Chapter 6:
In his last life, he went to work in Liujiang about three years later. He first worked as an assembly line worker in the factory for more than half a year. At a young age, he couldn’t hold back, and he had no patience, so he switched to two or three factories for half a year. And when he has time, he goes out for a walk. He has seen all the places in the industrial park, all kinds of people, and small businesses in details. Jiang Xiao later was generally good, and he met several people who changed his life. The person who had helped him, so he grew up a little more and started to do business by himself when he was in his twenties.
Physical enterprises are not easy to do, not only in Liujiang City. Jiang Xiao ran through various industrial parks and met various factory owners similar to him. He started from the bottom. A lot of experience and a lot of things to know.
Ye Bing glanced at him hesitantly and asked, "Does your mother know about this?"
"I'll tell her after I earn money," Jiang Xiao said, "Uncle Ye, I know you're good to our family, but you can't help for a while. I'm my mother's support now, so you can give me a try. ,it's OK?"
Ye Bing didn't agree at first, and even lost his temper in the middle, but after being rubbed several times by Jiang Xiao, he finally let go.
"You have the strength and the ability to speak. I really think you can do this business well," he said.
With him willing to help, things would be much easier.
When Jiang Xiao explained to Xia Wanwan, she said that she was going to the countryside with Ye Yingying. He had been obedient in the past month, and Xia Wanwan didn't pay attention to him. Ye Yingying also gave Jiang Xiao a cover, so she was relieved, only Said to be careful and safe, and gave Jiang Xiao some money.
The truck departed at three in the morning. Ye Bing looked at Jiang Xiao, who was carrying a luggage bag and a schoolbag. The fifteen-year-old boy had grown up at an unknown time. glowing.
Such an old child will be forced to become a man of the sky at this time.
Ye Bing glanced at his schoolbag and asked, "Did you bring the book to read? Your mother told me a few days ago that you have been studying a lot more seriously this month."
"I didn't bring it," Jiang Xiao said honestly, "I brought the schoolbag to pack my stuff."
He didn't have a lot of bags in total. The school bag and the travel bag were both light and durable. Jiang Xiao only brought clothes and simple toiletries, and he didn't bring the rest.
Earning money is earning money, and studying is studying. Jiang Xiao has a very clear distinction and will not stay there for too long. He only stays there for three or four days on eleven or seven days. When Uncle Ye goes back and forth for the second time, If I can take him back, I have other time during the holidays to do questions and read books.
He has to concentrate on everything he does. Jiang Xiao can't do anything he can do. He has always been self-aware and knows that he is not a very smart person. Moreover, the co-pilot of the large truck was also uncomfortable sitting, and the road was very swaying. He couldn't stop reading a book there. He might as well close his eyes and take a rest. When it was dawn, he would have no time to rest. If you want to make money and read books at the same time, in the end, you can't do both well.
Ye Bing listened to what he said, started the car, smiled, and said, "That's right, depending on your set, how much money are you going to take?"
Plus the money Xia Wanwan just gave him, eight hundred yuan.
Jiang Xiao reported this number honestly, and Ye Bing laughed after hearing it.
"Eight hundred dollars is enough for what?" He took out a red envelope that was already packed in his arms and threw it into Jiang Xiao's arms, "Take it."
Jiang Xiao opened it and saw that it was a stack of money. At a rough glance, it should be about 2,000 yuan, which is indeed a lot of money for a junior high school student at this age.
"Lend it from you," Ye Bing said, his face was full of tired ravines, he didn't even look at him, he looked straight ahead with a solemn tone, "Xiao Xiao, if you study hard, I will pay the money in advance. I gave you the lucky money, but if you want to do business, this money is borrowed, and doing business is not that easy, so you should be mentally prepared."
Jiang Xiao smiled, but he didn't refuse, took my money and said, "I know, thank you uncle, I will pay it back."
"Don't push yourself too hard, just pay it back when you want," Ye Bing softened his tone after scare people, "If you can't do it this time, just go to school."
The car gradually started up and started on the road in the thick night.
Jiang Xiao carried nearly 3,000 yuan in his arms. The money was warm. He squinted and looked ahead. The headlights illuminated the road ahead. He could see the dust floating in the lamp road. I closed my eyes in this swaying feeling.
It's good to be young, unlike before when he was old and sleepy, he closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep. It was about ten hours on the road, and it was already afternoon when he arrived at the place.
When he got to the place, Ye Bing couldn't take care of him, but when Jiang Xiao got off the bus, he repeatedly told him to remember his mobile phone number and find a phone booth to call him if something happened.
"It's alright," Jiang Xiao comforted him, "I'll call 911 if something happens, it's safe."
Ye Bing: "...Also."
Liujiang City is indeed very safe.
Jiang Xiao got out of the car with his two bags. The air in the industrial park was very bad. Jiang Xiao walked into the crowd and melted in a while.
Ye Bing took care of him enough and found him a good place to stay nearby. He is a truck driver who has traveled this route many times, and he is also familiar with the hotels here. The account is directly on his head. Jiang Xiao The two pieces of transportation and accommodation will be saved directly.
But how to buy goods and do business, Ye Bing can't control him.
Although there are many factories in the industrial park, the factories do not sell retail investors, especially Jiang Xiao, who only has 3,000 yuan in his hands. With such a small amount of money, how could anyone be willing to sign a contract with a minor, no matter how small the factory is unwilling to accept it. He and Jiang Xiao's main target is the wholesale market next to the industrial park.
The wholesale market is very close to the production place not only means that the goods are cheap, many people will be dazzled when they enter the wholesale market for the first time. There are all kinds of shops, goods are piled up in the sky, and the bosses who do business in it are also all kinds of people. , It is uneven, it is common for the same product to be purchased by different people for more than double the price, and the quality is even more uncertain.
