Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 1832: . Obsolete goods stall
Today is not a day off, so the handover is very fast. Qin Shiou is not short of money, and the landlord is eager to make a move. The two sides hit it off. Qin Shiou handed over the house purchase to Auerbach, and he went to clean up the house.
He values this house very much, that is, the decoration style inside the house is extravagant but restrained. Weinie likes this style and can be used directly without decoration.
So, this house can be moved in with a bag, as long as you change the quilt and kitchenware.
Zhong Dajun and Mao Weilong helped Qin Shiou clean up the house, and a group of fishermen also came to help. The cleanup was simple and quick. The focus was on cleaning and putting some useless and unnecessary things at the door.
Small building is not a residential area surrounded by walls, but a single-family apartment. The entrance is the street, but not the main road, so it will not be very noisy, and it will be quiet.
Qin Shiou folded the quilt and put it in a box, with a label on it. The space quilt was priced at ten Canadian dollars, and it read: the quilt is clean and used less frequently.
In addition, there are those new-looking tableware that he packs and puts at the door. The price of the label paper is very low. The most expensive multi-function oven is only 50 yuan, and if it is brand new, at least one Thousands of dollars.
Zhong Dajun asked strangely: "Why don't you sell second-hand? With such a low price as you, you might as well throw it away as garbage."
Qin Shiou smiled and said: "This is selling second-hand. If you want to find a special second-hand consignee, I'm sorry, St. Johns doesn't have it. Only those big cities in Toronto have them. These second-hand products are placed at the door and processed at low prices. It is convenient for some low-income people. They will buy it back when they meet the right one."
Mao Weilong also explained to him: "Lao Jia is different from us Chinese. Sometimes you don't want face, sometimes you want face. In terms of second-hand supplies, unless they are needed, they usually buy new ones and don't have the concept of saving money. , These people really waste how to come."
For Canadians, the discarded daily necessities are more troublesome to deal with. If it is handed over to the state for disposal, it will cost money and waste disposal fees. Therefore, it is generally sold at the door, one is to generate income, the other is to facilitate the people in need, and the third is to save money.
If no one buys it in the end, it will usually be sent to the store designated by the charity organization, and they will choose what they think is useful to sell. The money obtained after the sale is used for charity work.
The things Qin Shiou put out are basically good products. Bedding and the like are brand new. According to the landlord’s statement, no one has used second-hand bedding for Wei Ni and the child, let alone second-hand tableware. They have to be dealt with.
He basically believed what the landlord said. He can't guarantee whether the bedding has been used, but it should not have been washed. The difference between the space before and after washing can be seen.
Washing machine, refrigerator and other electrical appliances were also taken out. Some of them were high-power. Qin Shiou had to replace them with environmentally friendly appliances to prevent excessive radiation from affecting Wei Ni and her children.
Zhong Dajun watched these brand-new home appliances put on cheap labels and threw them outside, with a painful expression on his face, and exclaimed: "I am not afraid of your jokes. To such a good thing? These washing machines and refrigerators are so high-end. It costs tens of thousands of dollars to put them in the country? Just sell them for a few hundred dollars?"
Qin Shiou patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hi. It's convenient for those who need it. Besides, what's a joke about this? If you make money in the future, you will deal with second-hand goods in the same way."
Zhong Dajun shook his head and sighed: "Then I must have more money to do this?"
Soon someone was attracted to the daily necessities outside the apartment, and the first couple came to buy it was a white couple. After seeing refrigerators, washing machines, microwave ovens, juicers and electric ovens and other appliances, they immediately paid for Zhong Dajun next to him.
Qin Shiou looked at the couple although they were white. But the skin tone is slightly darker, the facial contours are different from those of white people everywhere in St. Johns, and the eyes and hair are also black, so he asked, "Excuse me, are you Syrians?"
The man looked at him vigilantly and said, "Sir, we are legal immigrants."
This is equivalent to tacitly being a Syrian. Qin Shiou smiled friendly and said: "St. Johns has assistance programs. If you are Syrian immigrants within one year, you can enjoy a 50% discount on the purchase of second-hand goods, as long as you put it on the label. Half the money will do."
Syria is now in civil strife. Hundreds of thousands of refugees are flocking to the border. The United States and Europe have been negotiating how to solve the immigration problem. But the U.S. emperor-gangsters usually fool the younger brothers very hard, this will be shameless, and they will directly say that they do not accept refugees. Canada followed in the footsteps of the eldest brother, and they did not accept it, but let go of the conditions for Syrian immigrants.
This Syrian couple should have migrated here temporarily. They don’t have much money. Because of the civil unrest and war, their assets have been frozen in the country and cannot be brought out. Some provinces in Canada have formulated preferential policies for Syrian immigrants, and there are also many non-governmental organizations involved. The Newfoundland Fisheries Alliance joined such a policy.
The man smiled awkwardly, and fell silent after paying, as if his self-esteem had been hurt. But he didn't refuse, instead, there was a faintly relaxed expression on his face. Obviously he didn't have much money, and it was quite difficult to buy these second-hand daily necessities at low prices.
Qin Shiou helped him find a moving company and moved the electrical furniture. The man hugged him and thanked him, and then became interested in talking and asked them where they were immigrants.
Qin Shiou said it was from China, and the Syrian couple showed envy on their faces. The man said: "China, I have been there. I did a railway project and I went to your country for inspection. You are very good, such a big country, so many. Population, but there are no internal wars or conflicts of beliefs. Your leadership is very strong."
Zhong Dajun could not understand the man’s vague English accent, so he asked Mao Weilong. After Mao Weilong translated it for him, he smiled bitterly: "Come on, our political parties and leaders are envied by foreigners? If I go back and tell my buddies, they specify me to talk nonsense."
Before coming to St. Johns, Qin Shiou complained repeatedly in his domestic life, especially the crazy housing price and medical problems. However, after leaving the country, I found that among the immigrants, the situation of the Chinese is still relatively good. Chinese immigrants are pursuing a better life and environment, while immigrants from some countries have to immigrate and cannot survive in their countries.
After four or five years of hard work abroad, Qin Shiou has matured a lot and no longer arbitrarily evaluates state power and political parties. But when it comes to maintaining stability, it is true that the whole world cannot compare with China. (To be continued~^~)
