Chapter 10: Expanding into New Business
I quit Huya, and was thinking about going back to the dormitory, WeChat was ticking, I took this second-hand broken phone, and thought, tomorrow I will change you for anything!
When I opened WeChat, vivi sent a message, "Brother Ouyang, the audience asks for a voice call with you, you take it, don't smash my field!"
It's also quite common to live broadcast with the big guy's voice to earn some eyeballs, and I'm idle anyway, so I immediately replied, "Don't worry, take care of me!"
Then the voice rang, and I hung up without saying a word! Hehe, girl, brother promises not to dismantle your station! I don't need to be on the live broadcast to imagine vivi's wonderful expression, and my heart is very happy.
But Vivi was not discouraged, and another day followed by a voice request. I didn't hang up this time, and it's not fun to use the same trick twice.
I picked it up, and asked impatiently, "What are you doing, what voice are you doing!"
Vivi wasn't angry, I don't know if it was because of the live broadcast, and said sweetly, "Dada, what are you doing? Why are you still angry?"
I said, ", I don't want to deal with you, what?"
Vivi was also choked by me, and I continued, "What's wrong?
When I was done, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. After two or three minutes, Vivi sent another voice call request. I wondered, how could this not be enough?
I agreed, but before I could speak, Vivi erupted, "Did you give you a face!Ahh
Yo, this little temper must have been despised by the barrage in the live broadcast room, or he would have been angry just now. But I couldn't get used to her not, so I hurriedly said, "Alas, don't be angry, Sister Vivi, why did you take it seriously when you joked with you just now!"
"Okay, for the sake of your acquaintance, I'll spare you this time, pay attention next time!" vivi also took the fan, this is really a rod to climb up.
"Thank you, Sister Vivi, you are really an adult, and your chest is extremely broad!"
"What?" said Vivi exclaimed, "what do you mean by an incomparably broad breast?"
"I mean big-hearted, vivi, why are you so impure!" I deliberately her off, and I found that she had become a pleasure in my life.
"You—" Vivi froze again, "Forget it, it's okay to hang up." "She found that she was not an opponent when she was fighting with me, so she used the best tricks, and she went to the top!
After teasing vivi, I went back to the dormitory to sleep, I was really happy today, the system was upgraded, and I got 300,000 cash, I now have almost 350,000 in my account, and I am considered a rich man!
The next day, Monday, I didn't want to go to class and I left school after training. I thought that I already had a little money, and I couldn't let my parents work so hard to set up a stall to sell early.
So, I had an idea in my heart that slowly took root until I couldn't hold it anymore.
I went straight to the neighborhood opposite my village (my family lives in an urban village) called Phoenix. This community is the most upscale community within a radius of more than ten kilometers, and most of the people living in it are white-collar workers, flight attendants, civil servants and other middle-class people.
On the periphery of this community, the ground floor is all commercial shops for rent. That's right, I'm just here to rent a storefront and save my parents' days
The weather is windy and sunny outside, and you have to be on guard against the urban management gangsters and the like at all times.
Needless to say, the rental process is 140,000 yuan a year, the money is in place, and soon the contract and key are handed over to me.
But what I got was an empty house with white walls, so I found a decoration company, which was still easy to find, and advertisements were all over the street.
I found a random phone call, and I didn't talk nonsense, "Hello, can you decorate a bun shop for me in three days?"
"To hardcover, you must use good materials!"
"What? Time is too tight? 200,000!"
"Not yet? 250,000!"
"Okay! Okay, I ask for quality and quantity, and if I am not satisfied, I will have to deduct the money!"
A phone call, it's very simple to negotiate, the key is that the money is in place, and everything else is easy to say!
I have 350,000 yuan, the decoration cost is 250,000 yuan, the rent is 140,000 yuan, and I have to buy tables and chairs, air conditioners, and kitchen supplies!
Some people can't help but ask, is your math taught by a physical education teacher? 25+14 is already 39, you don't have enough money!
This kind of child may not understand that decoration is the truth of paying later.
Due to the tight time I requested, the renovation team was quickly in place, and a large cart pulled the decoration materials and five workers.
When the workers came down, a foreman-like man asked me, "Boss, how are you going to pretend to be?"
I told him the general plan in my mind, and they took care of the rest.
After that, I'm going to have to find a way to earn my renovation fee. The business there is relatively stable, with an average income of seven or eight thousand a day, and I have to find a way to do something else.
I didn't know any businessmen, and finally the idea was on the bamboo pole, I took out my mobile phone and called the bamboo pole, "Bamboo pole, is it convenient to come out?"
The bamboo pole was unknown, so he said in a low voice, "What's the matter, Shunko? ”
I said, "I've got something to discuss with you, so if you can't get out, I'll wait until noon." ”
The bamboo pole asked, "Where is it?"
I thought for a moment, "Let's go to the ramen stall, it's almost time for dinner anyway." ”
"Wait!"
I took a taxi, and as soon as I arrived at the ramen stall, I saw a bamboo pole coming over, "Shunzi, why are you in such a hurry?"
I said, "Let's talk while we eat." ”
Soon the ramen will be good, this ramen is my favorite, every few days to come here for a tooth festival, the boss knows the two of us, each time add more beef than others. This is called acquaintances are easy to do!
Eating noodles, I said to Zhugan, "Zhugan, I want to expand a new business, you see it's just charging the mobile phone card every day, I have to find a way to do something else!"
