Chapter 16 Running a Fruit Shop

The advertising is almost done.

Du Le took the time to place fifty boxes of oranges neatly in the vacant room behind the shop. The fruit shop is not large, and the vacant room behind is less than 10 square meters. Obviously, most of the fruits in the fruit shop are placed in

There may be another fruit warehouse in the front shop, but Du Le has not asked the original owner of the fruit shop, so he naturally doesn't know.

Fifty boxes of oranges almost filled the empty room at the back, and there was almost no place to stay. After Zhao Quan's family arrived, they also sighed secretly when they saw this scene. The whole Zhao family went deeper, even though they had already witnessed the master's miracles.

, it is inevitable to still be amazed.

Seeing them, Du Le immediately breathed a sigh of relief and immediately arranged for them to stay temporarily in the fruit shop. Although the shop is not suitable for five people, there are other places to live for the time being, so he can only live there reluctantly. Zhao

Quan's mother was very grateful. Although the shop was small, it was much better than sleeping on the street. And at night, when the shop door was closed, the front shop could still be crowded.

Now in Jinyang City, except for the area near the palace and Zhuque Street where the ministers live, the streets are full of refugees. It is good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

Because the refugees in Jinyang City were all Chu people, the Chu royal family was unable to drive away the refugees to avoid causing a civil unrest, but they also had no way to make more appropriate arrangements for the sudden arrival of the people.

Du Le is not from the Chu country, and has no intuitive feeling about the refugee flow. He always feels that it has nothing to do with him, and it is impossible to walk through the whole city in a short time. However, he can make Zhao Quan express his gratitude and serve him well and sell oranges.

Du Le was already satisfied.

Business is all about seizing opportunities. Therefore, as soon as Zhao Quan arrived, Du Le immediately announced his appointment as the manager of the fruit shop, and all sales matters of the fruit shop were handed over to Zhao Quan.

Although Du Le had already made it clear that Zhao Quan wanted to take care of the fruit shop, Zhao Quan was still a little frightened. He did not expect that the owner would have such an important responsibility for him. Zhao Quan wanted to refuse, but Du Le would not allow him to refuse.

In the end, Zhao Quan could only accept it. Du Le didn't need any business wizards now. He just needed someone to help him sell things and make money. He didn't need to purchase the goods. If he didn't know how to sell things, that would be ridiculous.

After appointing Zhao Quan, Du Le also invited Zhao and Zhao Quan's wife to help Zhao Quan sell oranges together. He also promised that 10% of the income from selling oranges would be given to their family as a "reward".

At this time, Zhao Quan's family was really grateful, and Mrs. Zhao wanted to kneel down and thank her. Du Le quickly stopped her. After appeasing the old man, he went on to explain his sales plan.

One gold coin costs three oranges, and one orange costs five gold coins each.

Zhao Quan was a little puzzled. He thought that the current oranges could be sold for one gold coin. Du Le didn't bother to explain to him. He couldn't say that he still had a lot of oranges. It would be difficult to sell more if the price was high.

In Du Le's opinion, oranges should be regarded as relatively valuable agricultural products in Chu State. The output is small, the price is high, and the natural consumer group is not large. It is difficult to sell too many oranges at once, and it is more likely to cause prices to drop. Take the initiative first.

If you lower the price a little, you might be able to gain the reputation of a good businessman and be able to make small profits but quick turnover. However, obviously one gold coin and three oranges do not count.

What about small profits but quick turnover? Du Le asked Zhao Quan that oranges are actually not very valuable in the countryside. They can only be sold more easily if they are transported to the city. However, it has always been inconvenient to transport large quantities, and they are often sold nearby. Jinyang City

There are no fruit trees nearby, and it is the first-class capital of the Chu Kingdom. It has a lot of people and a lot of money. Coupled with the national crisis, this may be the reason why the fruits in Jinyang City are relatively expensive.

There are advantages to being the master. If you don’t explain, the people below will not ask more questions, let alone doubtful expressions. Du Le plans to sell only a hundred boxes today to test the market’s reaction. Du Le does not dare to sell hundreds of boxes.

It's one thing to take out all the oranges and have no room to put them, but it's not good to be remembered by others. Each of these oranges is like a yellow gold coin. It's good to be able to make money in a low-key manner and prevent large-scale losses.

The long-term way to do business.

The fruit shop was not big, and Du Le did not arrange many things. He could just explain it in a few words. What surprised Du Le was that he had just made a lot of rumors through the reputation he had accumulated through the original fruit shop.

The servants of a wealthy family were waiting at the door of the store, waiting for fresh fruits to be put on the table.

As soon as the fresh oranges were put on display, they were immediately snatched up by the crowds of people. The sales situation in the market can only be described as hot.

Du Le not only muttered secretly in his heart, have these people not eaten oranges for decades?

The fact is that since the Chu Kingdom was attacked, the dignitaries in the capital have not tasted fresh fruits for a long time. Even if there are fruits, they are only expensive, but they can never eat fresh fruits.

Previously, the two boxes of fruit sold by the couple in the fruit shop almost exploded the fruit consumption market. The fresh oranges were bought by several large households and sent as gifts to ministers' mansions and even the palace.

There were waves of envy and salivation.

One gold coin and three oranges, in the eyes of the dignitaries in Jinyang City, this price is not expensive at all. If you don't buy it quickly, you will have none. You know, the armies of Qi and Jin are about to fight.

Come here, it will be harder to buy fresh fruits then, so you might as well enjoy them beforehand.

What surprised Du Le was that the upper class of Chu State did not seem to be worried about the country being destroyed, only the people were panicked. Maybe the Emperor of Chu State had other plans, which Du Le could not control.

Du Le had no time to think about those national events. The sales of oranges made his heart beat fast. Finally, in less than an hour, most of the oranges were sold out.

After harvesting piles of gold coins, Du Le roughly counted, and there must be at least a thousand one-yuan gold coins. Du Le put most of the gold coins into the space, and then looked at the Zhao Quan family who were busy selling oranges in the shop, and felt a little sad.

I feel uncomfortable, but also a little confused. It’s time to go home, Du Le thought to himself.

The buffering of the positioning teleporter has ended long ago, but Du Le has not started the transmission. When Du Le checked the status of the teleporter again, he had a small surprise, that is, the energy of the teleporter was fully charged again.

Transfer energy.

The recharging speed of this world is much faster. The advantage of this is that Du Le does not have to wait for 24 hours to be teleported on the earth. He can stay on the earth for a buffer of six hours and then teleport back here to recharge. In this way

If so, Du Le would have much greater freedom of movement on both sides.

Du Le called Zhao Quan into the room behind the shop and bluntly said that he would be away for a while and would come back tomorrow at the earliest. He asked him to register all the customers who needed fruit and take a good look at the fruit shop. Before leaving, Du Le thought

I thought, in the end, I would leave fifty more boxes of fruit for Zhao Quan to sell slowly.

After the explanation, Du Le did not start the teleportation immediately. Instead, he bought two sets of gowns from a clothing store on the street and put them into the space. Because of the embarrassing problems that would arise during teleportation, Du Le did not want to encounter them again. Returning to Earth,

If you are still naked, it will be too ugly and it will easily attract the police. As for the dead people in the alleys, no one cares at all. Every day in Jinyang City, refugees lose their lives due to hunger and cold.

Finding a deserted corner, Du Le started the positioning transmitter, selected the temporary coordinates created when he came, and confirmed the transmission.
