Back to 80, start from gold digging

Chapter 59
Zhao Wenduo took the bag with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, how can I not, I have delivered it myself."

What she didn't say in her heart was: Just bring a few more bags of this level, and take as much as you have.

I just didn't want to be too ostentatious, so I held back and didn't say anything.

The sister-in-law of the Chen family got 30 yuan, and she was so overjoyed that she was speechless. She just shook the three big unity cards in her hand, and after a long time, she said, "This thing is worth-worth so much money. , it’s not wrong—is it wrong?”

The money that the little girl paid, could it be that she was too young to mix up the bills, and mistakenly paid ten yuan for one yuan?
In her place, those three things can be sold for three yuan at most, and maybe they can't be sold for a penny, and no one will buy them.

So much so that I didn't have much mental preparation, and was frightened by the ten times the price.

Not only her, but even Wu Dakui and the Cui family who were with her were shocked.It looks like the stall is about to be closed, this is in a hurry to finish, not even a cent of the money is kept.

In the morning, I spent a small 40 yuan to go out, and in the afternoon, it was [-] or [-] yuan. The money I brought was not enough, so I borrowed [-] yuan from Cui's family.So how much money is left, several people know.

Zhao Wenduo's pockets were full and it was only 30 yuan, but he gave it all out. This can't help but make people think, is the little girl tired after collecting goods for a day, and her mind is confused. Not even money.

Everyone's astonishment was fully seen, Zhao Wenduo secretly smiled, and said to Mrs. Chen's sister-in-law: "There is no mistake in giving, this is the number, don't worry about accepting it."

"Mm, um, yes." The sister-in-law of the Chen family responded a series of times, unable to think of any extra words.When he walked, his footsteps were sloppy, his face had a dreamy expression, and his brain froze for more than ten meters away before he remembered to laugh.

Wu Dakui and the Cui family: "..."

Zhao Wenduo turned around and explained to a few people: "This thing is not easy to come across, so I didn't tell you before that this is the most valuable among the leathers I bought. Some foreign merchants asked for it by name. I gave it to you. The price is not low either.”

Oh, I see.

"The price can't be so high. The cost alone is ten yuan. Don't sell it and throw it in your hands." The old man of the Cui family said worriedly.

The native villagers have spent their lives planing food from the ground, and have never done any business. This is the first time they have seen such a tyrannical method of paying.You know, that's a whole 30 yuan, not three cents, how can you give it to someone without blinking your eyes.

On the contrary, Mrs. Cui reacted quickly and pulled her old man: "What are you talking about, how can you lose it? Miss San is such a successful person, will she pay so much money for no reason? If you make money, don't worry about it."

These words clearly meant that old man Cui made a fuss, but in fact he was feeling uneasy in his heart, and persuading others was also comforting himself.

Wu Dakui also confirmed, "Is there really still money to be made?"

"Yes, there is still some money to be made." Zhao Wenduo nodded and explained to him.

After repeated confirmation, a few people calmed down.

Zhao Wenduo took the opportunity to call Wu Dakui, and explained the previous decisions one by one.

Today, we collected skins from two villages, and most of the people have already come, but it is inevitable that those who knew the news late missed it.It's not worth it to come here again just for three or two pieces of skins. If you have the time to go to other villages, you can collect more.

The original plan was the same, going to different villages every day, and the first wave in the new place was the most rewarding.Only a few are left behind, so don't waste time.

But the three pieces of yellow leather he received before leaving made Zhao Wenduo change his mind.In addition, I had thought about it before, and asked the Cui family to join in, and then I had a new plan.

"The news of the leather collection today spread quickly. Such a high price is bound to tempt many people. In the next few days, some people will run up the mountain, and those who can't be hit will hold a hoe. Those who have The guy is even a big family with good craftsmanship, and he is designated as empty-handed. But we can’t get through in other villages, so we can entrust the Cui family’s grandma and uncle to help collect such leather.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Dakui regained his energy immediately, and said, "This is fine, I'll tell them, I'm sure I can do it well."

