I just want to make money

Chapter 17
Lin Yi was not in a hurry to buy goods, he went around all the stores, asked the prices of various commodities, and tried his best to fully understand the current market conditions.

Through comparison, Lin Yi found that the prices on the island were indeed cheaper than those in the Lin Family Courtyard, and there were more types of goods, including sunglasses, cosmetics, instant noodles, suits, bat shirts, tape recorders, TV sets, and even motorcycles.

And there are more goods here, every house is full of goods, and the stalls at the door are just samples to attract customers.

Today, the biggest difficulty in doing business is transportation. The country prohibits long-distance transportation and prohibits the sale of industrial products. When obtaining a self-employed license, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau issued a business catalog. The prohibited part has more than ten pages, and the permitted part only has two or three pages.

His biggest reliance is space, so the products he deals in must be those with small size and high added value.

Among all the products Lin Yi considered, sunglasses met the standard the most.

"Boss, how do you sell the sunglasses?"

When I came to a house that specializes in selling sunglasses, the house was full of all kinds of sunglasses, and the packaging was only the simplest transparent plastic bag.

"One pair of resin lenses here is one and two, one here is one five, the glass lens here is two six, and the brown one here is two eight. There are also plastic frames and metal frames. The best three six is ​​one pair. , all with import labels."

Divided by type, the cheapest resin glasses are more than one yuan, glass lenses are more expensive, and the most expensive are only more than three yuan.

Lin Yi thought about it in his mind. The cheapest one can be sold for five yuan, and the most expensive one can be sold for fifteen or even eighteen. The profit can reach three to five times. It is not worse than the electronic watch, and this one can be placed Selling on the market, you don't need to be sneaky like a digital watch, and it should sell faster.

"Boss, give me a woven bag." Lin Yi said.

As soon as the boss heard Lin Yi's tone, he knew that it was a big customer, and he smiled and handed over a strong woven bag.

The first one entered a bag.

Lin Yi went to another store, which also wholesaled a large number of toad mirrors, and Lin Yi picked up another bag of different styles.

After three o'clock in the afternoon,
Lin Yi boarded the boat with two big woven bags, and everyone else also had big and small bags, similar to Lin Yi.

At this time, people's mood is obviously much more relaxed, and many people are chatting.

Most of these purchasers were two or more people, and there were very few single-handed ones like Lin Yi. They chatted about what to sell and what price to sell when they returned. Lin Yi listened to their chat and took the opportunity to learn a lot of information.

What these people talk about the most is how strict the inspections are on the road. One of the old brothers has been inspected three times in a row.

On the contrary, when I went back to the place, there was basically no one in charge of selling goods, and the sales situation was very good. No matter what goods I brought back, they would be sold out in a short time.

It's a strange time of year.

Although people's income is small, their consumption is brutal.

A black-and-white TV set costs 500 yuan, and people can’t even snatch it up. A tape recorder costs [-] to [-] yuan cheap, and [-] to [-] yuan more expensive. There are still a lot of people buying it, and it’s not ambiguous to spend half of your life’s accumulated income on big things. .

As if to buy is to earn.

On the contrary, modern people mostly depend on the situation when consuming, and the barbaric strength is far less than that of the 90s.

Lin Yi can also understand that the mortgage is under pressure.

When they returned to Nansha, it was already dark, and everyone got off the boat with the goods and carried them back to the hotel with difficulty. As soon as Lin Yi put the things in the house, the shop owner came.

"Little brother, a lot of goods have been brought in." The boss said, looking at Lin Yi's two big woven bags.

"It cost several thousand." Lin Yi said.

"Is the place I introduced not bad?"

"That's right, thank you, boss." Lin Yi knew the other party's intention, and took out 50 yuan from his pocket and handed it over, which was the introduction fee agreed before.

The boss took the money with a smile.

"The room fee for these two days will be waived for you. I will stay here again next time. If I want to go to the island, I will contact you again. It only costs 50 next time."

"If you are not satisfied with that place, I can still introduce new markets. The introduction fee is still 50. Don't worry, it will definitely not be worse than here."

Lin Yixin said that the boss is doing good business.

Every newcomer earns [-], and repeat customers earn [-]. I don’t know how much I earn just for this introduction fee a year. No wonder people say that water is good for fish farming. After forming an industrial chain, not only will the main business make money, but it will also drive more peripheral industries. .

"Okay, I'll find the boss when I come back next time." Lin Yi said with a smile.

