Guangdong has been a commercial capital since ancient times. The economic development of this place has always been at the forefront of the country. Guangdong Railway Station is the largest railway station in the country. The largest refers to the passenger flow.
When Yao Yuan and the other three reached the exit of the station, they couldn't move much. The front was full of people, soliciting customers, recruiting and defrauding people, abducting women and children, and plundering people...
From time to time, miserable cries broke out: "My money! Damn it! My money has been stolen!"
More often than not, they were soliciting customers by forcing them to get into the car, saying that it was going to Dongguan. Then they got off halfway and got into another car, and then collected the money again...
One word, chaos.
But it cannot hide the pulsating economic context, and the smell of spring breeze is everywhere.
Lin Xiaohu suddenly took two quick steps and stood in front of Yao Yuan. He slapped the person who was coming towards him aside with a slap like a cattail leaf fan. The person gave Lin Xiaohu a sinister look, turned around and left.
After squeezing out the crowd, Yao Yuan found a more open place to stop and looked around. The famous square in front of the station was densely packed with people.
Lin Xiaohu said, "The car is waiting over there, let's go now."
Yao Yuan frowned and asked, "Are you in trouble?"
"Yeah." Lin Xiaohu nodded slightly and said, "That person is from the Six Gang, and this gang is very dangerous."
Wang An'an looked around curiously. The size of the station, the number of passengers, and the number of cars on the road all made this middle-aged man feel fresh and shocked when he returned to the provincial capital for the first time.
Yao Yuan said, "Uncle An'an, let's go to the hotel first."
"Where's the goods? Who will take delivery?" Wang Ping'an was worried about the one hundred tons of white sugar.
Before coming, Wang Jianguo specifically told him to be careful about the goods. They were worth nearly 200,000 yuan, which was enough to pay the factory workers a week's salary.
Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Put the goods in the station warehouse first, and everything will be fine."
"Then, okay, Xiaoyuan, you can't cheat me." Wang An'an said with a smile.
Wang An'an lives above Yao Yuan's house. He is several years younger than Yao Zhenhua. He always calls Yao Zhenhua brother Zhenhua. The two families have a good relationship and often help each other. Wang Jianguo asked him to go on business trips with Yao Yuan because of this.
Another point of their relationship is that Wang An'an and Wang Jianguo are from the same village, and they are both from Tiange Village.
"Uncle An'an, just have fun and go shopping in the provincial capital these days. No matter what, the goods are safe," Yao Yuan said.
Wang An'an said duplicitously, "I'm here on a business trip, not a tourist."
"It's so rare to come here, just treat it as a tourist." Yao Yuan smiled and nodded towards Lin Xiaohu.
Lin Xiaohu led the two of them towards the road.
At this moment, Yao Yuan noticed that there were several pairs of malicious eyes looking at them.
The gang that can make Lin Xiaohu so nervous should not be underestimated.
Wang Anping and his security department are themselves the militia battalion of the factory. They have gun licenses to carry guns, and have army-standard weapons, equipment and uniforms. However, Wang Anping does not wear old-fashioned military uniforms. The Xiaoxiao boys do not know his identity, and Yao Yuan has
The black handbag is like a bait, attracting many malicious eyes.
Until Yao Yuan and the others got into the car, the other party made no move.
Lin Xiaohu's frown deepened.
Yao Yuan was not as worried as he was, browsing the street scenes of Guangdong City in this era through the car window.
The car is the reception car of the Swan Hotel, with a black and majestic crown. At this time, the Swan Hotel is the best hotel in Guangdong City, the first Sino-foreign joint venture five-star hotel in China, and the first batch of five-star hotels were rated last year.
There are three in total, and Swan Hotel is one of them.
Since its opening in 1983, the Swan Hotel has been the first choice hotel for international business people, businessmen from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who come to Guangdong City. If you want to find foreign businessmen, you can definitely go to the Swan Hotel. People bumping into you at the door are either from Hong Kong, Macao or other countries.
Merchant.
