Chapter 53: Bringing Goods Back (Additional Update 2)
Of course Mu Chenze would not admit that he was the fool.
"I forgot to ask that idiot's name. It's only a little after 4 in the morning. If we want to take the bus, we'll have to wait another hour or two. How about we take some goods back from the city to sell?"
Chu Xuan was a little tempted, "What kind of goods should we get?"
I just received three hundred yuan, so I have money to buy some goods.
Mu Chenze whispered, "I have a friend who has a batch of Dacron women's shirts. We can buy some of them together."
In this era, Dacron shirts are very popular.
Chu Xuan nodded in agreement without saying a word.
More than twenty minutes later, Mu Chenze led Chu Xuan into a secluded courtyard.
Mu Chenze grabbed the door knocker and knocked gently three times.
Soon, someone came to open the door.
Mu Chenze had reminded him in advance, but Chu Xuan did not take the initiative to talk to him. Instead, he waited quietly outside the door.
Mu Chenze walked in and came out carrying a sack about ten minutes later.
The gate of the courtyard closed immediately afterwards.
Chu Xuan could see that this family was very cautious.
After walking a distance, Chu Xuan asked quietly, "How many items did you get in?"
Mu Chenze whispered back, "100 pieces. They're all women's shirts, and the purchase price is 6 yuan each. We can sell them for 10 yuan in the county town, and there will definitely be a lot of people buying them."
Chu Xuan got excited just thinking about it.
If all 100 pieces are sold, the net profit will be 400 yuan, which will be divided 50-50, so they will each get 200 yuan.
"Shall we get some good stuff from the city every few days and sell it back?"
Mu Chenze was eager to do so. "No problem."
The answer was so clear and concise that Chu Xuan looked at him with an inquiring look.
"Mu Chenze, did you often do this kind of thing before?"
Mu Chenze spoke frankly, "Not often. It happens occasionally. This time it just happened by chance."
Chu Xuan's eyes fell on Mu Chenze's pocket.
"You carry a lot of cash with you every day, right? Actually, you don't have to be in partnership with me; you can still buy goods and sell them back. You're helping me in disguise."
Mu Chenze refused to admit it. "Who helped you in disguise? I just found someone to share the risk with me. Risk and profit go hand in hand. If everything is sold, we both make money. If it doesn't sell, we both lose money. Don't think too highly of me."
Seeing that he didn't admit it, Chu Xuan smiled helplessly, "Alright! Good buddy, we should go to the bus station to catch the bus."
"good!"
If we rush to the bus station now, we might be able to catch the first bus.
On the way, Chu Xuan offered to carry the bag of shirts for a while, but Mu Chenze refused on the grounds that it was not heavy at all.
After rushing for a while, they finally caught the first bus to the county town.
After getting on the bus, there happened to be two adjacent seats, so Mu Chenze stuffed the sack of shirts under the seats.
Chu Xuan took out breakfast from the sack in his hand, which was a meat-stuffed bun made by his younger brother, and gave three to Mu Chenze.
Mu Chenze was indeed hungry and ate voraciously.
Well……
Choked.
Chu Xuan handed over the kettle.
Mu Chenze took it and drank a few sips of water without thinking.
He is the kind of man who always forgets to bring a kettle even though he knows he might choke while eating.
After drinking it, he realized that he had used Chu Xuan's water bottle, and his face turned red instantly.
"I'm sorry! You can't drink it like this."
Chu Xuan smiled generously, "This is specially brought for you. I have it myself."
He pulled another kettle out of the sack and waved it.
At this moment, Mu Chenze felt warm in his heart, realizing that Chu Xuan noticed that he never brought a water bottle, so he specially prepared one for him.
"Thanks!"
"Thank you for what? We are brothers."
"good."
Mu Chenze continued to eat the meat buns.
After finishing the meal, Chu Xuan's eyes fell on the watch on the ticket seller's wrist.
