Chapter 39: Purchasing Goods from All Around



Qingbei Road is called a street, but it is actually very wide. The three of them walked around in this area for a long time, turning countless intersections before Wang Meng stopped.

He looked around carefully and found no one around, so he turned and walked into a small alley. There were several doors and windows in the long alley. "One, two..." When Wang Meng counted to three, he knocked on the wooden frame of the window.

After a few seconds, a vigilant voice came, "Who?"

Wang Meng lowered his voice and said, "I'm a guest from the south, come and take a look."

This back and forth made Su Qingyun's eyes widen. Wow, if this were a special period, these people would definitely be good at doing underground work.

"Wait a moment." Soon, a person opened the door next to him. He was a middle-aged man with a simple and honest face. He glanced at the three people and saw nothing unusual, so he said, "Come in."

After entering, Su Qingyun looked around casually. Although the houses looked dilapidated and old from the outside, they were a different world inside. The entire house was filled with a wide variety of clothes, which were colorful and of various styles, almost making her dizzy.

Although people in this era mainly wear cold colors such as black, gray and blue, there is still a market for brightly colored clothes, it’s just that the audience is different.

"Come here, Brother Zhang, right? Have a cigarette." On the way here, Wang Meng had already introduced the boss. Su Aimin was very considerate and handed the man a cigarette. It was the popular Golden Deer brand cigarettes here.

"A lot of this stuff is new." Brother Zhang took the cigarette, a smile on his face, and pointed around, saying, "Feel free to look around."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Zhang."

"Yunyun, come pick some with Dad." Seeing Brother Zhang sitting aside, Su Aimin whispered, "See what kind of styles you young people would like?"

"Okay." Su Qingyun began to look at it seriously.

This boss, Brother Zhang, really has connections. He has so many clothes with different patterns and styles. Su Qingyun dares to say that even department stores don’t have so many.

She carefully selected some ready-made clothes, including nylon jackets with shaped cotton lining and overalls suitable for older people, as well as light-colored shirts and floral skirts popular with young people, fashionable bell-bottom pants, thin shirts for summer, and woolen coats for winter...

Wang Meng said that this store has limited purchases, so Su Qingyun didn't pick too many. He just took one of the fashionable styles. Although it was a defective product, it was just a few places with loose threads or stains, which was not a big deal at all.

"Dad, take a look, what do you think?" Su Qingyun showed the clothes in her hand to her father.

"Not bad, not bad." Su Aimin praised. Sure enough, his daughter's taste was better than his. "That's all." He wanted to go and have a look at other places.

Su Aimin turned around and asked Brother Zhang, "Brother Zhang, how much are these clothes for? Name a price."

Brother Zhang took a look and raised an eyebrow. "So many? There are styles for men, women, and children?"

"I can't help it. There are more than ten people in my family, young and old." Su Aimin scratched his head and smiled honestly. "It's rare for me to come to the provincial capital, so I must buy more. It's also rare to come to your place, so I must buy clothes for all seasons."

"Okay." Brother Zhang smiled meaningfully.

He has been doing business for so long and has met countless people. He can clearly see the intentions of these people, but he just doesn't expose them. After all, there are many people like them who want to make a fortune by reselling. As long as it is not excessive and does not involve him, he will turn a blind eye.

"These clothes are all made of good materials and the workmanship is also good. You have taken more than 50 pieces of clothes in total. I don't need cloth coupons here. I will give them to you according to the factory price, which is a total of 212.80 yuan. Forget 2.80 yuan and just give me 210." Brother Zhang calculated the money very quickly and came to the result soon.

More than 200 yuan? The three of them stared at each other in astonishment. Isn't this too expensive?

Seeing their surprise, Brother Zhang blew out a smoke ring and said, "This price is already the lowest. The young lady has good taste and only buys good goods. Take this woolen coat for example. You can go to the department store and have a look. It costs at least 40 yuan, not counting the cloth coupons. I have it for less than 30 yuan, which is already a very cheap price."

Su Qingyun didn't say anything. This price was indeed very reasonable, and many of the clothes they took were thick clothes that required a lot of material.

Su Aimin was not ignorant of the value of things. He took a look at the pile of clothes, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll take them all." It was a rare opportunity like this, and you couldn't catch a wolf without risking your child.

He took out the money, counted it and handed it to Brother Zhang, "Please count it."

"No need." Brother Zhang put the money directly into his pocket. He had a good eye for people. People like Su Aimin were sensible and abided by the rules.

Brother Zhang found a large, light-proof nylon bag and put all his clothes into it. He then handed it to Su Aimin and said, "Try to leave quickly and don't draw attention to yourself."

"We all understand." Wang Meng said.

The three of them carefully looked to see if anyone was passing by in the alley before they dared to go out.

Su Aimin hugged the bag. So many clothes were a bit heavy, but he didn't notice it at all. He just felt a burning sensation in his heart and wanted to go back and work hard immediately.

He thought about the money he had left. Out of the more than 1,000 yuan, 400 yuan was Yuan Nan's money. After deducting these, he still had about 700 yuan left. He didn't need to buy clothes or anything like that. Too much money would easily attract attention.

"Let's go east again." Su Aimin said.

The items sold on the east side were all small gadgets. Su Aimin simply waved his hand and packed a bag of them. These items didn't make much profit, but they were easy to sell.

Finally, there is the grocery store on the north side. Su Aimin is actually the one he is most interested in.
