Chapter 257 Rongcheng
Rongcheng.
People's Square.
Zheng Hongtao felt a little strange when he saw Tang Wenjie and Tian Can shouting not far away. He could see them selling home appliances almost every two days.
"Have you asked about the department stores in the other four cities?"
Zheng Hongtao looked at his group of friends and asked.
"Brother Tao, we have asked around. It's hard for department stores to supply themselves, so there's no reason to separate home appliances. Especially for rare items like tape recorders and televisions, there's no possibility of separation. After all, each department store only has a limited supply."
"It's the same with Overseas Remittances. It's impossible to give Tang Wenjie and his team a share to sell."
Several people nodded and said.
They asked the people who bought Tang Wenjie's TV sets, and they learned that the TV sets did not require a ticket but cost 700 yuan each, which was also the department store's three guarantees policy.
Zheng Hongtao knew Tang Wenjie. After all, they grew up together. Tang Wenjie had high expenses so he looked down upon ordinary jobs. Even if he could get a salary increase after working as a bus apprentice for half a year, he would not be able to work there for long.
Selling any kind of home appliances nowadays must be very profitable, otherwise people wouldn’t be working so hard.
As a child of the same compound, Zheng Wentao’s daily expenses were not small. Of course, the salary from the unit was not enough, and he often had to ask his family for money.
"Tang Wenjie."
Zheng Hongtao came to Tang Wenjie's stall. At this time, the last TV in the stall had been sold out, and the people who gathered here had left. Tang Wenjie and Tian Can were preparing to close the stall.
"If you have something to say, tell me. If not, don't get in my way."
Tang Wenjie glanced at Zheng Wentao and said, although his tone was not nice, it was nothing, as they were used to greeting each other like this.
Although the two had been fighting since childhood, the relationship between the two families was very good and they could be considered old friends, otherwise Zheng Wentao would not have worried about the two making mistakes and going astray last time.
"I just want to ask you where you got this TV from, and if I can get involved."
Zheng Hongtao looked at Tang Wenjie and said seriously.
"you?"
Tang Wenjie looked Zheng Wentao up and down for a while, which made Zheng Wentao feel a little uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with me? Can't I do what you, Mr. Tang, can do?"
Zheng Wentao said with a pursed lip.
"Invite me to dinner, apologize to me, and tell me that I was wrong all these years, Brother Jie, and I will take you with me."
Tang Wenjie looked at Zheng Hongtao with a sly smile on his face.
"It's impossible for me to apologize to you."
Zheng Hongtao rolled his eyes at Tang Wenjie and was about to turn and leave.
"One thousand dollars a day, are you sure you don't want to apologize?"
Seeing Zheng Hongtao turning around, Tang Wenjie said slowly.
"Master Tang, what did you just say?"
Zheng Hongtao immediately turned around with a flattering smile on his face. One thousand yuan a day is equivalent to two years' salary without food or drink. It is an astronomical figure, and it can be earned in one day. Not to mention calling him Master Tang, you can even call him your ancestor.
"You can earn a thousand dollars a day, are you sure you don't want to apologize?"
Tang Wenjie repeated, the smirk on his face becoming even bigger this time.
"Master Tang, it's my fault for so many years. Today, I'll set up a table at the state-owned restaurant to apologize to you, Brother Jie."
Zheng Hongtao said with a smile.
At this time, not to mention Zheng Hongtao, even the group of people around them were shocked and speechless. They can earn a thousand yuan a day. Will they still worry about not having enough money to spend in the future?
The group followed Tang Wenjie and Tian Can to the warehouse rented by Tang Wenjie. Seeing the two of them dividing the money in great unity, they felt very excited. They had just heard Tang Wenjie say this, but now seeing the scene, the last bit of worry in their hearts was dispelled.
In this game, Tang Wenjie and Tian Can each received 1,200 yuan.
Everyone had a meal together in a state-owned restaurant. Zheng Hongtao complimented the two of them as if they were free, and finally made them happy. They agreed to take them with them when they went to buy goods tomorrow.
Zheng Hongtao walked back home drunk.
The Zheng family is different from the Tang family. Zheng Hongtao is not afraid of his old man. The Zheng family is a grandparent family, but Zheng Wentao's father is still very afraid of him.
"Hong Tao, why are you drunk in the middle of the day?"
Zheng Hongtao's mother felt a little distressed when she saw her son like this.
"Why did you drink at noon?"
A middle-aged man's voice was heard, which immediately frightened Zheng Hongtao and sobered him up a lot.
Having been brought up with leather belts, big leather shoes and snug feet since childhood, Zheng Hongtao is very afraid of his father.
"Dad, Tang Wenjie and I were having dinner at a restaurant, and I couldn't resist the persuasion and had a few drinks."
Zheng Hongtao said it the other way around. It was he who kept raising his glass to toast, but when it came to his father, it became Tang Wenjie who kept persuading him.
"The sun is rising from the west. Can you two wild boys sit together and drink?"
The middle-aged man was a little surprised. He knew his own son well. He had been at odds with the third son of the Tang family since he was a child. They fought from the yard to school, from school to graduation, and after leaving school, they bullied each other and looked down on each other.
"Tang Wenjie is making a lot of money selling home appliances now, and he plans to take me with him."
Zheng Hongtao said with a smile.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man raised a faint smile. The third child of the Tang family is just like the youngest child in his own family. He has no interest in work and spends money lavishly. He can't last more than three months in a job.
They knew about Tang Wenjie selling home appliances, but since the source was legitimate, no one cared where he purchased the goods or how much profit he made from a single television.
Hearing his son's tone, it seemed that he was willing to do it together and probably make a lot of money.
"Don't try to say nice things. I know your relationship. It would be strange if he took the initiative to bring you along."
The middle-aged man smiled and said that although all the workers are unwilling to do business now and are afraid that no one will do it, they already know that the general direction has been determined and they do not object to their children doing business. After all, if you don't want to work, you have to do serious work. What will it be like to be idle all day long?
"Dad, I apologized to him, and he agreed to take me with him. I heard them say that they could earn a thousand yuan per trip, and I also saw that Tang Wenjie and Tian Can indeed earned a thousand yuan in dividends per day."
Zheng Hongtao realized that he couldn't hide it from his father, so he told the truth.
After hearing this, Zheng Hongtao's parents' expressions changed several times. This number was really scary.
“How much capital is needed?”
The middle-aged man knew that his son would not dare to lie to him, so he asked how much capital would be needed. Since his son chose to take this path, he would support him.
"The more the better. The more goods you buy, the more money you will make. The purchase price of a TV is 550 yuan."
Zheng Hongtao said with a smile. After hearing this, the middle-aged man believed that it was true that he could earn 1,000 yuan a day. A TV set costs 700 yuan to buy in the square, and the profit of one set is about 150 yuan. The shipping fee is at least 145 yuan.
As long as seven units are sold a day, the profit mentioned by Zheng Hongtao can be achieved. Considering the large consumer market in Rongcheng, it is easy to sell seven units a day.
