Bai Wei woke up to find herself transmigrated into the 1980s. She had become a girl who had never dated before and was being pressured by her parents to get married.
She had to go on a blind ...
As soon as the lunch box was opened, it was filled with fragrance. Several people passing by the store smelled the fragrance, tilted their heads to look for where the fragrance came from, and then they saw Bai Wei's large lunch box.
Before I had taken a few bites of the meal, a few little girls came in chattering.
It was the first time they had seen this kind of jewelry. It was exquisite and beautiful, and did not look cheap at all. The key was that the price marked on it was low.
“This bracelet is so beautiful!”
"Is this a waist chain? So cool!"
“I want to buy this!”
They started choosing excitedly, and Bai Wei did not disturb them. She stood not far away and answered their questions when they had them.
Judging from their attire, these girls should be students from nearby schools. Although they like necklaces, waist chains and the like, most of them only bought hairpins and bracelets because they cannot wear them outside.
Those hairpins were also very beautiful, and because the cost was very low, each one only sold for ten cents. Some of the more complicated designs only sold for fifteen cents.
Such cheap and beautiful accessories immediately captured the hearts of several female classmates.
Four little girls bought seven hairpins in total, and one of them bought the most, three.
Some of them bought them for themselves, and some bought them for their sisters at home.
After everyone paid, they left happily.
Seeing that there was no one in the store, Bai Wei sat down to have lunch.
After lunch, which was the hottest time of the day, Bai Wei sat at the small counter and began to make jewelry.
It took about an hour, during which time someone occasionally came into the store to take a look, but they just looked and left.
Bai Wei felt a little hot, so she stood up and poured herself a cup of fruit tea.
After taking two sips, a mother and daughter walked in from outside.
The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with tender cheeks. She was wearing a school uniform, the same uniform as the four girls at noon.
She got closer, looked at the store, and then said happily to her mother, "Mom, this is it!"
The girls' purpose was very clear, which was this store. Bai Wei guessed that these girls might be classmates. She saw that the accessories worn by her classmates were very beautiful, so she asked for the address and brought her mother here to buy accessories.
"Mom, this hairpin is so beautiful. Do you think it looks good on me?"
"This bracelet is so pretty, it goes perfectly with my dress!"
The girl happily picked out what she liked, and her mother didn't say anything. Instead, she stood where the brooch was placed and kept watching.
Their families were obviously well off. The girl picked out three hairpins, all of which were the most beautiful, some costing one dime and some costing one and a half cents, and a bracelet that cost twenty cents.
Without asking the price, the girl walked directly to Bai Wei and said, "Hello, please help me pack it."
"Okay, wait a moment."
Bai Wei took the items and walked to the counter, then told the price.
The girl was obviously absent-minded. She didn't care about the price of a few cents and walked straight to her mother.
"Mom, this red brooch is so pretty. It seems to go well with your new skirt."
The woman listened to her and nodded, obviously agreeing.
The girl continued, "Why don't you pick one for mom too? I remember that mom and Aunt Fangfang are going to have a party in a few days. She will look great in her new dress and this brooch."
"Okay, my dear daughter has such good taste, so let's buy two."
The woman smiled and finally picked out two brooches.
Next to the brooch is the necklace. Bai Wei has made many necklaces in the same color. After choosing the brooch and then the necklace, the woman always feels that her neck is empty.
Finally, the woman picked out two brooches, a necklace, and a men's bracelet.
Bai Wei counted the money and gave them a 20% discount, saying, "Hello, the total price is 1.6 yuan, and after the 20% discount, the total is 1.28 yuan."
The woman paid the money readily and left with her daughter.
This is probably the largest order today, worth more than one yuan.
Bai Wei counted the banknotes happily.
Since the mother and daughter left, there were basically no people around for the rest of the afternoon. Even if someone came in to take a look, they just came to see the novelty and left without buying anything.
Whenever Bai Wei has free time, she starts making small accessories.
However, around five or six in the afternoon, a group of students suddenly came into the store.
They were all wearing school uniforms from the same school, including the four girls who came at noon. At this moment, there were actually more than a dozen female students in the store picking out accessories.
"Wow, it's really the bracelet Qiqi bought, and there are several styles!"
“This is so beautiful!”
"I still have three dollars for living expenses, I can still buy..."
The girls were chattering and trying on jewelry, and it was actually a bit noisy after listening for a long time.
It was evening and many people were going to buy groceries and cook after get off work. When they passed by here, they saw a group of young and beautiful female students in the jewelry store and they couldn't help but take a look at them again and again.
"Boss, I want this!"
"I want this, how much is it?"
They bought a lot of things in groups of three or four, including bracelets, hairpins, and hand strings, and these three were the best-selling items.
After they left, some students came one after another. This street was very busy and students would pass by here on their way to school. They were all high school students, so who didn't have a few cents in their hands?
Some of the wealthier ones would even directly take out big unity coins, making the students who were shopping nearby envious.
Bai Wei wanted to do business, so she changed a lot of change in advance, from a few cents to a few dollars, everything, and she was not worried about not being able to make the change.
By the time these students left, it was already half past seven.
Bai Wei was already a little tired. She looked at the time, cleaned the store again, put the accessories in order, and counted the money to check the accounts.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Bai Wei turned on the lights and closed the door on time.
The bicycle was not far from the door. Bai Wei carried her small backpack and rode home.
Lu Siting was already at home. He remembered Bai Wei's working time. Seeing that his wife was about to get off work, he walked to the gate of the military compound to wait for someone.
Bai Wei rode home quickly. She was very hungry and her voice was weak.
Lu Siting hurriedly heated up the dinner and brought it to the table.
Bai Wei wolfed down a steamed bun and half a bowl of porridge, then slowed down so that she had time to talk.
Lu Siting asked: "How is it? Today is the first day of business. How do you feel?"
Talking about her feelings about opening the store today, Bai Wei felt much more energetic.
"Today is the first day of business, and there are still quite a lot of people. The turnover is not bad, and it has exceeded seven yuan. Before I came back, I calculated that I had made nearly half of the profit."
"Most of the customers who came today, including those who came to watch the fun, were young people. Among those who bought things in the end, two-thirds were students from a nearby school."
