However, it seems that after Xu Damao made his fortune with the stick, he ignored everyone else. Qin Jingru also moved out of the compound, and the house has been locked ever since.
However, Xu Damao's fame did not diminish at all; on the contrary, it grew even greater. That meal propelled Xu Damao to a pedestal, making him a genuine multi-millionaire in people's eyes.
The "Health Treasure Deer Antler and Ginseng Oral Liquid" that he originally sent over had become a miracle drug thanks to the promotion by Second Uncle Liu Haizhong. It's unclear whether it was a placebo effect or if it really worked.
Half a month later, the elderly people who took the oral liquid said that they felt much better. Their backs didn't ache when they walked, their legs didn't hurt, and they could eat three steamed buns in one go!
Even Uncle Liu Haizhong and Auntie Er, who had just been discharged from the hospital, were spreading the word about the miraculous effects of Health Treasure Oral Liquid throughout the compound.
Now, Xu Damao's fame soared even higher. A month later, when Banggeng appeared at the gate of the compound wearing a suit and carrying large and small bags, handing over 10,000 yuan to Qin Huairu, the whole compound was in an uproar after the squinty-eyed old woman boasted about it.
Especially Uncle Liu Haizhong, who completely put aside his pride, personally went to Banggeng and asked Banggeng to pass on a message to Xu Damao that he also wanted to get rich and asked Damao to help him!
Chapter 117: Welcome to the Health Code Family
Uncle Liu Haizhong, with the determination to visit Xu Damao three times, finally moved Xu Damao to agree to let him be the first to join the Health Treasure family.
To give Uncle Er a more direct understanding of the strength of Health Treasure Group, Xu Damao arranged for Uncle Er to visit Health Treasure Group.
Upon hearing the news, the second uncle was so excited that he couldn't express it. After preparing for a long time, he was picked up by Banggeng and gathered downstairs at the Health Code office building.
When they arrived, the second uncle discovered that there were more than a dozen other people who had come with him for the visit. He learned that these people were all big bosses from all over the country. They had all heard that Health Treasure Group had entered China and were very optimistic about Health Treasure's project, so they were invited to come and visit.
Now the second uncle felt even more uneasy. As an ordinary old man, he felt somewhat inferior when he was with these bosses. However, Xu Damao's attitude towards him was obviously different from that of the others. He took the initiative to take the time to comfort and encourage him before leaving. Everyone looked at him with envy.
After a full day of visiting, the second uncle was completely shocked. He had only one thought in his mind: Health Treasure is too powerful. He's going to be rich now.
The first place they visited was the current office of Health Treasure's Yanjing branch. Since this was the company's first time entering China, it did not yet have a fixed office building, but Health Treasure Group is very powerful.
The temporary office building alone rented three floors of a certain overseas Chinese hotel. The office environment inside was very luxurious, with white-collar workers in suits coming and going. I heard that the rent alone was tens of thousands of yuan per month, plus other personnel expenses and living expenses, which amounted to hundreds of thousands of yuan per month.
After touring the office building, the group was led into a conference room where staff explained the history of Health Treasure, its future development prospects, the future pursuit of health by Chinese people, and finally introduced Health Treasure's products and effects.
Uncle Liu Haizhong was deeply attracted by the staff's explanation, as if he had opened up a new world. He realized that as long as you find the right method, making money is so easy.
After the two-hour lecture, it was almost noon. Everyone was invited to have a working lunch. Even though it was just a regular working lunch, it was still a bit of a luxury for Uncle Er. It was the first time he had ever eaten a lobster.
After the meal, the group was taken by bus to a somewhat desolate area near the city outskirts. Just as the group was wondering what was going on, the staff pointed to a large area outside the bus and said...
"The area you see now is where our group plans to build its headquarters over the next five years. It covers a total area of 14,700 acres. Although the location is still relatively remote at present, in five years, skyscrapers will be built here, and eighteen bus lines will pass through here. This place will become a new landmark in Yanjing!"
"Imagine everyone here in the future, with tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, of dollars, standing atop an 88-story skyscraper, looking down at the entire city of Yanjing. What an experience that would be!"
