Chapter 18 If you have any trouble, find Jiang Qin
In midsummer, the weather is extremely hot.
It felt as if God had covered Jeju City with an invisible steamer. Even if you did nothing, you would sweat just standing there.
At that time, Jiang Qin, who was tanned, stood at the gate of the traffic police brigade, put his newly obtained driver's license in his pocket, then took a taxi to the bank and withdrew 270,000 yuan in cash.
This was something he had decided long ago.
He wants to use this money to test the depth of each industry in order to determine his own entrepreneurial direction and avoid taking too many detours.
To be honest, 270,000 yuan can last a long time if you just spend it, but it is not enough to start a business.
So Jiang Qin is not doing this for money, he is basically just playing around, to listen to insiders talk about the inside story, and also to keep himself passionate about entrepreneurship.
On July 21, Jiang Qin found the mother of his classmate Huang Ying and purchased a batch of face-slimming injections and hyaluronic acid from abroad.
The purchase price is 150 per injection, and after it is sold to the beauty salon, the price is marked as 899 per injection.
Although the beauty industry was not so popular in 2008, looking at the boom in medical beauty in later generations, we can see that this is definitely a highly profitable industry. As long as women love beauty, this industry will always be a bright future.
On July 22, he was browsing the financial news when he saw that Nongfu Spring was going to upgrade its brand and was offering a reward of 300,000 yuan to collect advertising slogans from all over the country. Jiang Qin opened his email, wrote "We don't produce water, we are just nature's porters", and left his mobile phone number.
The next day, a strange phone call came.
The other party claimed to be the manager of the publicity department of Nongfu Spring. He first thanked him and then asked for his card number.
When the information about the arrival of the money was sent to his mobile phone, Jiang Qin suddenly felt like he had picked up money and felt that he was so happy to be reborn.
On July 24, Jiang Qin invested in his classmate Yang Shuan’s mutton soup restaurant, holding a 30% stake.
According to his memory, Yang Shuan's father's craftsmanship was the best in Jeju, and five years later, branches had been opened in the next city. It was a business that was sure to make a profit.
Jiang Qin was not very interested in investing in a shop, but he wanted to secretly learn the secret recipe, and finally found a pack of Sanhua evaporated milk in the cupboard.
On July 29, the driving school coach said that he was the agent of a drug with a profit of one to ten. He heard that Jiang Qin had money and wanted to get him to do it together.
Jiang Qin was very interested, but was still wary of business that came to his doorstep, so he went to investigate privately. As a result, he found out that the driving school coach’s wife was involved in pyramid schemes, so he reported it decisively.
On August 6, when the Olympic Games were about to open, Jiang Qin hired ten people in the labor market to sell national flags and Fuwa dolls on the street.
In the end, all the money he earned was used to pay salaries, and he even put in fifteen hundred yuan out of his own pocket. But seeing the streets full of red, Jiang Qin felt very happy.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
Jiang Qin felt that he had gained a lot.
The medical beauty industry does have huge profits, but the advance payment is too much and the costs are relatively high. The catering industry is stable and the profits are quick, but you have to be unscrupulous, otherwise the probability of losing money is very high.
In addition, labor costs must be considered.
At the beginning of your business, you must think about how to get customers to pay for the labor costs instead of bearing the risk of costs yourself.
For example, when selling national flags, the purchase cost is 50 cents and the selling price is 3 yuan, but in the end you still have to pay out the difference when paying employees.
The most important point is not to believe in business opportunities that come to your doorstep, otherwise you may end up in unimaginable difficulties.
Jiang Qin felt that he really enjoyed doing business, and he found it interesting even if he lost money.
Why the hell didn’t I think about doing business in my previous life?
At the same time, in the class group of Class 2, Grade 3, the graduates who had just received their admission notices were also quite agitated.
Their restlessness is different from Jiang Qin's. Jiang Qin's restlessness is due to his expectations for business, while theirs is purely due to emptiness.
"Everyone, the acceptance letter has come out. Do you want to go out and play together?"
"I think so. The summer vacation is too long. It's so boring staying at home. I've been wanting to find someone to go out and play with for a long time."
"Is there any fun place? We can go there as a group!"
"I heard there's a bar across from the fire station where a group of people get together to drink while watching the Olympics. Should we go experience that?"
As the chat content increased, more and more students began to participate in the group chat.
To be honest, the vacation after the college entrance examination is as long as three months. It is really boring to stay at home, so many people want to go out and play.
I didn’t dare to go before because of my studies and I was overwhelmed by the pressure of the college entrance examination. Now that I have time, what’s wrong with letting go for the sake of youth?
Chu Siqi: "I'm a little upset too. If you want to go out and play, count me in."
Qin Ziang: "Siqi is going too? Then I'll go too."
Yu Shasha: "I'm going too. I'm going too. I haven't been to a bar before. When are we going?"
"Forget it, we went there a few days ago, but we couldn't get a number. We have to make a reservation in advance."
"Yes, that bar is very popular now. It's packed every day. I heard that you can't reserve a seat even if you pay. How can a group of poor students like us compete with those adults for a seat?"
Guo Zihang: "Are you talking about the Night Light Bar?"
Qin Ziang: "Why, you know that too?"
Guo Zihang: "Actually, you can ask Jiang Qin to make a reservation."
“…”
"????"
Guo Zihang's sudden words stunned the entire group.
What does it mean to ask Jiang Qin to make a reservation? No one else can make a reservation, but Jiang Qin can? Does he have a backdoor? Qin Ziang: "Haha, Jiang Qin? He doesn't sell lunch boxes anymore, so he works as a bartender in a bar?"
Yu Shasha: "Is this guy crazy about money? How poor is his family? Why does he do everything?"
Guo Zihang: "He was not a bartender. He rented half of the bar. He initiated the activity of watching the Olympics together. But it became so popular that the bar owner gave him the whole bar to run."
Chu Siqi: "How much does it cost to rent half a bar?"
Guo Zihang: "The venue and drinks seemed to cost about 300,000 yuan."
“…”
Yu Shasha: "Are you kidding me? How could he have 300,000? I know you two are good friends, but there should be a limit to bragging."
Guo Zihang: "What are you bragging about? I watched the opening ceremony at the Night Light Bar yesterday and didn't spend any money."
Huang Ying: "Guo Zihang is not bragging. Jiang Qin teamed up with my mom to buy a batch of 500,000 yuan worth of beauty needles a few days ago, and he paid 100,000 yuan."
Yang Shuan: "My mutton soup restaurant has opened a branch. It's okay if you can't go to the bar. You can come to my mutton soup restaurant to drink soup!"
Chu Siqi: "Let's talk business, why are you advertising?"
Yang Shuan: "Jiang Qin also invested in our second mutton soup restaurant. I don't know how much, but it must be more than 100,000. I have to call him uncle now."
Guo Zihang: "Why do you call him uncle?"
Yang Shuan: "On the day of signing the contract, Jiang Qin and my father were both drunk. They were both in a daze and insisted on becoming sworn brothers. No one could persuade them to stop."
