Chapter 5 New Purchasing Methods
When I arrived at the main street of Huaiyang Town, there was no market today, and the street was a little deserted, Luo Ning looked for it while walking according to the vague memory in his mind, and after a while, he walked out of the street and came to a village in the west.
The last time I came to buy the goods, because Lin Fang didn't have enough goods, I took him to the house to get the inventory. After walking the road once, there are still some impressions. The road in the village is much more complicated, and Luo Fan doesn't remember, but fortunately, most of the people in the village know each other, and after inquiring, he found Lin Fang's home.
Luo Fan stood outside the gate and shouted, "Is Sister Lin Fang at home?"
After a while, Lin Fang came out of the house and asked as he walked, "Who? Ouch, it's Luo Fan, come in and sit." You're here at the right time, you finished my inventory last time, and I didn't even go to the last episode, so I stocked up at home. I had just finished stocking up and was going to sell at the market tomorrow when you came. ”
Luo Fan smiled and said, "Yes, Sister Lin Fang, but this time I want to buy goods from you in a different way." ”
Lin Fang looked at him in surprise: "What way?"
Luo Fan sat down, first smoothed out his words in his heart, and then spoke: "That's the case, Sister Lin Fang." You see, we've dealt with each other twice, so we can be considered acquaintances. I see that you have to weave knots and set up a stall by yourself, which is very hard and a waste of time. It's better to cooperate with us directly in the future, sell all the goods to us, you don't have to go to the market to set up stalls, you can save time and make more. ”
Lin Fang didn't expect Luo Fan to think like this, and was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, thought about this suggestion for a while, and said, "Is it necessary?
"It's different, Sister Lin Fang. Although we are now your biggest buyer, we can change our minds at any time and not buy your goods as soon as we have a better supply. You don't know when we're going to get the goods, so you'll have to go to the market and sell them yourself. And we don't know how many goods we can get each time, whether we can get them or not. This simple way of buying and selling is not guaranteed for either of us. Luo Fan analyzed, these words were taught by Luo Ning, he just read from the book, and he spoke fluently.
Lin Fang pondered for a moment: "There is indeed such a possibility as you said. So how do you think we can work together?"
"It's very simple, we sign the contract, all your goods will be sold to us in the future, we will collect them regularly, and settle the payment on the spot for each transaction. In this way, you can weave with confidence and not worry about selling. We can also have a stable supply of goods, which is good for both parties. In the future, when business gets better, you can also take in a few more apprentices and weave more chains. We can also expand our business. What do you think?"
Lin Fang smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so smart at such a young age!" This is a good idea, but the details still need to be discussed. ”
Luo Fan smiled and said, "Of course, Sister Lin Fang, what do you want?"
In the evening, when Luo Fan returned home, it was already dark, so he went to Luo Ning's house to get farm tools first, but saw Luo Ning's grandmother and third mother-in-law enjoying the shade in the courtyard, and Bai Haohan, the cousin of the third aunt's family, was also there, so he shouted: "Third mother-in-law, Haohan." ”
The third woman saw that it was him, and said with a loving smile: "Xiaofan, did you come back so late? Your grandfather has already had dinner, you don't have to worry about him." Have you eaten?"
Luo Fan shook his head and said, "Not yet, just eat some noodles in a while." ”
The third woman immediately stood up: "Why bother, come on, come on, there are still some meals at home, and the third woman will give you hot food." ”
Luo Fan looked at the back of the third woman with a slight gauntness, and her eyes were a little hot. The family is so good to him, even better than his father, and he feels very happy.
Bai Haohan ran to Luo Fan's side and took Luo Fan's hand and said, "Big brother, where have you been these days?"
Luo Fan said: "I'm going to Longkou, your aunt's." Your sister Luo Ning is also there. ”
Bai Haohan shouted: "Big brother, I'm going too, I'm going too." Then he ran to his grandmother and cried: "Grandma, I want to go to my aunt's place to play, I want to play with Sister Luo Ning." ”
Ye Qiuhua touched his head and said, "Haohan, your aunt can't live there, you can't go." You're good, Luo Ning will be back after a while. ”
Bai Haohan cried: "No, I'm going, I'm going!"
Ye Qiuhua shook his head helplessly, ignored him, and brought the hot meal to the table for Luo Fan to eat.
Luo Fan said to the third woman while eating: "Third woman, I just came back from Longkou today, Xiao Ning asked me to tell you, she is very good, I miss you very much!"
The third woman's face was like a smile, and she said, "Oh, this child, what do you think, tell her to have fun, don't worry about home." You have been running alone in the mountains during this time, you are still young, pay attention to safety, don't be tired. ”
Luo Fan agreed repeatedly, and his eyes turned red again. It's a good feeling to be cared for!
After eating, Bai Haohan was also tired from crying, and fell asleep on the bench.
Luo Fan returned to his house and happened to meet Luo Zhenxing coming back. As soon as Luo Zhenxing saw him, he said, "Just come back?"
"Hmm. Rofan put the farming tools back in the corner.
"Have you eaten? I'm going to cook now. Luo Zhenxing still remembers his son.
"Eat. You just get your own. Luo Fan replied.
