Chapter 93: Wholesale Market
In the industrial goods market, Luo Zhengjiang is bargaining with the shopkeeper. He fell in love with an electric three-wheeler, but the price of an electric three-wheeler is not cheap, and the cheapest one costs thousands of dollars. Luo Zhengjiang only bought a house this year, and the account has not been paid off. Although he could get a few thousand yuan on hand, Luo Zhengjiang was still a little reluctant.
The wholesale vegetable market is indeed a bit far away, and it takes a lot of effort to ride there every day. Buying a power-assisted tricycle can make it a lot easier.
"It's too expensive, so I'd better buy a rickshaw. Luo Zhengjiang hesitated for a long time and still rejected the shopkeeper.
"Hey, don't go. Cheap, I have it here, but it's not new. Ninety percent new. There is no damage at all on the outside. An acquaintance bought it, and it didn't take long for him to return the car because he changed his career to another business. Let me deal with him casually. Seeing that Luo Zhengjiang was about to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped Luo Zhengjiang.
"Second-hand, I don't want it. Luo Zhengjiang is worried that the second-hand car will not come from the right way, and if he encounters a stolen car, he will not be able to get it cheaply at that time, and he will get into trouble.
"You can rest assured, although it is a second-hand car, there will definitely be no problem with the road. And I'm here to give you a voucher for the purchase of a car, even if something happens, it's not for you to take the risk. In fact, if you look at the car, you know that there can't be anything wrong with this car. Warranties, car purchase invoices, etc., all complete. If someone finds out that there is a problem, you can come to the store and look for me. I can write this clearly for you on a note. The shopkeeper saw that Luo Zhengjiang really wanted to buy an electric three-wheeler, but he was shy in his pocket.
"Then will there be anything wrong with your electric three-wheeler? But don't end up, I spend more money on my old car than on other people's new cars. Luo Zhengjiang said with some concern.
"You can rest assured that this car is still under warranty. What's wrong, you don't have to spend a penny, we will repair your car for free. The shopkeeper patted his chest and reassured.
Luo Zhengjiang looked at the car, the car was indeed brand new, and after carefully checking the condition of the car, there was nothing wrong. The shop owner's offer is also very realistic, almost half the price of a new car. A large lock was also delivered. It is said that it is also the owner of the original car. Luo Zhengjiang was really a little tempted. As soon as I gritted my teeth, I bought the car. By the way, I bought some materials in the industrial goods market. It was all loaded on a tricycle and rode back.
Zeng Hongmei was also very happy when she saw the man driving an electric tricycle back: "It's good to buy an electric one, it's too time-consuming to ride a bicycle to the wholesale market so far." ”
"It just cost a lot of money. The money has not been earned yet, but a large sum of money has been spent first. Luo Zhengjiang said with a smile.
Good men are all-rounders, able to earn money outside and fix electric lights when they get home. Luo Zhengjiang took a saw and a small axe, and it didn't take much time to build a simple shed.
When Luo Tianwang went home, Luo Zhengjiang had already set up the shed and set up a vegetable rack under the shed. It's all modeled after the shelves of grocery shopping in the farmer's market. Selling those vegetables, the two of them also thought about it. Luo Zhengjiang made a list and prepared to go to the wholesale market early the next morning to buy goods.
The next day was the weekend, and Luo Tianwang also wanted to meet the world with the past.
"Dad, I'll go with you. Luo Tianwang said.
"What are you going to do? There's nothing fun going on in the wholesale market. And after the dishes are approved, my father has to rush back. Otherwise, I would have come back late, and the people in the community would have gone to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Luo Zhengjiang said.
"I'm going to help you. You go and approve things, and I can show you the car. Luo Tianwang said.
Zeng Hongmei said on the side: "Tianwang wants to go, you let him go." It's also good for him to experience the hard work of selling vegetables. If you don't study hard in the future, you will work as hard as your parents. ”
"Your mother speaks, and I'll take you there. But you'll have to wake up early tomorrow morning. We had to leave at three o'clock. Luo Zhengjiang said.
In the early hours of the morning, Luo Tianwang was still sleeping in a daze, and was woken up by Luo Zhengjiang.
"Tianwang, do you still go to the wholesale market with your father? If you want to go, get up quickly. Otherwise, Daddy won't be waiting for you. Luo Zhengjiang pushed Luo Tianwang.
Luo Tianwang was dazed, his eyes were a little open, but he still wanted to go, and yawned: "Dad, what time is it? Why did you go so early?"
"The trucks that deliver vegetables are all from other places, and they can't enter the city at dawn. You have to come in at night, unload and leave. It just so happens that the people who sell vegetables go to buy at this time, and they come back just in time for the morning market. Luo Zhengjiang said.
Luo Tianwang got dressed and sat in the tricycle car. Zeng Hongmei put a few snakeskin bags in the carriage and put them on the mat, so that Luo Tianwang could sit on them. He also told Luo Tianwangmo that he fell asleep on the road and didn't know if he fell out of the car.
When he arrived outside, he was blown by the cool wind of the early morning, and Luo Tianwang was already sleepy and became extremely excited.
Luo Zhengjiang was a little excited and a little apprehensive in his heart. Excitedly, business began. What worries me is that so much money has been invested in this business before it has even started, and it is still not bottom at all whether it is good or not.
At this point, there are almost no vehicles and pedestrians on the road. The road is quiet, only the street lights illuminate the road in yellow.
When I was about to arrive at the fruit and vegetable wholesale market, I saw several large trucks passing by.
Luo Zhengjiang has also been to the wholesale market, so he is no stranger to this place. Turned on the electric tricycle and went directly to the wholesale market.
In the wholesale market, there are many vegetable vendors like Luo Zhengjiang who come on three wheels. Some of them are often grouped together, and some are temporary partners. As soon as Luo Zhengjiang entered the vegetable market, someone pulled him over to join him. The wholesalers' vegetables are loaded in large pieces, and they naturally do not have the time to break up the goods and sell them to these vendors. They had to unload the vegetables as quickly as possible and then get the trucks out of the city during the restricted hours. So the smallest unit they wholesale is a whole piece. A whole piece of goods, one or two vegetable sellers simply can't eat it.
"Brother, you're the first to come back to the market? A man of the same age as Luo Zhengjiang walked over, this man's name is Wang Yanhu, and he has been a vegetable seller in the neighborhood for several years.
Luo Zhengjiang nodded: "I set up a stall at the entrance of the community, and I was just about to do it." ”
"It's fine. If you can trust me, come with us to divide the goods. Which vegetables to go with, how much, I'll give you a suggestion later. Don't worry, everyone is here every day. Won't bully you a newcomer. Wang Yanhu said.
"I can trust it. How many of them are cheating and cheating?" Luo Zhengjiang said with a smile.
Wang Yanhu laughed: "You are right. ”
Wang Yanhu is really good, and he unreservedly taught some of his experience in buying vegetables to Luo Zhengjiang.
The distribution of dishes is also fair, and no one suffers. In the wholesale market, the purchase price of vegetables is indeed cheap, only a little more than a third of the retail price. Not even a third. But that's not to say that the profits from grocery shopping are so high. Because there will always be a lot of wear and tear when buying groceries. For example, people who buy vegetables will always clean up the outer layer of old leaves. And some will be sold for the rest. In the end, it may be three or four percent of the profit.
