Chapter 99: Making a Fortune in Quiet Places

◎I accidentally picked up a great bargain◎

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else. I came to you today to remind you to get rid of this batch of goods as soon as possible. The longer you delay, the greater the risk." Jiang Che said as he touched his pocket and said, "By the way, I will pay half of the transportation fee from Angkor yesterday."

Cheng Shao jumped up immediately after hearing this: "Brother Jiang, is it that serious? You have to settle it with me. If it weren't for you, I would be trapped in Yangcheng with my goods. You helped me so much, but I still asked you for transportation fees. What would I be like? People would laugh at me if they told others about it."

Jiang Che had already taken out the money. Seeing how excited he was, he looked up at him and said, "Don't waste time on how much money it is. I'll give it to you. I still have to go pick up your sister-in-law later."

Cheng Shao's face turned red, he didn't know whether he was angry or ashamed, he said bluntly: "Brother Jiang, if you do this, you are looking down on your brothers." He was haggling with him over such a small amount of money, which meant he didn't treat him as a brother.

Jiang Che paused for a moment while counting the money. In fact, Cheng Shao really misunderstood Jiang Che. Jiang Che just didn't want to take advantage of others, no matter who it was. Only by calculating the money clearly, there would be no awkwardness in the future.

But seeing that Cheng Shao had said something like this, he couldn't force him any further. If he continued, he was afraid that his brother would really not be able to continue. Jiang Che took the money and comforted him, "Okay, I won't mention it anymore. By the way, do you have any idea how to sell your radio? Sell it out sooner and get the money in pocket." If the price goes down, it will be a waste of money and you will be back to the days before liberation.

Talking about business, Cheng Shao sat back in his seat and said calmly, "I know. Don't worry, Brother Jiang. I've thought about it. I used to trade grain and I know a lot of old customers. They all have money. As long as I spread the word, there will definitely be a lot of people who want to buy my goods. With the little stuff I have left, it won't be difficult to sell it."

Jiang Che felt relieved after hearing this. Radios were still a rare commodity in Beijing, and one had to have a ticket to buy one. So when Cheng Shao said there was a way, Jiang Che didn't ask any more questions.

...

...

"Okay, as long as you have a plan, it has to be quick." After saying that, Jiang Che stood up and patted the dust on his pants that had been stained with dust from some unknown time: "Then I'll go home first." When he walked to Cheng Shao's side, he couldn't help but look him up and down: "After dinner, you should clean yourself up. How long has it been since you last shaved?"

Cheng Shao touched his face awkwardly. He had been sleeping in the open air all the way, so he didn't care about whether he had a beard or not. It was good enough to have a full stomach. If it weren't for Wu Yun's ability, he might not have been able to return safely.

Seeing Cheng Shao was still sending him off, Jiang Che held his shoulder and pointed at Bian Qianqian who was walking towards them in the yard with a bowl and chopsticks in her hand: "Don't send me off. It's getting late. Let's eat first..."

Bian Qianqian was about to enter the main hall when she saw Jiang Che had left, so she asked Cheng Shao, "What were you two talking about?"

"Nothing, just stopped by to chat." Cheng Shao took the bowl and chopsticks from her and started eating. He hadn't eaten for nearly a day and a night, and he was starving.

Seeing Cheng Shao was busy eating and didn't mention the pile of radios in his room, Bian Qianqian couldn't hold it in any longer. She walked to the chair next to Cheng Shao and sat down. She propped her chin with both hands, stared at him with sparkling eyes, and asked, "Tell me quickly, how come you brought back so many radios? What did you do on this trip to Yangcheng?"

She wanted to ask these questions last night when the man woke her up when he came home, but she held back when she saw his tired face. He didn't wake up this morning either, and now she finally had the chance to ask him clearly. Bian Qianqian was extremely curious.

Hearing this, Cheng Shao swallowed the food in his mouth. He felt less uncomfortable with something filling his stomach. He was in the mood to talk to his wife about the trip to the south.

The two of them talked about everything from getting off the train to meeting Cai Jiahuai, and the series of events that followed. One listened carefully, and the other spoke seriously.

Half an hour later, he finally finished talking, and the rice in Cheng Shao's hand was almost cold.

After hearing this, Bian Qianqian had many more questions in her mind, the most important of which was: "How much money did you make this time?"

"Hehe," Cheng Shao laughed evilly, raised his head and said loudly, "You do the math yourself. One radio costs 75 yuan, and there are 200 radios in total. Calculate how much money you can make from selling them."

Bian Qianqian actually calculated it seriously. Now a radio in Beijing sells for about 180 yuan, which is half the price of the purchase price. If all of them are sold... wouldn't she be able to make 10,000 or 20,000 yuan? !

Oh my god, this is going to be rich! Bian Qianqian looked straight at her counting hands, and after a moment she reacted and looked at Cheng Shao excitedly: "I have made so much in just half a month, even robbing money is not so fast..."

Cheng Shao covered her mouth with his hand and said, "What are you talking about? Don't tell anyone about this, okay? You'll attract thieves." The world outside is not safe nowadays, so it's better to hide your money.

