Hong Kong Island Old Events

Chapter 24 Selling Goods

When He Dingxian arrived at the door of the gambling stall, he waved for a rickshaw, handed the key to Ni Kun and said, "Akun, can I trust you just once?"

Ni Kun looked shocked when he heard this, and immediately nodded excitedly: "Brother Xian, I will definitely help you!"

"good!"

He Dingxian has no one around him now. It would be more risky to leave the matter to Qian Weishan, Daji and other uniformed policemen. Cao Mang, who is still struggling at the bottom, may want to be a little wilder. Not only must he borrow any power, but he must also use everyone. .

"Take the key to Miaopu Pier in Jianshanzui. When you see Chao Yiyong's brother, hand the key to him, and then come to Central with a batch of goods to find me."

"I'm going to Central by boat now." This batch of goods is neither illegal nor illegal. Although it is very useful, the economic cost is low. It is not bad to take the risk of using Ni Kun once.

Ni Kun took the key and nodded heavily: "Okay!"

"Just wait at the pier when you get to Central. Someone will pick you up." He Dingxian explained, waved his hand and hailed another rickshaw on the side of the road. When he got on, Ni Kun asked: "Boss, do you have a lot of goods?"

"Ask a few brothers you trust to help." He Dingxian took out ten ten-dollar Hong Kong dollars and handed them to Ni Kun: "Tell them that you still have money after you finish the work."

Ni Kun agreed: "I will keep everything the boss said in mind."

In the evening, Manager Zhang of the Central Theater had finished work and gone home, and was preparing dinner in a rental house near Fortress Hill.

As a native of Shanghai who came to Hong Kong Island ten years ago, Manager Zhang has long been accustomed to life on Hong Kong Island. He finally applied for a job as the theater manager of Shaw Brothers Cinema based on his working experience in the "Metropolitan" theater. He is now My biggest dream is to buy a house on Hong Kong Island.

The current housing prices in the Central District of Hong Kong Island are less than 100 yuan per square foot, and a two-bedroom apartment of 800 square feet is priced at 50,000 yuan. It seems cheap, but with the current income, it is not easy to buy a house on Hong Kong Island.

In particular, in the past two years, another million refugees have poured into Hong Kong Island, further driving up housing prices. It is already foreseeable that housing prices will rise in the future.

Manager Zhang had originally set his sights on a house worth RMB 60,000 in Causeway Bay. Unexpectedly, the landlord temporarily increased the price by RMB 10,000, leaving him short of funds.

The whole family needs to save this 10,000 yuan for at least five years. Will property prices rise again by then? Manager Zhang has no confidence, so he is currently trying to find ways to make money...

At this time, He Dingxian was standing at the door of the room, holding a business card and comparing it to the address in front of him.

In an era when communication was inconvenient, business cards would have their addresses printed on them for easy contact. Home telephones were only provided by big bosses, but ordinary managers did not have them at all.

After a long journey, he took the ferry to North Point, and then took a car to the remote Fortress Hill. He really didn't expect that a theater manager with a monthly income of more than 200 yuan would live in a suburban house, but this made him more confident in the success of the cooperation.

When Zhang Haiyang heard a knock on the door and opened the door, he saw a familiar military uniform again. His eyes were very surprised and he said, "Officer He? I don't have a projector to sell to you."

He Dingxian's smile remained unchanged and he put the business card back into his jacket pocket: "Manager Zhang, I'm here to talk to you about the projector business today, but I'm not looking for you to buy a projector. I want to sell you a batch of projectors."

Zhang Haiyang looked puzzled: "Mr. He, as far as I know, your business in Kowloon is doing well. If you hadn't opened a store in Central, maybe I would be in trouble because of you. Now you want to sell me a batch of projectors?" "

"You're kidding!" He didn't believe businessmen so easily. He Dingxian said without changing his expression: "I have encountered some troubles in my business in Kowloon. Can you please come in and talk to me?"

"Please come in." Zhang Haiyang stepped aside to make room, turned around and shouted to his wife: "Ayuan, a friend is coming to visit. Let's make a cup of hot tea."

As he closed the door, he added, "Sorry, my wife is cooking, and the theater usually gets off work late."

Movies are sold out in regular theaters morning and evening. As a manager, except for special periods such as holidays and popular movie releases, he must be on duty during the day and leave the night work to his subordinates.

He Dingxian entered the room and sat on a chair, took the teacup, and said straight to the point: "My business in Kowloon District was taken aback by a Chinese detective. When he saw that I was a policeman, he didn't reject me, but he wanted me Take yourself out of the dollar store competition.”

"I, an ordinary uniformed police officer, will definitely not be able to compete with Inspector Hua. I plan to close my dollar store and sell the projectors back to you at a discount. One projector costs one thousand and fifteen yuan, and there are sixteen projectors in total."

Zhang Haiyang was not blinded by He Dingxian's tragic experience. It is normal for big fish to eat small fish in Hong Kong Island. It is common for a uniformed policeman to not be able to fight Inspector Hua. Only after fighting can he see a ghost. He just drank a sip of tea and wrinkled Brow asked: "Why are there so many machines?"

He Dingxian shook his head with a wry smile: "A friend from the society came in by mistake. The cost of one machine is 2,500 yuan. Who would have thought that the business would be gone so quickly."

"Aren't you going to sell it to other peers?" Zhang Haiyang asked, but He Dingxian shook his head: "They are bullying others and won't even give out 1,500 yuan."

"How can I save face?" Zhang Haiyang shook his head and asked tentatively: "You also know how prosperous the business of the One Yuan Movie Store is now. If not all the sites in Kowloon are owned, and no one in Central likes to watch old movies, Shao Even the boss wants to get involved."

"Second-hand projectors that no one cared about before are now in short supply. You want me to make money. Do I have to remember you as a favor?"

He Dingxian sighed: "In business, one machine costs 1,500 yuan, and the money and goods are fully paid. What kind of favor do I owe? It's just that the machine is more or less old."

"Is there no big problem?" Zhang Haiyang raised his brows and lowered his tea cup. He Dingxian shook his head: "I can definitely turn on the computer and play pictures. This is not the case with second-hand goods. There are no other big problems. If you have any big problems, come to me!"

Zhang Haiyang probably also understood that it was a batch of goods that were of no use, and that there were no major problems. After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth, slapped his thigh and said, "Where can I pick up the goods?"

If this business is successful enough to raise enough money to buy a house, there are some risks worth taking. What's more, although he grew up in Shanghai, his ancestral home is also Ningbo, otherwise he would not be reused in Shaw Brothers Cinemas.

This year, the head of Shaw Brothers Cinemas has just been elected as the honorary president of the Ningbo Chamber of Commerce. He is closely related to several Ningbo societies in Hong Kong that publish salty and wet pictorials. It can be said that Shaw Brothers does not allow female artists to shoot posters. , all the salty and wet guys in the Ningbo community want to drink from the northwest wind.

Anyway, we collect a batch of second-hand equipment from closed stores and resell them to new stores that are expanding. Even if some of the equipment has problems, nothing will happen...

At least, the brands of Shaw Brothers Cinemas and Ningbo Chamber of Commerce can hold up, and a few hillbillies in Kowloon will have to suffer a loss unless they don't want to come to Shaw Brothers to buy movies in the future.

When He Dingxian met Manager Zhang for the first time, he found out that he was from Ningbo and kept it in his mind. It will be of great use.

At this time, when he saw the fish taking the bait, he became calm and relaxed, and he was even in the mood to calculate the money: "In half an hour, North Point Pier, let's pay first."
