Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

"The hostility this time is definitely mine. I have already thought about what I want to ask of you."

"Stop bragging. You often fall asleep while reading, so you must not have done as well as me in the exam!"

"I think I can take first place."

Xu Wanning listened to the conversation between the three of them, with a faint smile on her lips.

"Stop arguing." She interrupted the three of them: "When do you plan to go home? I'll say hello to my third brother in advance and ask him to reserve sleeper tickets for you."

Xu Wanning knew that the last time they sold clothes, the three of them made a net profit of thousands of dollars.

In the late 70s, thousands of dollars was not a small amount of money, especially for college students.

It is not too difficult for Chen Qiaoqiao and Gu Meng to spend a fraction of their earned money to buy a train sleeper ticket.

Chen Qiaoqiao and Gu Meng looked at each other and said, "Wan Ning, we don't plan to go home for the time being."

"We have made an appointment with Tingting. She will take us for a walk in Beijing these days. I have been in Beijing for more than a year and I have never been to many famous scenic spots. I will wait until the test results come out. , we plan to go to Yangcheng and bring back some clothes to sell."

It's not that they haven't thought about asking Xu Wanning to help, but Chen Qiaoqiao and the other two knew how busy she was. She was so busy that she didn't even have time to spend time with her children. How could they bear to trouble her?

Besides, Xu Wanning didn't go to Yangcheng along the way this time, so it was even harder for them to open their mouths.

After listening to Chen Qiaoqiao's words, Xu Wanning fell into a brief silence.

After a long while, she slowly spoke: "To be honest, I don't think it is a good choice for you to go to Yangcheng at this time."

"Why?" the three of them asked in unison, looking at her in confusion.

Xu Wanning explained patiently: "The batch of cotton clothes and woolen jackets I brought back from Yangcheng last time were all the inventory that the boss had accumulated for a long time. It can be said that it was due to the right time, place, and various coincidences that I took them. Got those clothes at extremely low prices.”

"Not to mention that Yangcheng is like summer all year round. You don't have the opportunity to wear such thick clothes. Even if you go and find it, you won't be able to buy it for more than ten yuan."

Xu Wanning's eyes fell on Tang Ting: "I believe Tang Ting has the right to say this, because she has been to Yangcheng in person and knows that the prices in Yangcheng are not as simple as you think."

Tang Ting nodded: "Yes. Do you still remember the clothes we sold for the first time? The purchase price of a thin coat is more than 30 yuan. Winter clothes use more cloth, especially cotton clothes and fillers. The cost has gone up, so the price is naturally not low.”

Gu Meng said: "Based on the purchase price of a cotton coat of 60 yuan, if we sell it for 50 yuan, we still have a profit of [-] yuan. It is not considered a loss."

"That's what I said, but that's not how the costs were calculated." Xu Wanning simply took out a pen and paper and listed the costs one by one.

"The one-way train ticket from Beijing to Yangcheng is 37 yuan and 240 cents. For the three of you to go to Yangcheng together, the round-trip train ticket will be nearly 20 yuan. And a night in the guest house is [-] yuan. In addition, , and there are some unavoidable expenses on the road, such as meals, etc., so let’s keep it as three hundred.”

"In addition to these fixed expenses, there is another issue that you have missed, and that is the cost of shipping. Do you know how high the price was last time I shipped my cotton clothes and woolen coats back?"

In fact, she didn't spend a penny. After all, she had the space to carry it with her, so she just took it with her.

But Tang Ting and the others don't have space. If they want to transport the clothes back, the transportation fee is indispensable.

"Based on fifty pieces of cotton clothing, the transportation fee alone will cost more than 100 yuan."

Calculating it this way, it seems that the profit is indeed not big. Calculated based on fifty pieces of clothing, the final amount is less than 1000 yuan. If divided into each person's hands, it will only be a few hundred yuan.

It sounds like a lot at first, but compared to the last time they made money at their peak, it seems pitifully small.

"The most important thing is that you are strangers to three beautiful lesbians. You spent thousands of dollars to buy clothes. If someone with ulterior motives catches your eye, the goods will be lost and the money will be lost." Xiao, if something happens to you, what should you do?"

When Xu Wanning said this, Xu Wanning immediately stopped thinking and wouldn't go, not even to the death.

Chen Qiaoqiao sat on the stool with a dejected look on her face, covering her face with her hands, and her voice was choked: "But I don't want to go home."

When she called back a few days ago, her parents asked her when she would have a holiday. Chen Qiaoqiao thought her parents were caring about her, but the next thing she said was that she could help them when she got home from the holiday and they could rest.

As a daughter, she should help her parents.

But the premise is that the parents' hardship is entirely caused by the elder brother and younger brother.

Every penny they earn now is used to earn bride price for their two sons.

Although Chen Qiaoqiao's mother said that if her sons get married in the future, if they have any money left over, they will give her some dowry.

But this was just a matter of hearing it. How could she take it seriously?

My elder brother and younger brother don't have to work very hard every day. They can help their parents after get off work so that they can take a break.

But they never had this awareness.

The parents also feel that it is okay if their son does not help, but they ask their daughter to take the initiative to help.

Chen Qiaoqiao felt unbalanced and naturally didn't want to go home so early.

Gu Meng also drooped his face: "I have tasted the joy of making money, and I also want to make more money during the period before the Chinese New Year to buy gifts for my parents and family when I go home."

Without being able to go to Yangcheng, her plan to make money would be ruined.

Tang Ting was not happy either.

When her parents found out that she was setting up a stall to sell clothes in the market, they scolded her severely and repeatedly asked her not to sell them anymore.

To put it bluntly, she didn't want her to embarrass them.

But when they learned that Tang Ting had earned thousands of dollars in just half a month, her parents' attitude suddenly changed and they no longer forced her to do so.

Seeing the same dejected look on the three of them, Xu Wanning said helplessly: "Just because you can't sell clothes doesn't mean you can't sell other things."

As soon as the words fell, the three of them looked at her with burning eyes: "Wan Ning, you have an idea, right?"

Xu Wanning looked at Tang Ting: "I remember you said that your sister-in-law works in a sock factory, right?"

"Yes, my sister-in-law is still in the supplies department." Tang Ting's tone was a little proud. The socks that came with the clothes sold last time were obtained by her sister-in-law.

"As far as I know, factories like this generally have defective products, and sock factories also have them, right?"
