1987: Sleepless Tonight

He wants Lu Hao to beg him.

Lu Hao looked at him and smiled, "I don't like your business."

"Don't look down on me? Boss Lu, you think too highly of yourself and too lowly of Hongyuan Oral Liquid." Hong Erquan began to settle accounts, "Do you know how much profit a bottle of Hongyuan Oral Liquid is?"

"The cost of a bottle of oral liquid is only 1 cents, the retail price is 5 yuan, and the ex-factory price is between 1 cents and 5 cents." Hong Erquan said, "Do the math yourself, how much profit is it?"

The ex-factory price is different because it varies from person to person and from unit to unit. Units such as the City Supply and Marketing Cooperative and Jiangcheng Shopping Center are originally related to Hongyuan Beverage Factory, Xu Jihai, and Hong Erquan. They take oral medicine from Hongyuan Beverage Factory The price of the oral solution is 5 cents a bottle, while some relatively small street vendors and dealers with no background have higher ex-factory prices for the oral solution.

The price of oral liquid on the market is 1 yuan, but it is higher in some places, and lower in some places, which is very confusing.

These are very normal phenomena, not just oral liquids, but also other commodities, such as tobacco and alcohol, etc., and the prices are different in different regions.

There are two main reasons. One is transportation costs and labor costs, etc., which are different in each region, resulting in different retail prices. The other is that dealers are not uniform. There are many dealers in a region, which is very confusing. , resulting in inconsistent retail prices, and even the phenomenon of fleeing goods.

Many smart people took advantage of the different retail prices of commodities in different regions to make a difference and made a lot of money.

It's just that this kind of behavior has certain risks, and it is easy to be regarded as speculation.

High risk, high reward.

The most profitable ways are written in the criminal law.

Even if the market is liberalized, it will take ten years to reopen, but many economic policies are still relatively vague, and the degree of implementation is also different.

At present, most people are relatively timid in terms of economics, and they have very little knowledge of finance. Generally speaking, there are relatively few people involved in the business of making price difference.

But because of the small amount, the return is huge.

For example, Yang Wanwan, who dumped treasury bills, is a typical example. Yang Wanwan's original name was Yang Huaiding. He bought low and sold high to earn the difference through the difference in the exchange rate of treasury bills in different places. He earned millions in a year.

That's how he got Yang Wanwan's nickname.

However, the retail price of the product is also a matter for distributors and retailers, and has little to do with the manufacturer. Manufacturers mainly look at the ex-factory price and cost.

宏远口服液成本1毛5，出厂价最低5毛钱，这中间也有3毛5可以赚。

A bottle earns 3 cents and 5 cents, the price difference is higher than the retail price of a single bottle of soda, and the profit is indeed huge.

Two hundred and three percent profit margin!

The production line is not a production line, but a money printing machine.

The oral liquid is not a health product, but a jingling gold coin!

Lu Hao looked at him, "Oral liquids are very profitable, and health care products are very profitable. I know that, but there are some things that I do and don't do. I also know this very well. I don't do anything that is unconscionable."

If you lose your conscience, you can't make money, and you may drag yourself into the water, whoever does it is stupid.

"Lu Hao, at this moment you are still mocking people, thinking you are so noble and conscientious? Your department store business is so good, is it because of some tricks?" Hong Erquan said.

"If this momentum continues, there will be no problem for Hongyuan Oral Liquid to sell over [-] million yuan a year. If your department store doesn't sell oral liquid, it will be your loss!"

"When I make money, I will open a department store next to your Wanjia department store and compete with you for business. Then we will see if you are still so arrogant."

Hong Erquan couldn't understand Lu Hao's face very much.

Still so arrogant at this time.

"That's right, isn't it because you've made some money that you speak so hard? If you don't have money, what are you?" Hong Longfei also said, "The business of your department store is better than other shopping malls, isn't it because Are the things in the store cheaper? The prices of the manufacturers are lowered, so so many people patronize. When our department store opens, we will not lower the prices of the manufacturers, but will lower the prices of the products. Let’s see who can persist more Long."

Not suppressing the price of the manufacturer means winning the favor of the manufacturer, and lowering the price of the product means winning the favor of the customer.

What the father and son said was not a joke, they did think so.

Before, there was no condition to open a department store, neither money nor a suitable address, but now the oral liquid made them see the possibility.

Opening a department store next to Lu Hao's Wanjia Department Store will definitely attract more people and attract customers who originally belonged to Wanjia Department Store to his own store.

Lu Hao looked at the father and son, and had no doubts about their thoughts. If the oral liquid continues in this trend, without any accidents, the father and son can indeed earn a lot of money.

Opening a department store next to Wanjia Department Store, he has a way to deal with it, but it will consume some unnecessary energy that would have been put elsewhere.

"You two are quite shameless, but you forgot that I am Lu Hao." Lu Hao said.

???

Hong Erquan, Hong Longfei and his son were stunned for a moment, why did Lu Hao's words contradict each other?

Including Xu Jihai, Wang Lixing, and Zhang Mingyi were also a little puzzled.

Everyone knows that he is Lu Hao, how could he forget?

"Lu Hao, what do you mean? You take me for a fool. Of course I know you are Lu Hao. Not only do I know, I also know how to write these two words." Hong Longfei said.

"Then you are really amazing." Lu Hao glanced at him.

Without further words, Lu Hao took out a newspaper from his pocket, shook it open, and handed it to Hong Erquan, "Deputy Director Hong, you haven't read the newspaper this morning, have you? I brought you a copy, take a good look." .”

"This method again, what's the use? My son has already cracked it." Hong Erquan said with a smile.

Still, he took the newspaper.

After flipping through, I saw an article jointly published by Tian Yucheng and the Medical Department of Jiangcheng University.

'Miraculous medicine?Hongyuan oral liquid is poison! '

My heart trembled.

Tian Yucheng, a professor at Jiangcheng University, and the Department of Medicine of Jiangcheng University, actually jointly published an article?

The weight of the author of the article is much greater than that of the reporter.

Then look down.

He was even more shocked.

This article is different from the previous articles. It lists various data and relevant regulations.

'...Hongyuan Oral Liquid does not comply with the provisions of GB1916-1980 food additive tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole...'

'...Hongyuan oral liquid does not meet the provisions of GB3862-1983 food additive natural menthol...'

'...Hongyuan oral liquid does not comply with the relevant provisions of the "Food Hygiene Law Phase (Trial)", the details are as follows...'

very detailed.

Hong Erquan broke out in a cold sweat, his face turned pale.

Several other people followed suit.
