Dressed as a male insect, but suffering

They said they were doing market research, but in fact, as illegal immigrants, there was not much work that Wu Yang and his colleagues could do... pitifully little.

In theory, illegal immigrants have no stable jobs, and the jobs they are allowed to do are mostly odd jobs involving manual labor.

Therefore, the wages of black households are usually paid daily or weekly, and rarely monthly. Their daily wages range from 200 to 300 to 500 to 600 yuan. If they are paid monthly, it is more stable, but the unit price will be lower, about 5,000 to 6,000 yuan a month.

At first, Wu Yang didn’t understand. In the interstellar age, the Zerg’s technology is so advanced that they can even fly into space, so why are there still mechanical physical work for the Zerg to do?

But later Wu Yang thought about it and figured out the key - cost.

Then Wu Yang investigated the market conditions in the construction industry and discovered that a fully automatic construction robot worm starts at a minimum of 800,000 star coins. Moreover, the robot worm is a consumable and the subsequent maintenance costs are not low.

Some large projects and large companies will of course use mechanical insects, but some small companies and small projects that are just starting out do not have the strength or much capital to invest, so they will choose cheaper black insects.

Huo Zixiao was a little confused, so he asked Wu Yang: "But after buying the mechanical insects, you can always use them. If you hire a female insect, don't you have to pay for it each time?"

Wu Yang looked at Huo Zixiao and said with a smile: "I already said it's because the cost is not enough."

"But they have all started their own companies. Can't they afford 800,000 star coins?" Huo Zixiao continued to ask.

Wu Yang sighed helplessly: "It's not that I can't afford it, it's just... um... the company needs to control costs. The initial investment is too large, and it will be very troublesome if we can't get the money back later."

Huo Zixiao shook his head blankly, indicating that he didn't understand.

Wu Yang thought for a while and gave Huo Zixiao an example: "For example, if I want to build a residential building to make money, do I have to spend some money to build the building first? These are my initial investments, but after the building is built, I can't get the money immediately."

"I have to do promotion, sales, and find customers to sell the building. And the customers I find may not be able to pay the full amount at once, so do I have to consider the issue of installments? If I use installments, what if the customer has problems later? What if the customer doesn't pay back? What if the customer dies in an accident?"

"These are all risks." Wu Yang said: "If I were a small company with limited cash flow, I would definitely find ways to save on initial investment. A female insect costs 6,000 yuan a month, and I can hire 10 of them for only 60,000 yuan. If the project is expected to be completed in three months, it will only cost 180,000 yuan. Compared with the 800,000 yuan robot insect, I can save a full 620,000 yuan."

"If I can't sell my house later, this $620,000 can save my company and prevent me from going bankrupt."

"Oh~" Huo Zixiao nodded in sudden realization: "So that's how it is."

"uh-huh."

Huo Zixiao frowned in embarrassment and asked worriedly, "But your body is so weak, can you do these jobs?"

"Ah?" Wu Yang looked at Huo Zixiao in confusion.

Huo Zixiao explained: "It's something like building a house. I've done it before. It's very tiring... I'm afraid you can't do it."

"Me?" Wu Yang pointed at himself, "When did I say I was going to build a house?"

"You said so much just now, don't you want to build a house?" Huo Zixiao asked.

Wu Yang was speechless for a moment. He almost wanted to explain to Huo Zixiao, but he couldn't. In the end, he could only explain palely: "I don't want to build a house. I have other ways."

While investigating the construction industry, Wu Yang discovered a business opportunity, which was the instability of mobile workers.

Businesses generally prefer to find illegal workers who can work steadily for a month or two, but some of the illegal workers here live too miserably and have no hope in their lives, so they are very casual at work.

When you have no money, you can find a part-time job. When you earn some money, you can go home and lie down.

For illegal households, daily settlement is obviously much more cost-effective than monthly settlement. Although monthly settlement is stable, the unit price earned is much lower than daily settlement.

As long as there are more day-knotting insects than monthly-knotting insects on the market, day-knotting insects will be the main force in the market, and merchants will still have to hire those day-knotting insects to work.

Wu Yang’s first idea was to break into the market here. As long as he could organize a group of insects with stable and long-term jobs, he could snatch job opportunities from the day-job insects.

As long as the initial operation is done properly, he can develop all the small business owners into his customers and let them look for odd jobs only from him.

As long as those bosses are won over, other bugs who originally wanted to make money by daily wages will inevitably change their strategies.

