"What, it's still in stock!" Qiu Mingquan was taken aback, "Isn't the stock already in your hand?"
"Are you the president, or am I the president?"...
Next, Feng Rui instructed Qiu Mingquan to go into the city. This time, the goal was not only for boutique shopping malls, but to revitalize the famous shopping malls such as the shopping mall and Guanhai shopping mall, and ran all over the counters of hero pens.
Sure enough, in the past few days, the hero gold pen in a shopping mall has been out of stock!
As soon as Feng Rui saw this sign, he made a decisive move, told Qiu Mingquan to rush to several other shopping malls, and poured out the 1,000 yuan in his hand, and exchanged all of it for gold pens.
Three days later, major shopping malls ushered in the era of out-of-stock hero gold pens.
In fact, not only in Dongshen City, but also at counters all over the country. Faced with the domestic high-quality gold pen advertisements spread all over the country, and it is winter vacation, many parents are considering buying a good fountain pen for their children as a backup for school.
This time, even the Hero Golden Pen Factory was greatly surprised, and the output failed to keep up.
At that time, there was no such thing as "hunger marketing", but every day I heard the attractive advertisements on the radio and TV, but I couldn't buy it, which formed an unexpected and hard-to-find situation.
Qiu Mingquan didn't know all this, but Feng Rui could keenly guess it.
Just in the past few days when the stock was completely out of stock, he asked Qiu Mingquan to take some gold pens and walk around the stationery counters of major shopping malls every day. Once he heard that someone had a clear desire to buy but came back disappointed, Qiu Mingquan ran away In the past, a variety of varieties were drawn out for people to choose from.
Claret pen body, full silver pen body, silver cap and black body... When you buy it, you have a purposeful configuration, and you can choose it when you sell it.
... The salespersons at the stationery counter in the boutique commercial building are convinced.
Although it was known that the child bought so many pens every day to sell them, where they were sold was always a mystery.
It's a good thing now, people are reselling them under the noses of their state-owned stores!
Occasionally, a customer wondered whether it was true or not, and the child pointed to this side with an innocent face: "I entered here."
Yes, there is a special counter inspection on site! This is it!
To complain, the hero gold pen at the counter is still completely out of stock, and there is an endless stream of customers who come to buy it. They have urged the manufacturer several times to say that the production capacity is insufficient, and the leaders of the commercial building have nothing to do.
After three or two days, they already knew how much the child added to the price of a pen. It has to be said that at this time when it was hard to find, Feng Rui's price was stuck at a node that was well versed in customer psychology, so that You feel pain in the flesh, but you are not angry enough to walk away.
What this kid earns in a few days is probably enough to earn a few months' wages for salespeople in state-owned enterprises!
Especially Zhao Decheng, the narrow-minded head of the counter, was extremely upset, and he couldn't please his eyes any way he saw this brat.
On this day, Qiu Mingquan was negotiating with a customer: "It's really not good, uncle, I will earn two yuan for this..."
"Two yuan is not enough! You sell dozens of pens a day, and you dare to speculate at such a young age!"
A hand suddenly reached out from behind, grabbed Qiu Mingquan's little hand fiercely, and snatched the gold pen from his hand.
Qiu Mingquan raised his head in astonishment, and looked at Zhao Decheng who was dressed in a Chinese tunic suit: "Uncle...why are you robbing me?"
Zhao Decheng choked.
This brat is really cunning and bad, he doesn't make excuses, but gives him the hat of stealing things!
He arbitrarily snatched the schoolbag from Qiu Mingquan's hand, and dumped the gold pencil case full on the ground: "Steal? I'm going to smash you!"
"Gululu", a pile of pencil cases fell to the ground.
...
On the stairs on the second floor, two middle-aged men were walking side by side.
General Manager Qu of the boutique shopping mall smiled and looked at his old classmate Wei Qingyuan beside him: "Congratulations, I didn't expect you to be transferred from Yanjing to Dongshen City. The college students of our class have been working in Yanjing for more than ten years. , it's just you."
Wei Qingyuan shook his head and smiled wryly: "I like doing research, you don't know that. If Principal Gong hadn't come to Dongshen City to take up a job this time, and insisted on bringing me along, I would rather work in the Audit Office."
Qu Yifei was deeply moved: "It's up to you. In today's situation, the country is short of people, especially those who understand the market economy. Almost all of our senior brothers and sisters in the past few years have been activated urgently."
Wei Qingyuan smiled: "You are not the same, you have been promoted to the position of general manager at this age."
Qu Yifei shook his head and lowered his voice: "I'm also crossing the river by feeling the stones. By the way, you have a high level of contact. Do you think the joint-stock reform is really feasible?"
Wei Qingyuan pushed his glasses and looked solemn: "You should know better than me, right? Just last year, Yuyuan Shopping Mall became one of the first batch of enterprises in Dongshen City to change to a joint-stock system. It united dozens of state-owned and collective stores. , formed a large, unified joint stock company, and expanded the scale of operations with concentrated advantages. You should know that they issued shares and the response was very good, so why can't you?"