Jiang Xiao was a visitor. He sat at a street stall and ate a bowl of beef noodles. His hair was casually lifted up by him. He wore a black shirt and gray pants, and stepped on a pair of slippers. He didn't look like a student anymore.
3,000 yuan, to play the maximum effect Caixing. Jiang Xiao had a lot of things to buy. He had already made a list before he set off, and he knew it well.
He went into the market after eating the noodles. Jiang Xiao has been here in his previous life, and he quickly found the store he wanted. The wholesale market is not like the shops outside, welcoming customers warmly. The boss sits inside watching TV, Jiang Xiao When he came in, he glanced at it. He was not a regular customer, and he was young. He didn't turn his head.
Jiang Xiao has lived in Liujiang City for a long time, and he can speak very authentic Liujiang local dialect. He compared the previous ones and found that this one has more complete products and decent quality, so he asked the price in a local accent.
Hearing that he was a local, the boss just glanced at him and returned the price.
Jiang Xiao didn't lift his eyes, looked at the goods on the shelf carefully, and said, "It's expensive."
Although Jiang Xiao didn't get much, the wholesale market would have to cut it by at least half at this price. It was estimated that he was tricked by his young age.
"Don't fool me, my family makes this, do you know what the price is?" Jiang Xiao threw the goods back to the place and leaned back on the shelf, showing a bit of arrogance, he quoted a price himself, "Sell it or not? No? Sell me to the next door."
The boss shook his head and said that it was not the price. Seeing that his tone had changed, he was trying to find out how many pieces he wanted.
"Ten thousand dollars," Jiang Xiao picked on the shelves, a little disgusted, "Your goods are a bit old, and now the little girl likes new ones, it's not easy to sell, forget it, I'll find another store have a look."
The price was slashed by him, and the goods were devalued again. Jiang Xiao's tone and expression, especially the prices he gave, were quite accurate. The boss knew that this was not a novice, so he quickly pulled the person back.
"Others' products are not as good as mine! Look at you, pretty boy, there are new products behind me, and they sell very well outside," the boss said. "We'll discuss the price, and I'll give you a discount."
The price was negotiated slowly, and Jiang Xiao now had time to argue with him.
The skill of bargaining is about both hard and soft. Jiang Xiao has grown up, and after he has found the boss's foundation back and forth, he is more at ease.
It is naturally impossible to buy all these kinds of bracelets and so-called star cards. Many small manufacturers are doing that kind of bracelets, and there are many variants that extend from them. Jiang Xiao knows their consumption level and did not choose too expensive. Yes, he chose a few of the various price points and looks. The low wholesale price is only a few cents, and the more expensive and delicate ones cost a few dozen yuan.
That kind of star plastic card is even cheaper. In Houlin, it only costs two or three yuan a stack. Here, the price can be reduced to a few cents. He spent a total of five hundred to buy these. This is because Ye Bing suddenly With the money, Jiang Xiaocai increased the amount.
"World Red Dust" is a mainland drama broadcast on TV stations. It is broadcast in a unified time period nationwide, so the time for this drama to be popular nationwide is still very uniform.
But at this point in time, most of the popular idol dramas are still from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. If these dramas want to be broadcast on TV stations, they generally have to wait, and most of them cannot be on TV stations, so at this time, many people are waiting to watch the discs. Yes, watching video with VCD and DVD, and listening to music with tape recorder is the mainstream at this time.
Some dramas have already become popular in coastal cities that received information first. Small factories have a keen sense of smell. The same models in the drama have been sold for a while, but Houlin will take time to wait for this temperature to pass. He is playing this. Time difference.
Jiang Xiao spent 500 yuan in the audio-visual store to buy a stack of new TV series discs and idol singer tapes, and still haggled the price and included some gifts.
These are the latest things for Houlin. He intends to sell them to a video rental store not far from the school gate. On the one hand, he can make money by selling them directly. On the other hand, when these things set off a trend, Jiang I can rely on it to make more money.
Hairbands, pencil cases, pendants, keychains, necklaces, bracelets, posters, stickers and photo cards... Jiang Xiao has read the things that are sought after by school girls these days. is serious.
After all, the money is limited, this is his first business, and he can rely on these to judge what the students like now.
Before Ye Bing came, Jiang Xiao had already packed his two packages. He carefully organized them. The packages were all wrapped up, for fear that one item would be damaged.
He also called Ye Bing from the hotel's landline, and determined the time and place to pick him up. Ye Bing changed the location this time, and he won't come to this industrial park to pick up the goods. Jiang Xiao will make it earlier. Take the bus and go to another industrial park for about an hour or so on the road.
The bus passed through Liujiang City, and some high-rise buildings could be seen. Jiang Xiao sat on the seat by the window and looked out.
When he stopped at a station, there was a coffee shop with very western decoration. Several young people about his age were sitting by the window, holding newly bought cameras, giggling and taking pictures outside the window.
Jiang Xiao saw the flashing light flashing, and he must have accidentally entered the camera, but the bus quickly drove away, and he didn't take it seriously. It was just a photo, and he was not shameful.
I just sighed a little in my heart, cameras are very expensive now, and junior high school students who can play with this as a toy probably have a good family background.
In contrast, Jiang Xiao was tired from going out during this time, and in order to pretend to be mature, he made a mess of himself, and his clothes should be resistant to soiling when he went out. Small bag, like a sloppy little migrant worker.
But it's nothing. I can't envy this kind of birth. Jiang Xiao cherishes the current life very much. He will rely on his own efforts to make the family live better.