The crowd was filled with excitement and enthusiasm. Uncle Er felt his blood pressure rising and quickly rubbed his chest. The blush on his face made him feel like he was on cloud nine.
After touring the future headquarters, the group was once again led to a conference room. Upon entering the conference room, they immediately felt the atmosphere was somewhat solemn. There were neatly dressed staff members at the entrance of the conference room, who looked like imperial guards. The group felt uneasy.
Upon entering the conference room, everyone quickly noticed several elderly men sitting by the podium. The men all stood solemnly, exuding an aura unlike that of ordinary people.
The staff member quickly stepped forward and respectfully spoke to the elderly men. Finally, the staff member asked everyone to sit down and then spoke first.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our group's ability to establish itself in Yanjing is naturally based on solid foundations and the support from above. Let me introduce you to this person: this is Director So-and-so, and this was formerly...!"
After the inspection, Uncle Liu Haizhong was still dizzy and shocked. He never imagined that Health Treasure had such a powerful background and deep connections. It truly lived up to its reputation as a multinational corporation!
The day after returning to the compound, Liu Haizhong became a health code promotion ambassador, quickly sharing his observations with a group of elderly men and soon joining the health code family.
Meanwhile, every few days, Uncle Liu Haizhong would be taken by Banggeng to attend classes to learn about the development model and development plan of Health Treasure!
Selling health products is not only profitable, but also a great thing for the country and its people, serving more elderly people and bringing them health.
Xu Damao said that he originally did not plan to develop agents in that area of the compound because the people there do not have a high level of consumption. However, seeing the enthusiasm of the people there, he could not refuse their invitation.
In that case, let's get more people into the Health Code family and make money together!
Uncle Liu Haizhong was deeply moved when he heard Xu Damao's words!
Health Treasure Group currently has five levels of agents, from Level 1 to Level 5, with a five-to-five promotion system.
A first-level agent must first pay 1980 to the company, which is considered as the company recognizing your agent status.
Of course, the company will not treat you unfairly. First, the company will give you health products worth 1980 yuan as a gift. Moreover, first-level agents can purchase these products at a 10% discount.
For example, the Health Treasure Deer Antler and Ginseng Oral Liquid, which was originally priced at 598, can now be purchased for 538. You can then sell the product to others for 598, and the price difference is your profit.
Of course, if you feel you can't sell them, that's okay too. You can drink them yourself or make other money, for example.
You can invite another person to join the Health Treasure family. Pay 1980 yuan to the company, and the company will first reward you with a 10% referral bonus, which is 198 yuan.
This is only the right of a Level 1 agent. Once you recruit five Level 1 agents to join the company, your status will automatically be upgraded to Level 2 agent.
The benefits of being a second-tier agent are much better than those of being a first-tier agent. You get the right to purchase health products at a 20% discount, and you can also purchase other goods at a 20% discount and transfer them to a new first-tier agent at a 10% discount.
Take Health Treasure Deer Antler Ginseng Oral Liquid as an example. The original price is 598, but you can buy it for only 478. Then you can sell it to a first-level agent for 538. There is a 59 difference in price, which is the benefit of the second-level agent. The company takes 478 yuan.
Furthermore, once you become a Level 2 agent, you will also receive rewards for the downlines developed by the five Level 1 agents under you, although the referral bonus will be reduced from 10% to 5%.
And when these downlines invite more downlines, you still get a commission, just reduced to one percent. In short, you only stop receiving any rewards after reaching five levels of relationships.
A third-level agent requires five times five, meaning you need to develop twenty-five first-level agents. A fourth-level agent would need six hundred and twenty-five, and a fifth-level agent would require an astronomical number.
This 50/50 system, like a nested doll, has layers upon layers, each with more and greater benefits and rights. Invitation rewards are just a small part; the real big part is the price difference from transferring health products.
Once you develop hundreds or thousands of agents, even if you sit at home and do nothing, you can earn tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. This is because you will still receive commissions from other agents developed by your agents, and you will have endless income, benefiting your descendants!
In short, this set of rules is basically the same as the nested rules of later pyramid schemes, and even more powerful and deceptive!
Because this was in the early 1980s, everyone's understanding of this area was like a blank sheet of paper.
