◎Not bold enough!◎
Wei Xuan was not afraid. Her shop was much simpler and warmer than Fang Jing's. But there were many people here today, so she didn't have time to argue with Fang Jing.
Seeing more and more people coming, she said, "Then you go shopping first, I'll go greet some friends."
Fang Jing waved her hand nonchalantly: "Go ahead, I don't need you to worry about it. It just so happens that I haven't seen the styles you chose yet, so I'll take a closer look at them now."
"Okay, then take your time to read it. Remember to call me if you need anything."
As they were talking, Bian Qianqian had already walked over. Fang Jing was an acquaintance, but in comparison, Bian Qianqian, this old friend, seemed a lot more unfamiliar.
Wei Xuan smiled and greeted, "I was wondering if you would come today. Where's your Cheng Shao? Didn't he come with you?"
Over the years, Wei Xuan has seen Cheng Shao more often than Bian Qianqian, especially after Bian Qianqian gave birth to her second child, she has been out even less. Wei Xuan is also busy, and the number of times she has seen her can be counted on one hand.
"He's at home taking care of the kids, otherwise how could I come out?" Bian Qianqian looked around the store and said to Wei Xuan enviously, "You're amazing. You've opened one store after another over the years. Unlike me, I can only stay at home taking care of the kids."
...
...
Wei Xuan hesitated for a moment, but quickly reacted and continued, "You can't say that. Your Cheng Shao is capable and can make money so that you can stay at home and take care of the children. Isn't that good? Running a store is very hard work. It's just that I'm interested in these things. Otherwise, who would be willing to suffer when they can enjoy the good life?"
Perhaps comforted by Wei Xuan's words, Bian Qianqian shook off her previous disappointment and said with a smile, "By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet. The clothes you brought me last time were all very beautiful. You have such a good eye, and the store you open will definitely be a booming one."
"Then I'll borrow your good words."
There were a lot of people coming today, so Wei Xuan couldn't keep chatting with her here. She let her walk around the store by herself, and Wei Xuan went to greet other people.
She doesn't have many friends. Most of the people who came today are actually Jiang Che's friends. They brought their wives with them to show their support. The men were being greeted by Jiang Che outside the store, while Wei Xuan was responsible for entertaining their wives in the house and helping them with matching clothes.
Mrs. Wei San also took a special leave today to come and help. With her around, Wei Xuan felt the pressure was greatly reduced.
After finally seeing off all the guests at noon, Wei Xuan and the other two were so tired that they didn't even have the energy to say a word.
Zhang Daya was slightly better. Today she mainly followed the instructions of Wei Xuan and Wei Sansao and helped to get clothes and adjust the goods. This was similar to the physical work she was used to doing, so she still had the energy to squat aside and pack up the clothes that customers had tried but did not buy.
Wei Xuan and Wei Sansao were not so good. They all collapsed in their chairs. Wei Sansao drank a glass of water and said to Wei Xuan weakly, "Aunt, your store is so busy. I'm here today, but tomorrow it's just the two of you. How are you going to handle it?"
Wei Xuan said with a smile: "Third sister-in-law, you think too highly of me. Today is the first day of business so there are so many talented people. If there is such good business every day, I will hide in bed and laugh to death."
On the opening day, all the clothes in the store were discounted by 30%. In addition, with the support of friends, all the friends who came today bought at least one piece. If it were any other day, we wouldn't have such good business.
Mrs. Wei had not thought of this, but after hearing her sister-in-law's analysis, she patted her head and said in sudden realization: "Look, I'm so busy." If the business is really so good every day, her sister-in-law will definitely make a fortune.
None of the clothes in my sister-in-law's store are cheap. Even if they are discounted by 30%, there will definitely be some profit. Mrs. Wei silently calculated the cost in her mind and almost scared herself.
Although she didn't know how much money Wei Xuan could earn from one piece of clothing, just this morning, the sales of the clothes she sold alone amounted to more than a thousand yuan.
Even if only 200 out of the 1,000 was net profit, how much could she earn in a month? Third Sister Wei didn't dare to calculate further. She just felt that her sister-in-law was really amazing and had extremely good fortune. She was afraid that she was possessed by the God of Wealth!
Wei Xuan didn't know that Third Sister Wei had already demonized her in her heart. She just felt hungry and muttered why Jiang Che hadn't come back from the restaurant to buy vegetables.
After lunch, customers started coming in again shortly after.
If most of the customers in the morning are friends, then those who come into the store in the afternoon are all walks-of-life customers.
Before the opening, Wei Xuan did a good job in publicity. Not only did she write signs on the doors of her four grain stores, she also made flyers and handed one out to everyone who passed by.
Zhang Daya is in charge of this work. Every afternoon she squats in front of the clothing store and distributes flyers for two hours. It seems that the effect is very good.
Specifically, on the first day of opening, the restaurant was very popular and was not at all cold.
Wei Xuan was busy until six o'clock in the evening when she saw off the last customer and announced the closing of the shop. Wei Sansao had to go to work the next day, so after dinner, Wei Xuan let her go home first.
Section 76
Wei Xuan and Zhang Daya were left in the store to check the accounts and inventory.
To be honest, before counting the inventory, Wei Xuan really hadn't calculated how much goods she had sold that day. She was so busy that she had no time to think about it.
