Chapter 470: After going to the night market, I was deeply shocked
Sun Xiaocao and Sun Xiaolan stared blankly at the middle-aged woman's figure walking away, their heads buzzing.
They bought the dress for 40 yuan and sold it for 35 yuan at the night market.
They buy shirts for eight dollars and sell them for six dollars at the night market.
Not only were the sisters Sun Xiaocao and Sun Xiaolan's heads buzzing, but Sun Qiang's head also felt like it had been hit by a club.
After lying there for an unknown amount of time, Sun Qiang turned over and rushed out.
I almost bumped into my wife who was coming back from selling vegetables.
Sun Qiang pushed his wife away and walked out quickly.
Sun Qiang's wife was caught off guard and was pushed by her and staggered.
After finally stabilizing himself by holding onto the wall, he saw Sun Qiang rushing out as if he was possessed.
"Dad, it's getting dark, where are you going?" Sun Qiang's wife shouted anxiously.
Sun Qiang didn't respond, but just walked out.
"What happened to your father?" Sun Qiang's wife looked at Sun Xiaolan and Sun Xiaocao who were standing beside them.
Sun Xiaolan had no choice but to tell Sun Qiang's wife what the middle-aged woman had said before.
Sun Qiang's wife was dumbfounded when she heard this.
They bought the dress for 40 yuan and sold it for 35 yuan at the night market.
They buy shirts for eight dollars and sell them for six dollars at the night market.
What kind of business are they doing?
No wonder there haven't been any customers recently.
Occasionally, a few people come to look at it, but they just ask the price and leave.
Sun Qiang was gone for more than two hours, and only came back in a daze when it was completely dark.
After going out, he felt like all his energy had been drained away.
Seeing that he was sweating all over, Sun Qiang's wife hurriedly took out a bamboo fan to fan him.
He also ordered Sun Xiaocao to pour water.
"Dad, is the price really that high at the night market?" Sun Xiaolan asked tentatively.
Sun Qiang nodded with his shoulders drooped.
"Tomorrow we will go find the boss who wholesales clothes to us and ask him to give us an explanation." Sun Xiaolan clenched her fists.
The shirt only sold for six yuan at the night market, but he sold it to them for eight yuan.
The dress only sold for thirty-five yuan at the night market, but he actually sold it to them for forty yuan.
Is there anyone who does business like this?!
"It's Boss Li who sells it at the night market." Sun Qiang couldn't help but sigh.
"Then you didn't go to find him?" Sun Xiaolan asked.
"I found him. He said that autumn clothes will be available soon and he is selling them at a loss." Sun Qiang sighed again.
He hasn't sold many shirts and skirts yet, and now he's talking about autumn clothes.
"Selling goods at a loss? Why selling them at a loss? Isn't he afraid of losing money?" Sun Xiaolan couldn't understand.
Sun Qiang said nothing, but just covered his face in frustration.
"Second sister, why does the wholesale boss want to sell the goods at a loss?" Sun Xiaolan grabbed Sun Xiaocao's arm.
"I think he doesn't want to lose money. Also, this year's goods will be outdated and difficult to sell next year. Sometimes they may not be sold even at a loss, so he is in such a hurry to sell the goods at a loss." Sun Xiaocao guessed.
She heard all this from the owners of the clothing stores where Lai Yisheng bought goods.
"Then what should we do with the goods in our store?" Sun Xiaolan was anxious.
There are at least hundreds of clothes, pants, and skirts in their store...
A skirt costs five dollars, and a shirt costs two dollars. That adds up to a lot!
"Xiaocao, how did Yiyi's store handle the clothes during the change of seasons in the past?" Sun Qiang suddenly raised his head.
It was like grabbing a life-saving straw.
"There are rarely any backlogs of clothes in Sister Yi Yi's store. Before each season changes, most of them are sold out..." Sun Xiaocao twisted her fingers.
"It's impossible that she has nothing left, right?" Sun Qiang didn't believe it.
"Whatever is left, Sister Yi Yi sells it to Yunlai's female employees at half price as employee benefits. Sometimes it's not enough, so Sister Yi Yi will find a way to get some goods from other places for them." Sun Xiaocao answered truthfully.
"Half price? Wouldn't that mean a huge loss?" Sun Xiaolan's eyes widened in shock.
"I don't know how much the loss is, but Sister Yi Yi said that it is a benefit for Yunlai's female employees..." Sun Xiaocao really didn't know the purchase price.
Jian Qingyi is personally responsible for the connection with the garment factories, and they are only responsible for sales.
However, Jian Qingyi will give them a cost price.
As for how the cost price was calculated, only Jian Qingyi herself knew.
Although it is half price, that half price is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Especially those winter clothes, which can cost hundreds of dollars, and the better ones can cost thousands of dollars. Even at half price, it is still a considerable amount.
"Then what should we do with these clothes?" Sun Xiaolan looked panicked.
Not to mention whether the clothes in their store will be out of style next year or whether they can be sold, just the storage of these clothes and the money to buy autumn clothes are a big problem.
If these clothes are not sold at a loss, where will they get the money to buy autumn clothes?
When they bought these goods, they spent all their savings.
Sun Xiaolan became very worried when she thought of this.
Sun Qiang was even more worried.
As the head of the Sun family, he knew how much money he had in his pocket, and no one knew it better than him.
Precisely because he knew it clearly, he became even more worried.
"Dad, why don't we hurry up and sell at a loss?" Sun Xiaocao suggested.
It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. If you sell it at a loss now, at least you can get some money back.
If I wait until next year, whether I can sell it and how much of a loss I will make will really depend on luck.
Sun Qiang was silent for a moment, then nodded in compromise.
"Sell it! We'll also put up a loss-making sale sign tomorrow morning."
Sun Qiang did what he said. After dinner, he went to the owner of the convenience store and asked for a large cardboard box.
The words were written by Sun Xiaolan.
Neat and correct regular script.
[New store opening promotion: dresses for $34, shirts for $5.50, pants for $12.]
In order to be competitive, Sun Qiang set a price lower than that of wholesaler Mr. Li.
As soon as the sign was hung up, customers actually came.
A dress costs six dollars, a shirt costs two and a half dollars, and a pair of pants costs three dollars.
At the end of the day...
The loss was eighty-two dollars and fifty cents.
Although they lost a lot, the Sun family felt relieved.
The next month was spent in loss, loss, loss...
When the autumn clothes were on the market, all the money from the sales went into the pocket of wholesaler Mr. Li.
Looking at his pocket which was cleaner than his face, Sun Qiang really felt a little regretful.
If my second daughter continues to work at Yisheng, she will earn at least 60 yuan a month.
And three daughters...
The two sisters together have a total of one hundred and two.
Add to that his monthly forty-five dollars...
That’s one hundred and sixty-five yuan a month.
One year is...
One thousand nine hundred and eighty yuan.
Including the big red envelopes Yi Yi gives them during festivals, their family makes at least two thousand three or fourteen thousand a year.
Now……
After two months of hard work, I didn't make a penny and lost more than a thousand yuan.
Sun Qiang lay on the small wooden bed and couldn't help sighing.
"Dad, we just started the business, so it's inevitable that we'll suffer some losses. It will be fine in the future." Sun Qiang's wife comforted him.
Ever since the sign announcing big sales for the new store’s opening was hung, there has been no smile on Sun Qiang’s face.
Every day, he is either frowning or sighing.
