It was still dark outside, and there was already the sound of small footsteps in the living room.

Li Dong rolled up in a leap, hurriedly dressed and pushed the door out.

Li Chengyuan was just about to go out, when he saw his son get dressed and walked out, he was stunned for a moment and said with concern: "Did you wake you up?" You will rest tomorrow and go back to sleep for a while, it will only be past two o'clock. ”

"No, I got up on my own. Li Dong hurriedly washed his face with cold water and said, "Dad, I'll go with you!"

Before his mother got up, Li Dong lowered her voice.

Under normal circumstances, my father goes to buy goods first, and then my mother follows me to open a stall, so I can sleep a little more than my father every day.

"What are you going to do with me? Go back to sleep, it's cold outside......"

"Dad, I'll take a look, I haven't been to the place where you buy fish for so many years, anyway, just come back to catch up on sleep when you're okay during the day." ”

Without saying anything, he pushed his father out of the door together, and Li Chengyuan had no choice but to let his son follow.

It's not cold in April, but it's still a little cool when the dew rises overnight.

Li Dong tightened his clothes, Li Chengyuan had already taken out the pedal tricycle that was placed downstairs to transport goods, beckoned Li Dong to sit down, and rode the tricycle towards the suburbs.

Along the way, the father and son did not have many words, and there was always silence between the father and the son.

It wasn't until nearly twenty minutes of riding that a light came from the darkness and a faint human voice.

Li Chengyuan found a place to stop the tricycle, patted Li Dong's shoulder and introduced it as he walked.

"This is the Dongping market, and we usually buy here, not only us, but also all vegetables and fruits. They are all delivered by large trucks at night, and they leave at dawn. ”

"Usually, there are also second-class dealers from the countryside who also ship here, and sometimes you can meet some good things when you come early, not to mention that they are cheap and easy to sell. ”

"But you have to look carefully, none of these guys are easy to get along with, shoddy is not once or twice, and it is common to go dark under the lamp. For example, live shrimp mixed with some dead shrimp......"

"Also, sometimes some wholesalers come late, the first to call the high price, do not buy and are afraid that the people behind will not come when the time is broken, gritted their teeth into the high-priced goods, but the back wholesalers come again, the price will fall, the front of the purchase will be lost, and the high price can not be sold to the discount ......"

Li Chengyuan introduced Li Dong all the way, not thinking about letting his son take over his class, but letting his son have more life experience.

These experiences are only known to veteran vendors like them, otherwise they all make money, why so many newly opened stalls are closing at a loss.

No matter what work you do in the future, it's always good to have a little more experience.

Li Dong listened obediently, and from time to time looked at the aquatic products in various large trucks.

Li Chengyuan had a familiar supplier, and led Li Dong for a few minutes before stopping at a truck around the corner.

"Lao Wang, are there any good goods this time? Yesterday, half of your shrimp died, and you still cheated me, and you lost more than 100 yuan......"

Li Chengyuan greeted loudly from afar, and a few people were squatting on the side of the truck looking at the goods, and a short and fat middle-aged man hurriedly turned around and scolded with a smile: "As soon as I heard it, I knew that it was your big mouth, and you were happy to mess up my business, right? I told you that some shrimp died yesterday, didn't I give you a cheaper......

While the two were chatting, Li Chengyuan began to look at the goods, the Li family's stall is not big, and there are not many things to enter, so there is no need to run a few suppliers, this one is enough.

Li Dong was not idle, taking advantage of his father's inspection of the goods to go around to see if there were any lobsters for sale.

I looked at seven or eight before and after, and sure enough, Dongping didn't have this thing here, but there were some, but there were very few.

I am afraid that several together are not 500 catties, here is the largest aquatic product wholesale market in Dongping, and the sales of lobsters in the entire Dongping County are only so little a day.

Even if it is not yet the official season to eat lobster, the nearly 400,000 people in Dongping County eat lobster.

Li Dong was a little disappointed, could he go to the countryside to buy it?

Although Dongping is located inland, there are many rivers and lakes, and lobsters breed quickly and are easy to feed.

There are a lot of things in the countryside, but there are not many people who sell them, and the rural people like to feed them to chickens and ducks, and the rest is at most eaten at home, and not many people specialize in breeding this thing.

"Alas!"

sighed, could it be that he was not good at becoming a teacher, and he had to think of other ways to succeed in the first pot of gold?

Just as he was frowning, Lao Wang, who had just been talking to his father, walked over, handed over a cigarette and said with a smile: "Baby, Lao Li's family?"

"Well, thank you!"

Naturally, he took the cigarette and lit it with the fire, Li Dong took a deep breath, and then remembered that he had forgotten to smoke when he came back from rebirth.

This is a good thing, I smoked a lot of dry sales in my previous life, and I couldn't wash off a smell of smoke on my body, and I lost several orders for this.

"I see you've turned around, are you going to pick up your father's stall?" Lao Wang couldn't help but smile when he saw that the young man in front of him was smoking, and it seemed that he was also an old cigarette stick.

