516, Postal Savings
The affairs of Tang Lihuan and Wei Ruicai were strongly recognized by parents of both sides, and they agreed that this was a good relative that could not be found even with a lantern.
Only Ruicai's father Wei Ziyuan thought that his daughter would be condescending to anyone she married. She tilted her mouth and drank a sip of the tea in the small purple clay pot: "That little zhi... will be cares about her. {that boy will feed the cards}"
Wei Ziyuan said this, but he was very satisfied: just by speaking the Javanese language that was windy everywhere, the boy actually understood 99% of the time, which shows that he had put in some hard work.
Because now it is in the busiest twelfth lunar month, the Tang family plans to ask the matchmaker to the Wei family to propose marriage after the spring is on the agenda. Ruicai may have to spend the Spring Festival next year at the Tang family.
Whenever Xiaoxiao thinks of this, he is happy from the bottom of his heart.
For this reason, I also asked the two of them in a very gossipy way.
"Second brother, do you still remember? When did you first meet Ruicai?"
Tang Lihuan said without hesitation: "It was the night of August 15 last year, at Jikong Bridge."
Xiaoxiao turned around and asked Ruicai again: "Ruicai Ruicai, where was the first time you met my second brother?"
Ruicai thought for a while: "It was the midsummer of last year, the Wen family's rose banquet. At that time, we were in the rose field, covering our faces with fans, and he came over and played your brain..."
"oh……"
Turning back, he went to find his second brother: "You are heartless, Ruicai knew you two months ago!"
...
The twelfth lunar month is about the most fulfilling month of the year. The entire Kyoto is decorated with red colors, and everyone is busy with the New Year.
Like other shops in Kyoto, Xiaoxiao’s magazine plans to open until the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, and to have a good banquet on this day, and have paid off the annual salary, which is considered an annual leave, and will open until the 16th day of the next year.
Many of the houses in the magazine were neatly placed, and seals were posted outside. Xiaoxiao was busy with everyone when he suddenly saw Xiao Dier coming and said, "Girl, Mr. Meng Qi is here, and he has also transported a large truck of New Year's goods here!"
Xiaoxiao never expected this character to come here at this time. Fortunately, his "office" had not been sealed yet, so he asked Xiao Dier to prepare refreshments and planned to receive Meng Qi there.
Meng Qi looked like he was very mature and ordered the servant beside him: "Hurry up and transport all the mutton to Miss Tang to see!"
Xiaoxiao ran out of the yard to see it, but saw more than a dozen fat sheep killed on the Meng family's cart, Meng Qi laughed and said, "I have always wanted to thank Yingyuan. They happened to buy good mutton from Mongolia and celebrate the New Year again. It was the day when various shops hosted shopkeepers, so I came to borrow flowers to offer Buddha!"
This is the first time Xiaoxiao received gifts from a magazine. Since they were all delivered to the door, it is naturally difficult to refuse. Just as he was about to thank Brother Meng Qi, he suddenly heard him say: "Since we are business friends, this mutton should be delivered to the shop. The meat is all divided, and each serving is worth more than 500 kilograms in total. How can you guys share it?"
"Thank you, Brother Meng Qi, for thinking!" Xiaoxiao no longer politely to Meng Qi. She looked at the mutton that had been divided on the cart, and she felt moved: "I don't have so many people here. The magazine and photo studio are only thirty people in total!"
The housewife laughed and said, "It's really time for these good meats to come. Half an hour later, everyone will go home for the New Year~" As he said that, he leaned over the car and looked at the fresh mutton, "We have all the best tastes with Master Qi!"
Xiaoxiao then ordered Tuanxi to share it with everyone, and then opened the door of the office himself: "Brother Meng Qi is so thoughtful. I have never thought of giving New Year's goods to the guys during the Chinese New Year in the past two years."
"I've also bought good meat, otherwise I'd just give some money to the guys." This was the first time Meng Qi came to Xiaoxiao's office. Looking at the tough and stylish furnishings in the interior, I couldn't help but appreciate it.
