Reborn to Strive

Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan's company is called Huaguang. At that time, they thought of a lot of names and chose them for a long time. In the end, they felt that "Huaguang" was fluent and easy to remember, and even elementary school students in the first and second grades knew these two words. how nice

Huaguang does not have an office for the time being, but there is a warehouse, which Liang's father vacated for them.

But now the warehouse is empty, Liang Qinxuan and Guan Baiyu are nestling in the small workshop that does OEM for them every day.

This is the first product of their company, the quality must not be a problem, and in the absence of employees, they can only watch by themselves.

The small workshop is opened in a rural self-built house, and the people working in it use sewing machines, which are also old-fashioned.

In the 80s, sewing machines were one of the big purchases for local weddings. For a few years, all families with decent family conditions would buy sewing machines and bicycles when they got married.

Bicycles are still available to everyone, but sewing machines... Many people don't use them at all, and they are left in the corner of the house, and they are immediately dusted.

Because of this, most of the men and women working in the workshops now bring their own sewing machines.

That's right, man.

In Changxi City, light industry has developed better than heavy industry. Factories often recruit female workers, and it is difficult for men to find jobs.

This kind of small workshop pays money by piece, not limited to men and women, naturally there are men who are willing to do it.

The small workshop is run by a husband and wife. The wife is responsible for receiving business and collecting money, the husband does things like moving things and delivering goods, and their parents cook for the workers at home and do some tidying up. The whole family is very busy.

Many private enterprises rely on their own family members to build up little by little.

There was a door in the middle of the two main rooms of the family, and one side was occupied by more than a dozen workers, while some goods were placed on the other side, and there were two tables.

One of these two tables is used for eating, and the other is a tea table for workers to drink tea with a kettle of tea on it.

Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan were sitting at the dining table, doing their homework together...

"Guan Baiyu, you haven't written your winter homework yet?" Liang Qinxuan was surprised.

Guan Baiyu said: "What's so strange about this?"

"Don't you like to do questions very much? Why don't you do it after such a long winter vacation?"

"I'm going to my brother's hometown." "Isn't that in the mountains? You can't even watch TV in the mountains, and you can't do your homework?"

Guan Baiyu glanced at Liang Qinxuan: "Without the TV, are you willing to do your homework? Nothing else fun?"

"Of course there is, but I thought you wouldn't play..."

Guan Baiyu ignored him.

Of course he won't play, he wants to accompany his brother.

But on a rare day, when his brother and he were fine and could get along, he did his homework only when he was crazy.

He never brought his homework to Shi Zhen's hometown!

Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan were immersed in their homework.

Liang Qinxuan actually had a hard time this winter vacation - he had to make up lessons every day.

Because of this, he also didn't do his winter homework.

"You don't need to learn these things to start a company, do you? Why do I have to learn so much?" Liang Qinxuan was a little unhappy, "My dad doesn't understand these things, so he can still start a big company!" Although his dad was a teacher, the science knowledge they learned in high school , his dad can't understand it anymore!

"You want to open a company bigger than your father, of course you have to study!" Guan Baiyu did not hesitate, "And...the times are changing so fast, are you sure you don't want to go out and have a look?"

In recent years, many upstarts have emerged in Changxi City, and many people have made their fortunes by doing business.

Because of this, some remarks such as reading is useless are also rampant.

Especially those bosses who have made money without reading a book like to say that.

However, Shi Zhen always sneered at these things, and often told Guan Baiyu that reading is very important. Guan Baiyu always listened to Shi Zhen, so naturally he persistently urged Liang Qinxuan to study.

Liang Qinxuan has a lazy personality, it's not that he really doesn't want to study, it's just... his personality, he has to be watched and forced to study hard.

For example, he used to not live on campus, so he couldn’t control himself to play when he returned home. Now that he lives on campus, he goes to evening self-study with other students, so he learns along with him.

The two learned to learn, and at noon, the boss's parents called the workers to get food.

Food is provided here, but the food is not very good. For example, today, each person gets a bowl of braised radish with a piece of bacon on top. Go to the sewing machine and eat it.

Most people are not picky eaters, and there are some who don’t eat radishes or fatty bacon, so they give the vegetables to others, and they take out fermented bean curd or pickled vegetables, and eat them with rice.

Liang Qinxuan and Guan Baiyu's meals were better than theirs. They ate with the boss's family. On the table was a bowl of braised radishes, a bowl of fried vegetables, a bowl of bacon, and a fried egg with garlic leaves.

The most important thing is that the bacon the workers eat is fatter pork belly, while the pork belly here is thinner, and the ribs on the pork belly are also here!

The ribs were not cut off, two very long ones, Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan each had one, and it was very delicious to eat, that's fine, they were even praised by the proprietress.