It is said that it is to help collect, so can you do nothing?The money has to be assigned, according to Zhao Wenduo's character, this help fee can't be less.

The father-in-law's family has always taken good care of him, and it is a rare opportunity to repay him, so he is naturally happy.

I told Mrs. Cui and the others immediately, and the Cui family naturally agreed.It's a joy to make money while sitting at home.He praised Zhao Wenduo as a caring girl, and he did not forget to give them a hand.

After some courtesies, the two parties quickly settled on the purchase price.According to today's prices, most of the leathers have been priced. If you encounter leathers that have not appeared today, they will be calculated according to the size, three yuan for large leathers, and one yuan and fifty cents for small leathers.

The types of wild animals from the surrounding mountains are those, and they cannot exceed this range.

But for the last three skins, I need to give a special explanation.

Although the villagers are reluctant to mention this thing, but once the high price of ten yuan spreads, more people will make up their minds about it.Unlike those running on the mountain, this thing can be recruited if there are chickens in the house, but it is easier to see.

As for the remuneration for this collection, Zhao Wenduo did not give a fixed amount, and only paid a commission based on the number of goods received and the price, which was considered to be in line with the principle of more work, more pay.

Given the popularity of Cui's family in the village, the collection work is just a piece of cake, it couldn't be easier.

After explaining the series of receiving procedures, the two of them finally collected the harvest of the day. The leather bags of the two big bags were tied and two sticks were hung across the two ends of the back seat of the car. Zhao Wenduo happened to be sitting in the middle Steady tilt.

Leaving the village, he rode all the way back to Bailangli.

There was nothing to say all night, and it was the next day.

After getting up in the morning, Zhao Wenduo went to the town and found Master Liu to make an appointment with the two merchants outside the customs.

The owner of the Qiaotou Hotel was yelled up early in the morning, his face was sullen when he got up, and no one smiled.

Master Liu has a strong relationship with him, and doesn't care whether his face is smelly or not, he just asks him to knock on the door and call for someone, saying that there is a big business coming, tell them to act quickly, don't be late, and the things will be gone .

Merchants came all the way to this town just to collect leather goods. When they heard that there was a good product, they naturally rushed forward excitedly, without being disturbed at all.

To say that they also look at people and do business in unfamiliar places is because they are afraid of being cheated.It's a trivial matter to lose some money. If you meet someone with malicious intentions who seek money and even kill you, it will be really miserable.

This is also the reason why they would rather spend more money to live in a decent hotel with a higher safety guarantee factor.

Master Liu is a friend of the hotel owner, so he is the best middleman, and he has already made a deal before, so he has a good impression of him.

Once I heard that the seller was the little girl from before, I felt even more at ease.

After Zhao Wenduo informed Master Liu, he returned to the village immediately.Wu Dakui used this time to tidy up the leather, and the two came to the town together on a bicycle.

The two merchants from outside the pass waited at the bridgehead first. They only waited for the car driver to arrive. They greeted each other a little bit, opened the bag and began to inspect the goods.

Most of the leather collected in the village is simply blown and dried, and the details are rough, unlike the oily and slippery leather that has been carefully processed.But it is natural, there is no fake element.

A good fur color is good, and you can see the bottom at a glance, and you don't need to focus carefully to distinguish inch by inch.

In this way, the speed will be much faster. It took only 10 minutes from the beginning to the end of the two bags of leather on the ground, which is a bit unbelievable.

In the process of sorting, they are directly classified and stacked according to the type and level.Once the quantity is out, the money will be calculated accordingly.

Rabbit skins accounted for half of the [-] small skins, and squirrel skins accounted for another [-]% of the rest. The rest were roe deer skins, deer skins, fox skins, and big mouth skins.

The two parties have already dealt with each other once, and they are considered regular customers. The price is naturally easy to negotiate, and the final transaction price is 720 yuan.

