Thirty: A Sudden Explosion of Panic Buying

On March 18, the second store of Lao Xu’s family officially opened. The store is still the same, but with a different signboard.

For this reason, Xu Dong bought a small waste recycling company on purpose. He didn’t want their site, mainly because he thought it was remote, and he only spent less than 10,000 yuan before and after.

During this period of time, countless small and medium-sized companies went bankrupt every day, and there were advertisements for renting and renting everywhere on the street.

Xu Dong just went to the intermediary to inquire a little bit, and they directly took out a thick company catalog and asked him to choose at will.

After completing all the formalities, Dad Xu not only became the store manager of this new store, but also the sole shareholder of Changming Renewable Resources Recycling Company.

In other words, this store belongs to Dad Xu from the inside to the outside, and the word “Changming” is taken from Dad Xu’s name.

After the opening of the new store, Father Xu seemed to have rejuvenated his second life. He was even happier than when he was the manager of the convenience store, and he seemed to be in high spirits.

Xu Dong finally let go of the trace of guilt in his heart.

Also on this day, several major state-owned banks in Daxia finally resumed business, and the crowds of people withdrawing money on the first day directly paralyzed the traffic in the entire city.

The next day, another good news came. Mobile communication and Internet have started trial operation in some streets, and it is estimated that they will be fully opened within two or three days.

Stimulated by this news, all new mobile phones, new tablets and new laptops on the market, regardless of brand, were all wiped out, and even the long-lost scalpers were revived.

The reason why everyone is frantically buying electronic products is very simple, because many people have no electronic products to use.

In fact, long before the nationwide power outage, many measures to prevent the destructive power of flares had been circulated on the Internet, one of which was:

Power off electronics!

Maybe it’s because I don’t believe in evil, maybe I didn’t see it, maybe I forgot…

In short, on this day, the largest electronic product scrapping event in history was born.

On March 21, the capitals of various states and some important cities in the country restored the network one after another, and people once again entered the Internet era.

If the material supply problem is not taken into account, everyone’s living pattern is basically restored to that before the solar flare erupted.

Just when everyone thought that everything was about to return to the right track, another wave of panic buying completely shattered this illusion.

The wave of panic buying came fiercely and violently, and it spread to all parts of the country and even neighboring countries in a short period of time.

…

When the panic-buying wave just appeared, Mama Xu received a group message from the group of dancing friends. In addition, she herself is impatient, so she has no resistance to the panic-buying wave.

This time, Xu Dong not only did not persuade to stop, but joined in together.

It is very stupid to hide money at home or in the bank.

If you do this, then congratulations, you will be lucky enough to see what is called “flying down three thousand feet” in the future.

Therefore, it is better to take the opportunity to spend it all.

===Section 23===

There is only one chance. No matter what product you buy, you will earn if you buy it. If you can’t buy it, you can only blame your life.

After finishing the preparations, Xu Dong drove his truck around the streets. He deliberately avoided places with a lot of crowds and picked out unpopular businesses.

Where there are many people, the traffic is jammed, and cars cannot drive in.

And there is no shortage of food at home, so it doesn’t matter what you buy.

“There’s no one there.”

Mama Xu suddenly pointed to a distance away and said that she was sitting in the co-pilot’s seat.

Xu Dong also saw it, and quickly drove the truck to the door of the store.

“I don’t know what is sold here?”

Xu’s mother was a little worried. They had bought a lot of unnecessary things before, such as toilet seats, glasses, wallpaper, floor tiles, sandals and slippers, and so on.

The only gain is to take a cart of small hardware back.

These goods have already spent all of the 600,000 that Mama Xu brought, and the money used now is the rest of Xu Dong’s previous account, which is about two million.

“Go in and take a look. It’s close to the Flower, Bird, Fish and Insect Market. It probably sells pets or bonsai.”

Xu Dong guessed that anyway, he no longer had any surprises.

Mama Xu couldn’t hide her disappointment when she heard this. She didn’t want to kill pet cubs for meat, not only couldn’t do it, but she couldn’t do it.

The mother and son stepped into the shop. The area inside was not small, about 100 square meters. It looked empty, and they seemed to be a step late.

When the shop owner saw a customer coming, he was not to mention how happy he was, and immediately greeted him:

“Welcome, what do you two want to buy?”

Mama Xu frowned and asked, “What do you sell here?”

“You didn’t read the sign at the door…”

Before the words were finished, the shop owner himself reacted first and apologized immediately:

“Sorry, sorry, I forgot, the signboard was taken down last night.”

“Boss, are you closing this shop?”

The store owner nodded and explainedSaid: “I have only done less than ten transactions in three months. I really can’t support it. I will officially close tomorrow.”

Mother Xu showed sympathy.

Xu Dong didn’t want to waste time, so he asked directly, “Boss, what exactly do you sell here?”

“Huafei!” The shop owner replied.

“fertilizer?”

“It’s not chemical fertilizer, it’s flower fertilizer, the flower of flowers.” The shop owner felt tired.

When Xu Ma heard that it was Hua Fei, she completely lost her mind and just wanted to leave early.

Xu Dong became interested instead, and continued to ask: “Apart from flower fertilizer, do you have planting soil here?”

The store owner’s eyes lit up, he didn’t expect to meet big customers before closing.

Planting soil is different from flower fertilizer. An ordinary order is at least a dozen cubic meters, or even thousands of cubic meters. The profit is much higher than that of flower fertilizer.

“Yes, I wonder how much you need here?”

“I want 100 cubic meters, and I also need some flower fertilizer. One thousand kilograms is enough.”

As soon as Xu Dong finished speaking, Mama Xu pulled him to the door: “What are you buying so much soil for?”

“I want to build a vegetable garden in our yard. Even if there is a natural disaster in the future, they can still eat fresh vegetables.”

“Can this work? It’s so cold at night, the seeds are frozen to death.” Mama Xu worried.

Xu Dong reminded: “Mom, our yard is completely enclosed. Isn’t this a ready-made glass house? What kind of vegetables don’t grow?”

Mama Xu understands everything, and even thinks deeper.

There is no need to be afraid of the low temperature at night. The big deal is to order two more stoves. There must be no problem in growing vegetables, so she immediately changed her attitude:

“Okay, mom agrees to build a vegetable garden.”

The two returned to the store again, and the store owner asked nervously: “How is the discussion going? If it’s a price issue, we can discuss it.”

“Then what’s the price on your side?” Xu Dong asked along the way.

“You know the situation in the store, so I won’t say anything false, the planting soil is 1,000 yuan per cubic meter, and the flower fertilizer is included as a gift.

As for the transportation fee, delivery within the Fifth Ring Road will be provided, and transportation beyond the Fifth Ring Road will be half of one person. What do you think? ”

Xu Dong felt that the price was okay. After all, everything is increasing in price now, so he nodded and said, “Yes, I can accept this price.”

The store owner was pleasantly surprised, and quickly expressed his gratitude. This order can at least recover a quarter of his losses.

“When will the goods arrive from your side?” Xu Dong asked immediately.

The shop owner thought for a while and said, “It will take at least three or four days. After all, it’s hard to find transportation vehicles now.”

“Then it will be delivered in five days.” Xu Dong decided.

He could just use these five days to transform the yard into a vegetable garden.

“no problem.”
