The woman's name was Hong Hua, and Wan Feng knew it without asking.
Her boyfriend's name is Gao Feng.
This was not what Wan Feng asked, but the owner's name was on the business license and cultural license hanging on the wall.
"Aren't you selling fertilizer behind the supply and marketing cooperative?" Wan Feng asked in surprise.
"Yes! Do you know me?"
"I bought fertilizer at the supply and marketing cooperative." Wan Feng said this nonsense. He didn't buy fertilizer. Anyway, Hong Hua met many people, so it wasn't surprising that others knew her.
Wan Feng picked out ten CDs.
"Boss, how much is a CD?"
"Twenty yuan a copy, you want all of these?"
Wan Feng nodded.
"I'll give you two dollars off that one."
Wan Feng took out 180 yuan and put it on the counter.
"You should get some home appliances for your shop. You can make more money selling home appliances than renting out DVDs."
In 1999, the home appliance market was opened. It might be because Wulu was relatively close to Hongya City, or it might be because there were wholesale home appliances in Wahou Market, so no one in Wulu Town sold home appliances.
"Will it work? There are wholesalers of home appliances at Wahou Market. I'm afraid I won't be able to sell them here." The owner Gao Feng shook his head.
"There's also a price difference when selling home appliances wholesale at the Wahou market. They clearly separate retail and wholesale, so you can just profit from that difference. Also, fertilizer will be legal in two years, so you can switch to selling fertilizer."
In 2001, China joined the WTO and the fertilizer market began to open up to foreign investment, as well as to domestic individuals, who were allowed to operate fertilizer businesses.
Honghua is unclear about the opening of fertilizers: "Can it be opened?"
"Of course I can!" Wan Feng said with certainty.
"Selling fertilizers is a high-cost, low-profit business. Without hundreds of thousands of yuan, it's impossible to make a living. We're just thinking about it."
"There are actually many profitable businesses. The DVD rental business won't last more than three years. It's better to start another business soon."
Gao Feng was thinking while eating: "Big Brother, what will be the most profitable business in the future?"
"That depends on how much money you want to make. If your annual goal is around 100,000, then the two businesses I just mentioned are both suitable. If your goal is around 200,000, then you can consider selling mobile phones, but this requires courage."
Why does selling mobile phones take courage?
The current market retail price of mobile phones has dropped to around three to four thousand. With the emergence of the 3G era and a large number of copycat phones, there will soon be a wave of large cliff-like price cuts. When 3G phones appear, the price of 2G phones will drop to three or two hundred.
At this time, if the retailers cannot handle it well, they may lose money.
But times of great chaos are also times of great opportunity.
If you can grasp the rules of this trend, it is entirely possible to make a small fortune from it.
"Selling mobile phones? But Jiangwei already has a company that makes mobile phones. It will be difficult to sell mobile phones in Wulu." Gao Feng was still not optimistic.
His personality is very similar to Wan Feng's in his previous life. He is cautious and indecisive in doing things.
"Like I said, there's a price difference between wholesale and retail. You just need to make a reasonable profit from the difference. If you want to sell, you can come find me at Jiangwei."
As he spoke, Wan Feng took out a business card and placed it on the counter, then picked up the CD he had bought and walked out of the store.
"Who is he?" Hong Hua asked her man.
"I don't know him. This is his first time coming to our store." Gao Feng said as he picked up the business card that Wan Feng left on the counter.
"Bohai Nanwan Group, Wanfeng! Wanfeng? This name sounds so familiar."
"You idiot, you don't even know Boss Wan, no wonder your business is not doing well."
After his wife mentioned it, Gao Feng suddenly realized it.
"Holy crap! A big shot came to our store today. No wonder he bought ten CDs without even asking for the price."
"They have plenty of money, so they won't care about a hundred or eighty."
"Come on, I've seen people who are stingy the richer they are. Hey, wife! What's the point of someone like Boss Wan talking to me about business for so long?"
"How would I know what that means? I have to go sell the goods. Watch my son. If he gets lost, I'll sell you."
After saying this, Hong Hua went to the backyard to sell fertilizer.
Li Da stayed in Phoenix Mountain for a day, and returned to Nandawan the next day and stayed there for another day. During this time, he met with his former colleagues and his subordinates.
On August 28, Li Dazhao set out to return to Hengren.
Wan Feng, Han Guangjia, Wen Zhongguo and three other newcomers followed Li Da to Hengren.
Yang Jianguo is with Cheng Gong in Shenzhen, and He Youliang is protecting Gu Hongzhong in Nanzui.
Han Meng stayed at home to help Zhao Gang manage the business. It was impossible for Zhao Gang to always manage the business of three people at home, even if the three of them were as close as a family.
In a few years, Han Guangjia will be old and it will be impossible for him to always follow Wan Feng around.
Therefore, Han Guangjia selected several young special forces soldiers from the security company to follow Wan Feng.
It was more than 900 miles from Hongya to Hengren. Seven people and two Xiongfeng motorcycles driven by two skilled young men took Wan Feng from Hongya to Hengren in five hours.
Wan Feng's eyes were dazzled. The car was driving so fast that it was almost like a rally race.
Hengren, a remote small county town, is about the same size as Hongya ten years ago. Most of the buildings on the market are still the old low-rise ones, with only a few newly built relatively high-rise buildings. The population is about 100,000.
The main roads in the city have been paved, but some branch roads are still sandy roads, and dust flies up when people walk on them.
After checking in and having dinner at Hengren's best hotel, he, accompanied by Li Da, went directly to the Hengren Electric Motor Factory contracted by Li Da's son Li Xianrong.
The car stopped in an open space outside the factory gate, and Wan Feng and his group got out of the car and entered the factory gate.
Li Da also greeted the night watchman.
The old-style factory building has almost the entire factory area visible at a glance from the main gate.
The factory covers an area of about 2,000 square meters, and is built with a row of houses and a blast furnace.
These houses are at least thirty years old, and the only new buildings are the colored steel houses built against the wall.
Wan Feng frowned when he saw this factory. He hadn't seen this old-style factory for a long time.
The old-style courtyard that has been preserved the longest in Jiangwei is probably the old brigade that was demolished and rebuilt last year, and now it has become history.
As soon as the working hours arrived, workers on bicycles entered the factory gate in twos and threes, each of them looking listless.
"These workers haven't been paid for two months," said Li Da.
"Where's your son?"
"It'll be a while."
As soon as Li Da finished speaking, an AX100 motorcycle rumbled towards them from afar and finally turned into the gate of the motor factory.
