Chapter 690: All Methods Are Used to Compete in the Business of Sangtian Town!

On both sides of the two printed papers, different recruitment needs of the two towns are recorded. Google search reading

Among them, there are more in Mingyue Town, and the corresponding scale in Sangtian Town is slightly smaller.

First, he roughly scanned it and read the rules marked below. Su Mo roughly understood the principles and requirements of the free market.

With Xiwang City as the center, Mingyue Town and Sangtian Town as subsidiaries, all job postings within this range need to be noted in the job database first.

Only after the note, the recruited people can register their identities under the store and become white households.

When this process is over, the positions in the job database will be secondary distributed in a targeted manner, and part of the matching information will be transferred to the free market with different classifications.

If you want to work in these positions, you must first purchase a basic free identity before you can go for an interview.

Of course, the price of this identity is not expensive for people living in the territory. It only takes 200 trading points to buy it, and it can be superimposed on the original identity without conflict.

However, there is no such thing as a free lunch, and this is where the pitfall lies.

For a freelance electronic worker like Su Mo, there will be no restrictions on the number of interviews.

Even if he finds a new job today and doesn't want to quit after working for two days, he can continue to look for a job here the next day.

But those who have purchased the basic freelancer identity, once they have successfully interviewed and got the job, if they want to quit and look for a job here, they have to pay twice the previous price.

That is, 400 trading points are required to continue to buy.

By analogy, the third time will cost 800 points, the fourth time will cost 1,600 points, and the fifth time will cost a full 3,200 points!

Such a policy is, on the one hand, to stabilize the working environment in the territory, and on the other hand, to protect free market employment and control the occurrence of the "involution" phenomenon.

"No wonder the free market is so quiet"

"I can't leave if I want to, and I'll be exploited if I want to stay"

"For ordinary people, if I run into a black shop with these two hundred points, it would be a big loss"

Su Mo secretly complained about the extreme nature of this policy, and then he put down his mind and began to carefully look for jobs that he was interested in.

The first step is to exclude those unskilled assembly line jobs and simple repairs.

These shops, not to mention the workload and remuneration, are enough to discourage people by not providing corresponding productivity tools.

The second step is to exclude those shops that have more things to do and less room for development.

This kind of shop is obviously a black shop that cheats people, even if you can enter and exit freely with your current identity without restrictions.

Su Mo doesn't want to waste his precious time and waste the early opportunities on entering and exiting.

The third step is to simply pass Mingyue Town. This town is full of crappy jobs. It's better to go to the city to try your luck than to work here.

The fourth step

Step by step, the remaining shops on the list are getting fewer and fewer.

In the end, after selecting four stores, Su Mo decided to go to Sangtian Town in person to observe before making a decision.

Anyway, as long as he reports here, he only needs to sign a labor contract with the store, and he doesn't need to come back here to waste money and time next time.

"Hello, can you help me get the recruitment brochures of these four stores?"

"They are Zero Manufacturing, Zizailiangfang, Ruyi Machinery Factory, and Qiankun Grain Store!"

Sangtian Town.

A large town that has been developed for nearly three years and has a permanent population of more than 20,000. Including temporary personnel from outside, the total population is close to 50,000.

Unlike Mingyue Town, Sangtian Town started from a small farmhouse surrounded by fields.

Until now, it has expanded and expanded, and increased again and again, but it is still surrounded by rolling farmland in the middle, like a red dot dotted on a green jade pendant.

And the purpose of those who come here is also very simple.

Make money.

Make money with labor!

Various magical plants with huge per-acre yields but extremely fragile are destined to require a large number of laborers to harvest.

Winter planting in January, summer harvest in June, and autumn harvest in September.

The Tianyuan Territory officials will even take the initiative to introduce a wave of labor services, recruiting a large number of laborers from surrounding territories to go to Sangtian Town to assist in the harvest.

This salary is not low. If you work hard, you can earn the trading points of working hard for half a year in Qingguo Territory in just two months.

And if you have a little talent, you can stand out and even have the possibility of being selected as a formal resident of Tianyuan Territory.

With such a combination of measures, more than 30,000 foreign populations have been stationed here in advance before the summer harvest in June officially begins.

At the same time, these people who come here need to eat, rent houses, and have various living needs.

Their consumption directly leads to the most intense competition in various industries and shops in the town.

Whoever can survive during this period can eat all the market share into his own stomach, make a lot of money, and move into the city from then on.

If anyone can't hold on at this time, there is only one outcome.

Go bankrupt and leave, even your identity can't be guaranteed!

Zizailiangfang.

It was the first wave of business stores established when Sangtian Town was just established.

At the beginning, their business items were very simple, only various types of food.

