Chapter 176 New Year, New Atmosphere
Originally, Su Jiaojiao predicted that this batch of leather jackets could be sold until the end of the year.
Unexpectedly, the market was even hotter than expected, and this batch of leather jackets sold very well in Hualian Department Store.
Both leather jackets cost 300 yuan, but Su Jiaojiao's is more cost-effective in terms of both style and quality.
The higher the price-performance ratio, the more popular it will be.
Chen Guilan hadn't expected the sales to be so good. "We should ask the provincial capital to send us another batch of leather materials so we can continue making some at Natus. We still have over 200 pieces left, which is not enough to sell."
Although it’s not selling as fast as it did on October 1st, we can still sell ten or eight pieces a day.
The main reason is that the weather is getting colder, and these leather jackets are single-layer clothing, so they sell slowly.
But the following year, there will be another big sales in the early spring.
Su Jiaojiao also had this idea. She counted the money she had, discussed it with Chen Guilan, and deposited the money for the Century Jiayuan house into a passbook, waiting to pay the full amount.
Leave 10,000 yuan for household expenses, such as buying furniture.
The remaining money is all used for leather materials.
Before, Chen Guilan would definitely not agree, as she would think it was too risky. But now she knows that leather jackets are best-sellers and there will be no shortage of stock, so she does not object to investing the remaining money.
Su Jiaojiao called Du Pengfei and asked him to send another 2,000 kilograms of leather.
Du Pengfei said that pig skin is in short supply now and the price has increased. It is no longer available at 28 yuan. The current shipping price is 30 yuan, and it will take at least a week to arrive.
Su Jiaojiao said it was no problem and asked him to arrange the shipment as soon as possible.
She went to ask Nat and Ding Mei if they could arrange time to make another batch of leather jackets for her.
Ding Mei had a lot of work on her hands, and she didn't want to take the order at first, but they had already completed Su Jiaojiao's order, so she didn't refuse it. She just said that they would try their best to arrange it for her and asked her if she could wait.
Su Jiaojiao said she could wait.
If the leather jackets are sold out, she will buy some down jackets for Chen Guilan to sell. There is no end to making money, so just be content.
Ding Mei knew that her leather jackets were selling very well, and she complained to her: "Why didn't you make more? If you made 10,000 pieces, would they be enough to sell?"
Su Jiaojiao just smiled.
She also wanted to do more, but she didn’t have enough capital at the time!
Even now, she and Du Pengfei are not close enough to buy from him on credit. If she could buy from him on credit, she would definitely have made a year's worth of leather jacket orders.
As she spoke, she sighed again: "It's a pity that my husband Miao hasn't worked hard in the past two years. I'm the only one supporting the family and the factory. It's really not easy for us women!"
"Sister Ding, the leather jacket market is good now. We must seize the opportunity and work hard for a few years." Su Jiaojiao has been working in the leather jacket business at Naters for so long, and has only met Lao Miao once.
He was dressed in a sleek manner, chatting and laughing with someone as he got into a car. No one knew what he was busy with all day.
Sister Chang said that Lao Miao is in charge of sales, so he is not often in the factory.
He also said that Lao Miao looked honest, but was actually not honest at all, and that he was a gambler.
Over the years, Ding Mei had fought with him many times because of this matter, and said that if it weren't for Ding Mei's support, the factory would have closed down long ago.
"Well, that's what I said." Ding Mei sighed, "I want to do my job well, but I don't know what my husband is busy doing outside all day. Even sales matters have me taking care of them."
Su Jiaojiao didn't want to comment on the couple's affairs, so she said nothing more.
All in all, leather jackets still have two or three years of good times ahead of them.
By the year 2000, the sales of leather jackets had begun to decline, and it was no longer possible to invest in leather jackets. The knitted clothing market remained enduring.
Chen Guilan could smile even in her dreams when she thought that such a good house in Century Jiayuan did not require a loan. She cared about the delivery time more than Su Jiaojiao.
Wang Jian was working on a construction site. Chen Xiaohong was well-informed and said she had inquired about it. She knew that if he paid the down payment around New Year's Day, he would be able to move into the house by the end of the year.
He also said that in order to meet the deadline, Wang Jian and his team had not had a rest for three months.
Chen Xiaohong is absolutely right.
