Chapter 62: A Shrewd Girl
After entering the tobacco and alcohol recycling store, Reiko couldn't help but glance inside the store.
Fortunately, only the older man named "Brother Liang" was sitting in the store, and the young man he had driven away earlier did not come back.
At this moment, two customers probably just bought cigarettes, and while discussing "how to ask Director Huang out tomorrow", they left the shop.
As soon as the two customers left, only Brother Liang and Reiko were left in the store.
Well, now I can bargain with him!
Reiko had her own idea in her heart.
"Come, look, I'm all authentic 'Moutai' wine and 'Chinese' cigarettes."
Reiko waited for the two guests to walk away, then handed the cigarettes and alcohol in her hand to the counter, and pointed to Brother Liang to the cigarettes and alcohol she brought.
Brother Liang picked up "Moutai" and looked carefully up and down, left and right for a while, and nodded;
Then he picked up the "Chinese" cigarette again, looked at it on all sides, and pinched it horizontally and vertically.
After inspecting the goods, he smiled happily and said to Reiko:
"Yes, it's all genuine. It seems that your father must be a big leader, right? ”
After saying that, I wanted to put the cigarettes and alcohol on the counter.
"Oh, wait! Don't you talk nonsense, okay? ”
Reiko immediately reached out and pressed the cigarettes and alcohol on the counter, and said with a straight face,
"What my dad is, don't talk nonsense! Let me tell you, I went to the tobacco and liquor store just now to see, the lowest price of 'Moutai' liquor is 1,351 bottles, and the price of 'Zhonghua' cigarettes is 721, the difference you make is too big, right? ”
"Oh, good. It seems that you are still a very scheming girl! You say, you went to the tobacco and liquor store just now to check the price? That's right. Let me ask you, is it the 'Hongfa' tobacco and liquor store you just saw? ”
Brother Liang asked Reiko nonchalantly.
Seeing her nodding, Brother Liang smiled slightly and said:
"Let me tell you, the tobacco and alcohol I collect often change hands and sell to them. Do you think I'm making too much money? You see, ha,"
Brother Liang wrenched his fingers and said:
"I'll tell you, and you'll know right away. I'll get 800 yuan a bottle from you and bring in 'Moutai' wine." For the next family, it can only be a bottle of 1,000 yuan. They're going to make the difference, too!
What about cigarettes? I took it from you, it was five hundred yuan a piece, and if I sent it to the next family, it could only be six hundred yuan a piece, and they would earn one hundred and two.
In this way, I can only earn 400 for your two bottles of Moutai, right? What about two cigarettes, I can only make two hundred, right? Earn you a total of 600 yuan in difference. Remember, it's a difference of 600 yuan! ”
Brother Liang stretched out his right hand with special emphasis, and used his thumb and little finger to draw a "six" figure.
"Well, I'll give you the cost.
My storefront rents 3,500 a month; The tax is fixed and taxed, one thousand per month; I hired two other clerks, each with a monthly salary of 3,000, and the total was 6,000; My own salary is five thousand, isn't it?
Do the math, how much does it add up? Three thousand five, one thousand, six thousand, five thousand, fifteen thousand. These expenses alone are fifteen and fifteen!
And what about the monthly sanitation bill? What about security fees? And what about the fee for those big caps? Seventy-seven-eighty-eight is calculated, and the monthly cost is at least 20,000 yuan!
But do you know how much business I've only done this month?
From yesterday to today, I have only received a total of three bottles of 'Moutai', one bottle of 'Wuliangye' and four 'Zhonghua' cigarettes.
Doing business like this, I can't even drink the northwest wind! Not to mention that I have to support my family! I have five or six people in my family to support. You say, I made a difference of six hundred dollars from you, did I earn more or less? ”
"Then, you can also ask the next family more! Also, my two bottles of 'Moutai' wine are not available in that store, and the price must be more than 1,350! I don't care, if you give me a bottle for 800 yuan, I won't sell it! ”
After Reiko finished speaking, she reached out to get the cigarettes and alcohol on the counter, pretending to be about to leave.
"Hey, don't worry, don't worry!"
Brother Liang said unhurriedly:
"It can be seen that this is the first time you have done this kind of business. As for me, business has not been good in the past two days. In this way, let's both give way, you add these cigarettes and alcohol to one piece, and I'll add another hundred to you, that's interesting enough, right? ”
Add another hundred?
With just a few words of counteroffer, you can add another hundred yuan to your pocket!
Reiko was secretly happy in her heart, but she didn't show it.
She still tightened her face very tightly, and resolutely stretched out two fingers and said:
"It's not okay to add a hundred, at least add two hundred!"
"One hundred and fifteen!"
