Chapter 276 Roast duck business, food is the most important thing for the people
The other party led Xu Jichang into the house and then to the backyard.

The backyard is not large, but it gives people a unique feeling.The whole place is clean and tidy, in sharp contrast to the mess in the front yard.

Two repaired bicycles were parked under the wall. They were polished and polished, and there was no trace of them being saved.

"Just two?"

Xu Jichang showed a disapproving look.

The other party looked at Xu Jichang with a strange look: "How many more cars do you want to buy?"

"You need four cars at least. What you have is too few."

After Xu Jichang finished speaking, he wanted to leave.

Bicycles are needed to transport raw materials and roasted ducks, and less than this number is simply not enough.

The person who led him in was shocked: he had never seen anyone buy four cars at once.

What is he planning to do?
At this time, the original car repairman also rushed over from the front yard and stopped Xu Jichang at the back door of the house: "Brother, we do only have two cars now, but we can continue to save."

The master was smiling when he spoke, obviously not wanting to miss Xu Jichang, a big customer.

"When do you want these four cars?"

"The sooner the better, no more than five days at most."

Xu Jichang said without raising his eyelids.

Faced with Xu Jichang's request, the car repairman was not sure whether he could complete it and remained silent for a while.

At this time, the person who led him in came to his senses and caught up as quickly as possible: "Five days, five days. Come here when the time comes, and I will ensure that four cars are placed in front of you."

"I'll be here in five days."

After Xu Jichang finished speaking, he left the backyard and went to the company.

……

Five days later, Xu Jichang arrived as expected and saw four bicycles lined up in the backyard.

"700 yuan, I bought it."

Xu Jichang checked it, raised his head and said to the car repairman.

The car repairman shook his head like clockwork: "No, absolutely not. We agreed on it for 210, but if I sell it to you for 700, I will lose money."

"You saved up for this car. No matter how you sell it, you will make money."

Xu Jichang spread his hands and said, "If it doesn't work, I won't buy it."

The car repairman became anxious and said: "Hey, we have finally repaired this car. Why don't you buy it if you don't want to buy it..."

The other two assemblers were also very unhappy, and they were all looking at Xu Jichang eagerly.

Xu Jichang was unmoved, with a relaxed and calm expression: "What the hell, you still want to buy and sell by force?"

The other party was stunned for a moment when they heard this. They all looked at Xu Jichang and exchanged glances with each other.

"Seven hundred is seven hundred, just make a friend."

The car repairman sighed and said helplessly, "We guarantee repairs in half a year. If there is a problem, just come to us with your car in the alley."

"The repair is free, and you pay for the parts yourself."

"Okay, here you go."

Xu Jichang took out a wad of bills from his pocket and handed it to the other party, "Ready."

The car mechanic took the money, and the other two people came up together, watching him with wide eyes as he counted the money one by one.

Too much, really too much.

They have never done such a big deal at once.

In the past, those who bought cars basically bought one bicycle. Occasionally, some owners who were not short of money bought two at a time.

Even if Xu Jichang bargained harder, this would still be a very large amount of money for them.

At this time, Xu Jichang had already held the handle of one of the bicycles: "Tie the other three to the back seat, and I'll ride them back."

"Okay, wait a moment."

Three people, including the car repairman, immediately got to work, finding straps for him to tie up the car.

The 28 big bar is good for this, it has strong cargo carrying capacity.

The three bicycles were tied securely behind and there was no danger of them falling.

Xu Jichang pushed his bicycle across the yard and started riding in the alley.

After making sure there was no one around, he got out of the car and stored all the bicycles in the space.

Four cars would be too conspicuous to drive through the city, so it would be better to keep a low profile.

When he got home in the evening, Xu Jichang took out four bicycles from the space and parked them in the yard.

Lan Qimei was shocked when she saw these bicycles: "Did you really get so many?"

"Is that still fake?"

"With these cars, it will be more convenient to do business later."

Xu Jichang led Lan Qimei to the bicycle, pointed at the car and said, "Have you prepared a stall selling roast duck?"

"At the suburban market. And when our chef goes to cook for others, he can sell some by the way."

"But as you said, let's start by frying melon seeds. Once the scale is established, we can make roast duck and chicken."

Lan Qimei caressed the rear seat of the bicycle with her hands.

……

Early two days later, Lan Qimei called several chefs and rode bicycles with them to work in the color steel house in Tong County.