Suddenly something came to mind, "Boss, can you help me buy a sleeper ticket?"

Sleeper tickets are very difficult to buy these days, it doesn't matter if it's not your turn, Lin Yi bought the tickets with a trustee when he came, but he doesn't care about the return tickets.

"Sleeping berth tickets, let me ask."

"Then thank you boss."

When the boss left, he probably went to ask other customers for money, and asked for money after finishing the work. This boss is actually quite authentic in his work.

After a tiring day, Lin Yi simply washed up and went to sleep. The next day, he went downstairs to eat breakfast. As soon as he came back from the meal, the boss poked his head out of the window and waved at Lin Yi, "Little brother, the train ticket price I asked you something."

Lin Yi hurried over.

"You can get a sleeper ticket, and the fare is [-] more, would you like it?" the boss said.

The ticket price is more than 50, which is equivalent to doubled. Lin Yi knows that the money is for related parties, and the boss should also share it in the middle, but it doesn't matter. This is a normal situation. The price is clearly marked. It depends on whether you want it or not.

"Okay, I want it, you can get me one." Lin Yi agreed very simply.

The boss smiled and nodded, "Give me 110 yuan first, and I'll send you the ticket if I get it."

Lin Yi quickly took out the money, "Thank you boss."

at night,

Lin Yi boarded the train back to Jiangcheng. When he left the hotel, he still had two big bags in his hand, but before entering the train station, it turned into a broken travel bag, with only a few clothes and some food in it.

Those goods are naturally collected into the space.

After the two big bags were put in, the space became full. This was calculated by Lin Yi, and it was not worthwhile to come here after all. It must be full no matter what.

bang~
bang~

The monotonous sound of the railway track is quite rhythmic when you get used to it, but the high-speed rail in later generations passed by, but it lost this taste.

Three days later,
Lin Yi finally returned to Jiangcheng's home.

He poured out all the things in the space, and the bed was filled with all kinds of sunglasses in an instant.

Count the numbers.

When I received it, I couldn't count it. After Lin Yi counted, there were more than 6000 pairs in total. Even at the cost price, the price of this batch of sunglasses was more than 1 yuan.

Jiang Wu and Li Xiangqian came over the next day.

I was very surprised to see what Lin Yi brought back, "Brother Yi, the sunglasses you bought, how did you bring so many things here?"

"I found a friend to open up the relationship on the railway, and we will have a relatively stable transportation route in the future." Lin Yi said.

Jiang Wu held out his thumb.

"Brother Yi is amazing."

"I have been away for more than ten days, how is the sales of electronic watches?" Lin Yi asked.

"Hey Brother Yi, look at this." Li Xiangqian went to the east room and took out a pocket from the corner.

Open the pocket.

It was full of banknotes.

Ten, five, two, one.

Wrapped up with a rubber band.

He took out a ledger from inside and handed it to Lin Yi: "Brother Yi, the ledgers are all registered here. A total of 196 electronic watches, 28 quartz watches, and 8 mechanical watches were sold, totaling 10283 yuan."

Jiang Wu interrupted and said, "I also sold three tape recorders and two TV sets for a total of 2634 yuan. The money is here, and it's not bad."

Lin Yi didn't pay attention to the woven bag in the east room yesterday, he didn't expect so much money in it.

He calculated silently in his mind, and now there should be more than 300 electronic watches, more than 100 quartz watches, and more than 100 mechanical watches.

Tell them to sit down.

Lin Yi said: "I plan to stop making electronic watches when the batch of electronic watches in my hand is sold out, and concentrate on doing business in Hanzheng Street. Selling smuggled goods will not last long after all."

Li Xiangqian nodded: "Listen to Brother Yi."

Jiang Wu felt a little pity, "Brother Yi, the electronic watch makes so much money, are you willing?"

"What is there to be reluctant about? I decided to sell electronic watches at the beginning because we had no capital in hand. Selling electronic watches is considered speculative. If you catch it, you will go to jail. Selling sunglasses may not be less profitable than selling electronic watches. It may even be more expensive if you do well. many."

Speaking of this, Lin Yi muttered in his heart, I'm not setting up a flag, don't make any drama that thunderstorms as soon as I finish talking.

"What about them?" Jiang Wu asked.

"It's okay. I have arrangements. I'll make some preparations tomorrow. The store on Hanzheng Street will officially open the day after tomorrow."
