Chapter 38: I'm Making Money, I'm Making Money
Before nine o'clock, the villagers who came to catch the temple fair came one after another, and the people living in the city also came out of their homes to the temple fair to find treasures. Hanoi's main thoroughfares quickly become crowded with people, not to mention cars, and even pedestrians are shoulder-to-shoulder.
At this time, all the vendors who set up the stalls tried their best to solicit business.
Some bosses put a high-power speaker with a recording and playback function on the stall, playing advertisements in a loop, and what Jiangnan tannery, the boss and his sister-in-law ran away, tearfully and at great discounts.
Some bosses walked out directly from behind their stalls and took their products and seriously sold them to customers.
Some bosses even forcibly stopped passers-by in front of their stalls, saliva flying and bragging about how good their products were.
Every time the doll boss next to Tang He saw a pedestrian with a child passing by in front of the stall, he waved the doll in his hand desperately, for fear that he would not attract the attention of the children.
In such a bizarre ukiyo-e of life, Tang He and Wu Wei sat a little quietly.
There was no need to solicit customers at all, and a group of people were attracted by the banners hanging in front of the stalls, and they took the initiative to come over with great interest and ask what was going on.
When they heard that they had to pay ten yuan before they were qualified to write, some people left, but more people were moved, and they were attracted by the idea of 10 yuan for a large doll, you must know that on the doll stall next to Tang He, the dolls with the same prizes as Tang He are worth more than 50.
In any era, there are people who like to take advantage of small advantages. And now it is not as advanced as in the previous life, and most ordinary people can also understand and see through various tricks and scams through various channels.
Some people clearly have no need for dolls, but when they heard that 10 yuan could be exchanged for a doll worth more than 50 yuan, they still sat down excitedly.
So Tang He and Wu Wei's stalls were quickly overcrowded.
There are adults who have the psychology of taking advantage and specialize in picking up leaks
There are also adults who are curious about why the stall owner wants to do such a business, isn't it a sure loss, so they come to try it.
I like large dolls, and I have been begging my parents yesterday, but today I cleverly pointed to the banner on Tang He's stall and said that this tall doll only costs ten yuan, and then I worked hard to grind the precious ten yuan from my parents' pockets, and the child who ran in happily.
There are also parents who come out with their children to buy things and see that their children are bored, thinking that it is better to let the children sit in this place where the numbers are written for a while, and save themselves from running around, and the children are also very interested in this game, so they stuff the children in.
It's the same procedure for all.
Pay the money, sit on the bench, get paper and pens, and lie on the table with 1 to 600 for elementary school students.
There are occasionally a few children in a group of adults, and this scene makes people want to laugh.
The results were not long in coming.
A lot of people have already made mistakes before they have written 200.
The best one wrote 456, and when he made a mistake when writing 457, he wrote 457 as 456 again. "Made, when I see 45, I can't help but want to write a 6 at the end. The man was a little annoyed.
The person with the worst score made a mistake when he wrote 31, and he got up from the bench unwillingly, and this person said: "My hands are bald, I feel that my brain reacts faster than my hands, and if I am not careful, I will make a mistake." ”
A child who made a mistake when he wrote 103 was about to cry.
Someone made an error when writing 231, and after writing 231, it was written as 234.
Someone made a mistake when writing 121, and after writing 120, he wrote the number 2 first.
Someone makes an error when writing 125, and after writing 124, they write 152.
Basically, numbers within 100 are still fine for most people.
But once 100 is up, most people will make mistakes when carrying. As soon as they see the previous number, they can't help but think of the next number (for example, after 109, it should be 110, and the result is written as 10X again).
Some people do not believe in evil and pay money again and work hard.
Some people saw that the time was not early, so they could only leave unwillingly.
There are also people who lose interest early, and even if there is no mistake, they put down the pen and paper and leave.
In the morning, Tang He and Wu Wei's stall was crowded, so that the two of them almost didn't get busy.
This lively scene not only surpassed Tang He and Wu Wei's surprise, but also stunned a group of vendors who paid attention to the two of them who had laughed at them in the morning.
In addition, there was not even a single person who successfully wrote 1 to 600 in the whole morning, and none of the large dolls Tang He hung on the movable rack were given away.
In the afternoon, buying and selling continued.
In order to be able to accept more customers, Tang He changed his routine from the afternoon.
It is still to pay ten yuan to write 1 to 600, as long as there are no errors and alterations in the writing process, in addition to sending a large doll after completion, the ten yuan will also be returned unconditionally. Of course, if you make a mistake, the ten yuan will go to the stall owner. It's just that Tang He limited the time for everyone involved this time to only half an hour.
The result is still the same.
Finally, at 5 o'clock, a young man successfully wrote 1 to 600 as required, which was also Tang He's a little bit of water.
This young man has already paid the money six times without believing in evil, and if he can't do it again, he will have to be angry and ashamed.
When Tang He loudly announced that the young man had completed his writing, he could not only get a one-person-tall doll, but also get back 10 yuan for 3 writing, the customers who were still lying on the table and the passers-by were attracted to him.
It's another wave of the rhythm of paying money.
And this young man chose his favorite doll and happily walked out for a long time, only to find out: Nima, Lao Tzu just bought dolls at the doll stall next door, and now he wasted a whole day's effort!
It wasn't until the sky was dark and night fell that the people in front of the writing booth disappeared one after another.
Tang He and Wu Wei began to clean up the battlefield.
moved the table and stool to the small four-wheeler who had been waiting for a while on the side of the road, and stored the remaining dolls with the doll boss to pack, Tang He and Wu Wei slipped away.
When they arrived at Wu Wei's house, hiding in Wu Wei's bedroom, the two poured the banknotes in their small leather bags on the bed and began to count.
It's not that I don't know, but I'm shocked.
After counting the total number of banknotes, not only Wu Wei, but even Tang He was taken aback.
The whole 9,890 yuan is about to break 10,000.
And what about the cost?
It only cost 38 bucks. Of them, 18 yuan is the cost of the doll, and the other 20 yuan is the management fee paid today.
Huge profits!
The two set up a stall at 7 o'clock in the morning, and officially began to receive customers at 8:30 in the morning.
By 7:30 p.m., it took 11 hours to complete the day.
On average, I earned nearly 900 yuan in an hour!
What is the concept of 900 yuan in this era?
An ordinary worker only earns three or four hundred a month!
Tang He and Wu Wei first looked at each other, and then they couldn't help laughing.
