The only way to get from Bashu University to Damiao Town is to take a bus. Just like on Wednesday, Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli dragged hundreds of pieces of clothing to the bus station, and then took a bus directly to Damiao Town from the bus station.
It took half an hour less than going to Xinshi Town. At around seven in the morning, Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli arrived at the market in Damiao Town.
Although Damiao Town is a town under the jurisdiction of the city, it does not have a special clothing market because its permanent population is not as large as that of the new town. All vendors are concentrated in a large market.
After paying the management fee, the market administrator assigned them locations.
Today is Saturday, and it is also the market day in Damiao Town.
While waiting for the stalls to be set up, the whole market was already bustling with people.
The people in Damiao are a little richer than those in Xinshi, and the clothes they sell are of good quality and low price, so there are quite a few people gathered in front of the stalls.
Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli were so busy that they hardly had a chance to drink water. Business transactions were successfully completed amid the noise.
By around ten o'clock in the morning, more than 400 of the 700 summer dresses had been sold.
Yuan Fangtai arrived at their stall at half past ten.
At first, Yuan Fangguo had no chance to talk to him. There were several customers in front of him, bargaining with him. Li Chunli did not notice that Yuan Fangtai was Yuan Fangguo's younger brother. After collecting the money from the two customers, she suddenly turned her eyes to Yuan Fangtai standing aside.
"Young man, what do you want to buy? The things we have here are all new products on sale this year." Li Chunli greeted Yuan Fangtai mechanically but enthusiastically.
Yuan Fangtai smiled sheepishly, "Sister, I'm the second brother of your partner."
When Li Chunli heard this, she suddenly realized that no wonder the two looked somewhat alike, they were actually brothers.
She knew that Yuan Fangguo's younger brother would come, but she didn't expect him to stand in front of the stall like a buyer.
"Sorry, I recognized the wrong person." Li Chunli smiled awkwardly.
Only after Yuan Fangguo had done his business well did he have time to chat with his second brother.
"Why did you come out so early?" Yuan Fangguo asked.
Yuan Fangtai said, "I got up early this morning and quickly washed the company commander and instructor's clothes, cleaned up the room, asked for leave from them, and left."
Listening to his second brother's words, Yuan Fangguo felt both relieved and uncomfortable. He felt relieved that his second brother was sensible, but he felt uncomfortable that the people he served were not his family members, but two leaders.
But on second thought, my second brother's progress is really due to the help of their leaders. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to do well in the army. China is a country with a complex social situation, and relationships are often more important than abilities.
"I brought two packs of cigarettes and will give one each to your company commander and instructor." Yuan Fangguo said as he took out a black plastic bag.
Yuan Fangtai nodded and took the bag handed to him by his elder brother.
"How's business?" Yuan Fangtai asked with a smile.
"Not bad." Yuan Fangguo nodded. "How much did we sell today, Sister Li?"
"I have more than 230 pieces here."
"I have more than 250 pieces here," said Yuan Fangguo.
"That's almost 490 pieces. We brought 700 pieces in total, and there are 210 pieces left." Li Chunli said.
"Try to help sell out by noon." Yuan Fangguo said.
"I'll help you sell it." As soon as Yuan Fangtai finished speaking, he shouted loudly in the market.
His voice was very loud, attracting buyers around him.
Even Yuan Fangtai's comrades discovered him.
After a while of joking, the comrades were very considerate and bought one each.
At noon, they had less than fifty pieces left.
"Tearful Sale" Yuan Fangtai's loud voice rang out again.
Buyers gathered again.
Perhaps their promotion activities made the surrounding merchants somewhat dissatisfied. A young merchant across the street found a big loudspeaker from somewhere at noon.
As soon as Yuan Fangtai roared, the loudspeaker immediately started to sound.
The other merchants around seemed to be watching the fun.
Yuan Fangguo and his men soon discovered that the other party was deliberately opposing them.
"Other merchants around here are shouting, why are they only targeting us?" Yuan Fangtai began to get a little excited, and he said loudly with dissatisfaction.
Seeing that Yuan Fangguo's younger brother was angry, Li Chunli quickly said, "Fangtai, forget it, forget it, let's go eat. There aren't many clothes left."
Yuan Fangguo didn't want to have a conflict with others at this time. To be honest, their business today was really good. It would be no problem for him and Li Chunli to make at least a thousand yuan each.
"Fang Tai, forget it. People like this are just jealous." Yuan Fangguo said nonchalantly.
Yuan Fangtai glanced at his eldest brother, then glared fiercely at the merchant opposite. The guy was full of disdain, as if to say, "Come over and beat me up if you have a temper!"
"Damn bastard." After yelling, Yuan Fangtai gradually calmed down and nodded. Although the other party looked like he deserved a beating, he had no suitable reason to deal with him, just like Yi Juntao was unhappy with Yang Tengtao.
They ignored each other's deliberate targeting. The three of them quickly packed up their things and walked out of the bustling market.
In the restaurant outside, the three of them ordered some home-cooked dishes. Although they were targeted by a stupid merchant in the market just now, this did not affect their good mood. Everyone was talking and laughing in the restaurant, and Li Chunli even asked for a bottle of beer.
Several of Yuan Fangtai's comrades were also drinking in the restaurant. They were all generous people, and after a few words, they decided to share a table.
With the catalytic effect of alcohol, after a few beers, everyone started patting each other on the shoulder and calling each other brothers.
Yuan Fangtai’s squad leader Zhao Yong was also among them.
Zhao Yong is from Jiangnan City like them.
Although I rarely heard my second brother mention his squad leader, in this era full of passion and enthusiasm, the squad leader still took good care of the soldiers under his command. In the company, I could beat and scold my soldiers, but outside our squad, no one could beat or scold my soldiers, except for the cadres, of course.
Yuan Fangtai also drank several glasses with Zhao Yong. After drinking, he looked very proud.
The meal lasted until almost two o'clock, and then everyone dispersed.
Li Chunli took the bill in advance, which made the soldiers feel embarrassed. They held Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli's hands and called them brother and sister.
"Next time you come, we'll treat you."
"Yes, how about coming over tomorrow?"