"It's still affordable. When a family eats mutton, they can also say a few good things about the boss!" Xiaoxiao personally poured Meng Qi with rolling black tea.
Meng Qi did not sit down immediately, but curiously fiddled with the Jiushan bonsai on the table, put the two little people at the foot of the mountain on the top of the mountain, and then picked out three little people from the cave and placed them on the carriage at the foot of the mountain...
Xiaoxiao has become accustomed to Meng Qi's behavior at this moment. Friends who come here always have to make new changes to Jiushan bonsai.
"How is Meng Qi's Civil and Information Bureau ready?" Xiaoxiao asked.
"There are fifteen rooms that are ready, and the 16th day of the first lunar month should be officially opened!" Meng Qi's eyes shone when talking about business, and no longer ravaged the poor bonsai. She sat down honestly and picked up the cup to warm her hands.
"That's good. After the remaining dozen 66 rooms continue to open, the express delivery industry in Kyoto should be able to cycle. Then, if you take on some surrounding businesses, the radiation will become wider and wider."
Through many conversations with Xiaoxiao, Meng Qi had fully understood the meaning of radiation, and smiled at the moment: "It's just that your magazine is busy, and these thirty people are definitely not enough."
Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully: "I have interviewed ten people and I can officially start working in the beginning of spring."
"But, those special receipts specially used to buy express commodities are a bit troublesome, and someone may give up buying because of this trouble." Meng Qi expressed his concerns.
Xiaoxiao has been doing a lot recently, but he has not stopped thinking about new businesses. He often comes up with new ideas before going to bed. On the second day, he goes back and forth in his mind several times to determine its value.
"You seem to have something to say in Yingyuan?" Meng Qi blew the tea in the cup.
Xiaoxiao simply told her, otherwise she would be very depressed: "I have indeed developed some immature ideas recently. The reason why I didn't ask Brother Qi to discuss it in time is because... this idea may be contrary to Brother Qi's previous thoughts."
"Oh? What idea? But it's okay!" Meng Qi always listened to Xiaoxiao's ideas. Even if he couldn't take action, it would be very satisfying to open up his imagination.
"If this idea is implemented, Brother Mengqi may have to return to his old business." Xiaoxiao looked at Mengqi with his eyes fixedly, "Open the money house again."
Meng Qi smiled bitterly: "Although that business is a huge profit, the boss is checking tightly, and I'm afraid there is no chance to open it again."
Meng Qi said this and was a little curious for a moment. Xiaoxiao has always supported her to turn her business from underground to above ground. Why did she talk about reopening her old business today?
Xiaoxiao said, "What I'm talking about is a serious money-making business."
Meng Qi was even more confused: "What is the relationship between this money house business and express delivery? The Civil and Information Bureau mainly focuses on delivering items, and mainly uses transportation."
"I thought about it carefully. At first, our ideas about magazine mail order and express delivery may work, but if more and more people buy in the future, it might be messy."
"How to mess up?"
"Brother Qi thought about it. When more and more people buy, wouldn't all buyers flock to the magazine? No matter how big the magazine is and how many people I hire, I can't even greet more and more buyers! And after I get the news, I have to notify the seller and your Civil Information Bureau as soon as possible, how many people I need here! It's simply not enough to add a hundred people."
Meng Qiyi was unable to get the point: "How can the business be so popular? It's not enough to add a hundred people?"
"Does Brother Qi feel that we are putting the cart before the horse?"
"How do you say it?" Meng Qi scratched his head, "I'm stupid. Yingyuan must explain it thoroughly to me!"
Xiaoxiao nodded, took a sip of tea to moisten her throat: "So, the magazine is currently the center point, and all links must be passed through the magazine. What if we think from the perspective of others and change the center point to the Minxin Bureau?"
"Then...how can people believe us?"
