The 95th day of being eavesdropped

The 95th day of being eavesdropped

Liang Ying took a pair of gym pants home and took them apart to look at the pattern. The workmanship was very ordinary. The material was not bad, but it was also ordinary material. If you count the cost, a pair of pants would cost no more than three or four yuan.

But when you sell it, it's twenty-eight yuan?!

Liang Ying's heart was beating fast. She tried to make a few pairs of pants for He Chunlian and Gu Yinxing.

He Chunlian tried them on and said, "These pants are not bad, but they show my figure too much. It wouldn't be a problem if the top was a little longer though."

"I think they're quite comfortable to wear like this," Gu Yinxing touched the pants with great pleasure. "Sister-in-law, if you really want to make these pants, I can help you promote them to our colleagues. They're comfortable to wear, unlike jeans which are stiff."

"Then do you think it would be profitable if I went back and produced a batch of fitness pants specifically?"

Liang Ying was a little worried. After all, this business was not like before, when she already had orders and didn't have to worry about people not wanting them. But now she had to produce the products first and she had to put up the money. If the goods were unsalable and couldn't be sold, she would definitely lose money.

He Chunlian thought for a moment, "I think they look good, but I'm afraid not everyone can wear them. They are so slim-fitting, and they won't look good on someone who's a little fat."

"However," He Chunlian saw that Liang Ying looked a little disappointed, and quickly added, "People are much thinner nowadays, especially young girls who are as thin as sticks. They will definitely like these."

Liang Ying nodded, and she had some idea in her mind.

After all, what you learn from books is always superficial. If you ask your mother-in-law and sister-in-law, you may not be able to get anything. You still have to produce a batch to test the waters first.

She bought a batch of cloth from the textile factory, about ten rolls, made the pattern herself, and asked Guan Daya and others to produce a batch of samples, and then took Lin Lu to the trade fair.

This time, the two of them were not there to be customers like before, but to promote the leggings themselves.

The trade fair was crowded with people.

A batch of leggings were hung on the hangers, and people came and went around, only glancing at these simple pants and turning their heads away.

Lin Lu said, "Sister-in-law, our pants are rare in Beijing now. It may be difficult to sell them if we promote them like this. We have to think of a way."

Liang Ying frowned and said, "What you said makes sense. How about this,"

she paused, and suddenly an idea came to her mind, "You watch the stall here first, I'll go find someone!"

She whispered her plan to Lin Lu, and Lin Lu's eyes lit up and clapped her hands, "Sister-in-law, this is a good idea, you go quickly, I'll watch here!" There

were people responsible for maintaining order at the trade fair, and Liang Ying just left with peace of mind.

She hurried back to the Liang family's old house and saw Guan Daya and the others were busy, so she quickly called seven or eight people in. There were older women and young girls in their early twenties. Liang Ying said, "Don't work today. Come with me to the trade fair to be models."

A young girl asked, "Sister Liang, what is a model?"

"You don't even know this. Models just let us walk around in front of others." Sister Cai was quick-witted and kept muttering, "Sister Liang, you can just ask the young girls to do this kind of thing. Why do you ask us old-timers to help?"

Liang Ying couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Cai, don't underestimate yourself. You all know that our company has recently produced fitness pants. Those pants are not only suitable for young girls, but also for people of our age. We want to promote our products now, so we have to try our best. Don't be shy and dare not go."

"Go."

Sister Cai was embarrassed. "What's there to be embarrassed about being a model? Since you dare to ask us to go, we will go. At worst, we'll just give it a try. If we lose face, we'll all be laughed at."

Sister Cai was quite popular. After she said that, others felt embarrassed to refuse.

Liang Ying did not treat them badly. She told them that the trip would cost 20 yuan per person, including a meal. Everyone agreed immediately.

Liang Ying even went home to get a dual-cassette radio and Zhang Qiang's tapes.

