Chapter 040: The lighter is on fire again

Street Office.

Director Chen's Office,

"I heard that Hanzheng Street counted your kid's business is doing well, it's only been a few months, I'm very pleased." Director Chen said with a smile.

"It's not Director Chen's support at the beginning." Lin Yizui said obediently.

"Why are you here today?"

"One is to come to see you, and the second is that I heard that there is a store on Hanzheng Street opposite my store, which is run by the street, let me ask."

Director Chen nodded Lin Yi.

"Look at me as a fake, look at the store as real."

Lin Yi laughed.

"There is indeed a suite over there, a few years ago, all businesses were stopped, and some people were timid, so they sold the business and the house to the collective, what, do you want to, do you want to rent or buy?" Director Chen briefly introduced the situation and asked.

"You can rent it, you can buy it." Lin Yidao.

"If you rent it, it's easy to say, I'll write you a note, you go to the office to report it, and I can give it to you today, if you buy it, it's collective property, and it needs to be discussed at the meeting, I'm afraid it will take a few days, and it may not be successful."

What Director Chen said is indeed a normal process, although he is the chief director, he has no right to decide on his own whether to keep the collective property.

"Then I'll rent it first, and then you will discuss whether to sell it at the meeting, and if you want to sell it, I will buy it." Lin Yi's idea is very simple, he can rent it and use it, and buy it if he can buy it.

Don't force it.

Director Chen wrote a note, "Okay, take this note to the office." ”

Lin Yi smiled and took the thank-you farewell.

I went to the office and went through a lease procedure, three hundred a year.

Afternoon

Li Xiangqian Jiang Wu took a few people, opened the new store and cleaned it up, the situation of the house here is similar to Lin Yi's current store, there are also about 300 square meters, a two-story building, the only difference is that it is on the south side of the street.

The two houses are only a few dozen meters apart, and you can see them when you look up.

In the future, it will be convenient to take care of both ends.

Lin Yi just asked them to clean up simply, and did not decorate, first, it was too late, and second, it was mainly a warehouse here, and it was not inhabited, so there was no need to clean up too well.

At night

Lin Yi went to Director Chen's house again.

Naturally, this time it will not be empty-handed.

"Director Chen, thank you for cultivating me, isn't this New Year's Day, bring some local products for you to taste."

Cigarettes, alcohol, snacks, bacon.

It's a souvenir,

The next day,

The sub-district office held a working meeting, at which the matter of the façade of Hanzheng Street was discussed, and Director Chen expressed his opinion:

"That house has been idle for more than ten years, and many places are leaking rain and wind, and they need to be repaired, otherwise there will be a danger of collapse, so I asked the comrades in the office to take someone to take a look, and the maintenance cost is at least 500 yuan."

"There is another way to deal with it, that is, to sell the house, a few days ago, a merchant on Hanzheng Street found the street office, asked if they could buy the house, I think it can be disposed of, one is that there are already documents on it, let us dispose of idle assets, the second is to let the house play a role, to avoid waste of resources, the third is to support commercial construction, kill three birds with one stone."

The end result is naturally passed.

Lin Yi got the second façade house at a price of 3,002, and the 300 of the rented house was directly counted.

......

On the day that Lin Yi bought the new façade, a large truck pulled a car of lighters to Hanzheng Street.

Jiang Wuli and Li Xiangqian received a notice in advance, and when the truck came, they hurriedly moved the goods down, and all these lighters were placed on the new façade.

No. 04596, 1100, unit price 0.52 yuan.

No. 43668, 1600, unit price 0.38 yuan.

No. 74566, 3600 pieces, unit price 0.22 yuan.

No. 89242, 500, unit price 0.85 yuan.

......

Lighters all have model codes, and the model and quantity and unit price are recorded on the manifest, and Li Xiangqian checks the quantity one by one.

Lin Yi and Director Wang drank tea on the second floor.

Li Xiangqian checked all of them and went upstairs with the list, "Brother Yi, the goods have been unloaded, and they have all been checked, there are a total of 36 kinds of lighters, the number is 44,600, and the total price is 15,685." ”

Lin Yi took the list and glanced at it, quickly mentally calculated, on average, a lighter was less than 3 cents, and looked at Director Wang, "Director Wang, the quantity and amount are okay, right?" ”

"No problem, it's up to us." Director Wang said with a smile.

"That's it, this is our first batch of goods, I wish the lighter sales are hot, and both of us will make money." Lin Yi raised the teacup and replaced the wine with tea.

Director Wang also raised his teacup.

Following

At the entrance of the Lin Yi store on Hanzheng Street, a new sign was erected to sell lighters cheaply, and a new stall was set up, which was full of lighters.

