Future Stamps and Coins Diary

Chapter 12 Fourth Edition Coins
When he arrived at his stall, Lu Feng took a few deep breaths and quickly calmed down.

This farce, including the deliberate provocation of Lu Youxin just now, was done intentionally. There was some element of revenge in it, but more importantly, he has let everyone in the market know that he is not easy to bully.

In a market full of experienced people, it is not easy for a newcomer to gain a foothold.

Before you have absolute strength, you will often face various overt and covert exclusion. If you want to continue in the market, it is extremely important to establish your own image.

However, after calming down, Lu Feng realized that he had nothing except the money in the card and fifty sets of remaining eight-chassis coins.

Not to mention the safe in the back, even the display cabinet in the front was empty.

"There are still a few days before the release of the 8050 quadruple set. I will fill the counter in the next few days. The main purpose is to make it low-cost, easy to sell, and quick to cash out. I don't have much money now, so I can't waste it on these meaningless things."

Lu Feng thought to himself, opened the canvas bag, and took out the diary again.

"On October 10, a new product appeared in the market today, the 'Fourth set of RMB 12 edition 80 yuan four-piece commemorative banknotes', referred to as the 50 four-piece commemorative banknotes in the market. Although the product looks good, not many people recognize it. And I found a strange phenomenon, that is, the number of merchants in the market who sell the fourth set seems to have increased suddenly, and I don't know if they have agreed on it or what..."

"December 12th. Damn it, I'm such an idiot. I clearly sensed something was wrong two months ago, but why didn't I think that there must be a reason why so many merchants suddenly started selling the same product at the same time. In the past two years, the price of 20 single sheets has been too high, which has led to the high cost of the complete set. Now that the 8050 four-piece set has come out, it can be cut into four single sheets and then matched into the fourth edition complete set, and the cost has dropped all of a sudden. The price sold to wholesalers is still the same, but the profit has increased all of a sudden! As a result, the price of the complete set excluding 8050 has also increased by nearly a thousand. If I had known earlier, I would have bought a few sets in advance and made some money to go home for the New Year."

Lu Feng slowly closed the diary, closed his eyes and thought about the road ahead.

After a moment, he finally made a decision.

A complete set of the fourth edition (8050 sheets, excluding 14 cents) excluding the 3 single sheet now costs just over a thousand yuan, which is not much different from the price of a single denomination 8050.

That is to say, the next 8050 four-piece set was issued at a price of about 240 yuan. One sheet was directly cut into four sheets and mixed into the fourth set, and the cost was reduced to a quarter. No wonder it was so popular.

The price advantage is too obvious.

If you buy a large number of 8050 quad-sets before they are released, not only will the price rise when they come out, but people in the market will think they are buying them to be cut and matched, and no one will realize that they are secretly hoarding goods.

After all, no one believed that after a large number of cuts, the price of the 8050 four-piece set would soar to more than 10 yuan and rise steadily. According to the diary, it had reached yuan in the early s.

It took more than half a year for the market to start, and it was praised as the leader of the four-edition conjoined banknotes with single denominations. It is obvious that a team has been accumulating funds during this period, otherwise it would not be so fierce in the later period.

A plan like Lu Feng's is equivalent to making money from three waves of market trends in a row.

The first wave was the increase in market heat after the release of new products, and the price of the fourth edition complete set increased. This was sustainable. Jiang Rui mainly operated this product, and made considerable profits every month. The second wave was that the complete set was a hot product for a long time, and there was a good price difference regardless of wholesale or retail. The third wave was the secret accumulation of funds from the main 8050 four-set.

After more than half a year of launch, there will be another crazy surge, with an opportunity for more than ten times the value-added.

Let’s see if it’s really as expected!

"Dou Dou, are you free to come over?" Lu Feng immediately sent a text message to Huang Dou Dou.

Soon, Huang Doudou ran up, panting, "What's wrong, Brother Feng, have you decided to change gears?"

"If I could give you some business in exchange for your head, would you do it?" Lu Feng scolded him.

"Ah? What kind of business?" Huang Doudou glanced at the empty counter and thought that there was no business at all.

"Boss Jiang, aren't you mainly making four-edition sets? If you sell them, how much commission will you get for each set?"

"Look at the number. The average is about 20 yuan. What's the matter? Are you interested?"

Lu Feng nodded: "I don't want the 8050 encyclopedia, how much is it now?"

