"Forget it, let's start setting up a stall tomorrow. I promised to help Boss Zhang distribute leaflets today, and the soup hasn't been cooked yet."
After a few days, Lin Xiaojian knew the opening rules of Beishan Market.It is the merger of two markets, one is on the 5th and 10th of the lunar calendar, and the other is on the 369th of the lunar calendar. Now it simply inherits the opening days of both sides.Today is the 5th, which means that there will be another market tomorrow, and then there will be two days of rest, and there will be two consecutive markets.
Setting up a stall is not a compulsory job. Anyone can come whether you like it or not, as long as you pay a stall fee of 10 yuan a day.
In various villages before, this fee was collected by the village senior citizens' association, which was used to hire the elderly to clean, repair, maintain the environment and other expenses.Now moving to Xinbeishan Market, the site is provided by the government, and the sanitation office has arranged sanitation workers to take care of it.In order to let the stall owners set up more stalls without any worries, Mayor Lu ordered the relevant departments not to charge stall fees for the time being.This benevolent policy has won the support of the majority of stall owners.
It doesn't make much difference in one month, but it gave everyone a shot in the arm.Many people worry that old customers will not come to the new market, and they are not optimistic about the future development. They will feel more at ease if there are real preferential policies.
Mayor Lu's patience is only half a year. After half a year, he will never repay to maintain this policy.Whether they live or die at that time depends on whether the stall owners can make the name of Beishan Market known and enter a virtuous circle.
"Recycle and sell second-hand home appliances, whether it's old washing machines, air conditioners, or TVs, you can exchange them for money!"
"You can exchange money for discarded appliances at home!"
Boss Zhang's tone of speech is very special, with a particularly long ending. Lin Xiaojian occasionally heard the voice of a person riding a tricycle walking through the streets to collect broken copper and iron. It was this tone.
He couldn't learn this tone, he just shouted casually in his own tone.According to the explanation of the system, as long as enough people impress you, you can gain reputation.
If you want to gain the prestige of being older, you still have to do something impressive.This kind of selling is forgotten after a while, and the increase in reputation is limited.
"Are you collecting old TV sets? 20 years ago."
"receive."
"Do you want a tape recorder?"
"want."
Boss Zhang said that everything is needed, it is nothing more than a question of price.Antique home appliances from 30 or 10 years ago, some of the metal accessories inside can still be worth 20 or [-] yuan, and it is better to recycle at a price of five yuan, which is better than nothing.
For thrifty aunts, whether to put them in the warehouse at the bottom of the box or take them out to exchange for a few catties of vegetables is something they consider themselves.
After ten minutes or so, I visited Beishan Market several times. Basically, everyone who went to the market knew that this second-hand equipment was recycled. Lin Xiaojian returned to the market gate to meet Boss Zhang.
"The harvest is not bad. They gave out several business cards, and they said they would bring the goods over tomorrow for me to appraise."
"Would you like to take a look together?"
Who would have nothing to do with heavy home appliances?Knowing that there are people recycling home appliances here, the aunts asked for their contact information one after another, saying that they would bring them to him tomorrow.Some people who know how to fiddle with their mobile phones directly added the boss’s WeChat account, took photos and videos to estimate the price for him first, so as not to cause trouble—if the price is too low and they don’t want to sell it after bringing it over, wouldn’t it be in vain? strenuous.
"On-site appraisal tomorrow? Well, I also plan to set up a stall here tomorrow morning!"
Lin Xiaojian readily agreed to Boss Zhang's invitation.In his heart, he was not optimistic about how many copies of Mala Tang he could sell tomorrow morning, so helping him identify a few old home appliances was a part-time job to earn some prestige.
"Okay, see you tomorrow!"
The leaflets were almost distributed, and it was getting late. Boss Zhang had to go back to the second-hand market to open the door.If I stay any longer, I can still promote a few waves of customers who will come later, but there are priorities, so I can only do it tomorrow.
Seeing him go, Lin Xiaojian hurried back to make soup.Since we are going to open the stall tomorrow morning, we should make more soup today to finish the workload of tomorrow morning ahead of schedule.
Based on his current performance, a person is relatively busy. Apart from sleeping and working, the disposable time per day is only 2 hours in the afternoon.If you want to do something else, you need to arrange time in advance.
And if things go on like this, the gas, water and electricity in the dormitory will almost not be enough for Lin Xiaojian.In fact, the office has noticed that the consumption of water, electricity and gas in their building is not quite right, and it is also known that he is using most of it—it is more than twice as high as other buildings with the same number of people.However, because it is not easy for resigned employees to start a business and find a job again, no measures have been taken for the time being.
He himself also felt the inconvenience. The equipment here is provided for the employees to cook their own meals, and of course the power will not be very large.If you buy a large induction cooker specially designed for making soup, the bottom will be stirred automatically, and you don’t need to sit in front of it to watch, which can save a lot of time. Of course, the electricity bill is also unreasonable.
"Talk to Boss Zhang tomorrow."
As the business grew bigger and bigger, Lin Xiaojian had to make a choice between scale and cost.Sometimes being efficient = spending more money, when you earn less money, you trade time for money; when you earn more money, you have to trade money for time.
He began to think about Captain Wang's suggestion to put all the equipment directly in the night market. It doesn't matter at ordinary times, but when people come and go in the market, no one will just take the sheep and move the things away, right?
The advantage is that you don't have to worry about utility bills for a few months, and you can save hundreds of dollars a month, and it may be more than 1000 yuan in the future.
With these devices, Xiaolin Malatang faintly began to break away from the form of a roadside stall, and transformed into a regular army, without having to move around every day.
For example, if you buy a large freezer, you don’t need to move several large foam boxes around all day long, and you don’t need to store ice cubes to make the yard wet.
This is a change that has to be faced after expanding. The advantages of roadside stalls are flexibility and low cost. When you encounter difficulties from urban management or no one here goes directly to the other side to rush to the market.But now his business is becoming more and more stable, and the external environment is also very comfortable. He doesn't need to go around anymore, and he has the conditions for transformation and upgrading.
What I am most afraid of is that I bought a large freezer, a large soup bucket, and non-folding tables, chairs and benches. If one day the Beishan Market is closed, where to move these things will be a worry.
However, judging from the current situation, it is not a big problem to persist until the end of the year.With the current scale of Kobayashi Malatang, if it becomes bigger and stronger as soon as possible, the cost will be recovered in less than a month.
Based on his identification skills, he selected cheap and high-quality second-hand equipment, and the whole set cost only a few thousand yuan.If you buy all new ones, it will definitely cost 2 to [-] yuan. If you buy a well-known brand, you can’t get it without [-] yuan.
After figuring this out, Lin Xiaojian began to make a list of the equipment to be purchased:
Freezer, soup bucket, gas stove, tables and chairs...
