Less than two minutes later, Hou Ping followed Zhu Xiaoping and ran back breathlessly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Boss, what's the matter, I'm going to win soon," Hou Ping said when he saw Wang Qiang.
"Don't worry, I'll ask you a few questions," Wang Qiang's gaze swept across Zhu Xiaoping's five faces.
The five of them didn't speak, looking at Wang Qiang quietly.
"How much do you play with glass balls a dime?" asked Wang Qiang
"One dime, two," the five people said in unison.
"Then which of you is the best at playing with glass balls," Wang Qiang then asked.
After asking, I found that Zhu Xiaoping and the four of them all looked at Hou Ping together.
"I'm the best" Hou Ping was a little embarrassed by Zhu Xiaoping, and raised his hand.
"Then if someone sells glass balls, three dimes, do you say you will buy this person, or buy the one in the store," Wang Qiang asked.
"It must be three dimes," Zhu Xiaoping said.
"How can anyone sell a dime or three," Wang Kai hurriedly asked.
Liu Xiaolong and Liu Chao also looked at Wang Qiang with bright eyes.
"How long have you been playing this, and how many glass balls have you won now," Wang Qiang didn't answer, and continued to look at Hou Ping and asked.
"I've been playing for more than a month, and now there are more than a hundred," Hou Ping thought for a while.
"Hou Ping, you only play occasionally, and you can win so much in a month, you are amazing," Wang Qiang said.
Hou Ping just smirked after hearing this.
"If someone buys your glass balls now, can you sell them," Wang Qiang said.
"I sell up to seventy," Hou Ping thought for a moment.
"A few of us often play with people but our skills are not as high as yours, if you can teach us the skills of playing glass balls, we can sell for more than a dollar if we win forty in a month," Wang Qiang looked at Hou Pingdao.
"Okay," Hou Ping looked at Wang Qiangdao.
In the next few days, Wang Qiang's skills in playing with glass balls improved rapidly under the teaching of Hou Ping, and several people drew inferences from each other and proposed many other things to promote mutual improvement. Although there are times when the six of them go out to play glass ball with others, they still win more overall.
A month later, they totaled almost 400 glass balls, during which Wang Qiang and they only kept less than 100, and the rest were sold to those who lost.
earned a total of more than ten yuan, but Wang Qiang still felt that making money was too slow, except for a part of the money sent to his partners, the rest were put in Wang Qiang's hands according to the shares, and Wang Qiang planned to use this money to make more money. Through observation, Wang Qiang found that the fifth and sixth grade students played with glass balls relatively rarely, so he mobilized the younger brothers to collect the glass balls of the fifth and sixth grade students for a dime five, and they also had a lot of them, most of which were won when they played glass balls when they were children. Unexpectedly, Wang Qiang and the others received five hundred glass balls, plus the total of thirty yuan they won in the second month. When Zhu Xiaoping and the others knew that they had earned such a large amount of money, they were very excited.
After having this huge amount of money, Wang Qiang felt that his business could not be limited to primary school, so he thought about how to make money from outsiders. Remembering that there is a garbage collection site on the slope north of the town, which is actually a waste recycling station, Wang Qiang asked, "Who of you knows whose garbage dump is on the north slope?"
Originally, I just had the mentality of trying it, but I didn't expect anyone to really know.
"Boss, I know that the garbage dump belongs to Liu Xiaopeng's family," Liu Xiaolong said.
Hearing Liu Xiaopeng's name, Wang Qiang remembered that there was indeed such a child in his class.
"Xiaolong, what is the relationship between you and Liu Xiaopeng," Wang Qiang asked
"The two of us are brothers, he is the child of my fifth uncle's family, and his grandfather and my grandfather are brothers," Liu Xiaolong said
"Then you call Xiaopeng over," Wang Qiang said.
Liu Xiaopeng was relatively timid, and thought that so many people were going to beat him, if Liu Xiaolong hadn't told him, I am afraid he would not have come.
"Xiaopeng, let's go to your garbage dump to play after school," Wang Qiang smiled.
"What are you doing at the garbage dump," Liu Xiaopeng said vigilantly.
Seeing that Liu Xiaopeng was so vigilant, Wang Qiang, who had no intention of doing anything bad, told his younger brother about his new plan by the way.
"There are a lot of waste items in the garbage dump, but there are definitely some things that can be used, so we will go to Xiaopeng's house in the afternoon to see if we can find good things."
After school, Wang Qiang's friends went home to say a word and then met at the bottom of the north slope. After Wang Qiang arrived, he found that everyone else had already arrived, and the seven of them walked towards Liu Xiaopeng's garbage dump. When they arrived at the garbage dump, Liu Xiaopeng's parents were there, and they were very enthusiastic when they saw Xiaopeng bringing his classmates to play, and then let them play by themselves.
Wang Qiang turned around and found a lot of treasures, thought about his plan again, and then walked up to Liu Xiaopeng's father and said, "Uncle, I want to buy some old books you received" Wang Qiang said politely.
Liu Xiaopeng's father, Liu Hongwei, was sorting waste items, and when he saw Wang Qiang coming over, he said, "Wang Qiang, why don't you go to play"
"Take whatever book you like" Liu Hongwei thought that Wang Qiang just wanted to take a book to read.
"Uncle, I want to buy more," Wang Qiang said again when he saw that Liu Hongwei didn't believe it.
"Then how much are you going to buy" This time Liu Hongwei finally made it official, put down the work in his hand and stood up.
"I want to buy thirty yuan," Wang Qiang said.
"So many, do your parents know," Liu Hongwei said in surprise.
"These are my and Zhu Xiaoping's money, and my parents also know it" In order for his business to set sail, Wang Qiang had no choice but to tell a white lie.
"Okay, uncle's old books are sold to waste paper recycling, which is one dime and two pounds, you can take it yourself at this price" Talking about business, Liu Hongwei restored the shrewdness of a businessman.
"Uncle, I'll give you a dime and a pound, I'll buy it in the future, you keep all the books for me, I'll come over every week to pick some" Wang Qiang was also happy to see that the business was negotiated. Wang Qiang knows that business can only last if both parties are profitable.
Wang Qiang gave his thirty yuan to Liu Hongwei and flipped through the pile of old books. He mainly looked for those fiction books, and found a total of five or six hundred, a total of three hundred catties.
It should cost more than forty yuan to buy all these books, and Wang Qiang is hesitating whether to take only a part.
"Otherwise, you take all these books away, and make up for the missing money next time" Liu Hongwei knew that Wang Qiang should not have so much money, so he said generously.
"Thank you, uncle" Wang Qiang was struggling with this matter, and hurriedly said gratefully.
Wang Qiang asked Liu Hongwei to help push all the books to Liu Xiaolong's house, and Liu Xiaolong's house was also on the same line as Wang Qiang's house, not far away, and next door was the town's high school.
After arriving at Liu Xiaolong's house, Wang Qiang made a sign out of wooden boards, which said "Rent Books and Sell Books" and hung them outside, and all the books were made of wooden boards to make a simple bookshelf and put them on the ground.
Wang Qiang and Liu Xiaolong both have to go to school, so they open at half past five in the afternoon and close at nine o'clock every afternoon. Since the bookstore is next to the high school, business has been particularly good after opening. The deposit for each book is a dollar, and the rent is a dime a day. A month later, Wang Qiang had 300 yuan in his hand for the deposit alone, not only repaid Liu Hongwei's money, but also the extra money, and later Wang Qiang did a recharge business, and deducted from the money given after reading the book, so half a year later, Wang Qiang's library was overcrowded every time after school, and he could earn more than 1,000 a month, more than his parents'.
