Chapter 148: The pattern needs to be opened

When Chen Jintao and Huo Beichuan went over there, the women had just started packing their things.

We were all very happy to see them coming.

Although everyone's face was more or less tired, the light in their eyes did not diminish at all.

Especially the three aunts, they only witnessed the power of this street stall today.

Although I was so busy that I had no time to remember how much money I collected, but based on the customer flow today, I guess I collected 300 yuan in cash.

"Have you found a house?" This time Xu Xuemei took the initiative to ask.

She also felt it was troublesome to make popcorn and milk tea from the village and then bring them to the town to sell every day. Now she realized the importance of having a house.

"We found it, and we've already settled in. By the way, we've added all the necessary things inside. You can do it directly there tomorrow, so I'll take you there to have a look later."

Shen Jintao said with a smile.

"Really?" Xu Xuemei's eyes lit up. She didn't expect finding a house would be so easy.

"Of course it's true, how could I lie to you?"

"Pack up all your things, put them on the cart and push it over. You don't have to bring them back to the countryside today. We can start cooking in the rented house tomorrow. We can make popcorn and milk tea here in the future. It won't be so troublesome and tiring."

And Shen Jintao had another idea in her mind.

In fact, doing this is just to make a little money.

Of course, this is not a small amount of money for Xu Xuemei, although her daughter has already said that business cannot always be so good.

That is to say, you can earn this much at the beginning, but it will definitely decrease later.

A profit of several dozen yuan a day is already very good, but it can also be a lot of money in a month.

But Chen Jintao was someone who had seen big scenes, so she naturally understood that this money was nothing.

If you want to make big money, you must open up your horizons.

After Xue Xuemei's people saw the house, they couldn't help but applaud.

After looking around the house, Zhang Qin couldn't help but say, "It looks really nice, all made of blue bricks and big tiles. It's a bit of a waste to use such a nice house as a workshop."

Chen Jintao laughed, "Aunt, this house is not just used as a workshop. You can rest here when you are tired. You don't have to go back at noon. You can cook here. If you are really busy too late, you can go home the next day. I have made two rooms, and this house has big bunk beds, so even if all my uncles come here, it can still accommodate them."

She had seen it when she bought the house, and it seemed that the large bunk bed could accommodate more than ten people.

In fact, the weather here is not that cold, but many people do this in this era. There is no other reason. The main reason is that they want to buy a bed, which is much more expensive than directly making a kang.

Moreover, the conditions in that era were really bad. Not many people could afford new cotton-padded clothes in the winter, and it was really cold.

So the big kang from the north was introduced here. Although not many people do this, many people choose this method in order to save money and keep warm in winter.

"Then let's bring some bedding and other things over tomorrow, so we can rest here at noon in the future."

"It's a pity that we can't sell it directly in the store now, otherwise we wouldn't have to run around outside." Xu Xuemei sighed.

Chen Jintao knew that she would not be able to open the store directly in the next one or two years.

Setting up stalls can only be considered a small matter, and those people will turn a blind eye to it.

But it’s different if you open a store seriously. You need to be a real self-employed business owner, and it’s still not easy to be accepted. If the people in the revolutionary union are very serious about it, you’ll be doomed.

"Mom, I actually have another solution. You don't have to run around outside."

Chen Jintao said while blinking.

"Ah?" Xu Xuemei was a little confused.

"I'm telling you..."

After hearing what her daughter said, Xu Xuemei was completely dumbfounded.

"Is it possible?"

"Why not? The pattern needs to be expanded. Although the profit will be less, the amount sold will be large."

"Think about it, if you don't have to go out and set up a stall, how much more popcorn and milk tea can you make here by yourself? You can just find someone to sell it, give them a wholesale price, and then set the price for them. For example, if you can only sell popcorn for 50 cents a serving, then you can only have 50 cents a serving, and this way the market won't be chaotic."

"And you can also let people who come to your store to get goods go to different areas, so that no one conflicts and everyone can make some money. If you have a larger shipment volume, won't you make more money?"

Chen Jintao didn't know what to say to them about the upper and lower limits now, as they didn't understand at all, so she just kept it simple and straightforward.

In fact, it is a dealer model. As long as this road is opened up, it is not impossible to make hundreds, thousands or even more in net profit every day.

Wasn’t it easy to become a ten thousand yuan household in the 1980s?

"Then can we also buy the goods directly from your mother? And then sell them somewhere else?"

Among the three aunts, the eldest aunt Zhang Qin has the quickest brain and immediately thought of the key.

Chen Jintao gave her aunt a thumbs up and said, "You are so smart! It would be time-consuming and laborious to make it yourself. You might as well get it from my mom and sell it. This way you won't waste any time at all."

"But there is a loophole in my method. The supply of bamboo cups is definitely not enough. We need more people to make bamboo cups."

Or it is because the current industry is not so developed. If it were in the future, there would be no need for such trouble.

However, Chen Jintao thinks that the bamboo cup is also a feature of their milk tea. In the future, when others see this cup, they will know which brand it belongs to. It can also be regarded as a brand feature.

"Your uncles can definitely do this!" Zhang Qin said quickly, "Your three uncles are not talkative. If you really let them go out to sell things, they may not be able to do it well. But if you let them make bamboo cups directly at home, there will definitely be no problem. As for the problem of the cup lid."

Chen Jintao curled her lips, and she was in a really good mood. "Aunt, what you said is also a way. I will discuss it with my father-in-law after I go back. I will let him form a team and let him teach my uncles how to make bamboo cups and cup lids. I will also pay them according to the commission system."

The three aunts didn't think that there was anything wrong with Chen Jintao's behavior. After all, it was they who came up with the bamboo cup, and it was their niece who came up with the popcorn and milk tea business. It was already great for them to be able to follow behind and have a sip of soup. They couldn't expect to take all the profits, right?

Seeing that they looked normal, Shen Jintao knew what was going on.
