Chapter 256
Su Miao had released the first rare "Tiger Card" in early June, but half a month had passed and no one had come to redeem it for a radio.
Su Miao thought to himself that the winner this time might be someone who was patient and was aiming for the 999 cash prize.
Today, the daily sales of shredded papaya are stable at around 300 bottles. Due to insufficient drying space, even a corner of the courtyard where Su Miao and his family live has been requisitioned to house several drying racks.
The current output of the workshop can just meet the market demand, but Su Miao is still keeping an eye on the housing resources, because after the exciting cash prizes are redeemed, a new round of sales peak will come.
However, there are very few houses for sale here, and the period with more changes will be during the graduation season in July.
The two families next to the courtyard bought houses three years ago to accompany their children in their studies. In addition to living in the courtyard themselves, they also rent out some rooms to others.
Families that can choose this method of accompanying their children to study are all in good condition. Moreover, with the rental income, the women in the family can temporarily put down their work and accompany their children to study wholeheartedly.
Su Miao only found out about this when she went to inquire about it. She originally thought that her father's behavior of accompanying her children to study was an extremely rare phenomenon. People who were willing to spend so much money and time on their children's studies had to wait until the late 1990s when the educational environment was better. She didn't expect that it had already appeared now.
These families should be the first batch of parents who accompany their children to study. Their children will take the college entrance examination this year. There is a high probability that they will sell their houses after the exam. After all, the housing prices here are higher than those in other districts, and the prices have increased a lot in the past three years. Not only will they not suffer any loss when they sell them, but they will make a profit from the difference.
Su Miao asked Sister Hui to keep an eye on the activities of the two neighboring households in real time and notify her immediately if any of them put up a sign for sale.
As papaya shreds became increasingly popular, the "Wu Yue" fashion store also gained momentum.
Uncle Si designed several sets of fashions and asked models to take fashion photos, which were printed into colorful books similar to fashion magazines. They were not only for old customers to read, but also advertised in many stores.
Following Su Miao's advice, we cooperated with stores with high traffic, and placed the brochures in the most conspicuous position of their checkout counters at a price of 3 yuan per month.
The main cooperative business is hair salons, because those who are willing to go to a hair salon to get their hair done, rather than simply go under a tree and have an uncle cut their hair, are all people with good financial conditions and are willing to invest in their appearance.
In addition, when Su Yu delivered meals to various companies, he would give one away. The fashionable styles on the books really fascinated the employees, and they all asked where the store was.
Su Yu pointed to the address and phone number on the cover and said, "This is the store's address and phone number. You can go directly to the store or call for consultation."
Why did Su Miao help with the promotion so much? Because she felt she was taking advantage of someone else's money. Uncle Si was not joking when he said he would give her clothes. He gave her and Jiayin three sets of girls' clothes in the right sizes.
Su Miao suggested that if Uncle Si wanted to go for a fashionable look, he could use bolder colors, make the silhouette more stylish, and try some materials different from traditional fabrics, such as leather, metallic colors, etc.
Of course, this is for the adult group. The youth group still takes brightness and generosity as the main tone and pursues comfort, but with the blessing of youthful atmosphere, it is also good to be brave enough to try contrasting colors.
One of them is a navy-style dress that Su Miao participated in modifying. The special asymmetrical navy collar and the contrasting colors of white and dark blue form a sharp contrast that is eye-catching. The raised waistline can make her look taller, and the A-line skirt is long to the calf. Paired with white sneakers, it is elegant and chic.
On Monday, she decided to wear this dress to school again to advertise for Uncle Si, while Ye Jiayin chose another one that suited her better.
A light orange bat-sleeved cropped top, paired with khaki mid-length pants, white socks above the ankles and Warrior sneakers, the overall look exudes youthful vitality.
There is no doubt that Su Miao and Ye Jiayin became a beautiful scenery when they went to school together.
When they arrived at the classroom, Liang Manman and Wei Siya came over. Liang Manman asked, "Where did you buy these clothes? They are so beautiful. Why haven't I seen this style in the department store?"
Su Miao said, "These two sets of clothes are from an old clothing store in our residential area. The owner has been doing custom clothing for generations, and these two styles were designed by the owner! You can't find them anywhere else!"
Wei Siya looked at their clothes from left to right and said enviously, "They look really nice. They really look like they were tailor-made for you. They must have been expensive, right?"
"It's not expensive. They not only make custom clothes now, but also make fashion in bulk. If you go early, you can buy the clothes directly. The price is about the same as the clothes in the department store."
The female classmates who had been eavesdropping on the side could no longer contain themselves and came over.
"Su Miao, can I touch your skirt? I want to see what material it is made of."
"sure."
"Wow, it's cotton! I thought it was Dacron because it looked so flowing. This must be comfortable to wear. Cotton is breathable and sweat-wicking."
"Oh, such a beautiful dress, it depends on the style. If it were me, I would accept beautiful clothes even if they were made of iron."
"Jia Yin, your shorts are so special. They seem to have wider legs than regular shorts."
"Yes, the legs of these mid-length pants are widened, which makes them cooler in the summer. The length is also suitable for us students. By the way, with the widened legs, some girls with a little extra weight can also make their legs look thinner."
As soon as these words were spoken, some students who were not so slim were instantly attracted.
A classmate who was only 5 feet 4 inches tall asked expectantly, "Do they really do more than just custom-made clothes? Well... I'm quite short, and my grandma usually makes clothes for me. Every time I try on pants at the department store, the ones that fit me right are too long, and the ones that are the right length are too narrow."
Su Miao replied: "It's okay, the clothes come in three sizes: large, medium and small. You can go to the store to try on some samples and buy them if they fit you.
If the pattern fits, but some of the sizes don't fit, you can ask the tailor to make some alterations. However, their business is very good, so you might have to wait in line. Since your grandma has sewing skills, you can go back and ask her to make some alterations! Wouldn't that be both convenient and quick?
The classmates all made plans to go shopping for clothes together this weekend. Su Miao added, "You can also bring your parents along. The clothes in the adult category are very fashionable. The designers just came from fashion shows in Beijing and Shanghai a few months ago!"
Thanks to Su Miao and Ye Jiayin's tireless promotion, the "Wu Yue" fashion store ushered in a small peak.