Tong County is more than 30 kilometers away from where they currently live, and it takes two hours by bicycle.

But for people now, this distance is nothing.

Not to mention cycling there, it’s not a big deal even if you just walk there.

Wok, pumpkin seeds, coal…

The back seat of the bicycle is full of various materials, fuel, and tools.

Xu Jichang did not go there with Lan Qimei and the others.

Today, the original landlord vacated the house. He was going to clean up the house and move his furniture in to prepare for Fang Runsu to move in.

Xu Jichang has been busy since he got up in the morning.

Du Xiaojing wanted to help, but Xu Jichang did not agree and asked him to read in peace.

Because Xu Jichang didn't have much confidence in Du Xiaojing's level.He was worried that Du Xiaojing would relax and fail the exam in the end.

Xu Jichang was busy until noon, then he finished moving, cleaned the house and went to work at the company.

He has the final say over the Pioneer Distribution Company now, and there is no concept of being late for him.

Upon arriving at the company, Xu Jichang told Fang Runsu that she could move in and asked her to come with her children in the evening.

"How can you, a grown man, do such a thing as cleaning the house?"

After Fang Runsu learned about it, he apologized as if he had neglected his duty, "Just tell me and I will clean it."

"Everything is done, let's go eat."

Xu Jichang didn't say anything, he just held Fang Runsu's hand in hand.

Love is always feeling indebted.

Xu Jichang felt that Fang Runsu and his daughter had suffered so many grievances, and he should do more for them now.

Fang Runsu gently freed his hand and pursed his lips shyly: "I'm at work, so I'm not afraid of people seeing me."

"If you see it, you see it. Who dares to tell it?"

Xu Jichang didn't care about Tao at all.

An important reason that prompted Xu Jichang to leave Dongfang Fertilizer Factory and start a business was that from now on, no one would be in charge.At Dongfang Fertilizer Factory, there were several levels above him, and he had to be a good person with his tail between his legs from time to time.

It's different here, there are not so many restrictions, and everyone can move a lot more freely.

After having lunch with Fang Runsu, Xu Jichang took her out for a while and returned to the office before going to work in the afternoon.

As usual, there is not much work today. As usual, the orders for trading of daily necessities only need to be negotiated by the salesmen.

If approval is needed, Xu Jichang basically leaves it to Fang Runsu to do it for him. Anyway, the amounts of these orders are not large.

Fang Runsu now holds the title of office director of Pioneer Distribution Company, although she has no one under her.

In the original Dongfang Fertilizer Factory, this should be a full-time official.It's just that Pioneer Distribution Company is a collective enterprise, and there is no such thing as a level. What everyone cares about is the bonus.

In the afternoon, Chen Xiaoen came to Xu Jichang's office and expressed that he wanted to talk to him alone about something.

Xu Jichang understood that [-]% of this was related to the electrical appliance repair business.

"Go ahead."

Walking downstairs to the office, Xu Jichang walked slowly with Chen Xiaoen and asked her, "Is there something new in the maintenance business?"

"I still can't beat you."

Chen Xiaoen smiled in admiration, "In the past two days, I asked them to purchase second-hand electrical appliances, repair and refurbish them, and then sell them."

Speaking of this, she was worried about being misunderstood by Xu Jichang, so she quickly emphasized: "Of course, the price is much lower than the first-hand price, and I explained it in advance. I will not do anything to deceive people."

Naturally, Xu Jichang would not doubt Chen Xiaoen: "Yes, the profit should be much greater than that of simple maintenance, right?"

"Yeah. Based on the income in these two days, the net profit in a month can exceed [-]."

When Chen Xiaoen was asked this question by Xu Jichang, excitement and pride flashed in his eyes, "We both got rich."

In fact, I have already become rich.

Xu Jichang recited something silently in his heart.

"Have you ever considered another option? Dismantle the second-hand appliances and sell the accessories separately."

Xu Jichang looked at Chen Xiaoen and gave a hint.

"Selling accessories..."

Chen Xiaoen didn't expect that this kind of gameplay could be played, so he thought about it quietly.

Saving the parts and selling the complete machine, or dismantling the complete machine and selling accessories are both ways to make money.

Buying is not as good as selling. As long as you control the price, you can make a lot of money with both methods.

Like the three people who sold bicycles before, they did the first type.Xu Jichang chose the second option.

