?Chapter 237: Chapter 229: The Storefront House Chapter 237: Chapter 229: The Storefront House Yang Mingchao, reassured by Lu Jingqiu’s words, lost his earlier ambivalence, “The reason I had this idea is because of what a boss, who often travels overseas for imports, said to me. He’s seen a lot overseas and believes that now is the best time to start a business. He noticed that we purchase quite a bit of stock and have the convenience to do so. The only issue is that it takes too long to pick up the goods each time. If we had sales channels and a large customer demand, we could set up a distribution point within our province for wholesale. That’s what he was talking about… uh.”
Yang Mingchao couldn’t remember the term, so Lu Jingqiu quickly reminded him, “Middleman.”
“Right, middleman. I’d get the stock from him and store it here, then find locals to sell it, while I make a profit from the price difference.
But Ah Da felt that the boss was just sweet-talking us into buying more goods. He was afraid we would end up with too much stock, just like what happened to Xia Lin last time, unable to sell it all. Saying that it’s easy to find sellers is a gross oversimplification.
Moreover, Ah Da thought that if we worked with distributors, our profit margins would be too low, so it wouldn’t be worthwhile.”
Lu Jingqiu shook her head, “Second cousin, finding distributors is easy. Nowadays, many families have young adults who can’t find jobs, and some sent-down youth have returned to the city. As long as your price is lower than that of the shops and they can make a profit, you’ll have a large number of people coming to you for stock. Can one person’s sales outdo that of a group? The profit margin may shrink, but the volume sold will be high, and with more sales, you’ll earn more money. There’s no need to worry about that.”
Yang Mingchao said, “I’ll think about it. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll do it myself. As for the truck, the drivers in my unit could help me secure a spot at the northern car factory. I could get a new truck for eight thousand yuan, and that’s something my brother can afford.”
Lu Jingqiu smiled, “Brother, what if I want to join in?”
Yang Mingchao replied, “Of course, you must. After buying the truck, I won’t have much money left for buying goods. Can you put in ten thousand yuan?”
