Yan Ge laughed as soon as he saw him: "Brother Hao, what are you doing here? Isn't your seat number one?"
Hao Ge laughed heartily: "From now on, there will be a stall every ten numbers. How come you got here so quickly? What kind of goods do you want to buy this time, and how much?"
"Brother Hao, this is my uncle. I want to bring in more this time, mainly because my uncle and his family also want to do business together." Yan Ge introduced Yan Xiaoqiang to Brother Hao.
Yan Xiaoqiang couldn't possibly call him Brother Hao. This little brat thinks he can act like a big brother in front of me? Did he sleep his head flat last night?
"Hello, Uncle Yan." Brother Hao generously extended his hand.
Yan Xiaoqiang also extended his hand, but didn't know how to start. Hao Ge, being a businessman, was very good at reading people: "Uncle, you can just call me Ahao."
That's more like it: "Hello, Ah Hao, I'll have to ask you for help with my Yan Ge from now on."
"Oh, you're too kind. I'd also like to ask Yan Ge for help."
Yan Jin pulled out the list he had written on the train and handed it to Ah Hao. Ah Hao took a look and exclaimed, "Wow, this is really a big customer, buying so much stuff!" He asked, "How are you two going to get all this back?"
Yan Xiaoqiang immediately had a good impression of this Ah Hao. As a businessman, he only cared about doing business and didn't care how you transported it back.
"Brother Hao, do you remember those two women from Shanghai last time? The two who brought in a lot of goods." Yan Ge repeated what Nan Nan had told him to say to Ah Hao.
Ah Hao had a deep memory of those two women, especially the one named Sheng Nan. She was hardworking and incredibly tough. Don't ask him how he knew her name; he overheard Ye Huixian calling her Sheng Nan, and it left a very strong impression on him.
"What, you know them?" Ah Hao was surprised. One was from Shanghai, and the other was from Beijing. If he could know them, the world was too small.
“Yes, yes, I know them. One of those two is my sister’s fiancé’s aunt. I’m working with her this time, so getting more stock is no problem. We’ll ship it by train,” Yan Ge said excitedly.
Ah Hao was in a great mood. In his eyes, Yan Ge was just a small-time retail investor, while Sheng Nan and the others were big clients. Now that the big clients and retail investors had joined forces, it seemed that the retail investor's sister was quite capable.
"Then you pick out the goods, and I'll ship them for you directly. Is it the same as last time, one shipment to Shanghai and the other to Beijing?"
"Yes, yes, I'm going with you to check in the luggage. My aunt asked me to deliver some things to that friend." Yan Ge was a little embarrassed.
Yan Xiaoqiang hadn't expected that sourcing goods would be so convenient. What he didn't know was that when Yan Ge first came here, he spent two whole days browsing around before finally deciding to buy from Ahao. The place was just too chaotic, and Yan Ge couldn't afford to lose.
However, Yan Xiaoqiang was ashamed of his shallowness. Yan Ge led him to the warehouse to pick out clothes. This time it wasn't forty pairs of pants or eighty undershirts, but thousands upon thousands of pieces of clothing. Yan Ge sat on the ground and began to select one by one.
Open the clothes, carefully inspect them, then fold them neatly and put them into a box. One hundred clothes per box. Yan Xiaoqiang didn't understand why he had to pick them out one by one. He was told strictly that once the goods left the warehouse, the company was not responsible for them and they could not be returned or exchanged. If he didn't check them carefully, he would lose his hard-earned money.
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaoqiang sat down on the ground and started picking things out, mimicking Yan Jiong's manner. Two people working together is much faster than one person, especially Yan Xiaoqiang, who helped Cuihua with the embroidery and could tell the quality of the stitches at a glance.
In his eyes, no garment was stitched better than Cuihua's, but if he were to follow Cuihua's standards, there would be no need to come here. Yan Xiaoqiang quickly changed his mindset and started working according to strict standards.
After an afternoon on the first day, a whole day on the second day, and a whole day on the third day, they finally finished selecting all the clothes they needed. They could pack and ship them tomorrow. Only then did the two of them breathe a sigh of relief. It was really hard work. As Nan Nan had said, time is money, so they had to be quick.
"Brother Hao, that's all. Can you calculate the price for me? Also, Brother Hao, have you heard anything about the house I asked you to find last time?" Yan Ge found Ah Hao and handed him the list written by the warehouse manager.
"You're really lucky, kid. There's a room for rent on the street behind the warehouse. It's a pretty big room, big enough to accommodate several people. It's twelve yuan a month. Do you want it?"
"Yes, yes, I'll take it. I only borrowed it from the guesthouse for three days, and it's due tomorrow." Yan Ge was overjoyed.
"Come on, we'll deal with these later. The priority is to rent a place first, otherwise we'll lose out if someone else takes it."
The two followed Ah Hao toward the back street of the warehouse. After only ten minutes, they heard Ah Hao shouting, "Landlady, I've brought you business! Come down quickly!"
A plump woman came down the stairs. Judging from the sound of her footsteps, she must have been quite heavy. Sure enough, a large mahjong tile appeared before everyone's eyes. The landlady, dressed in a small floral polyester outfit, came out.
Yan Xiaoqiang's eyes lit up. This dress is beautiful! It would be great if he could get two sets for his mother and Cuihua. "Little sister, your dress is so pretty. Where did you buy it? I want to get one for my wife too."
The landlady was amused by Yan Xiaoqiang's words: "Uncle, ask Ahao. He has all colors here. You and your son are renting this place, aren't you?"
"Yes, yes," Yan Ge hurriedly replied. He genuinely wanted Yan Xiaoqiang to be his father, Cuihua to be his mother, and a beautiful little sister named Nan Nan.
"Take a look at this room, is it alright?" The landlady led them into a south-facing room on the ground floor. The room was quite large, with good lighting, and it even had a bed and a wardrobe. Not bad at all.
“Okay, Ah Hao introduced you. I’ll give you eleven yuan a month. How long do you want to stay?” The landlady was incredibly generous.
"How many years can you rent it for at most?" This time Yan Xiaoqiang wanted to ask carefully. He had a shop in Beijing, and the Ye family also had a shop in Shanghai. It was clearly a long-term business.
"I'm fine with either, one year, five years, but no more than five years," the landlady said after thinking for a moment. She didn't want to keep looking for new tenants; it was too much trouble.
"Then it's five years. How will the rent be paid?" Yan Xiaoqiang made the decision.
Rent is paid annually. It's July now, so you'll pay until December. Starting next year, it will be paid annually.
Yan Xiaoqiang was worried that the landlady would regret it, so he asked to pay for the whole year of next year as well. The landlady glanced at Yan Xiaoqiang and thought he was a fool with too much money. She thought it would be good to run into a few more of these.
Yan Xiaoqiang remembered Nan Nan's words that a contract must be signed when renting a house. So when the landlady agreed, Yan Xiaoqiang asked to sign the contract. Ahao opened the drawer with practiced ease, took out a copy from a stack of pre-printed simple contracts, filled in the date, name, price and rental period, and then they signed each other. The contract was completed.
