After being abandoned by the educated youth, I became rich in the 80s

July 29th, Saturday.

The department store is bustling with people.

After all, it was Saturday, and the weather was hot and there wasn't much fun to do around. The department store, which was filled with all kinds of goods and had fans blowing all day, was of course the best choice.

Customers entering the mall felt that something was different today. Upon closer inspection, they found that a stall had appeared near the entrance, piled with goods.

As soon as you walk in, you can hear enthusiastic shouts.

"Come and buy them, come and see, there's a big sale on rubber hair bands that aren't even available in Guangzhou!"

When they heard the word "Yangcheng", their hearts were moved.

After all, the goods in Yangcheng are the most fashionable now, whether it is clothes or watches and radios, they are all very popular. As soon as they heard the word Yangcheng, they immediately surrounded him and asked hurriedly.

"Are these new clothes from Yangcheng?"

"Is it from Yangcheng?"

Yunxi: “…”

Yunxi opened his mouth and his ears turned red. The person who was hawking just now was him. He didn't know that when he shouted "goods not available in Yangcheng", it became something new in Yangcheng when it reached these people's ears.

This is very confusing.

"Is it clothes?"

The sharp-eyed person noticed the pile of colorful fabrics on the stall and asked quickly, his hands unable to resist wanting to take a look.

Lan Xi quickly said, "It's not clothes, it's a hair band."

"Scrunchies? Women's stuff?"

Hearing this, the man stopped what he was doing and looked at the piles of colorful fabrics on the stall. He felt a little distressed. How could such good fabrics be cut up and made into these useless things?

"Brother, take a look. This is a hair band that is not even available in Guangzhou. You will be the first one to use it. It is the most fashionable. It looks great when tied on your hair. It is suitable for adults, the elderly and children. It is one yuan each now. Buy five and get one free. Why don't you buy one as a gift for your family?"

Lan Xi said this with eager eyes, but the man just rolled his eyes when he heard what he said.

"What kind of rubbish is this? How dare you charge one dollar for it? Are you trying to rob me? I want to see who will sell it to me."

As he spoke, he put his hands behind his back and muttered something cruel, "How dare a woman charge one dollar for a hair tie? Can't she just tie it with a torn red rope? Why would she need such fine fabric?"

At this time, a woman walked past him and shouted in surprise: "Oh my God, such a beautiful thing, what is this?!"

The young-looking liar immediately repeated what he had just said. The man thought that the woman would curse like him, but she said with surprise.

"How can such a beautiful thing be so cheap? You know, a rubber band with nothing on it in the department store costs this much, and a hair band made of such beautiful fabric costs this much! And it's not even sold in Guangzhou. I'm the first person to use it, I want to buy it, I want to buy it!"

As she spoke, the woman began to pick and choose on the stall. When she picked a hair band she liked, she put it on her hair to see the effect. The young man handed her a mirror, and the woman began to pose in front of the mirror, praising the man one thing after another.

This attracted the women nearby, who couldn't help but take a closer look. The more they looked, the more excited they became. Listening to what the women said, they couldn't help but nod their heads. Yes, this price is still very cheap compared to rubber bands and cloth.

Especially these fabrics, they can't buy them even with money.

And it’s a new thing that isn’t even available in Guangzhou.

I immediately joined the shopping team and started choosing hair bands made of my favorite color.

The man's eyes bulged out when seeing this scene. Could this really be a treasure?

Lan Xin was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She greeted every customer skillfully with Chen Baoni and Xu Rufang.

The first woman to perform an exaggerated act was of course none other than Li Xia, Lan Xin's sitter. Unexpectedly, she, who looked so carefree, turned out to be a dramatic actress.

With these people's enthusiastic buying, it directly attracted people who came into the mall later. After all, such a large stall was placed at the entrance of the department store and could be seen by people coming in and out. And seeing so many people rushing to buy, the first impression in their minds was that it was a good thing.

I was originally wavering, but as more and more people bought from me, I couldn't help but buy as well.

Lan Xin and the others were both happy and sad. There were so many people buying their products that their mouths were dry and their throats were smoking from talking so much.

They just made do with whatever they had at noon, and by the time the mall closed in the afternoon, only half of the two packages of goods they had brought to the mall today were left.

"It's finally closed." Lan Xi said in a hoarse voice, and he looked decadent, not at all like the youthful and energetic campus student before.

"Everyone is tired today, let's go out to eat!" Lan Xin said with a wave of her hand.

Today's business is unexpectedly good. Lan Xin feels that she can sell all the products in these three days and there is no need to continue looking for someone to distribute them.

But thinking about the several large bags of hair ties at home, I forced myself to calm down.

In other words, after all, these things are not necessities, but just a spice of life. People in this era are simple and not many are willing to spend money on dressing up. Moreover, these are just single large intestine hair rings. I guess for people with some spare money near the provincial capital, eating these few packs of hair rings is already the limit.

The rest will have to be sold to other places. Time is tight and Lan Xin doesn't want to run away. If someone is willing to sell them wholesale, it would be a good choice.

Although the others felt sorry for spending money on restaurants, their eyes couldn't help but light up and their dry mouths began to spit out saliva like crazy.

We found a small restaurant and had a delicious meal, then went back to the guesthouse and continued the next day.

The situation on the second and third days was indeed not as good as the first day.

It may also be related to the fact that workers of this era only had one day off a day.

Judging from the current living standards of the people, working-class families are still better off. They are willing to go shopping in the mall during their weekends and are willing to buy things with some spare money. However, there is another group of people who go into business, and not many of them go shopping.

But Lan Xin was still very surprised, because after three days, they only sold the last half pack of hair ties, and someone came to buy the remaining hair ties.

It wasn’t anyone else, it was Zhao Qingfeng, whom Lan Xin had known before.

Zhao Qingfeng opened a clothing store in a department store for his second wife, but after she sold the child born to Zhao Qingfeng's ex-wife, Zhao Qingfeng fell out with her. The store in the department store has been closed for a long time, and Lan Xin saw that the storefront has been closed all the time.

Maybe the problem has been resolved now, or maybe Zhao Qingfeng was reluctant to keep his unprofitable clothing store closed, so he came to the department store to reopen it and happened to meet Lan Xin.
