The richest man starts from a street stall

Chapter 13 Down and Out Writer?

When the driver saw that Chen Shi had hung up his phone, he was also very helpless, no wonder he.

It's all because of my jealousy, I'm not a business material at all.

Selling to fruit shops, he doesn't know fruit shops.

If it was sold to yesterday's fruit shop, it would completely offend Chen Shi and rob him of his customers. He would not dare to do such a thing, and it would be easy for Chen Shi to beat him up.

He is greedy and understands that some bottom lines cannot be broken.

What's more, the fruit store has just picked up the goods, and it is estimated that they will not be able to sell them all today. If they have a good relationship with Chen Shi, they will probably scold him.

He didn't know any other fruit shop owners, so he would lose a lot by selling wholesale.

If you sell these sugar oranges one day later, the loss will be greater.

After selling for a long time, it only sold twenty or thirty catties.

Hey, let's sell it at retail for a low price of three yuan first, hoping to make some money.

Half an hour later, the price was three yuan per catty, and the sales volume increased a little, but not much.

This time, the driver cruelly lowered the price to the cost price of [-] yuan. As a result, in the next half an hour, he sold only a dozen catties.

But there are more than 400 catties in the car. Even if it is sold for two days at a price of [-] yuan, it can only be sold for [-] or [-] catties. More, basically unsaleable.

The driver did the math, and it was a big loss.

At this time, Chen Shi had also finished his morning class and was about to have lunch with his roommate when his cell phone rang again.

After opening it, it was Uncle Li, the truck driver. After hesitating for a moment, he still answered the phone, and soon heard the voice on the other end of the phone.

"Little brother, are you finishing class soon? Come out for dinner together?" "Hey, Uncle Li, what's the matter, why don't you just tell me, I still have class in the afternoon."

The driver smiled embarrassingly, frowned and said, "My tangerines can't be sold anymore, and I still have more than 4000 catties. I think I'm going to lose money, little brother, there is really no other way?"

Now, Chen Shi replied helplessly: "Uncle Li, transfer two yuan and five to the fruit merchant, it's still easy to sell, or sell it at the door of the fruit wholesale market.

I suggest you, finish it today, or if you sell it at a lower price tomorrow, those fruit shop owners will not dare to take it. "

"Hey, that's the only way to go."

The truck driver had no choice but to hang up the phone and sell it according to Chen Shi's method. It should be able to deal with it, and he should be honest in the future.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Shi also finished today's class.

While I still have time, I want to find a few more fruit shops and sell Tangtangju.

After running for two hours, seven companies found purchase intentions, and the quantity was only about [-] catties.

After dinner, Chen Shi called the fruit shop owners and asked about the demand for sugar oranges.

After calling around and asking, it takes about 2500 catties, but it is a little less.

Then, call the fruit grower again, and make an appointment to harvest 3500 catties of fruit tomorrow, and transfer 500 yuan directly to the fruit grower by mobile phone as a deposit.

There was a transaction and a deposit, and the fruit grower quickly agreed.

The transportation weight has increased, and Chen Shi considered the packing problem of the sugar oranges.

It was packed in cardboard boxes before, and the last retail sale of a thousand jin of sugar oranges was found to be nearly [-] jin of squashed and thrown away. The loss is still relatively large.

Now that the transport weight has increased, the fruit boxes may have to be stacked four layers high, which will definitely crush the fruit on the bottom layer.

Chen Shi still made up his mind to purchase 100 plastic B3-type net baskets that can hold 14 catties of fruit, and each net basket costs [-] yuan.

Fruits in baskets can be placed on the bottom layer, supported by baskets, and the boxes on the upper layer will not be directly pressed on the fruits, so the loss will not be so great.

Even if you don't do the fruit business, the baskets can also hold other goods, and the loading is more convenient.

I also need to spend 60 yuan to buy an electronic scale. It is always troublesome to borrow someone else's scale, and I am not short of this money.

In addition, I have to rent a house to release the goods, in case they cannot be sold out one day, it is better to stock up.

It is more convenient to rent a house only outside the school.

After walking around the streets outside the school's side entrance, I found that the first floor of the street was basically shops, and the rent was too expensive.

For a 5000-square-meter shop, the rent would cost [-] yuan. Chen Shi couldn't give up that much money, and besides, he can only set up a street stall to earn the profit of the shop.

Ask about renting a house on the second floor, it will be much cheaper.

A single room with poor decoration costs only 500 yuan, and a well-decorated one-bedroom with one bathroom costs less than [-] yuan.

Chen Shi rented a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment at a monthly rent of [-], and he needed to pay [-] yuan for one deposit. The rent alone cost [-] yuan.

After finishing renting a house, I went to buy baskets and other tools, which cost another 1500 yuan.
Now, all the money earned yesterday was spent, borrowed again, and returned to the age of the old man, but this time Chen Shi was not as anxious as before.

After all this work, when I returned to the dormitory, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

As soon as Chen Shi entered the dormitory door, the little fat man saw him and asked impatiently: "Old Chen, did you sell fruit yesterday?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"I thought you knew it. You were secretly photographed and put on the school BBS. Those who took pictures are so rubbish."

Chen Shi looked at the other people in the dormitory and didn't react much. They seemed to already know about it. He was the only one who was kept in the dark and asked:

"let me see."

I took the little fat man's mobile phone, and soon there were three hot posts in the new column of the school's BBS,
"Fruit is very popular at the east gate of the school, and I bought two catties accordingly."

"It seems that the writer Chen, who has been in the limelight recently, is selling fruit?!"

"Is it a moral decline or a distortion of human nature when a declining writer sells fruit?"

For each post, there have been thousands of views and more than a dozen replies.

Chen Shi opened a hot post in the middle and uploaded several pictures, all of which were his photos, but they were all from the side and the back.

He also noted with pictures and texts: I suddenly found that there is a stall selling hot fruits at the east gate of the school. When I looked closer, the person in charge of selling the fruits turned out to be the famous writer Chen of our school. What kind of experience did I have to go through from the literature road to the big street stall? Suffering makes such a difficult decision.

The great writer Chen that everyone talks about is just satirizing Chen Shi.

Many students responded to this hot post:

"Maybe the writer is experiencing life at the bottom, maybe the inspiration comes."

"Come in and have a look, who is Writer Chen? A student who was punished by the school for a major demerit?"

"Freshman from the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, her hairstyle has changed, but her face remains the same."

"People who study mechanics can actually hack the school website. I admire this network technology!"

"Lord, there's nothing shameful about selling fruit, right? You've made money, at least much better than most students. There's nothing to laugh at."

"Actually, I admire him a lot. He can write novels. Although he can't write very well, he can hack technology and do business. See how hot the scene is. How many students can do this? It's just this guy, It's too ostentatious."

In reply to the post, some laughed at Chen Shi, while others admired him.
