Chapter 460 Market Investment
Sure enough, as Ye Yaodong expected, the merchants and fishmongers who entered the market immediately went straight to the bighead butterfly fish. Whether to buy it or not was another matter. It was so rare that everyone had to come to join in the fun and see the novelty. , support the personal field.
The flow of people in the stalls around them has also increased a lot. Although their target is the fish, after seeing the fish, they have to start shopping around.
Ye Yaodong's price for his own scallops was the previous day's good price, 36 cents and 28 cents. Anyway, what he was selling was that you get what you pay for.
Others also know that their big bodies are mixed with small ones and a bit of empty shells, so they don't dare to shout so high. They are also honest people from the country.
There are a few scallop sellers in the market. One of them has a very large quantity of goods. I heard that there are several cars parked at the door. Ye Yaodong suspects that that one is the one who cooperates with their village wharf.
Although they have a lot of goods, they clear the goods very quickly, thanks to the traffic brought by this fish, and they sold out before dawn.
Although Ye Yaodong refused to counter-offer when he asked for high prices, he was also the fastest among several people to clear the goods. Large traffic is one thing, and being sharp-tongued is also an advantage. The most important thing is that he picks cleanly.
This is not the first time these merchants and fishmongers have wholesaled. They already know what the scallops were like yesterday. If they buy them again, they will check them carefully to avoid suffering a loss.
Ye Yaodong's scallops were picked carefully and cleanly, and people were satisfied and asked for them simply. Amid the envy of others, his goods were queued up on trucks to the transaction point, which was right next to the merchant entrance.
There were not many merchants and fishmongers entering the market at this time, the market was not very busy, and there were only two or three people queuing up at the transaction point.
However, Ye Yaodong noticed that there was a wooden board next to him with the word "investment" written on it.
Soon it was Ye Yaodong's turn. He didn't bother to turn around and look at the sign. He had to sell these goods first.
After the weighing, the money is calculated on the spot. In this wholesale market, the buyer and seller will be charged a commission of 3 points each based on the transaction amount, 3 yuan for every 100 yuan.
Ye Yaodong's 2 big bags of scallops weighed 262 kilograms and cost 94 yuan 3 cents and 2 cents. The shelled ones accounted for the most weight. The smaller one and a half bags weighed 202 kilograms and cost 56 yuan and 5 cents. The total was sold for 150 yuan and 8 cents.
In addition, the goods he sold to Ah Cai yesterday morning were worth almost 120 yuan, and the scallops in them were about 56 yuan. When he returned, he could collect another wave of ground cage goods. This typhoon came at a great time.
After Ye Yaodong paid the commission to the transaction point, he happily collected the money and folded his sack at the same time.
Then he immediately went to see the investment sign, thanking him for having attended a literacy class and knowing basic common words.
The address of the new wholesale market is written crookedly on it. It is expected to be completed by the end of the year. The surrounding shops are looking for investment. If you are interested, please contact the transaction point.
Ye Yaodong looked around and was still busy. He quickly went up to ask the person who just called him, and took out two more cigarettes.
"Brother, it's quite hard to get up and go to work this late at night, isn't it?"
Seeing that there were not many people in line, the middle-aged man asked someone else to weigh the cigarette and took the cigarette himself. "For Hukou, there is no other way. This job is relatively simple. If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Ye Yaodong smiled and pointed to the investment board in the corner, "What is your new market investment method?"
"Oh, this, the boss said it was 3,000 yuan per shop. It was put up just the day before yesterday. No one has asked about it yet. I don't know if everyone can't read."
He thought about it in his mind. 3,000 yuan was not expensive. The house he built in the countryside cost almost 1,000 yuan. Including the foundation, it was over 1,000 yuan.
After all, this is a shop in the city. If you rent a stall here and sell goods for 100 yuan, you will be charged 3 yuan. If you sell goods here regularly for a month, you will be charged 90 yuan. If you rent a stall here, you will be charged 1,000 yuan a year, which is equivalent to three years of rent.
It's cost-effective to buy one in the long term, and you can rent it out when you don't use it. It's worth it at the rate of inflation. No one asked about this. I guess most people are illiterate.
"Brother, how big is this shop? How long is its useful life?"
"About 30 square meters. It doesn't seem to say how long it will last. I have to ask, how long will the store last for as long as the market exists?"
Ye Yaodong probably knows a little about property rights, but the laws in this era are not yet perfect. There should be no such thing as a 40-year term for a shop. The purchase period should not be short now.
(I don’t know if it’s correct or not. If you understand, you can leave a message and I will modify it)
He doesn't know how to do business, and he doesn't know the twists and turns in business, but thanks to the gift of his previous life, he will never lose money when buying a house or a shop.
It would be better if he had money to buy a few pieces of land around the city. But if he didn't know how to do business, would he still be able to buy land?
It’s just a little money!
“So how do I buy this and how do I make a reservation?”