"Hehe, I don't have that idea yet. Just look, by the way, Uncle Wang, I don't think there are many lobsters?" Li Dong pretended to say casually, Lao Wang is an expert after all, and he must know better than himself.

Spit out the smoke ring, Lao Wang smiled and said, "That thing is not easy to sell, and the price is not high." I heard that Pingchuan is quite easy to sell, but we have no way over there, and the road is far away, so we are too lazy to bother with that god. ”

"What, you have an idea?"

Li Dong's heart moved, this business is really not simple, he thought that no one knew the market in Pingchuan, but he didn't expect Lao Wang to know.

But fortunately, these wholesalers in Dongping only guard their own one-third of an acre, and few have the ambition to go to the provincial capital, otherwise they will not be able to take their turn.

"What can you think, didn't I eat a plate at the barbecue stall last night and it tasted good, I don't think if the market is good, let my dad buy some goods and make a little money." ”

Li Dong avoided the past and dealt with it lightly, and continued: "Uncle Wang, do you think that if I buy a few thousand catties in Dongping, can I sell it?"

"Hehe, it's a little hard. But this thing is durable, even if it is out of the water for a week, it can't die, and it shouldn't be able to lose a few thousand catties, but I'm afraid it won't be earned, and it's hard and laborious. ”

Lao Wang scoffed at Li Dong's thoughts, but he didn't persuade them, it's normal for young people to think more, anyway, it's not his son, and it's not his loss if he loses.

"I want to try, Uncle Wang, I don't see that there are many lobsters in this batch, it's hard to get a few thousand catties, right?" Li Dong continued to talk.

"Haha, then you're wrong. There are more of these things in the countryside, but they are too lazy to buy them, and the profits are too small. If you really want it, it's not difficult for your Uncle Wang to get you a thousand catties. ”

Lao Wang said secretly, no matter how small the mosquito's legs are, they are still meat, if this kid can really make 10,000 catties of goods, the profit will be thousands.

Hearing Lao Wang's words, Li Dong was overjoyed, and it seemed that the money had been earned by himself.

Hurriedly beckoned Lao Wang to the side and whispered: "Uncle Wang, I really have some ideas, can you tell me how much this lobster costs a catty?"

"Two pieces of five for the red shell and five pieces for the green shell, how much do you want?" Lao Wang is a connoisseur, and the price comes casually.

The green shell is not easy to sell, Li Dong is not interested, and the red shell is only two and a half, which is simply incomparable with the thirty or forty in later generations.

However, he is not clear about the market in the provincial capital now, although he knows that it must be higher than Dongping, but Li Dong doesn't want to take risks, so he thinks about it and says: "Uncle Wang, you give me a call, I'll go back and think about it, and I'll call you when the time comes." ”

"Your dad has ......"

"Don't, don't tell my dad, you know my dad, cowardly. If my dad found out, he wouldn't be able to agree, so I wanted to try it myself, and then tell my dad if I made it. ”

Lao Wang is a good person, and the business of making money is not done in vain, so when he heard this, he hurriedly handed a business card to Li Dong.

Even if the business doesn't work, it doesn't matter, anyway, it's just a business card, if it becomes a few thousand dollars in the account, it's not bad, and the lobster thing will be a pound of money when it is collected in the countryside.

continued to talk to Lao Wang for a few words, someone over there wanted to settle the bill, Lao Wang began to get busy, and he didn't have time to talk to Li Dong anymore.

Eggs can't be put in one basket, Li Dong saw that his father was still pulling the skin, and continued to walk a few merchants who had just sold lobsters, and used the same way to get a few business cards before stopping.

Back to Lao Wang, Li Chengyuan has already purchased the goods.

Seeing Li Dong coming, he said with a smile: "How about it? Have you never seen so many kinds of aquatic products, our stall is small, and there are few varieties, and when we have spare money one day, we will also get a storefront." ”

Li Dong smiled and said perfunctory, the secret stall is small enough for you to be busy, if you are big, you must not be tired to death.

As far as the character of my parents is concerned, I am definitely reluctant to hire people, regardless of whether I can make money or not, it is better to end this business as soon as possible.

After chatting with his father for a few words, Li Chengyuan had to go back to the market to prepare for the stall, but Li Dong didn't go with him, and went home first.

He planned to go to the provincial capital today to explore the way, and he stayed in Pingchuan for 12 years, and it was not difficult to find the way there.

If you can really make money, you have to prepare to distribute goods.

As for the cost, I also have a way, taking advantage of the information gap between this time and the official summer, I have to make a good profit.

Once the news from Pingchuan spreads, the merchants of Dongping will not let it go, no matter how stupid they are.

Whether it is the network or the channel cost, they can't compare with them, and no matter how much meat there is, they won't have their own share, and they will be tired during this time.

Thinking like this, the speed under Li Dong's feet couldn't help but speed up a few points.
