Looking at the electronic watch that he bought for ten yuan, Song Yuanchao wanted to cry without tears, ten yuan! You must know that his salary was only more than 36 yuan a month, which was nearly a quarter of his salary in January.

But now, this watch has become a shirtless thing before it is hot, so how can Song Yuanchao wear it? Afterwards, Song Yuanchao went to find a vendor selling his watch, but where else could he find it? These hawkers all change places with one shot, and besides, they must know that the quality of this watch is not good, so where would they stupidly wait for Song Yuanchao to come to the door in the old place?

In this way, this electronic watch, which Song Yuanchao had been wearing for only half an hour, ended its mission, and was thrown into a drawer by Song Yuanchao and never wore it again.

Later, after a long time, I don't know where this watch went, but this profound memory has always remained in Song Yuanchao's mind.

The electronic watches that Qin Zhengguo took out behind him are this kind of watches, which seem to be good, the price is cheap, but the quality is extremely poor. And the one he gave to Song Yuanchao and Ying Caixia is different, it is a serious and good watch, Casio's don't talk about it for the time being, even the quality of the two watches of Xiangjiang miscellaneous brands can pass the test, at least there will be no problem with wearing it on your hand for a few years.

"Will anyone buy this kind of broken watch?" Ying Caixia didn't expect that the beautiful watch she thought would be of such poor quality, so she couldn't help but ask.

"Why not, the key is that it's cheap, besides, what kind of nonsense is the truth, I don't know who is saying that this broken watch looks beautiful?" Qin Zhengguo said with a smile, Ying Caixia glared at him with raised eyebrows, this guy really can't open a pot.

Qin Zhengguo smiled and explained, this kind of watch is actually not completely unusable, if you are lucky, there is no problem with wearing it for a year and a half, although it is a plastic core, but after all, this core is also an industrial product, and this basic guarantee is there.

The key is that the assembly quality of this kind of watch is not good, and the boss in Xiangjiang cut corners, resulting in many problems of core shell separation, so if you buy this kind of watch, the first thing is to disassemble the watch case first, and then get some all-purpose glue to re-glue it yourself, and then wear it after making sure that the glue will not fall off, so there is no problem.

Song Yuanchao knew this in his heart, but he didn't know where the case of his watch was lost back then, and even if he wanted to stick it, there was nothing to stick to.

"How much can this kind of table cost if you take the goods in large quantities?" Song Yuanchao picked up the electronic watch with the case and plastic core separated and asked.

"Aid Korea, you don't plan to do this watch business, do you? This kind of watch quality is not good. Qin Zhengguo was surprised.

"Didn't you say it, it's okay to wear this watch for at least a year and a half, the key is that the case needs to be re-glued, isn't it?" Song Yuanchao asked.

"That's true, but this thing is always sold and people stick to ......." Speaking of this, Qin Zhengguo suddenly came to his senses, and asked instead: "Aiding Korea, do you mean that after taking the goods, you will stick them yourself first to ensure that they will not fall off before shipping?" ”

"Hehe, your kid's brain is spinning quite fast, that's what I thought." Song Yuanchao smiled and nodded.

He held the plastic core that still beat the characters in his hand, and gestured on his wrist: "Although the quality of this watch is poor, to be honest, the shape is still okay, and if the problem of the shell falling off can be solved, the sales should be good." Of course, I know that this watch is definitely not as good as the few pieces you gave us, but the problem is that it is cheaper, not to mention the rest, you see, this watch can ...... with this watch. ”

As he spoke, Song Yuanchao compared the shirtless electronic watch with Xiangjiang's miscellaneous watch: "One piece is used for seven or eight watches, and if it is replaced by Casio, it can be used as a dozen dollars, even if this watch can run for a year, it will be earned, what do you say?" ”

Qin Zhengguo was thoughtful, and Ying Caixia, who was on the side, seemed to have thought of something, picked up the watches that Song Yuanchao put on the table and looked at them over and over.

With the beginning of reform and opening up, people's living standards have gradually improved, but this improvement is a long-term change, step by step.

In this process, the pursuit of beautiful things is what everyone expects, and at the same time, the desire for new products needs to be done within one's ability in addition to the pursuit.

In later generations, why is the Yiwu small commodity market so prosperous, and many of the products produced by those manufacturers are far inferior to the quality of big brand products, but they are still exported overseas in short supply?

In fact, the reason is very simple, because the products and market sales positioning are different, many products in the Yiwu small commodity market are exported to third world countries, and they are all those small and poor countries. People in these countries generally do not have high incomes and low spending power, but they have the same pursuit of emerging products and best-selling products, so they have formed a consumption pattern similar to that in the early days of China's reform and opening up.

For example, a pair of stockings is sold to southern Africa, and it is clear that good quality stockings can be worn for many days, but because of the high price, they are far less marketable than inferior stockings.

