Chapter 4517 Small Profiteers
The cart is a good thing. Many large items are left in the garbage mountain and no one picks them up. It’s not because the large item is worthless, but because the head is too big and also too heavy. They, the scavengers, can’t move it at all. .
And even if it is moved by more people, the road between these garbage mountains is not easy. It is not easy to move a large item located deep in the garbage mountain to the checkpoint for money. easy thing.
Under this premise, it is not that the waste pickers working here have not thought of picking up the waste by themselves and getting a cart out.
In fact, many scavengers have tried and failed.
The structure of a scooter cannot be said to be very complicated, what is important is 'precision', every part must fit together, and the wheels must be smooth.
Otherwise, it is just a trivial matter to pull it hard, and I am afraid that it will not be able to pull at all, or the car will overturn if it is pulled twice.
The craftsmen who make carts in the city have the tools and skills to have the 'precision'.
How can scavengers do it?
After all, if they have that kind of craftsmanship, why do they still need to come here to pick up junk? Go outside to do some handicraft work, isn't life more comfortable than here?
The reason why Ye Qingxuan and the others were able to make it was because of Luo Ji. Whose 'precision' can compare with Luo Ji?
After being unable to get it out by themselves, it's not that the scavengers didn't want to go to the city to buy it.
But there is only one problem with buying in the city, and that is expensive!
For them, this thing is not cheap, and the terrain on the side of the garbage mountain is special, so the general-purpose scooter is useless here, and they have to customize the size, which makes the price even higher up.
Tell me, a group of people who pick up junk in the garbage mountain earn a little money every day, can make ends meet, and have a few coins left in their pockets, all thanks to the "abundant resources" in the garbage mountain.
Under this premise, you have to scrape together a considerable amount of money for them to buy a scooter?
If you are not careful, you may not even be able to afford food. Who can easily make up your mind?
But Ye Qingxuan and his scooter are different.
Their scooters were originally built with the environment on the side of the garbage mountain in mind, so there is no such thing as a custom-made one.
Under this premise, this scooter is remade from waste products, so it should be cheaper than outside.
Now hearing Lao Heizi's asking price, Ye Qingxuan smiled and made a gesture.
Old Heizi undoubtedly knew the price of a scooter in the city. Of course, Ye Qingxuan also knew it, so the price she quoted was only half of the price of a scooter in the city.
To be honest, the price of this 'garbage truck' is still a bit expensive in Old Heizi's opinion.
But for this price, Ye Qingxuan was confident.
Not because of anything else, but because of this period of time, Ye Qingxuan has already inquired about the 'carriage' from inside to outside.
It is no exaggeration to say that there are only two ways for these scavengers to get a cart right now.
Either go to the city and buy a special scooter for a price far higher than that of ordinary scooter, or buy one from her for half the price of an ordinary scooter.
Old Heizi is undoubtedly very clear about the things here.
Now in this garbage mountain, there are fewer and fewer small items that can be easily carried. If this continues, everyone's income will become less and less.
But the quantity of large pieces is quite considerable. If they can get a cart first and start moving large pieces, they can make more money.
Thinking of this, Old Heizi gritted his teeth...
"Little Hualian, you fix it for me first, I need some time to save money."
"Okay, I'll help you get it later!"
Looking at Ye Qingxuan's smiling appearance of a profiteer, Old Heizi suddenly felt that he had really taken the wrong nickname back then, it shouldn't be called 'Little Pretty Face', but 'Little Profiteer'!
"But I'm still curious. How did you get this scooter? With this technology, wouldn't it be good to have a job in the city?"
After the business was settled, Old Heizi couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he couldn't help asking.
For this, Ye Qingxuan gave him a blank look.
"We're newcomers, we have to go step by step, don't we?"
"Too."
Old Heizi nodded, accepting Ye Qingxuan's statement.
In any case, they first sold a set of tools to Lao Heizi and the others. This time, it can be said that Ye Qingxuan and the others made a fortune.
Afterwards, looking at the metal that Ye Qingxuan and the others pulled out one after another, the staff at the checkpoint were all dumbfounded.
The co-author of this "garbage group" has not opened for three years, but it has been open for three years?
Of course, this is definitely an exaggeration, but the feeling it brings to them is roughly the same.
During the period, they even suspected that Ye Qingxuan and the others might have done some "burning, killing and looting" activities.
In fact, similar things happen in this garbage mountain.
This is also one of the main reasons why scavengers tend to be more inclined to act in groups. There are many people and it is not easy to be targeted.
But after thinking about it, they basically don't care about these things, and they have nothing to lose anyway.
After getting this big deal from Old Heizi and the others, the pockets of Ye Qingxuan and the others undoubtedly bulged up all of a sudden.
The next morning, they went to work in the garbage mountain in the south of the city as usual, but the difference was that Ye Qingxuan and the others left just after noon this day.
The staff on the side of the garbage mountain basically don't care whether they arrive late or leave early.
After all, besides luck, the most important thing for how much money you can earn is to put in time and effort.
You earn more if you come early and leave early, and you earn less if you leave early and late. It’s as simple as that, and there’s nothing to worry about.
Regarding Ye Qingxuan's early departure, the staff generally thought that they made a lot of money yesterday and wanted to be lazy today.
But the actual situation is obviously not the case.
This afternoon, they went to buy tools.
Although they can do it without tools, having ready tools will undoubtedly greatly improve their work efficiency.
As for the shop for buying tools, Luo Ji had already stepped on it with a miniature scouting robot, so there was no possibility of getting lost.
With the help of Old Heizi and the others, their reputation has already been established, and now all the tools have been bought.
Obviously, from the very beginning, Ye Qingxuan never planned to make money by picking up trash in the garbage mountain. After all, they are not that kind of material, and picking up trash is still a technical job.
At the same time, relying on this to make money is not efficient enough.
Under this premise, what Ye Qingxuan is good at, needless to say?
Of course it's business!
Scavengers, pick up junk to make money, then she will go to earn the little money in the pockets of the scavengers, this matter is as simple as that!
