It was supposed to be more than four hours' drive, but Boss Chen just stepped on the gas pedal, and he arrived in City X in less than four hours. The speed was astonishingly fast... mainly due to the astonishing bumps.
When getting out of the car, the fat man was holding on to the door, unable to stand up straight, and he took a long time to recover.
"No, if you do this again when you go back, I will jump out of the car."
The fat man said to Chen Mu resentfully while leading Chen Mu to a shopping mall next to the sidewalk.
"Okay, if you dare to jump out of the car, then walk back by yourself, I don't care about you."
Chen Mu glanced at the fat man angrily, and said with disdain: "I think you are a coquettish person. We came all the way here together. Why is there nothing wrong with me? To put it bluntly, you are not used to it, as long as you get used to it, what are you doing?" Nothing."
The fat man thought for a while, and felt that the boss's words seemed to make sense, so he muttered a few words silently, and didn't say any more.
This small shopping mall is a wholesale center for small commodities. Each store is not big, but it has everything.
According to Fatty, this place is already the largest small commodity wholesale center in City X.
As the fat man walked in, the two came directly to an outdoor goods store on the third floor. The fat man pointed to the store and said, "Their tents are the most complete. See if there is anything you want... Well, actually I Think about it, we should do whatever is cheap, as long as it is a tent."
Chen Mu didn't say a word, and agreed with what the fat man said in his heart, the most important thing is to keep costs down.
Of course, under this premise, try to bring out some features, and there must be requirements.
The two entered the store, and Chen Mu negotiated with the clerk, and soon found what he wanted. The triangular earth tent was actually more expensive than ordinary outdoor tents, and each one was 50 more expensive.
Chen Mu was a little undecided, so he discussed it with Fatty, and Fatty also hesitated: "How about we buy a few of both, and when the time comes, we will give whichever one the tourists need."
After a slight pause, the fat man came up with a good idea for the boss: "Well, ordinary ones can be provided for free, and we will also charge an extra fifty for the earthen tents. What do you think?"
The boss glanced at the fat man appreciatively, and patted him on the shoulder: "Not bad, boy, you have a quick brain, and you have money!"
The matter was settled like this, Chen Mu ordered ten ordinary tents, another ten earthen tents, picked up some oil lamps, stargazing telescopes, etc., and then paid and left the shop.
At first, he thought that the task was completed and he could go back, but he didn't expect that the fat man would suddenly pull him and go to a shop in the corner of the second floor.
"how… "
Chen Mu originally wanted to ask him what he wanted to do, but when he saw clearly what the store was selling, he was speechless immediately, and only squinted at the fat man to see how he would explain it.
The main products in this store are small umbrellas. There are all kinds of small umbrellas in the store, which are dazzling and colorful.
The fat man said: "Since we want to build an outdoor tent, we must have this thing. It costs five yuan each to ensure a stable income."
Chen Mu frowned, and said earnestly: "What do you think I should say about you, why are you always thinking about these things? We are a serious business, and we are in tourism, not a erotic hotel."
The fat man said, "It doesn't matter. We get it back and put it there. If you need it, you don't need it. What's the matter?"
"No, we must not go astray."
Chen Mu resolutely refuted Fatty's statement, while revealing some real thoughts: "This stuff is quite expensive, and it has a shelf life. If customers really need it, we can buy it later. There is no need to worry about it now. "
The fat man pointed to the boxes of small umbrellas in front of him a little bit aggrieved: "What do you mean by going astray? Look at the ones here...the main reason is that the price is cheap. If you come today, don't you just buy some goods along with you? It won't be easy if you come here later." .”
Chen Mu looked at the prices marked on those boxes of small umbrellas in a blink of an eye, wow, he was suddenly a little shocked.
That price was much cheaper than what he knew before.
Turning his mind very quickly, Chen Mu showed a calm smile: "It seems...it's really suitable for buying some goods."
The fat man looked at him and didn't want to speak.
Chen Mu chuckled, turned his head to the shop owner with great pride, and said, "Boss, bring me these models, one hundred each."
…
Before leaving City X, Chen Mu remembered that there was an extra chef at home, so he took Fatty to the vegetable market again, and asked Ma Yili what kind of food Ma Yili was good at. He bought a lot of vegetables and meat, and then went to cheer. Stop and rush back.
Back at the gas station, there was already a sumptuous dinner waiting for them.
After Chen Mu finished his meal, he silently walked into his parents' room and tidied up the room.
To be honest, the death of his parents came too suddenly, and he couldn't accept it after a long time, and he always felt that they were still by his side.
When he first came to the gas station, whenever he was alone, he often felt lonely, hesitant, and sometimes he couldn’t sleep, so he would go into his parents’ room and stay for a while, recalling the times when he got along with his parents. Little by little, the mood will naturally improve, and it feels like a little comfort in my heart.
But after such a long time, he has gradually gotten used to everything here, and with the popularity of the gas station now, he felt that it was unnecessary to keep his parents' room, so he packed it up and prepared for the Ma brothers and sisters to live in.
From this day on, the brothers and sisters of the Ma family really settled down at the gas station.
…
The next day, a group of ten people came to the gas station, and Chen Mu took the fat man along to receive them.
In the past few days, after being fermented by "the most beautiful doctor for poverty alleviation", more and more people called Chen Mu, and he had already begun to feel the pressure of the growing business.
As soon as he connected three regiments, one after another, the itinerary was very close.
However, after the first group arrived, there was an accident. The plane was delayed due to the weather, so when they arrived at the gas station, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and they couldn't travel at all.
Helpless, Chen Mu had no choice but to take out the tent and test the water.
Unexpectedly, the tourists were very interested in this, and they all said that living outdoors, living in tents and watching the stars is the best. They were all so excited that they didn’t need Chen Mu to help them set up tents and lay out sleeping bags. .
Standing on the sidelines, Chen Mu looked at the tourists with such strong hands-on skills, and felt a little comforted. He just felt that if everyone was like this, then the gas station would soon be well-off.
It has to be said that among the ten people, six tents were shared, and these six tents were earthen tents with fifty yuan added, so the three hundred yuan was safely pocketed.
Moreover, the small umbrellas that had just been purchased were also opened that night, and three were sold for a total of fifteen yuan.
Although fifteen yuan is small, it can't stand the steady flow of water.
From this sales data, Boss Chen has already seen a bright market prospect, so that night, he personally opened a bottle of 18-year-old Ice Coke, and rewarded his popular leader, Fatty.
Fatty was so encouraged that when drinking Coke, he couldn't help making an extra box of instant noodles, which made the boss hesitant to talk for a few times.
