Chapter 367: The Great Mastery of the Spirit
The next morning, Gao Shufang finally asked that question.
"Gift?" Gao Mingcheng was stunned for a moment.
When Gao Shufang saw her second brother like this, her heart sank.
But because her second brother brought back a color TV, although Gao Shufang was more or less disappointed, she could still accept it.
Forget it, it must be because there were too many things to do, so my second brother forgot about it.
But after Gao Mingcheng was stunned for a few seconds, he remembered and said immediately: "Of course I brought you gifts. There was a small bag yesterday. Did you open it? I'll go and look through it."
Gao Mingcheng said this and went to look through the goods he brought back yesterday.
"Here." Gao Mingcheng finally found it. He opened the bag and found some things inside.
"Duomei, Shufang, I brought you gifts, come and see!" Gao Mingcheng took out two women's handbags.
What gift should I give to a woman? Of course, a bag!
Cure all diseases!
When he accompanied Fan Licheng and his mother and son shopping that day, he was not idle either. He bought two women's handbags. They were not big brand products, but the style and texture of the bags were good.
Originally he didn't know how to choose and thought that just buying a brand name bag would be enough, but then he thought, although people in small towns have little knowledge, there are inevitably some who are more knowledgeable. If he saw many Mei and Gao Shufang carrying brand name bags that are only available in Hong Kong, it would be a bit eye-catching.
These two bags were chosen for him by Sai Yanfei. They are not expensive and suitable for young girls.
"Is this a purse? What a beautiful purse!" Gao Shufang's face was full of surprise. The purse that Gao Mingcheng handed to her was black and made of sheepskin. The fabric was very soft and had a leather tassel and a gold metal zipper, which added a bit of elegance and fashion.
Although it is black, this black is not tacky, but very fashionable.
This bag comes in several colors. Gao Mingcheng originally wanted to take the pink one, but Sai Yanfei didn't let him because pink would make the skin look dark, and carrying a pink bag would make a person look rustic.
So he picked up a bag in black and a white. These two colors are classic and versatile.
Xuanyuemei was very happy when she saw the white leather bag handed to her. Her appearance was slightly better than Gao Shufang's. In addition, her skin had improved since she married Gao Mingcheng. It was not white and tender, but it was not so dark and yellow anymore.
"Luo Li, you have a gift too." Gao Mingcheng is not a person who favors one over the other. Luo Li is not just an ordinary clerk, but also Huang Dazhi's wife.
So Gao Mingcheng also brought a gift for Luo Li, but it was not a bag.
It feels weird to give a bag to someone else's wife.
He took out a big bag of bracelets made of various materials, including crystal, agate, pearl, but most of them were made of broken shells.
Drill holes in some beautiful little conches, then string them together with elastic ropes to make an exotic bracelet.
In addition to small conches, there are also shells, but the shells are larger, so you have to crush the shells first, and then pick out some beautiful pieces to string together.
These shell bracelets are the cheapest, so Gao Mingcheng directly wholesaled a large bag.
Gao Mingcheng took out the expensive ones first and asked Luo Li to choose one.
Luo Li was stunned by the dazzling array of bracelets. She didn't dare to choose one for a moment and instinctively declined: "This is too expensive. I don't want it."
"It's okay, just pick one. Putting aside the relationship between Dazhi and me, you have been working diligently in the store these days, and I have to reward you." Gao Mingcheng advised Luo Li to choose, and also let Gao Shufang and Xuanyue choose.
Crystal, pearl and agate, although more expensive, are not expensive gemstones, and most pearls have flaws.
Manyu Mei was overwhelmed by the choices and didn't know what to choose, so Gao Mingcheng simply gave her a bunch of each.
Manyu Mei was delighted and smiled foolishly at Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Shufang and Luo Li both smelled the sour and rotten odor. When they looked at each other, Gao Shufang even made a face at Luo Li.
Gao Mingcheng noticed Gao Shufang's funny expression, coughed lightly, and simply gave Gao Shufang a string of each. After all, she was his own sister, so it would not be a loss to give her something.
"Thank you, second brother!" Gao Shufang thanked him happily, her voice crisp and sweet.
Luo Li's eyes moved across the three bracelets, and she was very conflicted. Which one should she choose?
In the end, she chose Pearl's.
Pearls are much more famous than crystals and agates. Although pearls have some flaws, they have a good luster and look very good when worn casually.
There is also an ancient folk recipe that says grinding pearls into powder can be used as medicine.
"Take three of these shell bracelets, one each for you and your sisters. They are fun to wear." Gao Mingcheng took three more shell bracelets from the collection and handed them to Luo Li.
Luo Li didn't expect that her sister also had a gift, and she was very touched for a moment.
Gao Mingcheng picked and chose again, kept some, and then handed the rest to Xuanyuemei, saying, "These are for your sister, you can choose them yourself. The rest can be sold in the store."
"Hey." Manyu Mei replied with a smile.
After distributing all the gifts, Gao Mingcheng simply sorted out the goods he brought back yesterday. He hung up everything that could be sold and moved the autumn clothes to the third floor first.
Of course, he would take out one set of each autumn outfit and bring it to Gaojia Village, asking Dong Feixia to copy it.
The morning passed in a hurry. As the reputation of the Xinxin Clothing Store buying a color TV gradually spread, many customers came this morning, but most of them were curious about the color TV.
It’s a pity that Gao Mingcheng hid the color TV in the shed in the backyard and did not put it in the store in the front.
In addition to ordinary curious customers, there were also some old customers of the store, all of whom were wealthy people in the county. They also asked Gao Mingcheng about color TVs, and noticed that new clothes were hung in the clothing store.
These clothes are extremely unique, both in style and fabric.
Many people just think these clothes look good, but only they can see the design sense of these clothes.
So they asked one after another, and when they learned that the goods were from Hong Kong, their enthusiasm for buying increased greatly. Even though the price was high, many pieces were sold in just one morning.
Gao Mingcheng is quite good at doing business. He gives a string of shell bracelets to anyone who buys expensive clothes.
Things like shells are very common at the seaside and no one cares about them, but for people in the mainland, they are still quite novel.
Wearing a shell bracelet, you feel fashionable and stylish.
Gao Mingcheng saw that they were so satisfied with the shell bracelets that they didn't even think the clothes were expensive. So after they left, he said to Xuanmei, "We won't sell these bracelets anymore. We'll give them all away! We'll give one to every customer who spends a lot of money in the store, especially to regular customers."
Many beauties already knew the price of the shell bracelet, so after hearing this, they didn't feel bad and just nodded in agreement.
Giving gifts to customers occasionally can strengthen their recognition of the store.
"How about this, we simply create a membership file and convert the amount of consumption of each customer into points. At the end of the year, we will settle the points. Different points can be used to receive different gifts." Gao Mingcheng thought of a trick that was often used in stores in later generations.
The trick is not new, but it works.
Sometimes, customers exchange their points for gifts, so when they need to buy clothes, the first place they think of is Xinxin Clothing Store.
Otherwise, with so many clothing stores around, who wouldn’t care who you buy from?
Xuanyuemei didn't understand the reason behind this at the moment, but she was willing to obey and do as she was told, which was a good thing.
So under the guidance of Gao Mingcheng, the store owner, store manager and staff all learned the membership system.
In the afternoon, business was pretty good again because some customers heard that the store had clothes from Hong Kong and that there were shell bracelets for free, so they came to choose.
At the end of the day, the turnover was surprisingly good!
School starts tomorrow and I have to get up early to send my child to kindergarten. I haven’t updated in the evening. I will write during the day tomorrow.
