Chapter 66 [Target Chinatown Gift Shop]
Yang Nianzhong looked at the large and small cardboard boxes in a garage and began to worry, how to toss these things out? Yang Nianzhong came to the garage and took out a tool knife and cut open the box full of porcelain, which was full of large anti-collision foam particles.
Just like a dog shaving sand, these particles are scraped aside, and what catches your eye is a white porcelain like jade, with exquisite patterns on it, and the sound is particularly nice to listen to when you knock it on your ear. The color is like jade, and the sound is like a chime, which is the standard of good porcelain, but the patterns painted on the porcelain have a sharp contrast with the oriental porcelain, and it is actually a purple vine.
Take out these porcelains in the same way, there is actually a set of 36 pieces, a set of plates of 12 pieces, of course, large and small, there is even a set of the same, is a purple grape pattern of teapots, teacups, soup bowls, spoons, etc., obviously a set of tableware.
This is still the contents of the small cardboard box, and if the contents of those large cardboard boxes are inside, the number of cutlery will definitely be more. After all, the tableware used in the West is very cumbersome and complicated, and this set of tableware is actually imported from the UK at a relatively high price, but this high price makes Yang Nianzhong embarrassed.
To say that the quality of this batch of porcelain is good, but it is a modern product, and cannot be stored at home as a collection, but if this set of porcelain is used as an edible product, its price is inflated, and it is a little high or low.
How could ordinary people afford porcelain imported from England? Wealthy families don't need such ordinary tableware imported from England, only middle-class income people meet the standard of these tableware, and there are many middle-income people who can sell all these tableware.
The rest are those Swiss Army knives that commemorate the millennium, and when Yang Nianzhong was worried about these things, he heard the sound of his mother calling him to eat. As soon as I sat in the dining room, I didn't wait for the knife and fork to move, when I heard the door in the backyard open, and then there was a sound of jocks going upstairs, and John, a big black man, came up with a big smile.
While the two brothers were eating breakfast, John looked at Yang Nianzhong and said. "Boss, how do you arrange it today? Shall we go to the auction warehouse or sell the things stored in the garage? ”
Yang Nianzhong said angrily as he cut the inside of the plate with a knife, and the bacon that was roasted on the outside and tender on the inside was eaten as he ate. "Of course it's tossing these things, putting them in the garage to take up more space, did you see the new BMW when you came? It was a birthday present from my mother, and I stopped outside and endured the wind and rain, so how could it be. ”
Black John hurriedly nodded and said yes, he will implement whatever the boss decides, and all the brain-consuming things will be solved by Yang Nianzhong. With this stupid big man who only knows how to eat, there is no common language of communication, Yang Nianzhong can only rely on himself, and he just has a car, so he doesn't have to take those expensive taxis.
So after breakfast, the two brothers drove straight to Chinatown in a brand-new BMW car, with samples of Swiss Army knives and porcelain in the trunk of the car.
After a morning of communicating with familiar store owners and giving up some of the profits, 800 Swiss Army Knives were sold in the gift shop, and the price of each of the 800 Swiss Army Knives reached $250.
This is already owned by the Nassau County Chinatown store, and the appetite has been satisfied, and if you want to sell it again, you can only go to New York's Chinatown. What Yang Nianzhong didn't expect was that the most popular was not the commemorative version of the Swiss Army knife, but the porcelain imported from the United Kingdom, which was not only made with high craftsmanship, but also with a particularly beautiful pattern, and the price of each set was expensive.
When it was almost noon, Yang Nianzhong drove back to the backyard of the old BJ fried sauce noodle restaurant, and then loaded the goods into the truck with John. Then John will follow the delivery order, deliver the goods to the designated store, and get the profits back by the way, and Yang Nianzhong drove a BMW straight to New York's Chinatown after lunch.
Although New York's Chinatown is not the largest Chinatown in the United States, New York's population is definitely world-class, plus Yang Nianzhong's image is a handsome guy, and his mouth is particularly sweet, he can actually communicate with the owners of those Chinatown shops in Chinese, which produces a good sense of intimacy.
In addition, the goods provided by Yang Nianzhong are all from formal channels, and the prices are also very cheap, and the goods will be welcomed by those consumers.
The two sides negotiated the price and then handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and in the next two days, Yang Nianzhong and John drove the truck everywhere to deliver and collect the money, and there was no time to even auction the warehouse.
The only thing that made those shop owners angry was that the Swiss Army Knife numbers provided to them by Yang Nianzhong were all ordinary goods, and they didn't even have a better number. At the same time, these bosses also knew that Yang Nianzhong must have collected these well-numbered Swiss Army knives in his hands, so Yang Nianzhong left his contact information.
If Yang Nianzhong wants to sell the Swiss Army Knife with the auspicious number in his hand, he will find them, and he will definitely give Yang Nianzhong a very favorable price. And Yang Nianzhong scoffed at this request, those Swiss Army knives have a high collection value and do not take up space, and they are not products with a shelf life, why should they be sold.
But in order to obtain a good cooperative relationship with these shop owners, Yang Nianzhong could only nod and agree, and it was his own decision whether to sell or not. Although the price of porcelain is a lot higher than that of the Swiss Army Knife, the quantity of this porcelain is too small, and the number of Swiss Army Knife is too much, and it took two days to toss all these things.
Although they were tired of tossing out, Yang Nianzhong and John were particularly satisfied with the income, and the cash harvest of the two brothers reached 300,000 US dollars. In addition, there are so many collectible sabers that have not been sold and have made a profit equivalent to ten times, which is quite a profit margin.
Of course, it was impossible for Yang Nianzhong to sell all these expensive and British imported porcelain, and kept two sets at home, and another set of porcelain printed with rose patterns was given to John. And they are all a full set of tableware and porcelain, the number has reached 365 pieces, and the price given by the gift store is 800 US dollars, and Yang Nianzhong is not willing to sell it.
Dispose of all these things, although some of the business has been delayed, but the next day is Saturday, and tomorrow is Yang Nianzhong's birthday, so the two brothers plan to rest for two days. After dinner, Yang Nianzhong mysteriously returned to his room and used the computer to make a video connection with his girlfriend Anne in Boston.
Although the two cannot be said to be old husbands and wives, they have been together for a long time, but the two of them are still like a new couple in love, telling affectionate love words.
In the video, Anne also apologized to Yang Nianzhong, because she was very busy with her studies recently, and she returned to New York to accompany Yang Nianzhong for her 20th birthday.
And comforted Anne not to care, her business has been very busy recently, after all, the warehouse auction is seasonal, after the spring auction, she will drive to Boston to visit Anne in the middle of the year of the goat, and then Anne can lead Yang Nianzhong to take a good walk around Boston to watch a Celtic game.
