Chapter 65 Will find a big tree to enjoy the shade

As the saying goes, "You can enjoy the shade by leaning on a big tree with your back".On the road of life, finding a tree to enjoy the shade for yourself can avoid many unnecessary setbacks and troubles, so that the road to success can go smoothly. "Borrowing a big tree" is a magic weapon for many successful people to achieve success. Hu Xueyan, a businessman in the late Qing Dynasty, can be said to be as rich as an enemy. The reason why he achieved amazing wealth is in the final analysis that he found two solid "big trees". One is Wang Youling.Wang gave him great care and help at the beginning of his business.At the local level, relying on Wang Youling's power, Hu Xueyan obtained a large number of orders and opportunities, and the business grew bigger and bigger.

The other is Zuo Zongtang.Zuo Zongtang came from an aristocratic family, famous for his military exploits and strategies, and had a high position.In order to make friends with Zuo Zongtang, Hu Xueyan tried his best to rely on this "big tree".He mainly used two methods: The first is to fully investigate and understand Zuo Zongtang.Hu Xueyan knew that Zuo Zongtang's temper was stubborn and difficult to approach; at the same time, because of his outstanding military exploits, he was quite proud and liked to hear compliments, and he knew the contradictions between Zuo Zongtang, Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang and others like the back of his hand, so Hu Xueyan His words hit Zuo Zongtang's arms.

The second is to relieve Zuo Zongtang's urgent need.It's not enough to just talk and not do it. Hu Xueyan's move to Zuo Zongtang is also reflected in his actions. He relieved Zuo Zongtang's urgent need.When Zuo Zongtang was most short of military rations, he sent 200,000 shi of military rations at once, which solved Zuo Zongtang's heart disease!As a result, it was naturally in exchange for Zuo Zongtang's gratitude and trust.Zuo Zongtang called him "although he came from a merchant, but he has the spirit of a hero". So, what kind of communication means should we use to find and intersect with "noble people"?

To put it bluntly, a noble person is someone who can influence your career success and who can help you at critical moments.These people are generally: One is people with family background.Many of these people usually like to volunteer to help others, but your performance may not be appreciated by him, unless you make him particularly appreciate you in some respects.However, family background does not necessarily guarantee that he will have a good life in his life. If his conduct is not good and his ability is limited, then he cannot get along with this kind of person for a long time! The second is a person who has achieved success and fame.This kind of person is the same as the former, unless you have a special performance, or some of your strengths happen to be appreciated by others, otherwise no matter how much you "follow", he still can't see you!

The third is people with ability and potential.This kind of people may be the best people to follow. They are a kind of "potential stocks", and they can't see the benefits at the moment, but if they continue to do it for a long time, they will definitely gain.But people with ability and potential may not necessarily succeed in the end. It is hard to say what people's opportunities are, so you have to follow them without complaint or regret! Starting today, look for a backer and find a tree to enjoy the shade.However, it is best for the basis of your relationship to be gradually raised from the level of interest to the level of emotion and morality, so that your relationship can last forever.

It is meaningless to find a noble person and not know how to approach the noble person. Everyone wants help from others, but the distance between the little man and the big man is far more than a million miles.What's more, even if you are destined to meet a big man, begging him to do something will still hit a wall.In the minds of countless small people, perhaps it is mostly just thinking about asking for help from big people, because big people are really hard to find.But there are also unusual ones among the little people who have achieved great things with their cleverness and wisdom.

Lao Jiang has started his business for many years, but fate always seems to be playing tricks on him, and he has worked hard but gained little.Once, the city where he lived was going to carry out infrastructure construction and renovation. He felt that this was an opportunity, but there were as many as a dozen companies in the same city that met the requirements. How could he get this opportunity?He racked his brains and came up with a good idea for the person in charge who specialized in managing the project. The person in charge has a habit of going fishing in fish ponds in the suburbs every weekend.So Lao Jiang found out the location, took his fishing gear and ran to the fish pond.

He first watched the person in charge fishing from the side, and whenever the person in charge caught fish, Lao Jiang was very envious.The person in charge naturally felt very proud, and asked curiously when he saw that Lao Jiang was carrying fishing gear but not fishing.Lao Jiang pretended not to fish, and took the opportunity to ask for advice.The person in charge suddenly felt that he had met a bosom friend, so he told Lao Jiang some fishing tips.The two chatted more and more speculatively, and they talked about their respective occupations without knowing it. Lao Jiang looked aggrieved, talking about the fierce competition in his industry, and vomited bitterness to the person in charge.When the person in charge revealed his identity, Lao Jiang made a request logically.

It is conceivable that Lao Jiang's company naturally won the project bidding.Since then, Lao Jiang's career has reached a new level, and his life has also entered a new platform! Find out what the nobleman likes, and then approach him without showing any traces, and build a relationship with the nobleman, so that the nobleman can notice you.The same is true for Hu Xueyan sending rice to Zuo Zongtang.It's just that the gift he gave was too expensive and saved Zuo Zongtang's army. No wonder Zuo Zongtang asked his wife to cook for Hu Xueyan himself. The last thing I want to remind you is that when you find your "backer" and "shade tree", you can't completely rely on others to live, but just take advantage of the conditions provided by others, and you have to work harder.
