When Su Mingcheng and Su Mingzhe woke up at noon, they found that they were the only two children left at home.
Su Mingyu was still young and didn't like playing with her second brother Su Mingcheng, so she clamored to find her eldest brother.
Su Mingcheng was also thinking about going to Guanqian Street to see what fun his elder brother had in setting up a stall, so he immediately walked towards Guanqian Street with Su Mingyu.
At this moment, Su Mingzhe started to get nervous in his stall.
Because the weather is relatively muggy, there are not many customers yet.
When Su Mingcheng brought Su Mingyu over, he saw a cloth banner with white characters on a black background standing next to his eldest brother's stall. The banner had four big characters "You can't guess" written on it.
When Su Mingcheng saw these four words, he immediately became interested and asked curiously: "Brother, what do you mean by writing these four words?"
"It literally means attracting customers."
When Su Mingzhe saw his younger brother and sister coming, he explained casually: "If you buy something for one yuan at my stall, you can play the 'Immortal Guidance' game. If you win, you can choose any of the ten from my stall."
items.”
"What if you lose?"
"Put down the mortgage."
"Brother, how do you play this?"
Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu both looked at their elder brother curiously, finding it quite interesting.
"I'll give you a play."
Su Mingzhe also had nothing to do, so he took out one yuan and fifty cents and asked Su Mingcheng to buy three bottles of soda.
When Su Mingcheng came back with the soda, Su Mingzhe turned the three bowls upside down on an unfolded red cloth.
"There are a total of three glass balls in these three bowls. Just guess the number of glass balls in the bowl. If you guess correctly, you will win."
After hearing this, Su Mingcheng became more playful. He couldn't help but have a touch of restlessness on his face, and asked: "Brother, can I guess now?"
"Guess, you can't guess anyway."
Su Mingzhe chuckled. He had the system space to cheat, and he could still make you guess. That would be really weird.
Su Mingcheng opened a bowl and saw a glass ball inside, so he guessed one.
But Su Mingzhe gently touched it with his hand, and the quantity inside changed.
When Su Mingcheng opened it and looked at it again, he realized that he had guessed wrong.
After guessing several times in a row and missing once, Su Mingcheng became addicted and had so much fun that even the soda in his hand could no longer attract his interest.
Su Mingyu also guessed several times, but of course she never got it right.
The purpose of this stall is to be popular.
Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu were squatting and playing here. Other passers-by and tourists saw them and slowly gathered around them.
Su Mingzhe's business just started.
Most of these customers are young people, and a few are children. Most of the older ones are well-informed and will not gamble for such a small thing.
Su Mingzhe has four signs in total to attract customers.
First, the game "The Immortal Guidance" is an attractive gimmick and the most important part.
The gadgets that He Yuzhu sets up a stall are basically the same as those in the store, and the prices are relatively cheap.
This is also the reason why customers are willing to buy.
In addition, the third point is that He Yuzhu has written the rules long ago. If tourists know the characters, they will know how to play. It is simple and convenient. There is no need to be afraid of being cheated and they can play boldly.
The fourth point is that there are loopholes in the rules written by He Yuzhu.
For example, He Yuzhu stated that as long as he bought something for one yuan, he could play it, and the mortgaged items were items purchased from the stalls.
There is no regulation on the value or quantity of items that need to be pledged to play the game.
For example, if the other party spends one yuan and buys ten glass balls, and takes out one glass ball, he can also play a game.
Even if he loses, he still has nine glass balls left in his hand.
This kind of loophole was actually exposed intentionally by He Yuzhu.
As the old saying goes, what you buy is not what you sell.
Only if Su Mingzhe exposes such a loophole will attract more people to play.
After all, the items on these stalls are all wholesale. The wholesale price of a glass ball is only 5 cents. If you sell it for 10 cents, you will make double the profit.
There are other items, most of which are double the profit.
It's around three o'clock in the afternoon, after opening.
The business basically continued continuously, and it ended around seven o'clock when the sun went down.
The goods Su Mingzhe bought today were sold at 70 to 80%, with a profit of more than 60 yuan, almost double the cost.
Seeing that there were still many customers gathered in front of the stall, Su Mingzhe had to pack up the stall and prepare to go home because the sun was about to set.
"Thank you for your support. I will come back tomorrow afternoon to continue setting up a stall. I hope everyone will continue to support me."
Su Mingzhe said a few words, closed the stall, rode a big bar, and left with his younger brothers and sisters.
When I got home, it was inevitable that I would be asked by Su Daqiang and Zhao Meilan about the results of setting up the stall.
Before Su Mingzhe could answer, Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu excitedly explained thoroughly how their eldest brother made money.
These two little guys.
"Boss, where did you learn to do tricks?"
When Su Daqiang heard Su Mingcheng say that his son made more than 100 yuan a day (profit and principal added up to more than 100 yuan), his eyes turned red with envy. What his son earned in one day was comparable to his monthly salary.
In other words, Su Mingzhe is his biological son. Otherwise, Su Daqiang would have thought of overthrowing Su Mingzhe and starting the business himself.
"There used to be a juggler in front of our school. I figured it out after seeing it myself."
Su Mingzhe's tone was calm and calm, and he was completely unaware of how magical his magic tricks were in front of ordinary people.
Su Daqiang curled his lips and didn't believe it: "Look at what the boss said. Watch other people's performances and you will figure it out yourself."
Su Mingzhe saw that the whole family was staring at him curiously, so he had to show it to his family: "The so-called juggling and magic are not that magical. Apart from preparing props, the most important thing is quick eyes and quick hands. I will show you one, and you can
Got it, it’s very simple.”