At that time, you can find a way to bring all the former day bugs under your command, or just become a headhunter in the middle, both of which are careers that can be developed.

"What?" Huo Zixiao approached Wu Yang and asked curiously.

Wu Yang pulled Huo Zixiao and said, "Weren't you the boss before? Go find the bugs. Find all the bugs you can gather now."

Huo Zixiao nodded: "Okay!"

The first step to complete the plan is to have enough insect hands, at least to be able to temporarily occupy the casual labor market.

It just so happened that Huo Zixiao was the boss before, and he had so many insects under him, he would definitely be able to help Wu Yang take the first step in building a business empire...

Half an hour later, Wu Yang fell into silence as he looked at the twelve insects in front of him. Aze was actually among these twelve insects.

No!

Huo Zixiao was such a big boss in the metallurgical factory before, but now he can only find twelve insects after he comes out?

Wu Yang looked at Huo Zixiao inquiringly, and Huo Zixiao explained: "Most of the insect cubs in the metallurgical plant before had family backgrounds, and most of them went back home after they got out."

Wu Yang blinked his eyes. As expected, Shen Hezhou was right. On the road to entrepreneurship, accidents come faster than money.

The whimsical Wu Yang had encountered his first Waterloo before he even started his business.

If there are only a few of these bugs, they cannot break the balance in the current casual labor market.

Moreover, the insects in Wu Yang's hands are all novices. If they rush into the market rashly, their work experience will definitely not be as good as those experienced day-knotting insects.

Without the bonus of insect numbers, stability alone may not be enough to gain a foothold here.

If we don’t have enough hands, we can’t occupy the market. If we can’t occupy the market, we can’t monopolize it. If we can’t monopolize it, then there’s no point in doing this thing.

Wu Yang rubbed his brows and had a headache. He had done the market research, but ignored his own strength.

Looking at the insects standing in a row in front of him and looking at him with anticipation, Wu Yang sighed and decided to gather the insects together first.

Wu Yang cleared his throat and said to the thirteen bugs in front of him, including Huo Zixiao, "We all came from the metallurgical plant and are friends who know each other well. I gathered everyone together today to discuss something with you."

"After we leave the metallurgical plant, we have to figure out our own livelihood. It's better to stick together than to fight alone. If we are together with more than a dozen bugs, the chances of success will be greater, right?"

Before Wu Yang finished speaking, one of the bug cubs stood up and said, "Third brother, you don't need to say these things. We followed the eldest brother in the factory before, and now that we are out, we will still follow the eldest brother. As long as the eldest brother and the third brother don't dislike us, we will always follow you."

Wu Yang knew this bug. It was the bug that Wu Yang arranged to beat Fan Yue when he was plotting against Huai Su. Its name was Jin Yi, and it was a BD level. It had a good relationship with bugs and was talkative.

I heard that Huo Zixiao had saved Jin Yi's life before, so Wu Yang could understand why Jin Yi followed Huo Zixiao, but...

"Third brother called me again?" Wu Yang asked, pointing at himself.

"Yes, Third Brother." Jin Yi said: "Brother Huo is our eldest brother, Brother Bian is our second brother, and you are our third brother."

"We've all heard about it. If it weren't for Third Brother's advice, we wouldn't have been able to get out of the metallurgical plant this time."

After Jin Yi finished speaking, the other insect cubs all echoed him.

"Yeah yeah."

"The eldest brother is strong, and the third brother is smart. If I follow them, I will definitely be fine."

"My life was given to me by my elder brother. I will follow him no matter what the conditions are."

"Yes, as long as Big Brother needs us, we are ready to risk our lives for him at any time!"

Wu Yang quickly interrupted the group of insects' lofty words and said, "You don't need to risk your life."

"Were we all black households before?" Wu Yang asked.

Another bug said, "Brother Jin Yi is not like that, but the rest of us are."

Wu Yang looked at Jin Yi curiously and asked him, "You have a household registration, why don't you go home?"

Jin Yi scratched the back of his head and smiled, "I was kicked out by my family and I can't go back."

Although Jin Yi was smiling, Wu Yang saw embarrassment and sadness in Jin Yi's eyes.

Wu Yang walked up to Jin Yi and patted his arm: "From now on, we are a family. We can get our identities and household registrations on our own one day."

Hearing this, Jin Yi looked up at Wu Yang in surprise.

Wu Yang smiled confidently and said to all the bug cubs, "Follow me. If nothing else, I will guarantee that every one of you bugs will..."

Wu Yang stretched out his hand and made the number six: "Six thousand guaranteed."