Mu Chenze seemed to see what she was thinking, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "I'll find someone to help me exchange two watches. You can get one and I'll get one."
Nowadays, you can’t buy a watch just by having money, and sometimes you have to wait for a long time.
Chu Xuan really needed a watch, "Okay."
After more than an hour, we arrived at the county town.
After getting off the bus, they went straight to the morning market.
I found an open space against the wall to set up my stall.
Chu Xuan saw Mu Chenze take out nails, ropes, and clothes hangers from the sack and gave him a thumbs up. "Great! You're really thoughtful."
After the praise, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that Mu Chenze was very familiar with the situation...
Mu Chenze picked up a stone from the roadside and hammered a nail into the wall. One meter away, he hammered another nail.
Chu Xuan pulled the rope with him, picked out three shirts of different styles, stretched them with clothes hangers, and hung them on the rope.
He was hanging things up and shouting, "Shirts for sale! New Dacron shirts!"
Mu Chenze did not shout along.
Chu Xuan confirmed the price with Mu Chenze again, "Are you really selling it for ten dollars? How about one for eleven dollars, two for twenty dollars, or three for thirty dollars?"
"That's a great idea! Let's sell it this way!"
With Mu Chenze's encouragement, Chu Xuan shouted loudly, "Dacron shirts are eleven yuan each, twenty-one yuan for two, and thirty yuan for three! If you want to buy them cheap, quickly call your friends and family to come and buy them together!"
Soon, a slim woman came over.
"Fat Ni, I'm your first customer, right? Can you give me a discount, ten dollars a piece?"
Chu Xuan said generously, "Since you are our first customer, I'll charge you ten yuan each! Take your pick."
The woman happily picked one, paid for it, and left satisfied.
After the store opened, people came in groups of three or four to ask prices and look at clothes.
Some girls did like the shirts, but some were reluctant to buy them, after all, a shirt was worth ten days' salary.
Regardless of whether they bought anything or not, Chu Xuan greeted them with a smile. Mu Chenze, on the other hand, found a rock to sit down and rest.
Because he thought Chu Xuan was good at business, he only needed to be responsible for keeping the shirt from being stolen.
The morning market is next to the water plant, flour mill, noodle factory, and pharmaceutical factory. When the female workers get off their night shifts soon, they should be able to sell quite a few items.
Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze both knew this very well.
As soon as seven o'clock arrived, female workers who had just finished their night shift came to the morning market one after another, and female workers who were preparing to start their early shift also passed by.
Many of them stopped in front of Chu Xuan’s stall.
I want to buy them all.
Several people bought it together and got it for ten yuan each.
More than 30 pieces were sold quickly.
Even the girls who had hesitated to buy just now gritted their teeth and bought one each.
In less than an hour and a half, sixty pieces were sold.
The investment has been recovered.
The spending power of female workers should never be underestimated.
Fewer and fewer people go to the morning market.
Mu Chenze stood up and said, "Let's pack up the stall and go back."
There's no point in keeping it on display any longer. I've already bought everything I needed.
Chu Xuan did as he was told immediately.
After finishing the cleaning, Chu Xuan counted out three hundred yuan and stuffed it into Mu Chenze's hand, "divide it first, and the rest will be our profit when we sell it."
Mu Chenze did not refuse and put the money into his pocket.
"We'll go to town and set up a stall later."
"good."
Chu Xuan has already thought of a place to sell the shirts.
They each carried a sack and went to the nearby bus stop to wait for the bus.
Just as they reached the bus stop, Chu Xuan suddenly pushed Mu Chenze and said, "Turn your back to me and move forward. No matter what happens, don't show up."
Mu Chenze was confused, but still did as he was told.
I plan to ask again later.
But he had just taken a few steps when he heard a familiar and annoying voice.
"Big Fatty Xuan, did you just come back from selling grilled fish fillets? Aren't you a country bumpkin that the city people dislike?"
