Chapter 131: A Business That Doesn’t Make Money
Qin Gang was driving the car into the used car market and parked next to Shen Zhibin's shop. This time he seriously felt that the market was huge. From the parking position to the visual end, it was estimated that it would be seven or eight hundred meters.
Qin Gang walked into the store and an advertisement plaque showed a few advertising slogans.
1. Although the car is second-hand, it is cheap and of high quality, with a complete range of types, and enjoys unlimited benefits.
2. Play with the used car market, identify the car platform, be honest and trustworthy!
3. "Primary" power, "source" of power, positive energy for unity and struggle.
4. Good car platform, professional used car platform, gives you the quality of being tall, rich and handsome.
5. There is always one that suits you, "If You Are the One".
6. If you want to laugh at the world, you must have a good car. If you want a good car, you must have a good car platform.
After reading it, Qin Gang smiled in his heart. Such a promotional slogan is very imposing! With such a large store, the slogan on the platform is definitely an eye-catching existence.
Moreover, Qin Gang also noticed that there was a piece of paper under the raid, saying: This store sells all kinds of used cars, as long as you have a good eye for it, you can choose whatever you want, and you can be cheap and good!
Qin Gang looked at the store carefully and found that except for the door, the overall decoration of the store seemed very simple and simple, but each place had a delicate feeling, which was completely different from doing second-hand transactions.
"The boss just take a look, from low to high, we have all kinds of brands in our store."
A middle-aged man came over and handed Qin Gang a cigarette.
"Actually, I don't have an idea yet, let's take a look first."
Qin Gang took the cigarette, thanked him, said no, and lit it and started smoking, then looked around at the situation in the store.
The shop is quite large, with various styles of cars placed inside.
Qin Gang turned his attention to a white sedan, which is a certain brand of x6, with a unique shape.
The body lines are smooth and beautiful, full of modern technological aesthetics. The space inside the car is spacious and comfortable, and the cabin layout is relatively novel. It uses a two-seater driver's seat. There is a barrier lever between the front cover and the rear cover, which is convenient for observation of the music playing in the car audio, making people feel relaxed and comfortable.
"How is this car?" the middle-aged man asked when he saw Qin Gang staring at the car.
Qin Gang replied: "It's very good! I don't know how much it costs?"
The middle-aged man said: "About 206,000 yuan."
"Wow! So expensive!" Qin Gang was surprised.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "This is the lowest price. If you like it, you can talk about the price."
Qin Gang also smiled: "Look first, I've come over and looked at several stores. Your company is the largest, and the boss has a strong financial resources. If you collect so many cars at once, you have to put in a lot of funds."
"This industry is like this. I started collecting cars and preparing all the goods in the first few years, and then selling them for a year. I can't bet."
"So used cars are in this market. Will you not collect cars in the middle of this process?"
"Of course, it will also be charged, but it is different from the year's growth. The year is full of goods, and the year's goods are basically almost done by the end of the year. You have to prepare the goods. If you have a car and try to sell it as much as possible, the price will be higher than the first line. At this time, the car dealer actually has no shortage of cars. You will carefully choose the car, and the price will definitely be reduced. Everyone understands this." said the middle-aged man.
"I think the car shop next door is so small that it doesn't have much stockpiling. Do you also choose the middle section to suppress the car collection price, so that you can earn higher profits?" Qin Gang said.
"Old Shen next door." The middle-aged man laughed.
"I go to his place to drink tea from time to time. His tea is good. All the cars here are coming with him. But it's hard to make the car."
A middle-aged man suddenly remembered something: "You are..."
Qin Gang revealed his identity and expressed his intention.
"Oh, I said it." The middle-aged man asked Qin Gang to sit down in the reception area.
"Old Shen's approach should be to make some money. It has no scale and has little stocking up. If you think that customers come to the store, there are only three or five cars to choose from, and it is difficult to get to know each other. Look at me, there are nearly a hundred cars to choose from. No matter how you look at it, you can have a model that is suitable for price and likes. The probability of transaction is high. In the store of Lao Shen, a customer can go out in less than five minutes and there is no chance of chatting. No. We are in the service industry and our business is all done through chatting."
"Then he might not make much money in this way." Qin Gang said.
"It's definitely OK to make money from a meal. It's just that I'm spending money on a business, probably that's the level."
"Then this is not a waste of money, why bother to waste it?" Qin Gang was puzzled.
"I guess his family is in his house. The few people in his store are all relatives from his wife's countryside. When they come to the city, they have to find a place to go. Although this used car dealer doesn't make much money, they finally settled the people."
"Shen Zhibin also has a tea shop."
"Yes, the tea shop is his money-making business."
"Then you can arrange the tea leaves too."
