Chapter 68 Fashion Show
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean?" Tian Yanjing was very confused.
Gu Xiyue knew what she meant, "Are you asking us to sell this batch of goods?"
"yes."
Tian Yanjing's heart suddenly dropped. "It's not that we haven't thought about this method, but this batch of goods is supplied to large shopping malls in Hong Kong Island. The quality is good but the cost price is also high. Ordinary department stores dare not take it over."
"Oh, can I go see it?"
Tian Yanjing naturally would not refuse, and the three of them walked towards the warehouse together.
They were silent all the way. Gu Xiyue suddenly approached her and naturally held her hand. "You don't have to take the responsibility on yourself."
He actually thought he was doing this out of guilt.
His palms were burning hot, and Zhou Nuan couldn't help but rub and scratch them, glaring at him, "How do you know I can't do anything?"
The couple whispered to each other, and Tian Yanjing beside them said: ... He is still here!!
It's really frustrating. It's bad enough that I'm exhausted all day, but I also have to be fed a mouthful of dog food.
Arriving at the warehouse, there were many ready-made clothes piled inside. Zhou Nuan took a quick look and saw that most of them were windbreakers, denim jackets, vests, high-waisted pants, etc. that were popular in Hong Kong Island. The tailoring quality was very good and they were obviously high-end goods.
No wonder ordinary department stores dare not take over, the price definitely cannot be lower.
"What is the cost price of this batch of goods?" she asked, picking up a pair of high-waisted jeans.
"Each piece uses different materials and has a different cost price. For example, the one in your hand costs us at least eighty or ninety yuan to make. They take it for a hundred yuan and then put a well-known brand on it, so they have to sell it for at least a few hundred to a thousand yuan," Tian Yanjing explained.
Zhou Nuan understood: it turned out that there was already a foundry at that time, and the reason why the product was sold at such a high price was because of the brand premium.
but.
"The cost price is eighty or ninety, they ordered one hundred, and you can only earn less than twenty after all your hard work?" This is not counting the good cigarettes and good wines given to people like Old Man Fan.
Tian Yanjing smiled bitterly, "They were able to find a start-up factory like ours because they valued our good quality and were willing to lower the price as much as possible." Even so, he had to intercede at Huashun to get the order. He originally thought that he could earn less, but he didn't expect to meet such a greedy person like Old Man Fan.
In fact, Gu Xiyue disagreed with the deal at first, saying that Fan was a bad person and could easily cause trouble. It was he who was eager to expand the market in Hong Kong Island and insisted on taking the deal despite his objection. If he had known earlier.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Gu Xiyue guiltily, "Old Gu, I'm sorry, I didn't expect..."
But she didn't even look at him. Her eyes were always on her wife, and she seemed not to hear what he said.
Tian Yanjing swallowed back the words he had just said: Okay.
He still couldn't figure out what Zhou Nuan wanted to do. "Sister-in-law," You've seen the clothes, too. What do you want to say?"
Zhou Nuan said, "I still have the same idea. We should sell this batch of clothes ourselves."
"Sister-in-law, didn't I tell you that no one dares to take it over? After the department store takes it away, they have to at least double the price after adding other costs. Ordinary people can't afford it at this price. Rich people can afford it, but they prefer to buy big brands instead of our unknown factory goods."
"Brands are created from obscurity. If you trust me, leave it to me. I have a way to sell it."
Give it to her? Tian Yanjing was very hesitant.
If I really give it to her, then there will be no hope with Old Man Fan. What if he finds a way to deal with Old Man Fan again?
"Old Gu..."
Gu Xiyue lowered his head and looked at Zhou Nuan who was standing next to him. She had a petite figure, and looked even thinner next to the two big men, but her face showed a firm expression, and she was confident and at ease, which made people feel at ease unconsciously.
"Can."
"Okay?" Tian Yanjing couldn't believe it.
"I believe her." He said in a flat voice.
Tian Yanjing's eyes twitched. "No, I'm not questioning my sister-in-law's ability. This is not a trivial matter. It concerns whether our factory can survive. How can we make a decision casually?"
"Then do you have any solution?" Gu Xiyue asked him.
Tian Yanjing choked: ... If he had a way, he wouldn't have to be so sad.
Gu Xiyue ignored Tian Yanjing, who had a gloomy face, and turned to Zhou Nuan, "Do whatever you want to do. As long as it's not illegal, I support you." Just like when she said she supported him starting his own business, at worst he could start over again. As long as he didn't give up, no one could defeat him.
"Uh... How did it get into whether it's illegal or not..." Zhou Nuan was embarrassed. "What I want to do is very simple. Lend me the workers in your factory."
"What do you want to do?"
Her eyes lit up and sparkled, "Hold a fashion show."
"You mean the kind of fashion show? The one where people stand on a stage and walk back and forth?" asked Tian Yanjing.
"Oh? You knew?" Zhou Nuan was a little surprised.
"..I've heard of it. It seems to be available abroad, but not in Haicheng yet."
Zhou Nuan smiled. It would be best if they understood, so she wouldn't have to waste time explaining.
"But where can we find people who walk in a wiggly way?"
"...That's called the cat walk."
"Cat walk? Tsk tsk, why not call it dog walk?" Tian Yanjing was puzzled.
"..." Zhou Nuan was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned to look at Gu Xiyue, "Give me a week."
When she was in the modern world, she was forced by her own Queen to take body shape lessons. Although her skills were not as good as those of professionals, they were still passable.
Gu Xiyue looked at her with a serious expression. After a long while, he lowered his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay."
The next day, Zhou Nuan brought Li Baijie and Liu Miao to the factory. The purpose of this trip was to pick a few suitable girls. Li Baijie and Liu Miao had been taught by her before and could help.
Soon all the female workers in the factory were gathered together. Their conditions were better than Zhou Nuan had imagined. Because there were height requirements when entering the factory, these female workers were not short and had good figures. She even found three or four girls with excellent proportions.
The most important thing is that they are all young girls, who are very receptive to new things. They quickly agreed to the temptation of wearing beautiful new clothes. They were a little hesitant at first, but with Zhou Nuan's encouragement, they quickly adjusted.
The seven days passed quickly. Because the training was conducted in secret, no one outside knew about the progress. Tian Yanjing was so worried that his hair was almost falling out. On the last day, he couldn't help but hold Gu Xiyue.
"What's going on now? Has your wife told you anything?"
"have no idea."
"You don't know? Aren't you worried at all about such an important matter?"
