Chapter 235 Bicycle
"If you buy a shop and own it, there will be no cost. Even if you don't sell cold noodles in the future, renting it out can still be a reliable and fixed income."
Sister Xia is a capable person, and her opinions should be listened to in principle, but the shops are quite expensive. Sister Su hesitated and said, "The shops are not cheap. Do you think I should buy one?"
Sister Su was the first city dweller who showed her kindness after she came here. Xia Ran said very confidently: "Buy it, you must buy it. Sister Su, prices are rising day by day, and housing prices will also rise in the future. Buying a shop is like having a hen that lays eggs every day. If you have three or five shops, think about how good your life will be. This is no worse than a formal job.
The key is that you don't have to report to work every day, and you can collect rent every month. Even if life is tight now, it's only tight for a short period of time. In the long run, it will definitely be worthwhile, and the hardship is worth it. Think about it carefully, isn't it? I have to buy it even if I have to borrow money. "
Sister Su fell into deep thought. It seemed that what she said was right. "But I can't make the decision on this. I need to discuss it with your brother-in-law."
"Yes, Sister Su, go home and discuss it carefully. If you can buy it now, don't put it off until later. It will definitely be cheaper sooner you buy it, and you can enjoy it sooner."
Xia Ran used the entire afternoon to transport goods. Xia Ran arrived at the rented yard ahead of time and put out 50 bicycles, which took up the most space. It took him many trips back and forth to transport all the goods. Fortunately, it was close and only a few minutes was required for each trip.
Two people were left to install it, while the others continued to move cloth, towels, socks, children's clothes, etc. Xia Ran planned to quietly transport the other valuables early tomorrow morning.
The second brother and his team finished installing and debugging all the bicycles before dark, and placed them neatly in the shed. Someone nearby was interested and came to see them and asked about the price.
Xia Ran was watching over the stall while the others had dinner. They left the second brother Jianmin, Da Chunzi and Guo Wei to help keep watch over things, and the rest followed Chen Qianjin back to the village.
By the time it got dark, the stove was already lit, and the kettle, thermos, cups, quilts, etc. were all bought. The electrical wires were also laid, and three 100-watt lamps illuminated the area brightly.
The department store actually recommended three pretty good temporary sales clerks. Xia Ran met them and chatted with them for a few minutes. They seemed pretty good and should have no problem handling the situation in the next few days.
Xia Ran was originally planning to go back to the guesthouse, but she found that many people came out for a walk after dinner, and they all came over to take a look when they saw the neatly arranged bicycles.
"Hey, it's actually a Phoenix brand. We actually have Phoenix brand bicycles in our county. It's not easy."
"It's really a Phoenix brand. It looks good." The uncle rubbed it to feel it, and put his whole body weight on it to test the load-bearing and hardness of the bicycle. "This bike is good, solid, much better than Sanyo, and has a good load-bearing capacity."
"It's a good brand, how can it be bad? I wanted to buy a Phoenix a long time ago, but we didn't have one here. Later, I asked someone to bring me a Fei Ge one from the city, and the quality is pretty good."
"Yeah, Fei Ge's is really good too."
Xia Ran said immediately: "Uncle, you can try riding it."
"not bad?"
"If you want to try it, just try it. Our product is of good quality and can stand the test. Feel free to try it."
The uncle happily agreed: "Okay, I'll give it a try."
Other onlookers also asked: "Can we try it?"
"Sure, there's nothing wrong with that, but you have to know how to ride it and you can't fall off. If you fall off, you'll have to buy it back."
Someone next to him interrupted: "Haha, I remember you don't know how to ride a bike. You don't want to use someone else's new bike to practice riding, do you? You don't want to break the bike on purpose."
The square-faced elder sister was immediately furious. "You are the only one who is always nagging. Why can't I just buy a bicycle and learn to ride it slowly at home? Humph."
"Then you pay for it."
"Can't you let me take a look and try it out first? It's better not to worry about it. Girl, how much is this car?"
"199 yuan a car."
One person replied: "This price is not expensive at all. Many small factories sell it for more than 200 yuan. Your price is very reasonable."
"I bought the one at home a few years ago, and it cost me more than three hundred or nearly four hundred dollars."
"Brother, you bought it when the price was at its highest."
"Who says it's not true? I thought bicycles would become more and more expensive, but who would have thought that the price would drop one day. But fortunately, the quality is still good, and I ride it carefully. After a few years, it still looks 8% new."
"That's fine. After all, you've been riding for a few more years, so you can be considered to have enjoyed it."
"That's true. But looking at the price and quality, I suddenly feel that bicycles are really cheap."
"Hahaha, isn't it really cheap? In the past, you not only had to pay money but also needed a bicycle ticket, and the bicycle ticket alone cost a lot of money. So the current price is still low and cost-effective."
Xia Ran also said: "We are selling it to ordinary people, so we set a low price on purpose. It's not easy for ordinary people to earn a little money, so it's better to be cheaper."
"You are a good talker, girl."
Xia Ran smiled and said: "I'm speaking the truth. It's not easy for everyone to make money. As long as the price is similar, it's fine."
"Girl, the exchange meeting will start tomorrow, do you have any discount activities?"
"199 is my promotional price for the next few days. So, if someone wants it tonight, I will give him 5 pairs of socks and 5 towels, all from Shanghai. How do you think? Is this a big deal? It's equivalent to saving 20 yuan. Is there anything you want now? But this buy and get one free promotion is only limited to tonight. There will be no discount after tonight."
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's real," Lao Er and his friends stared at the bicycles and the crowd. Xia Ran grabbed some socks and towels from the big box at the back and handed them to everyone: "Come, take a look. These are free socks and towels. These are also the goods we will sell tomorrow. Take a look at the quality."
Everyone took it and looked at it, "This quality is pretty good, how come it seems to be better than the quality in the department store?"
"Of course, these are from Shanghai, and they are produced by a big factory. Their machines are expensive and valuable. The products produced by the new production line are not comparable to those of the old machines. It is normal for the quality to be good, and it is a problem if the quality is poor."