The proprietress, the proprietress, also has a child. The child is mischievous and does not like to study, and refuses to take the initiative to do homework at home. They saw Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan who took the initiative to do their homework. Can they boast?

After eating, they began to check the quality of the pencil cases made in the morning and count them at the same time.

When checking, if you see wire ends or something, you can cut them off with scissors.

Most of the pencil cases are qualified, and a few are unqualified, so they have to be disassembled and resewn. One of them made a lot of products, but there were many unqualified products. It’s also about quality, if you make it like this, no one wants it! Next time if you are so perfunctory, don’t come to me!”

Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan stayed here until 04:30 in the afternoon before returning home.

When Guan Baiyu returned home, it was already dark.

Today is the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.

Shi Zhen built a house for Fang Changming, and agreed to start work tomorrow, in order to celebrate the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

However, he has not been idle these few days. In addition to settling the people he brought out of the village, Shi Zhen has been teaching them how to build a house.

Today, Shi Xingchao brought his family here.

Shi Zhen and the others came out on the seventh day of the lunar new year, but Shi Xing delayed them for a few days, and finally arrived today.

The house that Shi Xingchao rented to his family was not far from Guan Jianguo, and Shi Zhen went to help clean it up today.

Seeing Guan Baiyu come back, Shi Zhen immediately said: "Xiao Yu, you are finally back, let's go, come with me to uncle's house for dinner."

Shi Zhen helped and had dinner at Shi Dashan's house. Tomorrow night, all of them will go to Shi Dalin's for dinner.

During the meal, the big guys also chatted about what Shi Dashan's family will do next.Shi Zhen suggested that Shi Dashan follow Shi Dalin and set up a stall for a few days to see the situation. As for Shi Xingchao's younger sister and Shi Dashan's wife, they can walk around and get familiar with the environment here while embroidering sweaters.

In two days, new clothes will arrive from the sweater factory.

In addition, Shi Zhen also mentioned three hundred for Shi Xingchao's salary.

Shi Xingchao was a little embarrassed: "I'm just looking after you, and I can also embroider sweaters by myself. Two hundred is a lot. Why do you pay back three hundred?"

"Because I won't feed you in the future." Shi Zhen laughed.He previously paid Shi Xingchao two hundred a month's salary because he included room and board, but now that he doesn't include room and board, he must pay more.

What's more... At the beginning of this year, many factories have raised wages for workers.

In this era, prices are rising rapidly, and everyone's wages are also rising rapidly. It is normal for monthly wages to increase by [-] a year.

While talking, Shi Xingchao suddenly said: "By the way, Shi Zhen, we came back this time, and saw Shi Zhiqiang and the others in the provincial capital."

"Are they in the provincial capital?" Shi Zhen asked.

"Yes, they are in the provincial capital and live at the bus station with their luggage. They probably haven't found a job yet," Shi Xing said.

Shi Zhen was not surprised.

Now I don’t have mobile phones, and I don’t have all kinds of information everywhere. It’s not so easy to find a job. It’s normal to find a job when I first came out.

However, the changes have been rapid in the past few years. If you really look for it with your heart, you will definitely find a job.

They develop in the provincial capital, maybe they can develop well.

Of course that has nothing to do with him, as long as he takes care of himself.

The next day, Shi Zhen took people to Fang Changming's foundation to help Fang Changming dig the foundation and prepare to build a house.

Fang Changming finally decided to build a two-story small villa, mainly chic.The focus of this house is on the design, and it is easy to build.

Shi Zhen led his staff to start work in full swing, and even agreed with a nearby farm family that when he came to buy vegetables in the future, they would help him do it, and he would pay them a little processing fee.

He doesn't have many workers now, and the cost of hiring someone to cook for them is too high, so it's more cost-effective to pay some processing fees for them to do it.

Shi Zhen invited an old lady in her 60s. He paid one hundred a month, and the old lady was willing to help cook the lunch, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, and the old lady prepared it herself.

Of course, Shi Zhen will also pay attention to some points, such as buying meat, directly ask the butcher to cut up pieces for him, counting one piece for each person, so as to avoid too much meat being stolen by the old lady.

It's not that Shi Zhen is thinking about others maliciously, but... This is basically something that will definitely happen.

He cooks for others himself, but he can't guarantee that he won't steal it.

But occasionally I eat cheap chicken skeletons or something, and the old lady deducts a little, and it's nothing.

Shizhen often buys vegetables and rice from the old lady, which is cheaper.

After working for a few days, the people who came out of the village with Shi Zhen all learned how to build walls, how to sieve sand, how to mix cement, and so on.

