To make it easier to manage the shop, Gao Baoliang usually lives in the shop.
There's a small room at the back of the shop with a small bed; it's incredibly comfortable and cozy.
Lin Chen finally had a little free time before coming to talk to him about Lin Qiao.
"They acted quickly, getting married quietly." He couldn't have been more envious of Luo Guangming.
Luo Guangming and Lin Qiao both came from rural backgrounds and knew each other well, so their marriage was within his expectations.
Unlike him and Meng Jiao, one was a country bumpkin and the other was a highly educated city girl. Neither of them dared to let her family know they were dating.
Anyway, every time we met, he was dressed quite fashionably, but when he stood next to her, there was just a feeling that they didn't match.
Unlike when she stands with her colleagues, she doesn't look particularly cultured or well-matched.
Lin Chen laughed at him, asking when he had become so insecure. He wasn't like this before, and there was really no need for it.
Is he earning less money now than he did working at a newspaper?
If we really want to get married, he can provide a house, a "three turns and one sound" (a traditional Chinese house, a sewing machine, a radio, a watch, and a telephone), and even the currently popular refrigerator, television, and washing machine.
Gao Baoliang sighed: "You don't understand. She deals with culture every day. She talks about who has published a book and how talented someone is. I feel like we have nothing in common."
Now I have to force myself to read every day.
Lin Chen thought to himself, "Luckily, both he and my wife are business people, and they always have so much to talk about."
"By the way, you specifically came to see me, there must be something else, right?" Gao Baoliang changed the subject.
Lin Chen slapped his forehead and started talking about renovating the courtyard house.
Gao Baoliang told him that the water and electricity renovation was almost finished and that ground leveling would begin soon.
In short, the people in this renovation team were all from nearby villages and they were all quite honest.
Gao Baoliang had also worked as a criminal police officer, so he had an air of authority. Everyone listened to him and worked diligently.
"Okay, I'm relieved to have you keeping an eye on things. If you have the chance, could you help me find out if there are any construction companies nearby? I'm thinking of having Luo Guangming come to the capital and start a construction company there."
Nowadays, construction companies are all government-owned entities; you can find one to affiliate with first.
Gao Baoliang repeatedly praised his older brother for really loving his younger sister, and readily agreed.
Having been in the capital for so long, he has been observing the local business landscape and has noticed that anyone with even a little business sense is starting to get restless and want to start a business.
They all make quite a bit of money.
After saying this, Lin Chen left quickly, as he had many things to take care of.
Jiang Rou watched his retreating figure and gave a cold smile.
She thought he was so amazing, finding a factory that produced high-quality, trendy clothes at low prices. In the end, she still managed to get all the information out of A Yong.
A-Yong even took her to see the owners of those garment factories.
Now, she can wear the same clothes as them.
If she could just lower the wholesale prices a little, she could steal all the business.
After several days of hard work, she now has over a thousand pieces of clothing in her shop.
The money for purchasing the goods naturally came from Lin Tao; she now knew how to use her personal charm to make money off men.
They completely manipulated Lin Tao and A Yong.
At first, she had some reservations, especially when facing Lin Tao, she couldn't help but feel guilty and reluctant.
Later, Lin Tao slapped her over a trivial matter, and she came to terms with it.
Perhaps, in this life, I can only rely on myself.
Her father was once the director of a steel mill and was respected by many. She was his biological daughter, but what did she get in return?
Lin Tao is her husband, and he has a huge sum of 100,000 yuan in his hands, but he is always stingy when it comes to giving money.
Ultimately, only money that ends up in her pocket is real money.
This time, she spent more than 5,000 yuan on goods, and Lin Tao only gave her the money after promising to pay her back.
As long as she sells the clothes, she'll have the capital to restock.
That day, several people gathered next door, waiting to buy goods from Gao Baoliang.
She wore a tight-fitting dress, had long, wavy hair, and bright red lips, waving at them.
"Come and take a look here. It's the same style, but I'll give you a two-dollar discount."
Several men who were buying goods were also attracted to her.
It was indeed the same style.
They picked out a few of the best-selling items and took two hundred of each.
They are middlemen who come from various counties and buy clothes from the local area, then resell them to individual vendors.
The clothes at Gao Baoliang's stall always sold the best, so people always bought them from him.
They can earn two extra dollars per item, so why not?
Jiang Rou's clothes gradually became popular.
When Gao Baoliang realized that the styles in her store were the same as his, he began to have doubts.
This woman is so capable, how did she manage to get the same goods?
He secretly investigated and discovered that she had actually contacted the garment factory and was getting goods from them.
He also questioned Ah Yong, but found nothing amiss.
Every time Jiang Rou and A Yong met, it was in the billiard hall, which was very discreet, and he didn't notice anything amiss.
Although Jiang Rou's sales have not had a significant impact on him yet, it cannot be ruled out that as her business grows, it could lead to a decline in his store's sales.
When Gao Baoliang went to Lin Chen's house for dinner, he brought up this matter.
Lin Chen frowned.
“The channels I found were all negotiated over several years, but she just took them and used them directly.”
These channels are known only to a few of us. Aside from Ah Yong, who might have leaked the information, I can't think of anyone else.
Jiang Ning also felt that A Yong had more face.
She has several orders to follow up on right now and doesn't have time to check, but she does have a way to get Jiang Rou involved.
She shared her solution.
Lin Chen and Gao Baoliang both thought it was feasible.
The next day, Gao Baoliang deliberately took A Yong to an old clothing factory and bought a batch of bell-bottoms with narrow legs.
As soon as the pants were brought back, someone came over and bought them.
A pair of pants costs five yuan to buy and sells for forty yuan.
The profits are huge.
In the following days, Gao Baoliang went to purchase several more batches of goods, which were all sold out quickly.
Jiang Rou was so envious she died.
Hurry up and go to the billiards hall to find Ah Yong and ask him about the supply channels.
"Sister, stay with me for one night, and I'll tell you."
Two hours later, Jiang Rou came out satisfied.
The next day, she went to the garment factory with the five thousand yuan profit she had recently earned.
When the garment factory heard that she wanted those bell-bottoms, they were overjoyed and sold her all the remaining thousand pairs.
Back in the shop, she began to hawk her wares.
"New flared pants, retail price 81 pairs."
Quite a few fashion-conscious young women came to buy them, as if they were free; one person bought two pairs, another bought three.
Those who came to buy stock saw how well the pants were selling and all said they wanted to buy a hundred pairs.
Jiang Rou was reluctant to sell them, clutching her pants and unwilling to wholesale them at a low price, so she decided to retail them.
Unexpectedly, two days later, her shop was crowded with young girls who had bought her pants.