The middle-aged man thought he was just asking casually, but he didn't expect him to ask how to buy it? This surprised him. He looked Ye Yaodong up and down and said with a smile, "Do you want to buy it?"
“If you want to understand, it’s just too much money.”
"If you want to buy, the supervisor will come after dawn. You can tell him that now you only need to pay a deposit, sign a contract, and pay the final payment after the market is completed."
"How much is the deposit?"
"500 yuan."
"I'll think about it, thank you."
"It's okay. Buying a shop is a big deal. You need to think about it carefully. There's no rush anyway. I heard it won't be built until the end of the year."
Ye Yaodong thanked him and returned to the stall while thinking.
The stalls in this aquatic products wholesale market are not for sale, but are dedicated to earning commissions. It would be very cost-effective to buy a shop outside. The main reason is that this market will be the largest aquatic products wholesale market in Fujian Province in the future. If you don't use it yourself, you can still make money by renting it out.
And it's only 3,000 yuan now. He can make money with his eyes closed. He can't fish for the rest of his life, can he? What a hard work!
purchase! Definitely have to buy it!
Since he came across it, he had to buy one no matter what. He could be a charterer when he was old. He could work for a few more years and save some money to buy a piece of land for development.
Just thinking about it makes me happy, and the corners of Ye Yaodong's mouth are almost split to the back of his head.
Everyone standing in front of the stall looked at him with a silly smile on his face and went too far, so they quickly stopped him.
"Ah Dong?"
"Yaodong?"
"Ye Yaodong?"
"Huh? Huh? Call me? Oh, you've gone too far..."
He looked around before realizing that the dream was so beautiful that the noise around him almost couldn't wake him up.
"What are you doing? Did you find the money? I've called you several times."
"Didn't you take the scale? Why didn't you come back until now?"
"Have you been shopping around?"
Ye Yaodong smiled again when he thought about the shop, but he also thought about not having enough money on hand. Looking at the goods that everyone was still stacking there, he asked, "You guys haven't done anything yet?"
He still has 350 yuan left, so he has to wait until everyone sells out the goods to raise funds.
"A lot of people asked, but after everyone asked, they went to look elsewhere after picking and choosing."
“Then maybe you need to shop around, right?”
"Probably, you're faster."
"I picked carefully, and people must have known about it. I was afraid of being beaten first, so I must get it early. Please be patient and wait. It has not been long. I have been there just now and I haven't seen anyone weighing scallops."
"Well, it's only been an hour now and it's still dark, so don't worry."
Ye Yaodong saw the bighead butterfly fish diagonally across the corner again, pouting at them, "That top-quality flounder hasn't been sold yet?"
"Yes, there were a lot of people asking about the price. All the merchants and fishmongers who came in had to come over and ask. After asking, they all shook their heads and started to move on to their other goods."
"This fish is a living sign. It's better to sell it later."
"that is……"
As time goes by, the market becomes more and more lively and noisy. Everyone has to shout to speak, and it is impossible to hear even a small voice.
Ye Yaodong had already cleared out all the goods and stood in front of the stall for a while. He also walked around when he had nothing to do, and learned about the market conditions.
After a comparison, Ah Cai and the others are considered conscientious. The more expensive ones are basically floating around 30 to 5 cents, while the cheaper ones earn less. They can be considered small profits but quick turnover, and they also have to pay for shipping costs. Split the money.
But it’s quite a lot in one month, and it’s easy to earn just by collecting goods, unlike them who work hard.
When he walked around and returned to the stall, two people had also sold their goods and had already gone to weigh them. There was also a queue at the transaction point.
The surrounding stalls were full and empty, empty and full, and people came and went, wave after wave.
After it got slightly light, Ye Yaodong also became familiar with the market and planned to go outside to have a look.
As soon as he walked out, he saw people outside with cars and goods. A bunch of people came up to him and asked him, "Boss, where are you going? Do you want to take a car? There are rickshaws, trucks, and tractors, and they can be delivered to your home..."
Ye Yaodong waved his hands quickly and walked out.
The surrounding area looked deserted at night, and even though it was also deserted during the day, there were people coming and going, it was bustling with people, it was extremely lively, and there were many small vendors.
There are also people who sell goods at the door to save commissions, but not many people stay because there are more choices in the market.
He estimated that the busiest time would be between 3 and 4 o'clock, when everyone was rushing to buy goods and send them to the local market.
After wandering around the door again, I found a bun vendor and bought 7 buns before going in again.
In a short time, everyone had finished shipping out their goods and were queuing up to be weighed. They stopped Ye Yaodong as soon as he entered.
Everyone was beaming and felt that today's trip was worth it. Those with less money could earn an extra 20 yuan, and those with more money could earn more than 30 yuan. The main reason was that the price had increased a lot, so it was not a loss. .
But after they went back after selling, they found out that they had earned more than that, and had to double it again. The village had collected half of the goods last night, and later the price dropped by 2 cents because there were too many empty shells and the quantity was too large. Of course, this That’s a story for another day.
