The tractor crossed the country road, then got on the national highway, and then headed towards the county in a bumpy way.
There were several bulging sacks piled on the bed of the carriage. Duo Mei and Gao Shufang had no place to move, so they could only sit on the sacks. These soft sacks protected them from the bumps.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the tractor stopped in front of a brand new house.
Different from ordinary houses, this house does not have traditional wooden doors on the first floor, but rolling shutter doors.
There are already rolling shutter doors now, but there are less aluminum and most are made of iron, and they cannot be controlled electronically. You have to open the lock and lift the rolling shutter door manually. During the process of lifting, it will make a squeaking sound. The sound comes.
There are advantages to installing rolling shutter doors. They do not take up space and do not block light. Once the door is opened, the spacious store inside is revealed.
In the days to come, rolling shutter doors will further cover all facades, and their technological content will become higher and higher, with convenient and anti-theft functions.
The first floor has been completely renovated, and everything looks bright. Gao Shufang's face was full of surprise. After looking around, her eyes fell on the largest crystal chandelier.
The lights haven't been turned on yet, but the crystal decorations alone are enough to attract attention.
Gao Mingcheng noticed that the eyes of the two women were attracted by the crystal chandelier, and immediately turned on the switch. The moment the power was turned on, the crystal chandelier lit up, emitting a charming brilliance.
It's still daytime, if it's nighttime, this light will definitely look even more beautiful!
"Wow! So beautiful!" The two women exclaimed, their eyes mesmerized. As expected, not many women can resist the charm of the crystal chandelier.
The reason why Gao Mingcheng spent a lot of money to buy crystal chandeliers was just for gimmicks!
It can be said that he is the first clothing store in the county to install crystal chandeliers! This alone is enough to talk about!
The decoration of the entire store, from the perspective of later generations, is too rustic and crude, but now, it is the trend, it is fashion!
"Okay, don't be stunned. You two go to the backyard to fetch water. These shelves and containers need to be wiped clean. There must be no dust, and the floors must be mopped!" Gao Mingcheng ordered, and he went to pick up the goods on the tractor. , all the luggage was moved down.
In addition to the spacious store on the first floor, there are also two changing rooms and a small warehouse. The small warehouse is now filled with goods, which Gao Mingcheng has purchased one after another from Yangcheng.
There is no place to put the local goods in his hand, so he can only put them upstairs first, and then take them down when the downstairs is cleaned and the goods can be spread.
So the two women were busy doing hygiene, and Gao Mingcheng was also busy moving things. After putting everything in their place, Gao Mingcheng said, "I'll buy some pots, pans, pans and briquettes!"
The kitchen in the backyard has been prepared, but it is empty and there is no way to turn on the fire for cooking.
He went out on his tractor so he could buy everything in one trip.
After buying the kitchen utensils, he had to go out again, this time to buy bedding. No one had lived in this house, so many daily necessities were lacking.
But fortunately, the rooms on the second floor have beds and cabinets, so people can live in them at any time. As for the third floor, Gao Mingcheng is a little tight on money, and there is no need for the third floor at the moment, so he only made doors and windows, including ceramic tiles and whitewash. The walls haven't been built yet.
He planned to renovate the third floor after the clothing store made money.
Gao Mingcheng spent the whole afternoon buying various daily necessities, and the money in his pocket was spent like water.
Seeing Gao Mingcheng come back with two beddings, Gao Shufang realized belatedly that she only brought some changes of clothes, not her own bedding!
She said with some self-blame: "Oh, I should have brought the bedding and saved the money to buy more!"
Gao Mingcheng smiled and said: "It's okay, you always have to use it, it will bring trouble!"
When many beauties saw that Gao Mingcheng had bought so many things, they couldn't help but worry that he had no money in his pocket, so they took out all the money they brought with them and gave it all to Gao Mingcheng.
Before Gao Mingcheng became a driver, he left a sum of money to Duomei, but two months later, the money was not reduced at all.
