Chapter 138: Buying Empty and Selling Short
The area of the guest house in Longqu County is not small, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is beautiful.
To the west of it is the bay of the Dragon Canal, where a shallow river three or four meters wide is diverted, leaving deep silt and reeds, as well as specially planted lotus flowers, which at this time reveal bare stalks, like water ballet dancers drowning in them.
Most of the buildings in the prefectural guest house are bungalows, and there are 10-bed and 8-bed Chase shops open to the public, and tourists from the north and south can live at will.
There are two buildings, both of which belong to the "small guest house", that is, the scope of small tricks. One is a newly renovated four-story county party committee building, with a carpet inside the grass door at the door, as the name suggests, for the county party committee to entertain VIPs. The other building is only 2 floors, which was built by the commune party committee at the end of the 50s in order to "run into the ** society", the quality is not bad, and all of them are renovated into standard rooms for 4 people.
Now, in order to cooperate with the Debang Water Heater Factory, Xiaozhao's 2-story running building has also been transferred, and the bosses from other places are scurrying around in different standard rooms.
"Is there a bill of lading?" Wang Shuo carried a backpack that would never leave him, and his small eyes had a strange light.
"Lao Wang, here you are again?" The Shaanxi * Western man who slept in it turned over and scolded with a smile: "You say that you are annoyed or not, ask three times a day." ”
Wang Shuo was not annoyed by what he said, and said with a smile: "You may have a bill of lading when you will have it." ”
"I want to have it, it's falling from the sky!"
"3750 one, if you want it, I'll give it to you. Wang Shuo took out a bill of lading and said with a smile: "Don't you have this." ”
The people of Shaanxi were stunned: "Good guy, how much did you collect?"
"3750 for next year. 10 units increase the price of 1500, and there are 100 units, 3740 units. ”
"Good fellow, you're too ruthless. ”
Wang Shuo smiled while carrying his backpack and said, "Debang's water heater has been sold until March next year, and you are still waiting here, don't you just want to buy a list?"
This is also true. Longqu County is barely a traffic artery. But for the merchants, it was just a passing place, and the people who stayed in this running building were all looking at the list of water heaters.
Wang Shuo is not alone. Almost everyone is interested in lists, but not too many are interested in water heaters.
After all, make money with lists. It's much easier than shipping the goods. For example, Wang Shuo sent the truck back, and he was concentrating on dumping the list here.
The man from Shaanxi sat up, looked at the other people in the room, and said vaguely: "If it is a bill of lading within this year, it will be about the same." ”
“3820。 The earliest bill of lading was in Wang Shuo's hands, and the delivery was made on December 15, and a total of 300 units were delivered in the next 15 days. In January of the following year, the number of water heaters increased to 1,000. Then there was an increase of 2000 units, 3000 units. Therefore, the earlier the list of water heaters, the more valuable it is.
The man from Shaanxi said dissatisfiedly: "You spent 3,600 yuan on a list, and now you will raise the price by 2,200? ”
Wang Shuo fiddled with his backpack. smiled: "There are only so many lists before New Year's Day, if you don't want it, I'll give it to others." Let's say privately that next year's list is also cost-effective, and Debang Water Heater Factory is only willing to put the list out until March next year and add it together. Less than 10,000 units, hey, some are rising. ”
When they pay the deposit, it is 10% of the price, but when the price is raised, it is naturally based on 3,600 yuan. Therefore, a list of 20 water heaters can double the profit by turning the head.
This is something that Su Cheng never expected, he didn't expect that a small bill of lading could be seized by these primitive businessmen, and the white wolf with empty gloves.
Bold businessmen have long seen the changes of the times, and without a master's degree in business administration, self-employed people who graduated from high school can also understand the benefits of short selling and buying. Sometimes it's a refrigerator, sometimes it's a washing machine, sometimes it's a TV......
For Debang Water Heater Factory, the 10% deposit really solves the urgent need. Shu Hao has been doing it for more than a year, and he has earned five or six hundred thousand yuan by saving money. Although it exceeds many people, this money is absolutely not enough to engage in production and purchase equipment.
In fact, if it weren't for Sioux City's suggestion and help in finding a loan, this water heater factory might have really taken two or three years to build, and it could only produce barely usable water heaters.
Now, with the replenishment of the deposit, the repayment of bank interest is much easier, and the factory can recruit more workers and store more materials.
However, in order to avoid policy risks, Debang Electric Appliances stopped ordering without hesitation after raising enough funds, and as a result, this also became an excuse for price increases in running buildings.
Before Wang Shuo left with his back, the man in Shaanxi roared: "3710, next year's list, Ken will give me 100 units." ”
"3750 is the lowest, man, there's no bargaining for this. ”
The two bargained for a while, but after all, there was no price reduction, so they traded a list of 100 water heaters for 3,750 yuan, but the list was replaced by 1 50 units, 2 20 units and 1 10 units.
