Lu Cuilan sighed softly, "I hope so. Our factory doesn't have the funds to mess around."
Jiang Shiyue sold a thousand sets of work clothes last time and earned 16,000 yuan for the factory. He paid 10,000 yuan to the workers and invested the rest in modifying the work clothes and organizing this event.
I can't afford to lose everything.
The workers from the garment factory gathered around, all looking nervous.
Others tapped their feet rhythmically, chanting, "Buy! Buy! Buy!"
"Give me a hundred sets!"
A loud male voice came from the right side of the catwalk.
Jiang Shiyue raised her eyebrows in surprise and looked towards the source of the sound.
As far as the eye could see, a middle-aged man stood by the stage and waved at Jiang Shiyue, "Little girl, do I qualify to buy this?"
A worker from a nearby garment factory whispered to Jiang Shiyue, "This is Director Yu from the department store. He was the one who made the final decision on this event. He sent the fruits and snacks."
Jiang Shiyue nodded. She knew that Director Yu just had never met him.
At first, the department store was not considered when sending the tickets. Later, Jiang Shiyue felt that it was impolite to hold a fashion show at someone else's doorstep without even giving out tickets, so she asked someone to send a few tickets to the department store.
Pure gratitude.
I didn’t expect there would be such a pleasant surprise now.
Jiang Shiyue extended her hand to invite Director Yu to come on stage.
Director Yu is a typical northern man with a loud voice and a cheerful personality. He strode to the table to register.
"Hello, what kind of work clothes would you like?"
"Let's start with five!" He pointed at a few styles. "I want twenty sets of each of these work clothes. How much is that?"
Jiang Shiyue reminded: "Director Yu, our work clothes are not just a set of tops and pants. They include clothes, shoes and accessories for all four seasons. Are you sure you want so much?"
"Why not?" Director Yu asked Jiang Shiyue, "I'm the first one to offer a 50% discount. This price is lower than the purchase price. I can't lose money if I sell it on the counter."
Many responsible people in the audience: "..."
Who did he sell it to?
us!
From Nanjing to Beijing, it is better to sell than to buy.
The ancients did not deceive me.
Jiang Shiyue gave Director Yu a thumbs-up. "As expected of the head of the department store, you're quite calculating. I promise you won't regret this decision today."
In fact, Director Yu had somewhat exploited a loophole in the rules, but the factory wasn't really at a loss. More importantly, working with Director Yu was absolutely worth it, and even a small loss was acceptable.
The price we had previously agreed upon at the factory was around 10 yuan for a summer suit, 15 yuan for a spring or autumn suit without a thick coat, and 25 yuan with a coat. Winter suits ranged from 20 to 40 yuan, depending on whether or not a padded coat was included.
Later, shoes and accessories were added, and the total price was about fifty-five to ninety yuan.
Because it is the same style for spring and autumn, one set is enough.
Jiang Shiyue looked at the price list and simply raised the price of each item of clothing by ten yuan. Shoes and accessories remained the same, as the garment factory didn't make any profit from them. However, winter shoes were still more expensive than summer ones.
Director Chen and his team set the price based on the market price, but Jiang Shiyue wants to lead the market.
When something new becomes popular, its price is always much higher than the market price.
After the change, the total price became eighty-five to one hundred and twenty yuan.
The cost of production and modification in the factory is about 40 to 70 yuan, and a 50% discount is just enough to break even.
Director Yu can only make a profit by selling it.
Director Yu said that half of them wanted cotton-padded jackets and thick coats, and the other half didn't.
The counting bead on the calculator clicked a few times and counted, "A total of five thousand one hundred and twenty-five yuan."
A quick-thinking bank manager took out a pen from his jacket pocket and did a rough calculation on the cigarette box wrapper.
These 100 complete sets of work clothes include 100 summer clothes, 100 spring and autumn clothes, 100 winter clothes, 50 spring and autumn coats, 50 winter cotton-padded coats, and 100 pairs of shoes and scarves, totaling only 5,000 yuan, which means each set of clothes and shoes costs only 10 yuan, which is a very good price.
He quickly threw down his pen and went on stage to grab the second place.
Are you kidding? If you don’t grab it now, are you going to wait and buy it at a high price in the department store?
When the other people who were in charge saw the bank people coming on stage, they hurriedly followed suit.
Although the people in the 1978 bank did not have any actual financial control, they were at least the state's cashiers, and they could calculate very well, so they would definitely not suffer any loss.
However, after the second, third, fourth and fifth persons in charge lined up, the sixth position was temporarily vacant.
Anyway, it’s the original price, so the rest of the people don’t have to worry.
Jiang Shiyue was not in a hurry and waited for the accounts to be settled.
The bank has heating in winter, so tellers basically don't leave the business hall and don't need coats.
The total price of one hundred sets of clothes is 8,500 yuan, which is 5,100 yuan after a 40% discount.
The person in line behind the bank manager asked him, "You have only about 20 people in your business hall. Why did you order 100 suits?"
"It's true that we only have 20 people in our business hall, but we're the headquarters. Shouldn't all the business halls in other counties and towns wear the same uniform? Why don't we just change uniforms together?"
"That's true. In that case, we have to buy more."
The third, fourth, and fifth people asked for 80, 50, and 50 sets respectively.
The third place had eighty sets, fifty of which did not require coats, and thirty did, for a total of five thousand four hundred and ninety-five dollars.
He beat his chest and stamped his feet, his face full of regret. "I spent more money than the department store, but I got twenty fewer sets of clothes!"
"Yeah, it's because we're not as good at business as department stores, and we're not as fast at calculating as people in banks."
The fourth-place winner's fifty sets all cost six thousand yuan including the coat, and with a 20% discount, it's four thousand eight hundred yuan.