Shi Zhen told them that in the first month, because they didn't know many jobs, he would teach them all, and he would pay them two hundred. From the second month onwards, they would be paid three hundred a month, and after completing a job Well, he gave them bonuses, and the bonuses depended on how well they did their jobs.

The salary is too high for Shi Zhen to bear.

None of the six people had any objections. Although their income was a little less than that of Shi Dalin and Zhao Qiujuan, this was normal!

Moreover, Shi Zhen provided a meal at noon, and the six of them cooked breakfast and dinner together, which didn't cost much...they could still save a lot of money!

One day, Shi Zhen and the others were building a wall when Fang Changming came.

"Brother Fang, are you here?" Shi Zhen, who was working, put down his work, and Fang Changming said.

Fang Changming took a look, and found that the outline of his house had come out.

Shi Zhen built this house really fast!

Fang Changming said: "My house, you built it so quickly, there will be no problems, right?"

"How could it be?" Shi Zhen said, "Brother Fang, the cement used is not good enough to cause problems. Our cement is not ambiguous at all...Did someone tell you something?"

Fang Changming doesn't take care of things very much, and usually comes over every evening to have a look. There must be a reason for asking this suddenly.

Fang Changming said: "Didn't my brother build the house with me? He hired the mason surnamed Zhang who worked with you before. They want to build a three-story building that you built before... He and I Said."

Shi Zhen: "..." Shi Zhen knew about the fact that Fang Changming's younger brother was going to build a house, but he didn't go to see it because of the distance and the foundation was still being dug there.

As a result... they built the houses he built, and even hired a mason who had a bad relationship with him?

This is a bit irritating.

"Can you build a better house than his?" Fang Changming asked.

"Brother Fang, don't worry, your house must be better than others' houses, but I'm afraid that if we build it fast, they will build it slowly, and they will learn from us everywhere in the end." Shi Zhen said.

In the past, Mr. Wang didn't ask him for the decoration of Mr. Wang's house, but for Fang Changming's house, he will do the decoration for Fang Changming.

At that time, he will have some good designs to use, if all of them are learned...

"That's it... I'll say something to him, I hate his slow construction... Then he will definitely speed up!" Fang Changming sneered, "The last house he built, that is, the house that some people have already built, is definitely not as good as it is. to my house!"

It can be seen that the relationship between Fang Changming and his younger brother is really not good.

Shi Zhen still built the house slowly according to his own pace.

On the other hand, Fang Changming's younger brother, probably stimulated by Fang Changming, called in more masons to speed up the construction of the house.

During the period, Shi Zhen went to take a look... The house he built was exactly the same as the house he built for Mr. Wang. The mason Mr. Zhang even said some sarcastic remarks when he saw him.

The people on Shi Zhen's side were all novices, and the speed of work was indeed not as fast as that of the experienced ones. There were more people hired there, and it didn't take long for the speed of building houses there to catch up with him.

At this time, Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan's first batch of pencil cases and school bags were finally produced.

Before these things are fully produced, the dealers have already taken some of them away, saying that they want to sell them in the provincial capital. Now that all the things have been produced, the dealers will take away the rest and pay them.

Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan were a little excited when they came out to meet the dealer on the weekend.

The dealer came in from the outside, and when he saw them, he laughed loudly: "That pencil case of yours is selling very well, and I want to order another [-], but it's better to have more styles, not just two look!"

Liang Qinxuan asked: "Is the item sold?"

The dealer said: "It's sold, and the sales are pretty good. I took the things to the provincial capital, found a few key schools, and asked the teachers there to give advice to the students. Let the students use pencil cases instead of iron pencils. The pencil case, which would make a loud bang when it falls off the table in class, will affect the class...these pencil cases were snatched up."

This method was suggested by Guan Baiyu at the beginning.

It's not really a good idea, and after the teacher says so, students often have to spend more money to buy pencil cases.

But it... can indeed make the pencil case sold in the shortest possible time.

At this time, there are many such things. For example, when some people print teaching aids, they will go to the school and ask the school to buy them, or ask the teacher to suggest that students buy them.

Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan took the second order without hesitation.

Liang Qinxuan is not stupid, he knows that his father can open his company.

But now their things can be sold... He finally has some confidence and confidence in himself.

As for Guan Baiyu, he calculated the profit and started thinking about producing ballpoint pens.

The plastic barrel of the ballpoint pen can also be processed by others. As for the refill, it has to be imported from abroad.

After it is produced and labeled with their company, it can be sold.

But if he really wanted to do this, he and Liang Qinxuan, two people who wanted to study, would definitely be too busy, and they needed to hire someone.

At a time like this... Father Liang will be asked to help again.

Backed by a big tree, it is really good to enjoy the shade.
