Listening to Chen Zikun's words, Xiong Xiling's heart moved, and said: "Hoarding is not strange, you can talk about it carefully." ”

Chen Zikun took the burden and untied it, and there were two account books inside, and said: "I don't know how to keep accounts, I only briefly recorded the entry and exit of two items, Xiong Lao knew it at a glance,"

Xiong Xiling took the account book and carefully browsed it, the first one was to record the expenses, and every expense for the purchase of iron mesh was clearly listed, including price, quantity, handler, expenses, and the cost of purchasing wood, saws, axes, planers and other tools, and finally the labor costs, how much salary each person received, all of which were on it.

The second book is recorded in the account, Xiong Xiling noticed that the price of the iron screen window screen door sold is very low, he is a person who has also served as the chief financial officer, and he is familiar with the economy.

Slowly, Xiong Xiling's brows relaxed, he didn't believe it when the police department complained, but now he finally understands that everything Chen Zikun does is for public welfare, not for personal gain.

"Well, tell me why you're making this deal." Although he had forgiven Chen Zikun in his heart, Xiong Xiling still maintained a serious expression.

Chen Zikun said: "The reform of the dung industry, a long way to go, related to the livelihood and health problems of thousands of practitioners and even millions of Beijing citizens, is by no means a matter that can be solved overnight, the authorities must start with a simple start, this is the management of public toilets, the day the rules are introduced, is the time when the price of various materials such as iron gauze, lime, disinfectant and other materials rise, no business is not treacherous, this is inevitable, but the extra money manure valve will definitely not be willing to bear, the health bureau will not be willing to bear, in the end it falls on the public, I buy iron screen, It's about saving this money for the citizens. ”

Xiong Xiling thought so, and nodded frequently: "Go on." ”

Chen Zikun said: "I buy a lot of iron mesh on the market, in order to empty the inventory, the merchant naturally gives me a low price, I am afraid that the fecal valve will cut corners when making the screen window by himself, so he will organize his own manual processing, because the public toilet is frequent, the screen door must be made of solid materials to be durable, I make the screen window screen door, the screen mesh is double-layered, the wood is also hardwood, and the nails are more than the general household doors and windows, even so, the selling price is still two percent lower than the market price, of course, there are some small profits, I have sent them to the workers, They were my neighbors who lived in a compound when I first came to Beijing, and I don't think it's an exaggeration to find them some work to earn a little money. ”

Xiong Xiling sighed: "You have good intentions, but there are still people who slander and distort them, can these two account books be placed in my place, I will go to the police department tomorrow to help you seek justice." ”

Chen Zikun said: "The gentleman is frank, the villain is often related, I don't care about their slander at all." ”

Xiong Xiling nodded secretly, this kid's open-mindedness is really the same as Tan Sitong in his memory.

In fact, Chen Zikun was scolding in his heart, fortunately Lao Tzu kept his back hand, otherwise this time he would have been really overshadowed by them, and the person who secretly stumbled did not need to guess to know that Ma Lao Wu would fall into the hands of Lao Tzu in the future, and you would be good-looking.

Xiong Xiling almost wronged Chen Zikun, and felt a little uneasy, so he said: "I heard that you, as the owner of the car factory, took the lead and pulled the car yourself, why is this?" ”

Chen Zikun said: If you don't pull the car yourself, how can you know the hardships of the driver, and the purpose of my car factory is not to provide me with fine clothes and food, but to give the poor people who have no means of living a way to live.

Xiong Xiling said: "Well said, I really didn't misunderstand you, I set up the Xiangshan Salesian Home for displaced orphans, and you set up a car factory for the toiling masses who have no means of living, we are on the same path, and now young people like you are really rare, so let's sponsor you ten foreign cars." ”

Chen Zikun immediately refused: "Old Xiong, don't." ”

Xiong Xiling was not surprised, on the contrary, if Chen Zikun agreed, he would wonder, although he was rejected, he was even happier, "In this way, I will invest in ten foreign cars and give me dividends every year, so it will be okay." ”

Only then did Chen Zikun get up and thank: "Thank you, Mr. Xiong, with your ten cars as a shareholder in our Ziguang Depot, at least it can solve the livelihood of 20 poor people, and then 20 families will no longer suffer from poverty and hunger, I thank you for them." ”

After speaking, he bowed deeply.

Xiong Xiling was even more emotional, this son is a chivalrous man with a heart and a heart for the community, and he is by no means an ordinary man.

……

Chen Zikun took a check from Xiongfu and came back, went to the Bank of Communications to withdraw 1,300 yuan in cash, and took Uncle Xue and Bao Qingye to Dongfuxing Automobile Dealership to buy a car.

Dongfuxing car dealer is also the only one in Beijing, the foreign car made by his family is made of solid materials, exquisite craftsmanship, wooden beams with carving, of course, the price is also expensive, usually the dignitaries buy for private use, Chen Zikun They arrived at the place, a guy came to greet: "How many of you, buy a car?" ”

Baoqing said: "Yes, buy a car, call your shopkeeper to come over." ”

The guy said, "I'm sorry, the shopkeeper is talking about business, what, I still have something, why don't you take a look first, our cars here are expensive." ”

This is a bit of a dog's eye to look at people, although Dongfuxing's car is expensive, it is only thirty or forty yuan more expensive than ordinary foreign cars, the guy is looking at Chen Zikun They are dressed neither like the owner of the car factory, nor like the housekeeper of the rich family, thinking that they are the coachmen who generally want to buy a car and do their own work, this kind of person is the most difficult, not much money in his hand, but a lot of requirements, the most difficult to serve.