When she and her group arrived at the trade fair, the trade fair was at its busiest time. When

Lin Lu saw Liang Ying and her group coming back, she immediately stood up and came to greet them, "Sister-in-law, you are finally here. You were not here just now. Do you know who I met?"

"Who?" Liang Ying asked while instructing Sister Cai and the others to pull a curtain and change their pants. Just

as Lin Lu was about to speak, she caught a glimpse of Lin Lianhua and Song Mei, and pursed her lips in that direction: "It's them."

How can I say this?

It's simply a narrow road for enemies to meet.

Liang Ying put down the radio and looked at the person who came.

Lin Lianhua was wearing a light pink floral dress with a smile on her face, "Liang Ying, you still have a stall here, why don't many people come?"

Liang Ying said lightly: "Sorry, we are busy now and don't have time to talk to you."

Song Mei looked at the sparse crowd in front of their stall and couldn't help but laugh: "Liang Ying, what are you busy with? No one is patronizing your business. We..."

Before she finished speaking,

Liang Ying pressed the play button of the radio with a click, and the naughty and lively music immediately sounded. Soon, Zhang Yan's sexy and energetic singing filled the entire stall.

The people around heard the music here and were attracted to it. They came to see the excitement.

Seeing that there were many people, Liang Ying said to Sister Cai and the others, "Don't be shy, just walk around in a circle, put your hands on your hips, straighten your chest, tighten your back and shrink your stomach!"

Seeing that more and more people were outside, these ladies and girls who had never seen such a big scene on weekdays were a little timid.

Liang Ying saw that the situation was not good, so she gave a strong prescription: "Go bravely, I will give you fifty yuan each for today!"

Money is attractive.

Fifty yuan is a month's salary for many people.

These women thought about the money, gritted their teeth and walked out.

Liang Ying hurriedly came out to act as the host, "Everyone who passes by, please stop and take a look. This is our company's new product, fitness pants. No matter how old you are, no matter what your figure is, put on our pants, you are a beauty!" Lin

Lianhua and her sister-in-law curled their lips when they heard it.

But the people around were quite excited. At a trade show, everyone behaved properly and shouted through a loud speaker, but this booth actually had a fashion show and music.

Lin Lu shouted, "Order 100 pieces now and get 8 free. First come, first served. Only the first 50 people who place an order can get it!"

"8 free for 100 pieces is not bad, but 100 pieces is too much."

A female boss with a purse on her waist couldn't help but come forward and look at the girls and sisters walking on the catwalk. She seemed to be tempted.

Liang Ying had her own little thoughts. She specially selected these girls with long and thin legs. When they wore black fitness pants, their legs were so beautiful.

This gave people the illusion that I could do it even if I did it.

"Boss, one hundred pieces is really not a lot. We are the only one in Beijing that produces this type of pants. If you take them back and sell them, I'm not exaggerating. We can sell fifty pairs a day."

Lin Lu patted her chest and said, "These one hundred pieces will be sold out in two or three days."

"Then if I buy two hundred pieces, will you give me sixteen pairs?"

A fashionable girl next to her asked hurriedly.

Lin Lu was stunned for a moment, but when she saw the excited look on the face of the female boss, she hurriedly said, "Yes, so you should place the order quickly, otherwise this benefit will be gone."

Upon hearing this, the girl immediately placed an order for three hundred pieces without saying a word.

Lin Lu was overjoyed and quickly registered the order and took the deposit according to the order amount.

Sometimes people just like to join in the fun when doing business. Seeing so many people placing orders here, many people are afraid of missing the opportunity, so they come here to place orders, with a minimum order of 100 pieces, just to get a little bargain.

In the whole afternoon, after Sister Cai and others finished the show, Liang Ying and her friends received more than 3,000 orders.

After deducting the cost, Liang Ying can make at least 60,000 this time.

Lin Lu and her waist bags were bulging with money. The two of them quickly called Gu Jinshui and Shanhu to come over, gave them the money to take home, and then took Sister Cai and her friends to eat out and paid them wages.