For example, in the eyes of southern Africans, a pair of brightly colored, low-quality stockings with a good style will cost only one yuan, while a pair of good stockings that look similar in quality will sell for ten yuan. Of the two options, southern Africans definitely do not pick the latter, but the former.

Because in their opinion, instead of spending ten yuan on a pair of good stockings of reliable quality, it is better to spend ten yuan on ten pairs or even twelve pairs of low-quality stockings.

Anyway, stockings look similar on the feet, but inferior stockings can be bought in many colors and styles, and you can change a pair a day, and you can wear a new one every day, even if you can't wear it, you can use it as a rag, so it's not more cost-effective than spending the same money directly to buy expensive ones?

This is a simple embodiment of economics in fact, when the Chinese make fun of the peculiar consumption concept of people from other countries in the new century, they just forget that they themselves came over like this, but over time, forget the memory of the long past.

When Song Yuanchao gave this example, Qin Zhengguo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt that this was a bit of a mess.

"I have to go back and ask someone first, in fact, these watches were given to me by someone else when I took other goods, and they didn't ask me for money." Qin Zhengguo pointed to the watch on the table and said: "But I understand the outside market, the normal price is about two yuan, and I estimate that the large quantity can be pressed to at least one yuan and eight cents, as for how much lower it can be, I don't know, this can only be known after talking about it specifically." ”

"Renminbi?"

"That's right! Renminbi! ”

"That's okay, if you can get the goods for about one yuan and eight cents, you can take a batch to test the water after you go back, and the quantity is ......." Song Yuanchao thought for a while and said: "Let's get 10,000 pieces first, you can carefully inspect the goods yourself after you get the goods, and then find someone to reglue them, and send them to me as soon as possible after making sure that there is no problem." ”

"Okay, I'll arrange this when I get back." Qin Zhengguo nodded and agreed, and at this time, Ying Caixia asked curiously on the side: "Aid the DPRK, you take so much?" Even if it costs 18,000 yuan and 10,000 cents, you have to find someone to reglue, what if you can't sell it? ”

"Hahaha, no, it will definitely be able to sell it, besides, 10,000 is nothing, if it can be sold well, you have to buy a lot, this kind of thing is now rare whether it is Huhai or Yanjing, and the market is big."

"Are you really that sure?" Although Ying Caixia's ancestor is a big businessman who does business, she has never been in contact with these, and in her opinion, this money is not a small amount, what if she loses?

"Caixia, since the aid to the DPRK said so, we will do it, if you want to do business, I will definitely not accept the others, but I am obedient to the aid of the DPRK, you just came into contact with these many things and don't know, I will tell you slowly in the future." Seeing that Ying Caixia seemed to be persuading, Qin Zhengguo interjected on the side, Ying Caixia looked at him suspiciously, and when she saw Qin Zhengguo nodding to her seriously, although she still didn't understand in her heart, she still didn't ask this question.

"By the way, if you want to sell it to Huhai or Yanjing, how much do you think is appropriate?"

"You should know better than me how much is sold in the market in Yangcheng, from Yangcheng to Huhai and Yanjing for thousands of miles, what do you see?" Song Yuanchao asked rhetorically.

Qin Zhengguo lit a cigarette and thought about it, and after a while, he said: "It depends on how you sell it, if it is wholesale, I suggest that it will be sold for about six to seven yuan, and the maximum is not more than eight yuan, and if it is retail, it will be sold for ten yuan, what do you think of this price?" ”

What Qin Zhengguo said was similar to Song Yuanchao's thoughts, and he immediately nodded in agreement.

At this time, Ying Caixia on the side was already a little stunned, Ying Caixia listened to the words they just said, and the two of them chatted and decided on a big deal of tens of thousands of yuan, and they also talked about the purchase price and sales price in a bright way.

Before coming to Shanghai, Ying Caixia only worked in the street factory, and her daily work was a lake carton, a carton earned less than a penny, and she was busy for a few cents a day, and her monthly salary was more than 20 yuan.

But Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo didn't take the deal of tens of thousands of yuan in their eyes at all, as if they went out to buy a pack of cigarettes and came back.

What shocked Ying Caixia even more was the pricing that Qin Zhengguo just said, she heard it clearly, the purchase price of one yuan and eight cents was about seven yuan for wholesale, and the retail price was as high as ten yuan at the uniform price? This is simply outrageous!

Even if it is sold at the lowest wholesale price of 6 yuan, the profit of a watch is 333 percent, and every time a watch is sold, it earns 4 yuan and 4 cents, and 10,000 watches are not 44,000 yuan?

Ying Caixia's mental arithmetic is very good, and she came up with an answer after turning around in her mind, this number will definitely not be wrong, oh my God! Is this the greed of the capitalists? For a while, Ying Caixia didn't even know the Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo she was familiar with, how could they sell things for one yuan and eight cents at such a high price, weren't they afraid that they would be arrested as speculation?
