Chapter 7 Using Data to Bargain Price
“It’s not more than a hundred kilometers from here to our village. Now the price of 92-octane gasoline is less than three yuan. Let’s calculate it as three yuan. Your trip will be Twenty-four yuan."
"Ten yuan for wear and tear, thirty-four yuan."
"The price of a big job in the labor market is thirty yuan, and half a day is fifteen yuan. ”
“Thirty-four plus fifteen, which is forty-nine, let’s calculate the whole number to fifty.”
"Considering that you have to come back, I'll give you another twenty yuan for gas, seventy."
"So, I can only give you seventy for this trip."
Looking at the stunned old man, Qian Gui felt happy. He was taught the same lesson back then.
Looking at Xu Liang with a calm expression, he was secretly surprised.
“You look like you’re eighteen or nineteen years old, why are you so mouthy?!”
Xu Liangdao didn't think it was anything. He came from twenty-four years later, an era where big data was rampant.
All transactions must be quantified into specific numbers.
He is also used to this way of talking about business.
Yang Jianguo took a deep puff of his cigarette and gave Xu Liang a thumbs up.
“Little brother, I, Old Yang, have surrendered and will be eighty.”
"Thank you, Master Yang. Let's load the car now?"
"Load the car."
After rebirth, Xu Liang has amazing strength and stronger recovery power.
Half of the Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters he bought were carried into the car by himself.
Looking at himself who was sweating profusely, and then at Xu Liang who was just slightly out of breath.
Qian Gui couldn't help but sigh: "It's good to be young."
This time there was a special truck, and the return speed was much faster, and we arrived home at four o'clock in the afternoon.
Xu Liang moved the Spring Festival couplets to his room.
After seeing Master Yang off, he looked at the ‘results’ in the room with a satisfied smile on his face.
“Brother, you bought so many Spring Festival couplets, can you sell them all?”
Xu Meng looked at the Spring Festival couplets stacked half a meter high, five meters long and three meters wide, with surprise on his face.
"Sold out? You should worry about whether it's enough."
"By the way, did you ask what I asked you to ask?"
"Yes. Spring couplets like this cost two yuan per door in Yanghe Collection; those made with coated paper cost five yuan per door..." Xu Mengru has many treasures in his family.
Xu Liang nodded. The town where his sister’s school is located happened to be a market today, so Xu Liang asked her to ask about the market price of the Spring Festival couplets at noon.
"It's pretty much what I guessed."
"Brother, how much is your purchase price?" Xu Meng asked curiously.
"Guess."
"One piece?"
Xu Liang shook his head.
"One dollar and two?"
Shaked his head again.
“Oh, tell me quickly, others won’t be able to guess it.”
After touching his sister’s black hair dotingly, Xu Liang smiled and said: “Spring couplets made of straw pulp paper, one One cent per door; two cents per door for coated paper. "One cent per door?" Shock appeared on Xu Meng's face.
She is very good at math and can understand the profit as soon as she thinks about it without having to do calculations.
"Brother, you are making a huge profit."
"If I don't make money, why should I do this? But remember, the purchase price of Spring Festival couplets is top secret, except for you and me, even if Don't tell your parents."
Xu Meng nodded, "Dad is a big talker. If he knew how to make money, he would definitely show off his precious son everywhere."
Knocked lightly. Hit her little head.
"It's good to know. If your parents ask, just tell them the purchase price is one yuan per door."
"I know."
"If you have nothing to do, help me take apart these Spring Festival couplets at home. , count out two hundred copies for each category."
Xu Meng nodded and looked at the brother walking out.
“Where are you going?”
"I'm going to Huo Gang's house."
Opened the door and walked out.
Go west from the alley where your home is, cross two streets and knock on the courtyard door. "Who is it?"
A hoarse but young voice came from inside.
Xu Liang pushed the door open and walked around the screen wall.
In the yard, a man wearing a thin coat, nearly 1.9 meters tall and with a strong physique was practicing his fists and kicks vigorously. The muscles on his body were like pieces of steel, full of strength.
"Brother Liang? Why are you here."
The big man came up to him with a happy face.
Looking at his best friend since childhood, Xu Liang stepped forward and hammered the other person on the chest a few times, and then gave him a bear hug.
"We haven't seen each other for a month, and you are getting stronger again."
Huo Gang smiled widely.
"Where is grandpa?"
"Listen to Peking Opera inside."
Xu Liang nodded and walked towards the main room.
Huo Gang quickly followed.
Pushing the door into the room, there is a little old man wearing a black cotton-padded jacket sitting on the recliner next to him, listening to the Peking Opera Shajiabang leisurely.
Hearing the movement, he turned around and looked over.
"Xiao Liangzi is here?"
"Grandpa Huo, how are you doing?"
"If you can eat and sleep, it won't be a problem to live another twenty or thirty years." The old man said with a smile.
While speaking, he stood up. Although he was very old, his back was straight and he looked energetic.
Xu Liang put the tobacco and wine he brought and some tomatoes from his home on the table.
"These are the ones my parents asked me to bring to you."
The old man nodded and waved for him to sit down.
"Your kid is on winter vacation?"
Xu Liang nodded, "Grandpa Huo, I plan to sell Spring Festival couplets to make some money during the winter vacation."
"I want Gangzi to follow you One piece?"
"You got it right." Xu Liang gave a thumbs up, "I'll give Gangzi twenty yuan a day."
"The price is not low. There is no life in the fields, so let him wander around with you.”
"Thank you, Grandpa Huo, but I also want to use your motorcycle tricycle. Don't worry, I will be responsible for the gas cost and wear and tear."
The old man glanced at him and smiled and said: "You guys have considered this. Very thoughtful. Okay, I agree.”
“Thank you, Grandpa Huo.”
Xu Liang turned his head.
"Gangzi, come to me on your motorcycle at six o'clock tomorrow morning after breakfast."
"Don't worry, Brother Liang, I promise to arrive on time." Huo Gang patted his chest.
"Grandpa Huo, I'll leave first."
"Gangzi, see Xiaoliangzi off."
The two got up and went out, walking to the door of the yard, Xu Liang turned around.
“Have you been at home all this time?”
"Two days ago, Xu Dayan, who is next door, said he would find me a job in the Dawang Factory, but it will definitely have to wait until after the Chinese New Year."
Dawang Town is adjacent to their Zhuliang Town, where there are many chemical plants, In addition to serving as soldiers, most of the young people in the village who could not pass high school went to work at the tire factory.
It is close to home and the salary is not bad.
"Don't go to the king's place yet. After the New Year, I will take you to the capital."
"The capital? Brother Liang, you don't want to go to school?"
"Of course, other parents don't kill me. Rest assured, I have my own calculation, don't say it first, just wait for my news."
Huo Gang ordered Nodding, "Brother Liang, I listen to you."
Since he was a child, he was used to listening to Xu Liang.
"Okay, let's go back. Don't forget to come early tomorrow."
"Yeah."
When I got back to my home, my parents weren't back yet.
Xu Liang picked up the phone and started calling.
From the beginning, he had no intention of selling Spring Festival couplets alone.