The middle-aged man laughed: "That's his money-making business. How could he ask someone to share his money? Think about it, those relatives went to the tea shop and paid such a little salary when they saw that they were so profitable, they would definitely feel unbalanced. Maybe Old Shen's family has to do it. His trick is to give his relatives enough face, and he is also smart."
It is also possible to operate like this, and Qin Gang also thinks that Shen Zhibin is a good person.
"It seems that the boss and Shen Zhibin are still very familiar with each other. I have revealed all these family affairs to you." Qin Gang said.
"It's not a question. I'll talk about it when I'm having a tea, and I'll say it out after talking. In fact, people are not that complicated. As long as you don't have any conflicts of interest with him, you don't have to make plans. If you sit together to drink tea, you will always talk about family affairs. This is normal."
Qin Gang took out two gangsters photographed in the surveillance camera and let the middle-aged man identify them.
"I've seen it several times, but I haven't talked to them."
"I've seen them in Shen Zhibin's shop?"
"Yes, they don't know what their relationship with Shen Zhibin is. I feel that there should be other business dealings."
The middle-aged man handed Qin Gang another cigarette.
"No, I can't do it. I'll draw one and a half pieces in the social engagement style, and I don't usually draw. Shen Zhibin has any other business besides running tea." Qin Gang said.
"Uh..., I really don't know this. If someone doesn't say it, you can't ask if it's right? Everyone has a little secret in their belly. Just have fun with a happy tea. By the way, I heard from the people in their store that Lao Shen was not saved last night. It's really unexpected that things happened. His store probably has to be withdrawn."
"Well, why? Since you don't lose money, it's okay to continue to operate."
"That won't work. His wife can't manage it. Shen Zhibin can't even control her relatives. She can't control herself. If she continues, she can only spend more money and get in. In the end, she will be a business that will be a loss. It's better to be closed now. But I heard that he is taking this place very cheaply, so I have to inquire and merge this room and then add it to a scale." said the middle-aged man.
Qin Gang admired in his heart that the business sensitivity in the brain nerves is indeed a business mind.
Qin Gang showed Zhang Jiajun's photo, and the middle-aged man recognized it at a glance: "This is the salesman who helped him get insurance. I have seen it twice, but Mr. Shen, you are not too arrogant to him."
"Why?"
"have no idea."
Qin Gang showed Bian Wei's photo again: "Have you seen this handsome guy?"
"No, he is quite handsome. Is this his friend or a relative?" the middle-aged man asked back.
"As a friend, he came yesterday, and came early in the morning. It should have been there before the thunderstorm."
The middle-aged man shook his head: "I've never seen him before, but Lao Shen has a lot of young people coming to him to find him. I guess he is buying a car. Although his business is not big, he knows cars very well. I joked to him that I might as well pass by me and give him a high salary. His store can be closed, so come and pay me more."
"Is he happy?"
"Just, I can't afford to come here even if I come."
"Will you exchange resources with each other? I mean, he doesn't have a car there, come and ask you to get it, and make a good deal."
"This is very rare. The car is there. I can't see it in his store. I will turn it and come out. I don't need to introduce him. However, he will introduce customers to me to see the car from time to time. If the transaction is completed, he will give him a commission. Our business never loses people. You can also introduce friends. You are different. Two commissions, and the transaction will be paid." The middle-aged man laughed.
"I can't do this, thank you for your kindness." Qin Gang pushed.
"Hey, Lao Shen's death is said to be poisoned by taking mixed drugs. Why do you police care so much about his death? He won't have anything else, right?" the middle-aged man suddenly asked alertly.
Qin Gang smiled: "It's not that we just learned about him in other cases, so routine interviews and inquiries are a must. If you have known him for so long, do you feel that there is anything different from others?"
"Different from others? How do you understand this concept?"
Qin Gang thought for a moment and asked bluntly: "Does he have a tendency to be homosexual?"
"Ah." The middle-aged man opened his mouth wide.
"No, he has a family and a house, a senior and a young man, and he has never revealed it. He often talks about beauties when he is chatting. You won't listen to anyone talking nonsense, I think it's impossible."
Qin Gang said in his heart: It was Shen Zhibin himself who said it.
"Well, that may be because we received the wrong message. What friends do you know about him? We also want to know about them."
While thinking, the middle-aged man revealed the names and contact methods of several people. Qin Gang recorded them one by one and thanked him for leaving.
Qin Gang never believed the gay relationship with Zhang Jiajun mentioned by Shen Zhibin. He always believed that Shen Zhibin was deliberately diverting their attention. There must be other things behind him. These things must make Shen Zhibin feel uneasy. Are these things related to Zhang Jiajun? Qin Gang gradually realized that 80% or more could not get out of contact with Zhang Jiajun.
He admired Li Yi's assumption about Shen Zhibin, an intermediary. Shen Zhibin used homosexuality to guide the police's direction, and the things he covered must be a major event of death when he saw the light.
