In the courtyard.
"Auntie, for this shipment, I plan to order fifty shirts in one color, fifty sweaters in one color, fifty trench coats in each color, and five hundred pairs of sunglasses."
Looking at the batch of goods in the room, Song Luoyun was delighted and immediately began to report the quantity to Qiao Jiuru.
This time, they didn't just come to pick up the goods; they also brought the payment. Grandpa said that the family is short of money right now, and taking advantage of others will only wear down any goodwill between us.
Moreover, last night, Grandpa showed me the savings book that Aunt Qiao gave him, so I'm very confident now.
Qiao Jiuru thought that it was only early September, and the weather was just starting to cool down. It would be more than a month before it got really cold, so Song Luoyun could sell this batch of goods slowly. Therefore, she agreed.
“Kyun, if you want to sell the goods faster, you can ask your classmate to help you sell them. You can give them 50 cents or a dollar as commission for each item. Your classmate should be willing to help you.”
She's ordering a total of about 10,000 pieces of clothing this time. Since the shirts, trench coats, and sweaters all come in three or four colors, she needs 800 of each. She also needs 5,000 pairs of sunglasses.
With a variety of colors and being winter wear, the price is quite cheap.
The wholesale price of a garment is thirty yuan, and Qiao Jiuru sells it to Song Luoyun and the others for thirty-five yuan. Therefore, the retail price of the garment can be less than fifty yuan per piece.
If you earn more than ten dollars per garment, giving someone a one-dollar commission is actually quite generous.
Song Luoyun lowered her head and thought seriously, calculating rapidly in her mind. Soon she raised her head, her face full of excitement and anticipation.
"Auntie, when I go back to school, I'll ask my classmates. I'm sure there will be quite a few people willing."
I've calculated it all. The more people help me sell my goods, the more I earn. What's a dollar's profit compared to that? If I can sell 3,000 items, I'll give others 3,000, but I can earn 30,000. If I just sell them slowly by myself, I might only sell 1,000 or a little over 1,000 items, and I'll only earn a little over 10,000. I'm not stupid; I want 30,000 or a little over 10,000.
Mai Nian, listening from the side, seemed to be deep in thought. He was already looking for someone to fill his temporary job, and he was asking around to find out if there were any jobs available in the communes and counties near Beijing. As soon as he could get a permanent job and transfer his household registration, he would immediately sell the job.
Now, Aunt Qiao said that Brother Song can find people to help sell his goods. Does that mean he can find more people to help him sell his goods?
"Auntie, I want a hundred trench coats and sweaters in each color, and I want five hundred pairs of sunglasses first."
Mai Nian quickly reported the quantity he needed. He was a little far from Beijing, so it was inconvenient for him to come and pick up goods frequently. Therefore, he would always consider the quantity of goods for a period of less than half a month each time he picked up goods.
Just as he finished speaking, he thought for a moment and immediately added another sentence.
"Auntie, can I hire someone to sell the goods?!"
My wife is in school, and I can't manage everything by myself. I also can't be in several places to set up a stall, so I came up with this idea.
"It's possible, but the person has to be trustworthy. It's best to find someone with good character, integrity, and morality, someone you know about the other person's family, preferably a young woman. Also, you can ask Hua to ask a classmate for help; offering a one-dollar commission will definitely make someone willing to do it."
Qiao Jiuru wanted these goods to sell quickly before ordering the next batch. If Mai Nian and Song Luoyun were to sell out, she might have to sell some goods to others.
"Auntie, I'll look for it carefully when I get back, and I'll have Hua ask her classmates in this city."
After receiving confirmation from Kim, Mai Nian was very excited and quickly said so.
This time, only Mai Nian and Song Luoyun were picking up the goods, so the group quickly counted them out.
After settling the payment, Song Luoyun eagerly pulled her sister to quickly bring the goods home.
The goods for Mai Nian were all paid for in advance. However, it's almost 4 PM now, and it will be too late to go back now. I can only stay one more night and then rush back to Shijiazhuang early tomorrow morning.
However, Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan had to go to work tomorrow and didn't have time to help deliver the package, so the couple thought for a long time before finally deciding on someone.
께雷.
Over the years, Lei has never had a proper job. His family consists only of his chronically ill grandmother and his younger sister, who is quite old. It is because of this family situation that he escaped the fate of being sent to the countryside.
That's why Ge Lei works on the black market to support his family.
When Qiao Jiuru thought of Ge Lei, she naturally thought of Ge Lei's background and family situation, and suddenly felt that Ge Lei could help her sell clothes.
“Gimmy, your Uncle Su and I have to work tomorrow so we can’t take you to the train station. We’ll find someone we know to help you transport your goods to the train station tomorrow.”
It was still early, not yet dinner time, and since she had thought of Lei, Qiao Jiuru decided to go find him right away.
Mai Nian was about to say that it was too troublesome, but then she thought about the thousands of items and worried that she might have to look after them all by herself, so in the end she didn't refuse.
After instructing Mai Nian to take care of his own dinner, Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan immediately rode their bicycles to find Lei.
Fortunately, when they found Kim Rae, he was still at home and hadn't gone to work at the black market yet.
The black market isn't as risky as it used to be, mainly because of reform and opening up, which allowed for more vendors and stalls, resulting in much faster circulation of goods. At least now, it doesn't have to be done clandestinely like before. However, the black market still exists.
"Auntie, you mean you want me to help sell clothes?!"
Hei never expected that his longtime customer would come back to him, asking him to help them sell clothes.
