Chapter 907 Lunch Box War?

"The offal is ready, sixty yuan, thank you!"

At this moment, the old man selling beef offal. Ah no, Lin Zhengyi called him old man now. He quickly handed over the beef offal in his hand and shouted.

Now!

Lin Zhengyi understood why no one bought beef offal.

Ah shit.

Even in the future, the amount of beef offal in Hong Kong will probably be around this amount, right?

Although Lin Zhengyi doesn't eat this stuff often these days, he knows the approximate price. A dozen or twenty servings is already a lot. Who would buy this stuff if it's sold for sixty directly?

No wonder his business is bad.

Should!
Thinking of this, Lin Zhengyi didn't say anything. He took the beef offal and said, "Wait a minute, let me look for it!"

As he spoke, he took the beef offal in one hand and reached for his wallet with the other.

However, because of the one-handedness, the speed of taking the wallet is not only clumsy but also slow.

It was so slow that people from both sides of the alley were almost gathering at the beef offal stall, but Lin Zhengyi hadn't taken it out yet.

See this scene!
The old man was already sweating profusely, and said, "Hurry up!"

As he spoke, he gesticulated and even looked like he wanted to snatch Lin Zhengyi's wallet and take the money himself.

But Lin Zhengyi still said slowly, "Wait, don't be anxious!"

The old man listened with his eyes wide open.

joke!

How could he not be anxious in this kind of situation?

However, as the two groups of people got closer, the old man took a look at Lin Zhengyi, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and hurriedly ran away with his beef offal stall!
If he didn't run away, he could foresee what would happen next.

The two groups started fighting, and then his beef offal stall was affected, overturned, and the beef offal was scattered all over the ground.

By then, the losses will be more than just the beef offal in Lin Zhengyi's hands.

As he watched the other party leave, Lin Zhengyi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but then he moved quickly and took out sixty yuan from his wallet. After folding it into a square, he shook his wrist slightly, and the money flew out. Without the old man seeing it, it was directly put into the cash box on the old man's car.

That's right!

What happened just now was done intentionally by Lin Zhengyi.

It was just to teach the old man a lesson, to make him think that he had lost a bowl of beef offal, and feel a little heartbroken.

After all, if someone dares to charge sixty for something that costs only a dozen or twenty yuan, he would feel bad if he didn't teach him a lesson and make the old man anxious.

of course!

He didn't really need the sixty dollars, he was just simply unhappy.

It’s like going to the street to buy buns, and the big meat bun that usually costs two or three yuan is sold for ten yuan. Even if you can afford it, you will still feel unhappy.

So, he did it on purpose.

However, he finally gave the money.

As I said before, he didn't need the money, he just wanted to teach the old man a lesson.

Thinking!

Lin Zhengyi took the beef offal, stood on the street and started eating.

As for the two groups of people who were about to fight
Lin Zhengyi didn't care at all and just treated it as a monkey show.

"The taste of this beef offal is just average, it deserves to have no business!" Lin Zhengyi ate, complained, and continued to watch.

And it was at this time!
The two parties have officially come into contact.

The leader of one group was a muscular man wearing a vest and holding a machete.
There was a large slanting scar on the sturdy man's face, running from his forehead to the corner of his mouth.

The other side was a tall and thin man holding a Guan Gong sword.

"Scar Qiang, how dare you steal my lunch box business? Do you want to live?" Guan Gong said viciously.

"Hmph, skinny monkey, this is your first day out here? Don't you know that when it comes to business, whoever grabs it gets it? I just grabbed the lunch box business at the Le'an construction site, so what?" Scar Qiang said viciously.

Hear the conversation between the two.

"Pfft!"

Lin Zhengyi, who was eating beef offal at the side, couldn't help laughing out loud.

what is this?
A lunch box war?
If this gets out, tomorrow's newspaper headlines will definitely be this: a fight between clubs over lunch boxes? Just thinking about it makes me feel like college.

but!

Although it was funny, as a member of the anti-gang group, he also knew that the lunch box business sounded very low-class and did not seem like something a gang would do.

But contrary to the fact, the box lunch business is indeed a business that many social groups are involved in.

Even societies like Hung Hing and Tung Sing are no exception.

why?
Very simple!
Big profits!
Boxed lunches may sound insignificant, but in fact, the profits are huge.

Normal businesses selling boxed lunches will generally keep their gross profit margin at 50 to 60 percent. After deducting some water, electricity, rent, labor, etc., the net profit will also remain at 20 to 30 percent.

That is to say, for a lunch box that costs 20 yuan, excluding all other factors, the owner makes a pure profit of 5 or 6 yuan.

But this is a normal business selling boxed lunches.

And what about the community?

higher!

The society does not need a business license, and as for ingredients, normal businesses dare not use bad or junk ones, but the society has no such concerns. As long as it does not kill them, they will use the cheapest and lowest quality ones.

This way, the cost is greatly reduced.

The society can control the gross profit margin at 75% or even 80%. After deducting the costs such as labor, water and electricity, the net profit will be about 50%, or even higher.

This is a terrifying profit.

For a 20-yuan lunch box, the club leader can earn 10 yuan.

More importantly, the society’s general lunch box business is at the construction site, and the society uses its own means to monopolize the lunch box business at the construction site.

As a result, the stability of its customer base is far greater than that of normal businesses.

Normally, a merchant does business on a street. There may be two or three other merchants selling the same kind of boxed lunches around him, and seven or eight merchants selling different kinds of fast food, such as noodle soup, wontons, etc.

Once a thousand customers walk into this street, a normal merchant, no matter how delicious the food is, will only take one or two hundred at most.

But the societies always look for construction sites, and they will use their own methods to prevent others from setting up stalls around them.

As a result, the workers on the construction site can only go to them for food.

Out of a thousand workers, nine hundred and ninety of them can complete the work. The remaining ten may not buy food for other reasons.

In this way, workers can eat at home, not counting breakfast and dinner, which counts as one meal a day, and their monthly income can reach nearly 300,000 yuan.

of course!

Some people may think, is it okay not to eat?
you can!

The society will not force you to buy.

Because then the nature would be different.

However, due to the monopoly of the community, there are definitely no other restaurants around, and you can only go to places far away.

You can only go there by public transportation or by car.

The transportation and fuel costs in Hong Kong are not low.

Taking into account the cost of transportation and fuel, if you want to eat somewhere else, the cost of eating will be one or two times higher.

Even if you use a bicycle and don't have to pay for fuel, because the distance is long and the bicycle is slow, you may not be able to make it to work in time after eating.

So, that doesn’t work either.

The final and best option is to sell the boxed lunches sold by the club.

This exclusive monopoly can bring huge profits to the members of the society. It depends on the scale of the construction site. For a small construction site with dozens or hundreds of workers, the profit can be tens of thousands a month, while for a large construction site with hundreds or thousands of workers, the profit can be hundreds of thousands a month.

and!

The society is not limited to just one construction site. There are so many construction sites in Hong Kong. If you work on eight or ten of them, you can earn one or two million per month, or even more.

How could the community not be excited about this?
Therefore, the box lunch business is a business that many communities pay more attention to.

Closer to home.

Lin Zhengyi's smile immediately attracted the attention of both parties.

Both sides looked at Lin Zhengyi at the same time.
A 20-yuan lunch box, they
