Chapter 175: A good start and a fortune

"What's the solution?"

Ye Qi and Li Ting asked quickly.

"Actually, Li Ting's words just now reminded me that we can't say that Ye Lin can't eat enough outside, but we can say that we can't eat well!"

"Yes! Why didn't I expect that my brother opened a car repair shop, and there must be many people coming to repair bicycles every day. How can I eat well when I'm busy?"

"Yes, yes, that's great, let's tell my aunt that Ye Lin is so busy that he doesn't even have time to eat." Li Ting continued Ye Qi's words.

"Well! You two are right, but not enough."

"Ah! That's not enough?"

"Yes, not enough, we can also say that we can't sleep well."

"Can't sleep?" Li Ting blinked and asked, "What does it mean?"

Zhai Ying looked at Ye Qi and Li Ting and said, "We just said that Ye Lin is very busy every day, sometimes he is busy until midnight, and he has no good rest."

"Hahaha, I understand, this is great. When my aunt hears this, she will feel sorry for Ye Lin at all, and then come to find Ye Lin and ask Ye Lin to go home."

"That's right!"

"Okay, let's just say that when we go back."

......

Of course, Ye Lin didn't know what happened outside. He was renovating a batch of used bicycles at this time.

However, after the renovation, he did not assemble the parts, but placed the parts in the outside repair shop.

After knowing the price of parts, Ye Lin thought about this question: selling parts is more profitable than selling bicycles. Assembled bicycles can be sold for up to 200 yuan, but assembling parts of a bicycle can be sold for 300 yuan.

Of course, parts are sold relatively fewer, so bicycles still have to be sold. However, when you go in the future, you can buy less, or even say you can't. Just enter what you need.

The next morning, Ye Lin got up early in the morning.

First, I ordered a bowl of mutton soup and two sesame cakes at the breakfast shop next to me. To be honest, he is a bit extravagant. A bicycle repairman, who would be willing to eat this?

After eating, Ye Lin went over and opened the door.

In later generations, when you first open, you will be able to have an opening celebration, at least a few firecrackers will be set off.

But Ye Lin is not good here because this is a collective industry and belongs to the streets. There is no such thing as opening or not opening.

Also, this place was originally a car repair shop, but it was just a different person.

Ye Lin took out some bicycle tires and hanged them outside. This is the signboard. When you see this, you will know that the repair car has been opened.

In fact, Ye Lin didn't understand why. Anyway, the repair shops he had been to were like this. He put a few bicycle tires outside and sat down and waited.

Ye Lin didn't wait long before a young woman in her twenties came over on a bicycle, parked the bicycle at the door of the repair shop, and said to Ye Lin: "My little master, why did my bicycle rattle?"

The young woman asked Ye Lin and looked into the room. She probably regarded Ye Lin as an apprentice. She was looking for a car repairman.

Ye Lin didn't care about this and walked over and said, "Where did you hear me?"

"Here." The young woman pointed to the big toothed plate.

"Is the chain ringing?"

"No, it seems to be inside."

"Oh." Ye Lin grabbed the pedal and shook it a few times. Sure enough, he heard the rattle inside and said to the young woman: "This is the bearing inside, and you may have to change the bearing."

“Change the bearing?”

“Yes, change the bearing.”

"How much does it cost to replace a bearing?"

"Twelve dollars."

“So expensive.”

Hearing the young woman's words, Ye Lin smiled bitterly and said, "Sister, I'm already a conscience price. If you don't believe it, you can go elsewhere. If there is something cheaper than me, I'll exchange it for you for free."

Ye Lin is right. He is indeed cheaper than others, because bearings alone cost twelve yuan, which means he does not require labor costs.

Hearing Ye Lin say this, the young woman glanced into the room again.

Ye Lin still doesn't understand what she is looking at. He probably is waiting for the car repairman to come out and then ask some more.

Ye Lin shook his head and said, "Sister, stop looking. I am the only one here. I am the car repairer. If you are not at ease, you can go and take a look elsewhere. If you are at ease, hand over the bicycle to me and I promise to repair it for you."

Hearing Ye Lin's words, the young woman thought for a while, and nodded and said, "Okay, twelve is twelve, when will it be repaired?"

To be honest, she also wanted to go to repair it elsewhere. After all, Ye Lin was too small, but there was only one car repair shop in front of the street. If she went elsewhere, she would have to run far away and she would have to go to work.

"If you are in a hurry to ride a bike, come here at noon. If you are not in a hurry, come here in the afternoon or tomorrow. It depends on you."

"I'm in a hurry to ride, let's do this, can I come here at noon?"

"Can."

"Okay, then I'll come here at noon."

