"How much are these jeans? 35! They're too expensive. Can you make it cheaper?"

Li Qiang stood on a bench, much taller than everyone else, and kept answering customers who were holding up clothes and asking questions. He suddenly saw Zhao Xiaohai and immediately shouted in surprise, "Brother Hai, Brother Hai, you're back."

"Get out of the way, let me down." He shouted to the crowd to part, jumped off the bench, and quickly walked to Zhao Xiaohai.

"When will windbreakers, jeans, and bell-bottom pants go on sale?" asked Zhao Xiaohai.

"Five days ago, Director Lu sent us a thousand pieces of each item. Xiang Qian and I discussed it and started selling them the next day. Have you seen the brand over there? They were exported to Hong Kong and Japan and then sold domestically." Li Qiang said with a smile.

Zhao Xiaohai naturally saw the sign.

He also estimated that the reason why so many people bought it was partly because of the promotional slogan on the brand.

In people’s minds, foreign goods now represent high-end and classy things.

I feel proud if I can get a little bit of it.

This mentality,

In fact, it has not changed in later generations.

"How much did you sell?" Zhao Xiaohai asked.

Li Qiang pulled Zhao Xiaohai aside and said in a low voice, "This batch of clothes is priced too high, so we sell less wholesale, only about 300 to 400 pieces a day. But we sell more retail. A few days ago, we sold more than 1,000 pieces a day."

The price was set before Zhao Xiaohai left. This time, Zhao Xiaohai did not implement any strategy of small profits but quick turnover. The children's clothing originally obtained from the garment factory had a profit of only about 20%. That was because there were too many homogeneous products across the country, and they could not be wholesaled if the price was too high.

This time,

These windbreakers, jeans, and bell-bottoms can be said to be the first of their kind in China. Except for those imported from abroad at the Friendship Store, they are only available here. Department stores don't sell them. As long as his prices are lower than those at the Friendship Department Store, it's fine.

certainly,

Zhao Xiaohai wouldn't be that dark.

For example, a pair of bell-bottom pants would cost 35 to 40 yuan in foreign exchange coupons at the Friendship Store, but Zhao Xiaohai would sell it for 35 yuan, which is a 30% price difference. Besides, where would ordinary people get foreign exchange coupons?

How much can Zhao Xiaohai earn from a pair of pants?

He bought the goods from Director Lu at 12 yuan each. The garment factory actually made a lot of money at this price, but it was far less than Zhao Xiaohai's profit.

Zhao Xiaohai earned twice as much.

I make more than twenty yuan for a pair of pants.

Jeans are similar.

Windbreakers are more expensive, and you can make around 50 yuan per piece.

Zhao Xiaohai did some calculations in his mind. If he sold 1,500 pieces a day and the average profit was 20, he could make 30,000 that day.

Thirty thousand a day.

This was 30,000 yuan in 1985, which is equivalent to 3 million yuan a day in later times, a crazy profit.

Oh shit,

Don’t set up a sunglasses factory either.

As long as Dehua Street is developed well, earning a million yuan a month is not a dream.

Zhao Xiaohai was shocked when he figured out this number. Damn, this is too much. Will he be targeted? After all, it is still the early days of reform and opening up, and many things have not yet been fully finalized. He knew that a group of people still fell in the first few years of reform and opening up.

Shazi Guazi is not an exception.

But after thinking about it, Zhao Xiaohai felt relieved.

Screw him.

What are you afraid of!

When a person dies, birds fly towards the sky, and he will live forever.

Anyway, I'm not afraid. At worst, I can go to Hong Kong. What can they do to me? Besides, if they want to do something to me, I have to think about whether they still want foreign exchange.

"Tell Zhang Lei to come upstairs to settle the account at noon." Zhao Xiaohai said to Xiao Wudao.

"Okay, Brother Hai."

Li Qiang looked around and pulled Zhao Xiaohai to a relatively quiet corner.

Li Qiang frowned and said in a low voice, "Brother Hai, I have to tell you something, something doesn't seem right.

The municipal government has set up a special working group to deal with the joint venture matters involving Hong Kong businessmen.

Originally, this matter seemed to be moving forward, but there are other circumstances.”

Zhao Xiaohai's heart skipped a beat, and he asked warily, "What else is going on? Tell me quickly."

Li Qiang looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and continued, "Members of this working group actually contacted people in our team one-on-one, saying it was to do work.

Do you think this is normal? Even I was assigned someone to keep an eye on me, constantly chatting with me about this and that. He seemed to care about the project, but I always felt that there was something else behind his words.

After hearing this, Zhao Xiaohai's expression changed slightly, and he immediately understood something.

He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "It seems that this is politics in command.

They do this ostensibly to support the project, but in reality they may be trying to influence people on our team to achieve their own goals.”

Li Qiang asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Brother, what exactly do they want to do? Our project is beneficial to all parties involved."

Zhao Xiaohai shook his head helplessly: "Maybe they are worried that the joint venture model of Hong Kong businessmen will bring some unexpected changes.

Or perhaps the city food factory is behind this, trying to use this working group to disrupt us so they can get involved."

Li Qiang said anxiously, "What should we do? Brother, is our project going to be ruined?"

Zhao Xiaohai patted Li Qiang on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't panic.

Now that we see their intentions, we have ways to deal with them.

Our team must remain calm and not be easily influenced by them.

Go back and tell everyone that no matter what the working group says, don't express your opinions rashly. Let me make all the arrangements."
