Chapter 94: Working All Night
Due to Zhang's father's status, Zhang Xia had no way to drive him away and could only let him talk nonsense around her.
After a long time, Zhang's father realized that his daughter had made up her mind and would never turn back.
Father Zhang didn't feel sorry for his daughter that much, he just felt sorry for the money he spent.
"I'm your dad, I'm talking to you!"
Zhang Xia looked at Zhang's father without changing her expression, "What do you want me to say?"
"I have already bought the design, and the production line is running non-stop. What do you want me to say?"
Father Zhang: “You!”
Zhang Xia waved her hand and said, "Okay, you can go out if you have nothing to do. You are old now, it's time for you to enjoy your life."
Zhang's father's face fell instantly, "What did you say?"
"When you were pregnant and had a baby, who took the pressure to come into the factory and help you keep an eye on Wu Guifu?"
"Wu Guifu seemed like a good guy in his early years. Your mother and I married you to him because we wanted you to live a good life. But he ended up doing something wrong. You risked your life to give birth to a child for him, and he was making fun of me, his father-in-law, in the factory."
"You've grown so independent now that you don't even listen to your father, right?"
Zhang Xia still had no expression on her face. At this moment, the phone rang.
Mr. Zhang had more to say but was interrupted by Zhang Xia.
"What? Increase the order quantity?"
Zhang Xia was also a person who had seen the world. She did not show any excessive surprise when she heard the news that the customer had increased the order quantity. She just calmly continued the conversation.
This phone call was like opening Pandora's box.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xia did not give Zhang's father a chance to speak again.
Because the calls kept coming in, she had no time to deal with Zhang's father.
At first, Zhang's father thought that these calls were made by his daughter in order to discourage him from letting his son work in the factory.
Mr. Zhang is old, and he can no longer control his daughter and son-in-law. However, it would have been fine if he had never touched such a huge business from the beginning.
Even if I'm jealous, it belongs to my daughter and son-in-law.
Who made such a capable daughter not stay at home to find a son-in-law?
As a result, the Wu family got a good deal for nothing.
But in the two years since his daughter became pregnant and gave birth, Zhang's father got a taste of power and money after joining the factory.
At that time, the factory was doing well and had plenty of money.
Thanks to his family and his own desires, Zhang's father made a fortune.
How can he let go now?
But as more and more calls came in, Zhang's father knew that this was not arranged by his daughter.
She didn't need to find so many people to deal with him.
Then this many people can only be true.
There are really so many people coming to the factory to place orders.
This kind of grand occasion happened only two years ago.
Zhang's father's eyes lit up. "Xiaoxia, are these new styles you made popular? How come there are so many orders all of a sudden?"
Although Zhang Xia did not specify how many orders there were, the orders for Yuxia Garment Factory all start from several thousand or tens of thousands. With 5,000 orders from one phone call, the total for the more than ten calls just now must be 50,000 or 60,000, right?
With so many orders, I can earn at least 100,000 yuan!
One hundred thousand yuan in the 1980s!
This is not a small amount of money.
Zhang Xia still didn't say anything, but asked her assistant to ask Zhang's father to leave.
Mr. Zhang had no choice but to leave Zhang Xia's office.
Zhang Xia just received a call from Xia Keqing.
She was about to exchange a few pleasantries when she heard the other party say, "Sister, my store has received a huge amount of orders. Can you help me send another 10,000 pieces? Just follow my design drawings and help me with the stocking."
The matching items that Xia Keqing mentioned are leggings, wool scarves and other small accessories.
These were all discussed in advance.
Zhang Xia knew it after hearing it.
Zhang Xia was stunned for a moment, "So many?"
Xia Keqing nodded.
There are promotions within three days of the opening of a new store.
Under normal circumstances, the order volume will surge during these three days.
According to the practice of the first day, the order volume in the next two or three days will be at least thousands of pieces.
After three days of the new store’s big sale, the order volume should stabilize, and selling one or two thousand pieces a month would be considered good.
But it’s almost the end of the year, and Chinese people like to buy new clothes at the end of the year.
New year, new atmosphere.
Wearing new clothes during the New Year means a new beginning from head to toe.
I wish you all the best in the new year.
Xia Keqing also doesn't plan to miss this wave of traffic.
So even though an order of 10,000 pieces may seem like a lot, in reality it may not be enough to sell.
Having said that, Zhang Xia agreed without asking any further questions.
With those few phone calls, plus Xia Keqing's, Yuxia Garment Factory suddenly received tens of thousands of orders.
It was as if she had returned to the past overnight and Zhang Xia tasted the sweetness.
However, she also knows that a hit product is something that can only be found by chance, and similar styles will soon appear on the market, which is also common practice.
So she must hurry up to enjoy this wave of dividends first.
…
On the other side, Xia Keqing went directly to Yu Hong's shop.
It was almost the end of the year, and Yu Hong's business was picking up.
When Xia Keqing went over, Yu Hong was still entertaining guests. Guests came and went one after another.
By the time Hong was free, it was almost dark.
"Aren't you opening your business today? How come you have time to come see me?"
Yu Hong poured Xia Keqing a cup of tea and asked with a smile.
When Xia Keqing opened her shop, Yu Hong sent a flower basket, but her daughter had to go to school and she couldn't leave the shop, so she didn't go.
So I still feel very strange that Xia Keqing appears here.
Xia Keqing took the tea bowl and said without a word, "Aunt Hong, please help me, how much of your goods are left? I want them all."
Yu Hong couldn't sit still anymore.
"What?"
"The rest of my goods?"
She was stunned.
She went to Shenzhen with Xia Keqing.
She hasn't even finished dealing with the batch of defective goods she got from Xuefei Garment Factory.
There are more than 40,000 defective goods in total. She is processing them while putting them up for sale, but now less than one percent has been sold.
Plus two hundred down jackets.
The quality of this batch of down jackets is good, but the price is a bit high, which Yu Hong can't afford.
So I only bought 200 pieces in five colors, and only bought M and L sizes for each color.
There are fewer fat people in this era, most of them are M and L sizes
For Hong, as long as she sells all these 200 down jackets, she can make a lot of money.
So far, because the prices are relatively high and there are not as many wealthy people shopping in the market as in department stores, the down jackets are almost all in stock.
She hesitated and said, "I still have nearly 40,000 worth of goods. Do you want them all?"
This is the goods that Xia Keqing had looked at with Yu Hong before.
There is no problem with Xuefei's quality and style.
The only problem now is the trademark.
All the clothes sold by Keqing Women's Clothing Store on the first day had the "KQ" trademark. It would be a problem if it didn't have it later.
Fortunately, Xuefei’s batch of goods also has no trademarks.
So Xia Keqing decided to take it.
"How much do you plan to keep? Give me the rest."
Yu Hong was immediately excited.
However, if all the goods are sold out, she definitely cannot sell them at the retail price. She must give up some of the profit.
You can certainly sell it at a higher price if you sell it yourself, but it will also take longer to get your money back.
So Yu Hong simply gave Xia Keqing 30,000 pieces.
Including two hundred down jackets that have not been sold yet.
After Xia Keqing pulled the goods back, she hired five female workers who knew how to use sewing machines from the local cotton textile factory. They worked all night in the Keqing clothing store to modify the clothes and add the "KQ" trademark.
