Reborn King of Marketing

"Rice, flour! Zhang Xuebing, why are you spending so much money again?"

When the little girl saw Zhang Xuebing carrying large and small bags, she went up to check and exclaimed every time she saw something.

"White sugar, tea, and fabrics. How much do they cost? You prodigal son, huh, I'll tell my sister to go!"

Zhang Xuebing bought these at the market. He remembered that his sister-in-law liked to drink tea, but the family could not afford it. Occasionally, his sister-in-law would fry jujube leaves instead of tea, which was so sour that it was difficult to drink. He should make some money this time and help his family improve it.

Live life all at once.

Even during the Chinese New Year, the Zhang family had never been so extravagant. The little girl was mumbling, her eyes full of surprise, and she rolled her eyes at Zhang Xuebing.

"This is nothing, look!" Zhang Xuebing took out a large handful of banknotes from his pocket. Although there was only one hundred dollar bill, it was quite shocking to a little girl who had never seen money before.

"Those fish can be sold for so much money, you, you won't rob the road, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'll give you some pocket money here after school starts!" Zhang Xuebing took out the gray-green 'Four Great Men' and patted it in her hand.

"Oh my god, one hundred yuan, am I not dreaming?"

The little girl's hands were shaking as she turned over the hundred-dollar bill and rubbed it. Every New Year, her sister would give her some symbolic New Year's money, which was only eighty cents. This was the first time she had received a hundred yuan in her life.

Zhang Xuebing felt sour in his heart when he saw her excited look. For the wealthy people in the city, this amount of money is at most a meal or even a dish, but these children in the mountains have not even been able to get this kind of money for more than ten years.

More pocket money.

Zhang Xuebing touched the little girl's hair lovingly, then turned around and went out, "Let your sister roll out the dough. Today we will make dumplings and I will buy the meat!"

"Ah, I also want to buy meat..."

June is the hottest time of the year, and the mountain breeze in the evening cannot dissipate the scorching heat.

Butcher Zhang Hu was lying on the bluestone in front of his house, shaking his cattail leaf fan desperately, looking sideways at Zhang Xuebing, without even getting up, and said impatiently, "What's the matter?"

"Of course I'm buying meat, are you here for a blind date?"

"I don't do credit here!" Zhang Hu shook his arm impatiently, turned over with rippling fat, and was too lazy to look at Zhang Xuebing again.

The village is very poor, and very few people can afford meat. His private slaughterhouse mainly targets wealthy people from the surrounding villages.

Frequently interacting with wealthy people, Zhang Hu also believed that his status was superior to others, especially looking down on second-rate paupers like Zhang Xuebing.

Bang, a few clumped banknotes hit Zhang Hu hard on the face. Zhang Xuebing sneered, "Huh, I bought meat with cash, and you still won't sell it?"

"Twenty yuan, did you buy everything?" Zhang Hu counted the money clearly and showed a charming smile.

Lean meat sells for one yuan and two in the city, but meat in the village costs less than one yuan a pound, and twenty yuan can buy more than twenty kilograms. This is no small business.

"Where does all this nonsense come from? Are you going to sell it or not? Hurry up and weigh it. We are waiting to eat it at home!" Zhang Xuebing was impatient!

"Hey, I'm selling it, but..."

"How come you, a grown-up man, speak so effeminately like a girl? What's the point?"

Zhang Hu laughed and said, "It's too hot and there's not much meat left. Why don't you take a look at the ribs? I'll give you 50 cents per pound?"

Zhang Xuebing almost couldn't hold back his laughter. Mountain people in this era like large pieces of fat meat and are not interested in things like ribs. You must know that in later generations, ribs will be much more expensive than pure meat!

And this is serious local pork, pollution-free and pollution-free green food, which is worlds apart from the March Fertilizer from those farms!

However, with the improvement of living standards in the city, the price of ribs has increased in some places. For now, this can be regarded as a small business opportunity and you can make a quick buck!

"Stop talking nonsense, as much meat as there is, the rest is called ribs, hurry up!"

Zhang Hu ran back to the courtyard in a hurry, and after a while of busy work, he came out with a piece of pork belly and two large pieces of ribs wrapped in a straw rope, "A total of nineteen yuan, looking for you..."

Zhang Xuebing was very grand and waved his hand, "Look for whatever you are looking for and just give me eggs for the rest!"

"Hey, okay, okay, I'll give you fifteen more eggs!"

When the eggs were handed over, Zhang Hu seemed hesitant to speak.

"Ask whatever you want to ask!"

Zhang Xuebing was planning to find another way to make money, but he was afraid that he would not take the bait.

Although the mountains are poor, there are treasures everywhere. The pecans, persimmons, hawthorns, and various herbs and local products on the mountains are worth a lot of money in the market.

Many people complain that it’s hard to make money, but that’s no use. As long as you look carefully, there are many ways to make money around you, so don’t worry.

"It's nothing, nothing!" Zhang Hu's face turned red from holding back, and his hands were waving wildly.

Having lived in two lifetimes, Zhang Xuebing’s eyelashes were empty. He had already noticed his little thoughts and said with a smile, “You are asking, why am I willing to spend money to buy meat, right?”

Zhang Hu smiled shyly, "Well, I'm just curious!"

Zhang Xuebing showed a mysterious smile, "I have relatives in the city, and now they specialize in selling mountain goods in the city!"

Zhang Hu's eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands and asked, "Then, can we sell this meat into the city?"

The weather is too hot, and there is no cold chain logistics in this era. Zhang Xuebing is worried that the meat will smell bad when delivered to the city. "If you have a way to keep it fresh, I will take all your meat from now on!"

"This, preservation is a difficult problem, let me think about it!"