Su Mingzhe said, taking out two unsold rubber bands from the sack.
"Look, these are two rubber bands, right? They're just ordinary rubber bands. If I hold them like this, are they locked to each other... Just look at it, hey, it's opened..."
Su Mingzhe easily performed a set of 'rubber band penetration magic', and in the eyes of his family's surprised eyes, he started teaching mode.
After a while, Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu excitedly started playing with two rubber bands.
Although Su Daqiang is still curious, his doubts have been dispelled a lot.
This magic is like this. It feels quite mysterious until you see it through.
But after the secret was leaked, everyone felt that they could do it on their own.
Zhao Meilan couldn't help but worry about this, and said: "Boss, what if someone sees through your magic trick?"
"It's okay, Mom, I've seen through it. I can at most compensate them with ten items according to the regulations. These items are cheap to purchase. Even if they are the most expensive items, the ten items added up are only a few dollars. This is a sure profit.
A losing business."
When Su Mingzhe saw his mother Zhao Meilan, his face was still worried, and he couldn't help but comforted him: "Mom, there are still profits and losses in this business. Even if I meet ten or eight experts every day, I won't lose anything. You
Just don’t worry.”
Zhao Meilan was comforted by her son. Although she was still worried, she did not stop her son from continuing to set up a stall.
After dinner, Su Mingzhe went back to his room and began to record the details of the goods sold at the stall today, which was related to the types of purchases in the future.
On the second day, after breakfast, Su Mingzhe rode his bicycle to Qimen North Street to continue purchasing goods.
This time I came back before eleven o'clock. I went to the market management office first and paid the stall fee for today before going home.
Now in August, schools are on summer vacation, and only senior high school students are making up classes.
Su Daqiang, the librarian, is like a sheep. Even if he doesn't show up for a day, no one will check on him, so he skips work and goes home on time to cook for his children at 11:30 every day.
Su Mingzhe had lunch, did not take a nap, and came to his stall with his things.
With the booming business yesterday, the owners of several nearby stalls are familiar with Su Mingzhe. They are not jealous or anything, at least they are polite when they talk.
This is the most basic respect for those who are capable and capable.
Su Mingzhe naturally understood the principle of making money by being friendly, and he was laughing and chatting with several people setting up stalls around him.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Mingcheng came again with Su Mingyu.
With the help of the two little ones, it quickly became popular among passers-by.
At the end of the day, business was no better than yesterday.
Su Mingzhe did the math and found that today's profit was about one hundred dollars, dozens of dollars more than yesterday.
In the blink of an eye, a week passed and it was mid-August.
Now his daily income is stable at more than 200 yuan. After nearly ten days of saving, Su Mingzhe has more than 2,000 yuan in his hands.
There are profits from setting up stalls, and there are also rewards of more than 800 yuan for system sign-in every day.
In addition, the skill [Baguazhang] was once again upgraded with experience points. At L4, the blood mist given by the system experience points helped improve his physical condition and made Su Mingzhe grow taller.
Fortunately, Su Mingzhe went out early and came back late every day, so his family paid less attention to him, but no abnormality was found.
Su Mingcheng felt that his elder brother was becoming more and more dignified. He spoke in an old-fashioned way and was a little harsh on himself, but he was particularly protective of his younger sister.
If Su Mingzhe hadn't given Su Mingcheng pocket money every day, Su Mingcheng would have thought of suing his parents.
"Brother, we are here."
On this day, Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu came to the stall to help again. After a week of training, this kid became particularly eloquent and seemed to have activated his talent of 'profiteer'.
Su Mingzhe is not a shady boss. Since his brother helped, he will give a 'commission' and give Su Mingcheng two yuan of pocket money every day.
It was precisely because of the two yuan of pocket money as an incentive that Su Mingcheng worked diligently every day to help Su Mingzhe look after the stall.
The little girl Su Mingyu is also learning to greet the guests. With her cute and pink face, many guests gathered around her without saying a word.
Su Mingzhe was afraid that such a beautiful girl would be kidnapped, so he pulled her close to him and refused to let her leave him.
"Go buy three bottles of soda."
When Su Mingzhe saw his younger brothers and sisters coming, he handed Su Mingcheng one dollar and fifty cents.
Soon Su Mingcheng came back after buying soda. The three siblings sat down and looked at the stall.
Su Mingcheng asked Su Mingzhe for advice on the method of "immortal guidance".
In the world of "Love in the Courtyard", He Yuzhu learns tricks from the Xingyiquan master.
Nowadays, Su Mingzhe uses it to attract business, which can be regarded as a living learning and application.
Su Mingcheng had a good mind and nimble hands and feet. He had many little tricks. After learning them for a few days, he was able to play them decently.
Of course, at his level, he can fool ordinary people, but anyone with sharp eyes can easily see through it.
Soon, business came to your door.
Su Mingzhe hurriedly greeted him, saying that this business requires "diligence" and "harmony".
Diligence means being diligent and taking the trouble to treat customers.
Harmony means being harmonious brings wealth, being harmonious and being shameless.
For example, if someone spits on your face, you have to wipe it clean and then continue your sales pitch.
Being shameless is the essence of a businessman.
It is precisely because of having endured so many hardships and suffered so many sins when running a small business that when he becomes successful in the future, a businessman's mentality will be inflated and he will be able to be 'cruel and ruthless'. He can be indifferent and callous towards employees and the poor.
