Chapter 451 Lao Liu’s business opportunities
Zhang Guoquan took the initiative to introduce: "Sister Sujuan, this is General Manager Ren Chengjie of Donglin City Thermal Power Plant."
Then he turned to Ren Chengjie: "Mr. Ren, Xia Sujuan from Aolong Construction Company."
The two shook hands and said "hello" to each other.
Aolong Construction Company is a courtyard. It is said that it used to be a small factory, but it was later abandoned. Fortunately, the rows of houses inside are still sturdy.
The scenery is nice, and the walls on all sides are covered with unknown green vines.
There are a few short trees at the door. It may not look as high-end and luxurious as other construction companies, but Aolong Construction Company does not look like a construction company, but more like a quiet and elegant farmhouse teahouse.
It fits Xia Sujuan's gentle temperament very well.
"Mr. Ren, Sister Sujuan is also involved in the construction of facilities in Pingshan County. Although she can't compare with those large construction companies and can only take on some small projects, Mr. Ren, don't underestimate Sister Sujuan. Let's get along with her for some time in the future.
, Mr. Ren will definitely be impressed."
Xia Sujuan smiled sheepishly: "Guoquan, when did you learn to compliment others? It seems that your job as a mine manager is not in vain."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and Zhang Guoquan continued to build relationships: "Mr. Ren, the business you and Sister Sujuan do is essentially inseparable from construction. I hope that Mr. Ren can help more in the future."
"Mr. Zhang, you're welcome. Miss Xia and I are in a mutually supportive relationship." Ren Chengjie said politely, "Ms. Xia, I will trouble you more in the future."
Xia Sujuan just smiled and made arrangements for the evening meal.
Ren Chengjie refused, saying he still wanted to go back. In his opinion, a small company like Xia Sujuan was no different from a small workshop.
He is a businessman, and he does not want to waste this time on a meaningless dinner.
If it weren't for Zhang Guoquan's face, he might not even come to town.
The beauty in front of him always looked at ease, and he tried his best to leave a graceful and polite image to her.
Xia Sujuan and Zhang Guoquan had no choice but to stop insisting and watched the car disappear at the end of the road, setting off bursts of dust and smoke.
"Guo Quan, come in and talk." Xia Sujuan entered the courtyard first.
Zhang Guoquan followed in and looked around. This was his first time in this courtyard.
"Sister Sujuan, don't tell me, the place you found is really good."
It doesn't look like a construction company, but rather like Xia Sujuan's boudoir courtyard.
Xia Sujuan glanced around the yard and asked, "Do you like it?"
"Hey, it doesn't matter whether I like it or not, as long as Sister Sujuan likes it."
Xia Sujuan raised the corner of her mouth and shook her head slightly: "Okay then, you just like to be a hands-off shopkeeper."
Just when Zhang Guoquan questioned this sentence, Xia Sujuan thought of something and said: "By the way, Guoquan, I may have to be busy until late today. Just let Xia Zhu sleep with Zhaoyang."
Aolong Construction Company has just been established and has not many employees. Xia Sujuan does many things herself.
"Okay, don't worry about Xia Zhu. The three children sleep in the bungalow every day, watching the stars and the moon. I will take my brother-in-law's bus back to Yangjiazhuang later."
Brother-in-law Wang Yonggui should be in the county seat now. The last bus back is around six o'clock, which is still two hours away.
Zhang Guoquan looked at Xia Sujuan's busy figure, but he couldn't do much to help. Waiting here for two hours was really boring.
So, he said hello to Xia Sujuan and went to wander around the town.
At first glance, the criss-crossed private houses are no different from those in previous years. The term "old and worn" can not only be applied to the town government, but also to the customs and appearance of the entire town.
If Ren Chengjie can really attract a few investors, he might be able to change this situation.
You can't stick to the old rules, you still have to step out and take a step forward. The same is true in Pingshan County.
While he was walking and thinking like this, he suddenly felt that Su Jincheng was the hope of Pingshan County.
While he was thinking wildly, an iron gate came into view not far away. The iron gate was half open, which was Lao Liu's warehouse.
Zhang Guoquan pushed open the half-open iron door and walked in. Old Liu was indeed in the warehouse, sticking his butt out and arranging goods.
