Chapter 35 Dry Goods Store
Zhao Changfeng had to admit that his mother had an extraordinary talent in trading. The reason why I didn't find the advantage of my mother in the past was because the long-term monotonous and repetitive factory life buried my mother's talent. This batch of black fungus, according to Lin Dongfeng's estimate, is fifteen yuan a catty, and it would be good if it could be sold out in seven or eight days. But my mother marked a price of 20 yuan a catty, and it was sold out within three days. It seems that once a housewife bursts out with enthusiasm, her work efficiency is far beyond that of ordinary people.
After the sale, my mother and father sat on the bed with the thick stack of bills, and counted them countless times, and they couldn't stop talking. In the end, his father counted out 1,000 yuan and handed it to Zhao Changfeng, asking him to rush to Zhongzhou tomorrow and return the money to Lin Dongfeng himself.
Zhao Changfeng said that there are only four days left before the Chinese New Year, so don't run back and forth. Or send the money to Lin Dongfeng when he goes back to school in Zhongzhou City, or go to the post office now to remit the money to Lin Dongfeng.
My mother didn't approve of waiting until school started to pay back, because it would be too late. However, the remittance to Lin Dongfeng's mother through the post office agreed, the remittance was very convenient, the handling fee was not high, and the most important thing was that it was safe, so that Zhao Changfeng's mother was still a little uneasy about taking the car with a thousand yuan in cash.
His father disagreed, his reason was to send money through the post office, which would take about seven or eight days to arrive, and the New Year would be four days later, and the post office would be on holiday at that time, and the post office would come out for the New Year, that is to say, Lin Dongfeng would not receive this thousand yuan until after the New Year.
"Changfeng, the debt is not more than a year, do you understand? However, how much money you owe to others, it is best to pay it back before the Chinese New Year! My father insisted categorically.
It was rare for her mother not to disagree with her father, she was silent for a long time, and said to Zhao Changfeng: "Son, what your father said is right. Or you catch an early train to Zhongzhou tomorrow and come back in the afternoon. ”
Although Zhao Changfeng didn't understand the truth that debts are not over the years, he saw that his father insisted so much, and his mother said the same, so he agreed. Anyway, he has nothing to do if he stays at home, and he can go to Zhongzhou.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Zhao Changfeng took the train to Zhongzhou, and at nine o'clock, he arrived at Lin Xinping's house.
Lin Dongfeng was very surprised that Zhao Changfeng had sold out a hundred catties of black fungus so quickly, especially when he heard that the black fungus was still sold for a high price of twenty yuan per catty. Zhao Changfeng was so powerful in business for the first time, could it be said that he was the legendary genius of doing business?
Zhao Changfeng naturally felt embarrassed, and hurriedly told Lin Dongfeng the truth. Hearing that Zhao Changfeng's parents went to the bazaar to sell it, Lin Dongfeng felt relieved, adults have much more social experience than students, and it is not surprising to sell such results. But Lin Dongfeng had another question in his heart, that is, didn't Zhao Changfeng's parents go to work? How do you have time to go to the market and sell fungus?
Only then did Zhao Changfeng tell Lin Dongfeng that Red Star Machinery City was bankrupt and his parents had lost their jobs. Only then did Lin Dongfeng know about Zhao Changfeng's family situation, and he felt something shocked in his heart. Before this, Lin Dongfeng also asked Zhao Changfeng about his family situation, but every time Zhao Changfeng was vague and unwilling to elaborate. Now Lin Dongfeng knows why, it turns out that Zhao Changfeng's family situation is so poor, so he doesn't want him to know. In addition, Lin Dongfeng also knew that the reason why Zhao Changfeng asked to wholesale something from him to sell back was not to exercise himself, but to make some money to supplement his family.
Knowing this, Lin Dongfeng had an idea in his heart to help Zhao Changfeng's family. What made Lin Dongfeng have this idea was not only because Zhao Changfeng had donated blood to his father Lin Mantang, but also because he pitied Zhao Changfeng's family difficulties, but more importantly, because Zhao Changfeng came over in time to return the thousand yuan. The most important thing for people who do business is credibility. Originally, Lin Dongfeng and Zhao Changfeng's agreement was to repay the payment after the New Year, but Zhao Changfeng did not delay at all after selling the goods, and immediately rushed to Zhongzhou to repay the money, which made Lin Dongfeng feel that Zhao Changfeng felt that he was a business partner who could cooperate for a long time, although Zhao Changfeng still needed to rely on his help.
"Changfeng, uncle is discussing something with you, do you think it's okay?"
"Uncle Lin, what's the matter, you say, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it." Zhao Changfeng was very grateful to Lin Dongfeng in his heart, and he was naturally willing to do something for Lin Dongfeng at this time.
"Hehe, Changfeng, it's not for you to do anything for me." Lin Dongfeng said with a smile, "Aren't your parents resting at home now?" Why not start a small business? It can be seen from the sale of black fungus this time that they have a great talent for trading. ”
Zhao Changfeng's eyes lit up, he had a vague idea in his mind for the past two days, but it didn't take shape, at this time, listening to Lin Dongfeng, his heart suddenly brightened.
"Uncle Lin, I have the same thoughts. But one problem is that I don't know what business to let them do, and another problem is that I don't have any savings at home, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to come up with so much money to do business. ”
Lin Dongfeng smiled: "These two questions are very simple. What kind of business do you do? Changfeng, don't you understand it now? I sell Russian and Northeast products. Let your parents rent a fixed stall in the bazaar, sell some black fungus, dried mushrooms, daylily, bracken, pine nuts and other local products, the market must be very good. As for the cost, it doesn't cost much, just pay a booth fee. At the beginning, I could send the goods over to Heilongjiang first, and then return the payment to me after they sold the goods. After doing it for a while, your parents have some capital in their hands, and then consider other ways to cooperate. ”
"Great!" Zhao Changfeng said: "Uncle Lin, thank you so much! I'll go back and discuss with my parents, and if they agree, let them rent a fixed stall in the bazaar, specializing in selling Russian and Heilongjiang dry goods. ”
At that moment, Zhao Changfeng was about to rush back to discuss with his parents. Seeing that Zhao Changfeng was like an arrow, Lin Dongfeng did not stop him, he asked Lin Xinping to send Zhao Changfeng to the train station.
On the way to the train station, Zhao Changfeng's mind was immersed in joy. If you can really open a stall selling dry goods as Uncle Lin said, even if the business can't be as hot as making a thousand yuan in three days at this time of the Chinese New Year, it is always possible to make a thousand yuan a month, right? In this way, the income of parents will be doubled or two compared to going to work, and they can study with peace of mind, and they no longer have to worry about living expenses.
Zhao Changfeng was completely immersed in his own world along the way, and couldn't help but ignore Lin Xinping. In Lin Xinping's opinion, Zhao Changfeng walked by himself along the way, and he didn't even have the mood to look at her and say a word to her, which was simply too hateful. Isn't it just a little blood for grandpa? Is it necessary to pull like this? Hmph, stinky boy, am I so rare to accompany you? If it weren't for Dad insisting that I send you, I wouldn't be too lazy to take care of you!