When he went to the house and turned on the light, Dahu hadn't come back yet, and he didn't care. It's best to come back later, it's best not to get up tomorrow morning. He didn't have to go with him.
While Luo Zhenxing was cooking, Luo Fan walked into the kitchen and said, "I already have the tuition for the next semester, you don't have to worry." ”
Luo Zhenxing said nonchalantly: "Got it." What is the reading head of the book, it is better to start earning money as soon as possible, and learn the craft later. ”
Luo Fan was silent, he was only ten years old, what could he do? If it weren't for Luo Ning, he wouldn't even be able to earn money for tuition. He suddenly remembered what Luo Ning said that day: "Brother, if you read more books in the future, you will be able to do a bigger business." "Perhaps, reading is still useful. Luo Fan was a little confused, for a ten-year-old child, why should he study? This topic is too profound. He only knew that all his companions were studying, and he should too.
At twelve o'clock in the night, Luo Fan was awakened by the sound of the earth-shattering knock on the door, opened the door, and Dahu walked in with a dejected face, looking like he had lost money. didn't ask where he slept, he just fell on Luo Fan's bed and said, "Call me tomorrow morning." ”
Luo Fan closed the door and went back to sleep.
After eight o'clock in the morning the next day, Luo Fan came to Lin Fang's house with the big tiger. Lin Fang had already prepared the goods and took out a list, and Luo Fan counted the quantities according to the list, one hundred pieces of each, exactly fifty yuan. Luo Fan paid the money in full, and then asked Dahu to put the goods in his backpack.
After walking out of Lin Fang's house, Dahu asked strangely, "How does she know how many goods we want to buy?"
Luo Fan said lightly: "We signed a contract with Sister Lin Fang, and all her knots were sold to us." ”
When Dahu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then squeezed out a smile for a while: "Great! Then no one will be able to steal our business from now on." ”
Luo Fan said: "Of course. ”
The two took the goods and did not stop for a moment, taking a bus in Huaiyang Town to Baishui Town first, and then transferring to a bus up the mountain to rush back to Longkou.
Since it was the first time to cooperate, the enthusiasm of the big guys was very high. Hong Limin's father is the manager of the hotel, and Hong Limin and Li Jun ran to him to ask for an idle long table, and also took an old tablecloth to set up a stall.
After setting up the stall, everyone found out that the stunned son and the third child were not there, and Li Jun asked Dahu: "What about your two brothers? ”
Dahu waved his hand: "Aren't there so many of you?
Li Jun immediately became angry: "Big Tiger, the three of you didn't pay a penny, and you said that you would work hard to arrive." If you don't call them, you three won't even think about getting a penny. ”
As soon as the big tiger heard this, he had to reluctantly say: "Can't I call it?" But his heart was itching with hatred, this trip down the mountain to get the goods, originally thought that as long as they knew where to buy the goods, they could directly get rid of them and get the goods themselves, but who knows what contract they signed? The goods were all rounded! He ran for nothing, and he was really reduced to running errands.
But reluctance is reluctance, people still have to call. The only thing I learned from this trip was knowing their purchase price. At the thought of such a high profit, he couldn't wait to want to split the money.
After more than half an hour, the stunned son and the third child came slowly. Luo Fan explained the price to the two of them, Li Jun glanced at a few friends, and everyone ran to the stone bridge guardrail to sit and rest, leaving Luo Fan and the three of them to sell there.
Fang Qi was a little unbearable: "Tell Luo Fan to come and rest too." ”
Li Jun said lightly: "Those two have never sold anything, they need Luo Fan to bring them first, and besides, can you rest assured that those two will collect money?"
Fang Qi thought that this was the reason, so he gave up.
Two hundred rope necklaces and bracelets were sold out in less than a week, which was slower than before, because the two people who were stunned and the third were often lazy, if it weren't for Li Jun and them taking turns looking at them, maybe they wouldn't be sold out in a week.
This time he earned 130 yuan, and Luo Ning got everyone's consent to take out 59 yuan and divide it as a recovery of capital. The rest of the money is used to continue restocking. The first time in business, everyone's capital doubled, and everyone was excited. The three of them are also very happy, they made three yuan so easily, and they won't be able to make a fortune in the future?
It's a pity that they watched too closely and didn't have a chance to eat money secretly, otherwise they could have made more. At present, they can only work honestly first, and after the summer vacation, they will all go back to school, and this business will be his.
Now that the whole business is watched, Luo Ning is idle. What Da Hu's idea is, she knows very well in her heart. Fortunately for now, everyone will have to go back to school after school starts, and no one can supervise them. Although she can control the accounts and purchases, it is inevitable that the money from the sale of goods will pass through their hands, and they will definitely eat the money.
It seems that sooner or later they will fall out with the big tigers, and this business will not be able to continue. Before the summer vacation is over, Luo Ning must find a way to solve this problem. She had a vague idea, but she had to talk to Sister Lin Fang first.
It was Tuesday, and Luo Ning told her mother that she and Luo Fan were going to the county seat to play and would come back in the afternoon. Jiang Fengying was a little worried and asked Li Jun to take them. Li Jun's family is in the county seat, and he is very familiar with the streets, and Jiang Fengying is also relieved to have him. Luo Ning couldn't resist his mother, so he could only agree.
