Chapter 1052

~7 min read 1,334 words

After Qiao Qiao Xiaohu finished speaking, he returned to the bag again and took out the 7 cans of cola inside.

Wang An didn't refuse either, patted Qiao Qiao Xiaohu on the shoulder again, and said with a smile:

"Hahaha, alright, then I'll accept it. You kid are capable, not bad."

Immediately after, Wang An taught Qiao Qiao Xiaohu for a while about how to negotiate with customers so that he could win them over as soon as possible.

Actually, in this era, things like mushrooms and wild vegetables belong to scarce materials in big cities, so it's not difficult at all to sell them. After all, this is a seller's market, not a buyer's market.

Feeling that he had taught enough, mainly because Qiao Qiao Xiaohu was already showing confusion, Wang An said:

"Alright, I won't say anymore. I have a lot of things to do, so I have to go."

As he spoke, Wang An stood up, looked at those commodities, and said while picking:

"I'll take some things, consider it taking care of our business, hehehehe..."

Wang An took a handful of hair ties, a few hairpins, another 5 kerosene lighters, 5 electronic watches, and 5 mechanical watches. After thinking about it, he took 1 single-cassette recorder and a few tapes.

The main thing is that there were only 3 single-cassette recorders in total, otherwise Wang An would have taken another one.

After looking around again, feeling that other things were useless, Wang An said:

"Calculate the account, see how much it is in total?"

Qiao Qiao Xiaohu was still pondering what Wang An had just taught him. Hearing Wang An's question, he said indifferently:

"These are all our own things, what's there to calculate?"

Wang An rolled his eyes at Qiao Qiao Xiaohu and said in a very serious tone:

"Can that work? A little more or a little less is fine, but all these things together must be several hundred, right?"

Seeing that Wang An wasn't joking, Qiao Qiao Xiaohu said helplessly:

"This single-cassette recorder is relatively expensive, the cost price is 320. This mechanical watch cost 15 yuan each, tapes are 1.5 yuan, electronic watches are 3 yuan each, lighters are 2 yuan each, hairpins are 30 cents each, and hair ties are 20 cents each."

Wang An looked at the things he took and calculated roughly, it was about 430 plus yuan, so he very readily took out 44 ten-yuan bills and handed them over.

But Qiao Qiao Xiaohu didn't take them, and said:

"Big Brother, you say this is our own business, what's the point of collecting money? Can't we just deduct it from the dividends?"

It was obvious that Qiao Qiao Xiaohu couldn't stand Wang An's way of doing things.

As soon as Wang An heard this, his eyes widened and he said:

"Don't argue with me, I said do it this way, so do it this way."

Qiao Qiao Xiaohu secretly glanced at Wang An's eyes, and only then reluctantly took the money.

Regarding Qiao Qiao Xiaohu's reluctance, Wang An didn't take it to heart, and asked with some curiosity:

"How much do you sell these things for?"

Qiao Qiao Xiaohu smiled lewdly and said:

"Single-cassette recorder is 600, mechanical watch wholesale is 20, retail is 25, electronic watch wholesale is 8, retail is 10, tape wholesale is 3, lighter is 4, hairpin wholesale is 1, retail is 1.2..."

After listening, Wang An was immediately dumbfounded!

No wonder Qiao Qiao Xiaohu could accumulate from 800 yuan to 3,000 yuan in such a short time. This profit is simply a bit outrageous!

The profit of one single-cassette recorder is 280 yuan, mainly because the cost is only 320 yuan. Electronic watch cost price is 3 yuan, but you sell it for 8 yuan, can you believe it?

Especially the hairpins, things that cost 30 cents, you sell them wholesale for 1 yuan, oh my god...

Although this also involves travel expenses and personnel expenses, and of course, the risk-taking money, even so, this can be called profiteering!

And this kid Qiao Qiao Xiaohu is really dark enough.

One must know that when Wang An was tossing goods in his previous life, although he also earned a lot of money, compared with Qiao Qiao Xiaohu at this time in terms of profit, it was simply heaven and earth.

Of course, this is also because Wang An entered this industry late in his previous life. At that time, "backpackers" had already formed a scale in various places, and it was completely impossible to be so profitable again.

It must be said that actually, all industries are the same; only the first person to eat crab can make a fortune.

After being shocked for a while, Wang An nodded and gave Qiao Qiao Xiaohu a thumbs up, and after a long time, he came up with a sentence:

"Alright, you are awesome, you are too damn awesome!"

Qiao Qiao Xiaohu smiled shyly and said:

"Our price is about the same as the supply and marketing cooperative. We don't need industrial coupons, and we have to be more expensive than them, otherwise it will be even more unreasonable. Besides, this recorder doesn't sell fast. Selling two a month is already the limit. It's also difficult to keep money tied up like this."

Wang An nodded again and said:

"Yeah, this thing is indeed not something ordinary people can afford."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Wang An put the scattered things into a bag and left with the bag and the recorder.

That's right, he was carrying it; there was a handle on the single-cassette recorder.

Returning to the sidecar motorcycle, Wang An wrapped the recorder with the military coat he had just received, and only then did he ride the sidecar motorcycle to the hardware store with peace of mind.

Because this era is all gravel roads, if the newly bought recorder was shaken to pieces, Wang An would be heartbroken.

Arriving at the hardware store, Wang An's way of buying things really startled the salesperson.

The main thing is that other people buy wires by the meter, but Wang An is good, buying directly by the bundle.

Standard 305-meter bundles of copper wire, Wang An bought 2 bundles directly, and for the outdoor stone wire, Wang An calculated for a long time and decided to buy 4 bundles directly.

Besides wires, he bought a box of 50 light bulbs. Of course, the light bulbs Wang An bought were not of the same wattage: 20 of 100 watts, and the rest were 40 watts and 25 watts. As for the 15-watt light bulbs commonly used by people in this era, Wang An didn't buy a single one.

There's no way around it; the courtyard is too big, and there are too many warehouses, sheds, pig pens, and deer sheds. If all of them are connected to electric lights, it will really cost a lot of electricity.

So for rooms that people don't enter often, 25-watt light bulbs are enough. As for 15-watt light bulbs, in Wang An's view, the light is about the same as a candle. Buying that thing is useless.

After buying the light bulbs and wires, the corresponding things are knife switches, lamp holders, porcelain gourds, junction boxes, etc.

It must be said that these things are really not cheap, totaling more than 300 yuan for Wang An.

To tell the truth, for a big courtyard like Wang An's, ordinary families can't even afford to buy these things for electricity.

Finally, Wang An bought 10 sickles for harvesting crops. It is said that sharpening a knife does not delay the work of cutting wood, but then again, no matter how fast you sharpen a knife, it is not as fast as changing a knife directly.

Thanks to "Reader" for the two rewards, thank you, thank you!

Wish Big Brother, always smiling, smooth sailing, and making a big fortune every day!