In the past few days, the Swan Hotel has been visited by a large number of businessmen, a considerable number of whom are from the mainland.
Because the import and export trade show is in progress.
In fact, most of the merchants attending the exhibition will choose Huaxia Hotel and Oriental Hotel. These two hotels are relatively inferior, but they are close to the venue and can be reached by crossing the road via a pedestrian bridge.
Yao Yuan wants to make a personal trip to the provincial capital, which is related to the import and export trade exhibition.
The luxury of the Swan Hotel shocked Wang An'an. After all, Lin Xiaohu had stayed in the provincial capital for many years and had seen the scene before, so he would not be too surprised.
Wang Ping'an looked at the luxurious room he had only seen in picture albums and couldn't move. "Here, Xiaoyuan, should I live in such a nice room by myself? How much does this cost?"
Yao Yuan said, "Uncle An'an, you can live and play in peace. I'm quite busy these days. Xiaohu's friends will take you around."
"Isn't this bad?" Wang Anping hesitated.
Yao Yuan smiled and waved his hand, "Uncle An'an, please don't be polite to me."
He asked the waiter to teach Wang how to use the facilities in the room safely. Lin Xiaohu went to the lobby to pick up people, while he returned to the room and started making calls.
The first call was made to Lin Wei. Yao Yuan said, "Fat boy, the situation has changed. Find a reliable person to do the decoration. Take the time to make what I want, and then fly to the provincial capital."
"
"Take a plane? Are you serious, Ayuan? Can I take a plane?" Lin Wei shouted.
Yao Yuan frowned, "Are you at the sugar factory?"
"Yeah, let's go back to the team to see our colleagues. Ayuan, how's your business deal going in the provincial capital? Last time I had dinner with Mr. Xu, and he said he could give us 200,000 yuan of goods first. Take a look.
How to do it, try to talk it down." Lin Wei's voice was loud.
Yao Yuan could almost imagine such a scene: In the back-up room, the co-workers gathered around Lin Wei, smoking his Big China, drinking the good tea brought by Lin Wei, and looking at Lin Wei in a dignified manner.
Wei answered the phone with Big Brother in his hand, his eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred...
I will never hold you back as I should cooperate with you in your performance.
Yao Yuan made up his mind, cleared his throat, and said loudly, "I just arrived in the provincial capital and stayed at the Swan Hotel. Let's put Mr. Xu's affairs aside and talk about your flight first."
Good brother, Lin Wei was grateful in his heart. It was the first time he was pretending to be cool. He was actually very nervous and worried that Yao Yuan wouldn't understand. Unexpectedly, Yao Yuan cooperated decisively and found the point right away.
"Okay, it's good to fly to the provincial capital. You can get there in two hours. By the way, do you want a letter of introduction from the factory? I'll go to the office later and get one." Lin Wei tried his best to act as natural as possible.
There was a hint of indifference, indicating that flying on a plane was a trivial matter for him, Lin Wei.
Yao Yuan said, "No, now you can buy plane tickets if you have money. You can go to the airport and buy the tickets in advance. Time is money. You are a person who earns hundreds of thousands every minute."
The stupid Ayuan is better at pretending than me. Lin Wei cursed in his heart and said, "Okay, I understand. If there is anything else, let's talk about it."
Yao Yuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Damn it, fat boy, you are so excited to cooperate with your performance. He gritted his teeth and said, "The other things are not important. Do the two things I just said. You must come here with your things in three days."
Meet me."
"Okay, okay, I understand, don't worry." Lin Wei didn't dare to continue pretending, and wanted to say a few words for the occasion, but Yao Yuan had already hung up the phone.
Lin Wei smiled and continued to say to the big brother who heard the busy signal, "Ayuan, you should be more careful in the provincial capital. Big cities are not as big as our Nangang. If you are not in a hurry, you can take the bus. It costs five cents."
It can take a long way... Let’s leave it like this for now. If you don’t understand anything, feel free to call me and ask me. After all, I’ve been there once, so I still have some experience.”
