After chatting with Liu Dazhuang, Li Yuting returned home and ate chicken with his mother while thinking about what Hong Gouzi and Liu Dazhuang had entrusted to them.
He himself is not really an official in the supply and marketing cooperative. Even if he is an official, it is not easy to solve the employment problem of nearly a hundred people at once. It is estimated that he must be at the same level as Yu Liancheng. So although Hong Gouzi and the others entrusted Li Yuting to
, in fact, it is unlikely that we can come up with a solution.
After thinking about it all night, Li Yuting couldn't figure out a way out. Early the next morning, Li Zhang was going to work, so she called Li Yuting and said, "Ting'er, Mom, I thought about it for a while. This time you were admitted to the management department. What's going on?"
It's also a big deal. Our family has to treat some neighbors to a meal. You have nothing to do today to buy some food and vegetables. Mom will take a day off tomorrow and come back to prepare in the evening! After you finish shopping, you will also have to interact with our family.
Call all the neighbors."
After not sleeping all night, Li Yuting was assigned to buy things during the day. When he went to the street to buy things, Li Yuting was confused. After a rough calculation, he found that there were six or seven tables for eight people to treat guests to. He arranged six or seven tables, although it was simple.
It also requires a lot of things.
After walking around the street and buying a lot of things, he found that he couldn't move so many things. It just so happened that Liu Dazhuang and his two younger brothers had just finished peeing and were about to go back, and they happened to meet him.
"Wenting, why did you buy so much meat and vegetables?"
"Brother Da Zhuang, my family is going to invite the neighbors for dinner tomorrow. My mother is at work today, so she has to ask me to buy it. When I get back, I have to invite the neighbors. As a result, I buy too much and can't take it back."
"We have a dinner party at home, but you didn't say anything about such a big matter. I'm going to take leave today to go shopping with you."
After speaking, Liu Dazhuang arranged for his two younger brothers to send back the urine collection items, and he helped Li Yuting move the things he bought home. "You guys go and tell Mr. Shu that I won't go to work this afternoon. I won't be working all day today."
No need to calculate wages."
The two of them walked home carrying a lot of things. Even if someone shared the load, Li Yuting found that the pile of things he bought was indeed a lot.
"No wonder those noble people have to ask for gifts when they buy things from our store. It turns out that it's really hard to get the things they bought."
"I'm not sure! We poor people usually buy less things, and when we want to buy something big, we push a cart. The noble people are so skilled, how can they have such strength? They are also rich, unlike us."
"They are rich and don't want to spend more money. Many of the noble people who come to our store to buy things want to take advantage of it. They give away even small things without giving any reward. But there is no way that some noble people have status and still want to be rewarded.
It’s hard to refuse. Our chief manager complained about this a few days ago. Our store is considered good, but I heard that the big stores in Beicheng are more troublesome."
"That is to say, you are a government-owned store and don't like to serve people. Like a store run by ordinary people, when a distinguished person comes to your door, you still don't use the pole to deliver it to your house? Just hire a few porters to deliver the things!"
"Brother Da Zhuang is not as simple as you said. There are miscellaneous things in the club, and you have to prepare the order when sending them over. It's okay to say that there are too many things. Sometimes the gifts are just small things at sky-high prices. It's not worth arranging literate guys to do it.
Otherwise, the managers wouldn’t have a headache over this.” At this point, Li Yuting suddenly stopped.
"You can't lift Yuting anymore? Come and give me some points. I'm strong and can take more."
"Brother Da Zhuang, I thought about your new business."
"What new business?"
"This is the work that you and Hong Gouzi can do. Our supply and marketing cooperative is worried about delivery. You can do this work! It's not worthwhile for adults to deliver things, but it's cheap to use dolls to deliver things, and there are some of you
If people learn to read like my mother, just making a list should be enough. When the time comes, more people will learn to read."
After hearing what Li Yuting said, Liu Dazhuang stopped quickly, thought for a while and replied: "I'm afraid it's a little difficult to deal with your supply and marketing cooperative? That's the property of the emperor. Are you afraid that you can't speak?"
"I can't speak, but Hong Gouzi can find someone to talk to. Doesn't he have a eunuch who is his backer? I heard that that man has a relationship with the big manager of our supply and marketing cooperative."
"Eunuch Cao? Not to mention that man is indeed very kind to Hong Gouzi. If Hong Gouzi goes to ask for help, he might not be able to establish a relationship."
"Exactly!"
"Yuting, let's put the things at your house quickly, and then I'll go find Hong Gouzi to see what his idea is. If he wants to do it, let's make a good plan."
The two quickly carried the things back to Li Yuting's house, and then Li Yuting went to invite the neighbors, while Liu Dazhuang ran to find Hong Gouzi.
An hour later, when Li Yuting was still inviting neighbors in the courtyard, Hong Gouzi led a group of people to the door.
"Yuting, Da Zhuang told me your idea. I think there is something going on in this matter. Let's talk about how to do it first."
A few people stood in the yard and discussed, and soon agreed on the charging model based on times and distance, as well as the content of the discussion with the supply and marketing cooperative. Hong Gouzi's team has its advantages, which is low cost. Children
Even if we make more than ten dollars a day, we can accept it. Unlike adults who make this little money, it is better to quit. Another advantage is that there are about ten literate children. If the situation is good, the rest can follow.
Li Yuting's mother came to study at night school.
"Yuting, the two of us will go find Eunuch Cao right now to see if he can help with this."
"Go now? I still have a lot of things to do at home. Tomorrow my family will invite the neighbors to dinner." Li Yuting was a little embarrassed. There was already too much time wasted today. If he can't finish the tasks assigned by my mother, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back.
Not easy to communicate with.
"This is easy to handle. Let Da Zhuang take a few brothers to take care of this matter. When the master's wife comes, the brothers can also help prepare things. You and I will go to Eunuch Cao first, so we won't delay things."
After all, Hong Gouzi was the leader of the large team. He quickly assigned people to help Liu Dazhuang do things, while he took Li Yuting to find Eunuch Cao.
The two met and discussed their ideas with Eunuch Cao. After some consideration, Eunuch Cao agreed to help pull the string. However, he also made a request, that is, Hong Gouzi had to ask him to be his godfather.
No one would help without any reason. Although Eunuch Cao admired Hong Gouzi and had taken care of him before, at that time Hong Gouzi was working for him to make a living. If he could control him, if this line was drawn, Hong Gouzi would
Gouzi will be out of control. So Eunuch Cao made this request because he didn't want to completely let go of Hong Gouzi's line. He might not be able to use it in the future. There is a relationship between adopted father and adopted son.
It will be easier to talk about some things in the future.
Of course Hong Gouzi will agree to this request. Eunuch Cao is not a bad person. He is very kind to himself. Becoming a godfather will not cost you a few taels of meat! It can also further deepen the relationship between the two. Although Eunuch Cao cannot
It's hard to say whether it will bring benefits to himself. After all, he is the steward of the palace and has a huge network of connections.
