Chapter 33: First Battle Victory! (Please Read!)

When they arrived at the fruit area, Jiang Tao and the other three pretended not to know them.

They each found an empty area to park their car.

As soon as he parked the car, a market manager with a red armband on his sleeve stopped beside Jiang Tao's truck.

"Master, how much is it per day?"

After Jiang Tao pushed the door and got out of the car, he greeted the administrator with a smile and handed him a cigarette.

"20 a day, WeChat or Alipay?"

The administrator who collected the fees was a thin old man with gray hair, who looked to be in his sixties.

"Z Pay Pay!"

Jiang Tao took out his phone, scanned the old man's Alipay payment code with a ding, paid the 20 yuan booth fee, and said:
"By the way, Master, if I sell all my goods and go back to pick them up, I don't have to pay again, right?"

"It's 20 yuan for a day, and we won't charge you again. We're an organized and disciplined, serious unit, and we won't charge you randomly."

The old man gave Jiang Tao a look that said, "You don't have to worry."

"Okay! Then you're busy!"

Jiang Tao said something to the old man with a smile, then turned around and prepared to go back to the cab to get the small loudspeaker for the radio.

"Master, how much are your tangerines?"

Before Jiang Tao could turn on the loudspeaker, an old lady wearing a green down jacket, with curly hair and holding a few green onions in her hands, stopped in front of the truck and asked the price.

Jiang Tao stopped, looked at the aunt and said with a smile: "10 yuan per catty, one piece is exactly 10 catties, 100 yuan."

"How much? 10 yuan? Young man, your price is too high! It was only 5 yuan per pound at the market the day before yesterday! It's only been two days, and it's already 10 yuan?"

When the aunt heard Jiang Tao's offer, her eyes widened and she looked very surprised.

Jiang Tao patiently explained: "Auntie, you don't know something!
There is a blizzard in G West, and even the sugar oranges can't come out.

We pay more than eight yuan per kilogram when we buy goods in the wholesale market!

Ten dollars isn't much to ask of you. If you don't believe me, you can ask around elsewhere."

"10 yuan is too expensive! I won't eat it anymore."

After the aunt finished speaking, she muttered to herself and shook her head as she walked towards Liu Zhiyuan, who was closest to Jiang Tao.

Although he failed to close the first customer deal, Jiang Tao was not discouraged. He turned on the loudspeaker and started broadcasting.

"Sugar oranges, sweet and sour sugar oranges, authentic Western sugar oranges, 10 yuan per pound!"

The devilish hawking sound from the small loudspeaker began to play in a loop, attracting the attention of several fruit vendors selling apples and bananas nearby.

This was the first time they had seen tangerines priced at 10 yuan per pound!
Jiang Tao lit a cigarette and looked at the old lady who walked away from his stall.

The aunt first stood in front of Liu Zhiyuan's stall for half a minute, then walked towards Shan Yufei.

He stayed with Shan Yufei for another ten seconds, and finally walked towards Zhang Chao.

After repeated confirmation, the aunt finally confirmed that the price of sugar oranges had really increased!
Before she went out, her granddaughter specifically asked for this to eat, and she would definitely be angry if she didn't buy it.

Finally, the aunt had to compromise with the market and exchanged a bright red hundred-yuan bill for a 10-jin box of tangerines.

Among the four, Zhang Chao became the first to open.

With the broadcast through the small loudspeaker, there is no need to bargain.

Jiang Tao directly started the straight hook fishing mode, and those who were willing to take the bait would be caught.

"Master, why are these tangerines so expensive? They were only 5 yuan per pound at the last market, and now they've gone up to 10 yuan!"

"Beautiful lady, the roads in Gxi are blocked by heavy snow, and the tangerines can't be shipped out. Our purchase price is already over eight yuan, and we don't want to sell them so expensively, but there's nothing we can do!"

The lady in front of Jiang Tao came all the way from Zhang Chao's direction asking questions, and finally had to compromise with the market. She spent 200 yuan, bought two pieces and left.

Originally, Jiang Tao thought that the business would be greatly affected at the beginning of the price increase.

After all, it takes time for consumers to accept this sudden price surge.

The result was far beyond his expectations.

He pulled a full truck of 300 tangerines, and they were all sold out before noon!
In just one morning, he had earned over 3 yuan! This situation really puzzled Jiang Tao.

This situation seems to go against market rules!

"Forget it, why think about it? The faster and more I sell, the better it is for me!"

"No matter what his reason is, the important thing is to go back and get another truck!"

Jiang Tao couldn't figure out the reason behind this, so he stopped thinking about it. He opened the car door and jumped in, ready to drive back to Xiaoshahe to pick up the goods.

Ding Dong!

As soon as Jiang Tao got in the car, he received a WeChat message on his mobile phone from Liu Zhiyuan.

[Brother Jiang! It's on the news! Look, this tangerine is trending!]

Seeing Liu Zhiyuan’s message, Jiang Tao opened his Weibo and took a look.

There is actually a hot search about tangerines on the hot search list.

And the position is not low!
The title of the 8th item on today’s hot search list is - City-wide Wanted Sugar Oranges!
When I clicked on it, I saw that it was indeed a news report on the price trend of sugar oranges.

Not only did Jiang Tao and his team raise prices, the price of tangerines in major supermarkets in Beijing also doubled.

The prices of tangerines have all risen in various fruit supermarkets, markets, and wholesale markets.

And they are all in serious shortage.

Seeing this, the smile on Jiang Tao's lips was harder to suppress than AK!
After calming down, Jiang Tao said something to Liu Zhiyuan and the other three in the WeChat group he had just created, and went back to pick up the goods first.

For lunch, Jiang Tao took a quick bite and packed a portion of fried meat pancake and a portion of pork head for each of Liu Zhiyuan and the other three.

Eat and drink enough, and continue working!

At around 2 p.m., Liu Zhiyuan and Zhang Chao also finished selling one cart and went back to get another cart to continue selling.

At 2:, Shan Yufei's car was sold out.

At 4: in the afternoon, Jiang Tao sold out his second truckload of goods for the day and went back to load another truckload.

Busy until 6: in the evening.

As the sun set, the crowds at the Shahe Fair dispersed, and Jiang Tao and his companions reluctantly called off the fair.

When we returned to Xiaoshahe, it was already around 7: in the evening.

Jiang Tao asked Liu Zhiyuan and the other three to find a relatively good restaurant in the urban village.

We won the first battle today and got off to a good start.

As the largest shareholder and the biggest beneficiary of the tangerine project, Jiang Tao was willing to treat his brothers to a meal.

Chicken stewed with mushrooms, boiled pork slices, braised pork elbow, pickled fish, roast duck...

A small dining table in the restaurant was filled with the restaurant's signature dishes.

"Brothers, you've all worked hard today. Eat and drink enough, go back and have a good rest. We'll continue tomorrow!"

"Take advantage of the end of the year to make some serious money and go home to have a good New Year!"

"Come on, come on, let's do one."

"Done!"

"Done!"

Liu Zhiyuan and Shan Yufei had equally bright smiles on their faces.

Only Zhang Chao's smile looked a little bitter.

What a deal!

My brothers are all making money, but I am left behind!

However, we can't blame others for this.

Brother Jiang gave me the opportunity, but I didn’t seize it!
