Chapter 240: Great Wealth

Noon.

Sui Feng Hotel.

Bu Zhongshi and his childhood friend Bu Dajun helped to clean the table. This was not the first time they had done this.

Ever since the day Bu Zhongshi followed his uncle's advice and brought his childhood friend to the county town to learn how to drive, the two have been eating in the restaurant.

One or two meals is fine, but eating here every day would be embarrassing even for your nephew, let alone Bu Dajun who is a layer away from you.

So, from the next day, when Bu Dajun followed Bu Zhongshi to eat, he helped with things within his ability, such as helping to serve dishes, helping to get wine, helping to clean the table and so on.

After helping with the work, I feel much more comfortable and relaxed when eating.

Not only Bu Zhongshi and Bu Dajun did this, but also Deng Changdong and his mother. They accompanied Ou Guofang here to wait for the birth of her baby, and they also came to the restaurant to eat every day. As honest rural people, how could they come here to eat for free every day? It was natural for them to roll up their sleeves and help with the work.

With the help of these new forces, both the two waiters, Zhang Wenjuan and Zhang Wenying, and the two sisters-in-law, Zhang Xiuping and Deng Yunzhen, have a lot more free time than usual.

After the lunch rush, Ou Guofang, who was sitting at the cash register chatting with Zhang Xiuping, suddenly started.

This was several days earlier than Changdong's mother had predicted, which made Deng Changdong panic: "How come it's several days earlier? Is this considered a premature birth?"

Changdong's mother laughed and scolded, "What's the point of premature birth? I just predicted an approximate date based on experience. It's normal to be a few days early. Don't stand there in a daze. Support your wife and get ready to go to the hospital!"

Deng Changdong finally reacted and hurried over to support his wife.

Zhang Xiuping gave them a few instructions and then took them to the maternal and child health care center.

…

Capital city.

Dongfeng Market.

In a private room of a teahouse, two men and one woman were sitting there drinking tea.

One of them is Zhou Shengli, the owner of Ruyi Fresh Fruit Shop.

Another middle-aged man who is about the same age as Zhou Shengli and looks wealthy is named Wang Dadan, the owner of a hardware store in Dongfeng Market.

There is also a woman in her thirties who is dressed fashionably and looks charming. Her name is Tian Chunzhi and she is the owner of a fashion store in Dongfeng Market.

After the waiter left, Tian Chunzhi said, "Lao Zhou, you called me and Lao Wang over here and said that you have a big business to discuss with us. What is it? Can you tell me now?"

Zhou Shengli took a sip of tea and said, "Old Wang, Miss Tian, ​​I have come across the biggest business in my life. If it goes well, it will make me extremely rich. I only called you two here because I want you to have some meat with me, so that you won't say that I am not a good friend."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dabing and Tian Chunzhi could not help but look at each other.

Tian Chunzhi looked at Zhou Shengli and said, "Old Zhou, you are not kidding us, are you?"

Zhou Shengli asked back: "Do you think I'm joking?"

Wang boldly asked, "Old Zhou, don't keep me in suspense. What kind of big business is this?"

"Before we talk business, let me show you something."

As he spoke, Zhou Shengli took out a bunch of longan from a briefcase he carried with him, put it on the table and said, "What kind of fruit is this? You should all know it, right?"

Wang Dabao curled his lips and said, "It's just a longan, what's so special about it?"

Compared with Wang Dadan, Tian Chunzhi was obviously much more careful and said, "This longan is so fresh!"

Seeing that neither of them realized that the big business he was talking about was related to longan, Zhou Shengli was not surprised. If Boss Deng had not explicitly mentioned that the big business was related to longan when he came to see him before, he would not have thought of this.

After all, this is the capital city, and from ancient times to the present, no one has been able to transport longan from thousands of miles away to sell here.

It's not that it's impossible. If we send a special plane to transport it by air, then there will be no problem. But in that case, tofu will be priced like pork, and no one will do such a thing.

Time was tight, so Zhou Shengli stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "Lao Wang, Miss Tian, ​​the big business I mentioned to you is related to this longan. Why don't you try this longan first to see if it is fresh?"

Those who can make a business in this era are naturally smart people. When Wang Dabing and Tian Chunzhi heard Zhou Shengli's obvious hint, they realized something in their hearts and their faces changed instantly.

So, the two of them observed the string of longans on the table and picked one to taste.

“So sweet!”

“So fresh!”

Tian Chunzhi looked at Zhou Shengli and said, "Old Zhou, were these longans flown in from the south?"

Zhou Shengli shook his head and said, "I don't know whether these longans are airlifted from the south. Anyway, I can get a large amount of these fresh longans now. Do you want to do this unique business together?"

Although Wang Dabao was tempted, he still asked calmly: "Old Zhou, what is the purchase price of this longan?"

After all, they were very good friends, so Zhou Shengli did not think about making another profit from them, so he said frankly: "The purchase price is 2 yuan per catty."

