Protagonist:
Li Xiulan
The next morning when he got up, Wang Erhai's head was muzzy and heavy; he had drunk too much alcohol yesterday, to the point that his body could barely take it — he did not have his eldest brother's capacity for liquor.
But even though his body felt a bit unwell, he still had to get up early and go to the company.
Right now the Shanhai Real Estate branch company in this small county town had only just started up, and there were still a great many things to be busy with.
The things that needed doing, he did not dare slack off or neglect for a single moment.
As for those grumbling words he said to Wang Xiaohua last night, they were merely words spoken in passing.
There are many rules in this world that cannot be changed, especially the unspoken rules; one can only change oneself to adapt to the rules.
By now the company's fire-safety issues had been resolved; next, the employees needed to be trained.
Previously they had already hired ten or so employees; among these employees, the majority were salespeople.
Anyone who has worked at a real estate agency knows that the most core competitiveness of this line lies in the salespeople's own abilities, so training the salespeople so they can face clients better — this point is extremely important.
As for finance and administration staff, they were rather dispensable by comparison.
Accounting can be outsourced to let others help do it.
And administration can be simplified; handling it single-handedly is fine.
After all it is a small company, not a big company of hundreds of people.
Many things can be simplified from complexity; only the sales side must not be taken lightly.
Fortunately Shanhai Real Estate long ago had a mature training system; previously in Guangzhou they had already accumulated some experience, and training happened to be something Wang Erhai personally grasped, so this matter was not really difficult for Wang Erhai.
In a flash several days passed; after training was completed, Wang Erhai again went non-stop to find sales channels and talk cooperation with developers.
On the Guangzhou side, Shanhai Real Estate could not obtain first-hand building channels.
But in this small county town, relying on Niu Chunsheng this connection, Wang Erhai easily obtained the sales qualifications for several housing projects.
The county town circle is very small; the real estate circle is even smaller — those who can do real estate development are no more than those few people, those few enterprises.
And these enterprises, on the surface they appear to be competitive relationships, but in reality they are cooperative relationships.
Everyone huddles together for warmth.
Whether it is sales pricing, or property prices, or various preferential supporting facilities — all must be discussed together and receive everyone's nod of agreement before you can proceed.
If everyone disagrees yet you forcibly proceed, then everyone will squeeze you out, making it impossible for you to get by in this small county town.
When Niu Chunsheng first started Spring City Real Estate he was not too clear on this doorway, which is why he encountered difficulties everywhere; now he not only let Huangsheng Group take a stake in his Spring City Real Estate, but also gave the property management rights to Nanqiang, becoming one of their circle — many things became twice the result with half the effort.
Learning that Shanhai Real Estate had this Niu Chunsheng connection, they naturally were willing to let Shanhai Real Estate sell their houses, and moreover gave many preferential policies.
A small county town is a society of personal connections; today I help you, tomorrow you help me, everyone makes money together — only then can life be relaxed and comfortable.
If it were like big cities doing cutthroat competition, even fighting to the death, mutually assured destruction — that is absolutely unacceptable.
This day Wang Erhai received another social-drinking invitation.
This time it was Niu Chunsheng who actively invited him; he heard that Huangsheng's General Manager Zhang would also attend.
Wang Erhai had long heard of General Manager Zhang's great name; after all, Huangsheng Hotel could be built next to the County Government Building — its energy is so great, who dares slight it?
Toward Niu Chunsheng's invitation, Wang Erhai naturally accepted gladly; not only did he accept gladly, he was also very grateful to Niu Chunsheng:
"Uncle Chunsheng, many thanks for thinking so highly of me, inviting me to attend such an important dinner; when the time comes I will certainly put on a good performance in front of General Manager Zhang."
These were Wang Erhai's words from the heart.
These days returning to the county town to develop had made him deeply realize the importance of personal connections.
If you have no connections, even a fire permit can make you run your legs off.
And you still might not succeed.
But if you have connections, people will enthusiastically take the initiative to come to your door to help you handle affairs.
Niu Chunsheng said with a smile:
"Erhai, what are you being polite with me for? Whether Spring City Garden can make a name for itself in one shot still depends on you."
Wang Erhai then said:
"Uncle Chunsheng, rest assured, I will definitely not let you down!"
In a blink it reached seven o'clock in the evening.
Wang Erhai actively went to Spring City Real Estate to see Niu Chunsheng, then together with Niu Chunsheng went to Huangsheng Hotel.
General Manager Zhang has a rule: when he attends dinner gatherings, he generally only attends at Huangsheng Hotel; dinner invitations at other places, he basically does not go to.
After all, Huangsheng is the highest-grade place in this small county town; only the highest-grade place is worthy of his status.
Besides, Huangsheng is his own industry; eating there he also feels at ease.
Very quickly, Wang Erhai and Niu Chunsheng arrived at Huangsheng Hotel; in a VIP private room, they met General Manager Zhang Sheng.
General Manager Zhang also has airs, but compared to the airs of those people in officialdom, they are a bit smaller.
A mere section chief of the fire department deliberately arrives half an hour late, waiting for you to arrange everything before showing up.
This General Manager Zhang, on the other hand, actually took the initiative to arrive early and even took the initiative to arrange everything.
When Niu Chunsheng brought Wang Erhai into the private room, besides Zhang Sheng there were also quite a few guests inside.
They were all unfamiliar faces Wang Erhai did not recognize.
After Niu Chunsheng had Wang Erhai greet General Manager Zhang, through General Manager Zhang's introduction Wang Erhai learned that the other guests in this room were mostly General Manager Zhang's capable subordinates.
"President Wang, this is my Huangsheng Sales Department's Sales Champion, Liu Mei Qi! Regarding the ins and outs of property sales in this small county town, if there is anything you don't understand, you can communicate with her!"
Zhang Sheng pushed Liu Mei Qi forward.
Liu Mei Qi had a sweet appearance, barely out of her twenties, very young and beautiful.
That's how real estate sales work—a good figure and looks are a great bonus; if you lower your own bottom line even further, you'll never lack clients.
Relying on her excellent figure and looks, plus her eloquence, it was normal for Liu Mei Qi to become the Sales Champion.
"General Manager Wang, please take care of me in the future!"
Liu Mei Qi smiled and took the initiative to toast Wang Erhai.
Wang Erhai smiled and gave a polite response:
"Miss Liu, it's I who should say please take care of me. Doing real estate in this County Town, I'm still a rookie with a lot I don't understand—you could be my teacher!"
Liu Mei Qi said with a smile:
"How about we add each other on WeChat?"
"Okay, okay! Being able to add Miss Liu's WeChat, I'm flattered beyond measure!"
Wang Erhai said flattering words with his mouth, then added Liu Mei Qi's WeChat.
At this moment Zhang Sheng smiled and spoke to Wang Erhai:
"General Manager Wang, I plan to let Mei Qi cooperate with you, striving to buy out Spring City Garden. I don't know if you have any opinions?"
As soon as Zhang Sheng said this, Wang Erhai was stunned inside.
Only then did he understand that Zhang Sheng had organized this meal with a purpose.
And his purpose was to station Liu Mei Qi at his Shanhai Real Estate.