Zhang Guoquan did not disturb him, and went straight to Lao Liu's recliner and lay down.
When Lao Liu turned around to get something, he exclaimed in fright.
"My daughter."
Lao Liu touched his chest: "When did you come?"
"Been here for a while."
"You are silent when you walk. Mine Manager Zhang Da is a rare visitor."
"What's wrong? When I come here, you have to be polite to me, right?"
Old Liu smiled and sighed: "Two years ago, you were traveling around the country selling popsicles, and in the blink of an eye you became the director of a large mine."
"Old Liu, don't tell me, I quite like walking around the countryside and selling popsicles."
"Hey... that man is walking to higher ground, why do you still want to go back?"
Zhang Guoquan didn't answer. He was walking to higher ground now, but he still felt uneasy. He hadn't cultivated the land yet, so he felt at ease selling popsicles.
However, he had to do many things, as if there were a pair of invisible hands pushing him behind his back.
"Brother Zhang, you said you are so capable now, have you ever thought about making the canteen bigger?"
Bullshit talent, the higher he goes, the more he discovers that there are people outside the world, and there are many capable people.
However, he was very interested in Lao Liu's last words.
"How to make it bigger? Yangjiazhuang is only that big. No matter how big it is, it will still be the same people."
"So, you have to change places."
"Change the place? Where?" Zhang Guoquan didn't understand for a moment.
Lao Liu put his buttocks on the edge of the recliner with a serious look on his face. Zhang Guoquan moved his position.
"We only have a good relationship. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't tell you about this business opportunity."
"You are so anxious."
Old Liu patted Zhang Guoquan's thigh, smiled, and said directly: "Open a supermarket."
"Supermarket? Oh, I know. I saw it when I went out of town. It's like a small market. It has everything."
"That's right, we don't have one in our town. Opening a large supermarket will definitely attract people."
Zhang Guoquan didn't take it seriously and asked casually: "Then why don't you open it?"
He has a good relationship with Lao Liu, and even said that it has gone beyond the usual cooperative supply relationship.
Old Liu was choked: "I am, mainly because I am older and not younger than you. Being the first to eat crabs is always risky."
Lao Liu's meaning is very clear. The large supermarket is the first one in the town. If it opens well, it can make a lot of money. If it fails, the people in the town will not be able to adapt to it for a while and will not be able to accept the large supermarket model. Naturally,
, the money invested was wasted.
Judging from Old Liu's cautious look, I guess a lot of money has been invested in a so-called large supermarket.
There are so many goods, no less than Lao Liu's warehouse, which definitely requires a large storefront. The investment will not be small, but the risk will be high.
"I just said that casually, but based on my many years of experience in supplying goods, I think this can be done."
Lao Liu didn't want to do it, mainly because he was afraid that the risk would be too great. At his age, there were seniors and juniors, and he had a lot of money to spend. If things went wrong, he couldn't afford such risks.
Zhang Guoquan also understood what Lao Liu meant. If he was willing to do it, Lao Liu would be responsible for supplying him.
There is no need to take any risks in supplying goods. He knows Zhang Guoquan's temperament. Even if he makes a profit, even if he loses money, he will not lose money for his goods.
Therefore, Lao Liu only acts as the supplier behind the scenes. For him, it couldn't be more secure.
Seeing Zhang Guoquan thinking, Lao Liu said with added jealousy: "I wouldn't say this to others, but if you, brother Zhang, do it, feel free to bear it in your heart. If you lose, just give me half of the payment."
Zhang Guoquan was very grateful for his words, and half of the risk was borne by him. This was the biggest concession that Lao Liu could make.
Zhang Guoquan sighed: "I really want to do it, but the key is that I don't have the capital."
If he really had the capital, he would rather choose a reliable shuttle bus. When he has sufficient experience, why bother getting involved in an unfamiliar industry.
Every other line is like a mountain, and the risk is really not small.
And the most important point is, who will manage such a big supermarket?
Unlike shuttle bus drivers and conductors, it is not something that can be managed by relatives, rest assured, or people who know Braille.
As for Zhang Guoquan, let’s not say whether he can manage it or not. He thinks he can for the time being. After all, he is also the mine manager and has one or two hundred people under him to manage it. The key is that he doesn’t have time.
The county will not allow him to be the mine manager and then divert his energy to other businesses.