Brother Liang saw Reiko's resolute attitude and had to make concessions again.
"Two hundred!"
Reiko didn't listen to him, and continued to stretch out her two fingers and say resolutely.
"One hundred and sixteen, one more point!"
Brother Liang raised his left index finger to represent an integer of one hundred; The right hand still makes a gesture of six, which means the number of zeros of sixty.
"Two hundred! One less point I won't sell! ”
Reiko felt that the other party wanted to make this deal, and at the same time, she remembered a line in the drama "Shajiabang", "The final victory often comes from the last effort to hold on a little longer"!
So she made the final "effort".
"Hey, I've never seen you do this business, can you still bite the end at your fixed price? It seems that your business will not be able to do it! ”
Brother Liang shook his head helplessly, and retreated to the back stool while shaking his head.
"Do you want it? If you don't want me, I'll go! ”
Reiko saw him sit down on the stool behind him, so she reached for the cigarettes and alcohol on the counter.
"Well, forget it! Even if I do it for nothing today, make a deal! ”
Brother Liang saw that Reiko was indeed leaving, so he had to sigh softly, returned to Reiko from the back stool, put the cigarettes and alcohol on the counter into the counter, and then took out a large handful of banknotes from the drawer, and lit it up with a "bang, bang, bang".
Okay——!
It's a deal!
If you don't bargain with him today, if you don't have the "last effort to hold on a little longer" just now, wouldn't there be no penny for the 200 yuan?
Reiko tried her best to hide her joy, and when Brother Liang counted the bills and delivered them to her, she stood in front of the counter and counted them again.
Haha, the banknotes are counted, and sure enough, there are 200 yuan more than the price negotiated before!
Two hundred!
To the people in the city, these two hundred dollars may not be nothing.
However, for Reiko's hometown, it's a lot of money!
Reiko's heart blossomed.
She carefully put away and hid the 2,800 yuan, and then happily went to Wal-Mart.
In fact, this little nanny didn't know that the older man, Brother Liang, was happier than her at the moment!
What Reiko said earlier was right, the two bottles of "Moutai" wine she brought just now were not available in the "Hongfa" tobacco and liquor * store, so naturally there was no price marking.
But Brother Liang knows very well that the two bottles of "Moutai" wine have vintages, and if the retail price is set, each bottle will be at least more than 1,008!
Brother Liang bullied Lingzi for not understanding the market, so he recounted his difficulties and "pitiful" in front of her.
In fact, Brother Liang earns much more money than Reiko!
Alas, what does it mean to be interlaced like a mountain?
Even the business of buying tobacco and alcohol, if you don't understand, it's like the next mountain!
Besides, Reiko, when she left the store after selling tobacco and alcohol, she hurried to the Wal-Mart supermarket while touching the 2,800 yuan in cash she had just arrived.
Reiko is a person who is used to living a poor life.
She knew that the holiday was coming soon. Whenever the holiday season comes, Walmart will launch a lot of special items for promotion.
After entering Walmart, Reiko first went to the special counter and went around.
At the special price counter, she saw a batch of half-price cow pants with a very good texture, fifty yuan a piece.
So, she chose two small cow pants and put them in the trolley.
Then, she chose two discounted white shirts, thirty yuan each, and put them in the trolley.
Then, Reiko went to the stationery counter and chose a double-shoulder backpack.
These are all holiday gifts for my brother.
After that, Reiko deliberately transferred to the women's clothing goods department, chose a skirt for her sister, and bought two light-flowered blouses.
After coming down, Reiko came to the nutrition counter and bought two boxes of Brain Platinum and a box of bird's nest for her mother.
In the end, she came to the tobacco and alcohol counter and bought two "cloud cigarettes" for her father, and two bottles of Beijing "Erguotou" with beautiful packaging boxes.
When you go to the cashier to check out, you can type out the charge slip and see:
Haha, it's only more than 870 yuan in total!
Reiko smiled happily!
Buying so many things at once is a great way to go home!
And what about banknotes?
Not even one-third of the income from the sale of "Moutai" liquor and "Zhonghua" cigarettes just now was used.
The deposit on the bank card is even more unspent.
It's so much fun!
On the way back to Wang's house, Lingzi considered that after returning to Xiushui County, Jiangxi Province tomorrow, it would cost a lot of fees to use the bank card of the provincial capital to withdraw money from her hometown, which would not be cost-effective.
So, when she passed by a CCB, she entered the self-service banking counter, entered her father's CCB card number in Xiushui on the ATM, and transferred 10,000 yuan first.
After returning to the master's house, Reiko quickly put the goods she had just bought and the girl's supplies that she would use every day after returning home into the tugboat suitcase one by one in an orderly manner.
