The middle-aged woman stretched her neck and heard the shouting, so she came over and said, "Old comrade, this is expensive. It's only a penny in the department store."
"Comrade, for the same price, please take a look at the quality and pattern of my socks. Do department stores have such good styles? Now you can buy one pair and get one free. It's cheaper than the department store, what a bargain." Uncle Ge showed the man the red socks with a villain on them.
Although feudal superstition is not allowed now, a pair of socks is not a big deal, and it just meets people's needs.
"Buy one pair and get one pair free?" The middle-aged woman touched the socks and liked every pair.
"Today is the first time for the two of us to set up a stall. Those who can come are here to show our support. We sell at a low profit but quick turnover. Buy one pair and get one free. If you don't want any, you can try to buy from a few others," said Grandpa Ge to the people who gathered around him with a simple smile.
"We have a big family, one pair is not enough, I'll take ten pairs." At this time, the family usually has many people. Uncle Ge thought about it for half the night last night and felt that one get one free would be the easiest thing to accept. Every family has a child, so at least everyone can buy one pair.
"This is a shirt, right? It has small floral patterns, and it's really bright. How much is it?"
"Two dollars for a set, four dollars for two sets," Uncle Ge replied quickly.
"Uncle, this is really expensive." The man held the shirt and was reluctant to let it go, but it was indeed a bit expensive.
"There is no good product at a cheap price, and good products are not cheap. Good things that everyone can see are expensive to buy. An ordinary shirt in a department store costs more than two yuan a set. Look at the quality of my shirt, it's very thick and has great elasticity. Look at the patterns, you won't see them in the whole capital." Uncle Ge was trying hard to sell his products, and Aunt Yuan nodded dryly and would praise the quality. Originally, she was supposed to do the business, but Uncle Ge was the main seller.
Soon the rush hour for work arrived, and many people gathered around. The conditions of the old guys were very good. When the seasons change, everyone would buy some socks, shirts and so on. Socks were bought in pairs, and shirts and underwear also sold very well. Although their prices were not cheap, the styles were novel, and they were delivered to the door, so people were easy to follow the trend. They were sold out in less than half an hour, and there were still many left.
Uncle Ge and Aunt Yuan were busy sweating in the cold weather.
"Uncle, are there any more? We haven't bought it yet."
"Yes, yes, yes, I'll come over at this time!" Uncle Ge's old face was full of smiles. He made more than 20 cents for a pair of socks, 1 yuan for two pairs of pants, 40 cents for one, and 70 cents for a set of shirts.
"Okay, I'll come earlier." When everyone heard that he would come earlier, they all hurried back to work.
The old couple packed up the money and hurried home. Aunt Yuan followed Grandpa Ge excitedly. She didn't know how much the goods cost, but since they were selling so quickly, they must have made money.
Grandpa Ge calculated silently in his mind along the way. They took one hundred pairs of socks, ten shirts, and twenty pairs of underpants, which roughly equaled more than ten dollars. No wonder Old Man Li was still heading south at such an old age. They earned more than thirty dollars this morning, which was almost his monthly salary.
Of course, it is impossible to sell that much every day, but with so many factories in Beijing, it is enough for them to make a fortune.
After returning home, Aunt Yuan closed the door and looked at Uncle Ge with sparkling eyes, "How much did we earn?"
Uncle Ge had already thought about it. "Ten dollars, we made ten dollars this morning!"
Aunt Yuan covered her chest with her hands and said, "So much, only ten dollars for such a good husband? My God, this business is too profitable, ten dollars a day, three hundred dollars a month?" Aunt Yuan was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes.
"It's impossible to sell so fast every day. If we go to the machinery factory for a few days, it won't sell so fast. Those who should buy won't buy, and those who don't want to buy won't buy either."
"The machinery factory is a huge factory with tens of thousands of employees. We don't even have enough goods to sell there," said Aunt Yuan with a smile.