Bamboo pole smiled, "Okay, what do you think?"
I said, "Didn't Uncle Li open a hardware store?" You tell Uncle Li that we will buy goods in the store in the future, and guarantee that they are cheaper than his current purchases, how about it?"
Bamboo pole didn't even think about it, "Okay, I'll go back and talk to my dad later." ”
I thought it would be better to go over and meet for this kind of thing, so I said, "Let's go, let's go together." ”
After settling the bill, the two of us took a taxi to Uncle Li's hardware store, and Uncle Li usually stays in the store during the day. When I arrived, I saw that there was still a customer in the store shopping.
Seeing the two of us coming, Uncle Li said, "Xiao Shun is here." Sit down first, and you'll be done in a while. ”
After about five minutes, the guest finished shopping and left, and Uncle Li came over and asked, "You two are not in school on Monday, why are you here?"
I smiled and said, "Uncle, isn't this time for lunch, we have something to discuss with you." ”
I was thinking about how to phrase it to tell Uncle Li, and the bamboo pole answered, "Hey, Dad, in the future, we will leave the purchase in our store to me and Shunzi, Shunzi said, it is guaranteed to be cheaper than your current purchase." ”
Uncle Li was surprised, "Oh, is it, Shunzi?
I smiled and said, "I do know a few friends who are engaged in hardware wholesale, uncle, if you believe me, I guarantee that it is 10 points cheaper than your current purchase." ”
Uncle Li frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Shunzi is not an uncle who doesn't believe you, but I can't leave it to you all at once, you have never done business before and don't know the doorway here, in case you can't do it, I can't offend the current buyers." ”
After hearing this, the bamboo pole also helped me defend, "Dad, don't think about it, Shunzi is very powerful, it's right to hand it over to him!"
Uncle Li glared at him, "Shut up!" and then turned to me and said, "That's it, Shunzi, it just so happens that I'm selling a batch of goods now, and I want to replenish some more." This time I'll let you try, and if you give me a good idea from beginning to end, I'll use you, but you can't ask anyone else for help. ”
I thought for a moment and said, "Okay, no problem. ”
After that, Uncle Li took out a list of the goods and quantities that needed to be purchased, as well as the prices of the goods in the future.
I took the list and walked out, took a taxi and told the master to go to the largest wholesale hardware market.
The total amount of this purchase is less than 20,000 yuan, in fact, a small market can be done, but I want to do far more than this, I want to find a long-term partner.
The master dragged me away for almost an hour before I arrived at the place. I got out of the car and saw that it was really big. You can't see the end at a glance, the shops are next to each other, and they are all wholesale.
However, wholesale is not all the goods, most of them are relatively single, such as selling faucets, the store is a hand faucet, and all kinds of specifications are complete, but you can't buy a screwdriver.
I followed the list one by one, and most wholesalers were reluctant to sell to me because I didn't need a lot of money.
Uncle Li gave me a list of dozens of things, each ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand, and it is normal for such large wholesalers to be reluctant to deal with me.
But I wasn't discouraged, there were always people in such a big market who didn't think they were in front of the flies and legs, so I wandered around the wholesale market all afternoon, and it was almost six o'clock before I could buy all the things.
I have left a business card for each boss, and since these people don't dislike me, I won't treat them badly in the future.
I hired a pickup truck, loaded my things and drove to Uncle Li's shop. By the time we arrived, it was already past seven o'clock, and it was getting dark.
Uncle Li stood at the door of the store and waited for me, and when he saw me come back, he smiled and said, "If you don't come back, I'll close the door and leave." ”
I smiled and didn't say anything.
"You're not done yet, though. Uncle Li changed his words, "You have to classify and put everything in order, and you can't delay me from selling it tomorrow." I'll go first, and I'll see the results tomorrow morning. After saying that, Uncle Li threw the store key to me, and the person left.
Okay, I'm still capable of this little job! The driver helped unload the goods and drove away, and the rest is up to me.
But when I actually started to do it, I knew that things were not as simple as I imagined! First of all, these goods were all hardware, and the thieves pulled them so heavily that I was already exhausted and collapsed just by moving them from the store door into the store.
Secondly, the wooden box is still very awkward, and I moved it by hand for a while, and I felt that my hands were almost numb. No way, I tried resisting, hugging, and dragging all kinds of ways.
When the goods were moved into the store, I had injuries on my hands, shoulders and even legs. But I was desperate to find out that this was going to be sorted and put on the shelves!
Those who have worked or been to hardware stores should know that some shelves are high, and they have to step on the herringbone ladder to get there, and I dare not move one box at a time, so I can only unpack the package, and then take it up a few times!
It's almost ten o'clock, and I feel like I'm not going to have any energy left, and I'm only halfway there. At this time, the door of the store suddenly opened, and I saw that the bamboo pole was coming, my God, I really felt that the bamboo pole was like a savior!
When the bamboo pole saw me, he said in surprise, ", Shunzi, you are really here! I looked for you at night and you were not in the dormitory, and I thought something had happened to you!"
I just lay motionless on the ground and said, "I'll take care of the rest." ”
The bamboo pole looked at the scene and complained, "This Lao Li is really not a thing, he actually let you do this by yourself." ”
I laughed, "You say that, are you really good?"
Then the bamboo pole took over my work, don't look at him thin, he really has the strength, I don't know if he has been practicing since he was a child, and he does this work quickly and methodically. In about half an hour, everything was in order.
