Zheng Song had worked in the security team in Wahou for more than a year. He was not unfamiliar with the Wahou Market and even knew some of the customers here.
From the moment he entered the market, people greeted him, and this continued until he entered the electronics market.
"Oh! Isn't this Zheng...Zheng what? Why do I feel like I haven't seen you for a long time?"
"I've been in the north for about a year and a half. Where can you visit me?"
"Why are you back again, working as a security guard?"
Zheng Song shook his head: "I'm not a security guard anymore. I'm going to do some business."
While Zheng Song was chatting with an acquaintance, Zang Yunli had already walked to a stall and placed the learning machine in her hand on the stall.
"Boss! Do you sell learning machines?"
When the boss saw a beautiful woman wearing a red ski jacket and a white fur collar coming to his stall, he immediately felt refreshed.
But when he saw the learning machine packaged in a cardboard box, he frowned.
The cover of the box is printed with a white learning machine with a cassette inserted.
Unfortunately, the old lady boss didn’t know what an electric baton was and what it was.
"Is this a learning machine? For learning something?"
"You don't even know what a learning machine is? Hongya TV has been advertising it for several days. Bohai TV will start broadcasting it tonight, and the provincial TV station will also broadcast it in two days."
The stall owner had some idea of what was going on: "Is that the thing that can be used as a computer?"
Zang Yunli nodded.
"But at our age, there's nothing much to learn."
"It's useless to you. Your children are useless too. If you don't have children, it's really useless."
"Hey! How can you talk like that? Who doesn't have children?"
Zheng Song walked over at this time: "Old Wu! Why are you so angry?"
"Xiao Zheng! You're here."
Zheng Song patted Zang Yunli's shoulder and said, "My fiancée just came from Longjiang and is not very good at talking. Brother Wu, please bear with her."
Zheng Song followed Wan Feng outside for a year and a half, and learned some skills to speak differently to different people.
"Your partner! You're just talking nonsense. What's wrong with your learning machine?"
Two people from the stall next to Old Wu also came over to listen to Zheng Song's storytelling.
"Have you seen the TV commercial for this learning machine? Remember the slogan: For your children's future?"
Zheng Song took a learning machine and pointed at the slogan on the cover.
"Is this the learning machine that was advertised?" someone who was gathered around interrupted.
"The learning machine is made by the Nanwan Electronics Factory. I don't need to say anything about the quality. My cousin already has motorcycles running around the streets, so making something like this is a piece of cake. My cousin said that the future is the world of computers. In ten years, computers will be in ordinary people's homes. Computer-related careers will be a golden industry. It's better than farming or working in a factory. Not only your children, but everyone's children will be useless if they don't know how to use computers in the future."
Some people around him followed suit regardless of whether they understood it or not.
The key point is that this guy keeps calling his cousin, as if he is afraid that others don’t know that he has a cousin.
Everyone who knows Zheng Song knows who his cousin is. These people may not look down on Zheng Song, but no one dares to look down on his cousin.
His cousin is so amazing. The Wahou Market on which they depend for survival was built by his cousin single-handedly.
Therefore, no one can match Wan Feng's prestige in Jiangwei.
You may not believe what Zheng Song says, but you must believe what his cousin says.
"But everyone knows how much a computer costs these days. An average computer costs around 20,000 yuan, which basically cuts off the opportunity for children of ordinary people like us to learn computers. My cousin developed this learning machine so that children of ordinary people can use computers and become familiar with them as soon as possible. It has built-in video communication and can be connected to black and white and color TVs, so your children can learn computers at home. Do you understand?"
Some nodded, while others remained expressionless.
But generally speaking, more people understand it.
"My wife and I are now the general agents of this learning machine. To be honest, there are many distributors from other places who have already sold it. After all, I worked as a security guard at the Wahou market for over a year. If there is an opportunity to make a fortune, of course I will help my fellow villagers first. So, my wife and I came here to ask if anyone is interested in doing it. If you don't come back, I will contract it out to someone from outside the area."
They are all in business, and these people know what the general agent does.
"Xiao Zheng! So, how much does this thing retail for? How much does it wholesale for? And how much are you giving us?"
"The price of these learning machines is fixed by the Nanwan Electronics Factory. The national retail price is 515 yuan. Do you see the 515 printed on the lid of this box?"
Zheng Song pointed to the three numbers 515 circled by an explosion symbol on the lid of the box.
"The national unified surprise price is 515 yuan."
"What about wholesale? We can't sell it to retailers at 515 yuan, right?"
Don't shout this out loud, don't let outsiders hear it.
Zheng Song led the stall owners to a secluded corner and said in a low voice, "First of all, let me make it clear that this price was not set by me, but by my cousin. The wholesale price to retailers is 405 yuan."
Even if the sky falls, my cousin will hold it up. Zheng Song put all the blame on Wan Feng.
"Ah! The retailer has a profit of one hundred and ten dollars?"
Isn't this nonsense? Every new electronic product is never cheap when it comes out.
"And what about the one you gave us?"
"The price I'm giving you is 385 yuan, and you'll make a profit of 30 yuan on each learning machine."
For wholesalers, this profit is already quite high.
When Zheng Song sells this price to wholesalers, he only makes a profit of 20 to 30 yuan, which is not even as high as those wholesalers.
The factory price is 360 yuan.
"If anyone wants to sell, just tell me the number. I'm going to go around this market today and ask every store. If I'm an agent, I'm an agent. If I miss this opportunity, I'll miss it forever. If you don't want it today, even if you come to my house tomorrow to beg me, it'll be useless. Brother Wu! You take the lead, don't you?"
Wu Ge thought for a moment and asked, "What's the minimum purchase amount?"
"Learning machines are expensive after all, and if we order too many, it'll be a problem for everyone to keep their funds flowing. Let's start with ten."
Ten learning machines cost more than 3,800 yuan, which is not too outrageous for some wholesalers.
"Xiao Zheng! Then I'll order ten units first and see if this thing can open up the market."
Zang Yunli took out the notebook swiftly.
"Electronic Market Area 1, No. 6, ten learning machines."
Zheng Song was muttering while Zang Yunli was writing it down in a notebook.