Bian Qianqian nodded immediately, indicating that she would keep her mouth shut and not say anything. She was the best at making a fortune in silence.

She noticed that there was still a lot of rice left in Cheng Shao's bowl, so she asked flatteringly, "Are you full? Do you want me to go to the kitchen and heat up some rice for you?"

"Okay." Only after he had eaten and drunk enough would he have the energy to go out and find buyers to sell his goods.

Jiang Che didn't know that Cheng Shao and his wife were settling accounts at home in broad daylight. If he knew, he would be surprised that Cheng Shao worked so hard but only earned a little more than he did by buying watches.

It was so easy for him to sell watches. He didn't have to worry about anything. He just sold all the watches to Wu Yun. The rest had nothing to do with him. But Cheng Shao was different. From receiving the goods to transporting and selling them, he did everything himself.

Of course, Jiang Che had no way of knowing how much money Cheng Shao made on this trip. Conversely, Cheng Shao also had no idea how much money Jiang Che made from selling electronic watches.

Therefore, no one was destined to discover that Jiang Che was the biggest winner of this business.

Jiang Che, who had accidentally gotten a great bargain, returned to the store and gave the money to Wei Xuan, asking her to put it together with yesterday's sales and deposit it at the post office later.

Wei Xuan had just finished calculating yesterday's accounts. Now the net income of the four grain stores can be maintained at about 60 yuan a day, not to mention the clothing store, which can easily make 1,500 yuan a day. Of course, 1,500 yuan is definitely not net income, and the profit can only account for about three-fifths of the turnover.

This is already very impressive. It means that Jiang Che and Wei Xuan can make a net profit of nearly 30,000 yuan a month from these five stores.

Thirty thousand yuan, in this era when a millionaire has to be published in the newspaper, what does it mean to earn thirty thousand yuan a month? Anyway, Wei Xuan felt that she was a little light and beautiful at this moment.

So, after doing the math, Wei Xuan, who had a better idea in her mind, said to Jiang Che: "You can go buy a car now, remember to choose a good one." They are not short of money now. She doesn't know much about cars, but compared with bad ones, good ones must be safer.

I originally thought I would have to wait, but now it seems that I don't have to wait at all. Not to mention the 5,000 yuan that Jiang Che brought back, just relying on the income from the store, a second-hand truck only costs a few thousand yuan, and I can get it easily.

Wow, I'm really rich now, even the tone of my voice is different now. !

Seeing his wife's joy overflowing from her face, Jiang Che joked, "Boss Wei, you've made a fortune!"

Wei Xuan didn't waste any more time talking to him. She showed him the account book and announced her new plan: "I'm going to open a new store."

That's right, after calculating how much money the store could make in a month, Wei Xuan not only asked Jiang Che to buy a car, but also planned to open a branch store as soon as possible. It wasn't a big deal. The employees had been trained almost, and as long as they could find a house and renovate it, the rest would be simple according to the old store's model. Now that the funds were sufficient, even the only problem was gone, so what was there to hesitate about? Of course, the sooner the store opened, the sooner it could make money.

"What kind of branch should we open? A food store or a clothing store?"

The wife's thoughts moved so fast that Jiang Che couldn't keep up for a while.

Section 86

"Open them all. We'll look for a house first. If we find one suitable for a grain store, then we'll open the fifth store. If it's suitable for a clothing store, then we'll open the second clothing store." In fact, if Wei Xuan wasn't pregnant, she would have wanted to open a few more stores.

Jiang Che usually wouldn't object to Wei Xuan's decision, but now... he looked at his wife's belly and started to worry: "Are you sure you want to open a new store now? Can you handle it?" If he decided to buy a truck, then he would definitely spend most of his time on it. As for the store, if he still did it the way it was now, he could take care of it. But if he wanted to open a new store, it would be different.

Wei Xuan was not angry about his questioning. Instead, she asked him to sit down and calmly explained to him: "In fact, whether you have one more store or one less store in the future will not affect you in any way. At most, you will just have to do one more account. The difficult part is the preliminary preparation. In fact, now is the most appropriate time to open a store."

"How do you say it?" Jiang Che didn't understand what was the most appropriate thing to say now.

Wei Xuan said, "Think about it. Do I have time to be busy now? What about you? Your business will not have much business in the early stage. If we open the store now, it will be impossible to open it in a few months. By then, your business will definitely be thriving, and I will be even more worried. If we keep dragging it on like this, it will take at least a year for me to have time to open a branch store. By then, everything will be too late. Not to mention how much money we will lose this year, what if someone else grabs the first opportunity and loses money?"

There is nothing difficult about opening a clothing store. It is a seller's market now. Even if some people choose less fashionable styles, they can still make money. What Wei Xuan needs to do is to seize the next part of the market before others rush into this industry.

After all, the market is not waiting for you to develop it alone. There are many smart people. For example, Wei Xuan's clothing store is so prosperous. How many people have noticed it? It is impossible to say that no one wants to follow suit. Who doesn't want a profitable business?
