Chapter 016: Restocked Again
Jiang Wu found the decoration team, and after reading it, the small package foreman quoted 450 contractor materials, Lin Yi agreed, and Lin Yi didn't have to worry about the rest of the things.
Waited another two days.
The self-employed business license came down, three or four days faster than expected, and when Lin Yi went to get the license, he secretly stuffed two packs of cigarettes for Section Chief Liu.
The Industrial and Commercial Bureau is the main management unit of Hanzheng Street, and it is certainly not wrong to establish a good relationship.
Lin Yi looked at the system.
There are now more than 12,000 in the wallet, and he spent 10,000 yuan to improve his physical fitness before, and another 4,000 yuan to buy a house and decorate.
Fortunately, during this time, Li Xiangqian and Xiao Wu's business of selling watches is getting better and better, they can earn one or two thousand a day, and then a few people joined, although the first few days were not good, but these days, with the opening of sales, those guys can sell three or five watches per person every day.
Chen Ding also got started quickly, and now he can sell a few pieces a day, and Lin Yi's wallet has gradually swelled up in the past few days.
The fastest seller is still electronic watches, in the Lin Jiayuan market he grabbed more than 800 watches, and now more than 300 have been sold, and there are still about 500 left in his hand.
The quartz watch was also good, selling for thirty or forty pieces.
Mechanical watches are much less, in the final analysis, it is determined by the price factor, cheap and good, and spending a little money to do big things is people's highest pursuit.
Hanzheng Street is still lively.
The merchants here all saw the middle set of stores being renovated, and knew that there would definitely be another sale, although they didn't see the boss, but they could also see that the boss was ready to do a big job.
At night
Lin Yi and Jiang Wu Li went forward to eat.
"Tomorrow I'm going to go out to buy goods, this time I'm going to go far, I'm going to go to Shencheng to see, that's the window of reform and opening up, if I have the opportunity I want to see what's outside the window, this time the road is also far, the train will take three days, I estimate that it will take about half a month to come back."
"These things at home, more than 500 electronic watches, as well as quartz watches and mechanical watches, have accounts, you can remember how much they are sold, and there are a few tape recorders and a few black and white TVs at home, and you can sell them if you want them."
Jiang Wu and Li Xiangqian couldn't help but nod as they listened.
"Jiang Wu is keeping an eye on the façade decoration, and we will open when I come back."
"Brother Yi, what are we selling?" Jiang Wu asked.
"It depends on the situation, what sells what sells."
......
Lin Yi got on the train.
This time, he didn't squeeze the hard seat again, but asked someone to find a relationship in advance to buy a sleeper ticket, if the hard seat was for three days and three nights, it is estimated that it can be folded to the waist of the deep city.
There are three floors of hard sleeper bunks, six people in one carriage, and Lin Yi's ticket is the top, which is a good position, so he threw his backpack on it.
On the train, it's like a small society, and people next to each other will talk and ask where to go and what to do when they go out.
A middle-aged man chatted with Lin Yi, Lin Yi smiled and said that when he went to Shencheng, a fellow villager wrote to him to work over there, and the middle-aged man said with a well-informed look, "Shencheng is now being built everywhere, and there are many people, which is definitely much better than farming at home." ”
Lin Yi smiled a little innocently.
The journey is long,
Fortunately, Lin Yi has improved his physique, otherwise he would have had back pain, and in the past three days, in addition to eating and going to the toilet, Lin Yi has been reading books most of the time.
He brought a Water Margin with him and passed the time on the way.
In later generations, he watched the Water Margin TV series, and also watched the Water Margin criticized by hundreds of forums, and only after reading the original book did he find that the original book is far more fantasy than the TV series, such as Gongsun Sheng, who has a mysterious Taoist technique, which can call the wind and rain and drive the fog and clouds.
In fact,
The four famous books are all tinged with fairy dreams.
Needless to say, Journey to the West has 36 stars of Tiangang and 72 stars of the Earth in the Water Margin, and there are Taoist techniques to call the wind and rain.
The Dream of Red Mansions has a red pearl grass and a Shenying waiter, and a police illusion fairy girl.
The Three Kingdoms also have Zuo Ci, Yu Ji, Nanhua Old Immortal, Zixu Venerable and other immortals, and the three brothers Zhang Jiao can also do Taoism.
......
The train arrives at Guangzhou Railway Station.
Lin Yi got out of the car with his bag, now that he has just reformed and opened up, Shencheng has been established as a special zone, not everyone can enter, and if you want to go over, you need to have a letter of introduction and a pass, which Lin Yi does not have.
In fact, Lin Yi's destination is not the deep city.
He said to the outside world that Shencheng was just a pretext, and his real destination was Nansha, which was not the Nansha Islands, but Nansha County, that is, the Nansha District in later generations.
Panyu and Nansha are the two areas where smuggling is most rampant, and a large market has been formed here, and according to later reports, the residents of the two places are engaged in smuggling in the thousands, and there are hundreds of ships doing smuggling business every day, and the value of goods exceeds 2 million.
It's every day.
It can be seen that the market is huge.
Nansha is located at the mouth of the Pearl River, has a natural geographical advantage, a few decades ago from Hong Kong to the inland transport of goods, is the channel, now this road has become a golden waterway for smugglers.
In these cases,
Lin Yi only has a general understanding, but he doesn't know how to find the past.
