Zhengyangmen: Don’t date Su Meng
Chapter 17 The first order is completed
Riding the [old car] alone and listening to the constant creaking sounds, Han Chunming had only one thought in his mind - just wait, I'll refurbish you when I get back!
He was very familiar with this sound.
Whenever night falls, I put on headphones and cover myself with a quilt. The headphones are filled with the sounds of succession and harmony, and then the bed wails under the weight, unable to bear it any longer. This is the sound!
"Tsk, this is a past that is too painful to recall!"
Han Chunming smacked his lips twice, without any nostalgia.
Finding an empty corner, he called out the system and refurbished all the disassembled parts one by one. Except for the necessary parts which were [90% new], the rest were all [80% new]. The total cost was one hundred and five dollars and eighty-four cents.
They didn't do anything today, but in just one hour, they spent nearly two hundred dollars. If this gets out, they'll definitely be called a spendthrift!
Come home full!
Li Chengtao looked at the shiny metallic parts on the tricycle, and only his thumbs up could express his inner shock.
"Chun...Ming, you are amazing! How did you get such strong connections? How about we just trade bicycle parts?"
"go."
Han Chunming simply waved his hand and told him to go away.
How much are bicycle parts worth? If they were sold on a large scale, they would be caught without any negotiation and would just sell the bicycle insurance.
Now that we have the parts, the frame and the tires, we can assemble the bicycle.
If the current [28-inch bicycle] is broken down, it can be divided into more than 200, more than 1,000 parts, and 22 parts, such as: frame parts, handlebar parts, front axle parts, brake parts, etc.
For example, the frame is the frame of the bicycle, which is also the main body of the bicycle. The rest of the parts are directly or indirectly installed on it. In addition to considering the weight of the driver and the load, the influence of different road conditions must also be considered, so the most important thing about the frame is its strength and hardness.
This is just the frame part, I won't go into details about the rest.
Why does he understand?
Haha, don’t ask. If you ask, it’s because I have a natural talent. You will understand it at a glance!
Han Chunming smiled confidently at Li Chengtao and began to assemble the bicycle. He was skilled and handled every detail just right.
He didn't even need Li Chengtao's help. He was busy jumping up and down by himself, having a lot of fun.
Not long after, a brand new bicycle appeared in front of the two.
Li Chengtao widened his eyes and stroked the car in disbelief, his eyes full of shock.
In order to verify whether the performance of the car is good, Han Chunming asked him to ride it for a while to feel it, so that he could make fine adjustments if there were any problems.
After a while, Li Chengtao returned on his bicycle.
"Chun...Ming, this skill is amazing! We will definitely make a lot of money!" Li Chengtao shouted excitedly.
"How is it? Is there any problem?" Han Chunming asked.
This is indeed the first bicycle he has saved up for, so it is normal for him to be unconfident.
"No...no problem. If there is a problem, it's that the brakes...are too tight and it's easy to bump into your head." Li Chengtao stroked the smooth beam, quite reluctant to let it go.
"Hey, it's a small problem, I can just fix it."
Han Chunming picked up a screwdriver, loosened the brake a little, tried it again, and it was perfect.
With experience, Han Chunming's speed was obviously faster. Within an hour, three brand new bicycles were placed in front of the two men.
"Chun...Ming, this brand new one is not much different from the one you buy at the department store. Should we sell it at a higher price?"
Li Chengtao bought his current bicycle for RMB 140 from a department store, so he spent quite a bit of money.
He Yuzhu shook his head and said directly: "These two 90% new ones are 80 yuan, and this one is 100 yuan. We don't have time to find a buyer we like, so it will be a waste of money.
Our principle is: get out quickly.
As long as someone offers the right price, just sell it directly, no bargaining, understand?"
Li Chengtao nodded, touched the new bicycle and didn't want to let go. He fiddled with the bell, squeezed the brake, and the three words "I want" were written on his face.
Han Chunming looked at him with a gleam of insight in his eyes.
Noticing the other party's continuous small movements, he understood his intention in his heart. A smile quietly climbed up the corners of Han Chunming's mouth. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he waved his hand and said in a relaxed tone: "If you like it, it's yours. The money will be deducted from the profit from selling the car."
At this moment, Han Chunming's expression seemed casual and natural, as if this was just a trivial matter.
It's a good thing to have principles, but it's inhumane to insist on principles in everything.
"Hey!" Li Chengtao nodded immediately and agreed loudly, then pushed the car to a shady place, as if he was afraid that it would be damaged by the sun.
Everyone has this process. After getting a new item, they take great care of it and are extremely careful, fearing that they will get it dirty with just one breath. But after a long time, they don't think a few scratches from the key are a big deal, but instead find it an eyesore. Li Chengtao is a typical example of this person.
"Then what should I do with this one? Sell it?"
Han Chunming looked at the bicycle, shook his head, and said gently: "Your bicycle is not in good condition and can't be sold for much money. I will dismantle it later, refurbish the parts, and put it among other bicycles. No one will be able to tell it is a bicycle."
