Chapter 9 Plan ahead
"I just ate in Brother Dafa's shop. If you don't have hunger, I'll go back to the house first."
Zhang Yiming turned around and was about to leave. He had said everything he should have said. He believed that grandma and mother would definitely persuade their father.
"If you don't believe it, go to Dafa Newsletter Store with me tomorrow morning and let Brother Dafa tell you in person."
After saying this, Zhang Yiming lifted the curtain and entered the house.
Outside the house, three people gathered around the table, looking at the eight thousand dollars on the table, all of which were very complicated.
"Put it away first!"
Zhang Yiming's ears were pressed against the door, and it took a long time before he heard his father's lowering voice.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly and he breathed a sigh of relief.
I know, my father recognized this money.
That night, Zhang Yiming slept very deeply until the sun came in from the window, until the sparrows on the willow branches outside chirped and opened the pot, and Zhang Yiming got up.
"Dad, wait for you and I to go to Dafa to communicate later!"
Because he got up late, Zhang Yiming didn't go for a run today. After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he sat on a chair and waited for Zhang Heshan to get up. Last night, the equipment of the food processing factory where Zhang Heshan was located broke down. Zhang Heshan was called to the factory repair machine by his colleagues in the middle of the night. He was busy until after 2 a.m. According to the factory regulations, he could have a long rest today.
"I won't go, I have something else to do later."
Zhang Heshan did not look directly at his son. What happened yesterday made him feel even more like his son had grown up. Although he was only sixteen years old, he seemed to have become a bird with hard wings. He seemed to no longer need him to protect and protect him.
This should have been a good thing, but Zhang Yiming was not yet old to bear the burden of his family, so Zhang Heshan blamed all this on his incompetence.
"oh."
Zhang Yiming didn't say anything more. The intimacy that the father and son had finally established two days ago disappeared for no reason. Zhang Yiming couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Come back early in the evening and go out with me."
Zhang Heshan hurriedly bite two bites of corn cake, sucked half a bowl of porridge, and after throwing this sentence, he went out without looking back.
Zhang Yiming was slightly stunned. He didn't know what his father would take him to do tonight. Because he had doubts, he didn't eat much, so he said hello to Qin Fang and went to the communications store.
Wang Fa was in a very good spirit. When he saw Zhang Yiming, he immediately came up with a smile. In his eyes, Zhang Yiming became the little God of Wealth.
"Xiao Ming, I look so energetic. Did you sleep well yesterday?"
"Thank you, Brother Dafa, you've had a great sleep."
"Haha, I didn't sleep well at all."
"Hmm? Brother Dafa is..."
"You big-father brother, I have been dreaming all night. In the dream, money is lost in the sky, and I can't pick it up. Do you think I can sleep well? I woke up even with a smile!"
Wang Fa was so excited that he laughed while talking, with a pile of small fine lines piled up at the corners of his eyes.
Zhang Yiming was speechless, but he could understand that it was not the same when he dug out the first pot of gold in his life. When he was sleeping, he held the money in his arms and smelled the smell of money, and was extremely satisfied.
"Brother Dafa, don't be too happy too early, this money won't be made for too long."
“Why?”
Wang Fa's smile froze suddenly, and he even looked at Zhang Yiming in horror.
"We can make money now because there is no competition. In Tongyuan County, our communications store can sell assembly machines, but can you guarantee that in one month or two months, we will still be the only one store? Once you see the profit, countless people will try their best to participate. Once there are more competitors, the profit will become less and less."
Zhang Yiming didn't want to throw cold water on the king. He just talked about the matter. No one did it before because he didn't know the market environment and the profits were in the middle. But soon, someone would smell the business opportunities here, and the emergence of competitors was only a matter of time.
"So, we can only make two months of money? Then should we strike while the iron is hot and assemble an additional batch of BP machines as soon as possible?"
After previous contact, Wang Fa already trusted Zhang Yiming very much. He had no doubt about Zhang Yiming's words, so his emotions immediately became nervous.
"Brother Dafa, your mentality is really not like a businessman. I'm just giving an example to tell you not to be too proud. We must prepare for the future and think of ways to deal with it before the competition comes."
Zhang Yiming shook his head, thinking that Wang Fa was really not a business man, but fortunately his character is quite good.
"So, Xiao Ming, have you already got an idea?"
Hearing Zhang Yiming's words, Wang Fa's frown loosened again.
"We cannot stock up on goods. The more fierce the competition is, the more we need to reduce the inventory backlog. The parts market changes every day, and the purchase price will definitely get lower and lower, and the products will continue to upgrade. The backlog of parts will not only not improve our competitiveness, but may also cause difficulties in capital turnover or increase procurement costs. We must never do such things."
Zhang Yiming supported the counter with both hands and stared at Wang Fa and said.
He has had such losses several times in his previous life and has seen a lot of them. Of course, he will not follow this old path again. Although he does not intend to make money on the BP machine for too long, he will not cut off this line in the short term. He needs sufficient start-up funds to do other things. Within at least one year, he will wholeheartedly help Wang Fa run this communications store.
"What should I do? Are you just watching our business be snatched away by others?"
Wang Fa was a little panicked. He only felt rich overnight yesterday. How could he accept losing in the blink of an eye?
"Of course not, don't worry, I will not only make Dafa Communications the boss of the communications industry in Tongyuan County, but also make Dafa Brother you the boss of the communications industry."
Zhang Yiming said with confidence, and Wang Fa's passion was ignited again.
It seemed as if he had seen his future, driving a sports car that he could only see on TV, and there was a long-haired beauty sitting in the car, taking a majestic ride in the Sifang City.
The layout of the store is the same as yesterday. Two beauties wearing cheongsams got a red envelope of ten yuan yesterday. They stood very straight today, not only with a bright smile, but even took the initiative to help the store receive customers.
Before noon, four more BP machines were sold. Wang Fa sat at the counter, his eyes narrowed into a slit when he smiled.
Zhang Yiming stood at the door, his eyes stopped at the figure flashing by the entrance of the alley opposite.
He suddenly recognized who the figure was, even though he didn't see the person at all, and he couldn't even see clearly in his clothes.
"Brother Dafa, I'll go to the bathroom."
Zhang Yiming turned his head and said to Wang Fa, blinked his eyes again, then slowly walked out of the store and walked towards the public toilet on the outside of the pedestrian street.
Chapter completed!
