Chapter 71: Rent a warehouse
On the same day, under the supervision of Jiang Hui, Boss Zhao arranged the delivery of the down jacket. When he got the pickup order, Jiang Hui transferred 480,000 yuan to Pengyu Company's account. Jiang Jin's trip came to a successful end.
The latest flight is tomorrow morning, Jiang Hui refused Boss Zhao's invitation to have dinner together in the evening, and everyone burned their eyebrows, probably just being polite with themselves.
That night, Jiang Hui invited Uncle Tianxiang to dinner again, and suggested that he find a few people to cooperate in setting up a small workshop, do an online store sales business, and maybe achieve financial freedom after a few years.
When it comes to financial freedom, different people have different understandings of it. An ordinary migrant worker and a foreign company Gaocheng, the former may feel that he has hundreds of thousands, and a few thousand yuan a month is financial freedom, and the latter may feel that he needs a monthly salary of tens of thousands, millions of savings, and a house and a car to be considered financial freedom.
No matter who you are, when you don't have to work hard for money for living expenses, you can actually be considered financially free. To put it simply, the passive income generated by your assets must be at least equal to or exceed your daily expenses, which is the state that most of us aspire to achieve, and if we enter this state, we can justifiably say that we are financially free.
The degree of financial freedom is not an equal relationship with the amount of wealth a person has. You achieve financial freedom when you want to do something or buy a good that you have now and are willing to pay, or that you can get and pay for within a time that you can tolerate. On the other hand, if you have a lot of money, but you don't know what you want to spend, and what you spend money on is not what you really need, but what you really want is what you can't buy, then you have not achieved financial freedom.
Jiang Hui felt that he was very close and far from financial freedom. If you pursue a low point, then don't toss, after this down jacket business is done, buy a few houses in the imperial capital, and then go to school well, sit and wait for the house price to appreciate, you can easily achieve financial freedom in the eyes of ordinary people. But I am obviously no longer satisfied with this state, for myself, financial freedom is no longer simply measured by money, time, and thoughts are part of property. Only by realizing freedom of thought and freedom of time can financial freedom be meaningful to Jiang Hui.
Why does a person create wealth, where does he create wealth, how much wealth is created, how much wealth is acquired, where is this wealth used, how is this wealth used, how is it used, how is it handled, how is it related to oneself, and how is it related to others?...... And so these questions are related to one's own thoughts and values. The ancestors said: If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world. Jiang Hui hopes that through his own efforts, he can make his classmates and friends, his colleagues and employees in the future, so that more related personnel and even the industry can become better, and can bring some beneficial changes to the world.
After Jiang Hui returned to school with a few samples of down jackets, he immediately made an appointment with the boss Tang Minghua, Dai Fuqian and Li Shigui to meet together. 60,000 down jackets will arrive next week, and how to sell them is the most urgent and important thing now.
Several people are now considered to be people with rich sales experience, as usual, sales must also be able to remove part of the inventory, selling a month is estimated to be able to sell half of it, but the remaining half is estimated to be not so easy to sell, down jackets are seasonal products after all, they are not sold in the winter, and the speed of selling will definitely be slow.
Discuss and discuss, and there is no better way for the time being, so I have to let everyone go and sell first as in the past. Jiang Hui set a uniform price for everyone, and if more than 100 pieces were taken together, they would be 50 yuan a piece, and then the price would gradually increase, and when they were 10 pieces at a time, they would rise to 60 yuan a piece, and they would not do business if they were less than 10 pieces at a time.
There is one more thing that Jiang Hui needs to complete this week. There are 20,000 pieces of this batch of goods, which are difficult to put down in the rental house, and it is not very convenient to transport, so it is best to rent a warehouse near the school for temporary storage.
If you are in the suburbs, it is estimated that it is easy to find, and you can find a large empty house to deal with it. But it is not so easy in the Third Ring Road, no matter how cheap the house price is, it is also relative to future generations, and now from everyone's point of view, the houses and land in the Third Ring Road are already expensive.
After two days of wandering around, Jiang Hui finally found a warehouse not far from the school and was willing to rent it out temporarily for two months. It is said that it is a warehouse, but it is actually a row of self-built houses, and there is a car beauty shop next to it, and it is estimated that people do not need such a large space, so an independent hall is vacated, with an area of more than 100 square meters, which is enough to put down Jiang Hui's batch of goods.
Jiang Hui signed the contract with the landlord, paid the deposit and the first month's rent, and got the key to the warehouse.
Jiang Hui also chatted with the landlord by the way to see if there was a recommended truck driver, and when the time came, he still needed to find someone to pull the goods back from the freight yard of the railway station, and it was best to be able to contact the car in advance to avoid being in a hurry after receiving the goods. The landlord really recommended a few masters, and left a phone number for Jiang Hui to let Jiang Hui contact him himself.
The logistics industry in 03 is still in a relatively backward state, and various handling companies are not as formal as later generations. If you put it more than ten years later, open Dianping or Taobao, etc., and enter moving, transporting goods and the like, there are countless moving companies for you to choose from, such as ant moving, brother and sister moving, etc., a phone call, large, medium and small models of various types can be quickly sent over according to demand, Jiang Hui only needs to be responsible for paying, and the rest don't have to worry about it, there is no need to find customers like now, and customers don't know where the driver is.
Recently, Jiang Hui has been busy with his own affairs, but he has neglected Bai Xue a little. Fortunately, Bai Xue saw that Jiang Hui was busy every day, and he didn't have any complaints.
Back at school in the evening, Jiang Hui had a rare dinner with Bai Xue.
"It's hard to even see your shadow recently, I've been staying with Song Min all day, and people are still worried about whether we quarreled", Bai Xue said to Jiang Hui in a somewhat coquettish tone.
"A few days ago, I went to other places to negotiate a business and bought 60,000 down jackets, so I was busy looking for warehouses and arranging sales promotions these days, and I felt a little too busy," Jiang Hui said.
"Aren't you having a few people and classmates to help you?" you have to make sure that you don't get tired," Bai Xue said.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Hehe, I'll know if I'm tired and go back and try it at night", Jiang Hui said with a wicked smile.
After saying this, Bai Xue's eyes were naturally blankly struck: "I'm going to die, and I can say anything nonsense in public places."
