Wholesale markets usually open early.
The next day, just after dawn, Lu Xingfei took Wang Youyou to the Hedong Wholesale Market to purchase goods.
There were many more people at the wholesale market this time than the last time I came. It was so crowded that it was impossible to squeeze in.
Those who come to wholesale include not only local vendors, but also clothing dealers from other places.
Wang Youyou has her eyes on a manufacturer that specializes in producing underwear.
She mainly took men's shorts, spending 150 yuan. There are fewer fat people in this era, so 70% of her purchases were medium sizes, 10% were large sizes, and the remaining 20% were small sizes.
For women, just get a medium size for fifty bucks.
After picking up the goods, many shops on the street opened one after another.
They also bought two small retractable tables, a piece of floral cloth, and two small chairs, spending a total of twenty dollars.
Wang Youyou recorded all these accounts in a small notebook.
Finally, they chose to set up a stall on Zhengkang Street.
Wang Youyou was attracted by the location at the entrance of the alley. There was a young man in his twenties selling goods on the street next to her. He mainly sold daily necessities, small flashlights, small batteries, small mirrors and so on.
"Hello, I'm here to set up a stall too. Is there anyone selling anything here?" Wang Youyou asked politely.
Seeing that the man had gotten out of a jeep, the young man politely replied, "Yes, there is, but the space is so big, it's okay for you to put it there."
Wang Youyou smiled gently and asked, "Thank you. My name is Wang Youyou. What should I call you?"
The young man smiled brightly and replied, "My name is Li Zhijun. Sister, what are you selling?"
"Selling shorts!" Wang Youyou saw that the other party was very talkative and generously promoted it. "Hey! I have your size here! Come and take a look later!"
"Okay!" Li Zhijun didn't think she was selling anything. Instead, he felt that her smile was very friendly, her voice was neither rough nor soft, and her tone was gentle. She sounded comfortable and trustworthy.
He thought her personality should be easy-going and cheerful.
When he wanted to go forward to help, a tall and handsome man got out of the jeep.
Beneath the man's handsome appearance, there is a strong sense of majesty and coldness, and it is obvious that he is a leader.
He felt disappointed and thought that since the other person had someone to help him, he should not meddle in other people's business.
Lu Xingfei helped Wang Youyou move the things down.
She also helped Wang Youyou set up two small tables, covered them with floral cloth, and went across the street to buy two big meat buns for Wang Youyou.
After doing all this, he hurried back to the army.
"Wang Youyou, I'll go to the cafeteria to get you lunch at noon. Just wait for me."
"Okay, go ahead and get busy!"
Wang Youyou was completely focused on setting up her stall.
She was eating breakfast while arranging the goods.
There aren’t many items priced at two hundred yuan, but when they are displayed, they still look presentable.
The reason why she chose to mainly sell men's underwear was that when she was shopping here the day before yesterday, she found that several men asked their companions why there were no men's underwear for sale here.
Half of the female workers in the factory behind are married women, and married women have a simpler life.
After get off work, I will buy anything that is cheap, convenient and practical.
There is also a living area behind Zhengkang Street, where housewives also come out to shop.
As she expected, as soon as she put it out, an old lady came.
The aunt stood in front of the stall, staring at the shorts on the stall, thinking that the little girl was new to the stall and she had never seen this little girl before even though she passed by every day.
Wang Youyou greeted her warmly, "Auntie, have you had breakfast? Are you interested in men's or women's clothing? It's my first day at the stall, so how about giving you a discount?"
Seeing that she was sincere, the aunt touched the material.
It was Wang Youyou’s first time selling goods, and she was a little nervous.
But she still pretended to be very experienced and said, "Auntie, the men's style is 50 cents each. The material is wide enough, so two will cost you 48 cents each."
There is one advantage of buying things from small vendors: you don’t need a ticket. Auntie likes to buy things from small vendors the most.
She nodded expressionlessly and said, "Take these two."
After saying that, she took out a dollar from her wallet.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Wang Youyou took the dollar with both hands and gave the change to the auntie in the form of four one-cent coins.
He then folded the two pairs of men's trousers that the aunt had picked out and put them in her basket.
"Auntie, take care! I'm Wang Youyou. If you want to buy women's clothing next time, I have them too."
"Okay, go ahead and do your thing."
The aunt was originally serious, but when she saw Wang Youyou's good service attitude, she couldn't help but smile.
Li Zhijun next to him was extremely envious.
He walked over and said with a smile: "Big sister, you are really good! You just set up your stall and it's already open. I set up my stall before dawn and it's not even open yet!"
Wang Youyou pushed the small chair over and said, "Sit down, Brother Zhijun. Is there anything you want to buy? I'll go take a look at your goods later."
Just as Li Zhijun was about to sit down, he saw a three-wheeled motorcycle parked nearby.
He didn't get along with the man driving the three-wheeled motorcycle. If it weren't for this good position, he would have wanted to stay away from that man.
He didn't sit down and said to Wang Youyou, "I'm going back."
"Okay." Wang Youyou nodded and continued to look at the street.
Then, a loud voice rang in her ears: "Hey! Why are you standing here? Don't you know this is my place?"
"Your seat?" Wang Youyou was confused. Is there a fixed seat for street vendors now?
She had to explain: "I'm sorry, I didn't know this was your seat, so I'll move it for you!"
The man who was talking to her was a middle-aged man who looked like a landlord bully with a fierce look in his eyes.
