Chapter 118 is all about the lack of heart
Unconsciously, Qin Bai's purpose for this business has become different, he wants to ensure success, but more importantly, he wants to find out the market of matches. Therefore, in the ensuing confrontation, he relaxed the number to 300 boxes, but he refused to give in to the price, just to find out the bottom line, and even constantly challenged Cui Xinxiao's patience limit.
However, at this time, Qin Bai's heart was weak, and in fact, Cui Xinxiao was even more weak-hearted. Seeing that the negotiations had reached an impasse, Qin Bai was ready to make a final effort: "Master Cui, you can inquire casually in this Jingjiazhuang, this match is not easy to make, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there are thousands of people working in the workshop." I really can't let it in terms of price, in fact, it is Cui Ye, you, who are the first batch to buy matches. Everyone else is priced at five taels and five dollars, you are five taels, am I not sincere here? ”
"Master Qin, I have already promised to give four taels and two dollars, but you still don't give anything? Is this really ......? Let's all say it's an old friend, and this time the amount is so big, are you really ready not to give any discounts? ”
Seeing that the bargaining time had dragged on for too long, there was still a black-toothed male in the house. There are priorities, and the discounted things can be done at any time. Qin Bai was going to send Hei Yaxiong back first, and after he came back, he would slowly fight a protracted battle with Cui Xinxiao.
Picking up the teacup, Qin Bai smiled and said, "That's it, Master Cui." If you're tired from your journey, find a place to rest. At night, you will receive the wind in Mengxian Residence, a glass of wine, please be sure to enjoy the light? ”
But as soon as these words entered Cui Xinxiao's ears, he immediately couldn't sit still. In an instant, he suddenly sobered up in his mind, he was really greedy for small things, and he wanted to slap himself a few times on the spot.
This time, the source number set 1,000 boxes, and the agreed price was 10 taels per box. In Linqingzhou, there are five or six big businesses of the same level, and there are more than a dozen of them, and the business routes are in all directions, basically there is no overlap, that is to say, even if each one only needs 1,000 boxes, Cui Xinxiao needs to run more than 20 times in a circle.
This account can be calculated, Jingjiazhuang to Linqing only six or seven days of water, the difference in price per box is five taels, 1,000 boxes is 5,000 taels. It doesn't take a month to run back and forth twice, and it's easy to get 10,000 taels of silver. And 10,000 taels of silver, there is an adjective in this era called waist wrapping Wanguan, which is almost the same as the meaning of modern billionaires. This is not at all what Cui Xinxiao could imagine before.
Don't think that all businessmen in this era make a lot of money. A small businessman like Cui Xinxiao only earns a few hundred taels by running back and forth three or four times a year on a fixed business route. If it can exceed 1,000 taels in any year, it will be like winning the jackpot. For a maritime merchant like the Xia family, a merchant ship may earn 30,000 or 40,000 taels for a round trip, but the distance is far away, and it can only run twice a year, so 100,000 taels will definitely not be available. The same is true of the trade routes outside the Saiwai, which are long and risky, and cannot be run several times a year.
And now Cui Xinxiao, theoretically, can run twenty or thirty times a year, this waterway is almost risk-free, and it is easily more than 100,000 taels? Of course, this is theoretical, but who says that you can only have 1,000 cases per trip? If 3000 boxes per trip? 5000 cases? Or even 10,000 boxes? Cui Xinxiao no longer dared to imagine this huge number. There is no doubt that there is a mountain of gold in front of him!
Cui Xinxiao remembered Qin Bai's words again, thousands of people are needed to produce matches? There is no way to lie about this, it is easy to find out in Jingjiazhuang. Then the labor cost alone is quite high, not to mention that there are other costs, perhaps...... Five taels is really the price of the throat.
Really speaking, it's true that I'm too dark-hearted. Just change hands in ten days, and you can earn five taels per box. And the young man surnamed Qin in front of him sold for only five taels. If that is the case, why should we care about the pennies or taels of silver? Now the keys – one is to be fast! One is to monopolize!
If someone else discovers this business opportunity, although you can still do it, you will definitely not have much money left. So take this opportunity to swallow all the goods in one gulp. Aren't you only willing to take out 300 boxes? Surely the yield is not very high, that's good, if the matches are all pinched in their own hands, isn't it just their own pricing?
Thinking of this, Cui Xinxiao hurriedly raised his hand to stop: "Slow, Master Qin!" Forget it, five taels is five taels, but you must guarantee 1000 boxes. And the amount of each time in the future must not be less, to ensure that I buy and sell here. ”
The sudden change in painting style made Qin Bai stunned. Then he smiled: "I only have 350 boxes in stock here, and the rest will be prepared for a month." What do you think ......? ”
"Give it to me now. The rest will be given to you for a maximum of seven days. ”
"Cui Ye! But I really don't have time to do it here? ”
"Then relax, how about ten days?"
"Half a month! I promise to prepare it for you in half a month! ”
“……”
When he returned to the back room, Qin Bai's footsteps were windy. After doing this big business, I feel that my waist is much thicker. After meeting Hei Yaxiong again, Qin Bai said, "Master Xiong! It's 50 out of 3, a fixed price. If you want to, I'll give the goods now, and if I don't want to, I'll sell it slowly. ”
"Bai Er, didn't you say it, it's fifty percent, and it's not good to be tall!"
Now Qin Bai has money in his hands and is not panicked. Since this is the case, there is no need to talk nonsense, he smiled and picked up the tea.
Hei Yaxiong was stunned for a moment, and scolded in his heart: "You still want to play with Lao Tzu and indulge in it? He didn't talk nonsense, he stood up and said goodbye, "Second Brother Bai, listen to my brother's advice, the opportunity is rare, and there will be no such cheap thing in the future." ”
However, Qin Bai still had a resolute expression, and Hei Yaxiong was helpless, so he could only say goodbye. He couldn't help but feel angry in his heart: "! Next time, it's time for you to beg grandpa and me. At most, I'll give you four out of five, no! At most, it's forty percent! ……”
……
Cui Xinxiao came and went in a hurry. I took the 350 boxes first, and agreed to pick up the remaining 650 boxes after half a month. Cui Xinxiao will definitely not make a noise, for fear of attracting the attention of others. Now it's a trip that makes a lot of money. And Qin Bai is also a secret from the outside world, his wealth is not exposed, and he strictly abides by the purpose of obscene development.
Even the amount given to Cui Xinxiao is quite conservative, at most one-third of the existing output, so that the outside world will not guess his true output, and Cui Xinxiao will not control his own sales alone. Willing to eat excess inventory, because Qin Bai already has confidence, opening up the situation is nothing more than a matter of time or time.
However, behind the scenes, a rumor suddenly appeared in Jingjiazhuang. And with the help of some well-intentioned people, this rumor has become more and more violent: "Have you heard? Bai Er of the East Second Square has no turnover, and he is about to go bankrupt! ”
