Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 13 Finding Old Friends

Song Xiaogang went to the cabinet and rummaged around, found the somewhat shabby Chinese newspaper and handed it to Wang Ye.

First look at the time on the cover of the first page, this Chinese newspaper is still last month, not the latest issue.

It seems that too many people have read it, and the whole newspaper looks tattered.

But it doesn't matter, Wang Ye didn't want to read the newspaper, he just wanted to find the phone number of an old acquaintance through the newspaper!

Turn directly to the last few pages of the advertisements and examine them carefully one by one.

It's not expensive to advertise in this newspaper, it seems that it costs only five hundred rubles, or about twenty dollars.

And it still advertises you for a week in a row!
It can be said to be cheap, and the price is very high.

Of course, the advertisement above is also very simple. It is a position the size of a small tofu block with a simple line of words on it.

If you want to sell something, or want to hire a translator, or want to apply for a job, just say it in the most concise words.

What Wang Ye was looking for was a phone card seller named Liu Jun!
On the Moscow side, the phone cards used by international students and Chinese businessmen are actually the same as the IP phone cards commonly used in China.

Because I want to communicate with the country, I need to make frequent calls, so I can't make direct international calls, and the cost is too high!

Therefore, some people have come up with this kind of IP phone card, which is used domestically with a dedicated line. The cost is relatively low, and it is very popular among international students and Chinese businessmen.

This calling card is divided into 20 US dollars, 50 US dollars, and 100 US dollars according to the denomination.

Of course, there are also higher denominations, but those are only bought by businessmen, and students naturally don't need to make so many phone calls.

…………

There are not many people selling phone cards in the advertising area, but unfortunately, Wang Ye couldn't find Liu Jun after searching for a long time.

In fact, in a previous life, after he went to school for a while, he found that every time he and his classmates bought a phone card, they had to ask those classmates who worked in the big market to help them. On a whim, he found a Chinese newspaper. , I contacted a phone card seller above, who happened to be Liu Jun.

Originally, this kind of advertising and selling cards can be delivered to your door, but the premise is that you have to buy enough!

If you buy a $[-] and $[-] card, people will definitely not be willing to send it over. Moscow is so big, and it will take a long time to travel.

Unless you buy a card for a few hundred dollars, they will deliver it to your door.

Every time an ordinary student buys a card, it is usually a $[-] or $[-] card, so they cannot enjoy this kind of door-to-door service.

But Wang Ye was different. At that time, he gritted his teeth and took out two thousand dollars, wholesaled more than 100 phone cards, and acted as a "middleman" to earn the difference...

The wholesale price is definitely different from the retail price. He paid [-] US dollars at the time and got a phone card worth [-] US dollars in Liu Jun's hands.

After two or three months of selling, the cards were sold out, and I made a total of more than 300 US dollars.

Because he gave a lot of discounts when selling cards in order to sell them faster.

That was also the first money Wang Ye had earned in his lifetime...

But this time, Wang Ye will naturally not be as petty as in the previous life, he has bigger ambitions!
It's a pity that Wang Ye turned the newspaper several times in a row, but couldn't find any advertisement for "Liu Jun"...

This is normal. He remembered that Liu Jun was only selling phone cards part-time to earn some extra money. Naturally, it was impossible to advertise in newspapers every day.

That might not make enough money for advertising.

Put this matter down first, anyway, I will pay more attention to it later, but I am not in a hurry at this time.

…………

Wang Ye's purchase of a mobile phone was soon known by the same group of students who came over.

In fact, some students originally planned to buy a mobile phone, but they just arrived here and haven't had time to buy it yet.

As a result, Wang Ye didn't say a word, so he "secretly" bought it first, which also caused "dissatisfaction" from several girls.

"Hey, Brother Ye, why did you buy a mobile phone by yourself, without calling us, I also plan to buy it. I don't care, you are going to buy a mobile phone with me tomorrow!"

"That's right, Wang Ye, you're wrong. Everyone is a classmate who came here together. We all know that your Russian is good, but you also have to take into account the fact that our Russian is not good. Tomorrow you will bring Let's go buy a mobile phone together."

"Brother Ye, can you get this phone for $[-]? It's not expensive. I thought about buying it for a while. Since it's not very expensive, I'll buy another one tomorrow."

Several classmates crowded in Wang Ye's dormitory and shouted.

Wang Ye's face was full of helplessness. He did not deliberately hide from his classmates to buy a mobile phone by himself.

He bought a mobile phone because he had something to do and to make money. Thinking that his classmates didn't really need mobile phones for the time being, he didn't ask everyone to come together.

It's fine now, but it's not his...

He waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, this time it's my fault, I forgot to inform everyone. Well, at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, you come to my dormitory, and I'll take you over to buy a mobile phone. The supermarket is not far away, you just need to prepare the money in advance. By the way, there are cheap and expensive mobile phones over there. The cheapest one is about three hundred dollars, and the expensive one may cost thousands of dollars. Everyone Do what you can. I personally recommend not to buy too expensive, a mobile phone is enough to be able to make calls..."

Wang Ye is for everyone's consideration.

Although he is now, he looks similar to everyone, just a big boy who just entered college.

But in fact, he has had social experience for more than [-] years...

Wang Ye knew that it was not easy for the parents of his classmates to make money, including himself, so there was no need to buy those expensive mobile phones for comparison or vanity.

There is no need. Besides, the functions of mobile phones these days are actually very simple, that is, just make a phone call and send a message.

To be honest, it's almost the same in essence.

It’s not that 20 years later, the gap between the high-end, high-end and low-end smartphones will be obvious.

But obviously, not everyone listened to what Wang Ye said, especially those girls...

The next day, when Wang Ye brought a group of people to the supermarket to buy mobile phones, the difference between boys and girls was obvious.

Boys basically pursue cost-effectiveness, and most of them buy relatively cheap mobile phones, and the Nokia 3310 is the first choice.

And girls, without exception, all look down on the Nokia 3310, but choose more expensive and more beautiful mobile phones, almost generally more than [-] US dollars...
