Chapter five hundred and seventy-ninth the difficulties of the Chinese
Since it is not English, it cannot be Russian, because the foreign language learned in school now is Russian.
Yes! The one foreign language taught in all schools now is Russian.
Fangyuan didn't know about others, but Liuzi and Xiaowen could each say a few words, and even simple communication was not a problem.
"Yeah! It's not English." Liuzi nodded.
"It might be in another language, forget it, never mind, how was it today?"
"It's not bad! I sold eleven pieces of clothing in the afternoon, for a total of two hundred and twenty-five yuan."
"That's not bad." Fang Yuan nodded.
No one could sell so much in the afternoon, which is indeed very good.
In fact, Fangyuan didn't plan to make much money when buying this batch of clothing. His purpose was to attract more people to set up stalls here.
Although it has not met his expectations so far, the goal has basically been achieved.
"Boss Fang, can you lend me two of your dresses? Don't worry, I'll return them to you after I've received the goods."
While Fangyuan, Liuzi and Xiaowen were chatting with some foreigners, a young man ran over.
This young man is also the one who sets up a stall here, but he doesn't seem to have bought a lot of goods. No, he has only been selling for a few days, and some of the clothes are already out of stock.
"Forget it, let's just pay me the price you paid for it!"
"Ah! This..."
Hearing what Fangyuan said, the young man felt a little embarrassed. You must know that the clothes are not only the purchase price, but also the shipping fee!
But Fangyuan asked him for the purchase price, which was obviously a loss! How could this make him feel embarrassed?
"It's okay. I bought a lot, and even the shipping costs can't be counted on these two pieces of clothing."
"Then thank you, Boss Fang."
"You're welcome."
The young man quickly took out thirty yuan and handed it to Fangyuan. When he saw the money handed over by the young man, Fangyuan was stunned for a moment.
Then he asked: "How much does it cost you to buy something for fifteen yuan a piece?"
"Uh! Sorry, I'll give you two more yuan!"
"No, that's not what I meant. I was asking you about the purchase price."
"Yes! Boss Fang, is there any problem?"
"No problem." Fangyuan shook his head, turned around and said, "Xiao Wen, get him two dresses."
"Okay Brother Fangyuan."
How can there be no problem? The problem is huge. The price paid by young people is too high, even ridiculously high.
That's right! This dress sells for 25 yuan, but it costs 15 yuan to purchase it. This price is too high. You must know that Fangyuan's purchase price is less than 7 yuan.
But when you think about Fangyuan, you will understand how much you can put in at one time! It all adds up to hundreds of packages, but as for young people, it is estimated that the total adds up to less than one package. There is no comparison at all.
A package of clothes, depending on the type of clothing, is generally between 100 and 500 pieces. For example, a package of shirts is 500 pieces, and a package of suits is 100 pieces.
Fangyuan bought hundreds of bags at once, which was definitely a large quantity, so the price given to him was definitely cheap.
For such a big customer, just a few cents per item is a lot of money!
It's different for young people. All the clothes add up to only about one pack. This is not wholesale at all. It's almost the same as retail at most, and of course the price is much more expensive.
A dress costing fifteen yuan a piece was only a few yuan cheaper than the retail price in Yangcheng. People probably regarded him as a small businessman.
No wonder everyone sells it at the price he sells it for. If it’s too cheap, you won’t make any money. If it’s too expensive, who will buy it?
If this is the case, Fangyuan can actually set up a transfer center. In that case, not only will the purchase price be much cheaper, but also there will be no need to run back and forth.
Of course, this is only temporary, because now everyone does not have much money in their hands, and the goods they import are relatively small. When everyone has money in their hands, this transit center will not be needed.
Fangyuan kept this matter in mind and planned to plan and implement it after returning.
After going back in the evening, Fangyuan asked Liuzi to buy cold dishes and beer, and the three of them ate and drank in the main room.
"Liuzi Xiaowen, when there is no one around tomorrow morning, go tell the people setting up stalls that if anyone is out of stock, they can come to us to get it."
"Ah! Brother Fangyuan, if our goods are given to them, how much money can we make?"
"Whoever tells you that you don't make money by selling the goods to them is just a little less. But if everyone takes the goods from us, it will be more than what we make by selling it ourselves."
Hearing what Fangyuan said, Liuzi's eyes lit up and he looked at Fangyuan and said, "Brother Fangyuan, is what you said true?"
"Of course it's true, otherwise I'd be stupid!"
"Uh!" Hearing what Fangyuan said, Liuzi was stunned for a moment. Fangyuan is stupid! Just kidding, who in the whole woolen mill doesn't know Fangyuan.
If Fangyuan is said to be stupid, then there are probably no smart people out there. It could even be said that the entire woolen mill is a fool, or even worse than a fool.
The price difference between buying more goods and buying less goods is not small. Instead of letting others make money, it is better to let him make money, and they don't need to go so far to buy goods.
