Chapter 76 God of Wealth

In Liu Biao's opinion, Xu Qiang's request was simply too much.

Not to mention changing jobs, just the indicator of agricultural to non-agricultural conversion is not a simple matter.

The superiors only give the factory less than ten quotas for rural-to-urban workers every year, and on average, none are allocated to the workshops below. Many workshops only get one quota every three to five years, which shows how valuable the quotas are.

Just like Xu Qiang's father has worked in the factory for more than ten years but still has not been converted to a regular employee. This is very common in the factory. Those workers who get the quota to convert from rural to non-rural employment are either those who encountered emergencies and made great contributions to the factory, or they are the model workers of the factory that year, almost without exception!

After all, this is a major event that concerns the future and fate of hundreds of rotation workers working on the front line in the factory, so the allocation of quotas must not be subject to any favoritism or fraud, and Liu Biao has always been very strict about this.

However, if Xu Qiang can really help the factory win this technical transformation project and obtain hundreds of thousands of transformation funds, it will be considered a great contribution to the factory, and he can also be allocated a quota for agricultural-to-non-agricultural employment.

"Don't worry, Director. I will make good preparations." Hearing that Liu Biao agreed to his request, Xu Qiang suddenly became excited.

"Also, you don't have to go to work these two days. I will talk to your Captain Sun later and tell you to go back and fully prepare for this provincial meeting!" Liu Biao said in a commanding tone.

The matter was of great importance, so Liu Biao did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. Giving Xu Qiang a holiday was just a matter of a word for him.

"That's great."

"Then you can go back."

"Oh, right." Xu Qiang seemed to remember something, so he asked, "Director Liu, if the province approves this project, I will definitely win the first prize in our factory's military-to-civilian recruitment activity this year, right?"

That was a bonus of 800 yuan, equivalent to nearly two years' salary for an ordinary worker. Naturally, Xu Qiang wanted to fight for it.

"You're still thinking about this?" Liu Biao was so angry that he laughed and said, "If you succeed this time, the first prize will definitely be yours! Don't worry about that!"

"That's good……"

After hearing this, Xu Qiang left with satisfaction...

……

In the evening, Xu Qiang came to the classroom of the workers' night school as usual.

What surprised him was that a lot of people came to the class today and surrounded Wang Yongsheng who was sitting in the back row.

"Brothers, let me tell you something. I may not be able to stay in this night school anymore. If you want to buy soap and shampoo, you can go to the Theater Street Vegetable Market to find me. I guess many of you know me..." On the desk in front of Wang Yongsheng was the soap that Xu Qiang had wholesaled to him. He continued, "We are classmates. I won't say anything else. I will give discounts to anyone who comes to buy things from me. If anyone dares to cause trouble for you in the future, just mention my name..."

Wang Yongsheng's words are an old saying, but this man is indeed loyal, so even though he often fights and makes trouble in the factory, his reputation is still good.

After yesterday's exam, Wang Yongsheng felt that he would not be able to stay in this night school any longer, so he came here early today and called students from other classes over, preparing for a 'farewell sale'.

"Can it be cheaper? This bar of soap is too expensive..."

"The soap outside is only 85 cents, but it becomes 1.1 yuan here?" "Yes, it's cheaper." Some female students also followed behind and said.

It is obvious that this soap is indeed very popular, especially the attractive fragrance, pleasing color and appearance, which really make many female workers like it.

In addition, since the last shampoo cream was a great success, many people know that they can buy some "Shanghai products" from Wang Yongsheng, so they have some trust in the quality of the product.

Wang Yongsheng was really excited that the soap sent by Xu Qiang was so popular. After all, this was a gamble in which he bet his entire fortune. If the product could not be sold, all his years of success would be ruined.

However, the only thing that makes Wang Yongsheng feel regretful is that he cannot stay in this workers' night school for a longer period of time. After all, there are many high-quality customers here, and intellectuals seem to like these daily chemical products that look high-end and exquisite.

"I'll give you a discount of 1 cent, one dollar a piece. This is already the purchase price. If it's any lower, I'll lose money." Wang Yongsheng frowned and said, "Also, each person is limited to two dollars. I won't sell more than that! Buy now if you want!"

Seeing this scene, Xu Qiang secretly felt amused. This Wang Yongsheng was indeed a profiteer. He bought the soap from him at 70 cents a piece, and the profit was nearly half of that by just buying a piece directly. What was even more interesting was that this guy actually started the "hunger marketing" and limited the purchase to two pieces per person. In fact, he didn't bring many pieces today, so it was impossible for him to sell more even if he wanted to.

So when it comes to doing business, sometimes it really depends on talent. Wang Yongsheng is obviously hundreds or thousands of times better at this than he is at studying.

"Give me two!"

"I want two too!"

"I don't have enough money. Can I owe you money first?"

In less than ten minutes, the dozens of soaps Wang Yongsheng brought were sold out. Humming a little tune and counting the money in his hand, Wang Yongsheng looked very proud.

"Brother, your stuff is really good." After seeing Xu Qiang, Wang Yongsheng asked him to sit next to him, and then he said, "My soaps are almost sold out. When can you send me another batch?"

Since cooperating with Xu Qiang, Wang Yongsheng's profit rate has indeed doubled. In the past, when he sold things, he could only make the difference between wholesale and retail prices. Moreover, the things were not easy to sell and there were often backlogs. In the end, he could only reduce the price and did not make much money at all.

But nowadays, things that cost a few hundred dollars can not only be sold at a high price, but also sell quickly. Wang Yongsheng naturally makes a lot of money, so much so that when he sees Xu Qiang now, it is like seeing the God of Wealth.

"I'll be resting tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If that doesn't work, I'll go to Shanghai myself and ship the things to you," said Xu Qiang.

"How can you rest for two days? Isn't Sunday the day after tomorrow?" Wang Yongsheng asked in confusion.

"The village is busy with farming these days, and I need to go home to help with the work, so I asked for two days off..."

"Uh." Wang Yongsheng nodded and said with disdain: "How much money can you make from farming in your village in a year? If you are willing to help me get the goods, I guarantee you will make more money than farming..."

Just as Wang Yongsheng was trying hard to win over Xu Qiang, yesterday's invigilator walked in with a pile of test papers.

Seeing that she was holding yesterday's test paper, everyone in the classroom suddenly became nervous.

"Let me ask you something..." The retired teacher adjusted his reading glasses with his hand and frowned as he said, "I have already graded yesterday's test papers, but why are there three students named Xu Qiang in your class?"
