"This is simple."
Ding Fan rolled his eyes and had an idea: "Zhang Fuhai still has some goods. Since we are asked to do something, we will get some blood, so let's ask him to take out all the goods."
"Yeah!"
Liu Quan cheered up: "We can't let him just watch the show and drink our blood. Now he also has to pay some interest!"
With that said, he picked up the phone and called Zhang Fuhai.
"What? You want my gastrodia elata? I won't give it to you!"
On the other end of the phone, in a hotel outside the pier, Zhang Fuhai was drinking with his men. He quit immediately after hearing Liu Quan's words.
"Mr. Zhang, we have done everything you asked, but now dozens of people are waiting outside the door to get the goods. If you don't support us, we will have no choice but to find Yao Jinshan and that Li...Li What’s done!”
"Are you threatening me?" Zhang Fuhai slapped the cup on the table, startling the diners in the store, and they all looked over.
"It's okay, I'm just telling the truth. After all, we also rely on our neighbors for food. There are so many people blocking the door, and there's nothing we can do.
If you don’t believe me, ask someone to come over and take a look. I’m not going to lie to you. "
Hearing what Liu Quan said, Zhang Fuhai finally looked a little better. Thinking about it, this guy didn't dare to lie to him.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "I still have four thousand kilograms of goods here. You can pull it yourself. However, the price will increase by another dollar."
"Still going up? Mr. Zhang..."
"Come and pull it if you want, don't pull it down."
Dududu~
"Fuck, this black-hearted dog has gained another weight!" Liu Quan curled his lips as he listened to the blind voice on the phone.
"It's okay, we'll just follow along."
Ding Fan didn't care, but smiled. They would not make any less money.
After saying that, he stood up and strode out.
"Let's go pick up the money!"
.......
"Hey, this is a supermarket, right?"
Li Xiucheng asked, pointing to an unbranded shop on the roadside.
Yao Jinshan nodded: "Yes, this self-selected supermarket has just been around for two years. It has a wide range of products and is quite convenient! However, I remember Xingrong also has one!"
"Yes, there is, but it's just a larger canteen, not this big!"
Li Xiucheng walked inside with great interest. This supermarket was quite large, with an area of about 100 to 150 square meters. It was similar in size to the chain supermarkets at the entrance of ordinary residential areas in later generations.
Of course, there are still some differences. The decoration is shabby, the lights are dim, the shelves are rough, the product types are single, and both the style and packaging are quite... rustic, and there is no fresh food section.
After walking around in a circle, they grabbed a handful of gummies and picked out two bottles of yellow glass bottle soda, and then they went out.
Taking a sip of soda outside the station, Li Xiucheng asked, "Old Yao, what else do you do besides the timber business?"
"There is a small furniture factory, and my wife also manages a few teahouses, so I can't make much money."
"At least both of these are quite safe and there is no risk." Li Xiucheng felt the beating taste on the tip of his tongue and suddenly said: "Then do you want to cooperate?"
Yao Jinshan hurriedly swallowed the soda, "What cooperation?"
"That's it!" Li Xiucheng shook the glass bottle!
Yao Jinshan was stunned: "Making soda?"
“No, supermarket!”
"Can this... make money?"
Yao Jinshan's question can be answered by anyone in future generations. Li Xiucheng knows the inside way better because in his previous life, there was a small supermarket chain under his company.
If you think about the foreign retail giants that poured into China in 1997, as well as the Internet giants of later generations, you will know that they have not monopolized online and then spent huge sums of money to conquer the offline retail industry.
Finally, large shopping malls, supermarket chains, and convenience stores, which one lacks the shadow of a giant?
No!
You must know that it was already the prosperous Internet era, prices were transparent, and profits of various commodities were declining.
What now?
This is a time when demand for goods exceeds supply, a time when an electronic watch can be sold for a sky-high price, and a piece of printed clothing can cost a worker a month's salary. This is a time when supermarkets and other physical stores are making a lot of money.
Compared with simply making money, Li Xiucheng considered it more profoundly and comprehensively.
First, the cost of opening a supermarket is low now. There are fewer types of products, store rents are cheap, and labor is cheap.
Second, the risk is low. There is basically no competition now. Find a place with many people to open a store, and add a little bit of decoration and management concepts from the previous life to ensure that business is booming and no one can match it.
Third, the faster your business develops, the more funds will be needed. Whether it is real estate in Wuhu City or research and development of high-tech development, a large amount of funds will be invested. Opening a supermarket can quickly gather cash to accumulate funds, and you can also get credit during the payment settlement period, which greatly enriches your cash flow.
The fourth is to allow yourself to take the initiative.
Once a supermarket grows in scale, it is equivalent to mastering the market terminal, and it will be convenient for promoting products or selling other people's goods in the future. It can even bring some unexpected benefits, such as the most inconspicuous and key product in the supermarket, candy!
You can decide which factories to go to for the job. Don’t underestimate this. Sometimes it’s really useful to use it as a favor or something.
The fifth point is also incidental. Yao Jinshan is a pretty good person. Cooperation can bring the two of them closer and help him make money. Why not do it.
As for Yao Jinshan's questions, Li Xiucheng didn't explain too much. He just took him along and analyzed the profits of some common products and the idea of massive store expansion through the chain model. Yao Jinshan's eyes immediately lit up.
Finally, he murmured: "One store earns 50,000 yuan a year, and a hundred stores earns 5 million a year!"
Hiss~
5 million! This! "
"Yes, and stores that are not making money can be closed down and reopened in new locations. If you open a mass-produced store to share the risk, as long as you control the rhythm, the risk is basically zero!"
Yao Jinshan stopped leaving, turned around and looked at Li Xiucheng, and said excitedly: "Brother, this idea is really amazing, tell me what we should do!"
Seeing the passerby looking over, Li Xiucheng hurriedly pulled him forward.
"No hurry, get in the car first and let's talk slowly."
The car was parked not far away. He was already a little tired after walking for so long, but Yao Jinshan was full of energy as if he had been given a shot of blood.
After a few steps, he ran to the car and sat down without driving. Yao Jinshan turned sideways and said, "Tell me how the plan will proceed."
Seeing his anxious look, Li Xiucheng said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "It's actually very simple! Rent a store in a crowded place, make it slightly larger, then decorate it in a unified style, and design a simple and eye-catching LOGO.
Oh, the LOGO is a signboard, just like our red flag. People know at a glance that it represents our country.
This LOGO should also be memorable, so that you will know it is our supermarket as soon as you see it. "
"As for the products, we will contact the manufacturers to produce them, ship them directly to supermarkets and put them on the shelves, and then settle the payment regularly..."
After telling Yao Jinshan roughly the steps in the supermarket, Li Xiucheng waited until he had digested it before saying, "How is it?"
"Okay, okay, I'm willing to do this plan! Tell me, brother, how to cooperate?"