The man from Shaanxi * West counted out forty-seven from the bag under his head and handed it to Wang Shuo. For this order, the gross profit earned by the backpack is 11,000 yuan.
In the 10 years of reform and opening up, those who earned the first pot of gold have begun to dig a gold mine and a second gold mine. Compared to ordinary people, their cash income is too high and too high, except for their inner turmoil.
It took China twenty or thirty years to complete the industrialization that took two or three hundred years to complete abroad. It took many Chinese twenty or thirty years to complete the accumulation of wealth that took two or three hundred years abroad.
47,000 yuan may be more than the savings of the entire village in an ordinary village, but in the running building, it is just 4 thin pieces of paper.
Even if the paper is replaced with a real water heater, it will not be enough for the farmers in a village to distribute.
The backpack didn't come back after a long time.
The man in the same room with the Shaanxi * West originally wanted to wait for another round, but he couldn't help but go out for a while, and came back and said, "Brother, can you sell me a list?"
"Which one do you want?"
"20 units, 3750 is not, I add 10 yuan. ”
In this way, 20 units will have to add 200 yuan, which is three months' salary for ordinary people.
The man from Shaanxi was not satisfied, and said with a smile: "Brother, I still want to take a look at it tomorrow, and when the time comes, it is estimated that it will be able to reach 3770." ”
"That's 3770. The men in the same room also began to take money from the pockets in their jackets.
He lifted his clothes, and around his waist was a circle of old cowhide bags, in which stacks of banknotes were tied with cowhide bands.
The two of them paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, but the door did not come out, and the price of the water heater was raised by 20 yuan.
The man in the same room got the list, took a closer look, and went out again.
When he returned, the deflated bag bulged back again.
A similar scenario occurred in a row over several days. However, on a national scale, it is not new, and the price increase information seen in the newspapers every day has made the people of the country from shock to numbness. It is stipulated that only those who have a household registration book or marriage certificate can buy a certain amount of salt, matches and aluminum pots......
Dong*ying and Longqu are both slow cities, but at the end of the year, rising prices and slow-adjusting wages have inevitably caused panic.
The oilfield workers are better, because they have products, they can easily exchange crude oil for daily necessities, which are distributed to workers as welfare, and the standard of living will not fall too much.
The research institute is not good, the entire Shengli Oilfield, except for the Dahua Laboratory, which can afford benefits, the other researchers only have dead salaries. Those who engage in ethanol cannot afford to drink alcohol, and those who engage in rubber vulcanization cannot afford to sit in a car, and it is not a matter of one or two days.
Qin Shiwei, who had just taken office, couldn't sit still, and when he failed to reconcile his fate with the Bureau, he simply borrowed a jeep and drove from Dong*ying to Jinan, and from Jin*nan to Longqu, only to see Sioux City in the semi-open factory building of the Debang Water Heater Factory.
Qin Shiwei was really anxious, and when he saw Su Cheng's back, he rushed over like a bear, even if he deliberately hardened the floor for the lathe, he couldn't help but tremble under his feet.
He didn't care about Shu Hao and the others next to him, grabbed Su Cheng's neck with a fan-like hand, and shouted, "I finally caught you." ”
Such a bear-like man stunned everyone in front of him.
"Is this revenge?" Liu Pinshan had already begun to complete the plot in his head.
On the contrary, a few nearby workers lifted their wrenches and iron rods and shouted, "Put down Director Su." ”
Su Cheng actually does not work in the Debang water heater factory, he has been running a lot of time in Longqu recently, but there are more things during the construction of the factory, and the future management work is still in charge of Liu Pinshan and Shu Hao.
However, for the workers, whoever can make the product, who can sell the product for money, and who can pay the salary, then he is not the factory director, but also the factory director. Debang water heaters have not yet started to sell, and part of the deposit has been turned into arrears of wages and paid to the workers, and the name of "Director Su" is naturally in full swing.
A few more workers made a big circle and blocked the door of the workshop, they were afraid that Qin Shiwei would run away if he robbed Su City.
Although Su Cheng was stronger than ordinary people, Qin Shiwei was stronger than Chang Xiong, and he stood in the aisle left by the two rows of machines, making the aisle feel narrower.
Even with sticks in hand, everyone was not confident that they could defeat Qin Shiwei, but the workers still bravely surrounded them, like a pack of wolves against a lone bear.
Su Cheng coughed heavily, held Qin Shiwei's shoulder, and smiled: "Dean Qin, what are you doing here?"
"Misunderstood, don't get me wrong. Qin Shiwei also realized it, hurriedly apologized to the surrounding workers, turned his head, and said solemnly: "Actually, this is the case, Director Su, I am here to sell myself!
The worker again clenched the iron bar.