Qu Yifei's eyes flickered: "Yes! I also think that this direction is very worth trying - you don't know, these days, I have thought about many ways to mobilize enthusiasm. In the final analysis, the attempt of the joint-stock system puts the vital interests of the employees Linking with the unit is the most powerful move!"
Wei Qingyuan quietly pointed to the north: "You are in the company, give it a go, the policy will definitely surprise you with its boldness!"
Qu Yifei's heart jumped, and he became a little excited. This classmate is highly valued by his mentor, Principal Gong. This time, Principal Gong was appointed as the vice president of Dongshen City Branch of the People's Bank of China. He insisted on bringing his favorite student Wei Qingyuan from the Human Education Department to The meaning of Dongshen City is self-evident.
He nodded solemnly: "I understand, I will quickly suggest to the higher-ups, let go and try!"
Wei Qingyuan smiled and said: "By the way, I want to come to you to buy two gold pens as gifts, and take me to the stationery counter?"
Qu Yifei slapped his thigh: "You didn't say it long ago! The Hero Gold Pen has been out of stock for a long time, even if I am a smart woman, I can't cook without rice now! Don't worry, it will arrive in a while, and I will keep it for you."
Wei Qingyuan smiled and said: "I didn't know you were performing your duties here, otherwise, you wouldn't have bought one at a higher price a few days ago."
Qu Yifei was taken aback by this, and thought it was funny: "This can be sold, so you're so active?"
Wei Qingyuan laughed: "And the person who did this was a child. To tell you the truth, after I bought the pen that day, I was very emotional."
"What are you feeling?"
Wei Qingyuan's eyes were firm: "The market economy is imperative. The sense of smell and wisdom of the masses have already gone ahead. Even a small child can take this step ignorantly. Why do we hesitate?"
Qu Yifei was extremely surprised: "What you said sounds like an anecdote. Is it really a child who sold a gold pen to you? Why don't I believe it!"
Wei Qingyuan stepped onto the third floor, looked forward unconsciously, saw a small face, and immediately froze.
After a while, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Don't believe me? Then I will prove it to you today."
...
"You are not allowed to do business here! Believe it or not, I will call the police to arrest you! Raising prices unscrupulously, buying and selling, you will go to jail!" Zhao Decheng sneered.
This is still an era when the market economy has not been liberalized, and sales are everywhere in later generations. At this time, there is also a not-so-proper name "speculation". In most people's minds, this is disgraceful and needs to be concealed. of.
Qiu Mingquan: "Mr. Feng, what should we do?"
Feng Rui said angrily: "You didn't steal or rob, why are you afraid of him!"
Qiu Mingquan was not afraid, but he rarely quarreled with others in his previous life, and he was not very eloquent. He calmed down: "Uncle, I didn't do anything illegal. I bought it with my own money, and the people who bought my gold pen also liked it." Willingly. You can't."
He was young and lacked momentum, so when he spoke in such a friendly manner, Zhao Decheng became more and more unreasonable.
He turned his head and shouted downstairs: "Security Section, come quickly! There is a speculative peddler on the third floor, come and deal with it!"
Not long after, two people from the security department of the commercial building came, one old and one young, and the older one was the chief of the security department.
Zhao Decheng told the story arrogantly, until the head of the security department was taken aback.
This has never happened before, and what Team Leader Zhao said seems quite reasonable. A few years ago, it was broadcast on the radio, and people were shot for serious crimes of speculation?
In this era, the thinking of most people is indeed still in the rigid stage.
"You kid, how could you do this?" The younger security officer looked at Qiu Mingquan and said bluntly, "Hurry up, or you will be turned over to the Public Security Bureau!"
The chief of the security department waved his hand, but he was very kind: "Little friend, who taught you to do this?"
"It must be instigated by the adults in the family!" Zhao Decheng threatened viciously, "If I say it, the adults in the family must be arrested together!"
"Are you sure? Why don't I demonstrate it to you?" President Feng was eager to try again.
"You won't hit someone again, will you?" Qiu Mingquan asked suspiciously.
"That must not be the case." Feng Rui said indifferently, "At this time, we pay attention to a person who convinces people with virtue."
This child is an abandoned baby picked up by the old couple. It was in the middle of winter, and such a delicate swaddling baby with blue flowers was lying on the side of the road. They couldn't bear to see such a young child left alone, and the social welfare institutions were not perfect. Ask After a long time, they couldn't find a good place for the abandoned baby. As a last resort, I adopted it.
Qiu Mingquan has been well-behaved and obedient since he was a child, and he never caused people to worry, but recently... the two old people thought of his extremely strange words and deeds recently, and suddenly wanted to go wrong.
——Is this child starting to turn bad? !
Leaving early and returning late, stealing money for private use, and having strange scars on his body, could it be that he did some bad deeds with bad guys!
Grandpa Qiu was in a trance for a while, and suddenly remembered what he saw a few days ago. Qiu Mingquan, who had been shy and timid since he was a child, had that desperate and fierce look in his eyes when facing Wang Daquan.