Although Tian Chunzhi had never been in the fresh fruit business, as the saying goes, one must have seen pigs run even if he had never eaten pork. Naturally, he knew that the purchase price of 2 yuan per catty for such fresh and delicious longan was not expensive at all. After all, it was transported to the capital from thousands of miles away, and the freight alone accounted for an unknown amount of the cost.

"Old Zhou, you said you could get a large quantity of these fresh longans, but how many can you get?"

Zhou Shengli said: "We can probably get more than 60 tons. If you are interested, we can work together to buy all these longans. With my many years of experience in selling fruit, it is no problem to sell longans of such good quality and freshness at a retail price of 2.5-3 yuan per catty.

If we take over and sell all these longans, the minimum profit will be nearly 100,000 yuan. I will take 40% and you each will take 30%, so each of you will earn at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.

You can earn 20,000 or 30,000 in just a few days. Isn't this a fortune?"

My heart is beating. It is so beating!

At this moment, Wang Dabing and Tian Chunzhi's hearts were pounding. It was not like they had never seen 20,000 or 30,000 yuan before. If they really had to empty their family's savings, they could take out even 80,000 or 100,000 yuan, but that money was their savings of many years.

Now, a big business that can earn twenty or thirty thousand in just a few days is right in front of them. How can they not be tempted?

However, the two of them have experienced many storms and waves, and they both know that the more times like this, the more they need to stay calm.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Tian Chunzhi took a deep breath and said, "Old Zhou, I admit that I am indeed tempted by the business you are talking about, but with a quantity of more than 60 tons, can we sell it all within a few days? This is a question worth considering!

If they can be sold successfully, then the money will definitely be a big profit, but if they can't be sold and they are left in my hands, then the loss will be huge!"

"Sister Tian is right."

Wang Dabao also echoed: "Old Zhou, you have been in the fresh fruit business for so many years. Based on your own judgment, do you think we have the ability to sell so many longans in just a few days?"

Zhou Shengli analyzed: "I think it's okay. This is the first time that longan has appeared in the Beijing market. Facing this famous fruit from the south, many people in Beijing have only heard of it but have never eaten it.

It is indeed more expensive than all other fruits at two or three yuan per pound, but I believe many people are willing to spend the money to try it.

The quantity of more than 60 tons is quite large. If we only sell it in the Dongfeng market, it would be a bit stressful. But if we sell it in partnership, we can mobilize our relatives and friends to help, and divide it into ten or even twenty points. The larger the coverage, the better.

In this way, each point only needs to sell a few thousand kilograms.

And if we divide the sales into several days, we only need to sell a few hundred kilograms a day, and we can even reduce the price later depending on the situation, so there won’t be too much pressure. "

Tian Chunzhi nodded and said, "Old Zhou, you are right. This is a unique business. With the population of our capital, even if only one person out of a hundred is willing to pay for it, we can easily sell this batch of longans.

Even if a portion of it is lost, at most it will not make any money. Compared with the huge returns, I think it is worth taking some risks. "

Wang Dabing also thought about it in his mind and felt that compared with the huge returns, the risk was indeed not too great, so he agreed: "I also think this business can be done."

Zhou Shengli said with a smile, "Since you all agree, let's talk about the investment ratio. The total purchase price of longan is about 250,000 yuan. One tenth of it needs more than 25,000 yuan. You two will each take 30%, and each of you will need to invest about 76,000 yuan. I will take 40%, and I will probably have to invest a little over 100,000 yuan. Is this okay?"

Wang Dabing and Tian Chunzhi responded in unison: "No problem!"

Zhou Shengli nodded and said, "Time waits for no one. Every minute of delay will consume the freshness of the longan, so we have to hurry up. The money must be in place by tomorrow morning at the latest. This should not be difficult for you, right?"

Tian Chunzhi immediately said, "No problem on my side. I'll go back and take out the coffin book and do something big."

Wang Dabao said unyieldingly, "I have no problem with this. I will definitely raise the money even if I have to sell everything I have."

Zhou Shengli glanced at the two guys and said speechlessly, "Enough, you are getting more and more ridiculous. How much wealth do you have? Do you really think I don't know? It's really difficult for me to pay more than 100,000 yuan at once. I have to find someone to raise some money quickly."

Wang Dare smiled and said, "Old Zhou, if you feel the pressure is too great, you can give your 10% to me and Miss Tian. We are both willing to pay a little more."

Tian Chunzhi also laughed and said, "Old Wang is right. If you are under a lot of pressure, Old Zhou, we don't mind helping you relieve the pressure."

"What are you thinking about? If you dare to covet my share, I will kick you out."

"Boss Zhou, I was wrong!"

"I won't do it again!"

“…”

After a few jokes, the three of them talked about some details.

About half an hour later, the three of them walked out of the teahouse and went back to raise money.
