Chapter 22 What a wishful thinking
"Okay, just do as you say and bring me 20,000 kilograms of watermelon!" Zhang Dehua thought about it again and again and finally made up his mind.
After all, 20,000 kilograms of watermelon includes shipping fee. If 10,000 kilograms of watermelon plus shipping cost, the total price of watermelon will be about 5 cents per kilogram.
Lin Tao's same batch of 100,000 kilograms of watermelons was sold out in less than five days. How could he not sell out all his own 20,000 kilograms of watermelons in five days?
"Another 20,000 kilograms..." Chen Guanong and the other two workers looked at each other, looking surprised.
This is such good luck, you can even make money eating barbecue.
"20,000 kilograms of watermelon is okay, when do you want it?" Chen Guonong asked.
"Of course the sooner the better, it's hot these days!" Zhang Dehua responded.
The hotter the weather, the better the sales of watermelons. Once the beginning of autumn arrives, the demand for watermelons gradually decreases.
"Twenty thousand kilograms of watermelon is not a big deal. I'll deliver it to you tomorrow night. Pay half of the deposit first and pay the balance when the goods arrive." Chen Guonong continued.
At this point, a stone in Zhang Dehua's heart has finally fallen to the ground.
A few days ago, he lost business because the quality of watermelons was not as good as Lin Tao's. Now he has found the same "high-quality supply" and can compete with Lin Tao.
Selling fruits has no technical content. It is nothing more than mastering information, mastering the supply of goods, and adjusting the direction in a timely manner according to market changes.
Lin Tao just had the upper hand, and I, Zhang Dehua, can also come from behind!
Early the next morning, Lin Tao opened the store door and was about to open for business when Zhang Dehua walked in.
"You're doing well, kid. You've lost a lot of money selling watermelons these days, right?" Zhang Dehua said sarcastically.
In the event of 20 off for purchases over 20, a watermelon costs a few cents, which is obviously lower than the cost price.
"I can afford it, I'm happy to..." Lin Tao said deliberately.
"The quality of this batch of watermelons of yours is indeed good. You have a good sense. If I were you, this batch of watermelons would cost at least 3 yuan or more!" Zhang Dehua said.
Such sweet 8424 watermelon is a high-quality boutique watermelon. Even if the price is more expensive, there is no need to worry about no one buying it.
Of course Zhang Dehua didn't know Lin Tao's trump card, and he couldn't see Lin Tao's trump card clearly, which caused his judgment of Lin Tao to be biased.
In order to increase the volume, Lin Tao set the price of watermelon at the market price. After the system subsidy is fully reduced, the watermelon costs a few cents in order to detonate the market.
Although the full discount gives customers benefits, their money will not be less.
His "tragic appearance" is just the impression others have of him. In fact, Lin Tao himself made a fortune quietly.
"I have too many melons, so I have to sell them at a low price. Otherwise, if they rot, I won't get a penny." Lin Tao deliberately deceived him.
"Haha, things are changing. I'm afraid your batch of watermelons won't be sold so fast in the future..." Zhang Dehua warned as he looked at the mountains of watermelons in the store.
When his 8424 watermelon arrives tonight, he will be able to steal at least half of Lin Tao's limelight.
Lin Tao knew that Zhang Dehua was jealous of him and had no idea that he secretly approached Chen Guanong to purchase goods.
If I knew this, I would definitely laugh until my chest hurts.
[Ding, the customer actually paid 0.05 yuan, and the subsidy of 20 yuan for the "20 off for purchases over 20" activity has been received, please check!]
[Ding, the customer actually paid 1.29 yuan, and the subsidy of 20 yuan for the "20 off for purchases over 20" activity has been received, please check!]
[Ding, the customer actually paid 3.66 yuan, and the subsidy of 20 yuan for the "20 off for purchases over 20" activity has been received, please check!]
Before 8 o'clock in the morning, many customers have already come to buy watermelons.
Everyone is still very enthusiastic about buying watermelons.
"Awesome boss, they were all sold out yesterday. I didn't expect there will be watermelons again today."
"His watermelons are delicious. I can buy 3 of them for 10 yuan. I still have 1 at home, so I'll buy 3 more!"
"How many cents does a watermelon cost? Even the price of the seeds is not enough, right? Boss Niubi, drink my watermelon as boiled water!"
[Ding! Repurchase rate 3, points 3, total 2478 points detected]
[Ding! Repurchase rate 5, points 5, total 2802 points detected]
[Ding! Detected repurchase rate 11, points 11, total 3001 points]
Repurchase rate 11?
In other words, Lin Tao started selling lychees, and in just 7 or 8 days, the highest repurchase rate reached 11 times!
If things go on like this, this kind of person will be the "iron fan" of Lin Tao's fruit shop.
The key is, the higher the repurchase rate, the higher the points accumulated.
On Lin Tao's sixth day of selling watermelons, business was still booming, and even some small vendors nearby came to Lin Tao's house to purchase goods.
It ranges from hundreds to several thousand kilograms at a time.
By evening, Lin Tao's store had sold more than 10,000 kilograms of watermelons, and the situation was very good.
"Boss Zhang, your 20,000 kilograms of watermelons have arrived!" At around 8 o'clock in the evening, Chen Guonong's watermelons arrived as promised.
Zhang Dehua looked at a cart full of watermelons, his eyes shining.
"Are you crazy? You bought so many watermelons and sold them until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse?" My wife Wan Hong was shocked when she saw so many watermelons.
Zhang Dehua did not tell his wife in advance about buying 20,000 kilograms of watermelons privately.
Firstly, it was an emergency and he placed the order immediately at the barbecue stall. Secondly, he also wanted to give his wife a "surprise".
Business has been sluggish these days, so I relied on this watermelon truck to turn things around.
Zhang Dehua also tried a watermelon on the spot. The flesh of the melon was bright red, juicy and sweet.
This is it!
How did he know that the watermelon he tried was the 8424 watermelon from Chen Gua Nong, which was of course delicious.
So, Chen Guanong and two workers spent more than an hour unloading 20,000 kilograms of watermelons.
Zhang Dehua readily paid the balance, and the business was successfully completed.
"What do you know? I know why the watermelons from Xiaolin across the street are so delicious. I got them from the owner of this store. Now that I have found the source of this batch of melons, my business will definitely be good tomorrow." Zhang Dehua said confidently.
p>
"I think you're onto something!" Wan Hong glanced at him.
The fruit business has been bad these days, and people are in a daze. Are they hallucinating?
Lin Tao's watermelons are not only delicious, but also cheap. Even if they buy the same watermelons, can Zhang Dehua still sell them at a loss like him?
Wan Hong lamented in his heart, but 20,000 kilograms of watermelon had already arrived at the store. Even if he regretted it, there was no way to save it.
"Don't worry, wife, I will definitely be able to make a comeback tomorrow!" Zhang Dehua said, patting his chest.
Early the next morning, Lin Tao came to the store. Before it opened, he saw a mountain of watermelons at the entrance of the "Xiao Zhang Fruit Shop" opposite.
He thought to himself that maybe Zhang Dehua couldn't sit still anymore. Seeing that his watermelons were selling so well, he started a price war.
Lin Tao is not afraid at all. No matter how low your price is, can it be lower than mine?
"What, this is..."
Lin Tao looked up and saw a banner hanging on the sign of "Xiao Zhang Fruit Shop".
There were several words written on it, which surprised Lin Tao!
“The same type of watermelon from the fruit shop opposite, no need to queue, you can get it right away!”
Lin Tao’s same watermelon?
Can this also be used as an advertising slogan?
Chapter completed!