They ate at Donglaishun.

Liang Ying was very generous. She ordered 20 plates of mutton and let everyone order whatever they wanted. Sister Cai and the others felt embarrassed. Sister

Cai said, "Sister Liang, why did we come here? So many people must eat hundreds of meals!"

Liang Ying smiled and said, "Sister Cai, you have worked hard for our company today. If I don't reward you well, would I still be a human being? You eat as much as you want. If anyone saves money for me today, I will be angry."

Sister Cai and the others couldn't help laughing.

I have seen many leaders who are stingy, but I have never seen such a generous leader.

Sister Cai said, "Well, if that's the case, let's shamelessly eat at the rich man's house today. Sister Liang, will we still have a fashion show tomorrow?"

"Yes, why not?"

Liang Ying didn't expect such a small idea to have such a good effect.

She saw many people from the stalls coming to take a look, and she guessed that someone would definitely copy them tomorrow. This kind of thing can't be prevented, and she was too lazy to care. "You go back and have a good rest tonight. Tomorrow we will buy you clothes and find a makeup artist to do your makeup and take photos. How to maintain it?"

"Really?!"

Everyone was overjoyed.

No one had ever experienced this before, and they were all excited and curious.

Liang Ying smiled and said, "How can this be false? Anyway, you go back and prepare well. Starting tomorrow, we will count one hundred a day!"

Everyone was getting happier. After eating the mutton hotpot happily, Liang Ying even asked the store to pack two kilograms of mutton for each person to take home. It was a little bit of a gift.

Then, she didn't have time to celebrate this victory, so she quickly asked Lin Lu to pick out some new styles of clothes for her from the store. She would cover all the expenses. When she got home, she asked her mother-in-law to contact the makeup artist and photographer overnight.

He Chunlian has been filming for so many years, and the last thing she lacks is these connections.

Moreover, Liang Ying spent a lot of money, and two makeup artists and two photographers were in place at once.

The next day, Liang Ying and her group went to the trade fair first, and saw that the good guys were really rude. The stalls that were well-behaved yesterday were playing music and having catwalks today.

Sister Cai was impatient, and she slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, how can these people behave like this? They are imitating our catwalks!"

When they arrived at the stalls, they found that the situation was even more wrong. Yesterday, the stalls on their left and right were selling furniture, but today they were selling skirts and suits.

Both sides were playing music and having catwalks.

This is so damn unfair.

Lin Lu's face darkened, "Sister-in-law, this is obviously pure-hearted!"

The staff at the two stalls saw them and raised their chins proudly. The meaning was very obvious, we are imitating you, what can you do to me?

Liang Ying couldn't help but get angry. It was okay to learn from them, but was it really necessary to do things so thoroughly that she had to run to their side?

Isn't this just a blatant insult?

Sister Cai and the others were also angry, "Sister Liang, they are too rude. How can they be so shameless!"

The two makeup artists were very open-minded and comforted her, "This is how it is now. Don't talk about you. Even for us, we learned a makeup technique and just did it for an actor today, and someone else learned it tomorrow. There's no way to complain."

"Who says it's not true? For example, we used to go to Tiananmen Square to take photos for people when we had time, and we also taught people how to pose. It didn't take long before our colleagues all learned it and started a price war with us."

The two photographers couldn't help but complain.

When Sister Cai and the others heard this, it seemed that everyone had suffered such a loss.

For a moment, everyone felt a little better.

The makeup artist asked Liang Ying, "Ms. Liang, do you need more help? If not, we will leave now and you can just give us a hundred."

Liang Ying said, "Let's go, why do you want to leave? I need you here, but it's not just a simple makeup."

She is not someone who is willing to suffer a loss. If they just follow the trend, it will be fine, but they have to come here to take advantage of their customer flow. If Liang Ying doesn't come by force, can't she come by soft means? She

called the makeup artist in and said a few words to them. The makeup artist showed a surprised look on her face.