After He Yuzhu learned about the rule from his second uncle, it was basically certain that Xu Damao was up to some trick.
He never imagined that Xu Damao would be involved in pyramid schemes in the 1980s; he was practically a pioneer in this field.
His move would be believed even thirty years from now, let alone in this era of limited information channels. Moreover, the scale of his investment and the magnitude of his actions made He Yuzhu feel somewhat alarmed.
After much deliberation, He Yuzhu decided to find time to talk to his second uncle. This matter was too big; he was afraid that one day a bomb might suddenly explode, and that bomb would blow the people in the compound to pieces.
In just over ten days, the number of agents under Second Uncle's management has reached more than 20, officially making him a third-level agent and entitled to a 30% discount on health products.
Moreover, these twenty-odd people are developing new agents at an astonishing rate of fission.
He Yuzhu was also amazed by this speed. Now, in the compound, the topic of conversation almost every day is about Health Code, and who has recruited a few more agents today.
But when he found a time and subtly told his second uncle that this might be a scam, his second uncle's eyes widened in anger, and he immediately grabbed a broom to hit him, causing He Yuzhu to retreat.
He Yuzhu felt as if he was about to witness an unparalleled and insane tragedy.
Chapter 118: Earning a Ten-Thousand-Yuan Household in a Month
After his second uncle's persuasion failed, He Yuzhu had no choice but to sacrifice his own family to save the king. He couldn't care less about other people's families, but his own family members, especially his second uncle, had to be kept away from any contact with Xu Damao's so-called Health Treasure.
The old man has a high retirement pension and is very influential in the compound. Liu Haizhong has been trying to persuade him quite a bit lately. If he can convince the old man, his path to becoming the agent will be much more convincing.
However, the old man was a man without desires and didn't care much about money. In addition, He Yuzhu kept nagging and trying to brainwash him. After several unsuccessful attempts to brainwash him, Liu Haizhong temporarily gave up on the old man and began to focus on the other people in the compound.
The main reason is that Uncle Liu Haizhong, with his foresight, has successfully persuaded many people to become his agents, and the others in the compound, after realizing this, quickly began to follow in his footsteps.
For example, the third uncle, a master shrewd strategist, was initially hesitant to get involved, but seeing his second uncle making a fortune every day, the third uncle figured he couldn't afford to fall behind, so he gathered his sons to discuss the matter.
The sons, all skilled shrewd strategists inherited from their great-uncle, decided to see for themselves and went to learn from him a few times. They witnessed the incredibly extravagant brainwashing techniques and quickly became immersed in them.
With Xu Damao's demonstration of his financial resources, the results were surprisingly good. Within a month, the second uncle earned nearly 10,000 yuan in commissions from referral rewards and the price difference from transferring health products.
This was in 1984, and someone became a millionaire in just one month. This is a living example, a wealth myth!
Uncle Er became a sensation, and he also became incredibly arrogant. Even at seventy years old, he started wearing leather shoes and suits, combing his hair like an elite, and walking with a swagger.
His house became incredibly popular. After hearing about the incident, all his sons returned home, bringing their families with them. The couple wanted to make up for all the filial piety they had missed over the years.
The three brothers, eager to prove their filial piety and loyalty, were practically ready to lay bare their hearts and souls before Liu Haizhong.
Liu Haizhong had seen through these unfilial sons and didn't give them a kind look. Now that he had money, what use were these unfilial sons to him?
But even if they wanted to drive them away now, they couldn't. On the contrary, the more they tried to drive them away, the more filial their sons became. Seeing that her sons were suddenly so filial, the second aunt was naturally happy and accepted their behavior.
Later, Liu Haizhong realized that he was getting too old and running around was too tiring, so he reluctantly recruited his third son as his downline. The whole family worked together to make the Health Treasure family grow and make money happily!
Liu Haizhong's thriving business has become an endless role model for the residents of the compound and the surrounding neighborhood, leading more and more people to join the Health Treasure family.
One thousand nine hundred and eighty was a sum that urban families in the 1980s could scrape together by saving every penny. If they were really short, they could just borrow a little more and that would be it. Once they became a second-level agent, they would be able to break even on their share.
