When the others saw what Xu Xiangyang took out, their eyes widened.
It’s not that they haven’t seen it, but these things can only be seen in supply and marketing cooperatives or department stores.
Those all require tickets, and even if you want to buy them, there are no tickets!
"This..." Qian Wenqing was a little surprised and asked, "Brother Xu, how much did you pay for these things? Are they defective?"
He asked this because the tickets were hard to get.
Xu Xiangyang smiled and said, "It's not worth much, it's all normal stuff."
These are all good things. You must not sell them as defective products, otherwise you will lose a lot of money.
The others were surprised by his words and couldn't take their eyes off the things.
Who doesn’t like good things? It’s exciting to look at them twice!
"Brother, how much do you sell these leather shoes for?" asked the woman who had sold bacon to Xu Xiangyang before.
Xu Xiangyang seemed to remember calling her Sister Zhang. "Sister Zhang, these women's leather shoes are 23, and men's leather shoes are 25. No tickets are required."
The price this time is the same as last time I sold it on the black market. It can't be any more expensive here. That would be terrible.
If it's cheaper, you'll suffer a loss.
"These leather shoes are of really good quality." Sister Zhang held the leather shoes and loved the feeling of them more than her hands. She had seen them in department stores, but none of them were as soft as these.
But what she was holding were men's leather shoes, probably something she wanted to buy for her family.
"It's a pity the size is wrong. My wife is a size 43, and this is a size 44." She put down her leather shoes with some regret, turned to look at Xu Xiangyang, and asked, "Do you have any size 43 left?"
To be honest, she really didn't want to miss out on such cheap and high-quality leather shoes.
If you like to buy a pair of leather shoes, you don’t have the tickets, no matter what kind of family you come from.
This thing is a special supply. Generally, tickets are limited, let alone this kind of leather shoes.
Xu Xiangyang shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I only brought two pairs this time. These things are quite expensive."
This was the truth, and no one else thought much about it. After all, both pairs of shoes cost over 40 yuan, and how much was that worth in a month's salary?
If you have too many and can't sell them, it's also a problem. You can't afford to eat because you want to sell these things? That would be too tragic.
No one else was interested. After all, this thing was too expensive, almost as much as a month's salary.
The whole family is waiting to eat, so I can’t buy luxury items like leather shoes.
Brother Li on the side looked at it for a while, then walked over to Xu Xiangyang and said, "Brother, why don't you sell these shoes to me? No one needs them, so I'll keep them."
He thought the leather shoes were pretty good. Some people have money but no tickets, so they like these things that don't require tickets.
And it can also attract some people, because there are no leather shoes here. Besides, leather shoes for twenty yuan are too cheap, and he can sell them for thirty yuan without any problem!
Xu Xiangyang thought about it and realized that he couldn't sell this thing even if he kept it here. The last few pairs of shoes he sold were already very good, and it would be easy to be targeted if he sold it again.
If we could let someone else sell it, maybe we could divert attention.
"Okay, then leave it to Brother Li!" He didn't say much. After all, the other person wanted to make some money, and he also wanted to sell some money. There was no need to hesitate about this deal.
Xu Xiangyang didn't think it was cheap just because he was the leader of the trade fair. After all, money is hard to earn, so why should it be cheap?
This price is already cheap enough, and if people buy it, it proves that there is still profit to be made from these shoes.
Brother Li was in a good mood and put the shoes away and paid the money. No one else asked about the shoes, probably because they didn't have the money to buy them.
But scarves are different!
Several female comrades were looking at his scarf, which cost three yuan each and no ticket was required.
But they are all good things, not defective products, and there is nothing to hesitate about at this price.
Several female comrades shared his scarves and asked him to bring more next time.
Xu Xiangyang thought to himself that this thing would only be sold once or twice, and if he brought too much, people would easily become suspicious.
Although everyone can get good things, if someone can always get good things like him, it would make people suspicious.
So this kind of thing should be done in moderation. It doesn’t matter if you give Brother Li a little more on a regular basis.
After all, you have to know that it was just a matter of fooling one person, how could you fool so many people? It's not easy to make up a lie.
Not all of the things Qian Wenqing brought were sold. After all, at that time everyone still attached great importance to food.
Brother Li has a lot of food here, and everyone comes here for it. He also sold the most in this transaction.
Before leaving, Qian Wenqing handed the luggage bag to Brother Li, "Brother Li, I'm sorry to trouble you with these things."
"What are you talking about? Go back." Brother Li patted his shoulder with a smile, then took the things over.
It was always like this in the past. This was how people dealt with things they couldn’t sell.
Compared to them who have no time, Brother Li has plenty of time and a wide network of contacts, so he can handle anything.
Even if you can't handle it, if you are in urgent need of money, you can just sell it to him and he will resell it.
Brother Li’s position can be described as a middleman, buying things from here and then selling them on the black market to make a profit from the difference.
After leaving the trade fair, Xu Xiangyang and Qian Wenqing separated at the intersection.
This time, letting Brother Li buy the shoes was a kind of friendship. If there was a first transaction, there would be a second one. He understood Brother Li's meaning.
Xu Xiangyang identified the direction and then walked quickly back home.
It was already dark at this time. Except for the street lights on the main road, the alleys were pitch black.
Two days later, Xu Xiangyang found a place to make a phone call and called Feng Jiunian.
Since you want to do it, you might as well make it bigger.
The house issue is very urgent. If we can sell more things at one time, why not do it?
The call was connected quickly. Xu Xiangyang explained who he was looking for and the street person asked him to wait for a moment.
After hanging up the phone, he stood there waiting.
It's like this at this time, at least I can return the call.
Not long after, the phone rang.
"Hello?" A deep voice sounded on the phone.
Xu Xiangyang recognized Feng Jiunian's voice and replied, "Brother Feng, it's me. Su Daqiang, do you remember me?"
The person on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then said, "It's you, brother. Why did you remember to call me? I thought you didn't want to contact me anymore."
Xu Xiangyang chuckled and said, "Brother Feng, what are you talking about? I just finished my work and now I have time. Brother Feng, do you have time recently? Come to our new city and take a look?"
The meaning of his words was very clear. He wanted Feng Jiunian to come over and see if there was any chance for cooperation.
