Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 105 The Confidence of Wealth Creators
June 6th, Sunday, was just two days after the Dragon Boat Festival.

Red empty pier.

As the various goods on the newly arrived ship were sorted one after another, Cao Yukun, accompanied by lawyer Ah Hao, went through various procedures one by one and paid various fees. Finally, he got his own delivery release note.

The first batch of 200 tons of Qinyuan brand plum juice beverage finally arrived.

From this moment on, it can be said that the work he had been busy for for more than a month has finally come to fruition - it was really not easy.

This was a difficult process that Cao Yukun had never experienced in his two lifetimes.

In fact, being a boss is much harder than being an employee.

However, as a newbie who had never done business before, no matter how hard it was, Cao Yukun was still willing to take the first step himself and try to do everything himself - in fact, it was not entirely for the purpose of reducing costs and minimizing losses if things failed, but mainly because he was timid.

He felt that as a novice in business management, he had to do things himself so that when he encountered similar things in the future, he would have a better idea of ​​what to do instead of just believing what others said.

Now it seems that it’s not bad. I was completely on my own from beginning to end and managed to get through it.

I called the agreed freight company at the dock, and they came quickly, with several large trucks arriving at once. Moreover, the Hongkong Port in this era has achieved a considerable degree of mechanization, so I have to say it was quite fast. 200 tons of cargo, about 260 cubic meters, with less than trips in three trips including machinery and labor, were all taken away before it got completely dark.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, in the large warehouse of Sun Shangbin's Huagang Trading, the freight company received the receipt from Huagang Trading. Cao Yukun signed a check on the spot and directly paid the remaining freight.

This move made the people from the freight company very satisfied. They came over to offer cigarettes and chat with Cao Yukun, hoping that he would continue to use their truck for the next batch of goods.

Seeing that everything was settled, Cao Yukun felt his stomach growling.

He did not meet Sun Shangbin, nor was he familiar with his subordinates. He just took the receipt and left China-Hong Kong Trade. Cao Yukun said to lawyer Ah Hao, "Let's go. I'll find a place to treat you to a meal!"

Actually, Ah Hao likes to eat for free, but I don’t know what happened to him this time. He actually took the initiative to say that he wanted to save money for the boss, and said that everyone could just have a bowl of noodles each. In the end, they decided to go to the food stall near his house to eat.

While eating, he tried to find out, "Actually, after knowing each other for such a long time, I really admire you, Cao Sheng. You are only 19 years old, not only have you accomplished such a great career, but you dared to come to Hongkong alone to venture out, and you have such a big business from the beginning, and you can do everything yourself... You will definitely be a wealthy man in the future!"

Cao Yukun turned his head to look at him with some amusement, then continued eating.

He continued to test her, "To be honest, I don't know if you, Cao Sheng, believe in personal charm. I really do! You are just like that. The longer I spend with you and the more things we do together, the more I can't help but want to follow you!"

Cao Yukun finally couldn't help laughing.

Pulling a tissue to wipe his mouth, he smiled and said, "The annual salary is two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, deputy general manager, do you want to do it?"

He was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses. He was overjoyed, "Yes! Of course! I am very happy that you, Mr. Cao, have given me a meal! Thank you, Mr. Cao, I toast you a glass!"

Cao Yukun picked up the beer glass, clinked it with his, and took a big sip.

In fact, Lawyer Ah Hao is a good person. He came from a grassroots background, studied law, and has been a practicing lawyer for several years. He has an extremely good understanding of the various ecosystems in the red sky. At many critical moments, he has given very useful suggestions. The key is that he also followed me through the whole thing from beginning to end, so he is very familiar with it and understands it very well.

As for hiring people, it's better to work with new people rather than familiar ones. Cao Yukun is willing to use him as a fulcrum to slowly build a small team once the beverage sales go well.

The only concern is that he has a beautiful sister.

During this recent period of idleness, Fang Lijing has found many excuses to go to Cao Yukun. Cao Yukun knows what is going on, and Fang Lijing herself obviously knows what is going on as well.

It's about the love between a man and a woman.

All that’s left is for someone to break the window paper.

Cao Yukun is not opposed to having a relationship with a beautiful girl.

In fact, it has been ten days since she ran home almost every day. Cao Yukun didn't believe that her family hadn't noticed it at all, but it seemed that her family had no objection.

Everything seemed to be going incredibly smoothly.

But Cao Yukun herself knows her situation - there will always be a day in the future when she can breathe a sigh of relief, and when that time comes, all parties will reconcile their accounts and realize, damn, you are also Cao Yukun's woman?
I'm not afraid of what the girl will do, I'm afraid that the one using it is my brother-in-law!
This was also one of the concerns of Cao Yukun in the beginning, as he was reluctant to let his enthusiastic brother-in-law Song Yuhuai return to the beverage factory - it's not that relatives can't be used, and Song Yuhuai is just a little nerdy, he still has some abilities, especially good execution. But if relatives are used in key positions, once the relationship between the relatives breaks down, the consequences will be serious.