After pressing the hang-up button, Lin Wei put his mobile phone into his handbag. In order to pretend to be his mobile phone, he spent a huge amount of money (10 yuan) to buy a handbag.
The worker, who had long been unable to hold himself back, said, "Xiaowei, you are doing well now. Your business has gone to the provincial capital. Big brother bought it and drove the jeep. What kind of big boss are you with?"
"It's not like he's a big boss. He just makes a living." Lin Wei's pretentiousness is still in the early stages, and he can't do it without blushing and his heart not beating.
A young co-worker asked, "Brother Wei, do you still need people in your company? Can I make a fortune with you?"
If it was Yao Yuan, he must have dealt with it by pretending to be haha. Lin Wei is sincere and he actually said seriously, "I have to ask A Yuan about this. After all, he is the boss."
"Ayuan, the boss's name is Ayuan?"
Lin Wei suddenly remembered that Yao Yuan had told him to keep it secret. He quickly smiled and said, "Yes, yes, boss Yuan, his, his surname is Yuan."
"The surname is Yuan. This surname is so rare..."
"hehe……"
Over there, Lin Xiaohu met his two junior brothers outside the lobby, both retired athletes from the provincial Sanda team, Lu Sen and Zhou Fei.
They did not return to their hometown after retiring, but chose to stay in the provincial capital. When they received Lin Xiaohu's letter, they were working as cement workers at the construction site in the development zone.
Suddenly appearing in front of the best hotel in the country, the two of them seemed like they were in a dream.
"Brother, have you made a fortune?" Lu Sen has a short hair and a fleshy face, which has nothing to do with being a capable Sanda athlete.
Lin Xiaohu ignored him and asked, "Why don't you go in?"
Zhou Fei, on the other hand, was a gentle man. He glanced at the security guard, pointed at himself, and said, "No entry."
They were wearing rough clothes for working on the construction site and Jiefang shoes, so they were naturally blocked from the door. If they hadn't insisted that they were looking for someone, they would have been driven away long ago.
Lin Xiaohu said, "Let's talk after we go in."
The security guard stopped me and said, "I'm sorry, sir, but disheveled people are not allowed in."
Lin Xiaohu said, "They are my friends."
"That's not okay. Our hotel has regulations. I'm really sorry." The security guard said.
The staff of Swan Hotel have been strictly trained, and the attitude of the security guards can be said to be polite and polite, making people unlikely to get angry.
Lin Xiaohu said, "How do you think you are neatly dressed?"
"This..." the security guard was asked. He just subconsciously felt that migrant workers were not allowed to enter.
Lin Xiaohu remembered Yao Yuan's explanation and immediately said, "If you have any questions, ask your manager to come to me. I live in room 1202."
After saying that, he led Lu Sen and Zhou Fei in.
The security guard was stunned for a while, hesitated, and asked his colleagues to watch for help. He quickly went to the manager on duty, and after explaining the situation, he said awkwardly, "Our regulations do not specify how to be neatly dressed. Manager,
what should we do?"
The manager on duty said, "Just adapt to circumstances. I really have friends staying here. Even if they are coolies, they are not ordinary coolies, you know?"
The security guard was relieved.
In Room 1202, Lu Sen and Zhou Fei looked at the huge room and felt that their eyes were not enough.
Lu Sen said, "I don't know how much better it is than the guest house I stayed in before when I went to Beijing to compete! Brother, do you live in such a big room by yourself? How much does it cost for one night?"
"Two hundred and seventy-eight." Zhou Fei said.
"What two hundred and seventy-eight?" Lu Sen asked doubtfully.
Zhou Fei said, "It costs 278 yuan to stay one night."
"Two hundred and seventy-eight!" Lu Sen was shocked, "How did you know?"
"There is a price at the front desk." Zhou Fei said.
Lin Xiaohu asked them to sit down and said, "Drink some tea. The boss will take care of you tonight."