"Wait a minute, I have three more here. Take a look and see what price you can give?" When the other party paid, Wu Dakui took the three leathers as agreed with Zhao Wenduo. come out.

Zhao Wenduo frowned and blocked the way: "Didn't you agree that these three cards would not be sold? Why did you still take them out?"

When the voice fell to the ground, the skin also came out.

The eyes of the two merchants from other places lit up, and one of them pulled it over: "Why don't you sell it, such a good leather, it's a pity to keep it in your hands."

"Don't talk so much, let's make a price directly." The other person couldn't put it down and straightened the hair. These three smooth and smooth, it can be seen that they were also fat and strong when they were alive.

Two of the three strips of leather are longer, and one is slightly smaller. They are lined up side by side, like a family of three, neatly cleaning the deck boards.

The pre-order price was given last time, so naturally it cannot be said less.

However, these three skin colors are really good.

Immediately, the one who had the final say stretched out his hand, squeezed his thumb, index finger, and middle finger, and said, "This number is the larger one, and the smaller one is the price I gave you earlier."

That is, the big one is seventy and the small one is sixty, adding up to exactly two hundred.

This is an increase of ten yuan from the original basis, and it is in line with Zhao Wenduo's previous prediction that the leather market is in a steady upward process and will continue for a period of time.

There is no doubt that this is extremely good news.In the next half month, there is no need to worry about sales, and we can increase our efforts to purchase.

Half of the two sentences of refusal, I exchanged 20 yuan more, and got the information I wanted. These three leathers are really worth selling.

After calculating again, the whole batch of leather before and after added up to a total of 920 yuan. After deducting the cost of 210 yuan, the net profit was 710 yuan.

On the way back, Zhao Wenduo took out half of the money and handed it to Wu Dakui, and agreed to do business together, so naturally the money would be divided equally.

Wu Dakui was going crazy with joy, he earned more than 300 yuan in less than a day and a half, such a good thing that he couldn't think of, why did it fall on his head, hehe——

Zhao Wenduo did not forget to remind him: "We can't spend all of this money for the time being, but we have to use it as the capital and continue to use it for the skin."

Both of them are not that rich, and they don't have much spare money in their hands. The first sum of money they got has to be used as the principal, and the snowball keeps getting bigger and bigger, and the more they collect, the more they collect.

"Okay, I understand." Wu Dakui nodded.Excitement is excitement, the brain is still clear, small business, it is a long-term business.With this money, there is no need to suffer from insufficient principal and delay the speed of acquisition like today.

The two are one big and one small, and there is a big difference in age, but their desire to make money is almost the same.Now that he got the money, he became more motivated. After returning to the village to rest for a while, he picked up again and started the leather purchase trip again.

Perhaps it is because the market has been cold and silent for more than ten years. Once the enthusiasm of the people is generally high, and they actively join the ranks of the mutual market, they all want to participate.day after day of acquisitions
Everything went quite smoothly until another market arrived.

There are more than a dozen villages under the town, and every week there will be a large gathering of people.The more you buy, the more you sell, and the news of the crowds spreads quickly.

Pizi started to trend, far from what it used to be, it doubled.The circulating market quickly spread this message to every village.

The purchases of the two also encountered obstacles one after another. After them, second and third dealers began to appear in the village one after another, under the same banner, buying all kinds of leather.

When the first group met, the duo had already reached the eighth village.Their traveling route was from far to near, and the farthest villages had already been purchased, this time it was Qicha Village, which was a little closer.

According to the habit, the two of them left home after selling the leather in the morning. Since the road was not very far, the time to arrive at the village was earlier than the previous ones.Before ten o'clock, the two had already entered the village, and the gongs began to be struck.

This is the move Wu Dakui thought of. In the past, the shopkeepers who walked around the streets would shake a rattle in their hands to make a sound to attract business. After it formed an inherent influence, when they heard the sound, they would know that the seller was coming.

