"Shufen, go buy a carp and cook it in a red sauce later," Hao Meng said with a smile.

Wei Shufen was taken aback and asked with a smile, "So happy, did you find some money?"

"Even better than finding money!" Hao Meng shook his head, thinking to himself that he had found a gold mine. The price of the over ten pounds of thousand-year-old agarwood would likely reach tens of millions.

Opening the door, a customer came in, and Wei Shufen walked over with a smile to greet them. Over the past few days, she had basically been able to handle all the customers on her own, not only that, but she did it with ease. Her smile was warm, making people feel comfortable. With a bit of dressing up, she was a very tasteful beauty!

"Are these all old phones?" The customer, who didn't look very old, looked at the repaired phones on display and asked curiously.

"They're all second-hand, but they're almost as good as new!" Wei Shufen said with a smile.

"How much is this one?" The customer picked up an HTX smartphone and played with it while asking.

"That one is 600 yuan, a new one costs over 1200 yuan!"

"It's so new, it doesn't look used at all, is it refurbished?" The customer said while flipping through it.

"It's definitely not refurbished. If you don't believe me, you can find someone who knows and have them check it. If it's a refurbished phone, I'll give you a refund and even make up the 200 yuan difference. To be honest, even the refurbished phones sold online cost around 700 to 800 yuan!" Wei Shufen smiled. This set of sales talk was partly taught by Hao Meng and partly by the young wife from the clothing store next door. She wasn't very knowledgeable about phones!

"Is it under warranty?"

"It's under warranty for seven days. If it breaks within seven days, we'll fix it for you. After seven days, it's not covered." Wei Shufen said. The second-hand phones sold in the store were only under warranty for seven days to ensure they worked properly. There were no after-sales service points here, but once the business grew, these things would change. For now, there was no need to worry!

"Can it be cheaper?" The young man was somewhat hesitant.

"All the phones here are genuine, not high-quality imitations. Most of the models are only available in one unit, and they are limited in quantity. If you put it down now, someone else might buy it, and it will be gone. 600 yuan is the lowest price. You've already tried it out, and you know its condition better than I do. Feel free to play with it more. We have WiFi here, so you can try surfing the internet, downloading games, and so on. Whether you buy it or not is up to you!" Wei Shufen said with a smile.

In the end, the young customer took out the money and bought the phone!

"Xiao Meng, those phones are selling pretty well. The young wife next door, Xiaomei, also bought one. She paid me 500 yuan. There are only a few left. Why don't you order some more?" Wei Shufen came over and sat next to Hao Meng, saying. The Xiaomei she mentioned, Chang Mei, ran a clothing store next door and would often come over to chat.

"Sure!" Hao Meng nodded with a smile. The phone that the young wife from next door bought theoretically shouldn't have been sold for less than 1000 yuan. It was sold online for 1999 yuan and was quite popular, hard to get. It was one of the best in this batch of smartphones. However, he didn't say much, 500 yuan was fine, it was just a matter of profit. He guessed the young wife from next door knew this, but Wei Shufen didn't!

At noon, after school, Yang Xiaoshuang called: "Hey, boss, when are you coming to pick up the payment? Also, we're almost out of stock, you need to bring more. Oh, and a few of my classmates want to buy tablets. Do you have any? If you do, bring a few over!"

It was clear that the little girl was very happy, even changing her address to 'boss'!

"Tablets? I'm not sure if I have any. I'll check later. I'll come over this afternoon and call you when I'm there!" Hao Meng thought for a moment and said.

Yang Xiaoshuang said 'mm' and added, "It's best if you come when I'm at school!" Then she hung up!

Looking at the time, it was just past noon. He got up from the sofa, said goodbye to Wei Shufen, left the store, and went to Lotus Pool Electronic Street!

In three days, Hao Meng estimated that Bai Lan should have collected quite a few old phones. Since she was getting them from merchants, it was faster than collecting them one by one. In the future, once the network was established, most of the old phones on Lotus Pool Electronic Street would be collected by her, and that would be the scale!

"Hao Meng, you're here!"

When Hao Meng went in, only Fei Yu was in Bai Lan's phone store, and there was no sign of Bai Lan. He smiled and handed her the iced drink he bought from the store, asking, "Where's Bai Lan?"

"Bai Lan went home for lunch. It seems there's some aunt trying to set her up with someone!" Fei Yu took the drink and said with a playful smile, "But, Brother Meng, you don't need to worry. It won't work out, no one can take Bai Lan away from you."

"If she's taken, it's none of my business." Hao Meng shook his head with a smile, looking at her panda-like eyes and said, "Fei Yu, if you go home looking like this, won't your mom hit you?"

"No, why would she hit me? My mom even said I look good!" Fei Yu said with a playful smile, not caring at all.

Hao Meng smiled bitterly and nodded, "That's good!"

"Or don't you think I look sexy now?" Fei Yu struck a seductive pose, stuck out her tongue, licked her lips, and gave him a flirtatious look.

"Sexy!" Hao Meng nodded. Everyone has their own way of living and their own preferences. There's no need to impose one's aesthetic standards on others, as it would only make both parties uncomfortable. He asked curiously, "By the way, Bai Lan said you already have a boyfriend? Is he also a 'Shamate' type like you?"

"He? I don't even want to mention him. He's boring. We broke up yesterday, and now I'm single!" Fei Yu said with a playful smile, showing no signs of sadness.

After chatting with Fei Yu for a while, Hao Meng turned to the main topic and asked, "How many old phones have you collected?"

"Old phones? We've already bought a lot, several large boxes. They're all broken, and the good parts have been taken out. What are you going to do with these junk things, Brother Meng?" Fei Yu asked curiously.

Hao Meng smiled and said, "Business secret!"

Fei Yu rolled her eyes.

Together, they moved the old phones out, and there were quite a few. Just the non-smartphones numbered in the thousands, filling five large boxes. There were also a few hundred smartphones, filling two large boxes.

"How much did Bai Lan spend on these phones?" Hao Meng asked with a smile.

"3000 yuan!"

"How much?" Hao Meng was taken aback and repeated.

Fei Yu blinked her panda eyes and said, "3000 yuan. What's the problem? These junk things are everywhere on the electronic street. They were all bought from the store across the street. I heard that apart from the circuit boards, which can be used to extract some metals, they have no other use. Bai Lan was afraid you would lose money, so she didn't buy more. If you hadn't come today, she would have called you!"
