Chapter 175: Purchasing Piglets
Fengxian, as one of the richest counties under Jiangcheng, was very famous in the 1990s. Read М
Fengxian's pork is also the most famous, with delicious meat and high quality.
And the local piglets are all lively and energetic. It can be said that breeding is the pillar industry of the people in Fengxian, and most of the people started their businesses by breeding.
Fengxian is a good place surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the water on one side. Compared with Mushan Town, the conditions are much better.
For Li Yi, this is a good place to develop home appliance malls and clothing stores.
In fact, Li Yi did so. In the center of Fengxian County, there is a two-story Jiangnan Beauty Clothing Store.
The housing prices here are not high, and every household has a good income. In Li Yi's view, this is a small investment but a huge market, and it is difficult not to make money.
It is precisely for this reason that Li Yi is still very concerned about the market in Fengxian.
Because of these convenient conditions, the income of Jiangnan Beauty Clothing Store in Fengxian County ranks among the top three among all branches.
Li Yi got out of the car and looked at the Jiangnan Beauty Clothing Store in front of him with a smile on his face.
At present, this clothing store is looked after by local employees in Fengxian County. The store manager is a young man in his early twenties, but he is very energetic.
When Li Yi walked into the store, the young man was cleaning the store.
Although there are several other employees in the store, this young man often does it himself.
The young man noticed that someone came in and just wanted to say welcome, and then he saw Li Yi's smiling face.
"Boss, you're here! Why didn't you tell me in advance? Come in and sit!"
Li Yi smiled and patted the young man's shoulder, and whispered: "Xiaochen, how is the business in the store recently?"
Xiaochen smiled and said: "It's good. Although there is no obvious increase in turnover, it is not losing money. It has been making money!"
Li Yi smiled and nodded, and continued: "I just came to take a look. I have other things to do later!"
"By the way, Xiaochen, your family is from Fengxian County. Do you know the situation of Fuguo Farmers' Market? I want to buy a batch of piglets, feed and so on!"
Xiaochen was stunned and thought for a while After that, he said, "Boss, the Fuguo Farmer's Market is not far from here. Go north for four streets and you can see it when you enter Zhongxing Street. But for piglets, I suggest you don't go to the farmer's market to buy them!"
Li Yi was stunned when he heard this: "Why?"
Xiao Chen answered seriously: "The quality of the piglets here in the Fuguo Farmer's Market is far inferior to the past, and the price is also high, so it's not worth it!"
"Then where should I go if I want to buy piglets?"
"I suggest you go to the livestock trading market. The piglets there are cheap and of good quality!"
Livestock trading market?
I haven't heard of it before. It should have just appeared recently, right?
Li Yi asked again: "How should I get to the livestock trading market?"
Xiao Chen answered again: "Go north from this street and you will arrive at three intersections. It should be crowded now!"
Li Yi nodded, patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder, and then after a few instructions, he turned around and left the clothing store.
Xiaochen's family used to run a clothing store, but the business was not very good and was almost going bankrupt.
It was not until Li Yi came that Xiaochen's family conditions improved a lot, so in Xiaochen's eyes, Li Yi was simply a genius.
He was so young, and he had the same high school education as him, but he had so many truths in his mind.
You can't go wrong with such a boss!
...
Li Yi followed Xiaochen's instructions and drove to three intersections, and indeed saw a large market sign.
But the road ahead was a bit congested, and it was obviously impossible to drive in.
So Li Yi could only park the car at the gate, then opened the door and got out of the car.
This is a livestock trading market, basically some chickens, ducks, pigs, geese and other animals. Seeing so many people in the market, Li Yi was relieved.
At least this market is still operating. If there were no piglets, it would be troublesome.
Li Yi walked towards the market. He had been carefully looking at the livestock in the market. They all looked good. At this time, Li Yi found the piglets.
The owner of the store in Jiangcheng Farmers' Market was named Wei. Li Yi went to the door of the store and asked in a deep voice:
"Boss, how much do you sell these piglets? What's the price?"
Hearing this, the store owner pushed open the door and walked out, smiling and said:
"Two yuan per catty! These pigs start at 20 catties, so don't worry, little boss!"
Li Yi bent down and looked at these piglets, or piglets!
He found that these piglets were all lively and looked very active and full of vitality, not at all like the dead store next door.
And now the weather is not hot, it has been autumn for several months. If the piglets are still lying on the ground and not moving, there is obviously something wrong.
In comparison, the piglets in this shop are quite attractive, although the price is a bit expensive, two yuan per pound, which means the lowest price is 40 yuan per head.
However, for Li Yi at present, it is not a problem.
But for those poor families, 40 yuan is still a bit expensive.
If these piglets are bought back and die in some accident, it will basically cost half a month's salary.
No matter how rich this county is, it is still just a small county. Everyone's monthly salary is around 70 or 80 yuan, which is already good.
Therefore, it can be seen that the sales of these piglets are not very good.
Li Yi smiled, looked at the familiar boss, and asked: "Boss Wei, how many piglets do you have?"
The boss smiled and said: "It depends on how many you want. There are quite a few good piglets this year..."
The boss was halfway through his words when he reacted and asked curiously: "How did you know my last name was Wei?"
Li Yi smiled and said: "Boss, what do you mean? Have you ever opened a store in the farmers' market in the suburbs of Jiangcheng before?"
Boss Wei suddenly realized and said with a smile: "So you are from Jiangcheng. No wonder, come on, come in and sit down!"
Li Yi smiled and nodded, and followed Boss Wei into the store.
This store looks very simple. In fact, apart from the four walls, a table, a small bed, and a stove, there is only one stove left, and the stove is in the back yard.
Li Yi can see that Boss Wei lives a very tight life.
After all, Boss Wei's home should be in the countryside. After all, there are no conditions for breeding piglets in Fengxian County.