Bao Qingqi's nose was crooked: "Do you have such a business, the co-author's money is not money?" ”

As he spoke, he put the purse bag containing silver dollars and banknotes on the counter: "Master buys ten new cars." ”

The guy was dumbfounded, the shopkeeper who was talking to the customer in another part of the store heard the sound, he was much more eye-catching than the guy: "Ouch, isn't this the shopkeeper Xue, what kind of wind blew you here, these two are?" ”

Baoqing said: "This is my father, this is our Boss Chen of Ziguang Depot." ”

The shopkeeper immediately clenched his fists: "Look up for a long time, sit down, come and make tea." ”

Ziguang car factory is a rookie in the foreign car industry, although there are not many cars, all are purple round car carved cars produced by Dongfuxing, and they are all equipped with four calcium carbide lamps, such a pompous foreign car, in the whole Beijing is also the only one, used to be handled by Baoqing, so the shopkeeper was particularly impressed by him, and determined that Ziguang car factory will soar in the future.

The shopkeeper took out the front door and put cigarettes on them, and apologized: "You sit down first, and I'll come over as soon as I'm done talking about the business over there." ”

As he was talking, the guest over there walked over, and at first glance it was still an old acquaintance, it turned out to be Yu Deshun from Yu Ji Dung Factory, dressed in a robe and coat, and wearing a melon skin hat, like a decent person.

"Old Yu, you also came to buy a car, for your own use?" Chan asked.

Yu Deshun said: "How can I have that score, don't I want to get you a few cars, what, I took two more official thatched houses in the alley today, all thanks to you." He smiled mysteriously, as if it was a secret between the two of them.

Chen Zikun understood what he meant, and like Xiong Xiling, he also wanted to thank himself in the name of buying shares, since people had this meaning, he couldn't refuse, so he said: "That's great, let's go together, it can be cheaper." ”

The shopkeeper of the car dealership also understands that the co-author is a group purchase, and it will not work without a discount.

There are a total of thirteen cars, all of which are purple painted carriages with four calcium carbide lamps, and the total price is 1,600 yuan, which is a big deal even for a time-honored brand like Dongfuxing.

The shopkeeper attaches great importance to it, there is not so much stock in the car dealership, but the wheels, carriages, horns, lights and other large parts are ready-made, he told Chen Zikun that he will immediately arrange for people to rush to work overnight, and he can pick up the car tomorrow.

Chen Zikun paid a deposit, left Dongfuxing with Yu Deshun, found a teahouse to sit down, and discussed with him how to distribute dividends.

"I still don't believe you, you can divide what you say." Yu Deshun was full of pride, because he knew in his heart that Chen Zikun was above board, so he didn't want any valuable dung, so how could he take advantage of his own petty profits.

……

The next day, Chen Zikun brought more than a dozen people to Dongfuxing car dealership, thirteen brand-new foreign cars were draped in red and hung with colors, decorated with a new style, Chen Zikun paid the balance, pulled up the first car, and set off with his brothers, thirteen new cars were dazzling, with two small flags tied to the handlebars, and four big characters were written on it: "Ziguang Depot".

The thirteen coachmen are all strong young men of the right age, wearing blue cloth trousers, white socks and black shoes, revealing neat energy, running even more flickering with the wind, without pulling people, they pulled the empty car along the Forbidden City's most prosperous place to yo-yo three times, in Chen Zikun's words, this is called a live advertisement.

Back to the Ziguang Depot, a group of people have been waiting at the door for a long time, all wearing decent clothes for visitors, the big locust tree at the gate of the courtyard hangs five hundred rings of earth red, from a distance to see the convoy coming over and lit a cannonball, crackling and exploding, the ground is full of red confetti, revealing festivity.

Ziguang Depot added 13 new cars in one go, plus the previous seven cars, the total number has reached as many as 20, although it is not enough to catch up with those large car factories that often have 1200 cars, but it is also enough to reach the scale of a small car factory.

Yu Deshun also brought a few entourages to congratulate, last time he came to find fault and fight, but this time he came as a shareholder, the feeling is naturally different, Xue Pingshun and others are also polite when they see him, Yu Ye is long and Yu Ye is short to greet, Yu Deshun is very happy in his heart, and unconsciously puffed up his chest and took out the style of "dung king".

Thirteen cars lined up in the alley, the idlers of the neighbors stopped to watch, they were amazed, the only one in Beijing who used the car of Dongfuxing to pull the work, and the installation of four calcium carbide lamps was no other semicolon, listening to the praise of passers-by, everyone in the car factory smiled on their faces.

An old man in a robe and a horse coat came over with an entourage from afar, Chen Zikun saw that he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, Yu Deshun saw that this old man had an extraordinary bearing, so he asked Xue Pingshun: "Who is that person?" ”

Xue Pingshun said lightly: "You don't know this master, it's our Boss Chen's close friend, Mr. Xiong Xiling, former Prime Minister of State, oh, he is also the major shareholder of Ziguang Depot." ”

"Oops! It's his old man. Yu Deshun's eyes widened, and his admiration for Chen Zikun was even more like a surging river.

Xiong Xiling was chatting with Chen Zikun, when he suddenly saw his housekeeper panting and said a few words to himself.

"Prepare the car, I'll go over." Xiong Xiling said.

The housekeeper said: "This morning, my wife took the family car to Xiangshan, and she hasn't come back yet, or I'll call you a foreign car." ”

Chen Zikun said: "What is the foreign car called by the depot, I'll come." ”

After that, he pulled a new car out and said, "Old Xiong, you get in the car." ”
