Chapter 390: The venomous scholar Xu Damao, with his wild ambitions, sets the whole prairie on fire!
Xu Damao's answer really surprised Wu Youde.
Electric fan...rent out?
Wu Youde’s first reaction was: How can I rent out the fans?
But then he thought again, it seems that the fan can be rented, so why not?
If I can rent a girlfriend, why can’t I rent a fan?
Moreover, in this day and age when “electric fans are scarce and precious commodities”, this fan can even be rented out!
Afterwards, Wu Youde had new questions.
Who is Xu Damao going to rent the fan to?
This thing uses electricity, and electricity is a scarce commodity nowadays. If the other party can afford electricity, but can't afford an electric fan, why would he need to rent one?
After a moment's thought,
Wu Youde also couldn't figure out what Xu Damao was doing, so he asked, "Da Mao, who are you going to rent this fan to?"
What he didn't expect was that Xu Damao actually said, "Zhang Cuihua."
Zhang Cuihua!!
What the hell!
This is crazy...
Wu Youde was immediately shocked. He asked in surprise: "Zhang Cuihua? She wants to rent a fan? Why does she rent a fan?"
After thinking about it,
He then asked, "Is Zhang Cuihua so rich now? Still planning to use an electric fan?"
"Hehe... Angkor Wu, you're thinking about something else."
Xu Damao smiled very proudly, and whispered: "She rented the fan not for enjoyment, but mainly for business."
"Business?"
Wu Youde thought of Zhang Cuihua’s business. How could selling meat be related to electric fans?
Xu Damao smiled and said, "Brother Wu, it's too hot today. When Zhang Cuihua is doing business, the doors and windows have to be closed tightly.
I heard the day before yesterday that she almost had heatstroke. Not only her, but her customer also almost had heatstroke.
Then some people were reluctant to come to her place because they thought it was too hot!
So I gave her an idea. Use an electric fan. That thing spins so fast and creates a whirring breeze, which is really cool!
We have electric fans, and as for electricity, you have it at home, Brother Wu. We have everything ready.
You tell me, how could she not agree to such a good thing? "
Wu Youde: "..."
Looking at Xu Damao who was talking eloquently, Wu Youde suddenly felt a sense of awe!
This guy is a genius!
It's really hard for him to come up with such a weird idea...
Wu Youde discovered that he seemed to have underestimated him in the past.
"Da Mao, your idea... is good."
"Hahaha... Wu Ge, you think it's good too? Oh, then we really think alike. I think it's good too!"
"that is……"
"Hmm? Angkor, what is it? Just say it if you have something to say. It's okay, just say it."
"Da Mao, have you forgotten that this fan does not belong to you, but to the four of you? Have you discussed the idea of renting it out with others? Do they agree?"
"Um……"
The smile on Xu Damao's face froze and he smacked his lips twice.
"Brother Wu, this is what I was thinking. No one is using the fan now, right? It's just sitting there, so why not rent it out and make some money?"
Wu Youde nodded, "That's true, but if the first and second uncles knew about it, would they agree to you pursuing your own personal gain?
Or, are you going to give them a share of the profits?"
"Sharing the profits?"
Xu Damao's eyes widened and he shook his head decisively, saying, "How is this possible? I have already negotiated a deal with Zhang Cuihua, why should I let them take advantage of it?"
Wu Youde shook his head and said nothing more.
In his opinion, it is impossible for him to have the whole thing to himself. Be it Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong, or Sha Zhu, none of them are easy to fool.
If they knew about this, they would definitely cause trouble for Xu Damao.
If Xu Damao insists on doing it his own way, it is very likely that he will end up in a miserable end. Wu Youde does not intend to say much. He wants to wait and see what happens and see what kind of brain Xu Damao has.
……
On the second day,
When Xu Damao ran over excitedly and said he wanted to pull the wires, Wu Youde knew that he had already done the job, and he was very curious about the process.
"Da Mao, tell me the details."
"Angkor, this is..."
"Even if you don't tell me, I can ask an old man or Zhuzi, and I'll know everything once I ask them."
"Don't, don't, don't, Angkor! Please don't..."
Xu Damao suddenly became anxious and waved his hands to stop him, his heart full of annoyance and regret. If he had known earlier, he would not have told him so much. Now the other party had a handle on him.
That's fucked up.
"Brother Wu, this is also good for you. If you don't rent out the fans, they will just sit there idle. How can you collect the electricity bill?
One dollar a day!" said Xu Damao.
Wu Youde shook his head and said calmly: "Da Mao, I can earn one dollar if I write sixty or seventy words now."
"..."
Xu Damao was confused and speechless.
After a while,
He was unwilling but helpless, so he could only say: "Well...I called the first uncle, the second uncle and Sha Zhu over yesterday.
I said I want to withdraw my shares. I don’t want this fan anymore…
............"
Xu Damao started talking a lot.
As he spoke, Wu Youde's expression gradually changed, and the way he looked at Xu Damao also changed.
