There is a Garbage Recycling Station In My Mind

After Luo Jinyan and Zhang Fengxia left, another teacher from the school came to the repair shop. But Luo Jiu didn't know him. It had been four or five years since he left the No. 8 Middle School. There were still many old teachers in the school, but there were also many new teachers. The school had new teachers coming in every year.

From ten o'clock in the morning, people in the store came in and out intermittently. The business was booming, but it was not bad. At least four or five people who came in would sell a mobile phone on average.

You know, when Luo Jiu was an apprentice, sometimes there were only a dozen or so people who came in the store from morning till night, and that was in a big city like Shencheng.

Now Luo Jiu runs a small maintenance shop outside an ordinary high school in a small county like M County. Before the morning has passed, more than ten mobile phones have been sold. This is where Luo Jiu used to be an apprentice. Things I never thought about.

Not to mention that the profit of Luo Jiu’s business is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The price of mobile phones sold in ordinary physical mobile phone stores is about 70% of the market price. If you buy a mobile phone worth 1,000 yuan, the gross profit is only 300 yuan. Around a buck. Even if other profits such as rebates are counted, after deducting expenses, the profits at hand are not very much.

Like Luo Jiu, even if it is sold at half price, the cost of a mobile phone with a market price of 1,000 yuan will not exceed 200 yuan at most, and the cost of a mobile phone with a market price of 5,000 yuan will not exceed 1,000 yuan.

So, when the school lunch break ended, Luo Jiu sold about 20 more mobile phones, earning more than 30,000 yuan. In half a day, Luo Jiu sold a total of 36 mobile phones, with a cumulative income of 65,000 yuan.

These 36 mobile phones are all sold at half price. Although the advertisement printed by Luo Jiu said that only the first ten people who place an order can enjoy the half price discount, but in the actual operation process, Luo Jiu did not say that ten Those after the first place will be expensive, and all of them will be calculated as half price.

Therefore, although only 65,000 yuan was recorded, the market price of these mobile phones has reached 130,000 yuan. Based on the price of 10% to 15% of the market price of the received mobile phones, the cost of these mobile phones is only 15,000 to 20,000 yuan. Luo Jiu's half-day profit was nearly 50,000 yuan.

It only took Luo Jiu half a day to sell all the 60,000 yuan owed to Ma Zhongbai, and only a little over 1% of the mobile phones purchased last time were sold.

Even if it was sold at today's price all the time, if Luo Jiu sold all the mobile phones in his hand, he would still be able to earn at least 6 million.

Besides, Luo Jiu didn't plan to sell it for a long time at today's price, Luo Jiu will increase the price in a few days, not much, that is, it will be calculated based on 6.10% off the price of the new machine.

To Luo Jiu's surprise, in the afternoon, the number of people who came to the store to look at and buy mobile phones obviously began to increase, and there were also social personnel other than school teachers and students.

In addition to selling a lot of mobile phones, Luo Jiu's business of recycling mobile phones has finally opened. An aunt in a nearby community brought more than a dozen functional phones of the past at once, including straight ones and foldable ones. I don’t know if they were used by her own family before or where she collected them. Luo Jiu bought them all back at a price of eight yuan.

For the batch of functional phones purchased from Ma Zhongbai, Luo Jiu estimated that the price of a functional phone should be more than ten yuan. In the past, Luo Jiu calculated according to 10,000 functional phones per ton, but later Luo Jiu discovered that many of the previous functional phones weighed more than 100 grams, so a ton of mobile phones is definitely not enough for 10,000 mobile phones.

As for exchanging the old for the new, not many people came to exchange with Luo Jiu, which may have something to do with Luo Jiu's pricing rules. For those smartphones that are completely useless, Luo Jiu’s price is generally 50 to 100 yuan a piece, but when it comes to Huayao and Aifang mobile phones, the price will almost double.

Anyway, the price Luo Jiu estimated for these scrap phones is definitely higher than the price of every cell phone recycling shop in the county, but for those smartphones that are barely usable, Luo Jiu’s price is about the same as that of other peers, not much higher. Not much lower.

Because such a barely usable mobile phone, compared to a completely scrapped mobile phone, the difference in profit for Luo Jiu in the end is really too big.

Take Ai Crazy 11 as an example, as long as a mobile phone with a new price of 5,000 can be used normally, the recycling price is around 2,000 yuan, and if it is sold at half price like Luo Jiu, the profit is not much at all.

And for a scrapped love madman, even if you buy it from Ma Zhongbai, the price is only a few hundred yuan. In fact, the purchase price of 15% of the market price is already a matter of how many times the profit for Ma Zhongbai.

Based on Luo Jiu’s experience as an apprentice for more than a year, many of the Huayao and Aifeng mobile phones that were recycled last time were sold at a repair shop for around 100 yuan, and Ma Zhongbai’s profit in the middle is definitely more than double Not only that, this is also the reason why Ma Zhongbai is not afraid that Luo Jiu will waste the 60,000 yuan, because he has already earned as much as several 60,000 yuan.

In fact, Luo Jiu charged Ma Zhongbai such a high price, mainly because he made more money. The other reason is that Luo Jiu lacked the channels that Ma Zhongbai had. Luo Jiu really couldn't get it in a short time.

Now Luo Jiu plans to slowly start the mobile phone recycling business while selling mobile phones in the repair shop. At the same time, Luo Jiu also plans to slowly get in touch with those who are in the second-hand mobile phone business in the county, and buy some of the more popular models as appropriate.

However, this would only be possible if the right opportunity came across. Luo Jiu only knew Lao Si among his colleagues in the county. The other waste recycling people he knew were not specialized in recycling second-hand mobile phones.

When Luo Jiu closed the store in the evening, he had sold more than 80 mobile phones, accumulatively earning 132,000 yuan, and received 23 feature phones, each priced at 5 yuan to 10 yuan. I got a memory card from one of the functional phones, but unfortunately it was only 16G, and it couldn't be sold for a few dollars. Maybe it was given to the students in No. 8 Middle School, and few of them wanted it.

Received 9 smartphones, 6 of which were scrapped, and the price was less than 100 yuan, two of which were seriously damaged, and one that was barely usable. The two severely damaged mobile phones belonged to Huayao, and Luo Jiu paid 200 yuan for one of them.

The one that was barely usable was an iCrazy 9, and the owner wanted to trade in the old one for a new one. In the end, Luo Jiu estimated it at 1,000 yuan, and then bought an iCrazy 11. In addition to selling a mobile phone, Luo Jiu felt that he had lost money after careful calculation, but thinking that he could sell more after repairing, Luo Jiu didn't bother to settle this account.
