Chapter 49: The Night of the Pearl River
Li Yunhai brought 20,000 yuan, and after thinking twice, he still bought all the Ricoh brand copiers.
The two photocopiers of Ricoh and Canon have a high proportion of foreign markets, so there are many products that have been eliminated.
Ricoh brand is a high-speed copier, and it is also the best copier model that can be bought on the market in China.
Canon's model is slightly worse, but the price is almost 20,000 yuan cheaper, and it is also the preferred choice of many units.
For these two machines, Li Yunhai's price is the same, when the hardware scrap is bought, 600 yuan a ton.
In this case, of course, it is still a good deal to buy Ricoh.
Li Yunhai has already tasted the sweetness of transforming second-hand photocopiers, and knows that there are huge profits in it, so he dares to invest such a big capital.
For 20,000 yuan, you can buy 34 tons of second-hand photocopiers, and there are more than 200 units!
Even if ten waste machines are transformed into a second-hand machine, he can earn 200,000!
Li Yunhai and Shi Wentao negotiated the purchase and sale of photocopiers and walked out of the warehouse.
He saw that there was more than one warehouse in the factory, and asked casually: "Boss Shi, are your other warehouses stacked with photocopiers?" ”
Shi Wentao pointed to several warehouses in the distance: "There are machine tools and various electrical appliances. ”
Li Yunhai's heart moved, and he asked, "What about computers and printers?" Do you have? ”
Shi Wentao handed a cigarette to Li Yunhai and said with a smile: "Of course there is!" What's wrong? Do you want it too? What we do is this kind of waste hardware business, and we sell the hardware and electrical appliances eliminated from abroad. ”
Li Yunhai was overjoyed, he didn't care about smoking, put the cigarette behind his ear, and said, "Take me to see the computer and printer." ”
Shi Wentao made a gesture of invitation and took Li Yunhai to a warehouse.
Li Yunhai walked into the warehouse full of hope, but was disappointed.
These computers and printers are so old that they can really only be used as waste hardware accessories.
"Boss Shi, is there only such an old machine? Is there a photocopier that has five to eight finished phases? ”
"Sometimes there is, it depends on the batch. If you want, I'll keep it for you next time, right? ”
"Okay, if there is a good condition, you can notify me, I will come to see the goods, as long as the quality is good, I will definitely buy it!"
Shi Wentao already knew that Li Yunhai's business was to repair these machines and sell them, so he also understood his requirements.
Li Yunhai squatted down and pulled around the pile of old printers and computers for a while, making sure that there was no value in repairing them, so he reluctantly got up and left.
Ding Qiang is still on the road, and he will not arrive until night, and he will have to sleep when he arrives, so he will not be able to load the truck until tomorrow morning.
In any case, it is still faster to ask them to deliver the goods than to wait for the wagons to be delivered.
Li Yunhai selected the goods and paid off the goods first, after all, he still had to live in Huacheng for one night, and it was not safe to carry so much money with him.
Shi Wentao issued Li Yunhai a receipt voucher and told him that he could come to load the car at any time.
Li Yunhai paid the money, left the backpack to Shi Wenyin, and asked her to help find a professional leather designer to repair it.
In addition to the payment, Li Yunhai also brought more than 1,000 yuan on his body, in case of emergency, he took out the money, counted out 1,000 yuan, and handed it to Shi Wenyin, saying that this is the money for repairing the backpack, and he will return more and make up for the deficiency when the time comes.
Shi Wenyin said with a smile, don't give me money yet, I'll find someone to see if I can repair it first, and then give me money when you come over to pick up the bag.
Li Yunhai said thank you, saw that it was getting late, and then left.
He didn't expect that he would go to Huacheng again so soon, and bought some clothes for his family last time, and this time he came again, he had more money, and he wanted to add some daily necessities for himself and his family.
Before coming to Huacheng, Li Yunhai asked Liu Shitao for a business trip certificate, and found a hotel to live in smoothly.
Because the Canton Fair is held twice a year, the restaurant and hotel, the hotel and the like are particularly developed, such as the famous White Swan Hotel, which opened in 1983, which is also the first five-star hotel in China, using computer management. The accommodation does not require a business trip certificate and is open to non-hotel visitors and citizens. The consumption of white swans is extremely high, and a buffet costs 188 yuan, which is simply sky-high in the era of tens of yuan per capita monthly salary.
