Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 7 Sunshine Rose
Although Tong City is small, it has a second-tier university, Tongcheng College. Its accounting major is okay, but the rest is average. It has some fame in the province, but I'm afraid no one in the country has heard of it.

The new campus was just completed in 06 and is quite remote. Twenty years later, it will be bustling there, with Evergrande on the left and Country Garden on the right, and complete commercial facilities.

Tongcheng University starts school relatively early, on August 8th.

At six o'clock in the evening, Chen Pingjiang and Zhou Guanghan set up a small stall with a loudspeaker next to it in the temporary snack street opposite the entrance of the new campus of Tongcheng College.

"Freshman, working to earn money for study."

“Direct sales from the place of origin, direct sales from the place of origin.”

"The nationally renowned Sunshine Rose grapes are now available."

"Xiao Chen's selection is a great contribution."

"Come and have a look, babies."

"Nineteen dollars and ninety cents a bunch!"

"There are only 50 orders in the last three minutes. Families, be quick or you will miss out."

……

The fried rice vendor next to him glanced at the grape stall with disdain and said, "What Sunshine Rose? Have you ever heard of it? It's so expensive."

"It's a steal, twenty dollars a string."

Most grapes nowadays cost almost $2 per pound. This bunch of grapes weighs just over pounds, but it costs yuan. People are right to complain that it is a rip-off.

If Chen Pingjiang heard this, he would definitely be unhappy.

"What do you know? What we sell is not grapes but love. Do you understand love? It is priceless."

The vendors around were a little jealous looking at the crowd surrounding them in three layers.

Bunches of grapes were placed on the stall. Under the sunlight, the grapes were big and plump, and covered with a layer of fine water droplets, which made them look even more tempting. The small wooden table next to it was covered with a white tablecloth and a sign that read "Tasting". The purple grapes in the plastic box were washed very clean, and toothpicks were inserted in them. Next to the plastic box was a can of Coke, a bouquet of roses, and napkins.

There is a white hanging cloth next to the stall with some artistic words written on it.

"Send a bouquet of sunshine roses to your him (her)."

"Little sister, take your two skewers."

Chen Pingjiang handed over two beautifully packaged gift boxes. The grape photos on the gift boxes were photoshopped as brightly as possible. In the upper left corner was a small Chen Zhenxuan logo, with the text "For the sweet one".

"Senior, you want three boxes, right?"

"Damn it, don't grab it, Yanzu, there are so many goods."

"Senior, you are so beautiful. Your boyfriend must be very happy to have you."

……

It was a small stall and it was lunchtime so it was no exaggeration to say that it was packed with people.

Zhou Guanghan was slow to begin with, and he also had to follow Chen Pingjiang's instructions to package the products beautifully, so the delivery speed dropped significantly. The students behind him even started to line up on their own initiative.

One packs the things and the other collects the money. They work very well together.

Zhou Guanghan was looking at the long queue and packing more and more skillfully, but he was kicked by Chen Pingjiang for no apparent reason.

Zhou Guanghan knew this was a secret code, and he indicated that he should pack it more beautifully and go slower. My uncle said that only by improving the quality of service can we attract repeat customers.

After all, he was a young man who had just graduated from high school. Sometimes when he met a girl who was even slightly good-looking, Zhou Guanghan would get so nervous that his hands would tremble. He felt uncomfortable and nervous when being stared at.

As more and more students came to eat, more and more people lined up. A young lady came over to try a grape, thought it was delicious, and turned around and walked to the end of the line.

Some students didn’t even try it, but since everyone was queuing up, it must be delicious, so I want to queue up too.

In less than two hours, all 200 bunches of the more than 400 kilograms of grapes were sold out.

"I'm sorry, seniors, we're sold out today. I'll give each of you a bag of snacks to make up for it. Remember to come tomorrow at 5pm."

Chen Pingjiang held a loud speaker, shouted, bowed and apologized, and distributed small bags of snacks to the students in line.

The strange thing is that no one thought it was wrong.

I didn’t get a seat because I came late. I must come earlier tomorrow.

With so many people queuing up, the grapes must be delicious.

Damn it, I must come early tomorrow to buy a few boxes for Feifei, oh, and for the ones in their dormitory.

In short, Sunshine Rose was a hit.

It has been a month since the last site visit, and Chen Pingjiang and Zhou Guanghan have been busy during this month, preparing various preliminary work.

For example, making packaging boxes and negotiating transportation channels. Fortunately, Tongcheng College starts earlier than other schools, otherwise this business would not be possible.

The first time we stocked up, we stocked more than 400 kilograms. My aunt Chen Xiufen kept dissuading us from doing so, fearing that the goods would rot if they couldn't be sold.

