Chapter 272 When luck comes, it can’t be stopped [6000 words]
“Wife, look what I bought you?”
“Hey, it’s longan. Do we have longan for sale in the capital?”
“It just arrived today. Look, it’s still fresh!”
“Bring it to me to try it quickly. I just talked about this with Aunt Zhang two days ago. I didn’t expect that I would be able to eat it today.”
“Here, take it back and eat it slowly!”
“Tsk tsk, the taste is still so authentic and delicious, it’s so delicious!”
“Boss Zhou, you’re welcome. This is a win-win cooperation. Let’s all drink together!”
Tang Mingjie nodded and began to describe his trip to Guangxi vividly: "When we arrived at Yunheng's house, we greeted Uncle Deng, and Uncle Deng asked Yunheng to take us directly to the orchard to eat lychees.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said, "You must have seen it just now. I bought it from my friend at a high price of 200 yuan per edition. This was the friend price he gave me. If you really want it, , you take away the 220 yuan for that edition.”
Uncle Deng is also a very good cook. He cooks a variety of dishes for us every day, including chicken, duck, fish, and all kinds of seafood. I gained several pounds from eating them.
“Yes, it still tastes the same as last year. There are already a lot of people queuing up to buy it. If you want to buy it, hurry up to avoid being late and not being able to buy it!”
Otherwise, all the neighbors will eat longan, and your family will not be able to eat it. This would be too embarrassing.
Tang's mother said with a distressed look on her face: "Looking at how haggard you are, I told you that it was very hard to take the bus and asked you not to go. You didn't listen to me. Are you suffering now?"
The middle-aged man said: "Comrade, it's not impossible to sell them all to you, but the price of a single monkey ticket is different from the price of the entire page. You should know this, right?"
Tang Mingjie put down his luggage and nodded: "Sitting in a train is really fatal. Sitting on the train for days and nights can make people go crazy!"
Tang Mingjie heard this and said happily: "Okay, then you can discuss a suitable time and I will invite Yunheng to my home as a guest."
Deng Shirong did not counter-offer and said cheerfully: "Okay, 220 yuan per edition. I want all eight of your editions. The total is 1,760 yuan, right?"
Deng Shirong nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I will ship it to you as much as you want next year."
Although Zhou Shengli was a little disappointed when he heard this, he understood and quickly adjusted his attitude: "We were too greedy and ignored the difficulty of preservation."
Tang's mother was a little surprised and said, "What do you mean, did you really have a good time at your classmate's house in Guangxi this time?"
So only 128,411 kilograms of longan were sold, at 3.2 yuan per kilogram, for a total of 410,915 yuan.
Zhou Shengli calculated it silently and asked: "Boss Deng, can I ask the price first?"
Hence, many people are willing to be extravagant, and more or less follow the trend and buy some to eat back.
When longan was selling well in the capital, Deng Yunheng and a group of classmates also returned to Peking University.
However, if the quantity of longan is increased to 100 tons or even hundreds of tons, covering the entire population of the capital, then the movement will be too great, and it may cause some unnecessary trouble.
Deng Shirong was quite unlucky in his previous life. His wife died of illness before he was forty years old, leaving him a bachelor for decades.
Tang Mingjie told his mother about his trip to Guangxi with excitement, including everything about food, clothing, housing and transportation, as well as all kinds of interesting things in the countryside. Tang's mother was dumbfounded.
However, even if it only covers a population of one million, the purchasing power of these customers is unquestionable.
“San Gu, let me tell you something. The longan you like to eat is on sale again. It’s at XX’s place. Go buy it quickly!”
Therefore, Deng Shirong saw a person in front of him spending money to buy eight sets of monkey stamps from another person. When the monkey ticket seller walked away, he asked aloud: "Comrade, can you resell this stamp to me?" ?”
“Since we only eat this once a year, just treat it as the Chinese New Year!”
Therefore, Deng Shirong refused without hesitation: "Boss Zhou, everyone wants to make money, but with our current ability, it is already the limit to transport so many fresh longans. If the quantity is increased, the preservation will be uncontrollable." , when the longan hits your hand, it will be a huge loss.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "I didn't expect you, comrade, would also like to collect this. We are all of the same kind. I can share it with you, but this is a full edition and I will not sell it in pieces."
Tang’s mother was very interested after hearing this and quickly urged: “Tell mom about your experience in Guangxi this time.”
Watching the other party leave, Deng Shirong took a closer look at the eight editions of monkey tickets in his hand.
Deng Shirong pondered for a moment and said: "There is really no way to increase the quantity of longan. If you, Boss Zhou, are interested in pineapples, I can ship some to you next year. This is also one of the four famous fruits in Lingnan, and its shelf life is longer than that of longan." It’s a lot longer, but I don’t know if people in the capital are used to the taste of pineapple.”
