The popularity of secondhand goods signifies conservation and environmental protection; allowing others to use things you no longer need is a virtue.
Many people in later generations also dealt in secondhand goods, but the problem is that it's difficult to guarantee the origin of so-called secondhand vintage clothing. And overseas, many secondhand clothes are even salvaged from garbage dumps or from the bodies of the dead in hospitals.
Reputable merchants will sort, sterilize, and disinfect clothing, while unscrupulous vendors will skip all these steps and sell the clothes immediately.
Wearing this kind of clothing carries certain risks.
Shen Zhuyu was stunned by what she said. It was the first time she had ever heard that second-hand clothes came from this source. The thought that some of the clothes had been worn by the dead made her uncomfortable, so she gave up the idea of selling second-hand goods.
"Let's go take a look over there."
Hong Kong-style shirts are popular in Guangzhou, and their fashion sense is even higher than that of clothing in Wenzhou. In the Wenzhou wholesale market, Chu Yu only likes the clothes from Boss Chen's shop. There are many merchants in the Guangzhou wholesale market who sell high-end goods, and their clothes are second to none in terms of style and fabric.
"Beautiful lady! Come and take a look!" the boss called out.
Chen Zhuyu was delighted. "He called me 'pretty girl,' shall we go and take a look?"
Chu Yu let her have her way, since today was just a day to spend money.
The bald boss's stall was rather deserted, but when he saw customers come in, he greeted them with a smile: "Two beautiful ladies, the quality of my goods is very good, and the styles are all from Hong Kong and Paris. Whatever you want, I have it!"
"Do you have fleece-lined skinny jeans?" Chu Yu asked.
"Fleece lining? You mean adding cotton padding inside the pants?"
"That's roughly the idea. Adding a layer of fleece to the pants makes them warmer than thin pants, which is suitable for the northern climate."
"You mean cashmere pants?" The shopkeeper actually took out a pair. "The inside is cashmere, not knitted wool. They're much warmer than wool pants, and the outer layer is waterproof and windproof, keeping you completely covered up."
The downside of cashmere pants is that they can make you look heavier, but these pants have a slim fit and the fabric is straight, so they don't look bulky to the naked eye. Chu Yu reached in and touched them, and in a short while, her palms were covered with a thin layer of sweat. This cashmere is really warm; the material is thick and soft. In the northern winter, adding a pair of thermal underwear underneath would be enough.
