Chapter 373: First earned more than 900,000 (400.012 million
After answering the phone, Cao Shujie said something to his wife.
He said: "The train will arrive at around 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. I will go there now. Will you go?"
"It's past 6 o'clock in the morning? So early?"
Cheng Xiaolin looked at Mengmeng lying on the sofa next to her, sticking her butt out and playing with building blocks. She wanted to shake her head and refuse, but Mengmeng's ears were sharp. She heard what her father said and shouted: "Dad, I'm going, I'm going." ."
"Mengmeng, it's already cold at 6 o'clock in the morning. What are you doing?" Cheng Xiaolin said to her, "Besides, you can't wake up at that hour."
"I can wake up. I want to go out and play with dad anyway." Mengmeng recognized this point.
Cao Shujie smiled and said, "Why don't you hurry up and change your clothes?"
"Oh, let's go out to play." Mengmenggui shouted to express her happiness.
The next moment, she rolled over and slipped off the sofa and ran upstairs.
When she saw her grandfather Cao Zhenghu, she couldn't hide her secret and said in a small voice: "Grandpa, I'm going to go out with my father. I'll be back in a few days. I will miss you."
She thought it was just like her father going out a few days ago, and that he was going to go there for several days.
Cao Zhenghu said with a smile: "If you miss me, then don't go."
"No, I'm going upstairs to change clothes. Goodbye, grandpa." Mengmeng ran upstairs.
Cao Shujie explained the situation to his grandfather below, and Cao Zhenghu waved his hand: "You go quickly, don't delay the business."
"I'm at home by myself, no problem," he said.
"That won't work either. I'll call my parents and ask them to come over." Cao Shujie was still worried.
Then he called his father, Cao Jianguo, and after explaining the situation to him, his father asked him if there was anything else he needed help with.
"Dad, it's not necessary for now. I'll call you if anything happens." Cao Shujie said.
Before departure, Cao Shujie called Zuo Le and Nie Bin respectively and told them to meet at the Quancheng Freight Railway Station at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning for talks.
Both of them readily agreed.
That afternoon, the family of three drove to Quancheng. When they arrived, it was still dark, and Mengmeng was still very excited. She was in high spirits at the moment, and seemed to have endless energy in her body.
The weather was cold and the temperature was low. Her mother wrapped her in two layers of thick clothes and made her look like a koala, but it still couldn't stop Mengmeng from yearning for the outside world.
"Wow, dad, look, it's so beautiful there."
"Mom, look at that car, buy me one."
"Dad, where is that place? It's so high. Buy it for me."
Cao Shujie followed the direction of his daughter's finger and looked at the large gilded characters of Quancheng Radio and Television Center, thinking to himself: "Mengmeng, you think so highly of your father, I don't even have the confidence to buy it for you."
This is not about money!
Besides, he really doesn’t have that much money!
Cheng Xiaolin listened to her daughter's innocent words and laughed until her stomach hurt.
She also saw the 'Quancheng Radio and Television Center' building, and added to her jealousy: "Mengmeng, mom will take a photo with this building as the background for you. Remember, when you grow up, you can ask your dad to ask for this building." Is the building good?"
She thought her daughter would say "yes", but she didn't know that Mengmeng didn't follow the routine at all: "No, it's too big, I can't take it away."
Cao Shujie thought that Mengmeng's ambition was really quite big.
While the mother and daughter were chatting, Cao Shujie entered the nearby hotel and took his and his wife's ID cards to get a room. After putting down their small luggage bags, the family of three found a place to eat.
According to the plan, they would go to the train freight station to wait at four or five o'clock tomorrow morning. They did not go anywhere else to play in the evening. After dinner, they went directly back to the hotel to rest.
Mengmeng couldn't sleep at first, but both Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin closed their eyes and ignored her. Mengmeng gradually felt that playing alone in bed was too boring, so she also lay down and closed her eyes.
Do you think she is asleep?
But Mengmeng closed her eyes for a short time, then opened them a few times, turned to look at her father, and then her mother. Seeing that neither of them moved, she closed her eyes again.
After repeating this for two or three times, Mengmeng became tired. She let out a slight and even breathing sound from her little mouth. She really fell asleep this time.
While others were still playing, Cao Shujie's family of three fell asleep early.
At around 4 a.m. on the second day, the alarm clock that had been set rang, and Cao Shujie got up.