This not only saves manpower, but also saves travel expenses, which can be said to be beneficial.
"Brother Fangyuan, we know, we will talk about it tomorrow." Xiao Wen looked at Fangyuan and said.
"Okay!" Fang Yuan nodded, then picked up the enamel jar and said, "Here, let's drink."
"drink wine."
After eating and drinking, everyone went to take a shower separately. There was nothing we could do. We had been outside all day and we probably lost several pounds in sweat alone.
If you don't take a shower, you really can't rest. How can you sleep when your body is sticky? Fangyuan can't sleep anyway.
After taking a shower and watching TV for a while, it was already ten o'clock, and I had to go to bed at this time because I had to get up early tomorrow.
Fangyuan now drove two cars over. The Jeep was used to pull clothes back and forth, while the Lincoln was used by Fangyuan when going out.
Fangyuan got up early in the morning, punched for a while, and waited until he was sweating profusely. Then Fangyuan went to take a shower, and then drove out in the Lincoln car.
By the time Fangyuan went around and finished everything and returned to Yabao Road, Liuzi and Xiaowen had already loaded the clothes they wanted to sell today into the car.
"Brother Fangyuan, the clothes are all loaded into the car. Do you think these are enough?"
"That's enough. If you don't have enough, come back and get it when the time comes." Fangyuan glanced at the jeep and said.
"good."
Then Fangyuan drove Xiaowen to set up a stall, while Liuzi went to buy breakfast. Breakfast was a must, not only because there was still a whole morning of busy work.
The main reason is that Fangyuan and the others don't eat staple food at all in the evening. They just have some cold dishes every night, and then a ten-pound pot of cold beer.
After Fangyuan and Xiaowen set up the stall, Liuzi came over with breakfast, including steamed buns and fried dough sticks, as well as tea eggs and a pot of soy milk.
Nowadays, unlike in later generations, paper cups or plastic cups are used to fill soy milk. Now when you go to make soy milk in the morning, you have to carry the pot yourself.
Of course, this is for take away. If you eat in the store at that time, there will be a bowl available early.
"Brother Fangyuan, it's time to eat." Liuzi put the breakfast on the table, then poured the soy milk into three bowls and shouted.
"Well! Let's eat first."
To be honest, Fangyuan's life is enviable to everyone, including the people setting up stalls next to them.
Also, make breakfast early in the morning and cook vegetables from the restaurant at noon. Although I don’t know what to eat when I go back in the evening, it should be fine.
They don't dare to think about such a life. Let's not talk about how much money this day will cost. There is no place to get so many votes!
Looking at the young people setting up stalls munching on steamed buns or steamed buns, Fangyuan didn't know what to say.
He does have tickets, but he can't just give them away! Besides, even if he gives them some tickets, they won't be willing to use them!
Fangyuan and the others soon finished their breakfast, and Liuzi put away the pot, preparing to take it back for cleaning at noon.
It happened to be time to go to work, so it was quite busy at this time in the morning, and there weren’t many people there throughout the morning.
Of course, the most crowded time is at noon, because people with some money are working people, and they will rush to get off work or come to buy during their breaks.
"Brother Fangyuan, Brother Fangyuan." Just when Fangyuan sat down and was about to take a rest, Xiaowen shouted.
"Uh! What's wrong?" Fang Yuan sat up and asked.
"Those foreigners came here yesterday." Xiao Wen pointed to the front and said.
Fangyuan looked in the direction Xiaowen pointed, and it turned out to be a few foreigners.
Soon a few foreigners came over and pointed at the clothes on Fangyuan's stall and started chattering, but Fangyuan also didn't understand a word.
Of course, the few foreigners did not come directly to the Fangyuan stall, they just stood on the road and pointed and looked. When they said this, they also said to their companions around them.
"Hello!" Fang Yuan stood up from the recliner and waved to the foreigners to say hello.
"Hi!"
"You can speak English!" Fangyuan said.
"Of course." A foreigner nodded to Yuan Yuan and said.
"What language did you speak just now? Why haven't I heard it?" Fangyuan asked in English.
"Dutch."
"Oh! No wonder I haven't heard it before. It turns out to be Dutch."
Needless to say, these gringos are Dutch.
Now that China has entered the era of reform and opening up, people from many countries around the world have come here, including the Dutch.
Moreover, the Netherlands has an embassy nearby. These people should not be from the embassy, but should be looking for business opportunities.
A country that has just reformed and opened up has a lot of business opportunities. Of course, this is only for foreigners. For Chinese people, it is not a business opportunity yet.
Let’s put it this way! For example, if you build a house, you need a batch of steel bars. If you are Chinese, you have to find a way to get tickets. Without tickets, you can’t even buy steel bars.
But these do not exist for foreigners. If foreigners want to build a house and need steel bars, tickets will be delivered to their doorsteps.
This is the gap, so it is still difficult for Chinese people today, and it is countless times more difficult for foreigners to get started than foreigners.