Xiaoxiao laughed unconsciously after hearing this: "What did Brother Qi say? Business is based on mutual trust, not to mention that Brother Qi's Civil and Information Bureau, which is spread throughout Kyoto, can't help but believe it!"
Meng Qi was very helpful to hear this and nodded, "That's not, there are at least thirty branches when I drive them."
"That's the reason! Brother Qi thought, is it cost-effective for buyers to rush to my magazine? Or is it more convenient to find a civil and information bureau nearby?"
After hearing this, Meng Qi opened some tricks: "Yingyuan continues to say it!"
"The Civil Information Bureau is spread all over Kyoto, and the Civil Affairs Bureau can be found at the doorstep or near the homes of the people. This is the biggest advantage! Let's take the mail order as an example. When readers see the goods they want to buy from advertising magazines, they can find a Civil Information Bureau nearby, hand over the product number and payment to the Civil Information Bureau, and then the Civil Information Bureau contacts the seller, and can directly pick up the goods from the seller and send them to the buyer's address!"
Yes, it turns out that this is so convenient.
Xiaoxiao said again: "In the process of delivering the money one after another, the express delivery fee can be deducted, which is convenient and easy to save trouble! There must also be various receipts involved, and these are the guarantees of the Civil Information Bureau!"
Meng Qi was so excited: "I knew this trip was not in vain! I didn't expect that there would be such a good idea in English!"
Five hundred kilograms of Mongolian lamb are really not given in vain...
Meng Qi seemed to have thought of something again: "Then... what does the money shop Yingyuan mentioned just now have to do with this matter?"
"It's a big deal!" Xiaoxiao slapped her thighs excitedly, "Brother Qi can turn the Minxin Bureau into a money house model! It is said that the Minxin Bureau is giving goods, but it should also give money, so that it can bring greater convenience to people, right?"
"That's the reason..."
"Let me say so! If the Minxin Bureau and the money shop are combined, at least those sellers can set up an account directly at the Minxin Bureau. Every time the government collects the buyer's money, they can deposit the money directly into the seller's account, so that they don't have to send it with the money, which is safer! In order to save trouble, those old buyers who often advertise and shop can also use the Minxin Bureau's account. At that time, they can just dial the money directly into the seller's account!"
Meng Qi widened his eyes, and never expected that the business could be combined like this: "Yes, yes, it's very convenient! Moreover, I have my own way to turn over these funds in the Civil and Information Administration. I can do it even if I encounter good deals, so I won't waste this wealth."
These words are believed. After all, Meng Qi started his business by opening a money shop. No matter whether it is underground or on the ground, since ancient times, these money shops have never been able to stick to the money shop to make money. Rolling stones does not produce moss. Only by making money can you make small money.
Meng Qi naturally can do these things well without Xiaoxiao teaching them.
At this moment, Meng Qi kept rubbing his hands: "But there is really you, Yingyuan, where did you come from these wonderful methods? A business model like this must be unprecedented! The People's Information Bureau adds money shops, which is a great idea, and it's such a great idea!"
Xiaoxiao's voice came to Meng Qi's ears with great clarity: "In fact, combining postal delivery and savings can be called postal savings."
"I don't know any postal savings. Anyway, the Civil Affairs Bureau's method of adding money houses is a great idea! With this, Yingyuan, I must give you a share! You must not refuse."
This reward was indeed very tempting, but Xiaoxiao refused: "Seventh Brother doesn't have to do this. My magazine advertisements are considered to be a cooperation with you. If there are too many other combinations, it will inevitably be messed up. Seventh Brother will get married in the future. What's the point of me putting a piece of kids here? It's inappropriate."
Meng Qi was stunned, but he didn't expect Yingyuan to think so far away.
"I'm already very moved by Brother Meng Qi to have this kind of heart."
Meng Qi said solemnly: "Okay, this matter is yours, but you must also remember that I will be your brother in the future, no less than Tang Lihuan's friendship with you!"