But Hongkong was a little special. First, it was not so easy to get out of the way, and second, it was right under his nose. Even if Ah Hao had some skills, he couldn't turn the tables. This was the benefit of doing everything by yourself and experiencing everything first-hand. Or, in other words, this was the real confidence of many first-generation rich people and wealth creators.

I have done everything myself, and everything is under my control. So, the power I give you is yours. If I don’t give it to you, you will immediately be nothing!
Even at the current beverage factory, Cao Yukun still didn't have this confidence, because the beverage factory was not founded by him, the people were not recruited by him, the time they spent together was very short, and he didn't really control the lifeblood of the beverage factory.

He is still afraid that his subordinates will rebel.

"In a few days, after the commercial is aired and the mall ads are hung, we'll see how the products sell! If they sell well, you'll be the deputy general manager!"

"If you can't even sell it... my millions of dollars will be wasted. Just go back to the mainland and you can just continue to be a lawyer!"

"How could that be! Boss, your sour plum juice must be selling well!"

"Hahaha, cheers!"

While drinking, Cao Yukun's mobile phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and took a look. After answering, the voice on the other end of the line was a little soft and delicate, "Hello, Mr. Cao, this is Amin! I, I just want to tell you that I have finished filming that play."

Cao Yukun was stunned for a moment, "Oh, oh... Miss Zhou, hello Amin! So..."

It turned out to be Zhou Aimin.

They met last time when they were shooting an advertisement. Cao Yukun had been traveling back and forth for nearly a month and was physically and mentally exhausted. He could not resist the girl's constant flirting with him. On the way back, lawyer Ah Hao laid the groundwork again. He could not suppress his lustful desire and he really called Zhou Aimin that night to ask her out for tea, but was rejected.

He was a little disappointed at the time, but he didn't take it seriously and forgot about it afterwards.

I didn't expect that after more than half a month, she would suddenly call me back.

I'm just telling you that the previous movie has finished filming...

"My friend and I are eating at a food stall outside. Do you want to come over and eat with us?"

"Is that so... Is that convenient?"

"Of course it's convenient! It's just that the place is a little out of the way. Do you have a car?"

"..."

Fang Zhihao was actually a little stunned and quickly lowered his head to hide his surprise.

He knew that he would definitely not be able to control his expression and would look a little awkward - Ah Jing didn't even help sell the fish when she didn't have classes recently, and she was out almost every day. This kind of thing couldn't be hidden from anyone even once, not to mention that she didn't hide it. She told her family directly that she liked the boy from mainland China.

Her parents were a little hesitant. They certainly didn't want her to date a guy from mainland China, but that guy was so handsome, and his speech and behavior didn't seem like that of an ordinary kid. The key point was that her daughter-in-law had never even met him. When she heard that her sister liked the young boss from mainland China that her husband was dating recently, she immediately agreed - Fang Zhihao himself, of course, agreed.

Those words that were used to flatter Cao Yukun were not really flattery. Ever since he took over the business from Cao Yukun and was used by him as a secretary, Fang Zhihao really felt that this young boss from the mainland had an indescribable unique temperament. He did not have the rusticity of the mainland guys that were common in this era, nor the timidity and humility of worshipping Hong Kong. Instead, he had a kind of light arrogance and peace that was above everything else. So he judged that this Mr. Cao would definitely make a fortune in the future!
What's more, he is actually very rich now!
He and Ajing are together, a perfect match made in heaven!

Ajing is so beautiful, she will definitely marry a rich man in the future!

However, neither he, Ajing, nor anyone else in the family had ever thought about whether Cao Yukun already had a girlfriend, or might have a girlfriend at any time!
Miss Zhou, Amin...

It is no exaggeration to say that during the time that Cao Yukun has been working for him, almost every person that Cao Yukun has met in Hongkong was met in front of Fang Zhihao!
Then obviously... it's Zhou Aimin!
That night, I encouraged him, and he really called Zhou Aimin? But he shouldn't have, since I never heard him mention it again, and I never saw him answer a girl's phone call before.

However, Zhou Aimin took the initiative to call him!
Looking up and taking a quick look at the face of the person sitting opposite him, Ah Hao's heart suddenly twisted - just like Ah Jing who fell in love with someone at first sight, no matter how much of a star Zhou Aimin is, once she meets this person, this face, it seems that she is not much better than Ah Jing!
This is terrible!

Should I tell Ajing when I get back?
Will she be very sad?

However, it seems that she just went to Cao Sheng's house recently, saying that they were helping each other practice speaking. I didn't hear that she had started pursuing Cao Sheng, and Cao Sheng obviously didn't pursue her either!

If that’s the case, how can we stop Mr. Cao from dating someone normally?

What's more, the other party is a big star, that equally beautiful beauty!
