Chapter 33 The Scene of the Explosion
When they arrived at the shipyard gate, it was just in time for the workers to start their shift.
Before the children were even mentally prepared, Jiang Ruzhen had already started shouting.
"Come on, everyone! Coming from the south, coming from the north, from Jiamusi and Hegang, from cotton mills, those about to start their shifts, come and take a look!"
The factory owner in the south ran away with his mistress, and all these unsold clothes are being cleared out at a massive clearance sale! Latest styles at rock-bottom prices! If you miss out, you'll regret it!
What is all this nonsense?
Shen Shuxin and Shen Zhuohang felt a little ashamed and quickly covered their faces and squatted down.
The second brother, Shen Zhuoyi, listened with his eyes shining. Could you really do business like that?
What a novel word! Just hearing it makes me want to buy it.
Who taught his mother this? That's amazing!
He followed suit and started chanting these words with Jiang Ruzhen. After chanting them a few times, he learned them and began to shout along as well.
There were many workers around, and they were all jostling and queuing up. Many of the workers behind them figured they were waiting anyway, so they wandered over to take a look.
One look was all it took; just seeing the jeans and jackets worn by the second and fourth brothers made them look incredibly handsome.
These clothes look so good, especially on the second and fourth brothers. Their height of over 1.8 meters, broad shoulders and narrow waists, and model-like figures, accentuate all the advantages of the clothes.
He looked dashing and full of energy.
How much is this jacket?
"Hey bro, those pants of yours are really nice! What kind of material are they? I've never seen them before!"
"Bro, give me a quick snapshot of yourself."
Everyone was envious and kept asking questions.
Before Jiang Ruzhen could explain, some young workers were already eagerly holding up their money to buy.
"Don't worry, everyone, we have plenty of stock. It's a clearance sale with great prices. These latest style jackets from the South are only four yuan each, and these pants are called jeans, which are also popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan."
They have straight-leg pants and flared pants, all from Sanyuan...
"Huh? So cheap? Give me one."
"It's still popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan, the kind of clothes celebrities wear. Give me two sets, quick!"
"I was here first, give me one set first."
"Don't push, is it first come, first served? I want one set."
"I want two sets, boss, give them to me first."
Jiang Ruzhen quickly collected the money and picked out clothes. Fortunately, everyone was quite thin at this time, so the sizes were all about the same.
In no time at all, a lot of them were gone.
The second brother, Shen Zhuoyi, quickly caught up with Jiang Ruzhen's pace. Only Shen Zhuohang and Shen Shuxin were a little confused and almost got pushed out of the crowd before they could get into the swing of things.
While Shen Zhuohang was stunned, he suddenly felt a cold light shooting towards him. He turned his head and saw his mother's murderous gaze slicing through him.
He quickly shielded Shen Shuxin inside, letting the girl collect the money while he handled the goods. The two of them, though a little clumsy, soon got the hang of things.
In no time, Jiang Ruzhen's stall was surrounded by people.
The commotion attracted the attention of the gatekeeper, who thought someone was causing trouble again and quickly called the security office.
A dozen or so security personnel rushed out, each carrying a baton.
But when they arrived, they found that it was Jiang Ruzhen who had set up a stall there. As soon as they saw Jiang Ruzhen, they thought of the sensational August thunderstorm incident.
Jiang Ruzhen looked up and noticed them, baring her teeth as she asked.
"What? You won't let me set up a stall here? Should I have my husband come over tonight to have a chat with you all?"
The men were so frightened that they quickly put away their stun guns. These days, everyone at the shipyard is gossiping about Jiang Ruzhen seeking justice for her husband.
The already somewhat supernatural event was spread to become even more fantastical, with everyone saying that Director Shen's tragic death was too unjust and that he refused to be reincarnated.
He returned in person to take revenge through his wife's hands. It's unknown whether he left after taking revenge or not. Everyone who saw Jiang Ruzhen felt their scalp tingle.
It felt like the temperature around me had dropped several degrees, and a chilly wind was blowing.
"No, no, we just came to take a look."
Jiang Ruzhen immediately saw through their thoughts and went along with their words, "Don't just look! You guys are so capable, hurry up and keep up with the fashion trend, buy a set! It's a fool not to take advantage of a bargain!"
Upon hearing this, several security personnel became interested and each bought a set of clothes to take home. Some even thought the jeans looked really cool and bought several pairs of both straight-leg and flared jeans to wear in rotation.
Jiang Ruzhen smiled broadly, then pocketed the money.
In just one morning, the clothes they brought were sold out completely, which exceeded Jiang Ruzhen's expectations.
She hadn't expected the men at the shipyard to have such high spending power.
The workers who hadn't bought any yet were anxiously asking if there was any left. A thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Ruzhen's mind.
He hurriedly pulled out a notebook and said, "Everyone, I still have a lot of goods stored at home. I'll come back when you're having lunch."
Anyone who wants the goods should pay in advance to reserve them, and pick them up at this same place around noon.
"Okay, I'll give you the money. I want a coat, a pair of jeans, and two jackets."
No sooner had Jiang Ruzhen finished speaking than someone handed her money.
Jiang Ruzhen accepted the money and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "People in this era are so simple and honest!"
Only people of this era would do something like pay first and then receive the goods. If it happened in her later life, in an era rife with fraudsters, she would definitely have been swindled out of her underwear.
She collects the money on one side, while her second son keeps the accounts on the other; the mother and son work together seamlessly.
The crowd gradually disappeared, and they hurried home on their bikes to get their goods.
Back home, everyone rested for a while before starting to pack the goods according to the order.
This time, Jiang Ruzhen ordered a relatively small portion of men's clothing, and after fulfilling these orders, there was practically nothing left.
Jiang Ruzhen decided to let her second son go to the shipyard on his own. This guy has a talent for business, so let him get some experience and be able to take charge on his own.
She then took Shen Zhuohang and Shen Shuxin to the textile factory at noon to sell women's clothing.
After tidying up, everyone was exhausted and covered in sweat.
Jiang Ruzhen couldn't stand the sticky feeling on her body, so she filled a basin with water and said she would go back inside to wipe herself down. The children also went back inside to wipe themselves down and rest.
Jiang Ruzhen went back to her room and took a shower in her spatial dimension. As soon as she came out, she heard Xin Xin knocking on the door outside.
"What's up?" Jiang Ruzhen quickly replied.
"Mom, the villagers know that our clothes are cheap, so they've all come to buy from us. Come out and take a look."
