Chapter 95 How can it be impossible?
After handing out flyers, wholesale customers hadn't noticed much, but the store's retail business was clearly picking up. With supplies running out, Gu Jianguo prepared to leave for Shenzhen.
Before going to Shenzhen, he had a sign made with red background and gold letters, which was very eye-catching.
Gu Jianguo and Han Deyi set out for Shenzhen again. This time, their mood was obviously different from the previous times. How to say it, there was more passion.
Both of them are ready to do something big.
Two days after they left Lizhou, the flyers began to take effect, with people constantly coming to the store to inquire about wholesale. Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui wrote down every single one of their requests in a notebook. This would serve as a reference for their stocking requirements.
Business experience is accumulated bit by bit through trial and error.
At noon that day, the two sisters and Gu Xueqiang were having lunch in the store while discussing the issue of stocking. Gu Erhui flipped through the notebook in her hand and said, "There are a total of 30 people who have come to inquire about wholesale, and 10 of them have confirmed that they will take the goods."
Gu Yimin put down his chopsticks and took a pen to do the math on a piece of paper. "If each of the ten customers takes an average of five pieces of each style, that's fifty pieces per style. If we replenish the stock every five days, we'll have at least one hundred pieces of each style for them per week. Add to that our own retail sales, and those customers who aren't sure if they'll be wholesalers, who might come to pick up some goods. I think we'll have at least 200 pieces of each style."
Gu Erhui took the paper she was calculating the bill on and looked at it, then said, "Okay, we'll call Dad this afternoon and ask him to prepare 200 pieces of each style. As for the jeans, let him decide for himself. Anyway, we just need to prepare more."
Gu Xue Qiang was eating and listening to the two sisters' discussion. He didn't say anything. He had been there for a short time and had just come into contact with many things. He didn't understand much, so it was better for him not to say too much.
At this time, the sound of a car was heard at the door. The three brothers and sisters looked towards the door and saw a military vehicle parked there.
The car door opened, and Tong Lu and the two women got out. Because they had a good relationship with Tong Lu, the two sisters stood up and walked to the door to greet them.
In the car outside, Zhuang Xueming, who was sitting in the driver's seat, was stunned when he saw the two sisters of the Gu family. Aren't these the two girls who fought that day?
He and Luo Yongnian went to the city to do some business that day. When they passed by the gymnasium, Luo Yongnian asked him to stop the car and then stared at the two girls.
When they saw someone trying to pick a fight with them, Luo Yongnian eagerly asked him to drive over. He had originally thought that Luo Yongnian would play a hero and save the beauty, but the beauty herself was very strong and beat the harassers to a pulp. The two of them were useless.
Afterwards, he asked Luo Yongnian what his relationship was with the two girls, but the taciturn man refused to say a word. He hadn't expected to see them again today; it was truly fate.
"I'll pick you up in an hour." After shouting to Tong Lu and the others, Zhuang Xueming drove away.
"You haven't eaten yet?" Tong Lu asked when she saw the food on the table.
"We're almost done eating." Gu Yimin said as she and Gu Xueqiang cleared the food on the table, while Gu Erhui greeted Tong Lu and the others.
"These are my two friends," Tong Lu introduced the two women who came with her to Gu Erhui. "This is Wu Fang, and this is Zhao Xue."
Gu Erhui greeted them with a smile, Wu Fang smiled shyly, and Zhao Xue nodded gently.
"They live in the military area. Is there anyone there who sells your goods?" Tong Lu asked.
Gu Erhui knew there was a military district in Lizhou, but didn't know where it was exactly, so she asked, "Where is the military district?"
"It's thirty miles west of Lizhou City."
Gu Erhui shook her head. "Our current customers are all in Lizhou City."
Tong Lu said to Zhao Xue and Wu Fang, "Did you hear that? There's nothing at the military district."
"How much is this dress?" Wu Fang asked, touching a red wool coat.
"The retail price is 45, and the purchase price is 30," Gu Erhui said. Wu Fang thought the clothes were a bit expensive, but she smiled and said nothing. She then asked about other styles of clothes. Gu Erhui smiled and explained them to her one by one.
Zhao Xue remained silent, standing quietly by the side, listening in. Tong Lu, on the other hand, chatted with Gu Yimin, occasionally mentioning Luo Yongnian.
Gu Yimin didn't know if she meant to test him, but she had already decided to give up her feelings for Luo Yongnian, so she naturally wouldn't reveal anything.
After they chatted for a while, customers started coming to the store. The two sisters let Tong Lu and the others look at the clothes in the store by themselves while they greeted other customers.
After this group of customers left, Tong Lu and the others were about to leave as well. But before leaving, Wu Fang asked, somewhat embarrassedly, if she could sell her a woolen coat at wholesale price.
Gu Erhui looked at Tong Lu. If it was someone she didn't know, she would have said no without hesitation. But this person was brought by Tong Lu.
In fact, she and Tong Lu were not particularly close, they just attended night school together and could chat with each other. But Tong Lu seemed to be of a special status, so she first looked at what Tong Lu meant.
It's not that she's snobby; she's a businesswoman, and to thrive, she needs to maintain strong connections. A good relationship with a powerful individual might bring immeasurable benefits. At the same time, a poorly managed relationship with such a person could also lead to immense damage.
Tong Lu felt a little embarrassed after hearing what Wu Fang said. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, they have their own rules when doing business."
Wu Fang blushed, said "I'm sorry" awkwardly, and walked out. At this time, the car that came to pick them up arrived, and the three of them got in.
Zhao Xue sat in the passenger seat and asked Zhuang Xueming with a smile, "Have you finished your work?"
They were an engaged couple, and she spoke with a touch of intimacy. Zhuang Xueming said, "It's done, but you have to go back immediately."
"We've finished our shopping too." Zhao Xue said.
Tong Lu was going back to the military compound, Wu Fang was going to the station, and Zhuang Xueming dropped them off and drove back to the military compound. On the way, he asked Zhao Xue, "How are the two girls in that store?"
Zhao Xue's heart tightened, but she smiled calmly, "Why are you asking about this girl?"
"I think Old Luo has taken a fancy to one of those two girls. Maybe you two can spend more time together in the future." If Luo Yongnian married the girl, they would live together and would naturally spend more time together.
"No way, isn't Luo Yongnian dating Tong Lu?" Zhao Xue asked.
Zhuang Xueming heard her words and said without hesitation: "Impossible, it's absolutely impossible for the two of them."
Zhao Xue was puzzled. "How can it be impossible for them to be together when one of them is unmarried?"
"It's impossible anyway." Zhuang Xueming said it firmly and with a somewhat aggressive tone. Zhao Xue pursed her lips and said nothing.
