Chapter 261 Zheng Hongtao
Three days passed in a flash.
On this day, Zheng Hongtao and Tang Wenjie came to Zhao Yi's restaurant as usual to watch the fun. The two little guys would make some little trouble almost every day to make Zhang Jing angry.
A few people just sat down to eat breakfast.
"You two wait for me. Your father will be home today. If you don't come back early after school, I will break your legs."
The two little guys took their pocket money and disappeared with their schoolbags.
Just as Zhang Jing was about to walk back to the yard, she saw two trucks driving over. She looked towards the cab and saw Zhao Yi sitting in the passenger seat. Immediately, a smile appeared on Zhang Jing's face.
"The head of the family."
Zhang Jing shouted happily.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Hongtao and his group immediately stood up and walked towards the truck.
At this time, the truck stopped steadily at the door of the department store and Zhao Yi got off.
Several porters also came down and waited for Zhao Yi's arrangements.
"Move these to the second floor first, and leave these where they are. I'll have to trouble you to ship these to Rongcheng."
Zhao Yi looked at the driver and said.
"OK."
A driver nodded immediately when he heard Zhao Yi say this.
Several porters immediately began to unload the goods. Zhao Yi would of course not move the goods back home and then move them out, as that would be very troublesome. So he would just clear the goods at the original location so that Tang Wenjie and the others could take them away immediately.
If we just put them in the car and take them away, and Tang Wenjie comes back and asks who should be responsible for the loss if one or two are missing, it would be best to count them in person.
Looking at the forty televisions and several tape recorders placed on the ground, Zheng Hongtao's smile never stopped.
They bought twenty televisions and several tape recorders. The profit this time was calculated, a total of more than 3,000 yuan. According to Tang Wenjie, they could sell them all in one day. If four people shared 3,000 yuan, they would earn several hundred yuan a day. If they worked in the office, it would take who knows how long it would take to save up enough money.
"Brother Yi, we will go back first and come back after the goods are sold."
Zheng Hongtao greeted Zhao Yi happily, and they all jumped into the truck's cargo box, urging the driver to hurry to Rongcheng.
The few of them broke up as soon as they arrived in Rongcheng. Tang Wenjie was going to the square to sell televisions, and they certainly couldn't sell them nearby. Not only would this affect each other, it would also affect the spread of news. So they chose to go to the nearest East District.
The East District is where Rongcheng has the most factories, and there are quite a few workers here.
Zheng Hongtao had just placed the TV at the entrance of the square when his family had already received the news.
"This brat finally did something serious."
Father Zheng Hongtao spoke in a low voice while listening to the secretary's report.
"Don't report his affairs to me. We are busy with our work, so how can we have time to listen to his house games?"
The secretary saw that although his leader said this, the smile on his face was not fake. He said that he didn't care, but he was worried about him in his heart.
Eastern District.
Entrance to the square.
"Comrade, are you selling this TV?"
Some brave people stepped forward and asked.
"Yes."
Zheng Hongtao smiled and nodded.
"When I went to the central district before, I heard that they were selling TV sets without tickets. I went there several times but was always late and missed the chance. I guess your TV set doesn't need a ticket either."
The brave man in the crowd continued to ask.
"No tickets are needed but the price is 100 yuan more expensive. A TV is 700 yuan, and the tape recorder is 235 yuan. We guarantee repair, replacement and refund. If there is any problem within one year, we will not repair it and will just give you a new one."
Zheng Hongtao nodded in response.
When the crowd heard Zheng Hongtao say this, they suddenly became a little agitated.
Many people hurried back home. There were only twenty televisions on the ground. If they came too late, they would be gone.
After a while, someone came back panting and handed the money in his hand to Zheng Hongtao for counting.
A TV was sold easily like this, and I got one hundred and fifty dollars for it.
Then people came one after another, and soon all twenty TV sets were sold out.
However, a few of them were still surrounded by the crowd.
"Comrade, do you have this TV set? I'd like to reserve it for you."
"Reservations are hard to make. I don't even know where you live, and you don't even know me. If we don't come after you take the money, won't your money just go down the drain?"
Zheng Hongtao waved his hand. It was true that he liked money, but he would not take on anything that was impossible to do, and he would not do anything that was against the law.
"Comrade, my house is just ahead. I'll take you there. If you come directly to my house tomorrow, I'll give you an extra twenty dollars as a reward. Is that okay?"
A woman pulled Zheng Hongtao and said.
"Don't worry, don't be anxious. We will come to sell TVs as long as it doesn't rain and there is no delay. Today we only brought 20 sets, which is a bit too few. Tomorrow afternoon, we will bring more. Just come early and prepare the money."
Zheng Hongtao looked at the crowd and shouted loudly, but there was no point in shouting. If he whispered, he wouldn't be able to hear anyone because of the chattering of everyone.
"Comrade, can you get a free washing machine here? I want to buy one."
"Not yet. I'll bring you one sometime in the future. If you really want to buy it, you may have to wait half a month."
Zheng Hongtao said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll come over to buy a TV tomorrow."
Zheng Hongtao arranged everyone, turned around and led his good friends back home. Everyone had no plan to divide the profits now. It was best to bundle them together now, and then separate them when the business gradually grew bigger.
After returning home, I washed up, changed into clean clothes, and rushed to the Transportation Department.
Tang Wenjie and his friends usually spend another day in the city before going to purchase goods, but they can't wait even a moment.
He arrived at the area overnight and came to Zhao Yi's door.
"Is Brother Yi at home?"
Zheng Hongtao knocked on the gate and shouted.
"Here I come, here I come. Who is it in the middle of the night?"
Zhao Yi was speechless. It was already two o'clock in the morning.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the smiling faces of Zheng Hongtao and others.
"Didn't you just leave this morning? Why are they sold out so quickly?"
Zhao Yi was a little confused.
"Well, I just don't have enough money on hand. Otherwise, I would have bought more goods to save the trouble of running back and forth."
Zheng Hongtao smiled.
"By the way, Brother Yi, can you get into the washing machine?"
Zheng Hongtao said as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Maybe there are not many people who buy washing machines, so I didn't buy one."
Zhao Yi nodded and said.
Washing machines are just a thing of appearance. Nowadays, few people are willing to buy one. Zhao Yi is too lazy to make one and might not be able to sell one in a month.
"Then I'll tell you the quantity after I receive the deposit?"
Zheng Hongtao looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
"Of course, if you receive a deposit, that's totally fine."
Zhao Yi nodded. Anyway, he brought them all at once. Zhao Yi didn't expect that Zheng Hongtao was better at business than Tang Wenjie and actually made reservations with others.
"OK."
As Zheng Hongtao spoke, he counted the money and handed it to Zhao Yi.
The profit this time was enough for them to buy five more televisions. They went upstairs and carried the televisions to the truck under Zhao Yi's counting. After the number was enough, they gave Zhao Yi a pack of cigarettes and left with a smile.