Looking at the money that was stuffed into his hand, Gao Mingcheng felt warm in his heart. He did not take it, but handed it to Duo Mei again and said, "Keep this money and use it as change after the store opens."
When doing business, you need to collect money and change money. It is routine for merchants to prepare some change in advance.
"Then do you still have money?" Duo Mei looked at Gao Mingcheng worriedly, fearing that Gao Mingcheng would not succeed.
"Well, there are still some." Gao Mingcheng said truthfully, and added another sentence in his mind - but not much.
Although he made some money and received a gray income, his expenses were also high. He had not yet paid for the goods he took from Gao Shouwang. He had agreed to pay for the goods after the clothing store opened.
"Okay, I won't be polite to you if I don't have money. You keep this money for business. Now let's sell the goods first - Shufang, go get that bag of hangers!"
Gao Mingcheng moved the goods out of the warehouse. The goods were all packed in woven bags. Once he opened them, the cotton clothes inside popped out of the bags immediately after they were freed from restraints.
The three of them took the cotton clothes out of the bag, shook them out first, and then hung them on hangers. Seeing the creases on the clothes, Gao Mingcheng thought that he had to buy an electric iron.
If you want to sell it at a high price, the product must not be defective, especially cashmere coats, which must be crisp. If it is full of creases, the quality of the high-end fabric will be gone, and naturally it will not sell at a high price.
There were too many goods, and the three of them were busy working. When they took a breather, they realized that it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. Their stomachs rumbled at the right time, reminding the owner that it was past the time to eat.
"Mingcheng, have you bought noodles? Let's cook noodles tonight!" Duo Mei said. Cooking rice takes too long, so noodles are much more convenient.
Gao Mingcheng said: "I bought it, and I also bought the eggs."
So Duo Mei went to the kitchen in the backyard to cook, while Gao Mingcheng and Gao Shufang continued working.
Their clothing store does not have small categories. It sells both men's and women's clothing, and even children's clothing. It is considered a medium-sized clothing supermarket.
Half an hour later, many beautiful voices came from the backyard: "Mingcheng, Shufang, you can eat noodles!"
Gao Mingcheng hung up the last piece of clothing and said to Gao Shufang, "Let's go, that's all for today!"
The two went to the backyard. In addition to the kitchen, there was also a wooden table for people to eat.
After the meal, Gao Mingcheng asked them all to go upstairs to rest and continue to tidy up the shop during the day tomorrow.
Today is indeed tiring. Although I bought those beddings, I still need to put the quilt cover manually. At this time, the quilt cover is mainly hand-stitched, and there are no zippered quilt covers.
Fluorescent lamps illuminated the entire room. Gao Mingcheng sat on a chair and rested, watching many beauties working.
The quilt cover is divided into two parts. One part is a brightly colored quilt. Gao Mingcheng bought a classic peony pattern on a red background, while the lower part has a pink striped pattern.
Du Mei first laid out the quilt bottom underneath, then asked Gao Mingcheng to help put the cotton quilt, then straightened the red peony quilt, and finally turned the pink striped quilt bottom up, folded the four corners, and then The quilt bottom and quilt top are sewn together.
In this way, the quilt cover is ready.
When it becomes dirty and needs to be washed again, remove the sewn threads, clean the two pieces of fabric, and then continue sewing them on.
In order to avoid frequent removal and washing of quilt covers, some people will sew another piece of cloth on the part near the head, because only that part of the entire quilt is often rubbed against the body and is most likely to get dirty.
If it gets dirty, remove the fabric at the back and wash it, so you only need to sew and wash it once a winter.
This can be regarded as a little life experience for housewives. It may not look so beautiful, but it is indeed practical.
Gao Mingcheng forgot to buy an extra piece of cloth, so many beauties told him to remember to buy it tomorrow.
What can Gao Mingcheng say? Of course I agree!