Knocking on a gong means much the same thing, the sound is louder and more attention-grabbing.It's just that it has changed from selling to receiving, which means it's time to 'give money', but it's more popular than a shopkeeper.

Based on the experience of the village before, when the gong rang, it took a while for people to gather and go home to get the leather.Even if you don't have anything in hand, it's common to come out and ask, inquire.

However, this time it was obviously different.

A few villagers passing by saw the two beating the gong all the way, and heard from a few meters away that they were here to collect the leather. They did not gather around to ask the price, but stood in twos and threes, whispering among each other.

At first, I just thought that the people in this village were shy, guarded against strangers, and didn't talk to people outside the village easily, but I soon realized that I was wrong.

A village usually has a center, where villagers gather on weekdays.There is a big event in the village, and this is the first place to get news, and some formula bulletin boards are also set up here.

When outsiders come to the village, as long as they see the black paint on the small wall, no matter whether numbers or words are written on it, they can basically tell that this is where people in the village gather most often.

The two walked all the way, searching around, and they were going to come here and put the purchased stall here.

The idea was laid out, but the plan did not change quickly.Before I got to the place, I saw a group of people gathered under the black wall from a distance.There were three or four people sitting and standing behind the tables and chairs set up at the scene, yelling loudly: "Take away the skins, take away the skins! Pigskin, cowhide, sheepskin, rabbit skin, mouse skin, fox skin, you want any skin, buy it at a high price La--"

Yep, this is when you meet your peers and grab your job.

"What about the third girl, do you still want to go there?" Wu Dakui stopped, looked at those people and asked.

The two of them had come early enough, and they didn't expect someone else to be ahead of them.

Zhao Wenduo pondered for a while, and said: "Go, of course." Everyone has already arrived here, and they can't return empty-handed. You have to try it anyway. It's better to collect more, and less is better. It doesn't matter, it's all about gaining insight.

Knowing that someone is robbing the business, you can think of countermeasures to deal with it later.

Wu Dakui had no idea. There were many people on the other side, and at first glance they were all the kind of people who were not easy to provoke. If there was another fight because of taking the skin, I'm afraid it would be a disadvantage.

This is not to say that he is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. A person who can go up the mountain alone, no matter how bad he is, will not be frightened by the person who just had an interview.

He was worried that Zhao Wenduo was young, and if he was frightened and bumped, it would be a big loss.

No matter how much money is good, it is not as important as personal safety.

From the very beginning, this business was Zhao Wenduo's idea. As a partner, Wu Dakui had established a position for himself very well, and he did not despise or be arrogant because of his age.The little girl's opinions have always been taken seriously, and it's not much different if she doesn't say what she says.

She said go, that's it.No matter how many people there are in this village, they have already surrounded the stalls of those people, competing to take out the leather in their hands and weigh them by catty.

The two parked their bicycles at a distance of five or six meters at their own pace, unloaded the delivery guy on the car, and erected a half-high cardboard board against the front, on which was written a long time ago. In the price list, the purchase price of various types of leather is clear at a glance.

The gong in my hand was knocked twice and then put away. The gong sounded non-stop on the way into the village, and I heard it when I should have heard it. I knew what it was for. Those who had skins for sale would naturally find them, and those who didn’t want to sell them It's useless to knock again.

When the villagers saw that another purchase stall had been set up next to them, they ran over trustingly, and were attracted by the price board as soon as they stood up.

"One piece of rabbit skin, five pieces, two pieces of squirrel skin—"

"Hey, why doesn't it say how much the pigskin is?"

Wu Dakui explained aloud: "We don't accept large skins of domesticated animals, but we accept small ones. There is an additional price, which is not marked on it."

"If you don't accept pigskin, then you can't keep up with the brothers from the old Dai family next to you. They want all kinds of skins."

In the eyes of this villager, the wide variety of purchases is also a manifestation of strength, which means that the principal is not bad enough, and it belongs to a large purchaser.
