Chapter 37 Small commodities also have their day

Hang Jingshu actually felt embarrassed to promote someone's clothes without ever buying them.

But the opportunity was fleeting, and Hang Jingshu did not give himself time to be shy and directly stated his purpose: "Ms. Liu, I know this is a bit presumptuous, but please take a look at what I brought."

Liu Kangyuan's smile froze on her face, and she asked in confusion, "Do you have new drawings?"

Hang Jingshu took out several small fabrics from the cloth bag. There were small peach blossoms, small persimmons, and small ingots. They were all cute round things.

The knitted gadgets were brightly colored and looked cute when put together. Hang Jingshu, feeling that it didn't matter if he was rejected, began to introduce them to Liu Kangyuan: "These are all the designs I came up with when I was free. They can be used as keychains and pendants. Do you have any interest in them?"

I think Liu Kangyuan was able to open a store in the city so quickly because of her unique vision.

In my previous life, I had never done any business except hanging around the stove.

This is just her first try, and Liu Kangyuan is the only one she knows who can open a store and do business.

The family is short of money now, and all Hang Jingshu can do is to seize every opportunity to make money.

"This little thing is very cute, but what do you mean?" Liu Kangyuan did have a good impression of Hang Jingshu at first sight, but that didn't mean she wanted everything.

Girls who can start a business are all people with unique vision, who dare to think and act, and at the same time, they are not kind-hearted like saints.

Business is about money transactions, and it is normal not to talk about feelings in business.

Hang Jingshu bit his lip, his eyes eager: "I was wondering if I could do business with you."

The little gadget in my hand is a plump little tomato, orange in color, with a green stem. There are white highlights on the tomato, which makes it even cuter.

Liu Kangyuan thought it was quite pleasing. "How many of these do you have?"

Hang Jingshu smiled slightly and opened the bundle. There were only five pieces of each kind inside, and if one piece was included, there would be no more than twenty pieces in total.

"I came here today just to give it a try. I haven't woven much, but I can draw a lot of drawings," Hang Jingshu quickly handed everything in his hand to Liu Kangyuan to see.

It has not been open for long yet, and people are still focusing on food, clothing, housing and transportation. As for small toys and decorations, they are still in their infancy.

Hang Jingshu saw the news about Chouzhou Market in the newspaper. Unlike the endless Chouzhou in later generations, the current Chouzhou does not have a wholesale city where one can visit all the shops in a day. It only has a designated area called a small department store.

The influence is not that widespread yet.

The small department store that opened in 1982 experienced rapid development. It was not until the end of 1984 that the area was reopened and the Chouzhou Small Commodity Market was built.

Only when people have money in their hands will they start to pay attention to spiritual life.

Things like small ornaments and dolls may not seem impressive, but if you put them into practice, you can make a lot of money.

Hang Jingshu wanted to find a job for his parents that would allow them to gain a foothold in the county, so he decided to start with small things.

The spring breeze is gentle and will blow on every piece of land. As for whether you can seize the opportunity, it depends on your personal ability.

"So how much do you plan to get for this?" Liu Kangyuan thought this business was promising.

The main reason is that her main sales target here is young girls, and everyone likes these exquisite and cute little gadgets.

You can sell them together with clothes, or you can buy some bags and leather goods to sell, and add small dolls as embellishments, and you will probably be able to sell a lot of them.

This idea is similar to that of clothing stores in later generations. Many trendy brand stores display various small accessories, from shoes, hats, socks, to bag decorations, which are dazzling.

If five out of ten people take one with them, that is new sales.

Finally, Hang Jingshu and Liu Kangyuan reached an agreement that the twenty small pendants were packaged and sold to Liu Kangyuan for ten yuan.

As for how much Liu Kangyuan could sell, Hang Jingshu didn't care.

These days it is very common to see products with a cost of just a few dollars being sold for dozens of dollars, or products with a cost of just a few dozen dollars being sold for hundreds of dollars. This is taking advantage of the information gap.

I sold my doll for fifty cents as a preliminary test.

As for Liu Kangyuan, Hang Jingshu estimated that she could buy about two yuan.

Even higher than this.

If it were in the village, no one would buy it. Wouldn’t it be good to eat meat for 50 cents?

But people in the market are willing to do so.

Rural people work very hard and only earn a few dozen yuan a month, but in the city, the wages in well-performing units can be as high as over a hundred yuan, or even two hundred yuan.

If both husband and wife are working, and the one who is the younger one in the family is responsible for the expenses, they will buy not only a pendant worth two dollars, but also a coat worth several hundred dollars.

Once upon a time, someone could make money just by working in the dirt in the suburbs.

Small accessories are ever-changing, have lower costs than selling ready-made clothes, are more flexible and can be changed, and Wang Silan can do it herself.

It is not enough for a family to work hard on its own; the whole family must work together.

As for my third brother Hang Chenggang, he wrote to me two days ago saying that he had found a tutoring job.

Nowadays, college students are very popular and the tuition fees for private tutors are also considerable.

As long as the whole family moves forward together, Hang Jingshu doesn't believe that life will be bad!

Today's sales plan was very successful. Hang Jingshu was in a good mood and cooked several dishes when he got home, making everyone happy to eat.

While waiting for dinner, Hang Jingshu made thin rolls, stir-fried bean sprouts, spicy and sour potato shreds, and braised pork shreds.

Cut the remaining spinach and carrots into shreds and blanch them in hot water, then add the cucumbers freshly picked from the garden.

I also cut a plate of the brine beef I made last night and paired it with sesame chili oil, which was rich and fragrant.

Finally, fill the gaps with some thin lump soup and it’s another delicious meal.

Yan Chengan ate six rolls and drank two bowls of dumpling soup by himself.

Gu Zhengguo ate eight rolls and patted his stomach while eating, "Xiaohang's cooking skills are really good!"

When Hang Jingshu was closing the market, he glanced at Yan Chengan inconspicuously.

It is an established fact that he has high skills, but whether he will get a high score in the exam is still uncertain.

It was the first exam after his rebirth. Although he had answered most of the questions on the paper, Hang Jingshu still felt unsure.

I don’t know how many points I can get.

Unfortunately, Hang Jingshu looked at him several times, but couldn't see any unnecessary expressions on Yan Chengan's face.

Apart from the satisfied expression when he was eating and the look of hopelessness after working out, Hang Jingshu seldom saw any other expression on Yan Chengan's face.

He is truly a genius, with his face paralyzed to this extent.

It is said that geniuses are different from ordinary people. After a period of contact, Hang Jingshu found that this was indeed the case.

Yan Chengan is only 20 years old this year, but he can enter the confidential unit. It can be seen that he must have been a brilliant talent when he was young.

Hang Jingshu also found it amazing that such a person could supervise the exam.

By the evening, when Hang Jingshu had cleaned up the kitchen, he still hadn't gotten an answer.

Instead, Gu Zhengguo came over and talked to Hang Jingshu, "Xiao Hang, do you want to know your grades?"

Compared to Gu Zhengguo's previous fake business smile, Hang Jingshu feels that he is more real now.

After hearing what he said, Hang Jingshu also realized that if he wanted to know the result in advance, he had to pay something first, so he simply asked directly: "What do you want to eat tomorrow?"
