Chapter 66 Strange Guest
The business of selling clothes and small shops is progressing steadily.
Looking at the daily cash flow, I finally feel a little more secure in my heart. I no longer feel confused and lost about the future as I did when I first came here.
Although I am busy, my life has become fulfilling with direction, and the hard work leaves me no time to panic.
Every night I fall asleep on the bed, and as soon as I touch the pillow, I fall asleep. The next time I open my eyes, it is dawn.
Business is good and goods are selling very quickly. The last batch of cheap materials is almost gone.
However, I tried to find out from many sources, but I couldn't find the real purchasing channel.
I could see that it would not be long before there would be no more goods to sell. I was very upset that the business I had just started was gone.
If this continues, and there is no other change, I can only stop the business I have now. There is another way, which is to go to the fabric store to buy expensive fabrics to make them. In that case, unless I rent a storefront to make them, I will definitely not be able to sell them at a high price if I sell them outside, and I will not make much money, so there is not much point in doing it.
But if I rent a storefront, the rent is expensive, and I don’t have enough staff. It doesn’t seem right to expand now.
The shop was open as usual that day, and there were not many cheap clothes left on the ready-made clothing stalls. The clothes hanging out were made from the expensive fabrics bought from the fabric store. The number of customers was gradually decreasing.
If there is something on your mind, it will inevitably show on your face.
I sat in the lobby of the store, looking out the door with a worried look on my face, thinking about how to change this situation.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a grey long gown with a front opening came in from the gate, followed by a servant. He walked into the cubicle and sat down: "Shopkeeper, give me two bowls of noodles."
When a customer comes to visit, I quickly greet him: "Okay, sir, please sit down for a moment."
Middle-aged man: "Shopkeeper, come here, I want to ask you something, are these clothes made by you or by others?"
Me: “Boss, why are you asking this…?”
The middle-aged man said, "Shopkeeper, please don't misunderstand me. My last name is Zhao and I'm a cloth merchant. I just want to ask, do you buy the cloth yourself or sell ready-made clothes? I see that the workmanship of this batch of cloth is very good, but it's all dirty. But you've sold it all?"
Me: "Boss, please excuse me. These fabrics are piled up in other people's warehouses and can't be sold. I bought them and made them into clothes to sell. I'm sorry to embarrass you with my small business."
"Shopkeeper, do you want to do business with me? I have a backlog of cloth on hand, but I haven't rented a warehouse yet. After being soaked by a heavy rain, the material is still in good condition. Madam, if you are interested, I can sell this cloth to you at a low price."
"I don't know what the price is, can I go and have a look?"
"Of course, no problem. When doing business, you have to check the goods. It's about 50 miles away, and you have to check the goods. It may take a whole day. Madam, do you have time?"
"Yes, yes, but the journey is a bit far, I will make some preparations."
When you are at the end of your rope, you will find another village.
"The guests are here, please eat slowly first, and then we can talk in detail."
While the middle-aged man was eating, I came to Brother He's place and decided to invite Brother He and Sister He to go with me. They have been at home recently. I received a lot of help from him at the beginning, so it would be nice if we could work together.
When I arrived at He's house and was about to knock on the door, I happened to run into Brother He, who was about to leave with a brother behind him. I briefly explained the situation and expressed my desire to invite Brother He to go and see the goods together.
Brother He: "Sister, we are just about to go to you. Your clothing business is doing well. I want to ask if you have any extra. I am idle at home now, and you don’t have anything to do. I want to go to your place to get some goods and try my luck."
An idea occurred to me that maybe I could find more people to do it and let them go out to sell it. In this way, the sales would be better. Maybe if done well, this would become a mature path.
Me: "Brother He, I have almost sold all of this batch. If you sell it, the profit will not be high. But if you go to see this batch of goods today and we can make a deal then, we can talk about it later."
Brother He: "What are you waiting for? Let's go." He shouted from behind: "I'm going out for a while and will be back later."
Mrs. He walked out from the main hall and nodded with a smile.
When we arrived at the restaurant, Boss Zhao had already finished his meal and was sitting in the lobby, chatting with Chu Liang. Chu Liang was answering like a little adult, in a serious manner. When he saw us coming back, he stood up and walked out.
Boss Zhao: "Madam, are you ready? Are you ready to go together?"
Me: “Okay, let’s go now.”
Me: "Xinghua, Cao'er, you two should stay at home and take care. I'm going to be out for a while. Chuliang, tell your mother to close the clothes stand at the door if she's too busy."
"Auntie Yun knows."
We came to the carriage shop and rented a carriage. Brother He and his friends got on Boss Zhao's carriage. I told the driver to follow behind.
An hour later, I finally arrived at the warehouse that Boss Zhao mentioned. The fabrics were all cotton, with no silk, which was just right for my current stage of development.
It's just that the quantity is a bit large. If we buy all of them, we definitely can't handle it with just the few people in our store. We will definitely have to hire new people.
I carefully looked through the goods and found that they were indeed severely soaked in water. However, they were just soaked in water and did not stay there for long. If I take good care of them and sell them at a low price, it is completely fine.
There are still some in the goods, but the surface is a little wet, so you can take this part out separately and sell it separately.
The price of this batch of goods can be raised a little. In this way, as long as the price can be kept down, the profit will be greater than expected.
I asked calmly, "Boss Zhao, this batch of your goods has been severely soaked in water. I've looked through so many of them and they are all the same. And you know they will easily get moldy if they are not dealt with quickly. What price do you want? If it's too high, I can't afford it. Name your price."
Boss Zhao: "Look at this batch of my goods. Although they have been soaked in water, it is just the beginning. The damage is not very serious."
……
I put in a hundred times more effort and bargained with Boss Zhao, engaging in a heated debate.
With Brother Zhao and his friends staring in amazement and Boss Zhao complaining about the huge losses, the deal was finally settled at 180 taels.
I will pay a deposit of 50 taels first, and Boss Zhao will deliver the goods to me, and I will pay upon delivery.
After signing the agreement, Boss Zhao invited us to dinner: "Madam Boss, since they call you sister, I'll be bold and call you sister too. If you need fabric in the future, you can come to me directly. But next time, don't let me lose money like this. Hahaha."
Me: "Thank you so much, Brother Zhao. It is my blessing to have some of your sisters. If I need to buy fabric in the future, I will rely on you, Brother Zhao."
The meal was a great pleasure for both hosts and guests. After we had enough food and wine and loaded the car, we started to head back with the goods.
It was already dark when I got home. I unloaded all the fabrics into the small courtyard.
Boss Zhao left his address for next contact and went back at night.
At this moment, my little house, Xiuwen's room, my room, Xiaobao's room, and the whole yard are filled with cloth.
I breathed a sigh of relief. Now I would be busy for some time.
Brother He looked at the cloth all over the yard. He finally came back to his senses from the dizziness he had felt along the way. He smiled and said hello to me, and then went back with his brothers.
