Chapter 24 Cents
There were thick stacks of bills one after another (one yuan, fifty cents, two cents bills), and everyone smiled when they saw it.
In this year when the salary of 36 yuan is long live, 322 yuan is a huge sum of money. Li Daqi and the others never expected that this clothes hanger would sell so well. If they had doubts before, now they have real money in front of them.
, that trace of doubt has long since disappeared.
Song Yuanchao originally planned to wait until the hangers were sold out before dividing the money, but now seeing everyone's high morale, he thought about it and counted out a stack of money.
"Everyone has worked hard these days. After working for so long, we finally pay attention to our money." Song Yuanchao said to everyone with a smile, and everyone was laughing too.
"First give each person 10 yuan, go home early, eat something good, and then have a good rest. We will continue tomorrow if we are full of energy."
"Long live Brother Song!"
"Long live aid to Korea!"
“Long live the RMB!”
As soon as Song Yuanchao finished speaking, cheers rang out.
Although 10 yuan is not a lot, it is still a lot. You must know that Song Yuanchao started this business by himself. The raw materials, the initial advance funds and the trading ideas were all Song Yuanchao's, and others just followed suit.
What's more, if it weren't for Song Yuanchao during the hawking today, I'm afraid the sales wouldn't have been so good. At first, they agreed to pay after the sale, but now Song Yuanchao gave them 10 yuan each on the first day. It was really loyal.
He smiled and counted ten yuan bills to each person and stuffed them into each other's hands. Song Yuanchao said "hard work" by the way. The face of the person who got the money was filled with a smile, and his heart was filled with pride after earning money.
After dividing the money, Song Yuanchao and the others left the air-raid shelter one after another and went home. After Li Daqi, Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun left first, Song Yuanchao, who was walking at the end, took out the 20 yuan he had prepared and stuffed it directly into Gu Jie's hand.
"Brother Song, what are you...?"
Gu Jie was immediately at a loss and didn't understand why Song Yuanchao gave him this money.
"Keep it, I would have borrowed this place without you. Although I said there would be no rent required before, you can't borrow it for free. My brother has settled the account, and you deserve this money."
Patting Gu Jie on the shoulder, Song Yuanchao said again: "Say hello to your dad when you get back. It will take a while before we can finish this deal."
"I understand, thank you, Brother Song." Gu Jie was a very smart man and immediately understood the meaning of Song Yuanchao's words. He accepted the money with a smile and nodded.
In the next few days, Song Yuanchao and the others gathered at the air-raid shelter before four in the morning every day, set out on time at 4:30, and closed the stall at 7:30.
Song Yuanchao took them with him on the first day, and on the second day he divided the five people into two groups.
Song Yuanchao and Gu Jie were in one group, Zhang Bin and Wang Jianjun were in another group, and Li Daqi was responsible for riding back and forth to pull goods. In addition to the vegetable market where stalls were set up on the first day, Song Yuanchao took Gu Jie to another nearby vegetable market.
It not only increases the number of visits to sales points, but also avoids the waste of too many people at one stall.
Because their products are of good quality, beautiful appearance, bright colors and affordable prices, the sales of clothes hangers are extremely hot.
Each stall can sell nearly a thousand pieces, and two stalls can sell nearly two thousand pieces. Over the past few days, it has gradually gained some fame. Residents who live far away have heard about it and come here to buy. In addition, there are many repeat customers.
This business is getting more and more prosperous.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer hangers piled in the air-raid shelter, everyone felt happy and worried at the same time.
I am happy that this business is so popular. With the current sales situation, it can be sold out in a few days at most. What I am worried about is that with the rapid reduction of goods, they will be gone after they are sold out. For this reason, Li Daqi and the others couldn't help but ask Song Yuanchao.
Instead of trying to find ways to get some raw materials, Song Yuanchao was not in a hurry and told them with a smile to wait patiently and sell all the goods on hand first. He would make his own arrangements.
On March 2, Song Yuanchao's household registration was obtained. With the household registration, he would have a grain book and tickets, which also meant that Song Yuanchao had regained his official identity in Shanghai.
Sunday, March 4th, is a good day worth celebrating.
After closing the stall in the morning, all the clothes hangers in stock were sold out. A total of 8,962 clothes hangers were sold for 3,012.35 yuan. Although this total is slightly lower than the total price originally set by Song Yuanchao, it can be considered that Song Yuanchao specially proposed a discount for customers to buy three pieces.
With their promotional methods, it’s worth it for them to be able to sell out all the hangers in such a short period of time.
According to the rules set before, Li Daqi and others are paid 5 cents for each clothes hanger, so 8,962 clothes hangers are worth 448.1 yuan.
After returning to the air-raid shelter and checking the accounts, Song Yuanchao directly gave them a round number, 120 yuan per person. After excluding the 10 yuan given to everyone on the first day, Song Yuanchao gave each person another 110 yuan.
When the thick banknotes were handed out to everyone one by one, everyone's eyes were red, their hands were shaking slightly while holding the banknotes, and they couldn't even believe that they had earned the money by themselves.
"Woo... Wu Wu..." Wang Jianjun, a young man, squatted on the ground and started crying, wiping his tears and bursting into tears. It was not easy.
Wang Jianjun's family situation is difficult, many of his brothers and sisters live in poor living conditions, and he didn't save much money when he went to the countryside. When he returned to Shanghai, he had no job and had nothing to do at home every day. It was okay at first, but as time went by, his family began to treat him badly.
Although he didn't say it, Wang Jianjun knew that his brothers, sisters, including his parents, looked down on him and considered him a burden.
This is true even for those friends, neighbors, and relatives. In the eyes of these people, Wang Jianjun is a waste who has no job and no future. He comes back from other places and takes up space at home, and only lives at home to make a living.
In fact, this is not only true for Wang Jianjun, Li Daqi, Zhang Bin, and Gu Jie. Which of these educated youths did not contribute their most precious youth to the country? They left their hometown with passion and ideals to go to unfamiliar rural areas, and struggled there for many years.
Now that I have returned to my hometown, I have become a redundant person?
Wang Jianjun's crying made everyone feel sad, and Song Yuanchao's eyes couldn't help but turn red, because everyone was thinking the same thing at this time.
"There will be bread, there will be milk, there will be everything. Jianjun, you should be happy now, why are you crying?"
"I'm happy to help the DPRK." Wang Jianjun wiped his tears, feeling a little embarrassed.
"A man who bleeds but doesn't shed tears!" Song Yuanchao patted him heavily on the shoulder and said to him and everyone present: "These days will get better gradually. Now is just the beginning. If you believe me, I promise that it will get better in the future."
It’s getting better and better.”
"Thank you, thank you for aiding Korea! It's a joke for everyone." Wang Jianjun wiped away his tears and smiled, holding the banknotes in his hands. The grievances he had been feeling in his heart these days were wiped away. 120 yuan, this is ordinary
Young people earned more than three months' salary in less than ten days.
The same is true for other people. In just ten days, everyone has earned more than three months' salary of ordinary people with their own hands. It proves that they are not just freeloaders and are valuable. This is for them.
Returning to my hometown has always been the greatest recognition for people who are confused about the future.
After distributing the money, Song Yuanchao asked everyone to have a good rest for two days and wait for his notice. Then everyone left the air-raid shelter with a little reluctance. Song Yuanchao left last. He cleaned the inside, turned off the lights, locked the door of the air-raid shelter and walked briskly.
