Starting out as a drug dealer in 1988

Not everyone has the channels or the ability to place orders from manufacturers, and most people still get their goods from wholesalers.

Especially for small vendors like Yang Yue, they have limited capital and are not qualified to cooperate with manufacturers.

After a week of fermentation, especially when the market suddenly became popular with leggings of various colors and styles, they flocked to the provincial capital, hoping to get a piece of the pie.

Obviously, everyone knows that the leggings of various colors and styles designed by Zhao Wenhao have won market recognition.

Today, if you can get the goods first, you can also make money first.

Who wouldn’t like to make money?

"Sister, how many reservations have you made today?"

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Wenhao, who had been maintaining order, wiped his sweat and was finally able to take a short break.

Zhao Wenjing calculated the numbers one by one.

"The total is 1.25. Wow, it's so much." Zhao Wenjing exclaimed, looking at the number in front of him with some disbelief.

Zhao Wenhao nodded slightly and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He has staked his entire fortune this time. If anything unexpected happens, all his efforts for the past six months will be in vain.

12, pairs of leggings.

The order has been sent out and the advance payment has been made.

Just wait until next week when the manufacturer will arrange a truck to deliver the goods directly to your door.

If the products really were unsold, Zhao Wenhao would faint in the toilet crying.

"Today is only the first day of reservations. I estimate that people from other cities will come later. If we are lucky, these 20,000 pieces will be sold out within three days."

Zhao Wenhao's eyes lit up, he clenched his right hand and swung his fist fiercely.

He was already considering whether to use the advance payment to place another order. After all, according to estimates, the previous batch of goods would be sold out in three days. By then, he would be faced with a situation where he had no goods to sell.

But after thinking about it, he still couldn't make this decision just to be on the safe side.

It's not that he has become conservative and doesn't dare to take risks, but rather that he cannot predict whether other merchants will arrive with counterfeit goods next week.

As for whether anyone would do such a thing as imitation, there is no doubt about it.

Zhao Wenhao estimated that someone might go to the manufacturer to negotiate on the first day his product came out.

As expected, under normal circumstances, it takes about 20 days from negotiation, material preparation, production to final production.

But if it is expedited and the buyer is willing to pay an extra fee, it is not impossible to get the goods within 15 days.

This is also what Zhao Wenhao is worried about, because the deadline will come next week. If someone customizes a large quantity to compete with him, he will be helpless.

"Wenhao, let's play it safe. There's no need to take risks. We've already made a lot of money with these two batches of goods. What's more, we sell them retail ourselves, and our sales are pretty good."

Perhaps seeing what his brother was thinking, Zhao Wenjing put down the account book and walked over.

"Okay, just listen to me."

Zhao Wenhao had already made up his mind and would wait three days to see how the situation would develop.

If there are still people willing to place orders with him, he will take them. He will only place as many orders as he can get, never more than that.

The next day, Zhao Wenhao, who had rested early at night, was full of energy again.

And just as he guessed, when he arrived at the store, there were already several people standing at the door.

"Boss Zhao, what you said yesterday still counts. I'm the first one in line today. So, you have to arrange for my goods!"

"Lao Fang, if you hadn't come a few days ago, look at how well Sun Jianping, Wang Haiquan, and the others have been selling these past two days."

"Hey, I'm not clear about the situation."

"Okay, whatever you want. I don't have much left on order. How much do you need?"

"500 pieces. You know I'm not as wealthy as them. But, as long as you have more goods in the future, I will definitely buy them from you."

Zhao Wenhao laughed, but didn't take it seriously.

He knew that Lao Fang did not have the financial resources to place an order directly with the manufacturer, so he came to him.

As for the idea of ​​buying from him in the future, he was just listening. If someone else's goods arrived and were cheaper than his, Lao Fang would definitely turn against him and turn his back on him.

"Hello, are you Boss Zhao?"

Just as Zhao Wenhao was communicating with several acquaintances, a middle-aged man stood in front of him.

He was wearing a loose black suit, his hair was slicked with hairspray, and his smile seemed fake.

Most businessmen are like this, so Zhao Wenhao didn't care.

"What do you need, old man?"

The man remained polite and took the initiative to introduce himself: "I'm Yang Qi, from Caizhou, and I also run a few clothing stores. I heard about your situation from a friend, so I came here specifically to do business with you."

"Sure, sure." Zhao Wenhao remained unfazed. There were a lot of people like him these past few days. Many from out of town came here hoping to get the goods first and start selling them. "How much do you want, Boss Yang?"

Yang Qi smiled pretentiously, then held up three fingers: "Three thousand. If you have the goods, four thousand will be fine."

Zhao Wenhao, who had not taken it seriously at first, suddenly became very interested.

So far, the largest order from him was only 1500 pieces. Unexpectedly, this morning, like a magpie calling at the door, someone suddenly placed a large order.

"Boss Yang, please come in. Sister, please pour me a cup of tea!" Zhao Wenhao hurried forward to greet him.

As for big customers, of course they should be treated differently.

As for the others shouting about first come, first served, Zhao Wenhao would not pay any attention to them at this time.

Yang Qi didn't hesitate and followed him into the store.

"Boss Yang, are you sure you need this much?"

Zhao Wenhao was a little curious, but also a little skeptical.

If you have the ability, you can place an order of a few hundred from him first, and then go to the manufacturer to negotiate. In that way, you can save a lot of costs.

Perhaps guessing Zhao Wenhao's thoughts, Yang Qi didn't take it seriously. Instead, he explained, "I have five shops in the five counties under Caizhou. I also have a shop in Caizhou City. So the quantity I need is a little larger."

"Oh, I see." Zhao Wenhao suddenly understood. "What does Boss Yang want?"

"I just have one request: price. I'd like to get it down to 8 yuan per piece. If you agree, I can place an order for pieces right away."

Yang Qi stared calmly into Zhao Wenhao's eyes, waiting for his reply.

Zhao Wenhao frowned slightly. He knew very well that this kind of business was a one-time deal.

Boss Yang must have his own cooperating factories, it’s just a matter of time difference.

Because as early as two days ago, Caizhou merchants had already purchased goods from him. If Yang Qi did not follow up in time, the previous market share would belong to others.

By the time he places an order with the factory and starts selling, who knows how many pairs have already been sold.
