Chapter 493: Rush Buying Scene

Hearing that the price was the same as in the store, the beauty-loving girls were tempted.

But there are no clothes with this kind of style and pattern in the store, and most of the styles are more or less the same.

"The price is not expensive, but I don't have that much money on me?" a girl said with a little regret.

"If you don't have enough money, you can buy one first and then buy the other one later." Her companion gave him some advice.

“I just don’t know if there will be more in the future?”

Wan Feng immediately replied, "Yes, I guarantee it. Starting today, our clothing factory will be holding a clothing exhibition and sales event here every day. However, since the factory has just been established, we have limited equipment and staff. We can only produce 30 to 40 pieces a day. If you want to buy something, you'll have to rely on luck."

When these girls heard that the daily output was only this small, they wondered what they could do with such a small amount of food. Even though Huaiyuan County is not big, it has a population of more than 200,000.

Since buying it in the future depends on luck, it’s better to do it now.

then…

“I’ll buy this dress.”

"Sister, there is no discount for buying individually, so I can only charge you four yuan." Wan Feng took a five-yuan bill and gave one yuan in change.

Once one person took the initiative, the others didn't hesitate any more. When several people acted at the same time, there was a panic buying.

To the astonishment of Wen Yu and her brother, the more than 30 pieces of clothing brought by Wan Feng were sold out in just over ten minutes.

When the last piece of clothing was sold, some people still asked unwillingly, "Are there no more? Will there be any for tomorrow?"

Wan Feng pretended to be serious: "It won't be available tomorrow, so I can't make it, but it will definitely be available the day after tomorrow. If you want to buy it during this time period, just come here and buy it."

Many girls left disappointed, but remembered the day after tomorrow.

Wan Feng stuffed the clothes string into the empty cloth bag and looked back at the Wen Yu siblings: "See? That's how we sell it."

Wen Tan stammered, "How is this possible?"

There's nothing impossible about this.

In the early 1980s, there were countless inexplicable robberies and robberies.

A few photographers in Kyoto took some random photos and held a photo exhibition. In just a few days, more than 70,000 people came to watch.

Pierre Cardin held a fashion show in Shanghai with Western models. Some people who couldn't afford tickets drew their own and sneaked in to watch.

When Ye Yonglie's "Little Smart Wandering in the Future" was released, it was not uncommon to see people lining up to buy it. What was new was that even scalpers appeared.

When the ban on movies was just lifted, people who were tired of watching model operas could attract crowds of people to watch the Chao County movie "The Flower Girl".

What else won't happen.

He just sold a few new styles of clothes that people here had never seen before. What's so strange about that?

"Okay, we can go back now and talk while we walk."

The three people started to walk back. Wen Yu and Wen Tan had not yet calmed down and were still immersed in the rush to buy.

“Do you know how many costumes I sold?”

Wen Tan didn't know that. He was stunned at that time. Wan Feng asked him to watch the stall and make sure it wasn't snatched away. He thought it was a joke, but when the rush to buy started, he was completely stunned. He didn't even remember how many clothes Wan Feng brought.

"There are thirty-two sets of clothes and pants in total, not including the one I'm wearing." Women are really careful.

"The suit you're wearing is a gift for you."

"Really!" Wen Yu was so surprised that he almost flew into the air.

"Then Wen Tan, calculate how much money I have earned in this short while."

"Sixteen pairs of pants, 70 cents per pair, that's ten yuan and twenty cents. Sixteen pieces of clothing, each one a dollar and fifty cents, that's... twenty-four yuan, a total of thirty-four yuan and twenty cents. Wow! The money you've made in just a short while is almost as much as my dad's monthly salary!"

Wen Tan's eyes turned red.

Last month, he owed someone fifteen yuan and was chased all over the city by the other party.

Now, this guy has earned nearly thirty-five yuan in just over ten minutes, and this is because he has no stock left. If he had stock left, he doesn't know how much he could sell it for.

"Are you still saying this costume can't be sold? Are you interested in selling it?"

Wen Tan looked at his sister.

That Wen Yu nodded.

When she calculated that Wan Feng had earned so much money in such a short time, she was completely confused.

This money can be earned in this way, and it flows like water.

At this moment, she suddenly realized a problem: beauty without money seems to be useless.

"Come with me tomorrow to get the goods from us. If you really don't have the capital, I can sell the first batch on credit. You will be responsible for buying the goods, and your sister and your mother will be responsible for selling them at home. In a few days, you will find that you have money. Do you want to do it?"

"Damn! But I've never been far away, and I'm a little scared." Wen Tan felt a little nervous at the thought of going far away.

"What are you afraid of? You're cleaner than your face, and you're just so-so. Human traffickers don't want you at your age, so what are you afraid of? If your sister were to go out on her own, she'd be understandable."

"Wouldn't it be valuable to bring money back and forth to purchase goods when I have money in the future?"

"By that day, you'll have made at least two or three trips. By then, you'll have gained experience and won't be afraid anymore. Besides, from Hongya to Huaiyuan, whether you reverse at Xiuyan or Goudong, you'll be back in one day, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

Wen Tan thought about it and realized that this was the truth.

"Then I'll ask my mom tonight. If she doesn't pay, we'll have to buy the first batch on credit."

Wen Tan's mother saw the bag of clothes that Wan Feng brought. She watched Wan Feng and his son and daughter go out with the bag on their backs. When they came back, she only saw the empty cloth bag.

After hearing his daughter and son's story about Wan Feng selling clothes on the street, he was so surprised that his mouth was wide open.

It can be seen that she is a woman with a strong backbone. If a woman whose husband rarely comes home all year round does not have a strong backbone, the family may have broken up long ago.

She firmly supported her son and daughter in their efforts, but she was worried about her son going out alone for the first time, so she wanted to go along and take a look, even if it meant spending an extra six dollars on travel expenses.

The next day, Wentan and his mother followed Wanfeng on their journey. After a day's journey, they arrived at Wahou at around three o'clock in the afternoon.

When they saw the scale of the garment factory, their expressions were as shocked as those of other people who came to Luan's house for the first time.

Wen Tan's mother was quite courageous. She bought more than fifty sets of clothes when she came there for the first time.

At night, Na Wentan's mother was arranged to stay at Luan Feng's house, while Na Wentan followed Wan Feng to live with Wan Feng's grandmother.

Wan Feng also showed Wen Tan an electronic watch and told him that he would license the electronic watch to him after he gained some experience in selling clothes.

Not surprisingly, Wen Tan was surprised again.

The next morning, Wan Feng took the mother and son to the bus station on his motorcycle.