Although Li Yunhai was rich, he didn't want to go to the White Swan to squander, so he came to Yanjiang Road in the city center, found a clean hotel, and opened a single room, with a accommodation fee of 18 yuan, which can be regarded as a high price.
After he settled in, he went to a restaurant on the street and bought a bowl of wonton noodles for 5 dimes and a bottle of beer for 4 dimes and 8 cents to quench his thirst.
The consumption level here in Huacheng is significantly higher than that in Xizhou, and of course the salary is also a little higher, like the White Swan Hotel, where the salary of employees is several hundred.
Li Yunhai had dinner and walked to a nearby department store.
The 12-storey Southern Tower was once the tallest building in East Asia. During the Republic of China, it was the most luxurious department store in Huacheng, and it was equipped with an elevator when it opened in the 20s, and a spiral ramp was installed on the first to fourth floors of the building for cars to get on and off.
This is the first department store in the country to launch "standing service" and "smile service".
In front of the counter of the mall, there is a sign that reads: "Don't get tired of asking questions." ”
Li Yunhai came to the clock counter, he always wanted to buy himself a watch so that he could easily check the time.
Several old brands of domestic watches are nothing more than Shanghai watches, Beijin watches, and Seagull watches, with prices ranging from tens to hundreds, and so on.
Li Yunhai picked out a Shanghai brand mechanical watch with a white dial and asked the salesman: "Comrade, can I try this watch?" ”
The salesperson here has a surprisingly good service attitude, not only standing service, but also smiling. She took out the watch from the glass counter, helped put it on Li Yunhai's wrist, and said, "Sir, the strap is long, we can help change it for free." ”
Li Yunhai raised his arm and looked at the watch on his wrist, not to mention, he was quite angry.
The watch costs 198 yuan.
Li Yunhai touched the shiny case and asked the salesperson: "I don't have a ticket, can I buy it?" ”
The waiter giggled, "You're from Xizhou, right?" Listening to your accent is like someone over there. We don't need a ticket to buy a watch here. As long as you have the money. ”
Li Yunhai nodded, thinking that this was indeed the case, Huacheng was at the forefront of opening up. To buy a brand-name watch in Xizhou, you still need a watch purchase certificate.
He took out the money to buy the watch, changed the strap on the spot, put it on his hand, and continued to shop, buying some clothes and accessories for his family.
Li Yunhai came out with a bag and stood by the Pearl River, looking at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river.
The surrounding area is a complex of buildings from the Republic of China in the 20th century, which is full of emotion!
In the 30s of the 20th century, the flower city was already so prosperous!
In the past 50 years, time seems to stand still!
50 years ago, the rich people slept in Simmons beds, took the elevator to visit department stores, drove foreign cars, lived in foreign villas, and hired maid services.
And now Li Yunhai, although he can make money, he has nowhere to buy a house of his own! Not to mention the house, he wants to buy a bicycle, and he has to work hard to get a bicycle ticket first.
Li Yunhai returned to the hotel and fell asleep.
The next morning, Li Yunhai contacted Ding Qiang.
Ding Qiang and Sun Lei are both in Huacheng, they live in the dormitory provided by the unit here, and they usually sit and play in the communication room when they have nothing to do. When they return to Xizhou, they can bring goods by the way, earn some shipping money, and sit in the communication room with a phone so that customers can find them.
Because they often run from Xizhou to Huacheng, Ding Qiang and many wholesale bosses in Huacheng are familiar with each other, and they have a wide range of businesses, and they will not run empty cars almost every time.
As soon as Li Yunhai called, Ding Qiang happened to answer.
"Haha! Li Yunhai, I knew you should look for me! Ding Qiang smiled, "Are all the goods over there ready?" ”
"Okay, Brother Ding, there are 34 tons and 216 copiers. How many trucks do you need to fit? ”
Ding Qiang thought for a while and said, "We are driving Dongfeng EQ140 large trucks, with an approved load of 5 tons. Sun Lei and I have two cars, I'll call five more cars, seven cars, each with a load of less than 5 tons, which is absolutely enough! We knew you were going to load, so we didn't take orders from anyone else. ”
Li Yunhai smiled: "That's great! Let's meet at Shi Wentao's company! ”
He put down the phone and took the bus to Shi Wentao's company.
With so many goods in this time, Li Yunhai plans to make a big deal and start his own road to the cultural and Indian empire!
