As soon as Yi Anan entered the room, she saw Sister Wang and others staring at her eagerly.
"Sister Wang, you guys are..." Yi Anan was still a little timid. She didn't expect so many people to come here today. After all, underwear is a very personal thing. It seems that it is not appropriate to take it out today.
Sister Wang quickly closed the door and pulled Yi Anan to sit down, "I'll show you something good!"
Sister Wang took out the calendar on the sofa and opened it.
Yi Anan looked at the beautiful woman in the swimsuit on the calendar and couldn't help but smiled and said, "This swimsuit is so beautiful!"
Sister Wang asked, “Can you do it?”
Yi Anan glanced at everyone and found that they were all looking at her expectantly.
"Sister Wang, this dress was made by me. Do you dare to wear it at the beach?" Yi Anan asked with a smile.
Sister Wang hesitated for a moment, looked at the sexy swimsuit again, and shook her head, "I'm afraid I can't!"
Another little sister also said: "Oh, if I go out wearing this, my man will kill me, but I can wear it at home to show him!"
As soon as the little sister said this, everyone covered their mouths and laughed.
In this day and age, they certainly can't wear it like this outside, but they can wear it at home in front of their men!
"That's a coincidence. I did make a few sets, but I made them according to Sister Wang's size because I gave them to Sister Wang." Yi Anan looked at Sister Wang, "Sister Wang, can I take them out?"
Yi Anan's meaning was very clear. If Sister Wang was unwilling to show it to her younger sisters, she would show it to Sister Wang alone.
"Oh, Sister Wang, look, you are eating alone here. Come and show us so that we can open our eyes!" At this moment, a little sister said coquettishly.
The other little sisters also said nice things. Some praised Sister Wang for her gambling skills, and some called Sister Wang their dear sister. In short, they praised Sister Wang so much that they couldn't close their mouths.
"Okay, okay, Xiaoyi, open their eyes and let them see the good things you brought!" Sister Wang covered her mouth and smiled, her eyes curved.
Only then did Yi Anan take out the five sets of underwear from the briefcase she carried with her.
When designing these underwear, Yi Anan did refer to some popular swimsuit elements later. They are not pure black. Some are decorated with red silk lace, some are designed with wild-style suspenders, and the bras are decorated with cotton to make the breasts look taller. The underwear are designed as thongs, briefs and boxer briefs, and the abdomen is also treated with tummy-tightening treatment to ensure that the upper body is convex and the lower body is curved when worn.
As soon as Yi An'an took it out, just the pattern alone attracted Sister Wang and the other girls to admire it. They usually wore floral wide-band vests and floral shorts, but compared to these styles now, they looked old-fashioned and ugly. Besides, the fabrics were smooth, soft and comfortable.
"Oh, I've seen this material before!" Suddenly, a little sister whispered to Sister Wang, "A few days ago, my husband brought back a pair of underwear and said it was specially supplied. My husband likes this kind of fabric very much. He wears it every day and refuses to wash it. It is comfortable and does not lose its shape."
The man of this young lady works in a special department and can often get some good stuff that ordinary people have never seen. Even Sister Wang, the wife of the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, envy him for the things he has.
When everyone heard this, they immediately rubbed the fabric a little more. The more they touched it, the better they thought it was. Then they encouraged Sister Wang to try it on.
"You're going to die. If I wear it, I'll wear it for my man to see. What's the point of showing it to you? If you want it, just buy it for me, your sister. On the contrary, we all wear it for our men to see. We don't wear it outside. Are you afraid of having the same clothes as others?" Sister Wang immediately put away all the underwear and refused to be manipulated by these sisters.
The less Sister Wang wore it, the more itchy everyone felt, and they quickly asked about the price.
Yi Anan thought about it, although it was underwear, the materials were rare, and she had to go high-end to make money. Moreover, the men of these women were very capable. In order to keep their men, they would definitely be willing to spend money, so she decided to buy it for ten yuan a set.
As soon as Yi Anan mentioned the price, several young sisters all gasped.
"Ten yuan, that can buy more than ten kilograms of pork!" someone whispered.
Yi Anan nodded: "This is already a preferential price for Sister Wang's sake. If outsiders want it, it will cost fifteen yuan a set, because these fabrics are specially supplied to foreign countries. I spent a lot of effort to get them. And now the situation is so tense. I have to be careful when making these things. I may go to jail at any time. In addition, this is fashionable and can't be bought outside. Ten yuan a set is really not expensive!"
Yi Anan was telling the truth. It is now the end of 1977 and there is no reform or opening up. Small traders who are caught will be re-educated or imprisoned. Therefore, doing business in this era is really risky.
Everyone was reluctant and a little hurt, but seeing Sister Wang's proud look, no one wanted to be outdone, and they also wanted one or two sets very badly, but when they were choosing, they felt that the styles of these five sets were all good-looking, and they really couldn't choose, so they gritted their teeth and ordered five sets.
If someone takes the lead, the others cannot let others laugh at them and make them feel that they can't even come up with 50 yuan, so they will follow suit and order five sets.
After a while, Yi Anan sold 25 sets of clothes and collected a deposit of 10 yuan from each person. She promised to deliver the clothes to their homes within three days and allow them to be tried on on the spot. If they didn't look good or didn't fit, they could be returned on the spot.
After hearing Yi Anan's promise, the sisters who had been hesitant before had no worries at all and paid the money happily. Yi Anan measured the size on the spot and recorded the address.
After those young ladies left, Sister Wang looked at Yi An'an and said, "You are really good at business. If it were before liberation, you would have been a strong woman. Unfortunately, this era doesn't allow it."
Yi Anan packed up the ruler and notebook, and said with a smile: "Sister Wang, my time will come soon. After a year, the private economy will be liberalized!"
Sister Wang didn't believe it: "In the past few years, the inspection was so strict. Look, buying things secretly was the tail of capitalism. Although it has not been so strict in recent years, it was not allowed at that time. How can it be possible?"
Yi Anan smiled and said: "It will come, our lives will get better and better!"
Sister Wang didn't believe it, but she also hoped that life would be better, so she nodded: "In the future, if you have anything good, show it to me. If I like it, I will help you find friends to buy it."
Yi Anan thanked her.
After Yi An'an returned, she stepped up to make underwear with Chen Ma. Because she was busy, she asked Chen Yanmei to bring a letter to Zhan Nanhui and did not go back for three consecutive days.
Three days later, the goods were delivered, Yi Anan got a few more orders, and was busy for a few more days before celebrating the Little New Year.
When I returned home after delivering the goods, 깊 Zhan Nanhui was not at home.
