Chapter 609 I'm Investing in You
"Thank you for what I just did," the young man said, handing over a piece of paper. "This is some data I compiled. I hope it can help you."
"Hmm?" Jingshu took the paper. What does it mean?
Seeing Jingshu's puzzled look, the young man explained expressionlessly, "Hello, my name is Tang Tuotong. Where there is a market, there are merchants. I am a buyer, a new profession in the end times.
My usual duties include buying low and selling high, helping people buy things, bargaining, appraising prices, and collecting good things from all over the world. If you need some specific or special items, you can also contact me and I can help you get them.
After finishing speaking, Tang Tuotong added, "Anything." It sounded inexplicably awesome.
Jingshu nodded in understanding. Collecting the best goods from around the world sounded impressive, and Tang Tuotong's supply channels weren't bad either. But the name "Tuotong" itself, didn't it? Jingshu glanced at the unassuming young man again. Wasn't this businessman a little too calm? Was he sure he could make money?
Jingshu lowered her head, looking at the data on the paper. Tang Tuo explained to her, "Not everything in the trading hall is reasonably priced. These items are a bit high. The items on the back half are reasonably priced and suitable for purchase. If you have the financial means, I suggest you buy all of them. You can also invest in advance."
Jingshu took a look and saw that it contained the items in the trading hall, along with the original prices and the subsequent suggested price fluctuations, as well as a predicted price and historical prices. It was very detailed.
Not only that, the prices of the items sold by the people who came today were obviously the data that Tang Custody had just made up temporarily. Not only that, the maximum demand list and guessed prices were clearly written above.
What made Jingshu feel most awesome was that this person wrote it by hand, but each digital table was arranged as if it were printed out, so neatly that one could know all the information at a glance. He also thoughtfully wrote all the notes, so it really was a fool-proof data spreadsheet.
Tang Trusteeship lives up to its name.
Jingshu turned the page and saw the predictions for this ranking. The top three categories of "most anticipated products" were tobacco, alcohol, and tea.
This shows that the rich people in the end times are not short of food, but what they like most after eating should be the best-selling ones.
Tang Tuotu explained, "The items we're most looking forward to selling are the ones that are easiest to sell right now. Because they're easy to preserve, there are still many left. As long as the price is right, someone will buy them. It's impossible to find a bargain here. Of course, their advantages are also stable prices and relatively stable supply channels."
Jingshu nodded.
The most in-demand items are live poultry, seasonings, and top-quality ingredients.
Tang Tuotong continued to explain, "The most in-demand list represents the most in-demand items right now. According to supply, as soon as these items appear, their prices will inevitably rise, and they'll continue to rise. I've seen your items for sale, and if nothing goes wrong, you can fetch a good price. Congratulations in advance, but I suggest you buy some live poultry and top-quality ingredients instead, as they'll be increasingly scarce."
"Thank you." Jingshu smiled, already thinking about what to buy.
"Okay, respected members, the voting results are out. Please look at the big screen and let's take a look at today's most anticipated new products!" Fatty Wang was also a little excited. The screen gradually changed, and dozens of light beams suddenly appeared on the virtual 3D simulation scene. Each light beam represented a merchant, and these merchants all sold tobacco.
"That's right, the most anticipated product today is still tobacco. The merchants brought brands such as Zhonghua cigarettes and handmade cigars today. The quality has been authenticated by professionals. Well, there are not many items, so please buy and sell directly on the spot. The transaction channel will be locked after 60 seconds. The exchange on the eighth floor will directly purchase the items below the market price at the reserve price." Fatty Wang said.
The method used by the eighth-floor trading club is really amazing. As long as the price is lower than the market price, all products will be bought back, which almost guarantees that every product will be sold out. It is this method that greatly accelerates the transaction flow of goods in the trading market, thus ensuring the club's profitability.
Seller
When people have money, they will buy
Once something starts flowing, it becomes alive.
Just as Tang Tuotong said, the prices of tobacco sold by more than a dozen merchants were different. The price of a pack of soft Zhonghua cigarettes was as high as tens of thousands of virtual coins, but it was still quickly settled.
The trading model was very interesting. Someone quickly entered the reserve price for various types of tobacco, and finally even the homemade cigars had their prices set one by one. Everyone then reached a consensus and stopped raising the price.
After 60 seconds, all kinds of tobacco were sold out. Jingshu shook her head and wondered what Jingye would think if he knew that the cigars he smoked could be exchanged for thousands of insect cakes and hundreds of steamed buns?
The second most anticipated product came out, and it was indeed the wine that Tang Custodian predicted. There were all kinds of wine, from ordinary to expensive, but Jingshu was not interested. Except for Jingye and Jingba who occasionally had a few drinks, there was not much demand for wine.
Jingshu also has a lot of homemade turtle and snake wine at home to prevent rheumatism, not to mention that she went to the United States and brought back all kinds of red wine.
Tang Tuotong made a move. The wine market is really treacherous. As he was operating, Tang Tuotong said: "Buying wine is like buying a house. Buy when it's rising, not when it's falling. Don't let red wine get too watery. Old brands have greater collection value. Investment still depends on taste and audience appeal."
Jingshu blinked and nodded. She only cared about useful supplies and top-quality ingredients in the apocalypse.
"I'm investing in you." Tang Tuo's hands were clacking. He had already bid several times. The wine market was full of water. Some wines were ignored, but some became the object of competition.
"Huh?" Jingshu blinked. Tang Tuotong continued, "Your item won't appear on either the most anticipated list or the most in-demand list. If I'm guessing correctly, it should appear at the end."
"Um?"
"This is the insider consensus of the exchange. On the one hand, they see that the goods you are selling are in short supply, so in order to compete with the price, they choose to bury you first. Secondly, it is the exchange's intention to finally expose your goods. Think about it, people who have already spent all their money or are temporarily broke will not borrow money to buy them?
As long as you borrow money, you're going to incur interest. So, to reduce competition, and to earn interest, neither party wants a strong competitor to appear too early."
Jingshu's eyes lit up. So, her goods were the highlight today? Could they fetch a good price? Wait, she was clearly here to stock up, so selling was just a side job.