The day before New Year's Day, Su Jiaojiao received a notice to pay the down payment. Wang Hua came to tell her in person. He also said that Lu Jingyou had returned to the capital and was no longer in Jiao County.
Last month, Lu Jingyou was suddenly recalled to the imperial capital by Mr. Lu, who asked him to be responsible for the construction in the northwest region. He has not returned yet.
Qi Heng was the only one in charge of Qingyuan's business, and he often complained to Wang Hua that if Lu Jingyou didn't come back, he would be exhausted to death.
Su Jiaojiao didn't ask Lu Jingyou, but directly told Wang Hua that she was paying in full, and asked him to come and take her to the bank to withdraw money tomorrow, and then go to the sales office together.
Wang Hua was stunned for a moment, then agreed readily.
Oh my god, the full amount!
The little girl is so amazing!
It is easier to process full payment.
With Wang Hua personally accompanying her, Su Jiaojiao signed several contracts with ease. The house was registered under Chen Guilan's name, and the next step was to wait for the property certificate.
Chen Guilan insisted that the house be under Su Jiaojiao's name: "I'm so old, what do I need a house for? I'll have to transfer the ownership in the future. It's better to just put it in your name."
"Mom, this is your fixed asset." Su Jiaojiao insisted on putting it in Chen Guilan's name. "I'll buy a house in the future, and I can enjoy preferential policies for the first house. You don't have to worry about this."
After signing the contract, Chen Guilan left. She was anxious to return to Hualian Department Store to sell goods. There were many people during the New Year's Day holiday, so she could sell a lot of goods.
Su Jiaojiao originally wanted to go back with her, but Wang Hua stopped her: "Don't worry, there's still something to do!"
He took Su Jiaojiao back to the office and mysteriously took out a gift box for her: "Congratulations on becoming the owner of our Century Garden. This is a gift we randomly give to customers who pay in full. It's a small gift, don't be disgusted."
"Wang Zhu is so polite! No one would despise a gift." Su Jiaojiao didn't expect such a surprise. When she opened it, she saw a Motorola phone. She asked suspiciously, "Such an expensive gift?"
"Our sales staff discussed it and planned some New Year's Day surprises!" Wang Hua said calmly, "Boss Lu isn't here, so we can only give one away. Instead of giving it to someone else, we'd rather give it to you. As for the others..."
At this point, Wang Hua pointed to the tape recorder, fishing rod, pots and pans on the table and said, "Those are the gifts."
"Thank you, Wang Zu..." Su Jiaojiao didn't think much about it. She was of course happy to get the phone for free.
But she didn't have a strong desire for a mobile phone. At that time, mobile phones were not smart phones and could only send text messages and answer calls.
And the monthly rent is quite expensive, about fifty or sixty yuan, and it is charged in both directions, and calls are also expensive.
At the end of the month, it would be about a hundred yuan!
After chatting for a few minutes, Su Jiaojiao stood up to say goodbye. As she left the sales office, there was a thud above her head, and a shower of colorful confetti fell. "Congratulations to this owner for winning our special prize, a Motorola phone."
Su Jiaojiao was startled.
Didn’t Wang Hua say it was random? Why did they even set up a lottery?
There were many people standing at the door of the sales office, and they all started to make a fuss:
"Really? What phone?"
"Yeah, buy a house and get a cell phone for free?"
"Little girl, take it out and let me see it!"
Su Jiaojiao had no choice but to take out her phone and show it to everyone, smiling slightly. "Thank you, Jiahe Group. I'm honored to have won your special prize. I wish Jiahe's houses will sell well and continue to prosper. I also wish all the owners and neighbors of Century Jiayuan a successful career and happy families."
"Good, well said!" Wang Hua led the applause.
New year, new atmosphere. Su Jiaojiao’s speech is simply perfect.
He said that this lottery was very necessary, and that the mobile phone should be given to Su Jiaojiao. No one else could have such an effect!
Everyone applauded and crowded into the sales office to see other gifts.
In fact, they don’t have a strong desire for mobile phones. They all know that the things are expensive and they can’t afford to buy them but maintain them. They are not as economical as pots and pans.
Su Jiaojiao then squeezed out of the crowd and took the bus to Hualian Shopping Mall to find Chen Guilan.
Sure enough, the phone wasn’t taken for nothing, I almost didn’t react.
