Chapter 173: Who is the Profiteer?
Ding Erchan's eyes lit up, and his face was happy: "You also help me sell?" â
"Well, it's idle anyway, if she relies on this for the time being, we have a lot of time, so what's the point of helping her?"
"Oops~! I've long seen that your heart is the hottest in our bed. Ding Erchan grabbed Cheng Zhichao's arm and buckled a big tall hat. Like Cheng Zhichao, he is a native of the provincial capital, and when he was in middle school, the distance was not too far, but he belonged to two schools. With Cheng Zhichao's help, the speed of shipment will definitely speed up a lot.
But Ding Erchan didn't wait for Cheng Zhichao to be polite, and his face was worried: "Where are you going to help her sell?" I can tell you, the moment I took this thing out of her house, I had already decided, our school, I am the exclusive agent, you want to grab land with me, that's not okay. â
Cheng Zhichao was angry and funny: "Have you watched too many Hong Kong movies?" You can say anything like land grabbing. Where our school is bigger, what kind of territory will I grab with you? He stretched out his finger and pointed at the girl who was surrounding his bed, and said, "In the current situation, are you robbing my territory?" â
Ding Erchan blushed and said embarrassedly: "Let's sleep together for a year, you should also understand that in this room, your bed is still like it." I summoned these girls over, of course, I want to find a place with a better environment to do business with others, right? If you're tired, why don't you go to my bed for a while? â
Cheng Zhichao looked at the sheets on his bed, frowned, declined his kindness, hugged his chest and leaned against the radiator in front of the window, his eyes looked straight at the ceiling, and he couldn't stop thinking about how to help him.
Speaking from his heart, he didn't want to help Ding Erzen, but when he heard Ding Erzen talk about his neighbor, he couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart. He has lived a privileged life since he was a child, except for when he practiced martial arts with Lao Jiang with Zhao Jiyong, he suffered a lot, and basically did not suffer any other hardships. Even the hardships he endured in Lao Jiang were only spiritual and physical, not due to material factors, so that when he was a child, Cheng Zhichao always thought that the lives of ordinary people in the world were similar to him.
It wasn't until I went to college and saw many poor students that I woke up to the fact that in this world, the material enjoyment between people is still very different. For him, a few hundred yuan may be a matter of a pair of shoes, but for those poor students, the money of a pair of shoes is their living expenses for a month or two. Although he is not a compassionate person, whenever he sees those people, he still feels not very comfortable.
As for Fang Xiaochen, what he has done in this regard is even worse, as the so-called inappropriate family does not know the price of firewood and rice, Fang Xiaochen has not yet started a family, and his head does not consider this aspect at all.
Ding Erzen saw him looking at the roof of the house, so he just said that he was thinking of a way, came to him, took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over: "Hey, you haven't figured out where to sell it yet?" Don't worry, smoke a cigarette. â
Cheng Zhichao was stunned for a moment: "When did you learn to smoke?" â
"It's been a long time ago, but the conditions at home are not good, and the cigarettes I smoke are not up to grade, so I've been embarrassed to take them out in front of you. But today is different, you are so loving, if I don't express it, I really don't want to go. â
Cheng Zhichao smiled and took his cigarette, put it under his nose and smelled it, looked at the brand of the cigarette again, and threw it to him casually: "Lao Tzu never smokes cigarettes under fifty yuan, and after I help your neighbor find a market, you can find a way to thank me." â
"I thought about it for a while, the best sales channel is our school, those stinky girls are so stinky and beautiful, and they don't have much money on them, this kind of low-grade goods is just right for them." lowered his voice and said to Cheng Zhichao mysteriously: "Listen to Jiajia, the purchase price of this thing is only one or two yuan a piece, and my buddy is embarrassed to sharpen the knife too quickly, and one will be sold for five yuan, which is both cheap and affordable." â
Cheng Zhichao was confused by him: "Jiajia? Which one is good? â
"Oops, I forgot to tell you, my neighbor's name has a good character in it, I've called her Jiajia since I was a child, I'm used to it."
