Chapter 26 Selling Leggings
"Half a month ago, I was delivering goods at the Jiaoxian market when I ran into you catching a thief." A smile appeared on Liu Wenji's stern face. He put away his account book, pulled up a stool and sat down, then spoke with interest. "I wanted to go over and help, but I was in a hurry to deliver the goods and couldn't stop on the road. When I came back after unloading the goods, I heard from Sun Ping that the thief had been caught."
"So Boss Liu was there that day!" Su Jiaojiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She suspected that she had opened a hidden copy when she went to Jiaoxian Fair. Not only did she meet Qin Xiuming, but she was also seen by Liu Wenzhi.
Is it possible that the people and things from previous lives will always meet again and again?
However, since they were acquaintances, she felt she could still negotiate for a lower price.
Every penny saved is a penny earned.
"How do you know my last name is Liu?" This time it was Liu Wenzhi's turn to be confused.
"It's in your account book." Su Jiaojiao pointed at the account book in his hand. She didn't actually see the words clearly. Liu Wenji flipped the book over and took a look. He chuckled and asked, "Are you still going to the Jiaoxian Fair?"
"I'll go when I'm free. I'm planning to sell goods at the snack street near No. 1 Middle School." Su Jiaojiao was thinking about how to bargain with him. One thing is one thing, acquaintance is acquaintance, and business is business.
Without saying anything, Liu Wenji counted the leggings on the stall and asked, "How many pairs do you want?"
"That depends on the wholesale price the boss gives us!" Su Jiaojiao only had 300 yuan in her hand, 280 yuan of which was the living expenses she asked Su Houli for.
"How about this, I have something to do today and need to go back to Mo City. I'll give you my lowest price and you can take all the remaining 122 of them!"
Liu Wenji took out a calculator and punched in a few numbers: 122×9.5=1159. He showed it to Su Jiaojiao. "I'm sure you won't find this price anywhere in the entire clothing fair, including the Mocheng wholesale market. Even if you do, it's definitely not of this quality. Just take it with confidence."
"But I don't have that much money right now..." Su Jiaojiao was tempted, but she was short of money. However, the 9.5 yuan a pair of pants was very tempting to her, so she still wanted to fight for it. "Boss Liu, I'm Su Jiaojiao, a student at Jiaoxian No. 1 Middle School. If you trust me, Boss Liu, I promise to send the payment to you in Mocheng in a few days."
The clothing fair will be over in a week.
If she wants to stock up again, she will definitely go to Mo City.
Mocheng is more than 100 kilometers away from Jiaoxian.
Hualian Shopping Mall has a special bus to the Melbourne Clothing Wholesale Market, which takes more than two hours and costs 25 yuan.
"Okay, that's settled then." Liu Wenji was very happy. He wrote down his phone number for Su Jiaojiao and handed her the account book and pen. "Write an IOU and send the payment over whenever you're free. If you're really busy, just call me and I'll come to you to pick it up. Anyway, I'll be coming to Jiaoxian soon."
Sometimes, when the stall owners at the Jiaoxian Fair didn't want to go to Mocheng, they would call him and ask him to deliver the goods over and they would pay for the transportation.
He will come to deliver the goods when he is free, but the time is irregular.
"Thank you, Boss Liu, for your trust." Su Jiaojiao counted the money she brought and paid for thirty pairs of leggings, which amounted to two hundred and eighty-five yuan.
She wrote an IOU for the remaining 874 yuan, signed it, and took the ink from his stall and pressed her fingerprint on it.
Seeing how serious she was about her work, Liu Wenji smiled and said, "I trust people who are brave enough to do what is right. You can even help someone you don't know to get their wallet back. You're definitely not someone who's deadbeat. Sun Ping and I are old acquaintances, so we can be considered acquaintances."
"Don't worry, Boss Liu. I'll still come to your place to stock up in the future." Su Jiaojiao began to count the goods. Twenty pieces were strung together in groups with ropes. There were exactly two pieces left after six groups. "We do business frequently. Credit is the most important thing."
One hundred and twenty-two pairs of leggings are quite heavy.
Liu Wenji put the goods into a snakeskin bag for her and said, "My car can't leave, so I can't deliver the goods to you. You have to find a way yourself!"
This was no problem for Su Jiaojiao. She put the goods on Liu Wenzhi's stall, went to the park entrance to find a red three-wheeled taxi, and spent five yuan to have her bag of goods delivered to the snack street opposite No. 1 Middle School.
There are shops on both sides of the snack street.
Mobile vendors are not allowed to set up stalls and sell goods in front of other people's shops. Only vendors pushing mobile carts can move through the crowd and sell goods along the way.
There are many people shopping in the afternoon, and many people selling goods. The whole street is noisy and crowded, even more lively than a clothing fair.
There was no space on the main street, and there was an urban village at the end of the snack street. Su Jiaojiao and the old men and women squeezed together on the roadside of the urban village to set up a stall. She didn't have much space, so she just spread a snakeskin bag on the ground and piled leggings on top.
In her previous life, when she was working at the Jiali Garment Factory, she sold the remaining samples at the factory gate like this.
"Su Jiaojiao, why are you here?" Su Jiaojiao had just sat down when she saw their class monitor Chen Yi walking over from the alley not far away. Chen Yi was about 1.8 meters tall, with good skin. There were no acne spots on his face that were common among people of this age. He was the male god of their class.
But Su Jiaojiao was always focused on her studies and never spoke to her idol.
Now that they had met, Su Jiaojiao greeted him openly: "I'm selling goods here."
Chen Yi looked down at the pile of leggings in front of her and asked in disbelief, "You're still doing business?"
"Yes!" Su Jiaojiao smiled, "I'm working part-time to pay for my studies!"
It is not shameful to make money with your own hands.
She is not afraid of being known by others.
Soon, a group of people gathered around and squatted down to look at the pants. The leggings were very stretchy and generally one size fits all, so people of normal body shape could wear them.
The price that Su Jiaojiao sells is the same as at the clothing fair, sixteen for one and thirty-two for two.
Yoga pants have been popular since the past two years, and they have remained popular for a long time, and the prices are relatively transparent.
In the past few years, the price was higher, with a pair of pants selling for thirty or twenty-five yuan. Now, the price is generally around twenty, eighteen or fifteen yuan.
Su Jiaojiao has always been committed to selling at low prices and not too high a price.
With so many people around, Su Jiaojiao didn't bother to talk to Chen Yi.
Instead, Chen Yi took the initiative to step forward and asked: "How can I help you?"
Su Jiaojiao was about to decline when she suddenly remembered that she didn't bring any plastic bags. She said to Chen Yi, "I really need help with something, class monitor. Could you please go to the classroom and get me the bundle of plastic bags from the hole in my desk? I need them."
She was in such a hurry that she forgot.
When selling pants, you have to pack them in plastic bags.
"I'll go right away." Chen Yi took a long step and immediately walked towards the school.
In less than ten minutes, he brought the plastic bag over. Su Jiaojiao thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, squad leader. Thank you so much."
"You're welcome. Just go ahead and do your thing." Chen Yi stood beside Su Jiaojiao and watched for a while. He felt it was very interesting and stepped forward to help pack the bags. The two of them were busy for more than an hour and sold 26 pairs of pants.
Su Jiaojiao counted the money happily: "Class monitor, I will treat you to a meal later."
The male god has always been high and mighty, but he suddenly fell to the ground.
It's quite interesting too.