Lin Yi's store has a new product, and many merchants who pick up the goods can't help but come over to have a look.

Booths,

Stocked with all kinds of lighters.

Imitation Zhibao, stainless steel shell, copper shell, electroplating, generation pattern, imitation bullet shell, various styles.

There were no disposable lighters in those days, and that thing would not appear until the 90s, and now lighters are mainly based on metal shells, rubbing flint ignition oil.

Among the things that men like,

Cars, watches....

Lighters definitely have a place.

After the purchase last night, Jiang Wu and Li Xiang Ma Dan a group of guys, played all kinds of lighters, Lin Yi asked these guys to pick two each, and he also picked several.

Wholesalers come here,

Immediately attracted by the new goods.

"Boss, how do you wholesale these lighters?"

Jiang Wu worked hard to promote: "Each price is different, but we dare to guarantee that our lighters are factory direct sales, which are definitely lower than the prices of all channels, and each lighter also comes with a pack of ten flints, plus a small oil pipe." ”

The size of a small tubing eye drops, it contains fire oil, that is, kerosene, and a small tubing can be used to fill a lighter twice, and it can be sold for 5 cents a bottle.

Because there are too many models, Li Xiangqian directly took out the wholesale price list, of course, the price after calculating the profit.

Many of these wholesalers have dealt in lighters, and the price is indeed much cheaper than if they took the goods from other places.

"Boss, I'll have fifty."

"I want it too, bring me two of the same, and take them back to try."

Although each person doesn't want much, the wholesalers who come to Lin Yi to pick up the goods have dozens or hundreds of people every day, and each person wants dozens of lighters, which is not a small amount.

These lighters,

It's really cheaper than the one outside,

Lin Yiliu's profit is only 20 percent,

The profit is much lower than the electronic watches, sunglasses, and even wall calendars sold before, but this is a business that can be done for a long time, and as long as the channels are smooth, Lin Yi doesn't have to worry about it later, Jiang Wu and Li can be at their mercy.

At the end of the first day,

Take stock of lighter sales,

A total of more than 2,000 yuan of wholesale goods out.

Lin Yi earned more than 500.

Is it less?

If it is other merchants on Hanzheng Street, they will definitely be ecstatic, earning 500 a day, and 20 days is 10,000 yuan, can you not be excited.

But for Lin Yi,

It's just a base.

Sunglasses and wall calendars, an average of three or four thousand are credited to the account every day.

But the sunglasses are too troublesome,

Every once in a while I have to go south to the south,

As for the wall calendar,

It's also the last period, as long as the New Year is over, there will be no sales in an instant, so Lin Yi called Li Xiangqian,

"Forward, this time you go to pull the wall calendar, and tell the printing house that this is the last batch and don't print it later."

"Not at all?"

Stopping, Li Xiangqian felt a little pity.

"Don't want it, and before the Chinese New Year, the wall calendar in your hand will be processed as soon as possible, and the wall calendar will not be sold at all after the New Year, and the rest will only smash our own hands." Lin Yidao.

"I understand, Brother Yi."

Li Xiangqian absolutely believes in Lin Yi's judgment in business.

The next day,

The lighter business is even better than the first day, maybe the news came out, and many merchants came to Lin Yi's side to buy lighters.

The entrance of the new store is very lively.

Two people walked into Hanzheng Street,

One is the director of the flint and steel factory, and the other is a middle-aged man in his forties, who looks five big and three is rough and rugged.

The two stood outside the store selling lighters and watched for a while, looking at the wholesalers who came in and out, carrying large bags and small bags, Director Wang said with a smile,

"Hehe, it's selling well, look at what it means, our factory's New Year's welfare is guaranteed."

Before the backlog of flints, not to mention the welfare of workers, the wages were about to be paid, and it was about to come to the end of the year, and the director of the Wang factory was worried a few days ago.

Now the lighters are sold, and when they get the money, they can give the workers New Year's benefits, so that they will not be scolded by the workers at the door during the New Year.

"Lao Liu, do you want them to help you sell it too?"

It turned out that the person next to Director Wang was Director Liu of the Lighter Factory, and Lin Yi had said to Director Wang that he would tell the Lighter Factory that if he was willing to let them sell on behalf of him, this business would really be able to do it for a long time.

Director Liu is pinching his fingers and counting.

"Selling 500 a day, 180,000 a year, which is a lot more than what we give to the supply and marketing cooperatives.

Director Liu grabbed Director Wang's arm, "Let's go, Lao Wang will take me to find that Boss Lin now." ”

Director Wang laughed.