"Oh." Cheng Zhichao didn't ask what the neighbor's name was, and he thought about several sales channels in his heart, but they were all rejected in the end. Originally, Cheng Zhichao preferred to take things to the night market to sell when he was idle at night. The night markets in the provincial capital are very developed, and almost every district has several night markets of considerable scale, and the early night markets are relatively scattered, and most of them are spontaneously organized by the masses. Later, out of the need for city appearance, the government specially designated several places and concentrated the scattered night markets into several relatively large night markets. ,
Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong are both people who like to join in the fun, especially Yue Jiyong, almost wherever there is excitement, you can see him, the night market has a complete range of things, from clothing to trinkets, basically including all the necessities of life. Here, there is no question of competition for the ZĂ i brand, almost 100% of everything is a copycat. None of this is important, the most important thing is to be lively. Especially in the summer, when the weather is hot, the night market is a good place to enjoy the cool weather.
On the one hand, there is a lot of excitement to join, and on the other hand, you can also feel another kind of vitality of the city. How can Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong let go of such a good place? The most important thing is that the people who go shopping here are basically in the middle and lower classes, and the picture is an affordable, and the things that Ding Erzen brought are suitable for sale in the night market.
In fact, his neighbor does set up a stall in the night market every night, but Cheng Zhichao can't, there is only one reason, when he does other things, he is very easy to give, but when he buys things, he will not bargain. The disadvantage of not being able to bargain is that in addition to being reflected in the fact that you will suffer a loss when buying something, you will definitely not make much money when selling something. Something that can make a profit of three yuan can be sold for five cents at a profit of five cents when it comes to him, and he has to thank the person who bought it.
That group of girls had been picking for a long time before Cheng Zhichao came back. At this time, they basically picked out what they were satisfied with, and they hula came up again, holding the things in their hands and bargaining with Ding Erzen.
"How much does this stuff cost?"
"Five pieces."
"It's okay to sell for five yuan, but this one is so small, if I buy it for five yuan, I will lose money if I compare it with others? Four dollars is not sold. â
"Miss, I don't have a penny profit, I still sell it for others, and I'll give you four yuan, so how can I answer these beauties correctly?"
"But as you can see, the one I chose is obviously smaller than the one they chose, so it's a dollar cheaper."
"Then why did you choose a small one?"
"I like this."
That's right, buying something is the same as finding a partner, only buy the right one, not the expensive one. Five yuan is not expensive, Miss, you have to eat a bowl of noodles outside for five yuan, after a long time, the noodles are digested, and there is nothing left in the stomach. You can wear this thing for as long as you want. Ladies and gentlemen, it's okay, let's not bargain, five yuan a piece, pay the money and take it. â
ââŚâŚâ
ââŚâŚâ
Cheng Zhichao was stunned and watched Ding Erchan, a profiteer, show his tongue and outwit all the women, and he was so impressed that he threw himself to the ground. With his character, as soon as those girls came up, pouted, and begged each other softly, maybe they would follow them. In that case, even if you can make money, I am afraid that the profit will be greatly reduced. In addition to admiration, I made up my mind that I could only be a secondary distributor and resolutely not a terminal. After taking something from Ding Erzen, you must give it to someone else to sell on your behalf.
As soon as the thinking was clear, the next thing was easy to do, and a figure gradually appeared in front of Cheng Zhichao's eyes.
Over there, Ding Erchan was surrounded by all the women and sweated profusely, but he gritted his teeth, five yuan a piece, and the price was not reduced. Those girls had no choice but to scold Ding Erzen's iron for not pulling out a hair, and at the same time took out the money to pay the bill, and then dispersed in twos and threes. It didn't take long for the beauties to disperse, leaving the fragrance behind, Ding Erchan was holding a lot of zero tickets and coins in his hand, his two eyes were shining, he looked like a fan of wealth, and after counting it, he laughed at Cheng Zhichao and said: "I have long known that these girls are stinky and beautiful, and in less than half a day, they sold more than twenty, and made a net profit of sixty or seventy." If you can maintain this sales every day, Lao Tzu will really make a lot of money. â
Cheng Zhichao pursed his lips with disdain: "Look at your little interest, you sold more than twenty of them, and if you earn sixty or seventy, you will be happy to be like this bear, I have never seen the world." â
"Damn, your family is rich? That's a lot, sometimes Jiajia may not be able to sell so much in two or three days. After saying that, he sat down on his bed and counted the money in his hand again.
