Chapter 85: Good News

For the next two days, Su Mu has been looking for a way to wholesale computers at factory prices.

At present, the sales of computers are not high, many agents' products, backlogs in the warehouse can not be sold, he already knows the reserve price, it is easy to get the goods from them at a low price, in the case of insufficient strength to directly find the manufacturer to sell as an agent, this is the best way.

In order to meet the various needs of potential consumers, and even prepare to customize a batch of high-performance computers, I accidentally learned that I could buy parts, find someone to help upgrade the performance, and can save a sum of money, Su Mu felt that it was better to find someone to assemble it himself, save money and at the same time be able to deliver the product to the customer as soon as possible.

He didn't know that there was a guy named Michael Dell in Texas who accidentally had the same idea as him, and recently used his savings of a thousand dollars to start a company to build and sell computers by himself.

Coincidentally, Michael Dale recently inspected the market in the Silicon Valley area, and was so poor that he could only stay in the cheapest motel, and now Silicon Valley is the birthplace of cutting-edge IT technology, and everyone in the industry wants to come and experience it for himself, and it is not surprising that he came to Silicon Valley.

In this era, the news could not be delivered in time, and the Internet was almost blank, Michael Dale did not know Su Mu, and Su Mu also did not know Dell.

He was already one step ahead of the Texas guy because Daniel's father had promised to ask the principal of Menlo Park Private High School to play golf when he returned from New York after the meeting, and talk about the "big business" by the way.

Before that, Daniel's father felt that this son was very unhappy, and he was very happy after hearing the news of partnering with a friend to do business, and it was not a big business that embarrassed the principal, but in the case of the same price, he chose the order of his son Daniel's company, and the products were the same, he was not worried about the problem at all, and he just helped a little......

Su Mu heard the good news from Daniel before boarding the Greyhound bus, and was very happy on the way home on Friday, if the order is successfully completed, it doesn't matter how much money you can make, the important thing is to open the market, and next time you go to other schools to discuss, you will have the confidence to talk.

If it goes well again, maybe you can recruit a group of salesmen to help expand your business in various places like a pharmaceutical company, this is just Su Mu's dream, after all, even the first transaction has not been completed.

By the time the three computers are in his hands next week, there is a good chance that the computer business of Menlo Park Private High School will be won, and everything seems to be going in a good direction.

Su Mu finally knew why those people dropped out of school just after success, and while they were too busy to deal with school affairs, they would gradually lose interest in learning, and more attention would be shifted to work.

But he was afraid of being beaten by Old Man Su, so he wisely decided to continue studying, even if he gave up going to school, he would have to wait until he entered the university, so that even if he failed to start a business, he could at least have a diploma and go out without worrying about finding a job......

********************

Los Angeles is still the same, and so is Chinatown.

After more than five hours of driving, Su Mu was sore, and after getting out of the car, he didn't care about saving money, so he directly beckoned to take a car and asked the driver to send him to the old glass factory.

It's now called "Buyfun Supermarket", and the big sign has been hung up early enough to be seen from afar, with the façade still red brick and the roof tiles black.

The white door is written in bold red letters, "BuyFun" is written on one side and "Supermarket" on the other, and the left and right sides are not symmetrical, which can force people with obsessive-compulsive disorder to death, and these small details do not need to be paid too much attention to.

The parking lot is still under construction, probably because the official funding has not been spent, and there are still workers planting grass and flowers in the vacant land next to it.

After Su Mu got out of the car, he saw the supermarket he had invested in, and his heart was full of a sense of accomplishment, looking in through the door, many counters had been placed, and there were even goods on it, and more than a dozen employees wearing blue vests and red shirts were being trained by Boss Han inside.

When I got closer, I saw him shouting: "The goods on each shelf are different! You must not put them randomly, put the same kind together, and replenish them immediately before they are sold out! Remember to see customers, and your attitude must be good, I don't want to see customers ask where things are placed, but you don't care about things, I see them dismissed on the spot! Remember?"

"Remember!" replied the employees loudly, their voices in unison, apparently not missing this half-baked training course.

The supermarket will open next month, Han Yu's boss is in a high mood, more than 100,000 US dollars is not a small amount of money for him, and he has spent a lot of effort recently, and told Su Mu from the phone a few days ago that if he doesn't come to see it two or three times a day, he can't sleep when he goes home.

Recently, Su Mu rarely had the opportunity to contact Boss Han, because the phone line of the villa he rented was occupied by Li Zhekai and James, who were starting a business in the garage, and he couldn't make calls when he was on the Internet.

Those few got up early and worked late to develop office programs, and four computers were running at the same time, resulting in a serious excess of electricity bills this month, coupled with the staggering Internet fees, the hundreds of dollars earned from selling books had long been used up.

During this period of time, people often come to the door of the factory to look around, asking what to do, at first thinking that it is to start a factory, many idlers who can't find a job come to ask if there is any work.

In this era, there are not many job opportunities, labor-intensive and resource-intensive enterprises have moved out in large numbers, and even if they are pulled down by many low-income people, the average salary in the United States is more than 1,000 US dollars, and the wealth polarization is very serious, for example, George, who lives with Su Mu, has a salary of 3,500 US dollars as a programmer during the internship period, and only 3,400 US dollars a month with a low income.

The three members of the Su family work, the salary is only half of the average salary, and after the money earned is paid for taxes, except for the cost of buying insurance and going to school for Su Mu, there is not much left, it was slightly better before, and Su Mu's grandmother was sick two years ago and spent all her savings.

The annual after-tax income of more than 10,000 US dollars is definitely a huge amount of money in underdeveloped countries, and it is richer than the "10,000 yuan households" in China, but living in the United States, it is enough to make ends meet, and there will be no shortage of food and clothing.

Boss Han noticed that there was someone at the door at first, and then he realized that it was Su Mu, asked the employees to rest for a while, walked towards him, and asked triumphantly: "What do you think, it scared you?" Hahaha! Maybe it can be opened in advance, the goods are being pulled over, the warehouse is all over, I have already asked people to prepare......"