If it cannot be kept fresh, this way of making money can only be put on hold for the time being until the weather cools down.

"Okay, when you think of a solution, give me a message!"

"Hey, I must think about it carefully and walk slowly!"

After walking a few steps, Zhang Xuebing suddenly thought that even though the temperature was not low in the mountains this season, how did he keep it fresh? Could it be that his family could afford a refrigerator?

Zhang Xuebing suddenly stopped and asked the question in his heart.

Zhang Hu grinned, "You are from the mountains, how could you not know about this? My method of keeping food fresh at home is very simple, just one word, well!"

This statement awakened Zhang Xuebing. People in the mountains usually hang perishable things on the water in wells. Those who are not afraid of water may even soak them directly in the well water. The sharp well water is the best natural preservation method.

box.

He can use well water for cooling at home, but he can't carry a well on his back on the road!

This incident inspired Zhang Xuebing's reverse thinking. Since fresh meat is prone to spoilage, wouldn't it be enough to just transport the pigs there and slaughter them near the market?

They are killed and sold now, the meat is fresh, and it may become a gimmick.

Zhang Xuebing briefly stated his thoughts. Zhang Hu was happy, but then frowned, "It's a good idea, but we don't have a slaughtering certificate, and we don't have a house in the city. I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle."

!”

"I'll ask my relatives to find a solution for these little things. Just think about whether my solution will work. I'll take care of the rest!"

"Okay, okay, I'll figure it out!" Zhang Hu nodded repeatedly and watched him leave.

As soon as Zhang Xuebing entered his yard, he heard his sister-in-law scolding him, "You little girl is getting more and more useless. Is it easy for us people in the mountains to get some money? You encourage him to spend money randomly to buy this and that. Look at me."

I won’t give you a good beating!”

"I didn't, please forgive me..." Su Xin'er ran out of the house with her head in her arms, closely chasing after her sister-in-law, who was carrying a broomstick.

Zhang Xuebing knew his sister-in-law's temper, and he couldn't persuade her at this moment. He had to use provocation, so he shouted immediately.

"If you beat me, I'll beat you to death, but don't make the first move. The college entrance examination is next year. This one in our family still has hope of getting into college. It's no joke to damage your brain!"

"You two are just a couple of Zaomuqiu, you will kill me if you piss me off!"

The sister-in-law raised the broomstick in her hand high, sighed and slowly lowered it. Suddenly she saw what Zhang Xuebing was carrying, and her hair went crazy. "Zhang Xuebing, you are so old! Why are you still buying meat?"

Now, can you still live this life?"

Seeing that his sister-in-law was about to sacrifice the magic weapon again, Zhang Xuebing hurriedly handed the things in his hand to the little girl, winked at her, and the little girl ran to the kitchen with the meat, and whispered, "Why don't we buy some bones!"

"

Then Zhang Xuebing turned 180 degrees and bent down, and said in a very sincere tone, "Sister-in-law, it's my fault and I shouldn't have spent money to buy things. Just give me a good beating to vent your anger. I will never hide."

!”

Su Wan'er angrily threw the broomstick to the ground, "Hey, I finally got some money, but you two wasted it. I don't care about this family anymore. Who cares about it in the future?"

A sister-in-law is better than a mother. In the past few years since Su Waner was married, she has become a father and a mother, raising two children and becoming an adult. She is tired, not only physically but also mentally. She even swallows more as she talks.

"Sister-in-law, look!"

"Ah, where did you get so much money?" Su Waner looked at the large amount of banknotes in Zhang Xuebing's hand and opened her mouth in surprise.

Zhang Xuebing put all the money into his sister-in-law's hands, "It's all earned from selling fish. Don't you know, when those fish are brought to the market, people go crazy and grab them, as if they don't need money!"

Su Wan'er's thin body trembled, and the hand holding the money started to tremble, "Okay, sister-in-law, keep it for you two. Later..."

Seeing the criss-crossed cracks on her long, white fingers, Zhang Xuebing's heart ached.

These are caused by being covered with ice in winter and water in summer, constantly washing and rinsing, and all kinds of farm work.

Without these hands, Zhang Xuebing and Su Xin'er would have froze to death and starved to death.

Zhang Xuebing endured the sourness in his eyes and said deliberately and grandly.

"Sister-in-law, I gave this money to you. The fishmonger also made a reservation for the next time. You can make as much as you want every day. Our family will never be poor again in the future. The little girl will pay for her college tuition in the future.

Build a new house, buy appliances, and buy you a washing machine so you don’t have to suffer from cold water anymore!”

Su Waner shook her head suddenly, a crystal teardrop slid down the crow's feet at the corner of her eyes, and she almost screamed!

"You are not allowed to go anymore. The mountains behind are dangerous. Many of our elders are trapped in the mountains. You are not allowed to go. It is not impossible for our family to live frugally. With this money, we can pay for the tuition for the next semester. My sister-in-law does not want you to get rich.

Cai, I hope you are safe!"

The mysterious cliffs and deep pools in the back mountain were a worry for my sister-in-law. She couldn't persuade her for a while, so she could only fish secretly for the time being and wait until she changes her career before making plans.

"Okay, it's up to you, let's make dumplings!"

Dang, Dang, Dang, the sound of chopping stuffing came from the kitchen. The little girl was already busy with her work. My sister-in-law stopped Zhang Xuebing and said, "I've been running all day. Go and rest. I'll call you when the dumplings are ready!"

After traveling seventy or eighty miles back and forth, Zhang Xuebing was really tired. He fell on his bed and fell asleep. Half asleep and half awake, he suddenly heard someone yelling and cursing in the yard, as well as the shouts of his sister-in-law and a little girl.

He suddenly jumped out of bed and ran into the courtyard.
