangcheng, which are scattered in various places in Jiangcheng, and they are surrounded by residential areas. The breakfast shop is aimed at They are also residents, so it would be great if we could change the food store into a breakfast store." Lu Hao said, "With a branch store, there are also customers. It is much more convenient than going to the store and finding the location by ourselves."

How can there be a free lunch in the world?

Fu Zhixiang wanted to find him and get some suggestions on the development of the grain store, so that he could use it as a political achievement and climb higher, but he was thinking about how to get more benefits from it?

The abacus rattled.

"The grain store is a state-run unit, can we take it down?" Su Min asked.

"The vegetable market is still a state-owned unit, isn't the beverage factory also a state-owned unit?" Lu Hao laughed, "The times are different, and the grain stores can't continue to develop. There are so many stores, and they are still open. If someone is willing to rent, the grain The bureau is definitely willing to rent it out, of course, it would be best if the property rights can be bought over.”

According to the normal historical trajectory, around 2000, the development of grain stores almost came to an end.

In 2000, the grain purchase and sales enterprises in the entire Jiangcheng City implemented the "three reductions and one improvement" reform of "reducing stoves, reducing personnel, reducing officials, and improving the operating mechanism". Two mates are equipped with business leaders, reducing the number of business leaders, and streamlining employees by buying out seniority and diverting personnel to industrial and trade enterprises.

年底，全市独立核算购销企业由1999年的37个减为18个，企业领导人数由134人减至66人。

What is a grain purchase and sale enterprise?

To put it bluntly, it is engaged in the business of buying and selling grain. The enterprises or departments under the Grain Bureau, such as the wholesale department, storage and transportation stations, grain stations and grain stores, are all grain buying and selling enterprises, or their subordinate business outlets.

This kind of situation didn't just happen in Jiangcheng, it was like this all over the country. From cities to rural areas, no place could avoid it. The difference was only the degree of severity.

In rural areas, many grain stations have been converted into village committees, or places like rural cultural and artistic activity centers. Grain stores and grain stations have also become products of memories.

"Then I'll talk to Jiaojiao about it tomorrow." Su Min said.

"Don't be in a hurry." Lu Hao said, "At dinner tomorrow, I will definitely propose to Li Guangcai and Fu Zhixiang to rent out the storefront of the grain store, but they definitely can't decide on this matter, and they have to report it. In a few days, you two can discuss more, think about how to open the branch and where to open the branch."

"And up to now, there are only three people in Nini's breakfast shop. To open a branch, you must recruit people. How to recruit, who to recruit, and what to do after recruiting, these can be considered first."

With so many grain stores, it is impossible to rent or buy all of them, but no matter what, they will definitely make some money after all, and they can bite off another piece of fat from the state-owned units.

And Lu Hao is not worried that his proposal will not be accepted, because according to the historical trajectory, the grain store has indeed made reforms on the issue of property rights, adopting forms such as leasing and property rights changes.

What he proposed was just to speed up the determination of some leaders to implement the reform ahead of schedule.

And he just took advantage of this opportunity to reap some benefits.

At around nine o'clock the next morning, Lu Hao drove to the Xujiapeng Grain Store, picked up Fu Zhixiang, then went to the Qiaokou District Grain Bureau, picked up Li Guangcai, and the three went to Yujin Restaurant together.

After ordering a good dish, I ordered a bottle of Baiyunbian.

"I invite Boss Lu and Director Li to dinner. How can I drink Baiyunbian? I have to go to Moutai. Does your store have Moutai?" Fu Zhixiang asked the waiter who hadn't left yet.

The dishes were ordered by Lu Hao, and Bai Yunbian was also ordered by Lu Hao.

Fu Zhixiang said that he came to treat this meal, but a bottle of Moutai cost 135 yuan. Although he is the person in charge of the grain store, even if he usually has some opportunities to make money, 135 yuan is not a lot to him.

Based on this consideration, Lu Hao didn't order Maotai, but asked for Baiyunbian, which was very much for Fu Zhixiang's consideration, but now Fu Zhixiang ordered Maotai himself.

"Let's have a casual meal, mainly for chatting, so we don't need Moutai." Lu Hao said.

"Baiyunbian is pretty good." Li Guangcai also persuaded.

"Then how can it work? I must order Moutai. I want to learn from Boss Lu for today's meal, and I have to ask Director Li for advice. The value of this meal is much more expensive than Moutai. You must have Moutai to reflect I value it." Fu Zhixiang said, "Even if I got an IOU, I still have to invite the two of you to drink Moutai."