“This classmate Deng Yunheng is from a rural area, but his family’s conditions are so good. I wonder what his father does?”
"Uncle Deng has partnered with others to open a tile factory in the village. I heard that the business is not bad. He also runs an orchard. He can make thousands of dollars every year just selling lychees and watermelons. The most important thing is that Uncle Deng We also opened a big hotel in the county seat.”
Wang Daudao and Tian Chunzhi also had expectations in their eyes, and they also wanted to make more money.
If we look at the price theory of later generations, his chance encounter today created more than 10 million in wealth.
Of course, then again, when this thing is worth more than 10 million, he will probably not be short of the money.
Zhou Shengli had also eaten pineapples before, and the taste was completely acceptable to him, so he said with some excitement: "Boss Deng, you will ship a batch of pineapples next year. Let's try the market first. If the customers can accept it, , what do you think about increasing the purchase volume at that time?”
The two of them agreed on the price, and then they handed over the money and delivered the goods.
Transporting it to a nearby city and selling it saves time and effort, and you also make less money. Why not do it?
Wang DaDa asked with blank eyes: "Boss Deng, what kind of fruit is pineapple here?"
Perhaps it was because he was so unlucky in his previous life that he had the opportunity to live another life.
“Oh, it’s so sweet! Man, I’d like to take one too.”
The second son with the highest IQ went astray and became a professional gambler, and the couple never interacted with each other until they died.
After rebirth, Deng Shirong’s luck was much better than in his previous life.
Wang Daudao and Tian Chunzhi each accounted for 30% and received 123,000 yuan, minus the cost of 87,901.5 yuan, resulting in a net profit of 35,098.5 yuan.
This is not something that can be profited in a short period of time. If you have the energy to play with this thing, you might as well go to the capital and buy an extra courtyard house!
However, he really didn’t want to spend energy to mess with Deng Shirong, but if the monkey tickets were placed in front of him, he wouldn’t mind buying some for collection. Even if he didn’t sell them in the future, it would be okay to keep them for his children and grandchildren.
After returning home, Tang Mingjie shouted to a middle-aged woman: "Mom, I'm back!"
“Actually, it’s not bad. After all, longan is transported to our capital from thousands of miles away. The cost is indeed not low. If the price is cheaper, other merchants will not lose money!”
Tian Chunzhi said with interest: "I think the taste of pineapple is very good!"
“His, these fruit sellers are so evil!”
Especially if you have children at home, you should buy it even more.
This hotel is currently run by my classmate’s eldest brother, sister-in-law and sister. It is said that Uncle Deng invested more than 300,000 yuan in building this hotel! "
…
Deng Shirong was just an old man in the countryside in his previous life. The reason why he knew about monkey tickets was because he had read too many novels.
The filial eldest daughter married a man who couldn't support her, and suffered for most of her life.
Wang DaDa suddenly said: "It turns out that pineapples are pineapples!"
In a private room in Dong Laishun, Zhou Shengli, Wang Dadan and Tian Chunzhi invited Deng Shirong to dinner.
Even though the next few daughters-in-law are not yet married, Deng Shirong is sure that even if the latter daughters-in-law are mistaken, under the leadership of his eldest daughter-in-law, there will never be any open and secret fighting between the sisters-in-law like in the previous life.
The capital is the capital after all, and its economy is among the best in the country, both in this era and in future generations. Although longan is expensive at three yuan and a pound, longan is not a fruit that can be sold for a long time like apples. There are only a few days left, if you miss it you will have to wait until next year.
Mother Tang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "That's right, you went to Guangxi, which is one of the provinces with the most longan cultivation. It's not surprising that you can eat longan."
“Lao Wang, Xiaotian, let’s toast to Boss Deng and thank Boss Deng for providing us with another way to make money.”
besides…"
…
Zhou Shengli's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this. In fact, the fruit cost 67 cents per kilogram, which is not cheap among many fruits. But you must know that this is a southern fruit, not the kind common in the north. The price is still high. It's really not expensive at all.
Today, while Deng Shirong was just wandering around, he accidentally encountered two people trading stamps. The stamps were none other than the famous monkey stamps in later generations.
Recalling his experience in Guangxi for more than a month, Tang Mingjie replied: "Mom, it's not just longan. The fruits I ate at my classmate's house this time are probably more than the fruits I have eaten since childhood. Especially the lychee, it tastes amazing!”
…
Therefore, middle-aged people are only happy when they sell it at a high price of 220 yuan per edition.
People's luck is sometimes really hard to say. If you are lucky, you can pick up money when you go out, and you can win the jackpot with any lottery ticket you buy.
The third son has developed the best, but unfortunately he married a wife who is hard to describe, and his life is not as good as that of an ordinary person.