Moreover, the purchase price for second-level agents is lower than that for first-level agents. With agents under their own command, and those agents developing their own agents, they will reach the pinnacle of life, marry a beautiful and wealthy woman, and achieve their dreams of wealth.
Many people relied on this get-rich-quick dream, and this novel model appeared in China and Beijing for the first time, sweeping everything away like a whirlwind.
In the second month, Liu Haizhong's commission reached a new high, exceeding 30,000 yuan. However, he did not keep the money but continued to give it to Health Treasure Group to continue purchasing shares.
He is currently a level 3 agent. Level 4 agents need 625 units at 1980 yuan. Level 3 and level 4 agents are a watershed. Level 3 agents get a 30% discount, while level 4 agents get a 50% discount.
Furthermore, fourth-level agents will gain more resources and rights, such as free overseas travel, free hotel accommodations, and even a guaranteed monthly salary of 10,000 yuan from the Health Treasure Group, as well as the right to obtain shares in the Health Treasure Group.
Level 4 agents are practically the ceiling, and Level 5 agents are legendary figures.
Uncle Liu Haizhong's wish is to become a level four agent, with a guaranteed monthly salary of 10,000 yuan and hundreds of agents under his command. He can become a millionaire just by transferring the profits, and then enjoy a worry-free retirement, becoming a winner in life.
He Yuzhu watched as everyone seemed to have gone a little crazy in their pursuit of money. Now, in the courtyard, people no longer talked about national affairs; instead, they talked about who was a certain level of agent, who had brought in their relative, and how much commission someone had earned this month, and so on.
He Yuzhu felt that the situation was getting out of control, but at this point, he could only shut up. He couldn't stay silent either, because no one believed him. He had the illusion that he was the only one who was sober while everyone else was drunk.
He Yuzhu originally thought this farce would end in a short time, but he was obviously overthinking it. This wave of wealth seemed to rise one wave after another, and it seemed to have no end by the end of May.
Now, everyone in the compound talks about tens of thousands of dollars and is a "boss" all the time, making He Yuzhu feel like he's in the 2020s. But behind this fervor, He Yuzhu sees the increasingly impoverished living standards of every household.
Although every household started as a second-level agent and had third-level agents everywhere, in theory every household should have made a lot of money. However, in reality, every household quickly became destitute, and most even owed a large amount of debt.
In less than six months, they swept away the wealth of the compound and several nearby streets. And that's not all. According to He Yuzhu, almost 80% of the families of the thousands of people in the steel plant had joined the Health Treasure family.
The same was true for several factories around here. In this frenzied atmosphere, He Yuzhu felt that something bad was about to happen. However, in the past few months, He Yuzhu had tried to persuade his neighbors a lot, and even lost his temper several times.
Although He Yuzhu didn't want to meddle, he couldn't bear to see so many people and families go bankrupt. As a modern person with He Yuzhu's soul, he felt somewhat guilty.
But all he got in return was meddling. Sha Zhu is Sha Zhu, a fool all his life, never willing to make money.
Some people are saying that everyone knows you and Xu Damao used to be enemies. Now that Xu Damao has chosen to reconcile with you, you are repaying kindness with enmity and saying bad things about him everywhere. You have a problem with your character!
He Yuzhu even mentioned this matter vaguely at the big boss's house one last time. He didn't dare to say it too clearly. After all, it was 84, and the country was in dire need of foreign investment. Health Treasure Group was using foreign investment as a cover. Moreover, He Yuzhu had investigated the company and found that it actually had a Japanese foreign investment background.
He Yuzhu couldn't understand how Xu Damao could be so powerful, but he was 100% certain that this Health Treasure Company was the pyramid scheme group of the future. Unfortunately, this was the originator, and no one had any experience with it or was aware of it at all.
Therefore, He Yuzhu could only vaguely suggest to the big boss that the company might be risky and ask him to help investigate.
The big boss wouldn't normally care about such a small matter, but He Yuzhu is no ordinary person, so he still had his secretary make a note of it and have the relevant departments investigate it.
However, the results of the investigation surprised He Yuzhu. In just six months, Health Treasure Group has developed branches in more than 30 cities across the country, which is very rapid. However, this company seems to be very legitimate and has a good reputation.
