Xiangnan found Uncle Zhang’s cousin Chen Xin. His shop was a few doors away from the vegetable market and it was a good spot.
Chen Xin’s shop sells a lot of things, including seasonings, oil, vinegar, salt, peanuts, star anise, cumin, tea, sweet potato flour, eggs, and flour, all related to cooking.
Xiangnan explained his purpose to him, saying that Uncle Zhang had introduced it to him. He then introduced bean curd sheets to him again and gave him a bottle of braised bean curd sheets to try.
Chen Xin said without hesitation: "Sure, if you have bean curd sheets, just bring them to me to sell. How much you can sell depends on your fortune."
Since he doesn’t have to pay for the costs himself, Chen Xin is very willing to sell some new products.
Chen Xinneng was one of the first people to rent a storefront in the vegetable market, and it was obvious that he was a visionary.
After Xiangnan reached an agreement with him, he smiled and said, "Brother Chen, I think you are also foresighted. Why don't you rent a few more storefronts?"
Chen Xin shook his head: "How can we sell so many things if we rent more storefronts?"
Xiangnan glanced at the shops next to him and said, "These shops haven't been rented yet. Brother Chen, let's make a deal. If I rent these two shops next to me, can you help me keep an eye on them?
I will pay you a salary every month, and I will also give you a commission on the products you sell."
Chen Xin became interested when he heard this: "What a good thing! Tell me how to do it."
Xiangnan didn't have enough money to rent all the remaining storefronts, but she still had enough money to rent two or three more.
By renting this place, she can also sell the cakes, braised dishes, bean curd sheets, eggs, chickens, etc. she makes.
What she suffered from was that she had no manpower. The three brothers of the Li You and Huo family were all from the countryside, so it was not realistic to ask them to come to the county. The most important thing was that they had to find a house to live in the county.
The storefront here is less than five square meters, so it's impossible to live in it.
Renting a house would be very expensive.
"I'll bring the stuff over here, and you'll help me sell it. I'll pay you ten dollars a month plus a 1% commission.
That is to say, if you help me sell 100 yuan in a month, you can add 1 yuan, and if you sell 1,000 yuan, you can add 10 yuan.
The more you sell, the more you get. Don't underestimate this one percent commission, it may be higher than your basic salary of ten yuan.
Even if you don't sell much, the ten yuan salary alone can provide you with security, and you can still run your own store."
Xiangnan thought about renting two shops to sell bean curd sheets and other things, and she would only need to come and take stock of the goods when she came to the county town.
As for why I trust Chen Xin, it is because Chen Xin’s shop is right next door and I am not afraid that he will run away.
He is from the county town, and his cousin is Uncle Zhang.
She believed in her own judgment of people. Chen Xin was a talented person, and talented people must be kept as long as possible.
Those who can smell business opportunities in this great era are talented.
Li You is, and so is Chen Xin.
Chen Xin asked her in confusion, "You can see that there are only a few people in this market. You're probably losing money on rent for this storefront. How dare you rent it?"
Xiangnan smiled and said, "It's okay if I lose money, I can make it back somewhere else anyway.
But if this market develops and I don’t rent here in advance, I will probably regret it later.”
Chen Xin thought about it and realized that bean curd sheets were only one yuan per pound and were a rare commodity. He was in a unique business and if he could sell 100 pounds a month, he could earn one yuan more.
This is a sure-win business, and most importantly, you can take care of your own business.
Chen Xin readily signed a three-year agreement with Xiangnan.
Chen Xin also took Xiangnan to the market management and rented two shops next to him, both of which had good stalls.
The price of a shop is not expensive, ten yuan a month, and two storefronts are twenty yuan.
Xiangnan handed all the keys to the shop to Chen Xin: "I'll bring some stuff to sell in a few days."
When passing by those closed shops on the way back, Xiangnan felt that they were piles of gold waving at him.
Xiangnan was even wondering whether he could get a loan and whether it was easy to get a loan now.
Xiangnan left the market reluctantly.
She hadn't been to town to sell her clothes for a few days, so when she passed through town today, she set up her stall at the market place.
Last time she bought a batch of very beautiful skirts and accessories, and she had wanted to sell them for a long time, but unfortunately she had too much to do.
"Xiangnan, you haven't been here for a long time! Now that Li You helps you sell cakes, you rarely come here." Xiao Hong from the supply and marketing cooperative came wearing a skirt she bought from her.
She was smiling and very satisfied with her skirt. She was going to buy another one to wear today.
She no longer likes her old clothes. After putting them on, she no longer feels the same way about wearing this skirt.
When she put on this dress, she felt particularly confident and felt that she was more beautiful than others.
“I’ve been a bit busy these past few days, I’ll keep selling skirts and will come when I have time.
I went to the county a few days ago and bought another batch. Sister Xiao, would you like to choose one?"