After he came back from rebirth, he didn't think about collecting this thing at first. When he remembered it, he was too lazy to bother with it. After all, the post office had sold all the monkey tickets at that time, so if he wanted to collect it, he had to take his time. Take the time to collect from the people.
If a person is unlucky, he will step on **** when he goes out, and even drink water through his teeth.
“Really, is it still the same kind of longan as last year?”
Therefore, Zhou Shengli did not need to discuss with his two friends, but directly made the decision: "Boss Deng, if the price is this, then you can try 30 tons first. If the market can accept it, then we will increase the purchase." intensity.”
In addition to lychees and watermelons, there are also pineapples, carambola, glutinous rice, yellow peel, longan, etc. You can eat as many fruits as you want.
Tang's mother said with a happy face: "I guess you should have come back in the past few days. Are you tired from riding in the car?"
After all, transporting it from the south requires a lot of freight, and after transporting it, the sales price will definitely not be much cheaper. No one knows whether the people in the capital will buy it. In this case, why take the risk?
Although the price of monkey tickets in this era has increased from 8 cents a piece in 1980 to 2 yuan a piece now, it has doubled many times. It seems that it has quite a collection prospect, but this thing was just released. Three years later, it was not as scarce as it would be in later generations. It would be easy for him to acquire additional items.
"Uncle Deng did spend a lot of money, not to mention eating big fish, meat and all kinds of fruits every day, as well as those electric fans and bicycles, which were obviously bought temporarily because we were coming, although Uncle Deng kept these They can use it too, but we all appreciate it.”
Zhou Shengli is also a fruit merchant after all. He has also been to the south for inspection. He is familiar with most of the fruits in the south. After hearing this, he immediately informed his friends: "Biologically speaking, pineapples and pineapples are the same fruit. The only difference is that the varieties are different. Pineapples have "inner thorns" that need to be removed after peeling, while pineapples have no "inner thorns" after peeling off the outer skin. This is the difference between the two. "
“My man, why did you buy so many longans? Are you having a hard time?”
The fraction of the 915 yuan was used to pay for the trucks and labor wages, leaving 410,000 yuan left.
“Xiaojie, from what you said, classmate Deng Yunheng’s family really spent a lot of money to entertain you classmates!”
“Then I’ll go buy it now. My daughter-in-law said she wanted to eat longan a few days ago. I’ll buy some more for her.”
However, Deng Shirong thought about it and gave up this tempting idea.
“That’s the truth, but it’s too expensive. It costs three yuan and a pound. It makes me feel bad!”
Zhou Shengli accounted for 40% and received 164,000 yuan. After deducting the cost of 117,202 yuan, the net profit was 46,798 yuan.
Tang Mingjie sighed with emotion: "It's not only good, this can be said to be the most fun summer vacation I've had since I grew up!"
Deng Shirong said: "Comrade, I want to buy all the monkey tickets in your hand. I wonder if you are willing to part with me?"
The middle-aged man couldn't help but smile when he saw that Deng Shirong didn't bargain. He bought an edition for 200 yuan and resold it for 220 yuan. The eight-page Monkey Ticket easily made 160 yuan. Who can do this kind of business? Everyone will be happy.
In less than four days, they made more money than they had worked for a year after opening the store. The three of them were excited but also a little depressed. As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. There has been such a situation of "making money every day". After experiencing it, running their business will feel boring.
Tang Mingjie looked at the longan in the fruit basket. In previous years, he would have started eating it as soon as possible and would not have stopped until he had eaten a pound. But this time he waved his hand and said, "Forget it about the longan, during this period I ate too much at my classmate’s house and I’m not interested in eating it now. Mom, you can keep it with dad and sister to eat!”
Deng Shirong said: "Because this does not require much preservation technology, the main cost is in acquisition and transportation, so the price is relatively cheap, only 67 cents per catty."
As a native of Beijing, Tang Mingjie did not go back to school directly like other students. Instead, he took the bus directly from the train station back home.
Hearing this, Mrs. Tang was really surprised. She took the fruit basket placed on the table next to her, put it in front of her son and said, "This is the fresh longan I just bought. Eat some to refresh yourself. Then tell me how you spent more than a month at your classmate's house in Guangxi?"
Speaking of this, Tang Mingjie's face was full of emotion: "That is a real big hotel, covering an area of more than a thousand square meters, and the hotel has three floors. Although the hotel is currently only using the first floor, it can be used all at once." It can accommodate six to seven hundred guests.
When the three of them got together to share the money, they could not conceal their excitement.
Tang Mingjie couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Although I suffered a little on the way back and forth, compared to this trip to Guangxi, the suffering on the road is nothing."
The middle-aged man asked in surprise: "You want them all?"
…
If you make a profit, it will be another way to make a lot of money.
Deng Shirong nodded and said: "I really like it. This monkey is so vivid. I want to buy some for collection."
The entire capital is so big, Zhou Shengli and the other two people naturally cannot cover the nearly 10 million people in the capital with longan.
