Chapter 106 Going to Yangcheng to Sell Goods
Jiang Ruzhen sat in the ambulance, accompanying Shen Zhuoyi.
Mei Ling pouted and got into her car reluctantly.
Along the way, whenever they stopped to rest, Mei Ling would always get out of the car immediately to fawn over Shen Zhuoyi, making Jiang Ruzhen, who seemed to have nothing to do, feel superfluous.
For the next two days, Jiang Ruzhen switched places with Mei Ling. She slept soundly in the back seat of Mei's car, while Mei Ling took great care of the second child in the ambulance.
The Mei couple, worried sick, had grown a lot of gray hair these past few days. As soon as the car entered Liancheng territory, they quickly pulled Mei Ling away.
Jiang Ruzhen chuckled coldly twice and took her second son home.
Don't think she didn't see through the couple's intentions. They wanted her to be the bad guy, break up the couple, and cause trouble for the child. She wouldn't fall for it.
As long as they are willing to let Mei Ling marry into the family and take such good care of the second child every day, she has no objections.
On the day Jiang Ruzhen returned home, she went upstairs to settle her second child in, and then immediately went downstairs to the store.
She and her second son were not home, and they didn't know what their eldest son and the others were doing with the new batch of goods.
Upon entering the store, the lively atmosphere immediately surprised her.
All the new arrivals were neatly hung on the wall, and many customers were trying them on and paying.
The eldest brother and two sales clerks were working very efficiently.
Just as she was about to say something complimentary, Huang Mao and his gang arrived, shouting from a great distance.
"Brother, do you still have any military uniform overcoats in stock? We don't have enough to sell here!"
"What? Is the second son's new batch of goods selling very well?" Jiang Ruzhen asked happily.
As soon as Huang Mao saw Jiang Ruzhen, he ran over immediately. "Aunt Jiang, you're back? Let me tell you, the batch of military uniform overcoats that our boss bought are selling like hotcakes."
Even young people in the surrounding counties who are better off want to buy one.
"The key is that this coat looks really stylish! If I weren't so short, I would have kept one for myself," Xiaoyi said with a smile.
"What coat? Let me see." Jiang Ruzhen looked at the eldest brother, who quickly got up and turned around in front of her.
The two brothers are about the same height and even have similar builds. The second brother is dressed so well, so the eldest brother must be just as good.
However, he wasn't as good at matching outfits as the second brother, who would also wear leather shoes and a hat.
However, the eldest brother's broad shoulders and narrow waist already perfectly captured the essence of the outfit.
"Oh, it's this coat!" Jiang Ruzhen recognized it at a glance; this style of coat was indeed popular for a while in the 1980s.
"Second brother has a good eye," Jiang Ruzhen asked curiously. "Big brother, how much did you price it?"
The eldest son scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed. "Mom, the second son hasn't had a chance to tell me about the cost yet, but he did mention that the price should be over sixty."
I brought this batch of goods home and thought they looked pretty good, so I arbitrarily set the price at eighty yuan. But surprisingly, they sold very well. I'm wondering if I set the price too low?
"Boss, this coat is actually quite nice. Plus, the big boss volunteered to be the model. He wore this coat and strolled around the business district, attracting more than a dozen customers who rushed to buy it," Xiao Tao joked.
"Yes, boss. The big boss really knows how to attract business," another salesperson added.
Hearing the two people's evaluations surprised Jiang Ruzhen.
She knew the cost price of this batch of goods that the second brother had purchased. She never expected that the eldest brother, without the second brother's guidance, would price the goods so accurately and even learn how to attract business.
It seems that the night school has been very effective; the eldest has made a lot of progress and is much more flexible in his actions.
Huang Mao stepped forward and whispered in Jiang Ruzhen's ear, "Aunt Jiang, my brother gave me sixty yuan at cost price, and I took eighty pieces in one go."
I sold them in the surrounding counties, and they were all sold out in three days. I made 1,600 yuan right away.
Jiang Ruzhen praised Huang Mao lavishly and was surprised by his honesty; his sincerity was truly touching.
Xiao Yi also stepped forward to boast, "Aunt Jiang, each of us brothers took ten pieces, and we also bought some hats, socks and other items to sell at the county market."
Because the styles are novel, they're selling really well. My brothers asked me to order another batch for them. We're planning to take advantage of the bustling pre-New Year market and make a good profit.
"You're all great! Aunt Jiang wishes you all great wealth and that you'll all become big bosses in the future."
The group chatted and laughed, creating a peaceful atmosphere.
Seeing that the boss and Huang Mao were doing things very well in Liancheng, Jiang Ruzhen didn't need to worry about them. However, she needed to personally go to Yangcheng to deal with the batch of export down jackets.
With the Lunar New Year just over two weeks away, Jiang Ruzhen wanted to process the shipment as quickly as possible within a week.
She only rested at home for one night, and the next day she took a train straight to Yangcheng.
Upon arriving in Yangcheng, she first bought some gifts to visit her parents, then rushed to pick up the goods and rented a small warehouse near the largest shopping mall to store them.
It wasn't worth renting a shop for this small amount of stock, so she went back to her old ways and shipped a bag of clothes, about a hundred pieces, to sell at a stall near the mall.
These days, as the year draws to a close, the area around shopping malls is packed with people buying New Year's goods, and everyone has plenty of money.
As soon as Jiang Ruzhen laid out the items, their vibrant colors immediately caught the attention of both young women and married women.
They crowded around to inquire about the price, and Jiang Ruzhen, with her silver tongue, made the export overstock seem incredibly rare and amazing.
It was as if these people would be missing out if they didn't buy one.
Although each coat is expensive, costing 120 yuan, there are just too many wealthy people in this provincial capital!
These days, most people have some preconceived notions that anything that can be exported abroad must be good.
They had never seen the down jackets that Jiang Ruzhen was selling before, but they could tell from the touch that they were even warmer than cotton-padded jackets.
They then actively began choosing, with some buying one for themselves and others buying one for their whole family.
In just one morning, Jiang Ruzhen's hundred items were completely sold out.
Jiang Ruzhen told those who hadn't bought any to come back after 2 p.m., while she went to eat.
After finishing my meal, I used the excuse of going to the restroom to check my accounts online. I had earned about four thousand yuan that morning.
She was very tired, but she was happy despite the exhaustion.
In the afternoon, she brought out another hundred items. Even more people came after receiving the news, and many bought all the goods.
Jiang Ruzhen dragged her tired body back to her parents' house and called out as soon as she entered.
"Mom and Dad, I'm hungry!"
"Oh! My sister-in-law is back! If I didn't come, would she have stopped coming to visit us?"
"Auntie, what good things have you brought? Show them to me quickly."
Two familiar voices rang out, one after the other, and Jiang Ruzhen's face immediately darkened. She lowered her head and told herself to bear it.
After all, they are her own sister-in-law and niece. Never argue with them in front of your parents and make things difficult for them.
When she looked up again, Jiang Ruzhen had put on a smiling expression.
"Sister-in-law, my niece is here. I didn't know you were coming today, so I didn't prepare anything. I was just passing by my parents' place and thought I'd drop by."
Bai Hua pouted, "Sister-in-law, I'm not trying to be mean, but we've been kind to you. You've come all the way to Yangcheng, how can you not visit us? You have no manners at all."
"Mom, why are you saying all that? Auntie must have prepared a red envelope for me, right? Auntie." Jiang Min stepped forward without any politeness, stretched out her hand, and asked Jiang Ruzhen for money with a straight face.
