Chapter 14 Hunger Marketing
Running wildly all the way, Lu Chen couldn't stop his excitement and rode his bicycle out of the speed of the motorcycle.
Arriving at the Guanbei Market and stepping up to the second floor, Lu Chen saw Zhang Hu from a distance, sitting sullenly in front of the fish stall smoking a cigarette, like a little old man, sighing from time to time.
"Boss, it's time for business. ”
Lu Chen walked to the stall and said to him with a smile.
Zhang Hu looked up and broke helplessly: "You kid, you can't study well, run here every day to tease me, is it interesting?"
"Haha, what do you mean by me teasing you, you're not a big girl. ”
Lu Chen took out a cigarette and handed one to him: "It's business that really comes, but it's not a fish business, it's a medicine business." ”
"Oh?
Zhang Hu took the cigarette, lit it with a click, and asked suspiciously.
Lu Chen told Zhang Hu the news he had just heard from the pharmacy.
Due to the gradual spread of epidemic information in big cities, the news has spread to Jiangbei, coupled with the fermentation of the Jiangbei Star Forum for more than half a month, the news of a large number of banlan root and white vinegar has begun to appear in the past two days, and the price has also doubled.
"Did you really get covered? So it doubled? Then hurry up and open a position?"
Zhang Hu opened his mouth wide and looked surprised, this is much easier to make than selling fish.
Lu Chen took a deep breath of cigarette and shook his head: "It's not enough, the price is still a little low." ”
Zhang Hu felt that the words choked in his throat, this was like robbing money, it was not enough.
Lu Chen ignored Zhang Hu's expression, and then said: "The price will go up all the way, but we can't wait, who knows if there are other people who are hoarding goods like us, so we have to stimulate the price again." ”
"How exciting?"
Zhang Hu asked puzzled.
"In this way, I will make some leaflets, go to various tricycle gathering points, and talk to them about posting advertisements, these people usually run all over the street anyway, and put up advertisements, and the whole Jiangbei will know that we have goods here;"
Lu Chen flicked off the cigarette butt, his eyes were like torches, and he said firmly: "You go to the shop to open a store to sell, and sell it in limited quantities for three consecutive days, limited to 100 packs of banlan root and 100 bottles of white vinegar every day, and the price doubles every day." ”
Zhang Hu was still confused, not knowing what Lu Chen was doing.
"It's called hunger marketing, in short, it's just to help sales, and you don't understand it if you talk too much. ”
Lu Chen wanted to explain, but he was still stupid when he looked at the other party, so he simply didn't say anything.
Zhang Hu really didn't understand, so he felt that this scholar was the way to talk about the truth, but he didn't bother to care, anyway, he was still good at opening a store and selling things.
Acting separately, Lu Chen went directly to the tricycle gathering place.
Jiangbei urban area is not large, the role of taxis and buses is very small, basically can not operate, on the contrary, tricycles are more popular, for a time very popular.
There are many places of interest and historic sites in Jiangbei City, after 2005, the municipal government vigorously develops tourism, the tricycle that adapts to the trend is more popular, tourists sit on the rickshaw, visit the major places of interest, they are very happy, and even the driver also plays the role of a tour guide, which is quite distinctive.
It is not difficult to find a tricycle gathering place, just at the passenger terminal, pedestrian street, Yinhu Park and other places, Lu Chen quickly found them.
After negotiations, we finally won the right to advertise tricycles at a price of 20 yuan per day, that is, the leaflets were posted on the canopy behind the tricycles, and these mobile billboards were used to walk around the city.
The content of the advertisement is very simple: "Banlan root granules and white vinegar are sold in limited quantities, and the location is XXX shop in Kanbei Market, pre-order as soon as possible, first come, first served." ”
For a time, such mobile advertisements can be seen in the streets and alleys of Jiangbei City.
After doing all this, Lu Chen returned to the Guanbei market to wait for the rabbit.
On the first day, due to the limited release of information, 100 packets of banlan root and 100 bottles of white vinegar were not sold out, but after information fermentation, they were sold out in less than half a day on the second day, and the price doubled;
Zhang Hu looked at the inquiries of people coming and going at the door of the shop, and was anxious, but he couldn't be the master.
But on the other hand, Lu Chen, with a calm face, was unhurried, stunned and didn't make a move, and even pretended to be a good person, crying miserably with the old aunts and old ladies, claiming that he went to a far away place every night to buy for everyone, the quantity was limited, and he didn't make money.
It's just that the old aunts and old ladies still eat this set very much, calling the young man a good person, the young man a good person, and so on.
"You're a profiteer, you're thick-skinned enough. ”
Zhang Hu looked at Lu Chen with a look of peace of mind and contempt.
"Hey, what do you know, this is called the balance of supply and demand, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and I didn't force them, right. ”
Lu Chen threw a cigarette to Zhang Hu, and said with a smile: "Besides, doing business is like this, which capitalist has no story in the first pot of gold, right?"
Zhang Hu glanced at the other party, but he couldn't refute it.
Lu Chen couldn't be a profiteer after all, when the price of banlangen rose to 7 times, and the price of white vinegar rose to 40 times, he opened the clearance mode, you must know that at the peak of the year, the terminal price of banlangen was close to 10 times, and the price of white vinegar rose by about 50 times.
......
"No, for you. ”
In the shop, Lu Chen smoked a cigarette and pushed a bulging envelope to Zhang Hu, as well as a new Nokia mobile phone.
Zhang Hu took it, took it out, and took a breath of cold air: "So many, it's not suitable, I didn't make any effort, and as for the mobile phone, I can't take it." ”
He didn't count it, but in terms of thickness, it was at least 30,000, and he had to work for a year to sell fish, and he felt ashamed.
"Okay, I'll take it for you, we are brothers, it is impossible for you to suffer, but I will not give it in vain, it is still the same sentence, there is hard work, affection is friendship, and the rules are the rules. ”
Lu Chen put away his usual smiling face, and instantly became extremely serious: "I will do more things in the future, if you want, we will work together, but there is one thing I still want to remind you, about Chen Meijun, keep an eye on yourself." ”
Chen Meijun is Zhang Hu's girlfriend who met in junior high school, the two were at the most ignorant age, because of the old boy, Zhang Hu was bold and ruthless, and quickly gathered a group of friends in school, and Chen Meijun, who worships ruffian students, quickly became obsessed with Zhang Hu, so it was so good.
But as she grows older, the girl's mind is also maturing, and the passion at the beginning will slowly evolve into material desire, which was the case in the previous life.
After speaking, Lu Chen patted the other party's shoulder and left, leaving Zhang Hu alone in a daze.
The shop was only rented for a month, and it was invalid when it expired, and he didn't bother to take care of it.
Back at school, Lu Chen repaid Da Xiong's arrears, and gave him an additional 5,000 yuan, and Da Xiong, who tasted the sweetness, kept cursing Lu Chen for not being righteous enough, causing himself to lose the opportunity to make money.
In order to treat himself, Lu Chen bought three more mobile phones, one for his mother, and the other two are Nokia 8310, red and blue couple machines, looking at the classic hand-holding boot HD wallpaper, listening to the familiar boot melody, full of memories.
