Starting out as a drug dealer in 1988

The sales were so hot that except for the 500 pieces that Zhao Wenhao kept for his own store, the rest were sold out in less than a week.

Of these, less than 500 were sold to direct customers, while more were wholesaled to peers.

Even vendors from other counties and cities who came to the provincial capital's clothing market to purchase goods couldn't help but rush to buy some when they saw such a scene.

Among them is Yang Yue.

"Haozi, you're amazing!" Yang Yue was incredulous and gave a thumbs-up. "When you told me that leggings were selling well, I didn't take it seriously. I didn't expect to see such a scene today."

It's always a bit flattering to receive compliments from beautiful women.

Zhao Wenhao is no exception.

"You flatter me well, so I decided to reward you with 8 of them. They're over there, go and move them yourself. But the price is yuan per piece." Zhao Wenhao didn't go up to help, but collapsed on the chair, holding the teapot leisurely.

Yang Yue felt a little embarrassed. She knew that Zhao Wenhao was taking care of her, so he did it on purpose.

Others were still paying 9 yuan per piece for so many items, and even then, some people still hadn't gotten their hands on any. When it came to her, they lowered the price by 1 yuan, and even proactively reserved 100 pieces for her.

"How about we also go with the price of 9 yuan per piece?" Yang Yue hesitated. "I feel bad for always taking advantage of you."

Not to mention the 3000 yuan loan she had previously borrowed, even though she hadn't repaid a cent of it, during the Lunar New Year holiday, he gave her another yuan to help her repay her debts. The remaining money was used to allow her to work as a mobile clothing vendor in Ping'an County.

Sometimes Yang Yue couldn't help wanting to pull Zhao Wenhao over and ask him if he liked her. Otherwise, how could a boy devote so much to a girl, was it really just because of the friendship between classmates and friends?

But she didn't dare. She was worried that if it was true, once she said it, she might not even be able to get along with her friends.

That would just make things awkward for everyone.

Before Zhao Wenhao, who was sitting over there, could say anything, Zhao Wenjing, who was sorting things, chimed in, "It's only 8 yuan per piece, Yueyue. We're all family, how can we compare ourselves to outsiders?"

Although Zhao Wenjing and Yang Yue have only met three times, they have now become good sisters.

Especially after Zhao Wenjing heard about Yang Yue's family situation, he felt even more sympathetic.

Besides, she also felt that her brother and Yang Yue were a perfect match, and they knew each other well. If possible, she really wanted to bring them together.

"Look, even my sister said so, what else do you have to say?" Zhao Wenhao was still sitting there lazily, agreeing with her from time to time.

These past few days have been quite tiring, especially for my throat. I've been shouting at the top of my lungs every day, and it's finally getting a bit too much.

Yang Yue looked at the brother and sister and finally agreed.

"Yueyue, it's quite late tonight. Why don't you just stay? Sleep with me tonight and go back tomorrow morning."

Zhao Wenjing raised her hand to check the time. It was already past two in the afternoon.

There is no direct bus from the provincial capital to Ping'an County.

If I rush to the station now to take a bus to Dingzhou City, then rush back to Ping'an County from Dingzhou, and then rush back home from the county seat, it will be at least seven or eight o'clock in the evening.

Zhao Wenjing was obviously worried about the girl being single.

"This..." Yang Yue was a little embarrassed.

I originally came to the provincial capital to purchase goods today, but I saw that the leggings customized by Zhao Wenhao were selling quite well.

So she thought about bringing in a batch as well.

As it turned out, the place was incredibly busy, and she felt embarrassed to just take the goods and leave, so she just helped out for a while until it was too late to leave.

As a girl, it was not safe for her to walk at night. After all, it took her nearly an hour to ride her bike from the county town to her home.

But letting her live in a male classmate's home would still feel a little awkward psychologically, even if she was just sleeping in the same bed with Zhao Wenjing.

"You're so fussy, Yang Yue. This isn't your character."

Zhao Wenhao on the side finally spoke up. He was also worried that something might happen if he went back at this time.

As for letting Yang Yue stay in a hotel, she probably couldn't bear to spend that money.

Looking at Zhao Wenhao sitting lazily in the chair, Yang Yue finally agreed.

So, that night, Zhao Wenhao had a treat.

Zhao Wenjing took Yang Yue to the market and did some shopping, including braised pork elbow, sweet and sour pork ribs, old hen soup, and two stir-fried vegetarian dishes.

The three of them were so full that they couldn't eat anymore.

At first Yang Yue was a little reserved, but later she gradually relaxed.

The next morning, Yang Yue took the earliest bus out of Xuanzhou, while Zhao Wenhao continued back to the shop.

"Boss Zhao, do you have any more goods?"

"Boss Zhao, arrange 200 for me. I've brought the money."

"Hello, Mr. Zhao. I heard from a friend that you have the latest models of leggings wholesale. I'd like to buy some from you. I wonder if you can give me a discount if we team up to buy more?"

……

Early in the morning, Zhao Wenhao had just opened the door to his shop when a group of people suddenly appeared out of nowhere, one after another, asking for goods.

Especially six of them, judging from their words, they came here specially from the neighboring cities and counties.

"Everyone, please be patient. The stock is currently out, but I ordered another batch the day before yesterday, and it will definitely arrive next Tuesday. If you are interested, please register first. First come, first served, and no one else will be waiting."

Zhao Wenhao stood on the bench and shouted loudly.

Now he needs to make up for this time difference. In ten days at the latest, imitation products will inevitably appear on the market.

By that time, it would be absolutely impossible for his products to be so popular.

Therefore, he had to make another big move before this deadline.

This time, he invested all the money he had.

You know, he already had a capital of more than 8 yuan, plus the profit from the sales of 12 pairs of leggings, the total was as much as yuan.

12 is enough for him to order pieces.

If he succeeds, with the sales of 30,000 pairs of leggings, his wealth will definitely increase significantly.

"Boss Zhao, give me one thousand. This is a two thousand yuan deposit."

"You're the only one with money, right? Who came here today without cash? Go away, don't you care about first come first served?"

"Boss Zhao, there are six of us together, and we want to order 3,000."

……

Just after Zhao Wenhao announced the policy, the crowd below immediately began to crowd forward.

Most of the people were holding a stack of banknotes in their hands, shouting and pushing forward.

"Don't be impatient, come one by one."

Zhao Wenhao maintained order, while Zhao Wenjing was responsible for registration.
