After settling into their accommodations, everyone was a bit tired and decided to rest for a while before heading out to the market for further investigation in the afternoon.
Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun's room was simply yet warmly furnished. The window faced the community garden, offering a view of the lush trees and flowers. Lin Qing leaned against the window, enjoying the warm, humid southern air, feeling exceptionally relaxed.
“Brother Nanxun, Guangzhou is really something else. I didn’t expect the real estate market to start taking off so early.”
Lin Qing looked out the window and said with a sigh.
"There is cooperation with Hong Kong and foreign investment here, so it's normal for the development to be faster."
Nan Xun thought for a moment and understood the reason. So he smiled and explained to Lin Qing.
Lin Qing nodded upon hearing this, "I see! It seems that Guangzhou's reputation as an economically developed city is well-deserved."
“Brother Nanxun, if we find a suitable house this time, we can buy one. Then when we come to Guangzhou again, we'll have a place to stay.”
Lin Qing suggested with a smile.
"Okay, we can look for it after we finish our purchase."
Gu Nanxun smiled and pinched Lin Qing's nose, saying affectionately.
Lin Qing reached out and took Gu Nanxun's hand off her nose. "No need. If we come across it, we'll buy it. If we don't, there's no need to force it. After all, our main development area isn't here in the future."
"Okay, whatever you say."
"Brother Nanxun, are you familiar with this place?"
Although Lin Qing was very tired, her mind was unusually clear, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.
Gu Nanxun shook his head. "I'm not familiar with Guangshi now. I'm familiar with Guangshi from when I was alive. There are some differences between here and there."
"Where should we go this afternoon?"
Lin Qing sat on the bed, watching Gu Nanxun pack his luggage, and asked a question.
"We can first go to the local wholesale market to check out the market conditions. Then, we can contact some manufacturers to see if we can buy directly from them, which would be more cost-effective."
Lin Qing nodded. "That's what I was thinking too. We can go check out the clothing market and the electronics market first; the demand should be greatest in those two markets."
"Hmm, let's see if Brother Wang, whom Xiao Zhang mentioned, is back this afternoon. We can ask him to take us there! Judging from what Xiao Zhang said, Dongzi must have been here more than once and should be quite familiar with this area."
Lin Qing nodded in agreement. The two tidied up briefly and then lay down on the bed to rest.
Lin Qing thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but unexpectedly she fell asleep without realizing it. When she woke up, it was already past 2 p.m.
When Lin Qing got up, Gu Nanxun was no longer by her side. Lin Qing got up, washed up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs. Everyone was downstairs except for herself, and Brother Wang, whom Xiao Zhang had mentioned, had also returned.
"Nanxun, when did you guys get up?"
Lin Qing said as she walked downstairs.
"Everyone has just gotten up, come down and eat, I've saved some food for you."
Gu Nanxun looked at Lin Qing and said with a smile.
After finishing her meal, Lin Qing and the others followed the "Brother Wang" that Xiao Zhang had mentioned and took a car to the wholesale market.
After resting for a while, Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun went downstairs and saw that the others were also coming down one after another. Xiao Zhang had already prepared a car and was waiting for them.
"Brother Gu, this is the largest clothing wholesale market in Guangzhou."
As soon as they got out of the car, Brother Wang, whom Xiao Zhang had mentioned, introduced him to Gu Nanxun.
Gu Nanxun nodded, and then walked into the clothing wholesale market with Lin Qing and the others.
The clothing wholesale market in Guangzhou truly lives up to its reputation. As soon as you enter the market, you can see all kinds of clothing stalls. Men's clothing includes shirts, trousers, and shorts, while women's clothing includes blouses, dresses, and trousers. The fabrics are also diverse, including polyester, cotton, linen, and even silk. The colors are also much more vibrant, unlike the streets of Jingsi, where black, white, and gray are the most common colors.
Colors like white, light blue, light gray, army green, dark blue, and dark gray are common for men's shirts and trousers. White and light blue polyester shirts, and army green and dark blue polyester-cotton blend trousers are also quite common.
Women's clothing comes in a wider variety of colors, with light pink, light yellow, light purple, and light blue being common choices.
There are some mixed colors, such as a light pink dress with a small floral print, a light blue polyester short-sleeved top, and a collar in another color.
Besides the light and elegant colors, there are also some relatively bright colors, such as red and green. However, these colors usually appear in some floral patterns or as decorative colors for parts such as collars and cuffs.
Of course, in addition to these light colors, there are also dark colors, such as black and dark blue women's skirts and trousers.
Lu Xianghong and Xu Fengjiao stared intently. Lu Xianghong was skilled at making clothes, while Xu Fengjiao studied fashion design. The clothes in front of me broadened their horizons even more.
After looking at the clothes, they went to the electronics wholesale market next door.
Although it was called an electronics wholesale market, the variety of electronic products available at that time was actually quite limited, unlike the diverse range available in later years. The main electronic products on the market at that time included radios, tape recorders, watches, telephones, walkie-talkies, flashlights, calculators, as well as some electronic components and measuring instruments.
The electronics wholesale market was far smaller than the clothing wholesale market, and Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun quickly toured it.
Lin Qing also wrote down some things she wanted in her notebook.
"Let's go back first! Tonight, everyone can pack up what they want, and tomorrow Xiao Wang will take us to the factory."
Before they knew it, everyone had spent the afternoon sightseeing. Gu Nanxun glanced at the time and realized it was getting late, so he made a suggestion.
Everyone nodded in agreement. Although Xu Fengjiao wanted to shop around some more, she remained silent once everyone had agreed.
"Let's take care of business first! After we're done, everyone can move around freely and buy whatever they want."
Seeing Xu Fengjiao's hesitant expression, Lin Qing smiled and said.
"Okay, I agree!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Fengjiao immediately said happily.
"Since we're out here, why don't we have dinner before going back? It's already time for dinner anyway."
As everyone was walking back together, Wang Haoran suddenly spoke.
Gu Nanxun nodded upon hearing this, then looked at Xiao Wang.
Xiao Wang immediately understood. "Brother Gu, there's a really famous restaurant here, and the food is especially delicious. Shall I take you there?"
