Chapter 425 Summer Clothes Arrival

The specific content of the mission could not be disclosed. Li Zhan just shook his head and said with a smile: "It is confidential, but it is not dangerous. Don't worry."

Xia Juanjuan still looked at him worriedly.

When has a tough secret mission ever been safe?

"You didn't lie to me?" Xia Juanjuan asked with a frown.

Li Zhan laughed and said, "Why would I lie to you? Don't worry, if there is any danger, I will definitely let you know."

Xia Juanjuan also knew that he couldn't reveal more, so she could only trust him and nodded.

In the next few days, Lizhan really started going out early and coming back late.

It was fine when she went out in the morning, as Xia Juanjuan could still let him ride her bike to school, but when she came back in the afternoon, she basically came back alone.

However, this man's training intensity had obviously increased during the day, and he was still full of energy at night, so the number of times he was tortured was no less than before.

Two days later, Xia Juanjuan took advantage of her rest and went to Guangzhou via space.

She still sent some Chinese medicine to Aunt Li as usual.

As expected, Manager Li only had two or three relatively conservative styles, so Xia Juanjuan took a fancy to the small round-neck floral skirt and the plaid skirt, and only bought about ten of each.

After leaving Manager Li, Xia Juanjuan went to take a look at the newly emerging individual wholesale market in Guangzhou.

From the announcement of the nationwide liberalization in December last year to now, in just half a year, the individual wholesale market in Guangzhou has become more than three times more lively than before.

Xia Juanjuan was also amazed at the dazzling array of goods displayed by the wholesalers.

When it comes to open-mindedness, Guangzhou at this time is really far ahead of other places in the country.

Xia Juanjuan went straight to the clothing wholesale stall.

There are indeed many more styles here than in other places. There are ruffled necklines, ruffled hem designs, V-neck red slim skirts, more neutral shirts, skirts, etc. Many of them are imitated from the popular clothes in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

There was no awareness of copyright in that era, so no one had the idea of ​​pirating.

Guangzhou is close to Hong Kong, so it is a place with unique advantages. It is natural that light industries such as clothing can develop rapidly.

Xia Juanjuan visited almost all the stalls. If she saw a style that interested her, she would ask about the price and compare prices. Finally, she decided on the stall where she wanted to buy the goods.

The owner of this stall is surnamed Jin. People who come to pick up goods call him Lao Jin. He looks to be in his thirties, not very tall, but very active in doing business.

The reason why Xia Juanjuan chose him was not because his prices were the lowest, but because he had the most styles and many high-quality goods that were not available at other stalls.

Xia Juanjuan picked out some styles that were relatively new but not too abrupt, mainly dresses and skirts, as well as round-neck and V-neck tops to match the skirts. As for pants, she only chose one type, which was wide-leg jeans.

In the 1980s, wide-leg bell-bottom pants became a fashion trend across the country. It can be said that this was the first fashion craze after the opening up of the inland areas.

Now, not many people are optimistic about this kind of wide-leg trousers.

Looking at the entire market, only Lao Jin's shop has it. However, most people just take a look and leave. Few are willing to buy it.

Lao Jin also highly recommends this style, but it is hot in Guangzhou in summer. Although this kind of wide-leg long jeans looks good, it is still a bit too hot to wear and is not suitable for summer wear.

The price of each piece of clothing is not low, and the buyers are not stupid. They will not buy the goods now and wait to sell them in the fall. If they do so, their funds will be tied up. It would be better to buy a few more summer clothes that can be sold immediately.

Lao Jin also sighed. The style is good, but the timing is not right.

It seems that these 100 pieces that he got through his connections will have to be kept for the time being and he will start selling them after the summer.

Xia Juanjuan fell in love with this pair of pants at first sight. Beijing is hot in summer, but the temperature difference between day and night is large, so this kind of wide-leg flared pants is a good sell.

It’s just that the price is too high, she thinks it’s a bit expensive.

The purchase price is fifteen yuan per piece. It is more expensive than a winter cotton coat.

She took it back and raised the price. Even if she only added one dollar, it would cost sixteen dollars a pair. It was a bit too expensive to spend half a month's salary on a pair of summer trousers.

The first pair of jeans Xia Juanjuan sold was for about ten dollars.

This design is nice, and it will definitely sell out at twelve or thirteen yuan each.

But in that case, she would be losing money but gaining publicity.

Xia Juanjuan first decided on the other styles of clothes she wanted to take, including fifty dresses, fifty skirts, fifty round-neck and V-neck tops, and thirty shirts, all of which were in different patterns and with slightly different styles.

The purchase price of a dress is 5 yuan, a skirt is 3 yuan, various tops are also 3 yuan, and a shirt is 4 yuan. Summer clothes are thinner, so the prices are not expensive.

When Lao Jin saw that it was a big customer, he was also excited and took out his bell-bottom pants.

"Comrade, look at these pants. They are a very fashionable style abroad. They are only fifteen yuan each. How do you think?"

Xia Juanjuan took it and took a look. The quality and workmanship were indeed first-class.

But she still gave it back to him and said calmly, "It's a nice-looking piece, but it's too expensive. Fifteen bucks a piece, enough to buy three dresses."

Lao Jin also knows that it is expensive, otherwise why would no one be interested in it?

"If you can get more, we can negotiate the price."

Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "If I want 20 pieces, how much can you give me?"

Lao Jin's eyes lit up and he looked at Xia Juanjuan with some suspicion.

The lesbian in front of me is not very old, but she is very beautiful, the kind that makes people unable to take their eyes off her at first sight.

Because of this, he was very sure that this lesbian was a stranger and it must be her first time to come to the wholesale market here, otherwise he would never forget it.

She has already bought over 800 yuan worth of goods. Can she still order 20 more pairs of bell-bottom pants? That would add up to thousands of yuan!

However, the goods were worth about 800 yuan, and the other party has already paid for them. It’s not like they are short of 200 or 300 yuan now, right?

Lao Jin thought for a moment and said, "If you can get 20 pieces, I'll give you a discount of 2 yuan per piece. How about 13 yuan per piece?"

Thirteen yuan. Although his profit was less, he could use the free money to buy more other popular styles from the factory. After two or three months of turnover in the summer, the profit would be made up.

It's better than holding the product for a few months. Not only does it take up space, but if the market changes and the price of the same product is lowered, he will lose money!

Xia Juanjuan shook her head and said, "It's still too expensive. How about I take 50 pieces and you give me 10 yuan for them?"

Lao Jin's eyes widened, and he stuttered, "Fifty, fifty pieces? Are you sure you want that many?"