At this time, there were still six or seven shiny brooches left on the plastic sheet on Cheng Zhichao's bed, Cheng Zhichao picked one up, looked left and right for a long time, and finally squinted one eye, looked at the chest against the sun for a while, and was full of praise: "Don't say it, this thing is quite exquisitely made." â,
"Of course, Jiajia's vision definitely didn't say that the goods purchased were comparable to those sold in jewelry stores."
"Just with this workmanship, the price of five yuan is a bit low, and there is still room for appreciation, do you estimate, how much more can it rise?"
Ding Erchan didn't answer, just because the other boys in the same bedroom next to him had already said with disdain: "Chao'er, I found that you are darker than Lao Ding, and we think this thing is expensive enough for him to sell it for five yuan, so you have to add a little more." â
"It's worth the money, it's nothing you can do." Cheng Zhichao said with a smile, "Erdan, you estimate the price." â
Ding Erchan stopped counting the money, blinked his eyes and said, "I can't estimate, how much do you think you can sell if you want to sell it?" â
Cheng Zhichao threw the brooch in his hand at him casually: "Is this work worth eight hundred yuan?" â
"I'm cÄo, are you crazy?" Ding Erchan was so frightened by Cheng Zhichao's words that his hands trembled, and he almost didn't throw the change in his hand to the ground, so he stood up and glanced at his bedmates who were also staring at each other, "You want to sell this thing for eight hundred yuan a piece?" â
Cheng Zhichao put away the things on the bed, carefully put them on the table, reached out and dusted them on the bed a few times, and said unhurriedly: "No way, it won't open for three years, and it will be open for three years. Even if you can't get out of the way with eight hundred yuan, three or five hundred yuan should be no problem. â
"My God, if you can really sell this thing for 800 yuan, not only Jiajiale will go crazy, but even I will go crazy."
"She's crazy and understandable, why are you crazy?"
"I'm crazy with you. Anyway, it's either you're crazy or I'm crazy. â
"Shall we try it then?"
"I'd like to see how you sell this thing for eight hundred dollars." Ding Erchan said with a sneer.
"Okay, wait, I'll make a call." Cheng Zhichao smiled and took out the phone, and dialed Liu Xin's phone without thinking. He is not very sensitive to phone numbers and generally relies on the phone book in his phone. But there are a few phone numbers that are familiar to me, in addition to their own phones, Fang Xiaochen and Zhao Jiyong and others, I remember Liu Xin's phone number the most.
After the phone was dialed, it took a lot of time before I heard Liu Xin's slightly panicked voice coming, and the girl seemed to have deliberately lowered her voice, for fear that others would hear it. I don't know if it's because of excessive nervousness, but it sounds like my voice is trembling: "Hey, what are you looking for me?" â
Cheng Zhichao's heart also trembled, and it was the first time he had spoken to Liu Xin alone since that night. After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he took another deep breath and asked, "Xiaochen is not there?" â
ââŚâŚ No, you're looking for her? Liu Xin's voice was obviously a lot of disappointment, and she said faintly: "She is busy in her office, saying that the furnishings in the office are too monotonous, and she wants to plant a few pots of flowers." I'll help you call her. â
"Not really, it's the same with you."
The disappointment in Liu Xin's tone disappeared, and he was much brighter: "It turns out that I don't miss my daughter-in-law, but I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what are you looking for us?" â
"Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask how your store is doing and when will it open?"
"It's basically about the same, and it should be able to open on time next week, and I will definitely invite you when the time comes, so you can put your heart back in your stomach."
"My heart has always been in my stomach, hehe, you do things, I don't worry."
"Flamboyant, I said young master, if there is nothing to do, I will hang up first, a hard-working person like us can't compare with you. As soon as you go back to school, you are the pride of the sky, but we still have to work hard for life. â
Cheng Zhichao knew that she could do it, and she would definitely hang up the phone immediately when she hung up the phone, but without a word of nonsense, he hurriedly shouted: "Something, something." â
Liu Xingge smiled and said, "It's rare that your Young Master Cheng has something to find me?" Say, what's the trouble? "I've known Cheng Zhichao for so long, and Liu Xin has long been used to being Cheng Zhichao's fire captain. As long as Cheng Zhichao calls her, Bacheng will encounter difficult things, and it is inconvenient for Fang Xiaochen to come forward, which is almost a law.
