Chapter 254: Divide the Money
Wang Xian was stunned. "What method?"
"You said you work in a clothing store in the city, so you should know a lot of people who own stores. So, as long as you can get 200 pairs of bell-bottom pants at a time, I'll give you 18 yuan each, and then you can sell them to other people for 21 yuan. You don't need to do anything, and you can make 2 yuan for each pair you resell. 200 pairs means 400 yuan. Where can you find such a good job?"
Jiang Xinbai himself didn't have many connections in the city, so naturally he didn't want to go to the trouble of looking for a middleman. It would be better for him to just give it to Wang Xian and let her deal with it. He just needed to make the money comfortably.
“I see…”
Wang Xian was naturally tempted when she heard that she was suddenly given two dollars less, but two hundred pieces, even if they were sold at eighteen dollars each, would still cost three thousand six hundred. She did not have so much money. Besides, the risk of holding back the goods was too great.
Jiang Xinbai naturally saw Wang Xian's dilemma, so she smiled and said, "Girl, how about this? You can first sell 15 pairs of bell-bottom pants, and I will directly give you 18 pairs. When someone comes to you to ask about the source of goods, you can directly give them a quote, and then come to me to buy the goods. Of course, the starting price is still 200 yuan. What do you think?"
Wang Xian was naturally very happy when she heard this. No matter whether she could come back to purchase goods in the future, she had gotten a bargain this time. So she left happily with the fifteen pairs of bell-bottom pants.
After watching Wang Xian and the others leave, Yang Jiabao asked softly, "Mom, what if they don't come to buy goods? Then you're giving them a discount for nothing, right?"
Jiang Xinbai stretched out his hand and twisted his eldest son's cheek. "As long as Wang Xian sells well in the city, there will always be people looking for it. Are you still worried that your bell-bottom pants won't sell? Don't worry, we're just afraid that there won't be enough to sell."
"Hey, since they're so easy to sell in the city, why don't you and dad go directly to the city to set up a stall and sell them. You can make more money from each one!"
Jiang Xin rolled her eyes at him, "Why do you have to do so much? You have to do everything yourself. Can't you do something else with that time?"
"Xiaobai, Jinsheng, you are at home at the right time, so I am here to share the money with you." At this time, Yang Baocheng walked in directly from outside the door.
As soon as Yang Jinsheng saw his third uncle, he stood up excitedly, poured him a cup of tea and said, "Third brother, sit down and talk. Have you sold all the tape recorders and electronic watches?"
Yang Jiabao leaned close to his brother Yang Jiadong's ear and whispered, "Look at how fawning Dad is. Hehe, he's like a lackey..."
Jiang Xinbai, who had sharp ears, glared at him and threatened, "Hurry up and do your homework. I'll check it later. If you don't do it well, you'll have to eat bamboo shoots and fried pork!"
Yang Jiabao shrank his neck, chuckled twice, then pulled his brother back to the room.
Yang Baocheng smiled and shook his head. "This baby is like me when I was a child, smart. Xiaobai, you should scold him less, don't scold him to the point of being stupid."
"Third brother, please stop flattering him. If he had even a third of your ability, I would be extremely happy."
Jiang Xinbai was speaking from the heart. His third brother was smart since he was young, and he knew what he wanted. He was bold and careful, and he was thorough in his work. Just like this trip to Shenzhen, it was he who took the lead, otherwise they really wouldn't have gone for a while.
"Alright, alright, it's normal for a nephew to look like his uncle. Third brother, let's not talk about that kid. You just said you wanted to share the money. How much did you sell?"
Yang Jinsheng asked impatiently, he thought that the profit from tape recorders and electronic watches must be much greater than that from selling bell-bottom pants!
Seeing that they were anxious, Jiang Baocheng didn't keep them in suspense and said directly: "There are 500 tape recorders, and 450 were actually sold. The remaining 50 were bought at internal prices. Here, we three also got 10, and we will calculate it later. We give a tape with each tape recorder, and it costs 480 yuan per unit, so 450 to 216,000 yuan."
"Hiss, so many? Oh my God, I know a lot, but not so many, I..." Yang Jinsheng was instantly incoherent. He stood up and sat down again, looking like his butt had been stabbed by a stool.
Jiang Xinbai grabbed him and said, "Jinsheng, sit down. You are so old but still so uncalm. Fortunately, it's my third brother, otherwise you would be laughed at to death."
Yang Jinsheng touched his head sheepishly and smiled at Jiang Baocheng, but he saw his wife's hands on her legs shaking. He immediately laughed, "Hey, Xiaobai, you're still talking about me. Look at how your hands are shaking. Haha."
"Ahem, that's enough. I haven't finished yet! Besides, this isn't all ours. It has to be divided among five families!" Jiang Baocheng coughed lightly to draw the attention of Jiang Xinbai and the others back.
"What about the electronic watches, third brother? Please leave some for us. Jiabao and the others want them too." Jiang Xinbai was also thinking of giving one to each of the children in the eldest brother's and second brother's families, as well as the eldest sister's family!
"If you keep it, the internal consumption will be 100 yuan, and we will take 50 yuan. Hehe, you don't have to pay. I will give it to Jiabao and Jiadong."
Jiang Baocheng wanted to keep the rest for gifts, as electronic watches are valuable items to them.
"Hey, how many children does Big Brother have?"
"Don't worry, I have calculated everything, you don't have to worry about it. Let's do the math first. The electronic watch cost 6,000 yuan, and after deducting the internal consumption, it was sold for 5,900 yuan. We sold it for 18 yuan, so the total sales were 106,200 yuan." Jiang Baocheng read out the numbers on the notebook.
Jiang Xinbai couldn't wait any longer, so he took the notebook from Jiang Baocheng and started reading it. "Let me see. Hmm, the recorder's two hundred and sixty-six thousand plus ten thousand equals two hundred and twenty-six thousand, and the electronic watch's one hundred and sixty-two thousand plus five hundred equals one hundred and sixty-seven thousand, a total of three hundred and thirty-two thousand seven. Oh my god, these numbers make me dizzy!"
"Hey, you're dizzy, let me take a look for a while," Yang Jinsheng took the notebook and started to look at it. He had never seen so many numbers before, so he had to take a good look at them.
Jiang Baocheng nodded and said, "That's a lot, but the cost hasn't been deducted yet! Look down."
"No need to read. I'll read it to you. The tape recorder cost 100,000, the electronic watch cost 30,000, plus the shipping fee, the money for buying pirated tapes, and other miscellaneous expenses. The total cost is 145,600. The net profit is 187,100."
"Then if we divide it into five parts, we can get thirty-seven thousand four hundred and twenty, right?" Jiang Xinbai calculated quickly this time, then she came to her husband and looked at the number on the notebook, which matched exactly.
"Hiss, if you calculate it this way, it doesn't seem like a lot, right, Xiaobai? Yesterday we sold 300 sets of floral shirts and bell-bottom pants and made 9,000 yuan. We invested 30,000 yuan in the tape recorder and only made less than 40,000 yuan. I always feel that we still can't make as much as we do from selling clothes."
