“Business is pretty good over there.”
As soon as Song Zhiya finished speaking, a few people came in together, and Song Yuanyuan hurried to entertain them.
Song Yuanyuan busied herself with several people, looked around, tried on two pieces of clothing, was not very satisfied, and then walked out.
This was the first wave of customers coming into the store, and she couldn’t even keep them. It looked like there would be no good business today!
Song Zhiya looked at Song Yuanyuan and saw that there were not many people buying clothes here, and she was thinking about something else.
In the original book, Song Yuanyuan intercepted the talented designer Shen Wenxi, and Lu Fanghua and others went around in circles and finally started a clothing business. However, because they didn't have any good designers, they could only purchase goods from ordinary factories and sell some nice clothes.
Lu Fanghua already had some experience, and although Song Yuanyuan had snatched the designer away, it was still not very successful because she had no sales skills.
The business flourished later because she would occasionally visit Lu Fanghua.
Lu Fanghua accidentally revealed how to run a store because she used to work in a clothing store.
Later, Song Yuanyuan used Lu Fanghua's previous business tactics, the way she ran the store and the pricing of her clothes, and her business gradually improved.
Then we grew bigger and stronger little by little.
The reason why Song Yuanyuan doesn't make much money now and doesn't attract many customers to her store is because she doesn't know how to warm up her business and doesn't know how to do sales techniques.
If this continues, even the best stores will be ruined.
But Song Zhiya didn't intend to remind her. She just praised her a few more times and then said, "I have to go back over there to help first."
"I'm leaving now."
Song Zhiya left after she finished speaking, and Song Yuanyuan looked at her back.
His fists were clenched tightly!
Although Song Zhiya praised her just now, looking at the way he spoke, he knew that she must have come to see if her business was doing well!
Maybe he came here to laugh at himself!
"Humph," thinking of the possibility of being laughed at, Song Yuanyuan clenched her fists and stared sharply at Song Zhiya's departing back, "I am definitely not worse than anyone else! Especially you!"
Song Zhiya went back to Lu Fanghua's shop to help. Around the afternoon, Shen Wenxi came over and brought some design drawings.
These designs are more distinctive than the previous batch.
After reading it, Lu Fanghua immediately praised, "Xiao Xi, you are so talented. Your design drawings are really good!"
“That’s great.”
"Once this batch of clothes is put into production, it should sell well."
Lu Fanghua praised, and Shen Wenxi's face turned red. After a long time, he looked at Song Zhiya and said, "It's because Sister Xiaoya gave me that magazine to read. I found some inspiration, so I came up with this design."
Song Zhiya smiled and said, "There are so many people who read magazines, but you are the only one who has the best understanding, and the clothes you design are better looking than those in magazines!"
“You will definitely be a good designer in the future!”
Shen Wenxi felt warm at heart after listening to these words, and swore in his heart again that no matter what happened in the future, he would never let Song Zhiya and Lu Fanghua down.
The day passed quickly.
Song Zhiya and Song Yuanyuan arrived home almost one after the other, and Liu Qingyu asked them to go into the restaurant to eat.
When she thought about what happened in the morning, Song Yuanyuan felt uncomfortable and thought that they were unwilling to stay with her for a while longer.
She had heard her aunt accidentally reveal that before she came back, Song Zhiya had a fever once, and the Song couple turned down a very important job and stayed at home with her.
They can all accompany Song Zhiya, so why can't they accompany me?
Is it that in her parents' hearts, she is not as important as Song Zhiya?
Thinking of this, Song Yuanyuan felt a little depressed.
She could see that even though her parents had always said that Song Zhiya was ignorant, they still loved her.
After all, she was the daughter he had raised for twenty years. If he really didn't love her, he should have sent her back to her biological parents the first time Song Zhiya did something wrong.
Isn't it because you didn't want Song Zhiya to suffer that you kept her here?
Although she is their biological daughter, her parents and brothers all want to compensate her, but they all feel sorry for her for not growing up at home for the past twenty years and her life is not as good as Song Zhiya's, so they want to compensate her, not because they love her from the bottom of their hearts.
But despite thinking this in her heart, Song Yuanyuan had no choice but to go to eat, and could only walk into the restaurant with Song Zhiya.
Tuanzi sat aside obediently. When he saw Song Zhiya, a smile appeared on his face, "Mom!"
After he finished shouting, Song Zhiya sat over and looked at the porridge in his bowl. She picked up two pieces of meat for him, tore them into pieces and put them in his bowl.
"Tuanzi, eat quickly. After you're done, mom will take you for a walk." Song Zhiya acted as if nothing had happened. Everyone thought she had changed too much at the beginning, but now she is as calm as ever.
Everyone stopped looking at her, and Song Yufeng took the initiative to ask Song Yuanyuan, "Yuanyuan, how is the business in the store today? It's been open for a day, so business should be okay, right?"
On the opening day, most people had good business.
But Song Yuanyuan’s situation is different!
She only placed two orders today, and her total sales were just over 30 yuan.
For one of the clothes, she gave a two yuan discount. The fabric of the clothes was very expensive, so she only made about three or four yuan in profit from the clothes.
After deducting the costs, she didn't know how much she earned that day.
Because the rent for the shop she rented was 40 yuan a month, she had to redecorate it, not to mention that she used the best fabrics, and it cost a lot to make the first batch of clothes.
Song Yuanyuan didn't dare to do the math on this matter, for she was afraid that she would not be able to accept it.
"Well enough."
Although she felt extremely upset, Song Yuanyuan managed to hold on and did not show any bad behavior in front of Song Yufeng and the others.
My business will get better and better. Opening it today is just a test of the waters.
"As long as business is good, that's fine. Your parents only spent a short while with you today, so I bought you a small gift to apologize to you!" Liu Qingyu handed over the small box, which contained a particularly delicate little bracelet.
Song Yuanyuan pursed her lips and said, "Thank you, Mom."
The family enjoyed the meal very happily, but only Song Zhiya could hear the helplessness in Song Yuanyuan's tone.
Although she had only been there once, she could guess, based on how tired and unhappy Song Yuanyuan looked when she came back, that a store that didn't use any sales methods wouldn't have very good business.
Such a store would have to have excellent products. But to be honest, although Song Yuanyuan is talented and has a good level of clothing design, she does not understand that if a store wants to make a lot of money, the design style needs to adapt to market demand, rather than simply looking good.
