Acheng and Ahua opened the sack together and took out several pairs of pants from it. They were all blue denim with flared hems.
However, the three siblings did not think that Jiang Yue would like these pants that felt stiff and had a strange style.
"Show them all to me!" Jiang Yue seemed a little excited.
Bell-bottoms, bell-bottoms!
The purpose of her coming to Guangzhou this time was to find bell-bottom pants. Even though no one likes this kind of wide-legged and somewhat sloppy-looking pants now, in a few months, bell-bottom pants will become popular all over the country.
"How many pairs of these pants do you have?"
“They’re all here!” Ajin was a little confused. Is there actually someone who wants to buy these pants?
"Seventy-eight in total!" Ah Hua and Ah Cheng counted them.
"Just calculate how much it costs, I want them all!" Jiang Yue waved her hand.
Ah Jin couldn't believe what he heard and repeated, "You, why don't you think about it again? No one wants these pants, why do you want so many?"
Gu Ye also shook Jiang Yue's hand and asked her with his eyes: "Do you really want to buy it?"
Jiang Yue nodded, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
Gu Ye believed Jiang Yue and stopped asking.
But Ah Jin still looked worried, "Girl, you should reconsider it!"
Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows. "You are a strange person. If I buy your clothes, you will have money, which can be used to repay the loan sharks and treat your mother's illness! But why do you keep asking me to reconsider? Don't you want to sell them to me?"
"Sister, that's not what my brother meant!" Ah Hua was so anxious that she kept jumping up and down, pulling at Ah Jin's clothes, "Brother, sell it!"
Ah Jin gritted his teeth and insisted, "Girl, it's not that I don't want to sell it to you. I want to sell these goods more than anyone else! But I got fooled so badly, I can't hurt you!"
Jiang Yue glanced at Gu Ye, then turned back to look at A Jin and asked, "What do you mean?"
Ah Jin looked bitter, sighed and said, "To be honest, I spent all my money to buy so much because a friend of mine asked for it. I thought I could make a lot of money by reselling it, but after I got the goods, my friend said he didn't want it anymore!"
"It was only later that I found out that it was that bastard who set me up!"
At this point, Jin was furious, but then he took a few deep breaths, suppressed his anger, and continued, "I've inquired about it. This batch of pants was exported abroad, but the labels were not up to standard, so the foreign buyers refused to accept them and returned them. That bastard originally wanted to take them and smuggle them to Hong Kong Island, but I don't know what went wrong and they didn't sell them!"
A Jin paused for a moment, lowered his head and said, "I was harmed by that bastard, and this batch of goods was in my hands, but I can't harm you again!"
"Girl, I've asked around, and these pants aren't popular in our country. You're bound to lose money if you buy them! Forget it, you guys go. I've been cheated myself, and I know how it feels. I can't cheat you again!"
Jiang Yue didn't expect to hear such words from Ajin. A person in a desperate situation could be so kind and unwilling to let others take on his pain. This made her look up to Ajin.
The same is true for Gu Ye.
"Ajin, you don't have to worry about whether I will lose money. I really want to buy these jeans. Just tell me the price! Don't worry about anything else!" Jiang Yue originally just planned that if Ajin's clothes were really what she needed, she could buy them. One reason was that she needed them, and the other was that she could help Acheng's family.
Now Jiang Yue feels that Ajin is a person worth associating with, and plans to do business with Ajin for a long time.
"Brother, my sister looks like a smart person. Now that she said so, why are you still hesitating?" Ah Hua was so anxious that she almost tore Ah Jin's clothes.
Ah Jin hesitated for a moment, but seeing Jiang Yue's sincerity, he finally nodded, "Okay! I bought the goods for eight dollars a piece, just give me the original price!"
"So cheap?" Jiang Yue was shocked. Her short-sleeved shirt cost four or five yuan, but such sturdy jeans only cost eight yuan!
"Because this batch of goods is for export, the label is wrong, but the quality is actually fine. But precisely because they are export goods, no one buys them domestically, so they are sold at a low price after being returned," Ajin explained.
Jiang Yue understood.
"Seventy-eight pieces, eight dollars each, a total of six hundred and twenty-four. How about this, I'll give you seven hundred!"
After saying that, Jiang Yue took the bag from Gu Ye and was about to take out the money.
"No, just eight dollars a piece, no need to pay more! I am already very grateful that you can buy this batch of goods, and I can't charge you more!" Ajin quickly shook his head to refuse.
"I'm not giving you the money for free. The extra money will be considered your commission. Can you help me get some more of these flared jeans?" As soon as Jiang Yue finished speaking, not only did A Jin widen his eyes in shock, but even Gu Ye was surprised.
"You want more?"
This question was asked by Ajin and Gu Ye together.
"Yes! I want as many as you can get!" Jiang Yue knew the upcoming fashion trend. This kind of flared jeans would be popular all over the country, and by then they would no longer be available for eight yuan a piece.
"By the way, besides bell-bottom pants, Jin, can you help me keep an eye out for other clothes with more unique styles?"
"A special style?" Ah Jin was at a loss for a moment, then said, "I see the factory has those wide-sleeved pullovers, which are also made for export. Is that what you want?"
A pullover with wide sleeves? Jiang Yue's first reaction was a bat sweater. She asked excitedly, "Can you get two for me to see?"
"Okay! Give me an address and I'll come to you when I get it!" said Ajin.
Jiang Yue looked at Gu Ye. Gu Ye said in the morning that he wanted to move to a new place. They haven't gone back yet, so they don't know where Gu Ye is going to move to.
"Oriental Hotel, if you come, ask the front desk to call. My last name is Gu." Gu Ye had obviously thought it through. Rong Yin also lived in the Oriental Hotel. If they lived there, they would be closer to Rong Yin.
"Okay!" Ajin took note.
"Can I check the quality of the pants?" Jiang Yue asked Gu Ye to count the money, but she still wanted to see if there were any obvious problems with the jeans.
"Sure!" Ajin took out the jeans one by one from the sack and handed them to Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue carefully checked them one by one from the waistband to the seams, trouser legs and crotch.
Acheng and Ahua were young, and when they saw Gu Ye take out such a thick stack of money, both of them were stunned.
The largest denomination of currency now is ten yuan, also known as the Great Unity. Seven hundred yuan is seventy Great Unity notes, which, when stacked together, are two or three centimeters thick.
Acheng and Ahua had never seen so much money in their lives. When they thought that with this money, they could pay off the loan sharks and their mother would have money to see a doctor, the brother and sister were so excited that their eyes were red.
By the time Jiang Yue finished the examination, A Jin had become a human-shaped clothes hanger, with clothes in his arms, draped over his shoulders, and even two pairs of pants on his head. He looked a little funny.
"Okay, everything is fine!" After checking, Jiang Yue saw Ajin's expression and couldn't help laughing. Acheng and Ahua also laughed.
