Reborn in 08, a heretical cultivator starting a business

Chapter 25 Selling winter melons can earn millions?!

As for those who, like Wang Junshan, purchase 20,000 jin at a time to lower costs and increase profits!

That's even less realistic!
Others don't have warehouses this big, so they wouldn't have anywhere to store 20,000 jin of winter melons.

Winter melons rot easily when exposed to direct sunlight!
But the school's warehouse isn't something you can just take whenever you want.

Wang Junshan's warehouses were all acquired through gambling and deception, making them unique and impossible to replicate.

Moreover, after today, it is likely that nearly half of the students have already bought winter melons. As the market at Binzhou University becomes saturated, sales are bound to plummet!
Wang Junshan has warehouses, customer traffic, and brand recognition, but even he wouldn't dare say he can sell 20,000 jin a day.

Let alone others?
With no brand recognition, no customer traffic, and no warehouse, if you buy 20,000 jin at once, you simply won't be able to sell them in a short time and they'll definitely be stuck with you!

The risk is too great!

Ultimately, most people with brains, after some consideration, gave up.

A few brainless individuals, unwilling to give up, began to push forward.

But when they went to the market to inquire about the price and learned that there were also shipping, loading and unloading costs, they gave up.

Economies of scale are not something you can just achieve at will.

In the afternoon, Jia Zhonghao, who was lying dead in his dormitory, received the news:
"Xu Ao took some people to the market to check out winter melons? He wants to sell winter melons too!"

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that."

“Winter melons are so profitable, if Wang Junshan can sell them, so can I.”

"But if I start selling winter melons, it'll be like competing with Wang Junshan. How will I find out from Wang Junshan who the passenger in Shen Huaijin's seat is?"

"This is not a good situation!"

"Okay, I'll go find Wang Junshan first and tell him about Xu Ao selling winter melons. I'll do him a favor, and maybe I can get information about who that guy is in return!"

"It can be considered a case of diplomacy before resorting to force!"

"If Wang Junshan is sensible, that would be best, and everyone would be happy."

"If Wang Junshan doesn't know what's good for him, I'll immediately launch the winter melon selling project tomorrow and compete head-on with him. I'll make a fortune, and maybe Huaijin will even think more highly of me because of it!"

"And while you're at it, crush Xu Ao!"

"You're already a first-year graduate student, and you still dare to compete with me for a female student? You should take a good look at yourself in the mirror!"

With that thought in mind, Jia Zhonghao limped out of bed, left the dormitory, and headed straight for the warehouse.

They finally arrived at the warehouse, only to find that Wang Junshan was nowhere to be found.

Jia Zhonghao was a bit overwhelmed: "When is your boss coming back?"

"I don't know. They came several times yesterday afternoon, and this morning too. I expect they'll come a few more times this afternoon," Fu Yan said.

"Okay, then I'll wait outside for a bit."

Jia Zhonghao sat down under the shade of a tree outside, waiting patiently for his prey to come to him.

At that moment, Wang Junshan was sitting in a coffee shop.

Across from me was an old acquaintance—Tang Jinghe.

Wang Junshan accepted Tang Jinghe's invitation since he had no classes that afternoon.

In fact, after investigating Wang Junshan's situation yesterday, Tang Jinghe made a decision after thinking about it all night.

He sent a text message to Wang Junshan overnight, but Wang Junshan was already asleep, holding a winter melon.

I only replied to the text message in the morning, and since I had a full morning of classes, we arranged to meet in the afternoon.

"It seems Sister Tang has figured it out?" Wang Junshan was not surprised at all.

Tang Jinghe nodded: "Impressive, truly impressive. They came up with the idea of ​​using winter melon to cool down, perfectly matching the situation in Binzhou University dormitories where there is no air conditioning, no fans, and the power is cut off at night, thus making it a hot seller and generating huge profits."

"In just one and a half days, we sold three truckloads of winter melons, totaling 60,000 jin (30,000 kg), and made a profit of over 100,000 yuan. That's really impressive."

“That shouldn’t be the real reason that moved Sister Tang,” Wang Junshan said with a smile.

