The Era of Hard Work

In the county town, only the Telecom sales office sells mobile phones. Now Telecom has not yet separated, and there is only one mobile phone business, and there is no other semicolon.

I bought it from another place, and if they say they won’t give you access to the Internet, they won’t give you access to the Internet, so I just watch it with a mobile phone.

For telecommunications, this is a non-competitive sale.

In fact, the mobile phone business is not valued very much within China Telecom. Lu Dong once heard a chatter from a mobile guy, saying that most of the group that China Telecom assigned to China Mobile back then were people who were not welcomed by the leaders and colleagues of Telecom in various places, and then they were kicked out. Going out of telecommunications to mobile to sit in the cold Yamen, who knows that it has been 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi.

Qingzhao and Quannan, and even Taidong as a whole, are basically dominated by China Mobile.

Lu Dong came to the telecommunications business department in the county seat, parked his motorcycle, and went directly to the mobile phone store. Unexpectedly, there were many people and the business was very busy.

After inquiring about it, I found out that after 1999, the cost of mobile phone network access dropped sharply, but it took time from top to bottom. When the policy reached a small county like Qingzhao, the lunar calendar year was over.

In the past, the mobile phone Internet access fee was worth half of the price of the mobile phone, but now that the tariff has been reduced, it has attracted many people who could buy it or not.

These days, no matter you are doing business, or bragging about the mountains, you take out your mobile phone and put it on the table, everyone has to look at it more often.

When strangers meet, what do they see? After all, the first glance is external.

Therefore, any businessman with a little brain knows about cars, clothes, mobile phones and outfits, which are very helpful for business negotiations.

Lu Dong entered the sales department and went to the mobile phone counter to look. A saleswoman from China Telecom came over and took a look at him. She didn't say anything and just ignored him.

It's a normal business.

Lu Dong took the initiative to ask, How do you sell these mobile phones?

The female salesperson took a closer look at Lu Dong. She was dressed very neatly, but she was young, so she said in a normal tone, Look for yourself.

While speaking, she handed Lu Dong a quotation sheet, which included the price and performance introduction of various mobile phones.

It is unrealistic to expect employees officially established by public institutions to give you detailed recommendations.

Lu Dong picked up the list and compared it with the real thing carefully. The cheapest mobile phone is the domestic panda, but it is a bit big and the quality is hard to say.

Ericsson has a relatively small, new model called 768C, which still has a colored casing, but the cheapest one here costs more than 7,000.

Lu Dong doesn't need to be fancy, he just needs to be able to make and receive calls, and at most he can send and receive text messages.

Other games, self-made ringtones, and colors are all negligible to those who have ever used a smartphone.

No need to think about new mobile phones, tens of thousands at every turn.

Lu Dong looked for the old model that went on the market last year, and quickly found a suitable model, Motorola GC87C, which was launched in the Chinese market in the first half of last year. The price is relatively inexpensive. It has a Chinese display function, can send and receive text messages, and has dual batteries. , one of which is a lithium battery.

Looking at the real thing again, it is considered small and exquisite in this era.

Comrade! Lu Dong waved to the salesman, Help me take a look at this phone.

The one who didn't come here before came over a little girl in her twenties, not too tall, with a round face that looked like an apple.

She was very enthusiastic: Which one do you want to see?

Lu Dong pointed to the black mobile phone inside the glass counter: This Motorola.

The little girl showed the prototype to Lu Dong, and said at the same time: The price of this mobile phone has just been reduced, and it is a good time to buy it now. Before the Gregorian calendar, someone asked us to ask for two at a time. It cost a total of 15,000 yuan, and the Internet connection fee was spent later. It costs 6,000 yuan, and it costs more than 10,000 to co-author a mobile phone. If you buy it now, it only costs 5,500 yuan, plus the Internet access fee.”

She is much more active than her colleagues: The network access fee has been reduced to 1,000, which is very cost-effective.

Lu Dong asked, No discount? Can you give me a discount?

The apple-faced girl dimpled with a smile: I'm sorry, I really don't have any.

Telecom is similar to Tie Boss, you don’t need to think about bargaining, and the prices are all clearly marked.

Unless it's a trustee, it's not worthwhile for Lu Dong to owe favors to buy a mobile phone.

In many cases, human debts are more difficult to repay than monetary debts.

Knowing that bargaining was impossible, Lu Dong didn't hesitate, and said, Okay, you can get me a new one.

The apple-faced girl smiled and went to get the goods, and soon brought a large rectangular box, and took the initiative to open it to help Lu Dong test the machine.

Lu Dong tried his mobile phone and said in a low voice, You have a much better service attitude than your colleagues.

The apple-faced girl glanced at her colleague who was ignoring customers, and her voice was lowered: Because I am a temporary worker, my salary is very low, and I don't get much money if I don't sell goods.

Lu Dong understood that the previous one had a formal establishment, and the harvest was guaranteed in drought and flood.

Probably more or less wages are about the same.

For the rest, it is a fixed process to pay money to open a bill and apply for a number, and then Lu Dong got a 136 number.

Having been in business for so long, how many people will be affected. He chose a number that no one pays much attention to certain homonyms these days. The ending number is 59188.

This Motorola became Lu Dong's first mobile phone.

The first one was Nokia, which took six or seven years.

After applying for the card and connecting to the Internet, Lu Dong called Heidan first, but he hadn't seen him for seven or eight days, and he didn't know what Heidan was up to.