And the past, not a person at all!
"You...you tell me clearly!" Grandpa Qiu stood up abruptly, panting heavily.
He has always been seldom talkative and has no culture. He is usually silent and dull, but when he loses his temper, he is very scary.
"What should I do?" Qiu Mingquan asked anxiously in his heart, and asked Feng Rui for help.
"Just tell the truth, say that you heard the news on a whim, and you made money selling gold pens." No matter how capable Feng Rui is, it's okay at this time, "Don't be so stupid as to tell me, otherwise they might find Taoist priests or The monk came to suppress me."
The two old people only saw his anxious face and sweat dripping from his forehead. Grandma Qiu felt a pain in her heart, and muddy tears flowed down her cheeks.
"Xiaoquan..." She choked up and said, "I know our family is suffering. But you must not go astray if you are poor."
Qiu Mingquan shook his head anxiously: "No! Grandma, I didn't do anything bad! Believe me..."
"Then tell us, why did you steal the money?" Grandma Qiu looked at him anxiously.
Not to mention that it's impossible to hide it, Qiu Mingquan bit the bullet and said: "Grandpa, grandma, I... I recently learned from others and started a little business."
He took a deep breath and tried his best to look mature: "I bought the pens in the mall, the ones with gold nibs, and sold them at a higher price. These days, I made a lot of money."
"Xiaoquan, you..." Grandma Qiu cried in despair. It's fine to steal money, but you still tell such a big lie? !
Qiu Mingquan panicked, pulled down his schoolbag, and dumped all the money in it on the bed.
"Grandpa and grandma, look, the money is back, and I have earned so much!"
A large pile of old and new ten-yuan and five-yuan banknotes covered the bed, and there was also the crisp sound of steel coins colliding with each other. Under the dim light, the eyes of the two old people were straightened.
so much money! !
Qiu Mingquan forgot one thing, the myth of compound interest growth, ordinary people can't figure it out, ordinary people can't accept the fact that more than 80 yuan can be transformed into such a huge sum of money within ten days!
Grandpa Qiu opened his mouth, and suddenly became frightened: Is there any way to make a child earn so much money in a short period of time!
Grandma Qiu stared at him suspiciously, and suddenly saw a section of red rope protruding from his neck.
With a simple pull, the jade pendant was exposed, and a piece of dense precious light scattered under the dim light, warm and delicate, like frozen cream.
The two old men rubbed their eyes at the same time. Even if they don't have any appreciation ability at all, they can tell that this is by no means a cheap thing.
"This... what is this?"
"I, I picked it up." Qiu Mingquan blurted out, lying hastily, "I picked it up in a tree hole."
At this urgent enough moment, President Feng was still whimpering: "Look, she doesn't feel it when she touches me. Only when you touch me can I feel it."
Grandpa Qiu looked around, suddenly picked up the small bench next to the bed, and hit Qiu Mingquan: "I told you to lie! I told you to be a bad boy!..."
This inexplicable precious jade, this huge sum of money that suddenly appeared, and that concealed and twinkling eyes!
The small bench hit his back, Qiu Mingquan's small body staggered, and his back felt dull pain.
Qiu Mingquan was immediately stunned.
He has been very filial and obedient since he was a child, and he was rarely mischievous. Even in his previous life, he did not remember any time when he was beaten. On his buttocks, the pain made him tremble again.
"Grandpa, I, I..."
"Oh, your family still engages in domestic violence. The poorer you become, the more barbaric you become—" Feng Rui was taken aback, "Hey, hide, aren't you stupid!"
Qiu Mingquan was about to dodge, but when he saw Grandpa's trembling appearance, he was suddenly startled!
In the previous life, my grandfather was in poor health, and the poor family didn't have any knowledge of annual physical examinations. He suddenly had a stroke and died after being paralyzed in bed for several years. In this life, don't advance the cause of the stroke because of something!
Thinking about it this way, he didn't dare to move at all, he was anxious and scared, tears filled his eyes quietly.
Seeing Qiu Mingquan being beaten stupidly, Grandma Qiu was so anxious that she burst into tears, and ran up tremblingly to stop him: "Okay, old man, stop beating, and ask carefully if you have something to say, Xiaoquan is not an ignorant child."
Also said he is sensible? Looking at Qiu Mingquan's reticence, Grandpa Qiu was so angry that his hands trembled: "If he doesn't explain clearly today, I'll just kill him!"
"Heretics! Even the parents who gave birth to you can't beat and kill them every now and then, children are not private property." Feng Rui complained angrily, "What's more, you were adopted."
"You hand over this unknown thing to the police station." With tears in her eyes, she reached for the jade pendant on Qiu Mingquan's neck, "Even if it was picked up, the person who lost it must be very anxious, so let's return it."
Qiu Mingquan was taken aback suddenly and was stunned.
"Hold on! Don't listen to her!" Feng Rui was furious, his usual elegance was gone.
Hell, if he was really stalked by this old woman and handed over to a stranger, it would make the sky and the earth miserable, wouldn't it kill him?
