The office of the scrap steel reselling business was located in the current backyard of the dispatch center. It used the house where Wang Youli originally lived. The house was severely exposed to the west, with peeling walls, brick floors, broken windows, and all the sundries inside.

I cleaned it out and put two broken tables on it, which were only eight or nine square meters.

But at least it still has a place to work.

At the beginning, they didn't plan to hire a treasurer, so Gu Yan would temporarily take care of the accounts. They would hire someone when there were too many accounts and they were too busy.

A week later, Zou Shihong returned to his post, and their scrap steel reselling business officially kicked off!

On the first day when Zou Shihong came here, he brought two large boxes of books and materials and put them on the table. The originally empty room suddenly had the atmosphere of an office.

The sales model previously planned by Gu Yan and Xiao Qi was to buy scrap steel and give away equipment, but Zou Shihong directly rejected Gu Yan's proposal as soon as he arrived.

To be able to use such a large amount of scrap steel, Hongfeng Manufacturing Plant really needs an equipment. When it first entered the market, the price of this equipment was only about three to four thousand yuan, but now it has risen to five to six thousand yuan per unit.

Well, the current market value of scrap steel is not that high, so they simply can’t afford to send equipment!

Zou Shihong directly told Gu Yan and Xiao Qi that he planned to recycle all the existing 1,000 tons of scrap steel in Qinan Steel Plant.

Gu Yan and Xiao Qi were immediately shocked. Not to mention the funds required to purchase these steel materials, how much space would be needed to store these scrap steels, manual loading and unloading, vehicle transportation... these all cost money!

Xiao Qi was a little confused. He stared at Gu Yan as if he was stupid.

Their office was small and it felt boring after staying there for a long time. Zou Shihong smoked heavily and the air in the room was not circulated, so they simply talked in the yard.

Zou Shihong looked at the reactions of Gu Yan and Xiao Qi and sneered, "I wonder why you want to buy all the scrap steel?"

Gu Yan frowned, "Monopoly?"

Zou Shihong glanced at Gu Yan, his eyes a little surprised, "We have a monopoly on scrap steel, and those manufacturers that have already installed scrap steel processing equipment will have to buy from us," he said with a slight smile, "Then the entire market will be ours.

never mind!"

Gu Yan admired Zou Shihong a little. He looked at Zou Shihong. He came up to dominate the market. Unlike them, he just planned to resell the scrap steel and make money!

This is the pattern, you deserve the high shares you get!

"Qinan Steel Plant still has more than 1,000 tons of scrap steel. How much can we pay for it per ton?" Xiao Qi asked excitedly.

Zou Shihong put the butt of his cigarette out in the ashtray, "I'm going to buy it for five to eight yuan a ton. Xiao Qi, you have a wide range of options. You and Xiao Gu are responsible for finding the venue and the transportation vehicles. I will be responsible for it."

Let’s talk about the price and try to get this thing implemented within a week. One more thing, we have to make a phone call. It’s inconvenient to do things without a phone.”

"I don't have money to pretend." Gu Yan said straightforwardly.

Nowadays, installing a phone is not like installing it for free in modern times. Nowadays, you may not be able to install it even if you spend money, and it also costs thousands of dollars!

Zou Shihong... frowned and said, "Go to the department store and buy some gifts for the ladies. I'll handle the phone calls."

Gu Yan asked neatly, "Watch or cosmetics? There are cosmetics from Shanghai, which cost less than a hundred yuan a set."

Zou Shihong glanced at Gu Yan again, "Let's take cosmetics."

To be honest, Zou Shihong was quite surprised. Xiao Gu was an easy-going person. Few women could react so quickly. At least he had never encountered such a woman in his more than ten years of work. He had two skills.

Gu Yan bought the cosmetics that day, and Zou Shihong took them away the same day. The next day, someone came to install the phone for them. Except for the phone machine, which required them to pay, the installation and cord removal were free. The installation workers also asked Gu Yan to tell them

What kind of relative is the director’s wife?

As soon as they asked Gu Yan, they understood. No wonder the installation speed was so fast. Zou Shihong was originally looking for the wife of the director!

Gu Yan laughed and said, "Where are the relatives? Don't talk nonsense."

People have a strange psychology. The more others deny something or refuse to say anything, the more they think you have something, so Gu Yan refuses to admit it. The more they deny it, the more those people think they really have some relatives.

relation.

After the phone was installed and the numbers were available, Gu Yan copied three of them, leaving one for Grandma Jiang, one for Wang Youli, and one for Huang Qiuying.

In the 21st century, people all use mobile phones, and landlines are becoming less and less common. Gu Yan no longer cares about them, but those guys are very curious about them. The phone is installed, you can use it to listen to it, and I can use it to listen to it.

I can't bear to put it down. In fact, if I don't dial it out, the other person won't speak, and all I hear is the standby sound!

Gu Yan told them that they could only use the office phone to make calls unless it was urgent, and they were not allowed to use the phone for anything. After all, the current phone bill was too expensive, and they were not yet luxurious enough to chat without limit on the phone.

It is not easy for Xiao Qi to find a site, because this does not require unloading three tons or five tons of scrap steel, but thousands of tons. Zou Shihong said that his target is not just Qinan Steel Plant. If their business does well, other steel mills will be unloaded.

He also collects scrap steel from the factory.

For several days in a row, Gu Yan and Xiao Qi rode bicycles, covering all the viewing venues in Qinnan City, south of the city, north of the city, east of the city, west of the city, riding from morning to night...

The wind was strong in autumn, so they went outside the city more often. They were either facing the wind when they went there or when they came back. Gu Yan and Xiao Qi wished they could ride bicycles for more than ten hours a day. At the end of the day, all their physical strength was exhausted, not to mention their hair.

It was all covered in dirt, and her face was completely bald. Gu Yan’s scalp went numb when she saw the bicycle!

On the first day of cycling, Gu Yan's thighs were worn out. She couldn't take off her pants when she got home at night. The worn skin stuck to the pants, and it hurt when she pulled them off.

Gu Yan went to the drug store and bought hydrogen peroxide, iodophor, gauze and Yunnan Baiyao. When the hydrogen peroxide was poured on the wound, she burst into tears. Damn it, it didn't hurt that much!

The root of my thigh is worn out, my legs are sore and painful, and my butt is split into several parts when I ride a bike. I don’t dare to touch the seat of the bike. What else can I do? I’ll bandage the wound and continue working the next day!

It would be nice to see progress, but the key point is that it is difficult to have such a large venue anywhere.

Finally, Xiao Qi came up with an idea. He said that he knew that there was a large area of ​​wasteland near the Yellow River beach in the north of the city. He didn't know whether the area belonged to the village or was not cared for by anyone. They could rent it and buy some cement.

, sand, bricks, get some workers to surround the place, and make do with two workshops to guard the courtyard.
Chapter completed!