And the reason why they could obtain these foods was because of a new policy issued by the territory at the beginning.

Its general meaning is that the magical plants around the territory are growing too fast, and the official harvesters are not enough. If other people are temporarily mobilized, the cost will be too high, which is not cost-effective.

So now it is open to bidding.

For example, if this land can harvest 2,000 acres of wheat, then the territory will be leased to you at the price of 1,500 acres. You can hire people to harvest it yourself, and the harvest after 1,500 acres will belong to you.

Zizai Liangfang just stepped on this bonus at the beginning, boldly leased two plots of land and hired people to harvest, and earned the first pot of gold.

Later, relying on the first wave of profits, they developed faster and faster.

In just two or three years, they have become the top three Liangfangs in the entire Sangtian Town!

However, this kind of unskilled profit point is destined not to make money for a long time.

For example, when the summer harvest of the third year was about to come, this large Liangfang with more than 30 subordinates fell into an unprecedented crisis.

They couldn't recruit people!

Or the people were snatched away by other peers!

In the past, as soon as a job opening notice was posted, the store would be surrounded by crowds of people. After two or three days, only a few old birds came to inquire last year.

Those new workers who came to the territory did not even bother to look at the store, and went straight to the Qiankun Grain Store that was advertised in the village.

Of course, it was not that the Qiankun Grain Store paid high wages, but

"Damn Zero Manufacturing, why don't they have a competitor to compete with them for business, and just sit back and watch them dominate!"

"Damn Qiankun Grain Store, it's so bold that it dared to use this inferior electronic harvester to reduce the workload. Aren't they afraid that there will be problems with the harvesting and all the debts will fall on their hands!"

Sitting on the stone steps at the door of the store, a young woman in her twenties was angrily hitting the ground with a stone, cursing and venting her anger.

Qiankun Grain Store was established just over a year ago, more than a year less than Zizailiangfang.

Since its establishment, Zizailiangfang has habitually started fighting overtly and covertly, trying to monopolize the grain business in the entire town.

But over the past year, whenever Qiankun Grain Store was about to collapse, there would be a strange injection of funds to force them to survive and get through the difficulties.

This led to the Zhang family, who controlled Zizailiangfang, focusing almost all their attention on how to defeat competitors, rather than how to improve their competitiveness and seize the market with strength.

Until the recent summer harvest, as the competition entered a white-hot stage again, just when more than a dozen people in the Zhang family thought they were about to usher in the dawn of victory.

Unexpectedly, "Zero Manufacturing" that suddenly emerged from the town actually joined forces with "Qiankun Grain Store" and suddenly came with a heavy blow to the bottom of the pot.

They took the lead in introducing a "new" technology that has been widely developed in the territory for five or six years on the old-fashioned harvesting tools.

Energy Stone Technology!

They installed tiny energy stones for the sickle used to harvest wheat, and at the same time built a micro motor that can convert kinetic energy and solar energy.

Each swing of this energy stone sickle will use about 40% less strength than an ordinary sickle.

They installed a similar device on the blade head of the rice harvester, and built a vibration motor.

Every time the blade passes over the root of the rice, it will produce a tiny vibration, which reduces the strength even more, up to about 60%.

Because of this advantage, even though Qiankun Grain Store opened a full 20% lower price per worker than Zizailiangfang, there are still countless migrant workers who want to join.

After all, these people who come to make money know this account better than anyone else.

After being beaten for a full year, this wave of magical counterattack is the standard answer given by Qiankun Grain Store.

They changed the track and achieved an effect similar to "dimensionality reduction attack".

Now Zizailiangfang wants to come back to life, unless it develops similar energy stone tools like Qiankun Grain Store to seize the market.

But development is not as simple as talking on paper.

If they go to the Kuanfeng Energy Stone Company in the city to cooperate, they simply look down on their size and can't even enter the company's door.

If they go to cooperate with people outside the city, regardless of their technology, the development time will take half a year or a year.

By the time these people are done, how can the land contracted by Zizai Liangfang Xiashou at a high price catch up?

The compensation for the territory alone is enough to empty the entire Liangfang account, and even multiply it several times, or even more than ten times the debt.

"Dad, no one came to our house for an interview today?"

After sitting at the door and watching the "grand scene" of Qiankun Grain Store at the end of the street for a while, Zhang Min walked into the store in frustration and faced his father Zhang Da, who was already gray-haired behind the counter.

They joined the territory very early, probably in the second half of the first year of the last calendar.

It was the accumulation at that time that helped them open this shop in the fifth year of the last calendar.

By now, the ten people in the Zhang family have almost taken out all their money to get through this difficult time.