He was not in a hurry,
After two circles on the streets of Nansha County, I finally stayed in a private hotel, "Boss, open a room." ”
"Shared or private room?" The boss asked.
"Private room."
The boss took out the key tray and took Lin Yi upstairs, the conditions of the hotel were very simple, a board bed and a table, a kettle was placed on the table, and a table lamp, and nothing else.
The air-conditioned TV that came standard in later generations did not have it.
toilet
Go outside and get on it yourself.
And this is already the best room, one piece two a day.
"Boss, inquire about something." Lin Yi stopped the boss who was going down.
"What's the matter~!"
The boss said in broken Mandarin.
Lin Yi took out a cigarette and handed it over, "Boss, I'm here to buy goods, and I'm not familiar with the road for the first time, can you help me show me the way." ”
As he spoke, he took out a lighter and lit it for the boss.
The boss took a sip, wiped a handful of Mediterranean partial heads, and looked at Lin Yi, he has seen a lot of situations like this when outsiders come to buy goods and can't find the way.
"What do you want to buy?"
"Electronic watches, sunglasses." Lin Yidao.
"I can introduce you to someone from whom you can pick up the goods." Introduce customers to the owner of the goods, and the boss also has a commission.
It's like if you go to a city and ask a taxi driver, which KTV bath is good, there is a high probability that he will pull you to a familiar place.
Lin Yi shook his head.
"I want to go to the island and pick it myself, do you have a way?" Lin Yi didn't want to be a fat sheep, the second-hand goods sold to him must be at a higher price, and the quality may not be good, he wanted to go to the market to buy them himself.
The boss looked at Lin Yi carefully.
The heart said that this young man seems to be quite knowledgeable and knows how to go to the island.
There are countless islands in Nansha, blocked by waterways, providing natural protection for smuggling, and those smuggling ships carrying goods back are basically placed on the islands, and over time these islands form a market.
"It's not easy to take you to the island, and most people don't let you go to the island." The boss shook his head.
"I won't let you work in vain." Lin Yidao.
"Do you have any papers?"
The boss asked suddenly.
"ID, I didn't bring it, by the way, I have a train ticket, can you see it?" Lin Yicai would not be stupid to show the other party any documents, and it was not a legitimate business.
The boss just wanted to prove that Lin Yi was from other places, so he took the train ticket and looked at it, he was from Jiangcheng, and he was relieved.
"100 yuan, pay 50 introduction fees first, I'll say hello to you, find someone to take you to the island, and you're paying the remaining 50." The boss said.
Lin Yi thought for a moment, "Okay." ”
He took out a wad of money from his pocket, about two or three hundred, counted out five large balls and handed them to the boss, who took the money satisfied.
"Take a break and I'll write to you tomorrow."
Lin Yi went downstairs to find a restaurant to have a meal, and he didn't go around, there were no entertainment projects in this era, and the security was also very chaotic, so after eating, he went back to the hotel room to read, and now reading has become his biggest hobby, and he is more diligent than when he was in school.
It's okay in the morning.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, there was a knock on the door.
Lin Yi immediately got up and opened the door, and the boss said after entering the house: "I've contacted you, I will leave tomorrow morning at 4 o'clock, and I will land on the island at 7 o'clock, and the ferry ticket will be 30." ”
Lin Yi nodded in agreement.
continued to read in the hotel, went to bed at more than 8 o'clock in the evening, and Lin Yi woke up at more than two o'clock in the morning, and he found that there was a sound in more than one room in the corridor.
At three o'clock,
The boss came to knock on the door and called someone, not only he followed downstairs, a total of five, several people looked at each other and no one spoke, followed the boss to a small wharf, there was a fishing boat waiting here, there were already six or seven people on board, Lin Yi After they got on the boat, the fishing boat started and sailed out of the wharf.
Four o'clock in the morning is the darkest hour of the day.
There were still stars in the sky.
The fishing boat walked for about two or three hours, the sky was already bright, Lin Yi was not familiar with this place, and he couldn't tell where it was, and finally stopped at the edge of an island.
"Get off the boat and I'll take you there." The boat boss shouted.
The crowd disembarked.
After walking a few miles, I found that I came to a fishing village, the fishing village is not big, only one main street, and some stalls are placed at the door, on which some goods are placed, electronic watches, umbrellas, sunglasses, video recorders, cameras... There's everything.
There are even bicycles and motorcycles at the door.
Chuanlao Avenue: "All the goods placed at the door, it means that there is a family at home, you can casually enter the house and buy with the owner of the goods, but there is a rule, you can't return it if you buy it, you can't pay for the goods and leave, you can't say that you bought it here and that house and ran back to return it." ”
Lin Yi understands,
Whether you can buy cheaper goods depends on your own ability.
"At four o'clock in the afternoon, the boat returns, I look at the time, there are restaurants on the island but there is no hotel, I can't catch the boat and can only sleep on the street."
After the boat boss finished speaking, everyone rushed into the fishing village with large bags and small bags.
Lin Yi walked to a stall with electronic watches, he was most familiar with electronic watches, and planned to compare the prices here and in Yuzhou, and after comparison, he would know whether this place was a pit or not.
He picked up a watch and asked, "Boss, how much does this watch cost?" ”
"10 pieces."
"What about bulk purchases?"
"How much?"
"100 bucks."
"That can bring you down to eight."
Lin Yi now had a bottom in his heart, the things here are indeed cheaper than those in Yuzhou.
