Chapter 029 Unsaleable Potatoes and Sale Chicken Drumsticks
Wang Yan didn't notice Xiao Nizi's subtle expression, but his attention was attracted by the magical scene outside the market.
"Potatoes are sold cheaply, a bag costs five yuan!"
"The freshest frozen chicken legs are 2 yuan each. Buy ten and get one free."
"Loss-making sale. Tomatoes have sky-rocketing prices. Come and take a look. Come and buy."
...
Are there more people hawking than buying things? Wang Yan was stunned for a moment. He saw the hawking sounds coming and going one after another, but the customers seemed to be falling asleep. It was rare for anyone to come out alive, and they were still pointing at the fish.
Went to the stall.
The eldest brother who sells potatoes is a husband and wife. They carry a cart full of potatoes, not many bags of which are sold. The two of them are squatting on the side of the road, with sad faces on their faces. They look very pitiful.
The people nearby selling chicken legs and wings, as well as tomatoes and sweet potatoes, were not in any better condition than them.
The price reduction of other ingredients did not appeal to Wang Yan, but it was quite surprising that these potatoes were so cheap.
Wang Yan walked towards the couple and wanted to ask if the potatoes were really as cheap as he said.
A bag of potatoes costs only five yuan. It looks like this bag of potatoes weighs about ten kilograms. How many cents per kilogram are you paying? These potatoes are so cheap.
Potatoes are a very good ingredient. They can be used to make starch or potato flour. The most important thing is that potatoes can be used directly as ingredients, such as fried potatoes, potato slices, spicy roasted potatoes, crispy and delicious.
Just drooling.
There is another potato food that both adults and children love to eat, and that is French fries.
French fries, as the name suggests, are an imported product that has traveled across the ocean. As long as the shape and preparation of the potatoes are slightly changed, a small box of French fries can be sold for seven or eight yuan. And this bag of potatoes may be worth forty or fifty boxes.
There's nothing wrong with the French fries.
5 yuan can be turned into more than 200 yuan in a second, all you need is some refined oil, salt and pepper, and a little labor cost.
Wang Yan subconsciously touched his chin. This was a good deal. Moreover, McDonald's was only available in big cities at this time, and KFC only started to spread from Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou to other surrounding cities a few years later. In small counties like theirs, unless they go to
For those who have worked in big cities, let alone eating French fries, many people have never seen or heard of them. But Wang Yan has eaten real French fries, and he happens to know how to make them.
This is the so-called business opportunity, and what it requires is uniqueness.
"Brother, do you think this bag of potatoes costs five yuan?" Wang Yan walked over and asked about the price.
"Yes, little brother, how about a bag?" Seeing the guests coming, the couple stood up from the ground.
"Approximately how many kilograms does this bag weigh?"
"A bag of twelve pounds is weighed, no more, no less. If it's less than two pounds, I'll give you double the amount." This potato seller is an honest man.
Wang Yan decided to buy all the potatoes because he didn't know what to do for the time being. It would be a good choice to get familiar with the market first.
"Then if I buy all your potatoes, will the price still be cheaper?"
As soon as Wang Yan's words came out, not only the potato seller and his wife were stunned, but Huang Guiying, who was standing next to him, thought that Wang Yan's brain had been burned out. She couldn't help but stretched out her little hand and tugged on his sleeve.
, kindly reminded: "Brother Yan, these potatoes cannot be used as food. No matter how cheap they are, we can't buy a car."
If the potatoes are stored in the cellar in winter, they may last longer, but this is summer, and the potatoes will rot within a short time.
The couple didn't know whether what Wang Yan said was true, but they still discussed it.
Wang Yan turned his head and winked at Xiao Nizi and said, "Immortals have their own magical powers. You will know when you get back."
"Really, are you kidding?" Although Wang Yan used his own money, he would not use it like this even if he had money.
"Little brother, you're not kidding us. If you really want to buy this cart of potatoes, I'll give you four hundred yuan for the whole cart." This whole cart of potatoes contains about a hundred bags. After all, it's less than
Four yuan a bag.
"Deal. Master, can you deliver the goods to your door?" If the goods are delivered to the door, Wang Yan and the others will just catch a ride when they go back.
"That's no problem. I'll deliver the things to your home and you'll pay me." Brother Tudou is an honest and down-to-earth person.
"Okay, then you wait for me for a while and I'll buy some more things."
Wang Yan followed suit and bought more than ten kilograms of cheap chicken wings and legs. Chicken wings and drumsticks cannot be bought like this, mainly because they are seasonal goods, and the family must buy an extra large freezer to store more. But Wang Yan
I bought these for experimentation. Fortunately, it wasn't much, just ten or twenty kilograms. Wang Yan bought all the stocks in one go, and also made the person who was doing the chicken legs and wings business cry with joy.
"Little brother, you are really a living Buddha. You can't be the son of some rich second generation who does good deeds. How about you buy all my tomatoes back and I'll give you a cheaper price." Because that person
Standing nearby, I saw with my own eyes that Wang Yan bought a cart of potatoes, and also bought all the chicken wings and legs.
This sentence amused Wang Yan. He looked at the man naughtily and said, "What do you think?"
Seeing this, other shopkeepers asked Wang Yan to buy their things. Wang Yan patted his pocket and said, "Next time, I ran out of money today."
Others looked disappointed and had no other choice but to hope to meet a fool like Wang Yan again.
Wang Yan went to the seasoning shop again and bought some seasonings such as fried powder, starch, pepper and salt. Then he took Huang Guiying to the car of the potato seller.
The car was a tricycle, bumpy and bumpy. Wang Yan and Huang Guiying were sitting on the potato cart. You fell to me and I fell to you. When the two of them fell together, you couldn't help but look at me. I
Look at you, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women has become a special landscape.
About forty minutes later, Wang Yan arrived home and asked Brother Tudou to help him move Tudou into the car.
Wang Yan moved all the potatoes to the yard and stacked them in piles.
The family members were all alarmed by this movement. When they saw Wang Yan asking people to bring in bags of potatoes, they thought he was crazy.
"Xiaoyan, what are you doing? There are still two bags of potatoes at home that you haven't eaten yet. Why did you buy so many more?"
Wang Yan looked at Comrade Hu with a smile and said, "Mom, this is what your son will make money for next. I will tell you in detail later."
Comrade Hu is doubtful, but he has bought all the things. What should he do? Help him move them.
"The child's father, please help quickly." Comrade Hu quickly asked his husband to help move the potatoes.
