Lin Qingping also managed to borrow an iron to iron the clothes flat and then prepared to sell them.
The iron at that time was very simple. It was just a piece of iron with charcoal and water inside to generate heat for ironing.
And at this time, the remaining clothes also arrived at the county.
Du Gen had many connections and had an acquaintance in the county. He gave the address of this acquaintance to Section Chief Fu, who contacted a truck going the same way and delivered the clothes to his acquaintance. The acquaintance sent a letter asking them to pick up the goods.
Lin Qingping couldn't help but sigh that he was used to the speed and convenience of the mobile phone era, but it was really inconvenient now.
For example, if they were to sell these 100 pieces of clothing now, they would still have to consider the issue of transportation.
But there are only one hundred pieces. How can they get these one hundred pieces back? Just get them out anyway!
It was at this time that everyone realized that Lin Qingping’s goal was not to go to the county, but to sell in the provincial capital!
Gu Youlian had been to the county only a handful of times in her life, and going to the provincial capital was something she dared not even think about!
How bold!
But there was no possibility of stopping them, and Gu Youlian could only rush to the provincial capital with everyone else anxiously. At the same time, she felt a sense of excitement and anticipation for some reason, because she was going to the provincial capital!
Zhiyuan also went with them.
Lin Qingping wanted to take him there to broaden his horizons, but later on, they realized what a correct decision it was to take Zhiyuan with them!
Not to mention how hard it was for the group to carry these one hundred pieces of clothing and take several special vehicles to the provincial capital. They arrived early in the morning. Lin Qingping first found a place for everyone to tidy themselves up, at least to wash clean and put their clothes neatly in place, and then went straight to the department store in the provincial capital.
To sell their clothes.
But the mission started off badly.
Lin Qingping took Du Gen and her elder sister to the counter with a few samples of clothing. The salesperson just glanced at them and ignored them.
Dugan was unwilling to give up and kept selling, "Our clothes are of new styles, not available locally, and cheap, why don't you take a look?"
Lin Qingping also said, "Could you please introduce your director to me? We'll just meet once and leave."
The salesperson just rolled his eyes.
"Really, we have a letter of introduction..." Lin Qingping took out the letter of introduction issued by the branch secretary.
The salesperson got impatient and started to chase the people away, "Who are you? You country bumpkins, go away, or I'll send someone to chase you away if you don't leave!"
"Why are you like this?" Gu Youlian thrust her waist forward and was about to go forward and start a fight.
Lin Qingping stopped her and said, "Forget it, let's go to another one."
However, they changed several companies in a row, but each time they ended up being done to them.
When they arrived at the last house, Gu Youlian was so angry that she refused to go in and no longer held out hope. She and Zhiyuan stood guarding the clothes at the door, anxious and worried, with red eyes and almost crying.
Lin Qingping comforted her with a few words and led Du Gen and the second sister in. However, before they had taken a few steps, they heard the sound of people arguing at the door.
She hurried back and saw a man pointing at Gu Youlian and cursing her. Gu Youlian was crying in panic. Zhiyuan was standing in front of Gu Youlian, as if he was protecting her, but he was just a child after all, and his face was full of panic.
"What happened? If you have anything to say, just talk it over." Lin Qingping immediately protected Gu Youlian and the child.
When Gu Youlian saw her, she seemed to have regained her strength and cried, "I didn't do anything. I just touched the clothes, but he said I made them dirty... and asked me to pay for it..."
Lin Qingping looked at the dress that Gu Youlian pointed at. It was grey and not dirty or damaged. She couldn't help but get angry. "I haven't heard that you can't touch clothes in a mall. How can you pay for touching them?"
The man was gradually surrounded by other store employees, and more and more people came to watch the fun.
The man looked at her with disdain, "It's not that you can't touch me, it's that some people don't deserve to be touched. I'm not letting you touch them for your own good. If you get them dirty, you won't be able to pay for it, you know?"
"Really? This dress is very expensive?" Lin Qingping asked.
"Yes! It's very expensive! You can't afford it!" The man became more and more proud.
"Hurry up, hurry up, look at the mud on your feet, don't dirty our floor!" Another clerk joined in and tried to move the sacks of clothes with disgust.
"What kind of junk is this! Don't put it in front of our store!"
One by one, everyone is coming to throw their things.
"Wait!" Lin Qingping shouted, "Look at the slogan on the door of your store: Serving the People. What? We are from the countryside, so we are not the people?"
"you……"
Both shop assistants were speechless after hearing this.
The onlookers also said that the two of them were wrong and shouldn't look down on others like that.
Lin Qingping looked at the dress and said, "I want to buy this dress today!"
The man snorted, "This is the most upscale mall in the province. Do you know how much this dress costs?" The man held up three fingers, "Thirty yuan!"
Clothes that cost thirty yuan are indeed very expensive!
Gu Youlian even forgot the grievances she had suffered, fearing that her sister-in-law would really buy it on impulse.
As a result, what you fear will come true. Lin Qingping really took out three bills, handed them to Zhiyuan, and said to the clerk, "Did you see it? Don't look down on me. I want to try!"
Gu Youlian was really anxious, even Du Gen was anxious. There was no need to spend money out of anger like this!
But Lin Qingping was not someone who would listen to advice. She took the clothes and went in to try them on.
Not only did she try it on, she also looked at herself in front of the mirror and said it was a little big and wanted a size smaller. The male clerk patiently brought her a small one, but she said it was too small and wanted the big one again. Then she said the color didn't suit her and she tried every color in the store.
The male clerk's patience had reached its limit, but with Lin Qingping's previous question "We country people are not considered the masses" and so many people watching, he was afraid of arousing public anger and tried hard not to explode.
Until the end, Lin Qingping put on the first gray outfit again, looked at the mirror and exclaimed, "It really looks good!"
"Yes, our clothes, I'm not bragging, are the best in the country, and they're a Haishi brand." The male waiter was very proud.
Lin Qingping smiled and took off the clothes and returned them to him. "Yes, it's really nice and expensive, so, I'm sorry to bother you, but I won't buy it."
"You..." The male waiter was so angry that his face turned purple.
"I was just teasing you!" Lin Qingping looked arrogant as if asking "what can you do to me?" and led her sister and a few other people, carrying their own clothes, and strode out of the store with their heads held high.
The onlookers just thought it was a joke and made way for them. Some of the nosy uncles even pointed at the male clerk and said, "Don't look down on others. You've learned your lesson, haven't you? As the old saying goes, everyone who comes is a guest!"