…
This kind of business can make a lot of money every day. Anyone who has tried it will know the taste. Zhou Shengli wants to see if he can buy more goods from Boss Deng next year, so that he can make more money.
Tang Mingjie nodded and said, "Uncle Deng is really great. Several of our classmates were shocked when they saw Yunheng's grand hotel!"
Two days later.
The person who bought the monkey ticket was a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked at Deng Shirong and asked without answering: "Comrade, do you also like this monkey ticket?"
The price of this version of the Monkey Ticket has soared to one or two million in later generations. In this era, no matter what price you use to get it, you will make a big profit. Naturally, there is no need to bargain. After all, this is an opportunity to rob others.
Deng Shirong has naturally considered this issue. The most commonly grown fruits in Bobai since ancient times are lychees and longans. It is even known as the hometown of longan. Therefore, longans are not only found in Baiping Farm, but also in many places throughout the county. If you want more It’s totally okay to buy some goods.
Then the eldest son also died unexpectedly when he was of marriageable age, so he was given the gift of a man with white hair and a man with black hair.
Because it is a full-page monkey ticket, the collector has preserved it very well, as if it were brand new. If he had not been reborn from the future, he would not have imagined that this thing would be so valuable in the future.
The fourth son and the youngest son also had their own difficulties, and in short, neither of them had a smooth life.
“Then you can’t buy less. Has the price of longan increased this year?”
Uncle Deng planted a thousand lychees and tens of thousands of catties of watermelon in the orchard. Knowing that a group of our classmates were coming to play during the summer vacation, in order to entertain us, Uncle Deng left a lot of lychees and watermelons for us to eat every day. Go full.
“Didn’t I buy this because I saw you like to eat it?”
After clearing the money and goods, the middle-aged man said hello and left with the money in his arms with a smile.
Tang’s mother exclaimed: “It’s amazing. Your classmate’s father is a capable man. He was born in a rural area and was able to create such a large family fortune in the early days of reform and opening up. It’s really hard to predict what heights he can reach in the future!”
Deng Shirong smiled and said: "I understand this. Comrade, please give me a price!"
…
Let’s skip the words of thanks. After the meal was almost finished, Zhou Shengli said: “Boss Deng, the market in Beijing is still very big. We only sold the longans last year and this year in the same area, and there are other I have never sold it in several areas!
Can you please ship more longan next year? We guarantee that we can sell it. "
Tang's mother thought for a while and said, "Xiaojie, when your father comes back, I will discuss it with him and see if the time is suitable to invite you, a classmate, to my home as a guest. You have been so favored by others for more than a month. Father’s warm reception, now that we are back in the capital, we parents must treat your classmate well. "
For example, when I went to Longtan Commune with my daughter, we just ate a bowl of noodles at a noodle stall, and we were lucky enough to meet his eldest daughter-in-law. She is a truly good wife and mother. She has been married to their family for two and a half years. She gets along well with everyone in the family and has the demeanor of a eldest sister-in-law.
Of the 128,511 kilograms of longan, Zhou Shengli left 40 kilograms for his family, relatives and friends, while Wang Dadan and Tian Chunzhi each kept 30 kilograms.
“Okay, I will ship thirty tons of pineapples to you next year.”
You definitely can’t transport longan too much, but the pineapples here have a relatively long shelf life. Even if you use normal transportation channels, they can be transported to the capital for sale. The reason why no one does this is probably because they don’t want to bear losses. risk.
“Well, third aunt, you go ahead, I’m going home first!”
Calculated at 70 cents per pound, thirty tons is only 42,000 yuan. Not to mention cooperating with two friends, even if Zhou Shengli eats it all by himself, there is no pressure, even if it is all lost. , with the profit from longan supporting him, he can't lose.
Deng Shirong nodded and said: "Well, if you are willing to part with me, then I will take them all!"
Therefore, Zhou Shengli and the others were surprised to find that although this year's longan was more expensive than last year, its sales speed was much faster than last year. In less than four days, they sold out all the 64 tons of longan. .
After all, his use of system space to transport longan is not visible to the public. Now it is only a few dozen tons of longan, covering only about one-tenth of the population of the capital. Even if occasionally a leader notices it, he will not pay too much attention. At most, he will just sell it out of curiosity. How do longan merchants do such a good job of preserving freshness?
…”
“Increased by two cents.”
This is also the reason why many girls who have gone to work find it difficult to come back to work in a down-to-earth manner.
So, I'm sorry, there is only so much quantity. Unless there is another major breakthrough in preservation technology, there will be no way to increase the quantity in a short time. "
“Yes, for win-win cooperation, cheers!”
"cheers!"
ˆ PS: Dear friends, if you haven’t voted for the monthly vote yet, do you plan to keep it for the New Year? ^_^
