Chapter 243 Sales
Unfortunately, the money in Cheng Mu's hands is still far from Thomson's gun, so he can only put it on hold for now.

After Hongmen develops, everyone must be equipped with one.

Cheng Mu and his party went straight to the liquor counter on the second floor. He didn't waste any time and asked to buy fifty gallons of brandy.

As soon as he spoke, most people turned their attention.

Those who hang out here, whether they are sellers or buyers, are basically gang members.

Cheng Mu bought so much high-strength liquor, obviously not for drinking it himself, so the only possibility was to sell it.

And if alcohol is sold in their neighborhood, it will inevitably affect their interests.

So everyone looked at Cheng Mu with unkind eyes.

Cheng Mu, on the other hand, had a stern look on his face. He put a hand on his waist and lifted his shirt, revealing the gun in his waist.

The few teenagers behind them also naturally understood the truth that losing is not losing, and they put their hands on their chests, pretending to be carrying guns with them.

Their actions really shocked some people, and their unkind eyes gradually became less numerous.

In fact, no one dared to do anything in Lucky Charlie's store. Lucky Charlie opened a black market, so he would naturally protect all kinds of transactions in the black market.

If you dare to cause trouble inside, the Lucky Charlie Gang will tie a cement bucket to your feet and throw you into the sea.

As one of the leaders of Niuyoke City, the Lucky Charlie Gang will not tolerate anyone challenging their majesty.

So some people choose to temporarily take refuge in Lucky Charlie's store when they offend someone they can't afford to offend.

The reason why it is temporary is because it will be cleared out after the black market trading ends every night.

As for whether you live or die after leaving the black market, no one cares about you.

Therefore, Cheng Mulu exposed his gun just to act as a deterrent.

And fifty gallons of wine is not enough to make others feel murderous, so Cheng Mu is not too worried about encountering unsightly people after leaving the black market.

But if Cheng Mu dared to take the wine to other people's territory and sell it, a firefight would probably be inevitable.

Generally speaking, in traditional industries, if it is too much, the profit will only be twenty or thirty points, and if it is too little, it will only be a dozen points.

During Prohibition, selling moonshine made profits several times higher!
With such a high profit margin, no gang will give up their territory.

Fortunately, the Grande neighborhood where Cheng Mu was located was too remote, so no other gangs intervened.

.........

After Cheng Mu and his group wrapped fifty gallons of wine in newspapers, each person held two barrels in their hands and left the black market.

After the gun was shown, no one came out from the black market.

On their way back, they stopped by a shop on the roadside and bought hundreds of small plastic bottles. These small bottles would be used to distribute the wine later.

After buying everything he needed, Cheng Mu only had a dozen dollars left, which was enough for a day or two.

But now they have a gold mine in their hands. As long as they dare to sell it, someone will dare to buy it.

Although the prohibition on alcohol was relatively strict, it did not completely restrict alcohol. Ordinary people were also allowed to brew low-alcohol beer or cider at home.

Some wineries have taken a different approach and do not allow the sale of finished wine. So I will directly sell the raw materials for wine making, and then mark it on the instructions:
The following operations are prohibited, otherwise beer may ferment, and our factory is not responsible for any resulting consequences.

Then what follows this statement is the operation process of turning raw materials into beer.However, these are only low-alcohol wines. For the wine mengzi in the beautiful country, drinking this stuff will only intensify their desire for real wine.

Therefore, high-altitude spirits such as brandy have no worries about sales.

.........

After walking for two hours with a lot of things, Cheng Mu and his party returned to the hiding place on Grand Street.

After carrying so many things for so long, the four of them were exhausted, but when they thought that these things in their hands would be exchanged for a lot of green knife music later, they instantly became motivated.

A dozen people quickly filled fifty gallons of brandy into small plastic bottles they bought.

Cheng Mu just took inventory and found that fifty gallons of wine were divided into more than 500 small bottles. Each small bottle contained more than 300 ml of brandy, which was enough for one person to drink.

Regarding the price of each small bottle of wine, Cheng Mu did not intend to set it too high, at cents per bottle.

If all are sold, the price will be around 250 US dollars, which is a considerable profit margin.

As for this neighborhood, they had also investigated it before. Although it was relatively remote and during the Great Depression, the beautiful country had a strong foundation. There were two to three thousand households in this small neighborhood.

Among the two to three thousand households, there are several hundred people who have fairly good jobs.

Their work can bring them about fifteen dollars a week.

There is no hope of saving this little money, so using it to get drunk and escape from life is naturally the best way, so these hundreds of people are their primary target customers.

Among the remaining people, although they don't earn much per day, they still earn about one yuan, which is much better than when Cheng Mu and the others built the railway before.

After all, they are natives, unlike Cheng Mu and others who are migrant workers, and their wages are slightly better.

This group of people are secondary target customers. Later, we can produce some lower-quality and lower-priced drinks to sell to them.

.........

After completing all the preparations, Cheng Mu explained to the people in the abandoned warehouse:
"We will sell these wines door to door later. We will first go to areas with slightly better living conditions and sell them for cents per bottle."

"If someone is looking for trouble, remember to give in first and put your own safety first. We'll talk about the trouble later. Do you hear me?"

"I heard the boss."

Looking at the neat replies in the room, Cheng Mu nodded with satisfaction.

"set off!"

Following the order, the teenagers in the house each took dozens of bottles of wine and poured into the street outside.

Cheng Mu looked at the sun outside. It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon and it was almost time for dinner. It was the golden period for selling wine.

Another easiest time to sell wine is during the holidays.

.........

The sales of these bulk spirits were far easier than Cheng Mu imagined, and the dozens of bottles in Cheng Mu's hands were sold out quickly.

Because they were new faces, many people didn't believe that they were selling high-alcohol wine at first, but after they took a sip, they immediately paid for it.

From the time they left the warehouse to the time all the 500 bottles of wine in the hands of the teenagers were sold out, less than two hours had passed.
