Chapter 409 Locking Home Appliances
"Dad, how many people are there in the department store now?" Lin Xi asked.
After hearing his son's words, Lin Jiaqiang suddenly cheered up. Last time, his son promised to help him find a way, but these two days he was busy comforting the employees in the department store and didn't care about asking Lin Xi.
"There are 26 salespersons and 16 managers in the department store, three of whom have recovered from illness, a total of 45 people." Lin Jiaqiang replied quickly.
During this period, he has been working on the affairs of department stores and is very clear about the relevant situation. These basic situations can be said to be blurted out.
After hearing this, Lin Xi smiled twice and said, "Salesman 26 and 16 cadres. This cadre is still in charge of two employees!"
Lin Jiaqiang naturally could hear the meaning of his son's words. His face was hot and he didn't explain anything. This situation exists not only in department stores, but also in other units, and he doesn't know whether to open his mouth.
With a crack, Lin Jiaqiang lit a cigarette and said to his son, "Lin Xi, can you help me figure it out? I have no way now."
If Lin Jiaqiang's words are heard by outsiders, it must be strange. You, a county party secretary, can't do anything. What can you do, a 20-year-old teenager?
"Dad, since I told you about this problem last time, I have kept it in mind. If you really have no other way, I'll give it a try!" Lin Xi said seriously.
After hearing his son's words, Lin Jiaqiang breathed a sigh of relief. During this period, he can be said to have broken his legs for the affairs of Qingyuan Department Store. Sometimes he even doubted whether he was the county party secretary or the experience of the department store.
Although Lin Jiaqiang made so much efforts, the results were still very small. In the end, it was even revealed that the employees of the department store besieged the gates of the county party committee and county government.
After a short relaxation, Lin Jiaqiang suddenly woke up. He asked Lin Xi, "Lin Xi, if you take over the department store, what are you going to do? You can't do it because this is what I'm doing, and..."
"Dad, you worry too much! You are the secretary of the county party committee, but not the manager of the department store. I still know this clearly. Lin Xi said.
Lin Xi's words mean that he didn't mean to tell Lin Jiaqiang that he didn't want to help the other party, so he didn't care to take down the department store.
After listening to this, Lin Jiaqiang put the teacup on the coffee table and said, "I'm relieved that you can think so, but what are you going to do if you take over the department store?"
Although he said he was relieved, how could Lin Jiaqiang be really relieved? He was listening to Lin Xi's thoughts.
"Home appliances!" Lin Xi looked at his father and replied decisively.
"Home appliances?"
"Yes, it's household appliances." Lin Xi said, "Dad, don't you think the county has changed a lot in the past six months? I believe that this situation will continue. As time goes on, people will gradually have more money. At that time, household appliances will be very popular.
After hearing this, Lin Jiaqiang looked at the TV in the living room through the closed door of the study. Although this is also colorful, the size is too small to feel comfortable in the hotel.
Despite this idea, Lin Jiaqiang is still a little worried. He looked at Lin Xi and asked, "You think it's okay to make household appliances. If no one buys them, what will you do?"
After hearing this, Lin Xi thought to himself, how could it be possible? From now on, white goods will gradually enter thousands of households and become a necessity in people's lives.
Naturally, Lin Xi can't tell his father about this situation. Besides, even if he says it, the other party can't believe it.
"Dad, since you are doing business, there must be risks. Take Dongsheng Furniture as an example, where is there no risk?" Lin Xi said, "Before, when I was going to open a Dongsheng branch near Fuleju, they were not optimistic about this idea, but practice proved that this idea was very good at that time."
In order to dispel his father's concerns, Lin Xi had no choice but to talk about Dongsheng. He didn't want his father to worry about the home appliance store all day long.
After listening to Lin Xi's words, Lin Jiaqiang pondered for a moment and said, "This is different from your Dongsheng branch. On the one hand, you have experience in home, and on the other hand, there are people to help you do it. If you are engaged in household appliances now, you have no experience and no partners. In case of loss, you will not only be passive, but also the county will be passive.
After hearing this, Lin Xi thought to himself that I went out halfway to make furniture, and household appliances are my old job. I really don't need any partners in this industry.
Lin Xi can only think about this in his heart and can't talk to his father at all. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Dad, don't you have any confidence in your son? As for the county, which is also passive, do you think the county is not passive enough?
Lin Xi's words have two meanings. First, let his father believe in his ability; second, the county is now anxious. What else is there to worry about?
After hearing this, Lin Jiaqiang looked at his son for a while before slowly pulling out a cigarette from the cigarette box on the table. Seeing this, Lin Xi picked up the lighter on the table and banged for it.
After smoking two cigarettes in a row, Lin Jiaqiang said in a low voice, "Lin Xi, if you have to do it, I can let you try it, but you must remember that you can't be a fat man in one bite, and you can't dig a well on a bridge."
"Dad, I know. This can be said to be my second business. I know it and will never mess around." Lin Xi said firmly.
Lin Jiaqiang nodded slightly when he saw his son's performance. At least the other party didn't make this decision because he was hot-headed for a while, which was very good news for him.
"Lin Xi, it's not easy to do this. The only requirement in the county is to pay at least two months' salary to the employees of the department store first." Lin Jiaqiang said in a low voice.
The employees of the department store blocked the door of the county party committee and county government, which not only caused an uproar in Qingyuan County, but also attracted great attention in the city. Zhao Qingming, the county party secretary, and Zhu Changxin, the new mayor, called Lin Jiaqiang respectively, asking him to deal with this matter in the shortest time and never hand over the conflict.
After two or three days of coordination in the county, the people of the department store have seen no substantial progress. They have released the wind. If the county does not solve the problem for them, they will have to go to the city leaders to respond to the problem. This is the reason why Lin Jiaqiang has been busy until midnight these two days.
After hearing this, Lin Xi frowned slightly. What he needs most now is money. When he was in Xucheng Wansha, the reason why he asked Sun Dongqiang and Li Jiajun to explore new veins was also to solve the financial problem as soon as possible. Money has now become a bottleneck restricting the development of Dongsheng.
Lin Xi put the teacup on the coffee table and said to Lin Jiaqiang, "Dad, if I take down the department store and then mortgage the bank, can I approve it?"
Lin Jiaqiang took a look at his son and said, "If it's something else, it's not impossible, but now the department store is the focus of the county. If you do this at this time, it's easy to have something to happen."
Because they are father and son, they naturally don't have to hide their words. Both of them are very straightforward.
After hearing this, Lin Xi frowned into Sichuan. Now the funds of furniture stores and coal mines can only maintain their own operation, and they can't withdraw money at all, and the loan road is not necessary. Lin Xi is really a little difficult. Where on earth should this money come from?
Lin Jiaqiang saw his son's performance and said in a low voice, "Lin Xi, if you really can't do anything about it, I'll help you in the bank. It's definitely not possible to use a department store mortgage loan. If you use Dongsheng Furniture City, it's feasible, but it seems that you still have a loan that hasn't been paid off before!" Regarding Dongsheng, when Lin Xi talked about it to his parents last time, he basically made it clear, so Lin Jiaqiang is still very familiar with the relevant situation.
After hearing his father's question, Lin Xi nodded and replied, "The 200,000 yuan was mortgaged by Dongsheng Qingyuan Store, which has nothing to do with the two stores in Yuzhou."
