Reborn Tokyo Golden Age.

Chapter 13 Make Money

It only took half a day from going to the garbage dump to search for treasures, and finally assembling the two electrical appliances.

It was still early, and the two of them decided to try their luck in the afternoon because they couldn't bear it.

Of course, in order to look better, Bai Chuanfeng and Kotaro found cardboard boxes and repacked the two electrical appliances.

These materials are not lacking for Kashiwagi and Tiger Taro who work in the warehouse, and the leftover scraps are enough for them.

If you want to say where there are the most electrical appliances stores and the largest flow of people, of course it is the famous Akihabara Electric Street.

Since the 40s, there have been concentrated stores selling various electrical parts, as well as tape recorders that were popular at that time, and then gradually developed into an electrical commercial street.

I don't know when the saying "Akihabara's electrical appliances are the cheapest" spread, and it attracted many consumers to go there.

TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines, which are called the three major artifacts by RB people, as well as game consoles, audio, and video recorders that are popular among teenagers, are all there.

With the emergence of the cluster effect, there are naturally second-hand electrical appliances stores that specialize in second-hand equipment.

Arakawa District is not far from Akihabara, about five or six kilometers away in a straight line, and it takes more than ten minutes to get there by taking the JY Yamanote Line.

Shirakawa Kaede and Kotaro hugged the cardboard boxes and went out, needless to say, as for Kashiwagi, they must have gone to the bubble shop in Shinjuku on the rare rest day.

Generally, the fine tea is only five or six hundred yen, and the new tea will be a little more expensive, about one thousand yen.However, these teas are only tasted by low-level wage earners, and those high-end ones are almost the same with a few zeros behind them.

Prices have not soared these days, and there is no consumption tax, which is quite friendly to bachelors like Kashiwagi.

Of course, Bai Mu told him these things, and it was definitely not Bai Chuanfeng's intentional inquiry.

Walk 200 meters from Akihabara Subway Station to the destination, Kotobuki Appliances Store, BIC CAMERA (camera shop), Dynamic Audio (audio),…

All kinds of electrical signboards are hanging on the wall, and there is a stream of people below, with occasional singing from karaoke on both sides.

"It's really lively." Kotaro likes to join in the fun. Seeing such a prosperous scene, a pair of thick eyebrows slightly raised, and his eyes were full of spirits.

It's lively, it means that there is a large flow of people.Then presumably the shops here are not short of business.

"Let's go" Bai Chuanfeng took the lead, and the two walked around holding the box, sometimes Bai Chuanfeng would pretend to inquire about the price.

After a while, he knew what to expect, and began to look for targeted stores.

As soon as I turned the corner at the intersection, I saw a white three-story building with a huge blue signboard on the wall, "Hand Off".

Under the store name, "We buy used gear" is written in English, and it is also accompanied by some audio and home appliance logos.

Bai Chuanfeng and Tiger Taro looked at each other, and it was here.

Pushing open the glass door, "Welcome", before I saw anyone, the shopping guide's greeting came to my ears.

Soon an employee in a blue and white uniform came over, "What can I do for you, gentlemen?"

Bai Chuanfeng patted the box in his hand, "We want to appraise something, can I trouble the manager of your store to entertain you?"

The shopping guide smiled politely, and was not at all unhappy because Bai Chuanfeng asked to see the store manager as soon as he came up, "Please wait a moment, please go inside and rest for a while."

There is a special reception room here. While waiting, Bai Chuanfeng roughly looked at the prices of other electrical appliances in the store, and divided them according to the type and quality very carefully.

After a while, a middle-aged man in a black suit knocked on the door and came in, "Hello, I am the manager and owner of our store, Masaaki Ishikawa. Please take care of me."

As soon as they met, they bowed respectfully and introduced themselves with business cards in hand, and they didn't show any arrogance because Bai Chuanfeng and Kotaro were dressed in ordinary clothes.

Tsk tsk, I have to say that Little RB has really achieved the ultimate in the service industry.

Seeing what he said, Kotaro coaxed him into a smile.

He was so enthusiastic, so the two of them naturally returned the gift seriously. It's not surprising that there are many people who give gifts, RB people pay attention to this.

After explaining the purpose of coming, Ishikawa Masaaki also began to carefully check the things that Bai Chuanfeng and the others brought, not letting go of any details.

If you are a second-hand store, you must have the ability to identify, otherwise you will be cheated, and the store will be closed sooner or later.

When Ishikawa Masaaki checked, Bai Chuanfeng was also a little apprehensive, there should be no flaws in the place he moved.

Check that the appearance is correct, and then turn on the power to debug various functions, and confirm that the two electrical appliances can work.Ishikawa Masaaki nodded to Bai Chuanfeng and the others, "The color is not bad, and all functions are normal."

Bai Chuanfeng heaved a sigh of relief, but luckily he didn't notice that the prices of those that have been dismantled and those that have not been dismantled are completely different.

"I don't know Bai Chuan-san, how much do you plan to sell it for?" Ishikawa Masaaki did not ask the price first, but asked Bai Chuanfeng first.

This is actually a test, to see if Bai Chuanfeng understands it.If Bai Chuanfeng hesitated to say a price that was not very firm, then he would unceremoniously raise the Dragon Slaying Saber.