"How about it, can you do it?" Liang Ying asked.

The makeup artist nodded: "That's no problem. Our makeup service also includes styling. However, the salary will have to be increased."

"Of course." Liang Ying was now rich and generous, so she didn't care about such a small amount of money. Moreover, if her method today could work again, the orders attracted would be enough to offset the expenses.

At around ten o'clock,

Lin Lianhua took Song Mei to the trade fair again. She saw that many counters were showing fashion shows, and she couldn't help but smile.

Song Mei said gloatingly, "Sister-in-law, Liang Ying thought she was so smart, but now she is just helping others. I don't think she can come up with anything new today."

"I think so too." Lin Lianhua was jealous of Liang Ying for taking so many orders yesterday. She secretly calculated that with so many orders, Liang Ying could make thousands of dollars, but she only makes a few dozen dollars a month. After returning home, Lin Lianhua cursed Liang Ying several times, hoping that the bosses who placed the orders would change their minds and take the money back. The

two sisters-in-law talked and laughed, waiting to see the excitement.

But when they walked to Liang Ying's counter, they found that something was wrong.

The stall was packed with people, and from time to time they would exclaim,

"These pants are really good. Why don't we get some in, too?"

"This lady is really pretty after dressing up. Look at how she looked just now, and now she looks like this. Who would dare to believe that this is the same person?"

Lin Lianhua and others hurriedly squeezed in. The people around them were impatient, "Why are you squeezing in!"

After finally squeezing in, they saw Liang Ying holding a Polaroid photo and facing everyone. Next to her was Sister Guo, who had been dressed up by a makeup artist. "Look, everyone, our leggings are beautiful for everyone. Just now this lady had a plain face, but now when she walks out, anyone who sees her will wonder which overseas Chinese Taiwanese returned to China."

Everyone laughed.

Although Sister Guo was shy, she didn't say anything. She held her hands in front of her, and she looked really gentle and gentle.

On the other side, the makeup artist had just finished applying makeup to Bai Fangfang, who was bare-faced, and combed her hair into a princess bun, with fluffy bangs in front and a small braid hanging at her left ear. When she went inside and changed into a cashmere sweater and gym pants, many young men stared at her.

Bai Fangfang blushed and lowered her head.

"This is our Bai Fangfang. Everyone has seen that Bai Fangfang was very inconspicuous just now, but now, when she walks out, many young men have to stare at her. Girls, don't hesitate anymore. If you want to be beautiful, buy it quickly!"

Liang Ying was very surprised by the effect.

She secretly decided to give each of the makeup artists a big red envelope.

In fact, the clothes don't have such a big effect. The real effect is the makeup and styling. The makeup artists usually do makeup for actresses. Their skills can be said to be a great transformation!

"If you buy 100 pieces, you will get 8 pieces for free. Hurry up if you want to buy!"

Lin Lu hurriedly shouted.

At once, many people gathered around, "I want 100 pieces!!!"

Lin Lianhua and the others almost pushed them down.

The two looked at the stall in disbelief as it was crowded with people waving money. Song Mei opened her mouth and said, "Are these people crazy? Are these pants so beautiful?!"

In just three days of the exhibition,

Liang Ying brought more than 10,000 orders to the clothing company.

When she brought the money home, the change was scattered on the kang. He Chunlian came over to help count the money. The more she counted, the more unbelievable it became.

She put down the money in her hand and licked her dry lips, "Liang Ying, are all these money really deposits?!"

"Mom, how can this be false? Can I rob a bank?"

Liang Ying joked with a smile.

He Chunlian said, "You made much more money than robbing a bank, my God."

She covered her forehead and leaned back against the wall. "I thought Jinshui made money fast enough, but you made money faster than him!"

Gu Yousi helped count the money, one pile of a hundred, and she said slowly, "Grandma, isn't it good to have money at home?"