Seeing that his wife and daughter were still sleeping, Cao Shujie thought about not calling them mother-in-law and going there by himself.
But before he finished putting on his clothes, Cheng Xiaolin also opened her eyes and asked in confusion, "Shujie, is it time?"
"It's almost time. If nothing else happens, we still have about two hours to get into the station." Cao Shujie said.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaolin quickly put on clothes and washed up. She also did not forget to wake up Mengmeng.
Cao Shujie also said: "I'm still thinking of letting you two sleep in the hotel for a while."
"Why are you sleeping? If Mengmeng is willing to come, let her follow you. She will know the consequences of this, so she won't want to follow you again next time you go out." This is what Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie thinks it makes sense.
But neither Cao Shujie nor Cheng Xiaolin thought that Mengmeng looked different from a normal child.
After being woken up by her mother, she was even more excited than Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin when she learned that she had to rush to the freight train station.
Her little face hadn’t been washed yet, her eyes were still covered with eye drops, and she didn’t even eat breakfast, so she urged her father to leave quickly.
When they drove to the train freight station and parked the car in the parking lot, Cao Shujie took his wife and daughter into the station to go through the procedures for picking up the goods.
At this time, Mengmeng kept watching with wide eyes, as if she wanted to write down this set of procedures.
The eight container shipping trucks that Cheng Xiaolin was looking for were already waiting here. The person in charge was named Xing Qirui. After seeing Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin, Xing Qirui came over to the station with them to check the situation first.
Let's see how to load the car later.
At the same time, Zuo Le and Nie Bin also braved the severe cold and came here early to wait.
When they saw each other, the two people instantly understood that it was Cao Shujie who told them.
They met at Cao Shujie's place and had dinner together. They were not hostile because they were both in the fruit business. After all, their markets were different.
The market in Quancheng is huge, but the market across the country is even bigger, and there isn’t much overlap between them.
What Cao Shujie didn't expect was that Zuo Le didn't come alone this time. He also brought four young men with him, who seemed to be his aggressors.
As for Nie Bin, the six people in his team seem to be inseparable.
In addition to Nie Bin, Cao Shujie remembered the names of Xu Su and Yang Ruixue.
People from all directions gathered together and chatted until, at twenty-three minutes past six, a train loaded with goods pulled into the station.
Cao Shujie found his eight containers according to the bill of lading, and then contacted the train station to help load the trucks.
After all the work was done, it was already past 12 noon. This was because Cao Shujie gave the person who helped load the car some money, otherwise it would not be finished now.
Cao Shujie first told his wife to transfer the remaining 673,600 yuan to Adilia through online banking. He also called Adilia and explained the situation to him.
After the container is unloaded, it will be taken back to the designated place at Quancheng Freight Railway Station.
He then spoke to Xing Qirui, the person in charge of the consignment vehicle, and they drove the vehicle outside and found a place out of the way to stop temporarily.
After removing the lock on the container, Cao Shujie asked Xing Qirui to help open one of the containers.
Seeing the baskets of apples neatly stacked in the container, and looking at the quality of the apples, Nie Bin instantly recognized this batch of goods.
He also asked Cao Shujie: "Boss Cao, are they all of this quality?"
"Yes, they are all of the same quality. There are 8 containers in total, 240 tons of apples. If necessary, I can open the other seven containers to show you." Cao Shujie said this.
He has this confidence!
Zuo Le saw that although the quality of these apples was not as good as those grown by Cao Shujie, it was still very good. His original intention of coming here to make soy sauce changed.
"Boss Cao, I know there is a parking lot on the right at the intersection four miles ahead. Let's go there and have a look." Zuo Le said.
Nie Bin also agreed to this plan.
They got in the car again and hurried toward the parking lot in front.
After arriving at the place, they asked the driver to help open the container. Nie Bin and Zuo Le both looked at the quality of apples in other containers and randomly took two to taste.
Cao Shujie also handed two apples to each driver of the eight cars and asked them to taste them as a check.
After Zuo Le and Nie Bin finished reading, they approached Cao Shujie and asked him at what price he would ship the goods.
Cao Shujie said pitifully: "I shipped this apple from XJ Changji, and the cost alone was more than three yuan. You guys can give me a price."
"So high?" Zuo Le was surprised.
Nie Bin looked at Cao Shujie suspiciously, always feeling that the price was reasonable.