"Ishikawa-san, the brand-new price of this Panasonic 18-inch TV is 148000 yen. Although mine is not brand-new, its condition is at least [-]% new, and it can be rated as A-grade or even SA-grade.

I think a 10%-15% discount off the original price is a reasonable price.Of course, considering that Ishikawa also wants to do business, it can be reduced by another 5-10 percentage points. "

As soon as Ishikawa Masaaki finished speaking, Bai Chuanfeng began to talk eloquently.Just a joke, I didn't do it in vain for such a long time of preparation.

The second-hand store will evaluate and grade the recycled products, and if they are more than 95% new and intact, they will be rated as SA grade. Grade A is a beautiful product with slight signs of use and no wear and tear.By analogy, the details can be divided into five levels.

"It turns out that Bai Chuan-san is an insider, so I'm rude." After listening to Bai Chuanfeng's words, Ishikawa Masaaki bowed his body again first, and then regained his businessman's shrewdness.

Seeing the ceremony is an apology for the temptation just now, but the business needs to be discussed.

"Since Bai Chuan-san is knowledgeable, I'll just say it straight. Although the quality of this TV is really good, the update iteration of electronic products is too fast.

They are depreciating from the moment they leave the counter, and the A-grade appearance that Shirakawa-san just said is acceptable for grading luxury goods, but it is not suitable for electrical products.

Therefore, I feel that a 60% reduction on the original basis is a reasonable price. "

Masaaki Ishikawa looks polite, but he is relentless in bargaining the price, and he makes more than half of it when he makes a move.

"Ishikawa-san, although this TV is not the latest model, it is still not outdated, and it is still popular, isn't it?
Also, what we do with Ishikawa-san is not a one-off business. "After speaking, Bai Chuanfeng glanced at Masaaki Ishikawa with very meaningful eyes.

Sure enough, when Ishikawa Masaaki heard the last sentence, he immediately regained his spirits, "What does Shirakawa-san mean...?"

Well, yes, that's what you think.Bai Chuanfeng winked at him.

Ishikawa Masaaki received the signal, and his attitude became more respectful, "I don't know where Bai Chuan-san is employed?"

"Cough..." Bai Chuanfeng cleared his throat and glanced out of the door, Shi Chuanzheng understood instantly, got up and closed the door immediately.

Bai Chuanfeng leaned forward, lowered his voice, "We work in warehousing and logistics", and gave Ishikawa Masaaki a look that you understand.

Ishikawa Masaaki understood, and he suddenly realized that it was so.

If you want to say which part of the product is most likely to be "damaged or scrapped", of course it is warehousing and logistics.

There will always be damage to the goods in the process of handling or transportation. As for whether the damage is real or fake, you know everything.

So where did the damaged goods end up? Ishikawa Masaaki looked at the TV in front of him and thought that maybe we need to talk again.

"Ishikawa-san, the goods I ship here can even provide after-sales service in the future."

"After-sales service?"

"That's right, if you have any questions, please contact me. I will arrange maintenance and maintenance within one year."

This is another trump card that Bai Chuanfeng has brought out. How about it? The second-hand shop also provides after-sales service these days. I haven't seen it before.

Ishikawa Masaaki had never seen it before, and Bai Chuanfeng's guarantee even opened up new ideas for him.Can I do the same in my future marketing strategy?
Ishikawa Masaaki was moved, "Shirakawa-san, if all the goods in the future can guarantee this kind of quality, and provide the after-sales service you mentioned.

Then I am willing to accept a discount of about 55% on the basis of the original price. The newer the style, the higher the price.

This is already my reserve price, after all, the risk is on my side. "

Bai Chuanfeng thought for a while, considering that he would do long-term business in the future, so he nodded in agreement.

Electronic products are indeed updated too fast. Of course, the same product will not fluctuate too much until there is no revolutionary improvement.

Besides, these are all excessive, and it is reasonable to save up a sum of money early.

So the two parties were happy and left each other's contact information. Bai Chuanfeng gave Bai Mu the address where he lived, so he would not fill in the school dormitory foolishly.

In line with the first transaction, Masaaki Ishikawa also gave a very favorable price, 88000 yen for the TV, and 4000 yen for the cooking machine because it was easy to sell.

Now is the time when people's desire to buy is strong, and Masaaki Ishikawa is not worried about whether he can sell it at all.He even said that as much as Bai Chuanfeng can get, he can eat as much, and he is not the only shop.

After this back and forth, 9 yen was credited to the account. Kotaro's face turned red with excitement, and the tip of his nose was covered with fine beads of sweat.

As soon as he left the store, he just grabbed Bai Chuanfeng's wrist, "Xiaofeng! Xiaofeng! Money! A lot of money!"

"Haha" Bai Chuanfeng also laughed happily, "Korataro, as I said, there will be bigger and better TVs in the future."

"That's right." Now Tiger Taro firmly believed in Bai Chuanfeng's words. Others didn't know, but he knew very well that this business was almost costless.

The only cost is the pile of broken garbage. Think of such a large garbage dump, even the garbage dumps in Tokyo.Tiger Taro wished he could sleep there tonight.

More than 9 yen, that is, nine ten thousand yuan bills.

The current [-]-yuan bill is not Fukuzawa Yukichi, but Prince Shotoku.

Bai Chuanfeng took out one and shook it facing the sun, "Please take care of me in the future, Prince Shotoku."

"Take care of me!" Tiger Taro cheered.

　happy New Year!