This achievement might impress Yu Xingyao, but it wouldn't impress Tang Jinghe!
The two are at different skill levels.

"That's right, but what really makes me want to join is another of your plans: getting students who buy winter melons to join the group-buying QQ group and become your customers!"

"If we only sell winter melons, it's a one-off deal. There are only so many people at Bin University, it's impossible for everyone to buy them, and sales will continue to plummet in the next few days." "If we can eventually sell eight or nine thousand winter melons, the Bin University market will be basically saturated, which is probably just a matter of the day after tomorrow."

"This is based on the premise that there are no fans in the dormitories of Binzhou University, and the power is cut off at night, so everyone is too hot to sleep. Winter melon is a necessity, which is why so many can be sold."

"But by getting them all to join the group-buying QQ group, we can perfectly meet the needs of college students and launch other products."

"For example, watermelon, peaches, grapes, apples, lychees, winter dates, and so on."

"These fruits are very expensive in supermarkets, and even more expensive in your school's fruit supermarket!"

"But through the group buying model, you can start group buying pre-orders, with prices comparable to those in supermarkets outside, and far lower than those in school supermarkets, so you don't have to worry about profits or sales."

"Then we place orders directly from the wholesale market or even from the production area based on the pre-order volume, and then transport them over."

"Buying for a few cents and selling for a few dollars is a huge profit!"

"In this way, even if the winter melon market becomes saturated, your group-buying model can continue to be promoted, relying on the college student group to maintain sufficient profits and development."

Tang Jinghe continued, "We can then extend this to other schools, expand and strengthen our business, and its future is limitless."

Wang Junshan nodded: "Not bad, you saw through two layers of my layout, that's good."

"These are only two layers?" Tang Jinghe was shocked and felt completely uneasy.

I thought about it all night, thinking I had seen through everything, but it turned out I only understood 20%!

That's a bit of a blow!
Just how large is Wang Junshan's plan?

Or is this guy just being mysterious and talking nonsense?
"Mr. Wang, could you please enlighten me on a couple of things?"

Wang Junshan nodded: "Here's a hint for you: winter melon isn't a one-off deal!"

"Winter melon isn't a one-off deal..." Tang Jinghe pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized:

"By the way, it's not just Binzhou University that's experiencing no fans and power outages; other universities in Binhai City are also experiencing the same issues!"

"The Winter Melon Model can be promoted at Binzhou University, and it can also be promoted at other universities."

"You can earn 200,000 yuan at Binzhou University, and you can earn just as much at other schools. Add all that up, and that's a profit of over a million yuan..."

Tang Jinghe was startled.

Wang Junshan waved his hand: "Not only that, the winter melon deal isn't a one-off transaction, there's another layer of meaning to it."

"Winter melon is a consumable, a periodic consumable!"

Tang Jinghe suddenly realized: "That's right, winter melons won't stay fresh forever. In the temperature of Binhai City, even if you put it in a cool and ventilated place, it will only last for half a month, or even less, before it spoils."

"Once the winter melon goes bad, we have to throw it away and buy a new one!"

"Even if the market is saturated at the moment, if this batch of winter melons spoils in ten days or so, there will be a new round of demand."

"Based on a 15-day cycle, with a holiday at the end of the term, it can be repeated three times!"

"One university like Binzhou University can generate not just 200,000, but 600,000 in profit!"

"We can cycle through the school system twice more when school starts in September."

"My God, with just one Binzhou University campus, five rounds of sales, you could make a million yuan selling winter melons!"

"Of course, this is just an ideal situation, but even if there are some differences or competitors emerge, there can still be a profit of 700,000."

"Add in the profits from other schools, and millions in profits won't be a problem!"

"Unthinkable!"

"Are you tempted to leave me behind and do it yourself?" Wang Junshan smiled faintly, seemingly unconcerned.

This is his final test for Tang Jinghe!

This will determine whether Tang Jinghe can be entrusted with important responsibilities, and the extent of her future growth!

Of course, there's also a connection from a past life, so there's always some trust involved.

Otherwise, Wang Junshan wouldn't dare to reveal everything!
