◎Not back yet?◎
After the train started, Jiang Che saw that everyone had sat firmly in their seats, so he leaned over to Wei Xuan's ear and whispered, "I'm going to go out for a while, you just sit still and don't move."
Wei Xuan didn't think much about it and thought he was going to the bathroom.
He replied: "Go ahead, I'm not a child, don't worry about me."
Because Wei Xuan and Jiang Che's seats were at the innermost window seats, if Jiang Che wanted to get out, he had to step over the three passengers in the same row with him.
Fortunately, people are generally thin these days, otherwise it would be really difficult to squeeze it out.
Less than ten minutes later, Jiang Che came back. He didn't go in either. Instead, he stood in the aisle and motioned Wei Xuan to pick up her luggage and follow him.
Wei Xuan half stood up in confusion: "Where are you going?"
"I've already talked to the flight attendant and bought a sleeper ticket. Let's go. Hand me the luggage first."
...
...
Well, luckily they didn’t have much stuff. Wei Xuan took out the only bag from under the seat and handed it to Jiang Che, then she squeezed out from the seat inside.
Jiang Che freed up one hand to pull her forward. Wei Xuan didn't expect that Jiang Che would actually bring her to the soft sleeper compartment.
She looked at him in surprise: "OK, it's not a hard sleeper, how did you do it?"
How is it possible? Money makes the world go round!
Jiang Che replied proudly: "Don't worry about how I did it. Are you tired? Lie down and rest for a while."
"Okay." Wei Xuan lay down as she was told. To be honest, she didn't feel tired at all thanks to Jiang Che clearing the way for her all the way here. But who would want to sit when they can lie down?
Seeing her lying down, Jiang Che also sat on the edge of the bed, leaning against the pillar at the end of the bed.
For a while, the two of them just sat there quietly without saying a word. There were four beds in this box, but the upper and lower bunks on the other side were empty, so for the time being, there were only the two of them in the box.
Section 84
After a while, Wei Xuan asked tentatively: "Jiang Che, last time you said that you found a promising industry, are you referring to cargo transportation?"
Jiang Che was surprised for a moment, then turned to look at Wei Xuan: "How did you find out?"
"I didn't need to find out about this. Last night at dinner, you caught up with Brother Xue and asked him if his transport team was busy and if they had a lot of business. You also asked him if they had any second-hand trucks to sell. After asking so many questions, I don't believe you if you say you have no ulterior motives."
"Hehe." Jiang Che smiled at Wei Xuan ingratiatingly: "Then, wife, do you think it's okay for me to do this?"
This is great. The transportation industry is also known as logistics, including express delivery companies that will emerge due to the Internet. This is a very large sector.
It will indeed have great development prospects as Jiang Che expected.
As long as he does well and can gain a foothold in this industry, Jiang Che's dream of making a career will be truly realized.
Then, Wei Xuan asked Jiang Che: "Have you figured out what to do?"
No matter how promising this industry is, you still need to have the ability to gain a firm foothold, so Wei Xuan really wanted to know what Jiang Che was thinking. Or rather, she wanted to know whether Jiang Che was just thinking about it or had already made a careful plan.
Did Jiang Che have a plan? No, but he was not just thinking about it.
This idea came to me after I went to the electrical appliance wholesale market that day.
He originally wanted to learn more about the electrical appliance industry that day, but he unexpectedly discovered why the price of the same thing would vary so much depending on the region.
Of course, imported products are an exception. This is caused by the technological gap and cannot be eliminated for the time being.
As far as the domestic situation is concerned, let’s take Pengcheng and Beijing as an example. Some things are very cheap in Pengcheng, but why are the prices several times higher, or even dozens of times higher, when they are moved to Beijing?
Information asymmetry is one reason, but besides that, is there another reason, which is inconvenient transportation?
It was as if every year Brother Wei could buy fruits from the villagers at a very cheap price, but when these fruits were transported to the city they became rare goods and were sold at very high prices.
why is that?
The first reason is that in the eyes of rural people, those fruits are very common and worthless. This is the so-called information gap.
The second reason is that they themselves are unable to transport those things out and sell them, and now there are people willing to buy them. Even if the money offered is not much, they will be satisfied as long as they have income.
But if one day, these villagers knew the value of these fruits, would they still choose to sell them to Brother Wei at a low price? No, they would either raise the price or choose to sell them themselves.
Therefore, from this point of view, Jiang Che feels that the transportation industry has great market prospects, especially as society becomes more and more advanced and people's cognition gradually improves, the demand for this industry will also become greater and greater.
When Wei Xuan asked him this question, he did not answer her immediately. Instead, he sorted out his thoughts in his mind before speaking: "Here's what I think. We don't have much cash now, so we should sell used cars first, one or two will do. There won't be much work at the beginning, so I'll go to the train station to take some odd jobs. After a while, my reputation will spread, and naturally there will be business coming to us. When I have extra money, I will buy a new car. As for applying for a business license, there is no rush. I'll do it when I have more cars or start hiring employees."
Wei Xuan nodded, thinking that his plan was good, but she wondered if it would be too tiring.
"In a few months, when I'm pregnant, all the store affairs will be on you alone. Can you handle so many things?"