"Is it washed, unfolded, or in perfect condition?" Huang Doudou asked. (Washed means processing old banknotes to make them look like new. They are cheap but not good, but they look good to laymen. Perfect condition means they are in perfect condition and have hardly been circulated. They are expensive but have a lot of space.)
"Of course it's the complete set. I don't have wholesale customers, so why would I cheat people with washed ones?" Lv Feng said with a smile. "The price of the complete set is a bit high. Even if it's not 8050, it's more than 9. I guess it won't be easy to sell. You might as well buy some washed ones to make your store look good, or a small set of photos. You can buy a set for or yuan, and there is a big demand." Huang Doudou suggested based on his own experience.

Of course, Lu Feng knew that what he said made sense. The low cost would still attract individual customers, and the main goal was to make small profits but quick turnover.

But Lv Feng knew that if he really sold terminals, he would never be able to sell more than large customers like Jiang Rui. They had many channels and low costs, and Lv Feng could only get goods from these large customers at this stage. It was impossible for him to provide matching products himself. He was taken advantage of by others and had no business at all.

Since we are not selling to individual customers, we have to make money from the "market", so we can only buy the hard currency in the market.

You absolutely cannot buy the washed ones, and the small complete set has nothing to do with his layout.

"It's okay. One thousand is one thousand. Give me a hundred sets first and fill up this counter." Lu Feng waved his hand and said generously.

"One hundred sets, wouldn't that be one hundred thousand? When can you sell so many? Otherwise, how about ten or eight sets first..." Huang Doudou hesitated.

"You won't even make money if I give you money? Go quickly and bring up the card machine." Lu Feng urged.

Huang Doudou thought that Lv Feng was just messing around. Given his current customer base, wouldn't it take him one or two years to sell a hundred sets?

No wonder people say 2748 is weird!

Downstairs, Huang Doudou returned to the stall and said something to Jiang Rui.

Hearing this, Jiang Rui's mouth curled up immediately: "I thought he had some ability, but in the end he chose to make the fourth edition of coins? One hundred sets at a time, I don't believe he can sell them all, don't let him fail to sell them and give them back to me at a low price!" (Market rules, for such goods that cannot be sold for a long time, it is a common practice to sell them to the upstream dealer at a loss of about 10%, especially when there is a problem with the capital chain.)
Jiang Rui opened the safe and threw a whole stack of four-edition complete sets to Huang Doudou: "Pick out 8050, take a more common number, and give him a knife to open the goods. Just think of it as a pity for him." (Knife is a professional term, referring to 1000 consecutive numbers. The same unit can be "bundle" of consecutive numbers, strips, packages, etc.)
"Okay!" Huang Doudou quickly prepared the goods.

After choosing, he went upstairs with the POS machine. Although he was worried that Lv Feng would suffer a loss and not be able to sell it, he still did it.

This is the business of the store, and he can earn a commission of about 20 yuan for each set, which is 2000 yuan, almost a month's salary.

You know, other merchants in the market won’t buy from him, they basically go directly to Boss Jiang.

He would occasionally pick up one or two small fish, but the commission he could get was no more than a few hundred yuan.

Seeing that Lv Feng accepted it without hesitation, Huang Doudou was very worried. He sighed when he thought that one of them, the younger brothers in the market, finally made a profit and had a little bit of a chance to succeed, but immediately started messing around again.

"Brother Feng, how about I return the commission to you?"

I have to say, he is a real person.

Lu Feng patted him and comforted him, "It's okay. What's yours is yours. If you really feel bad about it, you can treat me to pork trotter rice for a week starting tomorrow, right?"

Huang Doudou was relieved: "To offset the meal you owe me, I can only treat you for six days."

He said that he would start saving money. He has saved more than 1,000 yuan recently, but he doesn't know how long he can keep saving.

"Hahaha, okay!" Lu Feng couldn't help laughing. The two of them spent a few dollars to buy transparent plastic bags for banknotes, picked out some good numbers, and placed them on the counter.

Before the market closed, Lu Feng looked at the stall that had finally been put in a decent state, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around to lock the glass door.

The 8050 four-piece set will be released in about a week. When the price goes up, I should be able to make a small profit from the yuan.

But with the remaining hundreds of thousands, how to buy more 8050 four-in-a-row without realizing it is still a problem.
