Jiang Sheng refused to give up.
The last time she wholesaled 20 pieces, she saw that there were still two large packages in the warehouse. Let's say at least 30 or 50 pieces. How could it be gone?
"It's gone. It's gone. Someone came to the door yesterday and emptied everything." The landlady said impatiently, "I can still lie to you."
Jiang Sheng was dumbfounded.
Dusty cotton-padded clothes are hard to sell in the county town, otherwise they wouldn't be hoarding so many pieces, and the store wouldn't readily sell her at a cheap price.
The only possibility is that someone knew that she had made money selling cotton-padded clothes at the entrance of the village, and deliberately bought out the gray cotton-padded clothes first, leaving her with no business and no money to make.
Who is it, that unscrupulous person trying to steal business like this?
The small flames in Jiang Sheng's eyes were almost real, which shocked Zheng Ruqian.
"Little sister, Xiao Wu is right, we can't do this business, let's do another one." He advised in a low voice.
Jiang Sheng gritted his teeth, "This is not a question of which business you are doing, this is someone who robbed the business and grabbed it. Let me ask your second brother, what if someone robbed your business of serving food to Youranju?"
Zheng Ruqian, who had been trying to persuade others just now, jumped up and said, "Fuck him and beat him to death."
This means that you don’t know the pain unless the fist hits you.
Fang Heng, who was on the donkey cart, held his forehead and suggested, "How about changing to another store? There are at least three or four ready-made clothing stores in the county."
It is impossible to buy all the gray cotton clothes. Generally, people with so much capital would not bother to do this kind of business.
Zheng Ruqian regained his composure and pecked the rice, "Yes, yes, yes, little sister, don't be angry, let's find another store."
Jiang Sheng said nothing.
Her first reaction was also to buy cotton-padded clothes from another store.
But when she calmed down and thought about it, others were already selling gray cotton-padded clothes. Even if she could buy them again, it would be difficult to sell them.
Unless the price can be reduced to the point where there is no profit.
But she sells cotton clothes just to make money. Why do she still do this business if she doesn't make money?
Jiang Sheng felt that she should find a way to break this deadlock, but her life experience was too short and she was too young. Even if she struggled, she was only seven years old.
Jiang Sheng had no choice but to sit on the donkey cart in a daze.
When passing by Youranju, she suddenly stopped.
"Brothers, wait for me here." Jiang Sheng said nothing and rushed into Youran Residence.
She remembered that her second brother had just negotiated a business deal, and Shopkeeper Bai was clearly hesitant to refuse, but finally relented and agreed to cooperate.
Jiang Sheng understood that this move was to help them, so she wanted to see if Shopkeeper Bai could help her again.
This was the first time Jiang Sheng realized the truth of the world - people you have helped may not necessarily be able to help you, but most people who have helped you once are willing to help you a second time.
So when Jiang Sheng stood on tiptoe on the counter, called Uncle Bai obediently, and asked sincere questions, shopkeeper Bai stroked his beard and felt particularly relieved.
He did not skimp on this teaching, "This person robbed your business. You should think about how you can get this business back. It's best if he can't sell anything. Then it's worth paying some price."
Jiang Sheng thought for a long time before coming back to his senses.
She said goodbye to Shopkeeper Bai with a sweet smile, "Thank you, Uncle Bai," and jumped back to the carriage.
Shopkeeper Bai looked at her with a smile, filled with emotion in his heart.
The second brother in charge of the weighing was puzzled, "Shopkeeper, why do you have to help them again and again?"
"At a young age, I already know how to make money by doing business. This is an ability and talent that ordinary children do not have." Shopkeeper Bai said leisurely, "When I met him, I helped him and we just formed a good relationship."
As for their future achievements, it all depends on them.
The younger brother stopped talking and kept his head down and busy.
at the same time.
Jiang Sheng on the carriage had already made a decision and said, "Third brother, go to the clothing store."
Fang Heng thought she was planning to buy gray cotton clothes, so he quickly stopped in front of a new clothing store.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Sheng went in for a long time and bought a bunch of colorful and beautiful cotton-padded clothes.
"Are colored cotton-padded clothes and gray cotton-padded clothes the same price?" Zheng Ruqian couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Sheng shook his head, "A gray cotton coat is twelve cents a piece, and a colored cotton coat is fourteen cents a piece."
It was the price that she and the landlady got after spending a long time.
"This colorful cotton-padded coat cost fourteen cents, but it can't be sold for eighteen cents." Zheng Ruqian helped move the cotton-padded coat to the donkey cart.
Jiang Sheng said nothing.
When the donkey cart drove back, she opened her mouth softly, "If it doesn't sell for eighteen cents, it will sell for fourteen cents."
Zheng Ruqian was shocked. If he bought it at the original price, it would be a waste of money.
No, it's a loss, because the donkey cart can take four people back at a time and still earn eight cents.
Why would a girl who is always smart do such a loss-making business?
Zheng Ruqian was puzzled, and Fang Heng was even more confused.
Fortunately, it didn't take long to reach the entrance of the village.
From a distance, Fang Heng saw someone hawking at the entrance of the village. The exact same gray cotton-padded clothes and the exact same price attracted the ladies at the entrance of the village to scramble for them.
When I got closer, I saw that it was Aunt Zhang and her family who were the last ones to ask questions about cotton clothes.
It turns out that I came here last night to inquire about the enemy's situation.
Fang Heng was furious. Even though he was a rough man who only knew boxing and kicking, he could clearly see the sinister intentions of this family.
They first stared at Jiang Sheng's profitable business, and then took the opportunity to test it out. After confirming that Jiang Sheng would not purchase goods today, they rushed to buy up the goods and occupied the entrance of the village to sell.
His heart can be killed!
Jiang Sheng calmed down, jumped off the donkey cart, and greeted the fourth and fifth brothers in front of the ruined temple.
"Jiang Sheng, someone is taking your business." Wen Zhiyun was still so timid, but he stood up resolutely at this moment, "Fourth brother will accompany you to ask for an explanation."
"I'll go too." Fang Heng and Zheng Ruqian immediately expressed their opinions.
Xu Mo couldn't move.
Chang Yan said nothing, just tilted his head and stared at the colorful cotton clothes on the donkey cart.
Jiang Sheng was deeply moved, waving his hands and saying, "No, no, no, there is no first-come, first-served basis in business. If they want to sell, let them sell."
"As for cotton-padded clothes, anyone can sell them, as long as everyone doesn't offend the river."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chang Yan stepped forward, picked out a floral cotton coat from the bag, and replaced the gray cotton coat on his body.
Zheng Ruqian still wanted to stop him, "Xiao Wu, don't move."
But when Chang Yan finished dressing, he was stunned.
This little fifth brother was extremely handsome when he was born. After putting on the flowered cotton clothes, he looked even more beautiful like a little girl. If he had his hair braided into pigtails, people would believe him if he said he was a fairy girl.
Even the slightly tacky floral cotton-padded clothes look good.
Zheng Ruqian opened his mouth wide and watched Chang Yan slowly walk to the entrance of the village and stand obediently.
He suddenly understood, picked up a few cotton-padded clothes, grabbed Jiang Sheng and rushed over.
"We are selling cotton-padded clothes. Beautiful cotton-padded clothes only cost fourteen cents each!"