"Brother, tell us about the boss. Good guy, I live in a room alone and earn 278 dollars a day. I can't make that much in a month." Lu Sen smacked his mouth.
Lin Xiaohu said, "The apartment where the boss lives costs more than 700 a day."
…
Yao Yuan has been on the phone all afternoon. The phone in the room can even make international long-distance calls, but international and domestic long-distance calls are charged, and local calls are free.
The last time Lin Wei, Lin Xiaohu and others came to the provincial capital, they stayed for many days. In addition to purchasing goods, the rest of the time was used to do other things. Yao Yuan wrote in detail in the notebook. If he needed information collected by Lin Wei, he had to contact him in advance.
People are waiting, the preparations have been done long ago.
After hanging up the phone of Midea Factory, Yao Yuan dialed the sales office of Gree Factory, and the words he came up with were the same, "Gree Factory, I am Xiao Yao from Yuanda Trading, yes, yes, Xiao Yao from Yuanda Trading, right?"
Yes, you, Ms. Dong, and I have made an appointment to meet at the import and export trade exhibition. I have already arrived at the Swan Hotel, but I cannot contact Ms. Dong. Yes, yes, our company is holding a purchasing banquet at the Swan Hotel tonight, yes.
, I’m worried because I can’t contact Miss Dong. Who says it’s not the case? Gree Factory can’t handle the procurement dinner without you..."
"Oh, you asked us what Yuanda Trading's specific business is. It's like this. We are mainly engaged in foreign trade. In China, we are currently preparing to build electrical appliance retail terminals. One of our stores has an area of 3,000 square meters. Yes, yes.
, The purchasing dinner is a form of centralized purchasing for our company. Let’s chat while eating, haha. Okay, okay, then I’ll trouble you, okay, okay, you say..."
After successfully getting Miss Dong's phone number, Yao Yuan did not call. He had no intention of calling. The message that should be conveyed had already been conveyed. He could just wait for Miss Dong to come to her door tonight.
He followed the same example and called Changhong Factory, Meiling Factory, Grants Factory... more than a dozen manufacturers that produce household appliances. The content was basically the same, and he looked like an old acquaintance who had been dealing with major manufacturers for a long time.
If Lin Wei were around, he would definitely say: A Yuan is really good at pretending!
Major manufacturers will definitely send people to participate in the exhibition, and there will definitely be leaders who can make decisions. For Yao Yuan, taking advantage of the exhibition, he can easily make appointments with the sales representatives of all manufacturers.
Normally, it would be almost impossible to do.
The doorbell rang, Yao Yuan went to open the door, and what he saw was a beautiful woman, in decent professional attire, with a mature aura, wearing high heels, looking like a proper workplace lady.
The bright and white teeth, the charming eyes, and the smooth curves made Yao Yuan's heart palpitate for a moment.
"Yao...Mr. Yao?" Sister Yu was obviously stunned for a moment and smiled.
Yao Yuan nodded slightly, "I am Yao Yuan."
"Hello Mr. Yao, I am He Shirley, the manager of the catering department. We talked on the phone before," He Shirley said.
Yao Yuan turned aside and said with a smile, "Manager He, please come in."
"Thank you, I didn't expect Mr. Yao to be so young." He Shirley said with a smile and then turned to the topic, "Mr. Yao, as per your request, the restaurant has been decorated. I wonder if you have any other requirements?"
Yao Yuan pointed to the sofa and said, "Manager He, please wait a moment. I'll make a call first."
"Okay, okay, you're busy."
He Xueli sat down and quietly looked at Yao Yuan who was standing by the desk on the phone. He was young and handsome beyond her imagination. Listening to the voice on the phone, she guessed that it was a young boss, but she didn't expect him to be so young.
promising.
"Come all over."
Yao Yuan only said this and hung up the phone.
He came over and said with a smile, "Manager He, I have to ask you a favor."
He Xueli noticed that Yao Yuan's eyes were sweeping over her slender and smooth legs, her face was slightly red, she quickly stood up and said, "Mr. Yao, please tell me..."
