Chapter 219 Going to Purchase Goods



Zhou wanted to open the courtyard door, put the mirror against the wall in the south room, and went to the kitchen to get some water. He said that he was thirsty and earned only a little money, which was not suitable for him.

Zhou Niao moved the wood to the south room and placed it along the wall. He then placed the mirror on a tripod and said to Zhou Xiang who came in, "Sister, don't go next time. I'll go and help."

"good!"

Zhou Xiang was eager to do so, but his mouth was too tired.

When Zhou Quan returned home and heard his eldest son complain, he said to his eldest daughter, "This is just one time, otherwise you stay home."

Zhou Yu nodded quickly, "I understand. I'll go every time there's a market. I won't go every other day. I'll close my stall at 10:30 so I don't have to delay cooking."

Zhou Quan nodded, this is not the way to spend a little girl’s time.

When Zhou's mother returned home, she also heard her eldest son complaining and criticized her eldest daughter in the same way.

Zhou Yu looked at his elder brother resentfully, "Am I not your sister?"

Zhou Niao turned his head and pretended not to see it.

Zhou Xiang laughed and put his arm around his eldest brother. "Let's go pick some peaches. You've worked hard today, big brother."

Zhou Yu had a gloomy face and felt unhappy even though he made money.

Depressed, he took out 25 yuan and handed it to Zhou's mother, "Mom, someone bought your bed sheet."

Mother Zhou took the money with a smile and said, "Not bad, you can use any old sheets at home."

Then he called out to the brother and sister who were picking peaches, "Eat first!"

After the meal, Zhou Yu counted the money, 875 yuan, including 700 yuan for his sister, so he earned 175 yuan.

My sister is helping me today. If I were to do it on my own, it would be good if I could sell five items at a market.

Well! I have to ask my sister to help me get the goods back. For the time being, I can only wait for it for the sake of my graduation certificate.

I handed 875 yuan to my sister and said, "Please help me get the goods. I will go there myself after I get my diploma."

Zhou thought about it and realized that he didn't have time to help her run.

"I'll take you there. You go and dress up differently than usual. Come back immediately after getting the goods. From now on, you'll be on your own. I don't have time to take care of you."

Zhou Yu nodded, "Okay!"

The two sisters immediately prepared to set off.

Zhou Niao went out to play.

Zhou Quan didn't stop her, the little girl knew what was going on.

More than an hour later, Zhou Xiang and his second sister stood in front of the children's clothing store.

The boss greeted with a smile, "Hey! Little girl, are you bringing me business? Come in!"

Zhou Xiang was the first to enter the store. "I'm here to bring business. This is my second sister. She thinks your clothes are great and wants to take some back to sell. Would you be willing to share some of the profits?"

"Okay! But I can't bring goods for free, right?"

"That's for sure. Just name a price and we'll see if it's suitable!"

"You are from the town below, right?"

"right!"

"Just bring along the appropriate ones you usually buy, but it's more appropriate to sell these!"

The boss pointed to the clothes piled on the bed in the store.

Zhou Xiang picked it up and took a look. "It's too bad. It's made of acrylic and polyester. I can't even open my mouth to shout."

The boss knew he couldn't trick her, so he pointed to a wall Zhou Xiang never looked at and said, "Those are polyester-cotton blended fabrics. They're crisper, better looking, and cheaper than pure cotton."

Zhou Xiang picked it up and took a look. It was indeed good. Polyester-cotton blended fabrics have always been popular in later generations. He didn't expect that they would appear now.

"So what's the price of these?"

"Half the price you paid."

Zhou Xiang frowned, "Boss, you're not telling the truth. I'm going to give half the price for that kind of goods, one-third of that kind, and one dollar each for the cool bed."

Zhou Yu just felt dizzy. What on earth were they talking about?

The boss shook his head and said, "No, you're setting the price too low. I can't even make any money."

"Impossible. There's no profit. You should kick me out."

The boss gritted his teeth and said, "The items you usually buy are 40% off, the blended items are 40% off, and the cooling beds are 15% off."

Zhou Xiang shook his head. "No, 55% off, 75% off, 90% off, and I'll also bring a few more pairs of shoes to sell."

"Okay! Deal!"

Looking at his dizzy second sister, Zhou thought that she would need to come by herself next time, so he had to take her to see the fabrics and explain the bargaining to her.

After hearing this, Zhou Yu looked at his sister with admiration. She was so amazing.

"Okay, hurry up, I'll teach you how to look at fabrics and choose styles."

Zhou Yu listened carefully to his sister's explanation, and then looked at the clothes she had chosen for him. He realized that they couldn't be too fancy, as they were not suitable for the town. They had to be dignified and elegant, or lively and cute.

You can't have a child who is too young, nor one who is over eleven or twelve years old.

If the child is too young, you can pick up other people's clothes. If the child is over eleven or twelve, he can wear adult clothes, so there is no need to buy children's clothes.

In the end, I bought 20 sets of each fabric, including three styles, which cost me 600 yuan. I also bought a few pairs of leather sandals, which were also 55% off, so I got exactly 10 pairs.

875 yuan is gone, and my sister paid for all the travel expenses.

I told the boss that next time only my second sister would come to pick up the goods, and asked him to take care of her.

The boss understood what Zhou Xiang meant, and this girl was quite capable! A few days ago, she even beat up a son of an official, and nothing happened at all.

Nodding, he said, "Don't worry! If there's any problem, bring it back and I'll refund it."

"Thanks!"

This boss is pretty good. Although he did return the goods with problems, he was very frank about it.

The two sisters hurried back to town. It was already dark. Zhou Quan looked unhappy, so Zhou Niao helped move things into the house.

Zhou Yu didn't dare to speak. He ate dinner like a quail and went to wash the dishes quickly.

Zhou wanted to throw a notebook at her.

"what?"

"Keep the accounts! Are you going to be so muddleheaded? Don't you calculate the costs and profits?"

"Is it necessary? Wouldn't it be enough to just deduct the cost?"

Zhou Xiang held his forehead with his hand. "Yes, you can remember the cost once or twice, but can you remember it after a long time? Also, if you don't use a pen to calculate the profit, how can you figure out which ones are easy to sell and which ones are hard to sell?

Do you think you can always buy evenly? And you have to record and check the model numbers. Do you think you will buy back the models that are not selling well?"

"Huh? Why is it so troublesome?"

"What do you think?"

Zhou Yu took the notebook, but was at a loss as to where to start with the goods on the stall. Zhou Xiang had no choice but to teach her how to count the goods, record them, draw up tables, and fill them out.

"Alright, figure it out yourself. I don't care anymore. I really shouldn't have let you do business. You've exhausted me to death."

Zhou Yu stuck out his tongue and quickly coaxed her, "Okay, thank you, sister. I can do these by myself. I will get it after a long time."

"Yeah! Also, you'll definitely need Big Brother every time, so you have to pay him a salary. You can't ask him to work for you for free!"

"I'll pay him ten dollars a month."

"No, twelve episodes a month, less than a dollar per episode. I won't work for you anymore."

"What about twenty?"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Zhou Yu felt like he was being ripped off. If it was only fifteen dollars, his sister would probably agree.

Zhou Xiang was very satisfied that his eldest brother could find his self-worth and his second sister would not take it for granted that he would order him around.