"I think this method is very good. We buy and sell in bulk, and the pricing power is in our own hands."

After thinking for a long time, Chen Xiaoen said happily, "Many small parts themselves are not expensive, and customers are not sensitive to adding a few cents to the price."

"But for us, this is huge profit."

"That's the truth."

Xu Jichang looked like a coward and pointed forward, "I heard that another house over there is vacant."

"I'll go talk tomorrow and see if the other party is willing to rent it to us. Open an electrical repair shop near here."

"Row!"

Chen Xiaoen had an excited look on his face.

……

In the following days, nothing happened in the company, but Xu Jichang was still very busy.

Helping Fang Runsu move, renting a house for an electrical appliance repair shop, and planning with Lan Qimei how to sell roast duck later...

When he has free time, he has to find time to read and consolidate the knowledge in textbooks.

Rumors about the resumption of the college entrance examination are also becoming more and more intense in the market. It is said that many employees of Dongfang Fertilizer Factory have begun to take leave to prepare for the exam.

Xu Jichang talked about this when he visited Factory Director Gao one day. Director Gao was also helpless.

"Reviewing delays work production. It is said that many employees bring books directly to the office to read."

In the living room of Factory Director Gao's house, he smiled and spread his hands and said, "But there is no way. As leaders, we can't stop others from pursuing progress."

Xu Jichang was quite emotional and looked out the window and took a deep breath, "It's better to form a good relationship and turn a blind eye."

"If the college entrance examination is really resumed, we will sign a training agreement with them and let them return to the factory after their work is over."

"That's what I thought."

Director Gao tapped his fingers on the table twice and said, "By the way, do you still want to go back to the factory now?"

Xu Jichang smiled and looked at Factory Director Gao without saying anything.

Director Gao understood what Xu Jichang meant, but he was only half-joking at first.

"It's good. There's a lot more room to work in a dealership."

Director Gao Kuanhe smiled and said, "I couldn't believe it at first. Only eleven people can handle so many things."

"The factory's sales office originally had more than 50 people. And the work tasks are much lighter than yours."

"As long as we provide incentives and reward the advanced and weed out the lagging, people's enthusiasm will be mobilized at once."

Xu Jichang said with a sincere expression.

Director Gao was convinced: "You're right, it's just that it's not that easy to hire someone in the factory."

"If it's not easy to fire him, just use salary means to mediate."

Xu Jichang said with relief, "There is always a way."

"I think so too. I plan to use the profits handed over by your distribution company as a reward fund to stimulate the work enthusiasm of the cadres and employees."

“If you do well, you’ll get a bonus, if you don’t do well, you won’t get a penny.”

"This method is good and will definitely be effective..."

……

Xu Jichang chatted with Director Gao until dusk and went back after dinner at his house.

Factory Director Gao currently lives in a small western-style building. The actual area of ​​each floor is estimated to be about a hundred square meters, with a total of three floors.

The two had dinner in the restaurant on the third floor. Director Gao sent him out of the courtyard of the small foreign building before returning.

The early summer nights are restless.

Xu Jichang did not go back immediately after leaving Director Gao's house. Instead, he strolled along the moat embankment for a while, and then walked home after getting enough of the evening breeze.

It was already late when we got home. Du Xiaojing and Lan Qimei were all asleep. There was no movement in the yard and all the lights were dimmed.

Xu Jichang closed the courtyard door very gently, for fear of waking them up.

Back in his bedroom, Xu Jichang turned on the light and saw an extra kraft paper package on the table.

When Xu Jichang lifted the envelope, it felt very heavy in his hand.

When he opened it, he saw that it was filled with ten-yuan bills and a note on top.

It's Lan Qimei's handwriting.

"The roast duck and fried melon seeds business is doing well and I have made a lot of money. This is 2 yuan given to you as dividends as agreed. Please keep it."

Xu Jichang read the note carefully twice before putting it back in the bag.

Unexpectedly, the profits were so huge.

Based on the opening time of Lan Qimei, the current profitability of the roast duck business has greatly exceeded expectations.

If this development continues, the roast duck business will catch up, surpassing mountain goods trafficking and electrical appliance repair, and become Xu Jichang's largest source of profit.

It is true that food is the most important thing for the people.

Xu Jichang was still repeating this sentence in his mind until he paid 2 yuan into the space.