Cao Shujie had been prepared for this move for a long time. He began to tell them what the purchase price was. How much does freight cost, packaging costs and labor, etc.
"Boss Cao, you can tell me a price." Nie Bin asked him.
Zuo Le also means that there must be a price so that they can distribute the goods to the dealers or sales terminals below.
Cao Shujie did get the goods, but he doesn't have the following channels now.
He expects to sell more than 800 tons of apples slowly by himself. Once the apples are spoiled, he may not be able to finish the business.
For Cao Shujie, using the sales channels of Nie Bin and Zuo Le to sell the apples early and get the price difference is how he puts money in his pocket.
These apples cannot be cashed out in a day, which is not considered making money for Cao Shujie.
"Both of you, let me tell you something from my heart. I'm not making any money with this batch of goods. I'm just trying to measure the quantity to open up the market."
"Let's see, I sell it for 3 yuan, 8 cents and 7 cents per catty. You can see if it works and whether what I sell is very cheap." Cao Shujie emphasized.
The wholesale price of apples on the market is now about 4 yuan, 35 cents, but the actual price to sell to customers is more than 5 yuan to 6 yuan per catty.
There are also better quality ones that sell for higher prices.
In other words, after Zuo Le and Nie Bin bought these apples, they could make a profit of nearly 50 cents per kilogram based on the current market price.
As long as they get a little more goods, the profit is not low.
It's just that they have serious doubts about what Cao Shujie just said about not making money.
Who doesn’t want to earn more money? Would someone like Cao Shujie do something against humanity?
Nie Bin didn't believe it and said, "Boss Cao, please make the price cheaper."
"We also have a lot of people to support. At this price, we really can't make any money." Nie Bin said.
Zuo Le also complained: "Boss Cao, you have few employees. You don't know how difficult it is now."
"Stop it!" Cao Shujie looked at the two of them and said, "If you don't want it, I'll sell it in the store."
He looked at the two of them with evil eyes: "My bottom line is to pay a fair price, so you can't let me sell it at a loss, right?"
Cheng Xiaolin watched the tug-of-war between her husband and Zuo Le and Nie Bin. She really admired her husband's ability to open his mouth.
Cheng Xiaolin and her husband did some calculations and estimated all the expenses. The average cost of apples from Changjila, Xinjiang to Qingshi Town was 2 yuan, 37 cents per kilogram.
The 3 yuan, 87 cents that her husband just mentioned was a profit of 1 yuan and 50 cents for just one dollar.
If the transaction can be completed, this is a 63% profit. He still doesn't make any money?
Mengmeng couldn't understand what her father and two uncles and uncles were talking about. She just thought it was fun.
Be patient and listen to their bickering, which seems quite lively.
Cheng Xiaolin didn't know how her husband bargained with Xinjiang Changji, but based on the scene in front of her, Cheng Xiaolin also guessed the tragic scene during the bargaining period between her husband and Adilijiang.
I couldn’t help but sigh: “It’s so hard to do business!”
Zuo Le and Nie Bin joined forces and finally worked hard to cut the price by 9 cents, and the shipping price was 3 yuan, 79 cents.
The moment they heard Cao Shujie's agreement, both Zuo Le and Nie Bin felt that discussing business with Cao Shujie was too tiring and difficult.
Zuo Le even wanted to walk away, but when he thought that these apples could make a lot of money, he gave up this childish idea.
In the end, the two of them asked Cao Shujie for two containers of 60 tons of apples each.
While they were shaking people and cars on the phone, Cheng Xiaolin called her husband aside and asked him how much money he could make this time.
Cao Shujie said: "It's not too much, I only earn more than one yuan per pound,"
Cheng Xiaolin was filled with admiration when she heard her husband's calm tone.
Cao Shujie had already gone to chat with Nie Bin and Zuo Le.
Cao Shujie first calculated the accounts. Each person received two containers of apples, and one person was given 454,800 yuan. The two people added up to 909,600 yuan.
But Cao Shujie brought this batch of goods from Changji, Xinjiang, and spent a total of more than 1.1 million.
According to Cao Shujie's current sales method, the cost of the 240 tons of apples has been almost half recovered before he returns to Qingshi Town, and he still has half of the apples unsold.
Cao Shujie plans to bring the remaining 4 containers back to Qingshi Town, select the size of the fruits, and sell them by category, striving to maximize profits!
