Chapter 40: Big Deal
But Bai Fengzhu has had a lot of worries recently. The store doesn't have much stock, and she has to keep some for sale, so she can't provide them with so many goods.
After discussing it, Shen Yan and Song Weiwei decided to go to Huating Road to purchase goods.
After arriving at Huating Road, they found that Lin Youxing also had only a small amount of stock.
He can only offer a maximum of 500 items.
The new batch of goods is still on the way and will not arrive until tomorrow.
This amount of goods is not enough to sell!
The stall owner next to Lin Youxing spotted the two girls, Shen Yan and Song Weiwei.
They come here to get goods every day, especially the beautiful Chen Yan, it’s always her.
There are especially many people coming on Sunday.
If we can develop them into customers, wouldn’t that be a long-term and stable business?
Boss Lin is out of stock now, isn’t this a perfect opportunity!
Such opportunities are rare, and once missed, they may never come back.
She waved at Shen Yan, "Hey, beautiful girl, Boss Lin doesn't have that many goods, come and see how mine is."
Lin Youxing smiled and said to the stall owner next to him: "Boss Zhong, why are you still stealing my customers?"
The stall owner surnamed Zhong waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm not in the business of stealing your pants."
"You sell your pants, I sell my shirt, we don't conflict."
Lin Youxing pointed at Boss Zhong and said angrily, "Then you must give these friends of mine the best price. They are my friends!"
Shen Yan noticed that Boss Zhong was selling denim jackets at his stall.
Unlike other types of clothing, denim series tend to attract more attention from young people.
It's already the end of June and Shanghai is about to enter its hottest season.
Rolling out thick or less breathable clothing is not the best option at this time.
The difficulty in selling denim jackets is to make customers look fashionable while also keeping them cool.
Being fashionable is easy, but being cool at the same time is a bit difficult.
Unless the jacket itself is light and breathable.
This requires designers to be very careful in the selection of fabrics and styles.
They only sell jeans now, in a single style.
This makes it difficult to create enough appeal to attract more customers with different needs.
If we could stock up on some denim tops, especially ones that can be paired with jeans, maybe jeans would become even more popular!
The key to selling a denim jacket lies in how you sell it.
Shen Yan took Song Weiwei into the shop next door and said to the owner of the shop with a smile: "Boss Zhong, I want a style with short sleeves, soft texture and high cotton content."
When Boss Zhong heard this, he knew in his heart that Shen Yan was a knowledgeable and discerning person, and responded enthusiastically: "I happen to have a few suitable ones here, let me show you."
The boss's name was Zhong Huijie. She skillfully picked out a few denim tops from the shelf nearby and showed them to Chen Yan one by one.
While showing them, he explained, "We design, select and produce these denim tops ourselves. Every step is carefully considered to ensure the finished product meets consumer demand."
Although she was curious about Shen Yan's outstanding beauty, Zhong Huijie still introduced her own products seriously.
She rubbed the fabric in her hands repeatedly, then said, "Look, our material is very good. It contains 90% cotton. You can feel its softness. It is really comfortable."
In order to prove her words, Boss Zhong squeezed the cloth in her hand hard, and the cloth quickly returned to its original shape in her hand.
Shen Yan was also attracted. She reached out and touched the material. It really felt very good, smooth and soft.
However, after a closer look, she found that the design of the clothes was somewhat unsatisfactory.
Although this top is a short-sleeved style, it is actually quite long and looks a bit bulky.
Shen Yan tried to put on one of the clothes for a try-on. When she stood in front of the mirror, she found that the clothes were almost up to her crotch.
Considering the hot and humid climate in the south, such a design is obviously not suitable for summer wear.
If you really wear it in summer, it will probably make people feel even hotter.
However, the careful Shen Yan also noticed that the hem of the clothes could be tied to adjust the length.
Customers can wear the denim top on its own, pair it with a bright red vest underneath, or choose a white or khaki vest as an inner layer.
Wouldn’t it be more fashionable if there were some cropped denim tops that were more suitable for summer and could be paired with loose pants, long skirts or shorts?
Shen Yan took off the denim top she had just tried on and put it back where it belonged. "Boss, do you have a slightly shorter style?"
As she spoke, she looked at the owner expectantly.
If there is a short version, customers don’t have to go through the trouble of tying the clothes.
She secretly decided in her heart that she would never buy goods with obvious defects.
Boss Zhong listened to Shen Yan's words and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, "There is one! Wait a minute!"
She rummaged through the dazzling pile of clothes and finally found a special top. She quickly unfolded it and showed it to Shen Shu, "This one is indeed shorter in length and should better suit your needs."
Shen Yan took the clothes and couldn't wait to try them on.
Sure enough, this dress is shorter than the previous one, but it still stays below the navel.
This design makes the clothes neither too revealing nor too revealing, yet it can show off the advantages of the figure.
This dress should be very popular in the market.
If you match according to the idea just mentioned, there is no need to adjust the length of the clothes by folding or tying the hem.
This not only improves the convenience of wearing, but also makes the overall style more natural and smooth.
"Boss, how much do you want to wholesale this type of clothing?" Shen Yan nodded with satisfaction and began to inquire about the wholesale price.
After some bargaining, they finally agreed on a price of 11 yuan per denim jacket.
However, considering that this was our first attempt to sell this type of product, we did not place a large order.
Finally, the two decided to purchase 150 pieces as a pilot sale.
Before leaving, Shen Yan turned around and asked Zhong Huijie, who had been busy sorting out the bills, "Boss Zhong, are all the clothes you sell here produced by yourselves?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, she continued, "If I want to find you to customize a batch of clothes of a specific style, would you consider accepting the order?"
Hearing this, Zhong Huijie stopped what he was doing and a smile appeared on his face.
Shen Yan's question surprised her a little, "Of course you can take orders, but there is a prerequisite, that is, the quantity of the order must meet a certain standard."
"So what's the exact quantity?" Shen Yan asked.
She knew that her family's small workshop did not have enough manpower and material resources to support large-scale production.
They usually produce and sell their own products. If the orders they accept each time are too small, it is not cost-effective considering the cost.
Therefore, the prerequisite for accepting orders is to ensure a certain amount of orders.
