"Brother, you are too happy too early. This is the second point I told you. Yes, transporting goods from the south to the north will bring double the profits, but you also have to think about how these huge profits come from
?Isn’t it because this road is not easy to walk on and contains huge risks?”
"From ancient times to the present, most businessmen are not engaged in production. Their method of making profit is to transport something from one place to another for sale. And the profit is determined by the risks on the road and the distance of the journey. No matter whether people eat horses or chew
Vehicle and ship freight, robbery and extortion by bandits and bullies, and even the risk of accidents and diseases must be taken into account.”
"So the more troubled the times, the more the prices of goods soared. There is no way, if the freight cannot go through, it is all in vain. To put it bluntly, it is just like during the Anti-Japanese War, our army tried to find a way to break through the enemy's blockade. The real increase is all
The transportation costs, food, medicine, and munitions all have to be exchanged for gold, which is expensive."
"It's the same today. Although it's a new society, you don't have to worry about making money, but there are still a lot of risks on the road. If you don't do it well, you will lose money and capsize, and you will be in bad luck."
"The truth is actually very simple. It is very difficult to make a thing without making mistakes in all aspects. On the contrary, it is much easier to ruin the thing. Just a little carelessness can ruin the pot. If you don't believe it, I will tell you
Tell me about the basic difficulties you have to face during this trip, and you will understand."
"First of all, it's hard to buy tickets, and it's hard to ride on the train. Going from the capital to the southernmost part of the motherland, the fastest train takes two days and three nights. You definitely can't get a sleeper berth. Do you know what it's like to get on the train? It's better to go on the train than on a public train.
The cars are crowded. There are even people lying under the seats, and the ordinary carriages are even more stinky and there is no room to put your feet down."
"There is no water to drink. To eat or to go to the toilet, you have to climb up from the back of the chair. Not to mention the price of the food in the car, it is hard to swallow, cold and hard. Even though you are young and strong, you have reached the place
, if you don’t faint or vomit when you get off the car, then you are a good man. If you go and come back, if you don’t lose five or six kilograms, then I’ll say it was all in vain.”
"But this is just hardship. The key is that the road is indeed not smooth, and it is inevitable to be cautious. Especially on the Xinxiang section of the road, there are almost more thieves than beggars. They go into groups to squeeze around single travelers, often without any trace.
Be careful, there must be something wrong with you. If you want people to stare at you, if you don't get anywhere, you will lose your capital first. What does it feel like to be penniless and living in a foreign land? "
"Even if you get to the place, don't feel at ease. The Flower City is the world of flowers. There are so many things you haven't seen before, not only the good ones, the fragrant ones, the bad ones, the smelly ones, no less. Not to mention anything else.
, do you know how many motorcycles there are in Huacheng? There are also motorcycle gangs. One person drives and the other sits behind. When two bad guys pass you, they take advantage of you when you are not prepared, grab your things and speed up. You can catch up.
Where can I find it? You don’t understand the language, and you can’t even understand the police when you report the crime."
"It's even more difficult when you're looking for someone to do business. Where do you think these toad mirrors and electronic watches come from? They are imported and smuggled. Then you have to hide from people and trade behind your back. You are a
People, don’t worry if you follow others with all your wealth? Even if it’s a real transaction, you have to go through it piece by piece and actually hold the goods in your hands before you can give money. Because I know someone who bought fifty yuan of electronics
I didn’t look at the watch when I was in a hurry to pay for it, but when I went back I found that half of it was defective. There were also people who saw something that was quite good at the time, but it turned out to be wrong.”
"Can you really feel at ease once you have the goods? No, if you want to bring it back safely, there are still many hurdles to go through. Even though you were loose when you came here, it won't be the same when you go back. People who have been there told me
, now people all over the country who want to get rich are starting to run to Huacheng. But the train station in Huacheng does not allow you to swagger and bring goods on the train casually."
"There are industrial and commercial personnel on duty in the underground aisles and on the platform, and conductors have to check every step of the way. Even when you get on the train, there are people with spring scales who continue to check randomly. Even after you get off the train, there are still conductors who go through the final screening. Check.
What? The first is to check for overweight luggage, and the second is to check for contraband. The toad mirrors, electronic watches, calculators, audio tapes, folding parasols, foreign tobacco, alcohol and nylon cloth that you are worried about are all strictly checked.
The key target to defend. Once it is revealed, you will be confiscated and you will be severely punished."
"If you can really take the goods out of the train station safely, you are indeed lucky. But do you think you can feel at ease now that you have reached this point? Do you really think that you are guaranteed to sell your goods on the street?
Have you made a fortune? In the end, it depends on what you are selling? Will you be caught by the police?"
"Selling toad mirrors and folding umbrellas is a relatively small crime. But electronic products, tobacco, alcohol, and nylon cloth will definitely cause a lot of trouble. Because they all touch the country and the main economy, it is almost the same as selling food stamps.
It's the same crime. It would be better if someone in the bureau speaks for you. Otherwise, if it's more serious, you can go in directly, and the criminal punishment will start at least two years."
"I'm not being alarmist. This is the capital, man. So you think about it carefully. Although the profits are huge, how sure are you of making it? If you fail, how serious will the consequences be? I'm not afraid of your jokes, that's it.
Because I knew these difficulties and felt that I was not equipped to deal with them, I stayed in the capital and gave up on the idea of selling goods."
For a person who is in urgent need of money, in fact, as long as the profit is enough, he is not afraid of any hardship.
Especially the one who is short of money is a businessman.
His desire for money is enough to encourage him to muster the courage to overcome obstacles and strive for everything he wants.
But the prerequisite is that you must first determine that the chance of winning is in your own hands.
I believe that I can overcome difficulties through my own efforts and diligence.
If you rely on luck and the outcome is completely dependent on fate, it will inevitably make you lose confidence and weigh the gains and losses.
Zhang Shihui, who had been hopeful just now, suddenly fell into disappointment.
He covered his head and rubbed his hair until it became a dull gourd again.
It took him a long time to finally regain his composure and start to make a grunting sound.
"Brother, this won't work, that won't work either. You've blocked almost all the roads together. You really hit me hard. But what you said does make sense. Let me just follow you.
If you say so, it seems like you have already made such a trip."
"Thanks to you, I understand a lot now. The effort and reward are directly proportional. The last time my neighbor helped me purchase goods, I thought the guy who gave me the glasses priced fifteen dollars was outrageous, but I don't think so now.
Already."
He took a deep breath and seemed to have made a very serious decision.
"How about this? I still have to go to the south. But according to what you said, I won't do those frivolous things. Why don't I just get some cheap clothes, leather shoes and other head offices? If the profit is smaller, I can still save money.
Less makes more. What do you think?"
And this is exactly what Ning Weimin wants to see most.
He smiled and handed over a cigarette, "Brother, if you think about it this way, all my spitting is not in vain."
But then, his tone changed again, just like this.
Zhang Shihui, who had just taken the cigarette from his hand, slipped his legs and almost fell off the chair, and kowtowed to him.
"But you're a little anxious again. I have an idea for you. Just stay in the capital. It won't be troublesome, there will be no risk, and you can still make a lot of money. Do you think that's okay?"