As the young woman left, Ye Lin was about to push her bicycle into the house and put it in the space to change the bearings. Another middle-aged man came.

"My little master, where is your master? Come and see what's going on with my front fork?"

"Uncle, I don't have a master, I'm just a car repairman." Ye Lin put down the young woman's bicycle and walked over.

"Uh! Sorry, then you can help me see what's going on."

"OK."

Ye Lin went over, took a look, then grabbed the bicycle handle and shook it a few times and said, "Uncle, your front fork is broken."

"Ah! No."

"Uncle, don't you care about this handlebar?" Ye Lin shook the handlebars, and the wheels didn't move.

If it were in the past, Ye Lin could be said to be ignorant of bicycles. Even if it was broken, he could only go to the repair shop to repair it. But now it is different. During this period, Ye Lin didn’t know how many bicycles he had to dismantle or how many bicycles he had to install every day.

Although he doesn't need to do it himself in the space, he knows every part and every process clearly, otherwise he wouldn't have built this repair shop.

For Ye Lin now, a bicycle is just a toy. He can disassemble it into parts at any time and install it at any time. It is not difficult for him at all.

"My little master, is it because the screws inside are loose?"

"Uncle, wait a moment."

Ye Lin went over and took a live rifle and removed a screw from the top. This was a long screw, which was directly connected to the front fork below.

After the screw is removed, the front fork and bicycle wheels fall directly to the ground.

Seeing this situation, the middle-aged man said in surprise: "It's really broken."

"Uncle, you can't be wrong."

"That little master, how much does it cost to change a front fork?"

"Uncle, it's twenty-five to change the front fork."

"So expensive!"

Ye Lin didn't understand why everyone asked this question, aren't all rich people who can ride bicycles? Rich people still care about this.

"Uncle, this is a real price. I think you can't push it away anymore. Let's change it first. Go and ask somewhere else in the future. If my place is more expensive than others, I will return the money to you."

"this……"

Ye Lin said so. What else can a middle-aged man say? He can only put his bicycle here and let Ye Lin cultivate it.

However, when I was leaving, I saw several bicycles at the door and asked, "Master, are these bicycles repaired by others?"

"No, this is a bicycle that people don't want from the car repair shop, and then sell it."

"That's it, then you can see if this is OK? I'll put the bicycle here to repair it. I'll let me ride this bicycle. I have an urgent matter today and need to go out to do it."

"Uncle, this is not OK. You rode the bicycle away. If anyone came to buy a bicycle, wouldn't you delay me selling my bicycle?"

Hearing Ye Lin say this, the middle-aged man thought about it and said to Ye Lin: "In this way, I will put the bicycle here for you to repair it, and then I will press it for fifty yuan. When I come to get the bicycle, I will return the bicycle to you."

"Uncle, if you do this, you might as well buy one from me."

“Buy one?”

"Yes, if you buy one, just use your old bicycle to buy one. Your bicycle will be only 70% new, and you have to change the front fork, so it's better to change it."

"How to change it?"

"In this way, add your old bicycle. If you change to this 60% new one, you will give me another twenty yuan. If you change to this 70% new one, you will give me another fifty yuan. If you change to this 80% new one, you will give me another eighty yuan."

"Where are these two?" The middle-aged man pointed at Ye Lin's two refurbished cars.

"These two cars were replaced, but the price was a bit high."

“How much does it cost?”

“Add one hundred and six.”

When he heard Ye Lin say that he would add one hundred and six, the middle-aged man's eyes lit up and he said, "Wait a moment."

After saying that, the middle-aged man opened the bag, flipped it in it, then took out a dime and counted it, counted out sixteen pieces and handed it to Ye Lin, pointing at the Phoenix Renovation Car and said, "I want this one."

Ye Lin was stunned for a moment, but nodded and said, "Yes."

Actually, what Ye Lin didn't know was that middle-aged people had long wanted to change a bicycle, but they had never gotten an industrial coupon. Now that they are better, they just added 16 to an old bicycle and exchanged for a new one.

You should know that this is a Phoenix Bicycle. Even if you get an industrial coupon, it will cost 260 yuan. In other words, the value of his old bicycle is equivalent to 100 yuan and thirteen industrial coupons.

"Then I'll ride away?" The middle-aged man confirmed again.

"Ride away."

When he heard Ye Lin say ride away, the middle-aged man didn't say anything, hung his bag on the handlebar and ran away. Those who didn't know thought he was stealing the bicycle, but Ye Lin understood why the middle-aged man was like this, probably because he was afraid that he would go back on his word.

Ye Lin regretted it, a refurbished car not only changed to a new bicycle, but also cost 160 yuan. As for the fork of the bicycle, it was not a big deal for Ye Lin.
