Chapter 482 What went wrong

"Sister Yi Yi..." Sun Xiaolan twisted the corner of her clothes and stood in front of her with an embarrassed look on her face.

Although it is already autumn, the sun is still very strong at noon.

I don’t know how long Sun Xiaolan had been standing there, her whole face was sunburned red.

"Xiaolan..." Jian Qingyi was surprised for a moment, then smiled and invited her to come in and sit down.

After not seeing each other for two or three months, Jian Qingyi almost didn't recognize him.

She remembered that when the two little ones celebrated their hundred-day celebration, Sun Xiaolan was plump, if not white. But not long after that, Sun Xiaolan had lost a lot of weight.

My complexion isn't as good as before.

The whole person looks like he has just recovered from a serious illness.

"Sister Yi Yi..." Sun Xiaolan called out to Jian Qingyi nervously. Her dry and chapped lips opened up into a small cut because of her big movement, and bright red blood instantly gushed out of the small cut.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Jian Qingyi stopped, took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her, motioning her to wipe the blood off her lips.

Sun Xiaolan thought there was something dirty on her mouth, so she quickly took a tissue to wipe it, only to find that it was blood.

She wiped it a few more times, making sure the blood had stopped flowing, then she rolled up the tissue and stuffed it into her trouser pocket.

"Sister Yi Yi, can you lend us some money?" Sun Xiaolan mustered up the courage.

"Can you tell me why you are borrowing the money?" Jian Qingyi asked.

In fact, she also knew something about the situation of the Sun family clothing store.

Either I deliberately inquire about it, or I hear the gossip from the clothing store owners when they come to buy goods.

Opening the store after the peak sales season is a big failure. There is no customer accumulation, and the store has been carelessly piled up with so many goods. Without making much money, the store will have to face the problem of selling goods during the change of seasons.

Selling off goods during the season change will inevitably result in losses.

If you don't care, you will lose money.

key……

By next year, the style will be outdated and it’s hard to say whether it can be sold.

Therefore, it is the wisest decision to cut off the tail and sell the goods at a loss to survive.

"We have no money to purchase goods." Sun Xiaolan lowered her head and spoke in a low voice.

"Is this your personal decision? Or is it your parents' idea?" Jian Qingyi was very curious.

If it was her personal idea, could she, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, influence her parents?

If it was her parents' intention and they needed to borrow money because they couldn't make ends meet, why didn't they come over themselves but instead sent a child?

"It's me..." Sun Xiaolan lowered her head and twisted her fingers.

"Xiaolan, these are matters for adults. You are just a child, so don't worry about them." Jian Qingyi patted her arm gently.

Whether she acted on her own initiative or Sun Qiang did it intentionally, she would never lend money to a child who had no civil capacity.

"Come in and drink some water. Look how dry your mouth is." Jian Qingyi invited her in.

Sun Xiaolan nodded slightly and followed Jian Qingyi closely.

It is the peak sales season in autumn, and there are a lot of customers in the store.

Some are buying small jackets, some are trying on dresses, some are looking at jeans...

The saleswomen in the store were all busy.

Especially those who are counting, collecting money and packing clothes at the counter, their hands never stop moving.

"Boss Jian, I haven't seen you for a long time. When will you treat us to Yunlai dim sum?" A regular customer was trying to extort money.

"When else? Now." Jian Qingyi waved his hand.

A phone call was made and in less than five minutes, ten boxes of snacks were delivered.

"Our boss Jian is so generous." Everyone cheered.

Now, both new and old customers know that the female boss of Yisheng is named Jian.

Those who can come to [Yisheng] to buy clothes all have some money at home.

They gritted their teeth and bought clothes worth a few hundred dollars.

After all, clothes can be worn for many years.

You can also go out and show off.

But if they were asked to spend dozens of dollars to buy a box of Yunlai snacks, they might not be willing to do so.

Jian Qingyi brought a box of snacks to Sun Xiaolan who was sitting in the lounge area, and then went to greet the guests.

Looking at Jian Qingyi holding a box of snacks and chatting and laughing with the guests, Sun Xiaolan seemed to have figured something out.

She quietly took three pieces of snacks and put them in her pocket.

"Sister Yi Yi, I'm going back first." She greeted Jian Qingyi and ran away without waiting for Jian Qingyi's response.

Jian Qingyi accidentally glanced at the snack box in the rest area and was about to ask her to take it back to her sister, but when she turned around, the person had disappeared.

"Yi Yi, was that little girl just now Sun Xiaocao's sister?" Zhao Shengnan asked.

Jian Qingyi nodded and handed the box of snacks in her hand to Zhao Shengnan and several female salespeople.

Each person took a piece and started eating it in small bites.

The taste of Yunlai dim sum is really not exaggerated.

It is crispy and fragrant, and the filling inside is delicious, sweet but not greasy, with a hint of floral fragrance.

The only downside is...

Too expensive!

The cheapest one is twenty yuan a box.

Twenty yuan can buy ten kilograms of fat meat.

The lard made from ten kilograms of fat meat is enough for a family of eight to eat for half a year.

A box of Yunlai’s snacks costs ten yuan. Although the shapes are different, they are all the size of a ping-pong ball.

Children as young as seven or eight can easily finish a box.

Comparing the two, even a fool would know which to choose.

"Pa!" A crisp slap hit Sun Xiaolan's face.

Sun Xiaolan covered her face which was hit by Sun Qiang and was unable to recover for a long time.

The burning pain on her face reminded her that she was beaten by her father.

"Dad, Xiaolan is still young..." Fearing that Sun Qiang would attack again, Sun Xiaocao hurriedly protected his third sister Sun Xiaolan behind him.

"Yes! Dad, Xiaolan is still young, what does she know!" Sun Qiang's wife also hurriedly spoke to persuade.

"She's small?" Sun Qiang pointed at Sun Xiaolan angrily, "I think she's got big ideas!"

"Buy some snacks from Yunlai to entertain the guests..." Sun Qiang laughed angrily.

"What a big deal! Buying snacks from Yunlai to entertain customers."

The cheapest snacks in Yunlai cost twenty yuan a box.

His family only makes ten yuan from each piece of clothing, so he has to sell two pieces of clothing to earn enough money for a box of snacks.

He would be crazy to spend twenty dollars to buy a box of snacks to entertain guests.

"Sister Yi Yi is always like this..." Sun Xiaolan explained hurriedly.

"He is the big boss of Yunlai, are you?" Sun Qiang clenched his fists.

Sun Xiaolan lowered her head and stopped talking.

"Idiot!" Sun Qiang was still not satisfied.

The clothes in Jian Qingyi's store cost at least a hundred yuan each, but what about their store?

Twenty, thirty, thirty, forty.

The most expensive ones are less than a hundred.

What can they use to compete with Jian Qingyi?

And they buy the goods at cost price, they...

Sun Qiang smiled bitterly.

He really regretted it.

If he had known that business was so difficult, he would never have sold his job.

Sun Qiang sighed and went to the small compartment at the back with his shoulders drooped.

"Xiaolan, don't be angry with your father. He is just anxious and angry." Sun Qiang's wife whispered.