Jiang Che certainly thought about whether he should wait until his wife gave birth before considering buying a car, but in fact, the grain store has already grown to a certain scale, so there is no need to keep an eye on it every day. In addition, the newly opened clothing store has the third sister watching over it, so they don't need to worry too much. Just like they are away from home for half a month now, isn't the store in chaos?
The only thing that might take time is the account book, which won't take long. He can free up his hands to do other things.
Seeing that Jiang Che had made up his mind, Wei Xuan had no choice but to support him.
"Then let's wait until next month. Right now all the money in the family is tied up in the clothing store, so we can't afford to buy a car for the time being."
Jiang Che said, "Don't worry, I have to go to the train station first to see what's going on. And don't forget that I still have 150 watches to sell. I plan to ask Wu Ge if he wants them. If he wants them, I'll give them all to him at a discount so I don't have to spend time selling them one by one."
He could definitely make more money by doing retail himself, but his wife is pregnant now, so he has to help out more in the store. Compared to his wife's health, that little money is nothing.
Wei Xuan didn't care about these things and just let him handle it himself.
As they chatted, time passed by unknowingly and it was noon. Jiang Che went to the dining car and bought two meals. After the meal, Jiang Che watched Wei Xuan take a nap.
The next morning at eight o'clock, the train arrived in Beijing on time.
After getting off the train, the two ran straight home to put down their things, took a shower, cleaned the house, had lunch, and then went to the store.
Jiang Che sent Wei Xuan there, and went to Cheng Shao's house to see if they had returned. According to the time, they had left one night earlier than him, so they should have arrived, but when Jiang Che came over, he couldn't find anyone, and Bian Qianqian also said that Cheng Shao hadn't returned yet.
Fearing that something might happen to them, Jiang Che called the transport team again, but they also said Xue Bin was out on a bus and not in the team. Unable to find him, Jiang Che had no choice but to go back to the store.
Wei Xuan went to the clothing store and looked around. Now she is sitting in the grain store counting the accounts. She has not been back for half a month. Even though Wang Xiaomei has counted the daily accounts, she still has to verify them again before she can feel at ease.
Seeing Jiang Che coming back so soon, Wei Xuan was surprised: "Didn't you go to look for Cheng Shao? Didn't you find him?"
"No," Jiang Che shook his head, "Maybe he was delayed on the way. I'll go check it out in the evening."
"Well," seeing his frown, Wei Xuan comforted him, "Don't worry, don't you still have to go to Wu Ge to discuss the watch? It's getting late, so go quickly. When you come back, I should have almost settled the bill. We still have to go pick up our daughter together in the evening."
"Okay, I'll be leaving first. Be careful on your own. If anything happens, go find Third Sister."
"Go ahead, what can I do in the store?"
Wei Xuan really had nothing to do. After looking at the account book, she chatted with Wang Xiaomei about the store's recent situation for a while and then went next door.
The clothing store business has always been good, especially after Wei Xuan adjusted the styles, the business has reached a new level.
It was definitely worse than the first three days of opening, but during the short time that Wei Xuan stayed here, there was always a constant stream of people.
Third Sister Jiang finally sent a customer away. Seeing that no one came in for the time being, she walked over to Wei Xuan and told her in detail what had happened in the store during that time.
It wasn't a big deal, just some daily stuff. Wei Xuan said she understood after hearing it, and then asked her, "How did the two newcomers perform?"
"It's pretty good. Wang Jiajia is attentive and Li Mei is enthusiastic. They are both very smart girls."
"That's good." The clothing store is different from the grain store. They hire pretty young girls, including Zhang Daya. Wei Xuan has already discussed with her and asked her to stay in the clothing store to work. She agreed. After all, the salary is the same, so she has no reason to object.
Jiang Che came to Wu Yun to discuss the electronic watch matter and things were going smoothly.
Electronic watches are still a rare commodity in Beijing. Jiang Che is willing to sell them to Wu Yun for RMB 1.50, which is literally sending money to Wu Yun. He can then add RMB 20 to the price and the watches will sell very well.
After the discussion, Wu Yun wanted to invite Jiang Che to dinner, but Jiang Che declined.
"I just got home. I agreed to go home for dinner later. Let's do it next time. We can get together again next time if we have the chance."
Hearing that he was busy, Wu Yun did not force him: "Okay, next time."
He personally escorted Jiang Che to the door. Jiang Che stopped and said, "Don't send me off. Brother Wu, I'll bring the things to you tomorrow. I'll leave first."
Jiang Che came out from Wu Yun's place and rode his bicycle back to the store to pick up Wei Xuan. The two of them first went back to the sixth floor to pick up the things they brought for their family before riding towards Jiang's house.
As soon as I arrived at the Jiang family’s door, I saw my daughter playing at the door next door.
Jiang Che shouted over there: "Yuanyuan."
Yuanyuan heard the familiar voice and turned around in surprise. Seeing that it was her parents who came back, she didn't care about the boy.
He said goodbye to his companion and ran towards Jiang Che and the others with his short legs.
Jiang Che was afraid that she would bump into his wife, so he stopped her in front and picked her up. Yuanyuan didn't notice her father's intention, but laughed happily.
The family of three walked into the house talking and laughing. Jiang's father and mother, who were sitting in the main room, also smiled when they saw the two of them come back.
