Chapter 146 Unique
At this time, Shen Yan came over, handed a few crumpled banknotes to Cao Yangfei, and said to him: "This is the advance payment for you."
Cao Yangfei nodded in agreement, "Okay, I understand!"
The smile on his face couldn't hide the excitement and nervousness.
Then, Shen Yan paid him in cash.
Previously, it only cost 10 yuan to make 100 buy lines. This price is indeed very cheap in the current market, almost the cost price, or even a little bit of a loss.
However, in order to meet the deadline, we can only purchase some emergency supplies at this price.
Now we need to make 400 pieces, so the thread cost is about 50 yuan.
Due to the significant increase in demand, the price has also increased slightly.
Add to that the 10 yuan round trip fare, and if he has to make seven or eight trips, it will cost about 80 yuan - each loading, moving, unloading, and return trip requires time, energy, and cost.
Shen Shuyan gave a total of 150 yuan.
That was part of the funds they raised temporarily, and all of it was used for the initial investment in this project.
She said that this part includes the cost of buying thread, and the remaining thread and material can be used next time. Although the amount is not much, every penny saved counts.
The extra cash can be kept for emergencies, such as encountering an accident along the way, or suddenly needing to purchase tools, which can be used at any time.
As for the labor fee for asking He Xinci to help with sewing, I will pay her tonight.
Everyone knows that she has good skills and is careful in her work, and she is one of the contributors this time.
In this way, Cao Yangfei began to run back and forth between the two venues for transportation.
The distance from the embroidery site to the sales outlet is not too far, but it is still tiring, especially when running around frequently, which consumes a lot of physical energy.
At the same time, Song Weiwei was busy greeting people.
She has a very loud voice and always makes her presence felt in a crowd.
She enthusiastically introduced styles, answered questions, and occasionally had to appease customers who had minor frictions during the selection process.
The business here is booming, and on the other side, Shen Yan is responsible for selling goods and cashiering.
As the general controller, she has an account book at hand, recording the amount of each sale and the flow of expenditure.
But her movements were a little inconvenient, after all, she had been pregnant for some time.
Whenever she bent down to pick up her pants or stood up to give change, she seemed to be struggling.
However, Xu Wenbo would always help out at this time.
He would take the initiative to take over stocking the shelves, making change and even giving suggestions to customers.
Most of the time he is responsible for guarding the place, ensuring that the entire sales process is orderly and free from external interference.
One of his duties is to prevent people from stealing things.
Especially during peak hours, many people gather together to look at goods and try on clothes, which makes it easy for people to take advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation.
In addition, he also has to pay attention to the movements outside the door and predict in advance whether there will be trouble coming.
For example, what should we do if the urban management comes? Will our colleagues nearby have any objections?
This all requires preparation in advance.
And those one hundred pairs of embroidered jeans were so popular!
It was sold out in less than half an hour after it was put on display!
Even passersby who were just there to see the excitement started placing orders after hearing someone say "limited edition".
Their embroidered jeans were sold out, but Cao Yangfei hadn't sent back new stock so quickly.
After all, the production speed of each batch is limited by sewing efficiency and delivery frequency, and it is impossible to make up for the second batch immediately.
Fortunately, the embroidered jeans sold well, and the sales of ordinary jeans without embroidery also increased a lot!
After all, more and more customers are gathering here, people are looking at more and more things and buying more, which naturally stimulates the consumption desire of people around them.
Seeing others buying and wearing them, I felt itchy and couldn't help but buy one too.
This buying trend continued to expand like a snowball, not only making their products a hot topic on the streets, but also inadvertently attracting the attention of more people.
By two o'clock in the afternoon, they had successfully sold one hundred pairs of embroidered jeans and one hundred pairs of plain pants.
Every transaction is filled with enthusiasm and patient explanation, especially the embroidery series, which is deeply loved by young women for its unique design and exquisite handmade patterns.
However, as time went on, sales slowly returned to a more normal level.
Although the crowds are still flowing, customers' attention to products has become more rational and calm, and the previous rush is gone.
Since embroidery styles were no longer a unique highlight in the market, there was no obvious difference between the products of the stall and those of other nearby shops, and its appeal gradually declined.
Customers who were originally queuing up to choose products also began to turn to other stalls, looking for more creative or better-priced products.
More and more customers are willing to compare prices and bargain.
Especially when the prices are a little higher, many buyers will ask for discounts, and will even use their mobile phones to compare the prices of other stalls to negotiate a better transaction price.
Both Shen Yan and Song Weiwei carefully observed these subtle changes while busy.
Whenever someone hesitated to put down the pants in their hands, the two would look at each other, with a hint of worry and thought in each other's eyes.
Seeing the business momentum slowly declining, Song Weiwei held Shen Yan's hand tightly and said anxiously: "Shen Yan, we have to quickly find a way to come up with a very distinctive pair of pants."
Although her voice was lowered, it revealed a firm belief, "Otherwise, if this continues, the customers will be snatched away by others."
“Unique styles are king!”
She added, as if to punctuate her previous point, "As long as our designs are unique enough, customers will be inseparable from us."
"With so many people coming in now, as long as we can catch people's attention and encourage them to buy, we can make money!"
As she spoke, Song Weiwei's face showed a hint of excitement and hope, as if the future blockbuster product was right before her eyes.
In fact, Shen Yan had already thought of these things and did not need to be reminded. She had been constantly thinking about how to achieve differentiation between products.
After all, market competition will not stop, and consumer tastes will not remain unchanged.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, she made a decision - she planned to leave the stall early today and rush to He Xinci to help complete the next rush task.
On the one hand, I can personally check the quality, and on the other hand, I hope to speed up the production progress and gain more time for subsequent replenishment.
Cao Yangfei followed the plan and set out at 1 a.m. to begin delivering the first batch of goods of the day.
He acted quickly and efficiently and had successfully returned to the scene by 1:40.
As soon as he entered the stall, Cao Yangfei gently placed a bundle of pants that had just been packed and neatly sealed with tape on the ground.
After taking a breath, he smiled and said, "Sure enough, they're almost out of stock, right?"
