Chapter 21: Caught off guard
The car was parked at the mobile phone store at the intersection of Danfeng Street and Dashiqiao.
The fare was paid by Xu Anyang, and the starting price of a taxi in Nanjing in 08 was 9 yuan, and there was no fuel surcharge.
After getting out of the car, Xu Anyang took the three of them into the mobile phone store.
This is a well-known one-stop gathering place for wholesale, retail and maintenance of electronic products in Nanjing.
When Xu Anyang was an account manager, he marketed the POS machines of a small half of the merchants here, and he was very familiar with the situation here.
After entering the store, some large doors and shops were bypassed by Xu Anyang, and they got in front of an ordinary small shop in the middle, and erected a sign of "repair mobile phone", which did not look very reliable.
"Can this place work? Have you come here to fix your mobile phone?" Dong Qinghe looked around and asked in a puzzled tone.
"Repaired, don't worry, the place I brought you here must be fast and cheap. Xu Anyang replied, patted the front desk of the store as he spoke, "Is there anyone who repairs mobile phones?"
There were three employees in the store, two men and one woman, and the female clerk heard the voice and came to greet them.
"What phone, what's broken?" asked the clerk.
"Soai W910, the screen is broken, change it. ”
"Look... If you change the screen this time, it will cost 200 yuan. ”
"200 is expensive, 20. ”
Xu Anyang's knife bargained, and the people who cut it were caught off guard.
Dong Qinghe and Ye Zhiyu on the side also thought that this bargaining was too powerful.
Originally, Ye Zhiyu heard that it was 200 yuan and felt acceptable.
She called the official maintenance station and said that it costs 400 yuan to change the screen, and the price here is only half of it.
Xu Anyang was ruthless, and slashed one-tenth of it with one sword.
The female clerk saw the appearance of Xu Anyang and the other students, and said, "20 yuan, you might as well repair it yourself." Our house is already the cheapest, you go to each store and ask if our house is the cheapest. ”
Xu Anyang said with a smile: "Your home is indeed the cheapest, because other homes repair screens, they all come to you to repair them, isn't it cheap." ”
The female clerk was speechless for a while, and he actually knew a little secret in the industry in the mobile phone store.
There seem to be a lot of shops here, most of them sell mobile phones and repair mobile phones, but in fact, many stores receive bad mobile phones, and they subcontract them to a store with the best technology to repair them at a certain price to earn the difference in the middle. This humble shop is the best business undertaker.
"Also, take a closer look, this phone is broken by the outer screen, the corner is broken, the LCD screen inside is not broken, just change the outer screen, the cost is only a few cents, and the manual fee of 20 yuan is not enough?"
One of the big profits from repairing mobile phone screens lies in this.
It's obvious that the outer screen is broken, and the user's ignorance is used to say that he wants to change it all, and finally make a few hundred more.
This is still the era when smartphones are not popular, and in two more years, full-screen smartphones will occupy the market, and the screen will become a fragile part, and the tricks and profit space for mobile phone repair will be even more terrifying.
Hearing Xu Anyang's words, a male clerk inside came out, took his mobile phone and looked at it, and said, "20 is 20, wait for fifteen minutes." ”
When Xu Anyang saw him, he changed his tone and said, "Thank you, Master Yang's craftsmanship is still trustworthy." ”
The male clerk was a little surprised and said, "You know me?"
Xu Anyang nodded, "I know, I heard your master Lao Pan mention it." ”
"Do you know my master?"
"Ah, I'm a distant relative, and his grandmother's father is my grandmother's uncle and grandfather's daughter's uncle. ”
This relationship between relatives was not smoothed out for a while.
The clerk surnamed Yang didn't bother much, and took his mobile phone to the background to repair it.
Dong Qinghe asked curiously: "What kind of relatives is it?"
Xu Anyang replied: "Why do you care so much, think about what to eat later, save a lot of money, Ye Zhiyu is a treat." ”
Ye Zhiyu said: "Okay, I'm in for a treat, but I don't know what to eat in Nanjing." ”
"I heard that Nanjing Confucius Temple is quite famous. ”
"What about Xinjiekou, Xinjiekou is not far from here, right?"
"Won't Xinjiekou be too expensive?"
"I don't know, I heard that the soup dumplings in Nanjing are delicious?"
"There are also duck blood vermicelli, beef potstickers. ”
"It seems to be at the entrance of this school, right there at Gate No. 1. ”
"Where's Gate One?"
The three of you are still a little excited.
When I was in high school, I had limited time and money, and occasionally went out to eat and drink with my classmates on weekends, and students in small places went to KFC, McDonald's, and Tex.
In 08, there was no software such as Dianping on the mobile phone to choose from, either you hit it everywhere by chance, or only the old driver brought it.
"Hey, hey, okay, okay, don't discuss it, let's see what time it is? After the mobile phone is repaired at two o'clock, what soup dumplings, duck blood vermicelli, can you eat? At this point in the afternoon, take you to have afternoon tea, and take a look at Nanjing City by the way." ”
The three of them immediately nodded in agreement, and it was different to have an old driver.
"Are you from Nanjing?" asked Dong Qinghe.
"No, I'm Chinese. ”
"Then what do you mean, you have been to all the cities in China, and you are familiar with them?" Dong Qinghe remembered that he had been to Chongqing in the taxi, and thought that he was young and had been to a lot of places.
"It's okay, I used to come to Nanjing when I was a child, so I'm more familiar. Xu Anyang didn't talk nonsense, he did come to Nanjing many times when he was a child, and he had relatives and friends here.
In Dong Qinghe's heart, Xu Anyang's image has another layer of color.
In fact, on the day he signed up, Dong Qinghe heard the name Xu Anyang.
It was mentioned by a girl in the same dormitory, saying that there was a boy named Xu Anyang who quarreled with the student supervisor when he signed up.
Later, during military training, two boys sat in the shade of a tree without training, and it was difficult not to notice, one of them was Xu Anyang.
Later, he performed magic tricks and shot Chen Yang in the face, which is known to everyone.
So far, Xu Anyang's impression of Dong Qinghe is that of a "second-rate" bad student in high school before.
After that, Ye Zhiyu's mobile phone was broken, and Xu Anyang proposed to repair it together on his rest day, and he wanted to take Dong Qinghe with him, and Dong Qinghe immediately agreed.
She and Ye Zhiyu are in the same dormitory, and the two are very close to each other.
Ye Zhiyu's well-behaved and weak Jiangnan water country atmosphere makes people very protective.
Dong Qinghe, who comes from the mountains and rivers of Bashu, has the temperament of a robe brother in a mountain city, and she is afraid that Xu Anyang will covet Ye Zhiyu, so she thinks that she can protect her together.
In the taxi, she found that Xu Anyang was not honest and deliberately rubbed on herself.
If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't show it in the car, she really wanted a whip leg to let him understand the pungency of the Sichuan girl.
But an hour later, her impression of Xu Anyang had changed dramatically.
The maintenance cost of 200 was easily cut to 20, and he was so knowledgeable that he seemed to know everything.
This has a mysterious attraction for students who have just been pulled out of the sea of books.
"Alright, the screen is fixed, it's as good as ever!"
At this time, Master Yang, who repaired the mobile phone, had already replaced the screen, and Xu Anyang returned the mobile phone to Ye Zhiyu's hands.
Ye Zhiyu was very happy to see that the mobile phone was repaired so quickly and cheaply.
"So where are we going right now?"
"Purple Mountain, Observatory!"
