Qin Guan nodded. Business was good. Several people were standing or squatting on the shelves and on the floor.
The young man was busy counting discs. He had no time to take care of Qin Guan.
Qin Guan had to rely on himself. He lowered his head and picked up the discs on the floor. They were all popular TV series and movies.
"The Village Zombie", "Jing Ke Assassinates the Emperor of Qin" and "Endless" were movies.
"Pet Love", "Redress of Injustice" and "The Witch with White Hair" were TV series. Aiya, they're all things I've seen in the past. How nostalgic.
Qin Guan picked up some TV series and put them in a red plastic bag. Then he turned to the shelf on the left and picked up some games.
"Age of Empires", "Railway Tycoon 2", "The Legend of Taroko 3" … There were a lot of games.
Qin Guan picked up a few more and threw them into the plastic bag. Liu Xiaoyang would be very happy if he gave them to him.
Finally, Qin Guan went to the shelf on the right and picked up the "Dragon Financial Software". There were exactly 10 discs, no more, no less.
Qin Guan handed the plastic bag to the young man, looked around and asked in a low voice, "Hey, buddy, where are the discs? “
The young man raised his head and gave Qin Guan a hint with his eyes. Then he looked around and pulled Qin Guan to the corner of the room.
There was a huge travel bag there, probably to prevent any inspections, so it would be easier to carry it and escape. All the little discs were placed there.
The young man rubbed his hands and asked wretchedly, "Who do you want?"
Qin Guan was shocked. "Who do you have?" he asked stupidly.
The young man realized that he was a rookie, so he shared with Qin Guan proudly, "Shiroishi, Truth and Kuramae are all old acquaintances. Youmi Fuuma, Momo Suzuki, Tomoki Tsukamoto and Nagase are all rookies. Who do you want?" “
Qin Guan was confused. He didn't know these people at all, so he asked modestly, "What do you think?" How much respect do you have to show them that you're using them?
The young man raised his head proudly and patted his chest. "Okay! I'll pick some for you. How many do you want? "
Qin Guan made a gesture of "two". "Let's test the waters first. Come back when you're ready. “
The young man patted Qin Guan on the shoulder. "Have you ever bought a film with the title '300 Wild Wars' on it, only to find it's' Animal World 'on the back of the box? That kind of person is too f * cked up. We are regular merchants and we are honest. We don't do such immoral things. "
"Since you trust me, I'll help you choose. They're definitely top-notch. If you like them, you can come back and do business with them."
Qin Guan nodded. The young man took out two discs from his bag, covered them with white paper, and threw them into Qin Guan's plastic bag. Qin Guan took out 60 yuan and handed it to the young man.
It was no wonder that the piracy industry was so developed. In 1999, before the internet was widely available, this was much cheaper than games that cost a few hundred yuan or office software that cost a few thousand yuan.
When Qin Guan paid the bill, the young man put a 12 on the column where Sun Erhua had signed. The deal was done.
Qin Guan walked out of the two-story building happily. Then he remembered why he had come to Zhongguancun that day.
Therefore, he automatically fell into a state of confusion. Should I buy this RAM or not?
Fortune comes from risk. Someone once said that when the profit exceeded 100%, some people would dare to commit murder and arson, taking the risk out of desperation. Moreover, this was a blatant 300% profit.
Thinking of this, Qin Guan walked quickly to the bank beside Zhongguancun Building and took out 8,000 yuan.
This was more than half of Qin Guan's income from his part-time job. Taking a deep breath, Qin Guan put the brown paper bag into the plastic bag he was carrying. Following the flow of customers, he pushed open the door and entered Zhongguancun Building.
He didn't stop. He took the escalator straight to the third floor of the shopping mall.
There were many counters there, and each counter was a small shop. Many small bosses had started their own business by renting a counter with two people.
There were a lot of customers in the building, and there were many individual merchants. Qin Guan didn't stand out among them.
He walked to the innermost counter on the third floor. There was a sign on the back of the small shop: Selling all kinds of motherboards and memory chips.
Qin Guan knocked on the counter and asked, "Boss, how much is a 128M memory chip?" “
The boss behind the counter looked up at Qin Guan and answered indifferently, "85 yuan for one."
Qin Guan wasn't satisfied with the price. He shook his head and said, "I'm not an individual customer. I know the market here. I'll buy 20 at 79 yuan. Deal?"
The boss took his words seriously. Wow, this young man is quite knowledgeable, but he still wouldn't give in.
The boss thought for a while and shook his head. "No, today's price is 80 yuan. I can't go any lower."
Qin Guan looked around and told the boss in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, brother, I don't think you can get the amount I want. That's why I want 20."
The boss cheered up. He leaned over and asked in a low voice, "How many do you want? Tell me the number. I can get the goods from you."
Qin Guan made a gesture of "one" carefully. "100. Is that okay?"
The boss patted the counter and said, "Deal." Then he took a folding chair from behind the counter and handed it to Qin Guan. "Take a seat. I'll check the goods first."
Qin Guan put the chair down and went to the rest area to buy a bottle of water. When he came back, he saw the boss rummaging through the cabinet and pulling out a bag of components.
By the time Qin Guan drank the water, the boss had counted the number of memory chips. There were still 67 to go. The boss had to call Qin Guan and say, "Hey, brother, could you help me look at the counter first?"
Then he bent down and crawled out of the small door, wandering around Zhongguancun.
The boss ran to the shop in front of him that had installed the ATM. After a while, the shop assistant took out two memory sticks from under the counter.
The boss took the goods and went to the next store. When Qin Guan finished half a bottle of water, the boss came back with a bag of memory chips in his hands.
He put the memory chips on the counter and counted them one by one. "98, 99,100. Not a single one is missing. "
Qin Guan told the boss frankly, "How can they tell that they're new and unsealed if I don't open the packaging? How can I be sure that they are not damaged? “
The boss smiled at Qin Guan again. "You're really interesting, brother. You bought so many memory chips. Most people buy them to buy them or sell them to others. Do you want to keep them at home?" “
"Even if you plan to sell it later, as long as you don't open the packaging, it's fine. If you open the memory chips and see that there are no scratches on the motherboard, they will know that they are new. "
"Old people have good eyesight. Don't worry. "
Qin Guan was relieved. He opened the paper bag and took out a note. Then he handed the rest of the money to the man. "Boss, please count 7,900."
The boss took the money with a smile and counted it. Then he went back to the counter, pulled out the money detector in the corner and counted it again.
Then he stood up and said to Qin Guan, "The money is correct. You can take the memory chips. If you need anything else, just call me." He took out a business card from the counter and handed it to Qin Guan.
Qin Guan picked up the bag and the business card. He nodded and left Zhongguancun.
