"Deputy Battalion Commander Li, thank you for your hard work these past two days." Tang Wanning said again, "If it's convenient, we'd like to treat you to dinner tonight."
"No, no, this is my job." Li Xuewen refused without thinking, "If it's all right, I'll leave first."
Looking at Li Xuewen who was walking away in a hurry, Tang Wanning didn't force him anymore. After all, she couldn't force him even if she wanted to, because the person had already walked away.
Besides, if the other person doesn't want to go, she can't force him to go.
Tang Wanning looked at Su Meijuan and smiled brightly, "Mom, I'll keep this money for myself. It will be useful when I go to buy supplies later."
"OK."
This was originally her daughter's money, and Su Meijuan had never thought of taking it.
"Then let's go to the wholesale market now?" Tang Wanning glanced at the luggage. "Since we're staying here tonight, let's leave the luggage here."
"Okay, since it's still early, let's go early and come back early."
Because the location of the troops was a bit remote and the wholesale market was in the center of the provincial capital, it took Tang Wanning and Su Meijuan more than an hour to get there by car.
Looking at the crowds of people in the wholesale market, Su Meijuan was stunned. "Is this...this wholesale market's business so good? There are people everywhere."
"Of course, things are different now than they were a few years ago," Tang Wanning explained with a smile. "Mom, think about it, even in Taoyuan Village now, everyone can basically eat three solid meals a day. It's not like before, when the porridge was so thin that you could see your reflection in it."
Su Meijuan thought about it and realized that Cui Guobing's family, who were the poorest in the village a few years ago, can now have three meals a day. You know, Cui Guobing's family could hardly guarantee two meals a day before.
"That's true, but everyone is barely able to eat now. Are you really willing to spend so much money on clothes, shoes, and other things?"
Tang Wanning nodded affirmatively. "Mom, you don't know. I had a classmate who skipped breakfast and lunch every day just to save money for a new dress. If she hadn't fainted from hunger in class, none of us would have known about it."
Although Su Meijuan felt puzzled as to why someone would go hungry every day just for a piece of clothing, she also understood that girls all love beauty.
Even though they didn't have the conditions before, they would try their best to create the conditions to buy new clothes, not to mention that life is getting better and better now.
Su Meijuan nodded heavily, "Let's go in."
As soon as the mother and daughter entered, they saw a series of small houses, which contained a full range of goods including clothing, shoes, small sundries, stationery, toys, etc.
Su Meijuan couldn't help but be dazzled by the sight. Looking at these brightly colored clothes, they were really pleasing to the eye.
Not to mention a young girl, even she would want to buy it if she saw it.
This idea undoubtedly strengthened Su Meijuan's confidence.
After walking into a women's clothing store, Su Meijuan saw a floral dress. She couldn't take her eyes off it at first sight.
"Ningning, this dress will definitely look good on you. The pattern is fresh and it suits you very well. Mommy will buy you one."
Tang Wanning followed her mother's gaze and immediately saw the sleeveless floral dress. The dress was bright yellow in color, dotted with white florals, giving it a fresh and elegant look.
Unexpectedly, my mother had such good taste. It just so happened that Tang Wanning also liked it. Before she could say anything, the salesperson who had just seen off a customer came over to greet her.
The salesperson said with a smile, "Do you two like this dress? You have good taste. This is a new style that arrived today. Just now, that old customer took away more than 20 at once. Each one is only 12 yuan. You can sell it for double the amount. And these few styles are also very popular this year..."
Listening to the little girl's words, Su Meijuan's heart beat like an accelerator.
Although she rarely buys clothes in recent years, Bai Zhaodi said a few days ago that her daughter spent 28 on a dress.
Even though the styles are different, the most expensive dress in this store is only 15 yuan.
This is simply huge profits!
At this moment, Su Meijuan looked at these clothes with a fiery look, as if they were no longer clothes, but gold.
No wonder everyone says that there is gold everywhere in the South. I haven’t even been to the South yet, just the provincial capital, and there is already gold everywhere.
Su Meijuan excitedly tugged at Tang Wanning's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Ningning, let's take some clothes back to sell. These styles will definitely sell well."
Seeing his mother's transformation, Tang Wanning smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. It turned out that money really gives people courage.
"Okay, let's pick out a few more styles, just five or six of each. After all, our funds are limited, and I also need to wholesale some nylon socks and sneakers."
After thinking for a moment, Su Meijuan said, "It's okay to take less of each style. As long as there are many styles, there will always be one that the customer likes."
"I'll see if I can bargain again later. Mom, remember to cooperate with me."
When Su Meijuan heard the word "bargain", her eyes lit up.
Now it can be sold for double the price. If you can bargain for a lower price, won’t you make more money?
"Okay, just perform and I'll help you."
After the mother and daughter discussed it, Tang Wanning pointed to a shirt-style blue and white checkered dress and asked, "Sister, how much is this?"
The salesperson smiled and said, "This is a shirt-style dress. Not only does it have the collar and cuffs of a shirt, but it also has a belt at the waist. The style is not only casual but also elegant. That's why it's a bit more expensive, 14 yuan."
Tang Wanning frowned slightly, a look of embarrassment on her face. "Miss, can you make it cheaper? We don't have much money on us. Before leaving this time, we even borrowed money from all our relatives and friends."
The salesperson felt nothing when she heard Tang Wanning's words. After all, she had worked in the store for two or three years and had seen all kinds of people.
For example: "Beautiful lady, I have an 80-year-old mother and a 3-year-old baby at home, and they all depend on me. Can you give me a discount on the purchase price?"
"Beautiful lady, the money I brought with me this time was collected from every household in our village. This money is the hope of our entire village. Could you please be kind and give me a discount?"
"Sister, my parents despised me for getting a divorce and it was shameful. My sister-in-law despised me for eating for free at home and kicked me out. I earned all this money by moving bricks at the construction site after I was kicked out. So this batch of payment is my only chance. Can you have pity on me and charge me a lower purchase price?"
......
The salesperson has heard countless words like this.
Not to mention that she is just a salesperson, even if she is the boss, there are so many poor people in the world and she can't help them all.