Recruiting a worker with short-term development capabilities is one of the important links in their desperate struggle.

"How can it be so fast? Senior electricians are treasures in every territory, how can they look down on our small Liangfang?"

"Besides, Zero Manufacturing is also recruiting workers. Didn't they say that no matter what salary we offer, they will increase it by 20%?"

Mr. Zhang Da, whose head turned pale with worry, was calculating the accounts without raising his head.

Although the summer harvest has not yet arrived, the debt on the books will become heavier with each passing day.

Originally, the store planned well and started paying off debts from the first day of harvest, which was enough to plug this gap.

But now we can’t recruit anyone

"How about we just find an electrician to burn down our land, and then put the blame on him? This way, even if we lose blood, we can still have the capital to turn around."

Approaching his father Zhang Da, the beautiful-looking Zhang Min's eyes rolled around and a plan came into his mind.

In fact, compared to the lack of harvest in the summer harvest, the liquidated damages promised to the territory are what scares everyone.

In order to prevent someone from contracting the land, the harvested grain is taken out and resold outside the territory, which harms the interests of the territory.

Originally, the land contract was based on a high price of 1,800 kilograms per mu, and the deposit had to be paid in one lump sum at the beginning.

But when the harvest comes, if they cannot return the 1,800 kilograms of grain per mu to the territorial grain resources office and get back the deposit, they will have to bear an expensive breach of contract fee.

Judging from the breach of contract fee in this period, it is about five times the deposit, which means that once one acre of land is breached, a full 9,000 kilograms of grain must be compensated.

The Zhang family can never afford this money!

"Nonsense, do you think the territorial guards are blind? You are so obviously pushing the blame. Why won't they suspect us? If they find out then, they will lose their heads!"

Zhang Min's boldness scared Zhang Da so much that he almost stood up.

But when faced with the timid appearance of his old father, Zhang Min felt evil and timid. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was room for maneuver.

"Father, think about it. Now everyone outside knows that Manufacturing Zero cooperates with Qiankun Grain Co., Ltd. to use energy stone tools to seize our market, which makes us unable to find a single migrant worker."

"In a desperate move, we find a group of electricians to come over and develop it. It must make sense, right?"

"Besides, this time we don't look for senior electricians, we look for entry-level or mid-level electricians, and boldly give them development rights."

"We will fund the construction of ten or eight studios and equip them with one for each person. Whatever tools they want, we can even get a loan from a bank in the city to make up for them. They can use it how they want." , you can develop whatever you want!”

"We only need to quietly add some information when they test these new tools, such as slightly changing the circuit inside."

"When the fire breaks out and the land is gone, we don't have to pay liquidated damages, and we might even get some of the deposit back!"

Speaking of the latter part, Zhang Min began to get excited involuntarily.

Before there is a reasonable solution, if you want to maintain the current situation, you can only resort to dangerous tactics.

Only in this way can funds be retained for a later comeback.

"Can you guarantee that when you use your hands and feet, you won't leave any traces?"

Seeing the eagerness on his daughter Zhang Min's face, Zhang Da couldn't help but trembled all over and his mind started to become active.

It is said that as people get older, they become more afraid of death.

After living in the stable Tianyuan territory for seven years and owning a large shop, he has become more and more afraid of losing his current comfortable life and risking his life outside the territory.

And wanting to keep this family business is the same as what Zhang Min said.

Right now, it seems that the only path left is "adventure."

"Dad, don't worry. Although Bowen only knows some simple circuit knowledge, the person we hired is not a master. He will definitely not be able to make any exquisite circuit designs."

"At that time, I just need to make some small plans and let Bowen go in and make some changes. If I increase the power, it will be easy to create a big fire."

Touching her pretty, well-maintained and elastic face, and looking at her curvy body in the full-length mirror, Zhang Min smiled confidently.

Between life and the body, she might still consider it if it were on earth.

But in the wasteland, she knew very well that once she lost the important guarantee of "money", what would be the tragic end of her graceful body once it went to other territories.

"Then try it!"

After walking out of the door, looking at the still crowded Qiankun Food Store door, Zhang Da gritted his teeth and slammed against the door pillar.

There was a scream that could be heard for several streets.

Within half a day, everyone knew that the old man, the shopkeeper of Zizai Liangfang, accidentally hit his head on his front teeth while walking, causing a serious concussion.

At the same time, at the door of Zizai Liangfang, the previous notice recruiting senior electronic workers was also taken away by the new shopkeeper "Zhang Min". After she went to the city to report, it was replaced with a new small notice.

The above requirements are very simple, you only need to be an electrician to come for the interview.

And the number of people has increased from one person before to a full fifteen people!
