Chapter 26 The Opportunity is Yours!

Although Jiang Tao and Xiao Liu, the three of them, weren't as close as with Wang Lianming.

They were all good friends with decent relationships, occasionally getting together for meals or something.

This time you treat me, next time I'll treat you.

Everyone took turns, and no one talked about who lost out or who gained.

After inviting a few people in, everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very lively.

After a few rounds of drinks, Jiang Tao felt the time was about right, and then said:

"A friend of mine who does fruit wholesale said that in the next few days, the Sugar Tangerines will see a super market trend.

This friend of mine has always had a good eye for market judgment, and is already a small millionaire at a young age.

The reason they told me this is also because they saw I had a tough year, so you could say they pitied me.

I have a lot of confidence in my friend's analysis and am preparing to enter the market and make a move. Brothers, do you want to join?"

"Ah? Sugar Tangerines will see a super market trend?"

"We've been selling Sugar Tangerines every day for the past half month, and haven't heard any rumors."

"Jiang Ge, is this market trend reliable?"

After Xiao Liu and the three of them heard Jiang Tao's words, there were also slight looks of suspicion on their faces.

It's not surprising that they were skeptical.

The main reason is that the three of them, as fruit vendors, hadn't heard any news about this, even though they sold Sugar Tangerines every day.

Jiang Tao, an outsider, was now saying he had learned about a market trend related to Sugar Tangerines.

Isn't this completely upside down!

"If it wasn't reliable, I wouldn't have called everyone over. Since we finally encountered such a market trend, of course, I want to bring everyone along to make money together."

Jiang Tao didn't waste any more words with Xiao Liu and the others. Talking a thousand words is less convincing than showing some actual action.

"Whether you believe it or not, this time I'm planning to invest around 250,000, and I'll go to the fruit wholesale market to stock up tomorrow."

"If you don't want to do it, you can help me sell the tangerines then, and I'll pay you a salary, which will definitely not be less than what you earn now in a day."

Jiang Tao's words stunned Liu Zhiyuan and the other three.

"Invest 250,000 to buy Sugar Tangerines? Jiang Ge, are you serious?"

Liu Zhiyuan stared with his small eyes, his face full of surprise.

250,000 is not a small amount for the few people present who are all from the countryside and are part of the 'North Drifters'.

Daring to take out so much money at once to invest in a project requires even greater courage!

"Yes, isn't the New Year coming soon? Let's do one last push, make some money, and happily go home for the New Year!"

Jiang Tao's expression was calm and composed, and everyone present saw his confidence in his smile.

However, everyone also had doubts in their hearts.

If this investment fails...

This year might not be passable!

Investing in business is not something you can decide on a whim.

After Jiang Tao clarified his firm stance, he didn't try to persuade Liu Zhiyuan and the others, and started inviting everyone to eat and drink.

Whether to do it or not, it was still up to them to decide.

Anyway, the opportunity was given to them, it just depended on whether they could grasp it.

Jiang Tao gave the few people one night to consider and asked them to give a definite answer tomorrow morning.

The dinner party lasted from past 7 PM until past 9 PM before ending.

Liu Zhiyuan and the others went downstairs together after eating and drinking their fill.

Liu Zhiyuan and Shan Yufei both went straight home.

Zhang Chao turned left and right in Chengnan Village, and when he was almost at his own door, he turned into another alley and entered a foot massage shop.

After seeing off Xiao Liu and the others, Jiang Tao video called Xu Li for a while.

Today, her mother-in-law bought Jiang Xue a red dress to wear for the New Year, and the little girl specifically changed into it to show Jiang Tao.

Jiang Xue's figure is like her mother Xu Li's, tall and slender. She's a little glutton but doesn't get fat.

Her facial features resemble Jiang Tao's: large eyes, high nose bridge, oval face, definitely a little beauty.

Wearing a beautiful dress, she was like a little princess walking out of a fairy tale!

"It's probably hard to find a second girl as beautiful as my daughter in the entire universe~"

Jiang Tao was never stingy with praise for his daughter, saying all sorts of complimentary things.

Jiang Xue giggled and said, "Because Daddy is also the most handsome daddy in the entire universe, that's why he could give birth to such a beautiful daughter like me~"

"Hey Jiang Xue, I'm the one who gave birth to you, alright?"

"Daddy also has a big contribution!"

"Who taught you all this!"

The family of three kept chatting and laughing until past 10 PM before ending the video call.

After a simple wash-up, Jiang Tao was still thinking about the intelligence refresh at midnight and wasn't sleepy.

So, he opened the intelligence regarding Sugar Tangerines from today and read it word for word again.

[Today's Intelligence]: You reached a cooperation intention with Yu Dongdong yesterday and obtained relevant intelligence—

Due to meteorological reasons, Sugar Tangerines will usher in a wave of price increases in three days.

The increase will exceed 100%, lasting for one week, and you can appropriately stock up.

...

The intelligence refreshed this time was different from the previous times where there was a certain item in a certain place.

Instead, it was the future price trend of a certain product.

Furthermore, the intelligence also mentioned the start time and end time of this market trend.

Such detailed intelligence was shoved right in his face.

If he still couldn't handle it well, then he would be like Teacher Xiaoyan said, only fit to go home and be a pig.

"Based on a principal of 250,000, the wholesale price for a 10-jin box of large Sugar Tangerines is 35 yuan."

"250,000 can wholesale approximately 7,000 boxes."

"The current market price is 5 yuan per jin. A 100% increase means 10 yuan per jin. At that time, one box can be sold for 100 yuan."

"7,000 boxes is 700,000!"

"Then subtract the 250,000 cost, and there's still 450,000 in net profit!"

"Damn, that much!"

Seeing the result calculated on his phone's calculator, Jiang Tao was startled.

He hadn't calculated it properly before; only after this calculation did he realize how profitable this Sugar Tangerine project was!

This market trend would last for about a week at most, and Jiang Tao also planned to finish the operation within a week.

Even if he gave Xiao Liu and the others some share and some hard work fees, he could still earn at least 350,000 himself!

And that was the net profit after deducting the initial 250,000 principal!

"7,000 boxes of Sugar Tangerines will also need a place to store them!"

"The outdoor temperature is just right now, so there's no need to rent a cold storage. Just find a private courtyard in Chengnan Village."

"A private courtyard here in Chengnan Village costs at most around 2,000 yuan a month in rent, which is more suitable than renting a warehouse."

After calculating the profit from this market trend, Jiang Tao started thinking about a place to store the goods and future sales work.

For this Sugar Tangerine project, entering the market at the right time and getting as much goods as possible is the first step.

Selling the low-priced goods obtained at a high price to realize cash is the most crucial step!

Jiang Tao took out an accounting notebook and a carbon pen from the drawer.

Whatever came to his mind, he wrote it down in the notebook.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen.

Many fleeting thoughts in the mind, if not recorded promptly, might be forgotten the moment you turn around.

He wrote and drew in the notebook for over an hour.

Soon, the time reached midnight, and a new day began.