The call can only be made to the brigade of Stone Village, and then Heidan can call back only after the brigade notifies Heidan.

Lu Dong then called Lu Chun again and told him his cell phone number, which would make it easier to contact him in the future.

Throwing the mobile phone in his pocket, he packed the box with the convenience bag provided by China Telecom, and Lu Dong went out of the mobile phone store to go back to the village.

It was cold and there were not many people outside. As soon as Lu Dong went out, he saw a huge gold bracelet lying on the sidewalk in front of him. The sun shone on it and reflected golden light.

Again? Lu Dong retreated to the mobile phone sales department, stood in an inconspicuous place, looked out through the glass door, and sure enough there were people nearby.

The bicycle bell rang, and a woman was passing by on a bicycle. When she saw the gold bracelet, she jumped out of the car and wanted to pick it up. A man picked it up before her.

Then, two passers-by, a man and a woman, walked up to each other and said what about the gold bracelet.

Taking advantage of the three people surrounding the woman, Lu Dong turned around, took out his mobile phone and called Team Zhang, and waited for the other person to connect, explaining in a few words.

Put away the mobile phone, turned around, the three people were still talking around the woman, the woman seemed to be a little moved.

The scam is very simple, but when people are greedy, their heads are often full of money.

Among the three, the two men looked very familiar. If Lu Dong read correctly, they should be the two men who gave him the necklace last time.

Thinking of the necklace, he touched his chest subconsciously. He always wore a safety pendant, which was given by Heidan.

Liars are often very patient, and they are not in a hurry when they see the woman's emotions.

If you want to defraud people of money, it is easy to show your feet when you are in a hurry.

The county seat is not big, and it was Lu Dong, a well-known gold-medal informant, who made the call. Soon, Lu Dong saw a familiar old Santana and a van drive up one after the other.

Before those people could react, Team Zhang, who got off from Santana's co-pilot, surrounded him with five or six people.

A woman acting as a passerby stood a little far away and wanted to run.

Lu Dong came out from the store, pointed at her and shouted: She is also a liar!

The woman was stopped within ten meters of her run.

All three crooks were arrested.

The arrested people were stuffed into the car, Team Zhang educated the woman on the bicycle, and came to find Lu Dong.

Okay, well done! Team Zhang and Lu Dong knew each other very well, and joked, We opened just after the Chinese New Year.

Lu Dong said: I met them once before. They didn't lie to me. I didn't expect to meet them again today when I came to buy a mobile phone.

Team Zhang said simply: I just asked, this group of people went to Pingcheng a year ago, and they met you just after they came back to open their business a year later. He asked, Is that your mobile phone number? You even bought a mobile phone Yes, did you make less money years ago?

Lu Dong smiled: I just work hard and do business according to my duties.

That's a good word. Captain Zhang understood what he meant: No matter what you do, you must abide by the law.

The gang of swindlers caught did not need to be carefully examined to know that they were wandering around. It is estimated that they have caused troubles in surrounding counties and cities. Acknowledging Lu Dong's affection, he asked, Lu Dong, have you offended Han Tao from Ningxiu?

Han Suo? Seeing Team Zhang nodding, Lu Dong said, No? I haven't seen him a few times in total. Let me think about it. Once two thieves came to my house to steal something and I caught them. Another time, when Cheng Lifeng reported the crime, he came to mediate on the spot...

He said briefly: Could it be about Cheng Lifeng?

Team Zhang couldn't say it well, and reminded: When you meet him in the future, be careful, and be careful.

Lu Dong said seriously: I understand.

Thinking about it carefully, that Han Tao didn't seem to have done anything excessive.

But still pay attention, in this line of work, it is too easy to cause trouble for others.

It doesn't even need to be illegal.

Team Zhang said: Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I have to go back to work.

Lu Dong watched the group get into the car and leave.

It is estimated that this group of scammers have committed many crimes, and they can come up with a series of cases when they go back.

Lu Dong went to push the motorcycle, got on the car and turned on the ignition, the phone rang, took a look, it was the number from Heidan Village, hung up and called again.

The other side quickly picked up, and Heidan's crisp voice came over: Lu Dong, have you bought a mobile phone?

Lu Dong said: I just bought it, and there will be many things in the future, so it's convenient to get in touch. Hei Dan, write down my number, and you can call me at any time in the future.

Okay! Heidan seemed to be in a good mood: I need help with something, so I'll call you.

She asked, When are you going to University City?

Lu Dong said: I went there today and looked at the shops that have been built. I estimate that the house will be handed over when I come back in fifteen. He suggested: Hei Dan, the money in your hand is useless, I suggest you Buy a house or shop in Xuefu Wenyuan.

Heitan believed Lu Dong: Okay, let me think about it carefully. In the past two days, I was reading books borrowed from the Provincial University, and they all said that the money will only retain its value if it is invested, and it will only depreciate if it is kept in my hand.

Lu Dong agreed: Yes, think about it. When we were in middle school, what can be bought for one dollar, and now what can be bought for one dollar. This is the most obvious comparison.

Dongzi, why are you here? Someone came on a motorcycle from the road and saw Lu Dong at a glance.

Just in time, Lu Dong finished the phone call with Heidan and said, Come to buy something.

The price of the mobile phone comes from my father's first one, and there may be differences in regions. I asked the old man and he said it was less than 6,000. I can't remember the exact number.