Listening to Han Chunming's speech that sounded like a profiteer, Li Chengtao nodded in agreement.
"I'll listen to you."
"It's still early. Let's go and sell these two bicycles first."
The two men climbed onto the bike. Needless to say, this 90% new bike was much better to ride than Li Chengtao's old one.
Where is the strong?
Nonsense, strong is strong, why ask so many questions!
As the first stop, the two naturally chose the bicycle shop they had visited in the morning. The master was repairing a tire. Han Chunming asked Li Chengtao to stay at a distance, and he went forward alone.
"Master, I've pushed the bicycle over for you. Please take a look. How much do you want?"
Han Chunming gently plucked the bell, making a clear and pleasant sound.
The master raised his head when he heard the voice, looked the bicycle up and down carefully several times, a flattering smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Didn't we agree on it? Seventy!" There was a hint of shrewdness in the master's eyes, as if he was calculating something.
Han Chunming looked at the master expressionlessly without saying a word, and prepared to push the cart and leave.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't. Let me add another ten dollars, and that's it!" The master threw down the tire and went straight to stop the man.
"That's pretty much it."
Han Chunming dodged a step and didn't let his master's water-stained hands touch him.
"Han boy, this car is not stolen, right?" The master looked at him with suspicion.
"Don't worry about that. I don't know how to do this. I saved these things myself. If I wasn't afraid of others finding out, I wouldn't sell them to you." Han Chunming seemed a little unhappy and complained that the price was too low.
"Okay, I'm relieved now. If the news leaks out from you, neither of us will be in trouble."
"Then you have to keep it a secret for me!"
"Nonsense, I'm afraid that others don't know that I'm speculating, so let's just keep it to ourselves."
The two reached a consensus after a few words. While the master was paying, Han Chunming asked, "Master, how much do you want to sell my car for?"
The master didn't say anything. He gave him the money and pushed the bicycle in. He looked like he was just about to tell Han Chunming directly that he had made a fortune.
"Black heart!"
Han Chunming put the money in his pocket and met Li Chengtao. The first thing he said was: "It would be better if we could sell it to people who want to buy bicycles in the future. The people in these repair shops are too shady. We lose twenty dollars for each bicycle."
What he said was true, but there were only two of them, so how could they happen to meet someone who wanted to buy a bicycle?
Even if you come across this, when people see you selling bicycles like this, they will start to wonder if the bicycle is clean or stolen, and they won’t dare to buy it.
This is a dead end.
"Forget it, let them make the money. As long as we sell more, their prices will be lowered." Han Chunming gritted his teeth as he spoke, wishing he could tear these unscrupulous vendors to pieces.
"Chunming, then... why don't we just sell this car as well?" Li Chengtao wondered.
"This is the second thing I want to tell you. Don't sell the bicycle in the same place. Even if you do, wait two days. Otherwise, someone with ulterior motives will notice it and something might happen to us. You have to decide the right time.
If you feel there is something wrong, then go to another store. There are so many second-hand bicycle shops in the city, enough for us to sell for a while."
After that, Han Chunming gave a few more instructions, and the two of them hurried to the next shop. Yi Bashier readily sold his bicycle. It was almost noon, and the two of them decided to splurge. They bought a pound of braised pig's head, a roast duck, and two bottles of Erguotou, and returned to the courtyard to celebrate the harvest of today's opening.
"You continue to collect broken bicycles in the afternoon, and I will continue to save them here. Then we will sell the bicycles in the evening and then we will count the harvest together." Han Chunming rocked in his chair and enjoyed the delicious roast duck.
This was the first roast duck he had eaten after traveling through time, and it was worth celebrating that he had made it with his own hands.
Li Chengtao naturally had no problem with it, and the two of them clinked bottles together, eating meat and drinking wine with big mouthfuls, this was real enjoyment!
They still had to work in the afternoon, so they only drank half a bottle and took a nap on the wooden bed. They woke up at around three o'clock and split into two groups again. Li Chengtao was in high spirits and brought back three carts of broken bicycles in the afternoon.
Han Chunming lived up to expectations and collected four more bicycles, three of which were [80% new] and one was [90% new].
After repeated confirmation, it was found that bicycles that were 80% new were the most cost-effective, so they became Han Chunming's main target.
"Let's go sell the car."
This time, Li Chengtao rode a tricycle with three almost new bicycles on it, and Han Chunming rode one. The two of them deliberately found a second-hand bicycle shop that was relatively far away and sold two bicycles at once, and then went to two more shops and successfully sold four bicycles.
收获266元RMB。(62+60+66+78)
At night, in the courtyard, Han Chunming began to count their haul.
He raised the price of refurbished parts by 50%, and then deducted the money Li Chengtao earned from collecting the broken bicycles, as well as other miscellaneous expenses, such as the cost of lunch.
Net profit on the last day: 208.7 yuan!