Now that she had counted them, she was almost scared.
She looked at Zhang Daya in disbelief: "Is our business so good today?" It was so good that almost one-third of the inventory was cleared.
Zhang Daya was also a little surprised, but she was better than Wei Xuan because she had been in charge of helping to pick up the goods today, so she had a fairly good idea of the inventory levels.
But she didn't expect the result to be much better than she imagined.
Just as the two were still immersed in their own emotions, Jiang Che pushed open the door and came in.
"Are you ready? Can we go home now?"
His appearance brought Wei Xuan back to reality. Wei Xuan quickly put away the account book and cash and replied, "Okay, we can go now."
Then she said to Zhang Daya, "You go back first. You've worked hard today. I'll give you a red envelope after the opening is over for three days."
Zhang Daya's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she said in surprise, "Thank you, Sister Wei Xuan. I'll be leaving first." She walked up to Jiang Che and said politely, "Goodbye, boss."
"Well, bye."
After the people left, Wei Xuan walked to the counter and took out a lock.
"Let's go." He walked outside with Jiang Che and locked the door before jumping on the back seat of Jiang Che's bicycle.
"Did your daughter go to her grandmother's house?"
"Yes, it was delivered."
Wei Xuan knew that today would be very busy, so she had already discussed with Yuanyuan and asked her to stay at her grandmother's house for a few days.
The little girl agreed, and in the evening Jiang Che picked her up from school and sent her directly to the Jiang family.
"I also told my parents about opening a store."
Wei Xuan was mentally prepared and just asked him, "Did your parents say anything?"
Jiang Che asked back: "What do you think they will say?"
"How should I know? Don't beat around the bush with me, just tell me."
Seeing that his wife was really anxious, Jiang Che stopped teasing her and said directly: "Nothing to say. I think my parents are too annoyed by the matter of the third sister and have no time to care about our affairs. Besides, we have opened four grain stores before. With this as a foundation, they will be more receptive to opening other stores."
Wei Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.
"That's good." She was not afraid that her parents-in-law would object. Wei Xuan was still very confident in this regard. Father and Mother Jiang were not the kind of parents who would interfere with their children's decisions.
Wei Xuan was afraid that they would be prejudiced against self-employed individuals. Differences in values could easily lead to conflicts. Wei Xuan simply didn't want to get upset with her parents-in-law because of these things. It was best if they could understand now.
When they were almost at the doorstep of their home, passing a public telephone booth, Wei Xuan asked Jiang Che to stop the car.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Che squeezed the brake and put his foot on the ground.
As soon as the bicycle came to a stop, Wei Xuan jumped off and walked towards the phone booth while answering Jiang Che's question: "I'm going to call Yangcheng. Some of the goods are almost sold out. I'm afraid that if they don't want the goods today, we won't have any to sell the day after tomorrow."
"Business is so good?" Jiang Che asked in astonishment.
"Yeah," Wei Xuan didn't have time to say more to him. It was getting late, and if she didn't call her, she was afraid that the other person would be off work soon.
When purchasing goods before, Wei Xuan asked for the contact information. Now it came in handy. She dialed the phone number written in the notebook and made two calls in a row. After confirming the quantity and style of the goods, the other party asked Wei Xuan to transfer the money tomorrow, and they would send the goods to her as soon as they received the money.
Wei Xuan was not sure how long it would take to receive the money she had transferred in this era. In order to avoid the embarrassing situation of the store running out of goods, she haggled with the other party for a long time before they agreed to mail the goods to her the next morning, but on the condition that she chose wire transfer when transferring the money.
Wei Xuan gritted her teeth and agreed. Since the other party had already taken a step back, she couldn't be stingy with the wire transfer money. She had to let the other party feel a little bit of her sincerity, so that they could have better cooperation in the future.
After hanging up the phone, Wei Xuan went home with Jiang Che.
The first thing to do when you get home is, of course, to count the money.
I was just checking the bill in the store and haven't counted the money yet.
Wei Xuan pulled Jiang Che to sit on a chair and took out a wad of money from her bag, which made Jiang Che stare at her in amazement.
"Wife, how much is this?"
Wei Xuan didn't answer him directly, but pretended to be suspenseful and said: "Just count and you'll know."
"Okay, count."
Still, the two of them count half each.
One thousand, two thousand, three thousand...six thousand two hundred and thirty!!!
Jiang Che was stunned. It took him a long time to react and asked, "This... I guess I counted correctly, wife, do you want to pinch me?"
"Ah----" Jiang Che gasped: "Wife, are you really pinching me?"
Wei Xuan took back her hand: "Didn't you ask me to pinch you?"
Jiang Che rubbed his arm that was pinched and asked with a grin, "How much of this is profit?"
Wei Xuan showed him the account book. Half of the turnover of more than 6,000 yuan was net income. Jiang Che was shocked again. If he remembered correctly, this was the result of a 30% discount. If it was not a 30% discount, wouldn't the profit be greater?
Jiang Che murmured, "Is this how much money one can make in the clothing business?" Compared to this huge profit, the little money earned from selling grain can really be said to be hard-earned money.
Wei Xuan was prepared for this. After all, she set the price, and no one knew the profit better than her.
So Mrs. Wei’s guess at noon was not bold enough!