Things are like this,
Xu Damao told the other three companies that he wanted to withdraw his shares, but the other three companies definitely disagreed.
Xu Damao insisted on withdrawing his shares. If he didn't, I would eat at your house, drink at your house, sleep at your house, and when your children got home from school, I would beat him up...
Well, the main point is that he is a scoundrel and shameless!
This made Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong very angry.
Sha Zhu doesn't care, he is not afraid. "You, Xu Damao, dare to come to my house and make trouble. Do you think I can survive?"
But Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong cannot do that. Firstly, their fighting ability cannot compare with Sha Zhu's. Secondly, they have families and children at home, and they are tied down and cannot risk fighting with others.
What's more, his family has children who are in school.
What if Xu Damao really does something stupid and blocks his children after school? What should he do then?
When the negotiation situation reached a stalemate,
Xu Damao suddenly complained that this electric fan was shared by four families, which was too cold. On average, each family only used it for more than an hour a day. What could it be used for?
It has been cool for more than an hour, but when the time is up, won’t it be hot again?
It would be nice if I could use it all the time...
If he could use it all the time by himself, he would rather use it for a month and then not use it for the next few months!
Hey?
His complaints immediately attracted Yan Bugui's attention...
At last,
After some discussion between Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong and Sha Zhu, the three families decided to let Xu Damao's family use the electric fan alone for one month, and then not let him use it for the next three months.
The condition is,
Don’t ever talk about withdrawing shares or not wanting fans again, such nonsense!
In this way, Xu Damao reluctantly and half-heartedly took over the "exclusive right to use" the fan for a period of one month.
……
After listening,
Wu Youde was filled with admiration. It was already mid-July, and if he had exclusive use of it for a month, it would be exactly until mid-August.
Although the weather was still very hot at that time, it didn't last too long.
At worst, we can discuss it with Yan Bugui and his family later...
This abacus really makes a lot of noise!
Wu Youde asked curiously, "Da Mao, how much rent does Zhang Cuihua give you per day?"
"Hehe...Brother Wu, there's no need to say this." Xu Damao smiled, with a hint of flattery on his face.
Wu Youde glanced at him and thought that given Zhang Cuihua's personality of either taking advantage or suffering a loss, she would definitely not give him too much rent.
At most, the rental fee won’t be more than one dollar a day.
Even Wu Youde felt that fifty cents was difficult to earn.
However, Xu Damao didn't want to say it, nor did he want to force him too much. After thinking about it, Wu Youde found a loophole.
"Da Mao, is Zhang Cuihua's business so stable?"
"I mean, can she make full use of these five hours? It's impossible for there to be endless customers every day, right?
And she didn't even take a break during these five hours?
Damao, are you too optimistic? I'm afraid that after all your efforts, you will only get a few days' rent in the end..."
Hearing this,
Xu Damao nodded and gave Wu Youde a thumbs up.
"Angkor, you have a keen eye!"
"Hehe... But I have also thought about the problems you mentioned. Not only did I think about them, but Zhang Cuihua also thought about them!"
Huh?
Wu Youde immediately became interested and asked in surprise, "So, you already have a way to deal with it?"
"Yeah!" Xu Damao said, looking up.
Wu Youde straightened up and asked, "Da Mao, tell me about it."
Without waiting for Xu Damao to refuse, he continued, "Da Mao, you don't want Uncle One, Uncle Two, and Sha Zhu to know that you lied to them, right?
You said, if they knew that you secretly rented out the fans to make money but didn't give them a penny...
Are they willing to give you exclusive access for a month?"
Xu Damao: "..."
He was so regretful that he really wanted to slap himself twice!
"Brother Wu, please don't tell me. I only told you these things because I trust you. Otherwise, I wouldn't tell you!
You can’t betray my trust, Angkor…”
"Well, I don't want to betray your trust. But whether I want to betray your trust or not depends on your performance..."
"..."
Xu Damao pondered for a while with a bitter face, and then whispered: "Brother Wu, you must keep this a secret!!"
"Well, don't worry, I'm tight-lipped."
After a pause, Wu Youde said calmly, "I am just curious. I am not interested in your affairs at all and have no intention of interfering."
"Hey, hey, hey, I knew you were the most open-minded, Angkor!"
After getting Wu Youde's assurance, Xu Damao finally felt relieved. He still believed in Wu Youde's assurance. In his heart, Wu Youde was now a person of another level.
People just write a few words every day and earn thousands in royalties!
In addition to the abnormal ability to make money, the social status and reputation are now also quite high, high enough for people to look up to.
What a great writer!
It was so popular that dozens or even hundreds of readers came to visit in person!!
How could such a person care about a few cents with me?
Xu Damao organized his words and whispered, "Zhang Cuihua is planning to expand her business recently."
What?
Expand business???
Wu Youde was stunned for a moment and even doubted his own ears.
Damn, this butcher can still expand his business? How can he expand his business?