However, Chen Pingjiang is very confident. With his more than ten years of sales experience and knowledge that is ahead of the times, he can reach the limit of the industry with just a little effort.

With the right time, right place and right people, why can't it be sold?

First of all, the grapes from my aunt's house taste good, but they are not necessarily that good. They only sell for two or three yuan a bunch at a general fruit stall, but the remaining ten or so yuan is the price of love.

The new students have just entered school. Shouldn’t the young couple, who haven’t seen each other for a summer, give each other small gifts to express their love?
It may be painful to buy a bunch of grapes for twenty yuan if you want to eat them yourself, but it is really the best to give it to others as a gift.

Just returning to school is when living expenses are the most abundant, and it is also the time when students feel least sorry about spending money.

College students dare to spend money when they have it.

That's a god-level existence whose living expenses arrived yesterday, he pays them off today, and spends it all tomorrow.

Tongcheng College is located in the suburbs, and it is now a deserted place with only one or two fruit stalls.

The pricing strategy is accurate, the target group is clear, the brand has a premium, the packaging is exquisite, the service is considerate, the stall is classy, ​​and the marketing strategy links Sunshine Rose with love.

When all the elements are brought together, a big hit is born.

It just so happens that Chen Pingjiang has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He deliberately controls the speed of shipment and packaging. Sometimes he would rather do nothing than help out, and he wants customers to line up obediently to create a scene of best-selling products.

This led to some single guys who were still single and greedy fairies joining the long queue to buy, as everyone wanted to try something new.

What's more, you can even brag about it when you return to the dormitory and feel proud.

"A bunch of grapes cost twenty yuan. They have a nice name, Sunshine Rose. They are super sweet and delicious."

"No way, it's really popular now, you haven't tried it yet."

"You have to queue. It's a very long queue."

"I heard it was just introduced from abroad. It's not available in China. It's a new product that just came on the market this year."

"You know what, this tastes better than the grapes sold outside for one dollar a pound."

……

All I can say is that the seniors of Tongcheng College were accurately grasped.

Many people had already planned to rush over early the next day to buy two boxes.

A small restaurant on Renmin Road.

Chen Pingjiang threw his bulging shoulder bag to Zhou Guanghan, poured himself a glass of ice-cold beer, drank it in one gulp, reached out to wipe the foam off his lips, and said, "Count it!"

Zhou Guanghan had never seen so much money since he was a child. He carefully emptied his bag and scattered ten-yuan and twenty-yuan RMB notes on the table, with a red one among them.

After counting and counting, Zhou Guanghan said excitedly and nervously, "Uncle, three thousand nine hundred yuan!"

Chen Pingjiang nodded and took the change from buying cigarettes and water. One box was twenty, two hundred boxes were four thousand, which made sense.

The general purchase price is only 5 cents per pound. If I give one piece to my aunt, I can make a net profit of 3400. After deducting the logistics loss and bad fruits, the balance is about 3000.

"Not bad! It's not in vain."

"Uncle, I seriously suspect you are pretending."

"You know too much." Chen Pingjiang made a pistol gesture with his right hand and clenched his fist.

In 06, in this fourth-tier small city, the average monthly salary was only about 1500 yuan. Zhou Guanghan couldn't even imagine that his great uncle could earn two months' income in just one night. He thought his great uncle was amazing.

"Eat quickly. We have to go back and pick out the hundreds of kilograms of rotten fruit in the rental house."

The two found a rental house near the station as a shelter and warehouse.

It is impossible to pick the fruits every morning and then pack them, load them onto trucks for transportation and unloading. It is ok if the quantity is small, but if the quantity is large, it is impossible to handle it and people will be exhausted.

Over in Dongfeng Village, Chen Pingjiang had already called and asked his aunt to quickly organize the women in the village to help pick and prepare the goods, and then contact the truck driver in the village to load the goods. After unloading the goods at the rental house in Tongshi, they had to trim and arrange the fruits, remove the bad and rotten fruits, and finally transport them to Tongcheng College by cart to set up a stall. Before setting up the stall, each bunch of grapes was checked for any broken or bruised results. After they were arranged neatly, they were sprinkled with water using a spray bottle to make each grape crystal clear.

The work may seem light, but it is not easy. Especially since Chen Pingjiang requires that every bunch of grapes sold must not contain any rotten or bruised grapes, which directly drives up the cost.

"Erzi, did you bring the juicer from home?"

"I brought it, uncle!" Zhou Guanghan said vaguely with a big chicken leg stuffed in his mouth.

"I'm going to make a lot of money tomorrow." Chen Pingjiang took a deep breath of Hongtashan cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring and said.
