Bai Hao asked for clothes, and when the waiter at Baiyun Hotel was about to leave, Jeff Haas said: "I have invited several lawyers from Xiangjiang to come over. Please leave a room for two people for me. I will arrive around noon tomorrow."
After the guest room manager left, Bai Hao said to Jeff Haas: "The only thing left is to wait until the deputy director of the purchasing department of Fleischer is really as you guessed."
Jeff Haas looked confident: "I can use tips to find out about him, and I believe he can too."
"Well. Rest, have a good rest."
"What's in your other wooden box?"
"Surprise, before I let you see the surprise, I still need to make some preparations. I think Yangcheng should have some materials. Maybe this hotel has them because they have a Western restaurant."
Jeff Haas nodded: "Okay, see you tomorrow." Jeff Haas was really a little tired. The reception team in Xia Guo was really too enthusiastic and introduced many products. Jeff Haas
When I returned to the hotel just now, my brain felt numb.
Bai Hao also returned to his room.
This room is very expensive, the suite on the top floor is even more expensive, and it only accepts foreign exchange coupons and foreign currency.
Paying with U.S. dollars, the suite cost eighteen yuan a night. Bai Hao heard that when it opened, it only cost five yuan, which was still Xia Guo currency, and the breakfast coupon only cost fifty cents, but now it costs one yuan and two.
From Bai Hao's perspective, the facilities in the room are at most the three-star rating they had before his rebirth, which is barely a better three-star rating. After all, this is a suite.
Bai Hao picked up the phone from the desk in the suite and walked to the balcony.
This is the top floor, and you can enjoy the night view of Yangcheng from the balcony.
Bai Hao calmed himself down, took a sip of tea and picked up the phone. It was time to call home. He was out of town and didn't know if his adoptive father Zhang Jianguo was worried.
Before Bai Hao went out, Zhang Jianguo told Bai Hao that if there was any emergency, he could send a telegram back.
If you are in an emergency, try to make a long-distance call.
One is the phone number in the factory, and the other is the phone number of the water plant not far from the welfare area.
Bai Hao picked up the phone and suddenly didn't know how to call.
Because Zhang Jianguo didn't tell him his phone number, he just looked for these two places.
In desperation, Bai Hao called the hotel front desk.
Before his rebirth, Bai Hao had never made such an extremely complicated long-distance call. Under the guidance of the front desk, Bai Hao began to try.
"Is it Yangcheng Long Distance Station?"
"Yes, you want it there."
Bai Hao was very curious about this purely artificial way of making long-distance calls. Bai Hao said again: "I want to go to the western suburbs of Jingzhao City, Qinzhou Province..." Bai Hao reported the name of the factory, but who wanted to ask the long-distance call station very much?
Details: "Who are you looking for, where are you."
Bai Hao could only answer: "I'm looking for Zhang Jianguo. The place I called is room 3302 of Baiyun Hotel in Yangcheng. My name is Bai Hao and I am Zhang Jianguo's son."
The little girl on the long-distance station was very serious and asked again: "Is the bow stretched? The founding of a country is the founding of a country?"
"Yes, yes."
The manual transfer took a full two minutes to connect. However, the girl on the long-distance station enthusiastically told Bai Hao that the money would only start counting after the call was connected, which was two yuan per minute.
Two dollars!!!
Two yuan can be exchanged for a basket of sesame cakes.
This price shocked Bai Hao. No wonder his adoptive father Zhang Jianguo had said before he left home that if there was an emergency, he would send a telegram. If it was urgent, he would make a long-distance call.
On the other end of the phone, after going home and cooking for the four little ones, he remembered that Zhang Jianguo had returned to the factory. First, he was studying how to do the new work of repairing and processing parts and how to allocate them to the factory.
Secondly, I thought that if something happened to Bai Hao and it was really urgent, if I called, I would be able to receive the call right away.
The girl at the long-distance station asked clearly and confirmed that Zhang Jianguo was the person Bai Hao was looking for before she answered the call.
"Dad." Bai Hao just called.
Zhang Jianguo became nervous: "Are you, everything okay?"
Bai Hao smiled: "Dad, didn't you listen to the little girl on the long-distance station who told you that this call came from Baiyun Hotel? I live on the top floor and it costs eighteen US dollars a night. During the Autumn Trade Fair, I only accept foreign exchange coupons."
He Mei Dao doesn’t accept Xia Guo coins. Dad, I’ve taken care of the seven hundred yuan issue.”
"Huh!" Zhang Jianguo let out a long breath: "Just solve it. You live in an expensive place like Baiyun Hotel. Where did you get the money for eighteen dollars?"
"The patent was sold, not all of it, half of it was sold for five thousand US dollars. Dad, you are angry too, but don't scold me for wasting money. I am a merchant from a beautiful country doing big business. I can't live here for two cents.
Even if I stay at Datong Shop for one night, the merchants from beautiful countries will look down on me, so this money must be spent."
Zhang Jianguo didn't understand much, but what Bai Hao said seemed to make sense, so he didn't pursue it further.
Bai Hao continued: "Dad, there is good news. I estimate that there will be an order for five thousand units of the toaster. It may be very urgent. It will take a month to make it and start shipping it to the beautiful country. Can you do it?"
"Well, let me think about it." Zhang Jianguo thought carefully and then replied: "If it is 5,000 units, then the outer casing can be molded, stamped and shaped in one go, and then arranged to be trimmed by hand. It is no problem to wind the heating wire by hand, small frying pan
I think I can allocate some money to your Uncle Big Bear's factory. If people from the beautiful country can pay well, they can use die-cast aluminum alloy to mold and then coat it, which is guaranteed to be fast and good."
"Dad, can I receive 5,000 stations?"
Zhang Jianguo thought repeatedly before answering: "I can take it. It can be completed in a month."
"Then we are adding more waffle irons. There is an order for about a thousand units."
"It's possible. If I work with your Uncle Big Bear's factory, I estimate that if I add 30%, I can still work in a month. If it is doubled, it is also possible to arrange for people to pay bonuses for overtime work."
Bai Hao probably knew it well, and he also knew the maximum production capacity of his adoptive father Zhang Jianguo's small factory in the area.
"Dad, if you have anything to do, call Yangcheng Baiyun Hotel. If the factory wants to charge you for long-distance calls, tell the long-distance station that I will pay for it. I asked just now, and it's okay."
"Take care of yourself, don't..." Zhang Jianguo was about to say, don't save money. As the old saying goes, a poor family will be rich. But when he thought about it again, Bai Hao could spend money to stay in a hotel worth eighteen dollars a night, so don't save money.
I was determined not to talk about money, so I changed my mind and said, "Don't spend money randomly. Leave some money for your sister to buy some decent clothes. She is a seventeen-year-old girl and she doesn't have many good clothes."
"I know, by the way, dad, I'll buy you some Chinese cigarettes."
"Hang up, the long distance charges must be very expensive." After Zhang Jianguo finished speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Bai Hao's reaction.
Five thousand units.
There was a hint of joy on Zhang Jianguo's face. He borrowed a bicycle from the factory and wanted to talk to Hao Tao.
