"Auntie, this time I'll take another 100 pieces of each style, and another 500 pairs of sunglasses."
After seeing Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan, Mai's first words were to report the order to them.
Moreover, the two of them brought all the money they had on hand this time, and only then could they barely scrape together the payment for the goods.
It's not that I don't want to take more, but I don't have enough money right now, and I feel embarrassed to take more of Aunt Qiao's goods to make money for myself. Although they won't withhold payment if they can't sell the goods, it's unreasonable for them to do so.
"Okay, no problem, I'll check the goods for you first."
Qiao Jiuru nodded, preparing to secretly move the goods stored in her spatial dimension to the room where the goods were kept.
"Auntie, you and Uncle Su can check the goods first. I'm going to find Brother Lei. Please take me to the train station again tomorrow."
It's not easy for one person to handle so much cargo. I had thought about it before I came, and decided to ask Xiao Lei for help again. I had written down Xiao Lei's address last time. After telling Su Huaiyuan and Qiao Jiuru, I rode off on my bicycle.
With 놛 not around, Su Huaiyuan and Qiao Jiuru no longer needed to avoid 놛 when placing goods; they could directly place the goods from their space into 눕.
"We don't have much stock left, we need to get more."
After two weeks of consumption, apart from the sunglasses which were still more than half full, the rest of the items were reduced to less than one-third.
After Mai took this opportunity, there really wasn't much stock left.
"Xiaofeng should be in Guangzhou tomorrow. We'll have him go to Boss Chen's place to buy goods after he calls."
Qiao Jiuru calculated the time before saying, "Tomorrow is Friday, and Su Feng's train will definitely arrive in Guangzhou before tomorrow night. Then he goes to school to register on Saturday, and should be able to rest on Sunday."
Su Huaiyuan nodded. They were worried about the payment, so they could trouble their youngest son. However, Aru had said they would be restocking once a month from now on.
After the couple discussed it and agreed, they lowered their heads and began to check the goods for Mai.
On the other side, Mai rode her bicycle towards Xiao Lei's house. Fortunately, Mai now had a general understanding of the roads in Kyoto, and found Xiao Lei's house without much trouble.
Xiao Lei and his sister had just returned from the food stall. The two siblings were cooking when they heard someone calling them from outside.
"Brother Mai, what brings you here?! Come in and have a seat."
Xiao Lei went to see what was going on when he heard the noise, and to his surprise, the person who came to find him was Brother Mai, the businessman in Shijiazhuang.
"Brother, I just finished. Come on, let's go to the alley over there. I'll treat you and your aunties to dinner."
Mai didn't go in; instead, he beckoned Xiao Lei to come with him and asked for his help, insisting that he had to treat him to a meal no matter what.
As soon as Xiao Lei heard this, he knew that Brother Mai had come to Aunt Qiao to get goods again, and since the aunties were over there, he didn't hesitate.
"Xiao Juan, your brother and this Brother Mai are going to Aunt Qiao's courtyard in the alley, so we won't be eating at home."
He went into the kitchen to report where he had gone and pointed out the wheat outside to his younger sister.
Lei Zi's younger sister, Xiao Juan, heard her brother mention this person, who was the one her aunt and Uncle Su had asked her brother to help transport goods at the train station last time. So, she curiously peeked outside.
"Brother, I'll go by myself tonight."
"Okay, don't bring your clothes, just bring a pair of sunglasses. I'll pick you up."
After the brother and sister discussed it, Xiao Lei went inside to get the money first, and then rode away on his bicycle.
Now, to make selling goods easier, the family has two bicycles. One is a newly bought second-hand bicycle, and the brother and sister each have one.
After arriving at home, they got onto the main road, and Xiao Lei and Mai rode their bicycles side by side.
"Brother Mai, you're really amazing. You sold out in such a short time."
It seems like it's not even been two weeks yet. Xiao Lei really admires him. However, he has already sold two-thirds of the goods he got. In a few more days, he will be able to sell them all.
Perfect timing! I can go over there now to pick up some more goods, so I won't have to make the trip again in a few days.
"I sell partly and wholesale partly."
Mai told Xiao Lei about her experiences over the past few days. She said that she made more money selling directly, while she made much less by wholesaling to others. However, she could make money faster by selling directly.
Xiao Lei immediately understood, but this model couldn't be copied. At this point in Beijing, Aunt Qiao was their boss.
However, the goal of retail is to make money. Although a coat can be sold for as low as 5.5 yuan, most of the time, it is never sold for less than that price, and is usually more like 5.7 yuan.
Moreover, Aunt Qiao told me to save up more capital so that I could find a shop to open a clothing store in the second half of the year. She said my younger sister would be the shop owner, while she would continue to run her stall.
When brothers and sisters are of one mind, their strength can break even metal.
The two rode and chatted all the way, and in less than half an hour they arrived at the courtyard on the other side of the alley.
"Uncle Su, Aunt Qiao, I've brought Xiao Lei here. Come on, let's go eat first, and then we'll count the bill after we finish eating."
As soon as he carried the bicycle into the yard, Mai invited Su Huaiyuan and Qiao Jiuru to have dinner.
Xiao Lei followed closely behind, carrying the bicycle inside. After parking it, he greeted Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan.
Qiao Jiuru glanced at Su Huaiyuan, and then the couple smiled and agreed.
The young people made money and treated us to a meal, which made them very happy.
We had a happy dinner together at a small private restaurant near the alley.
About an hour later, they went back to the courtyard together, and Mai went to check the goods.
"Auntie, I need to get some supplies tonight. Five more overcoats, four trench coats, six sweaters, and two hundred pairs of sunglasses."
After Xiao Lei went inside to count the goods, he quickly told Qiao Jiuru that they needed to buy more goods tonight.
"Okay, let's go in and check the goods."
When Qiao Jiuru went to find Xiao Lei in Mai, she anticipated that Xiao Lei might want the goods, so she sent them over in advance.
Xiao Lei didn't need many items, so he quickly counted them and immediately settled the payment.
"Xiao Lei, there's not much stock left this time. The second batch will arrive in about 7 days. I'll let you know when to come and check the goods."
The Queen of Pop is almost here for National Day, and the weather is getting cooler, so sales are sure to be good.
“Okay, Auntie, I’ll definitely come to buy the goods.”
Xiao Lei was both surprised and delighted when he heard the news. Qiao Jiuru had a great eye for choosing goods. The quality of the clothes was excellent, much better than those sold in department stores, and the prices were lower. Even a fool would know who to buy from.
Mai, who was standing nearby, had just finished counting all the clothes and overheard their conversation.
"Auntie, please don't forget about us."
My eye for selecting goods isn't as good as Qiao Jiuru's, and most importantly, I trust my aunt more. I just need to let my aunt work behind me.
"Of course I'll never forget you guys, you've all been helping me make money."
Qiao Jiuru considered herself a wholesaler, and Mai was a second-hand dealer in Shijiazhuang. Apart from earning less, she felt that this was not bad.
Mai was immediately relieved.
Xiao Lei quickly came over and helped 놛 count the aviator sunglasses; these things are easy to count.
After Mai counted the quantity and settled the payment with Qiao Jiuru, it was already past 8 p.m.
Xiao Lei and Mai had agreed on a time to come and help transport the goods at the train station the next morning, and Xiao Lei had already left with the goods. He also needed to pick up his sister from the movie theater.
As usual, after leaving Mai alone in the courtyard, Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan went home.