"Yes, of course it's good, I was just a little shocked for a moment, is it really so fast to make money in business now?" He Chunlian shook her head. She didn't get much pay for filming a movie, maybe only a few hundred yuan for a movie.

This amount of money is already a lot compared to ordinary people.

But in front of two capable children at home, this little money is just pocket money.

"This is also thanks to my wife's intelligence, she can come up with so many ideas!"

Gu Jinshui's mouth was as sweet as honey, and his face was full of pride, "Look at other people's wives, can they have this ability?"

Liang Ying couldn't help laughing, "Stop talking nonsense, count the money quickly, I have to buy fabric tomorrow."

They also have troubles with too many orders, that is, not enough manpower.

Liang Ying set a time of one month for people to deliver the goods. If the goods cannot be delivered within one month, then there will be trouble.

Liang Ying calculated that if it really doesn't work, then she can subcontract the order, or let Guan Daya and their clothing factory help.

Anyway, no one will go against money.

His wife was making a lot of money, and Gu Jinshui was also somewhat moved.

This morning, he heard that some blue and white porcelain plates were sold at the Jinsong market stall, and Gu Jinshui was itching to go there, so he hurriedly took a taxi. When

he got there, he saw that the place was crowded with people, and many people came to join in the fun.

Gu Jinshui looked for the one selling blue and white porcelain plates along the way, but there is a saying that goes, "If you plant flowers with care, they may not bloom, but if you plant willows by accident, they may grow into shades."

He originally intended to go for the blue and white porcelain plates, but he saw a stall that actually had several black-glazed teacups.

The black-glazed teacups were glittering, and the golden patterns sparkled in the sunlight, giving off a sense of ancient simplicity and tranquility.

The stall owner squatted on the ground with his hands folded, looking around boredly.

Several people squatted around to look at the teacups, but none of them took a chance.

Some said they only took a glance at them, while others shook their heads and said nothing. In short, whoever believed that these things were real would be an idiot.

A foreigner took a fancy to the three black-glazed teacups and immediately became interested. He squatted down and asked, "What's the price?"

Gu Jinshui's heart lifted when he heard that.

Beijing people all know that foreigners are famous for being rich and willing to spend money. If these three black-glazed teacups were bought by this foreigner, how much would it cost to buy them back?

But if I rushed up and snatched things from that foreigner, it would be even more inappropriate. First of all, it would break the first-come-first-served rule. Secondly, if the two of them started arguing, the stall owner would definitely raise the price. It is possible that he would find out that those teacups were sold at a high price and would not be sold later. Wouldn't that be fun?

Gu Jinshui was worried. He glanced and suddenly saw a group of people. They were old acquaintances, Song Jianshe and Guo Pu.

This group of people were standing in front of a big boss. There were several blue and white porcelain plates on the newspaper in front of the big boss, all of which were either damaged or bruised.

Gu Jinshui would have rolled his eyes when he saw this group of people at other times, but when he saw them this time, he felt that this might be an opportunity for him.

It was time for these bastards to serve the motherland. Gu Jinshui rolled his eyes and squeezed over without saying hello.

Song Jianshe, who was squeezed out, was about to curse, but when he turned around and saw it was him, his face immediately darkened, "Why are you here?"

"I was just about to ask how I could see you here as well."

Gu Jinshui deliberately raised his voice, "Don't you follow me on purpose? You know I want to buy blue and white porcelain plates, so you come here to steal them."

Their voices were so loud that the foreigner next to them, who was originally picking up a black-glazed teacup, couldn't help but look over.

He obviously knew Chinese very well, and his eyes involuntarily fell on the blue and white porcelain plate on the ground, with some doubts in his eyes.

Although these porcelain plates were blue and white, they were all damaged pieces, and their shapes were twisted and crooked, looking like later imitations. Why would these people quarrel over something that was obviously a fake?
