Chapter 325 The younger generation is truly formidable.
Yao Shuli's offer to give the two of them advice delighted Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin.
Such a young child, not even fourteen years old, is already giving them business ideas. He's truly fearless!
"Come on, tell me what you think. If you do well, this meal is on me!" Gu Changqing quickly put on a show of goodwill.
Lei Jingwu glanced at the steamed buns on the table that had already been started eating, and then rolled his eyes at Gu Changqing.
That's not classy at all! He doesn't have the demeanor of a typical young master from a wealthy family!
"Shuli, speak properly. If you do well, your brother will take you and your sister to the best restaurant in Shanghai tomorrow." Lei Jingwu also put on his act.
Yao Shuli nodded immediately. "Brother Jingwu is truly generous!"
Xiao Tian also nodded. Big Brother is so generous. Cousin is clearly richer than Big Brother, so why is he so stingy? Is he always like this when he treats people to meals in business?
How did he manage to build such a large business?! Was it all thanks to his older brother's guidance...?
My older sister definitely wouldn't approve of someone who's too stingy, and my cousin is going to cross him off his list!
...
“Brothers, I know what you’re thinking. Your business is very large, and you earn more than double the money every time you go out,” Yao Shuli said first.
Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin both raised an eyebrow.
That kid's something else, he actually thought of that, knowing they can make a lot of money on one trip.
That's true. If they weren't making much money, why would they bother with all this? Wouldn't it be better for them to just stay in Shanghai, rest on their family's laurels, and live off their past achievements?
It's so relaxing and comfortable...
"Okay, go on!" Lei Jingwu took a sip of cola.
"You look down on this little bit of money because you earn so much. In your eyes, collecting treasury bonds would take you a lot of time and you wouldn't earn as much as you would from transporting a single shipment."
I bet the two older brothers are distributing the goods to locals in various places, and your current trading method is definitely cash on delivery.
"In that case, you can add another method." Yao Shuli said, looking at Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin.
Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin nodded.
Yes, that's right. They've been to all those places many times already, so they should be quite familiar with them by now.
They could easily make things easier by hiring someone to escort the goods or arranging two train cars for those people to pick up at the station themselves. As for payment, it could be settled every three months or every six months.
But they are well aware of the importance of cash flow and insist on settling accounts one at a time, no matter how good their relationship is.
"You mean, which method?" Lei Jingwu asked.
“Allow them to settle with treasury bonds, so you won’t have to go around collecting treasury bonds. Those people will actively and proactively collect treasury bonds from all over the place.”
Of course, if settlement is made using treasury bonds, the price will not be calculated based on the face value of the treasury bonds.
A treasury bond with a face value of ten yuan can only be used as seven yuan or seven yuan and fifty cents.
The more remote the location, the lower the price can be.
Those who buy your goods think that since you're buying treasury bonds, they can still make a little extra profit.
They can buy treasury bonds at a lower price than the percentage you offer.
Treasury bonds in remote areas are currently not legal tender, and those who hold them essentially treat them as worthless paper.
They'll take action as long as someone offers the money.
In that case, wouldn't you be able to get a lot of treasury bonds without wasting any time?
Let's do the math... If you come back and can sell 11 out of 10 treasury bonds at a rate of...
Your profits can increase by at least 40%.
"Brother Jingwu, Brother Changqin, this is a very good deal. It's just a piece of cake for you two," Yao Shuli said earnestly.
Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin were somewhat stunned.
They stared at Yao Shuli for a long while...
Why didn't they think of this method before?
What they were thinking was that even if the price of treasury bonds in remote areas was much lower than that in Shanghai, it would be a waste of time for them to set aside manpower specifically to collect treasury bonds.
But Yao Shuli's method allowed them to obtain treasury bonds without spending any time.
Moreover, those who settle with treasury bonds will be happy, because everyone can make a profit!
Although they are making a lot of money now, it is still much less than it was three years ago, which is why they are opening companies everywhere.
The more paths they have, the smoother their journey will be.
Previously, their profit per trip was at least double, and sometimes even triple.
But now that there are more people running businesses, their profits have been diluted.
After all, there are quite a few people like them who have connections and influence...
Yao Shuli's method...
It works great! It increased their profits by at least 50%.
This young man... he's a force to be reckoned with!
No wonder she was trained by Yao Shula, she's so smart!
This kid's mind works incredibly fast. No wonder Yao Shula insisted on keeping an eye on Yao Shuli and didn't want him to enter society so early!
If Yao Shuli were to enter society now, he'd be quick-witted and know how to make money; who knows what kind of trouble he'd cause!
Lei Jingwu gently patted Yao Shuli's shoulder.
"You're a good kid...not bad! You're a promising young man! We'll take the treasury bonds you wanted, and as for sharing the profits with us..."
You've given us such great ideas, how could we possibly accept your money!
Don't worry! We not only help you exchange treasury bonds from outside, but we also help you bring the treasury bonds to the Shanghai Stock Exchange to exchange them, and then use the money to buy back the treasury bonds.
"How about this?"
Yao Shuli's eyes narrowed into slits with joy...
However, he still reminded Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin.
"Brothers, the method I just told you will probably only work for a little over a year. It definitely won't work after that."
Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin looked at Yao Shuli again.
"What do you mean? Why can it only be used for a little over a year? Are you afraid the government will cancel the treasury bonds?"
"Impossible! The government won't cancel treasury bonds," Gu Changqin laughed.
Yao Shuli nodded.
“I know the government will not cancel treasury bonds, and I also know that the government will not only not cancel treasury bonds, but will also issue treasury bonds frequently.”
Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin both narrowed their eyes.
Are you so sure?
“Confirmed!” Yao Shuli nodded very seriously.
"Why?" Lei Jingwu asked.
"Because issuing treasury bonds is for national development, and now there is construction everywhere in China, so there will only be more and more places that need money!" Yao Shuli said softly.
Lei Jingwu, Gu Changqin...
This kid's got some skills!
