Chapter 290 Gifts
"Baocheng was going to open a shop at Tongshuling, but I was not optimistic about it. The villagers said that he would throw the money into the water and make a bubble. Baocheng threw the money into the bushing, and he wouldn't even get a bubble. No one in the family supported Baocheng, so Baocheng's wife almost divorced Baocheng. Jidong alone said that Baocheng's luck was on the bushing side. He really made the child say it right." Zhou Yushu was very moved when he recalled what happened.
"My family Qingyong told me that he wanted to open a snack bar, but I almost picked up the shoulder pole to break his leg. However, he said he was opening a shop with Ji Dong, so I didn't object. I took out all my family. Within half a year, Qingyong took back the money." Zhou Ganquan was very glad that he did not object to his son and Zhang Ji Dong's joint opening of the shop, otherwise he would be the one who regretted it now.
"Where is Ji Dong? I have prepared a gift for you." Zhou Baocheng said.
"Ji Dong and Qingyong went upstairs to watch TV." Zhang Dashuan said.
Zhou Baocheng stood up and said, "I'll go upstairs to find Ji Dong."
Zhang Jidong and Zhou Qingyong were watching TV while kneading melon seeds, and then complained that the show was getting more and more boring.
"Jidong, you two are here." Zhou Baocheng smiled.
"We two can't get into the conversation about what you are talking about. Why not watch TV here?" Zhang Jidong said.
"Ji Dong, Qing Yong, how is your snack bar doing this year?" Zhou Baocheng only knew that the snack bar business was good. Only Zhang Jidong and Zhou Qing Yong knew how much they made. At the beginning, Zhou Qing Yong would shout out his big mouth, but later his big mouth changed. When others asked him, he refused to tell the truth. It was either that he was still able to live up to his life, or that he was careless. It was obviously influenced by Zhang Jidong.
"It's okay." Zhou Qingyong said.
Zhang Jidong smiled slightly: "Uncle Baocheng's local specialty store should make a fortune this year. Your business is not prominent at all, because customers leave after buying things. Unlike our snack bar, many customers have to finish eating before leaving. Therefore, it seems that our business is booming, but in fact, it is really more profitable to use local specialty store."
"I only know Shuanghe Village, you can see it the most clearly." Zhou Baocheng said.
Zhou Baocheng's local specialty store is indeed not beautiful or not. It looks inconspicuous at all, but in fact the profit is very high. If you don't need it, you may not be able to see it in the store. If you need it, you will buy it several times when you buy it in the store. Tourists often come out of Baocheng's local specialty store with big bags. It really doesn't open a year, and you can eat for three years. His business is at least worth more than a dozen snack orders.
Zhou Baocheng also made a lot of money. In less than two months, he bought the store. No one knew about these things. People in the village thought that Baocheng made at most two small amounts of money. However, the business of the snack bar was booming, which made the villagers very jealous.
"Actually, we make small money. Dagui Hotels really make big money. People have capital, are very courageous and have big money. We can only watch this matter and don't have the ability." Zhou Baocheng said.
"That's not comparable." Zhou Qingyong nodded. Even if he invested in such a large store, even Zhang Ji's boss couldn't afford so much money.
Zhang Jidong smiled and said, "In fact, it is better to open a small shop. Although you make less money, things are very simple. Doing things for yourself will not have that many headaches. You see his glorious appearance, but you don't know how many headaches there are behind him."
"I have an idea next year. First, I will contract some land to grow crops and make local specialties. Second, I will contact several more companies to plant them. I will sign a contract with them. How much will they produce and how much will I want. The price will be settled first." Zhou Baocheng actually wanted to ask Zhang Jidong if this would work.
"This is a good idea. If the raw materials are unreliable, it will be troublesome if something happens. Our snack bar actually wants to stabilize the raw materials. However, we have too many types of raw materials, so it is not easy to be self-sufficient." Zhang Jidong said.
"Then you mean that there is something wrong with contracting land?" Zhou Baocheng asked.
"Of course there is something wrong with your local specialties. You contract the land and ask someone to plant it. You will follow your own ideas. If you sign a contract with others, you may not be able to act according to the contract. If the price of your contract is higher than the market price, it would be better if you say that the villagers will do it? It means that the contract you signed is all a piece of waste paper. And if those growers join forces to fight you, you will have no way out." Zhang Jidong said.
Zhou Baocheng thought about it and it was really as Zhang Jidong said. It would not work at all. If the contract was violated, Zhou Baocheng would really be too shameless to sue the villagers in the court.
"Well, it seems that I'm better off packing the land. Let my father take care of it, but it's still not possible to rely on others."
At this time, Zhang Dashuan came up and called for a few people to go down to have a meal.
Only then did Zhou Baocheng remember that he came up to give Zhang Jidong the New Year gifts.
"By the way, I almost forgot the main thing. Ji Dong, if it weren't for your words, I might not have made up my final decision. There would be no matter in the local specialty store. Thanks to you. Don't dislike this, uncle's little intention." Zhou Baocheng took out a box from his pocket. The winter clothes were worn thickly, so it was impossible to tell that they were placed in the bag.
"What is this?" Zhang Jidong asked strangely.
"Uncle bought you a mobile phone. You are now a boss. You can't do without a mobile phone. You can't find someone even if you want to find you." Zhou Baocheng said.
"I dare not accept such an expensive gift." Zhang Jidong didn't open the box and went back directly.
"I said at the beginning, thank you for your good words. If your uncle gets rich, I will thank you very much. Please hold this phone." Zhou Baocheng put the phone on the coffee table.
Zhang Jidong was still going to get it, but Zhou Baocheng hurriedly said, "Ji Dong, Uncle knows that it is not enough for a mobile phone, but I am very willing to do this. If you don't accept it, you will look down on Uncle."
Zhou Bao said this in Chengdu, and Zhang Jidong said helplessly: "Actually, I said it casually at the beginning. I didn't expect you to succeed."
"If you said it casually, you wouldn't have run to open a snack bar by yourself." Zhou Baocheng said.
The wine that Zhang Jidong's house drank was the jar of rice wine brought by Zhou Yushu. He warmed a pot of wine with a tin pot, which was steaming. When drinking, it was a little hot and the smell of wine hit his nose. The wine was so strong that it was delicious. With the dishes on the table, the wine was enjoyable.
From time to time, the roar of fireworks came from outside, and the air was filled with the smell of fireworks.
[Thanks to the fishermen who are alone in Han Ye for their rewards and support!]
