Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt
Chapter 68 Clothing Store Purchase
Mrs. Xie was very happy when she heard the price of 40 yuan: "I agree, but I am a little unsure. You can ask me to serve dishes and wash dishes, that's no problem, but if I want to be a receptionist, I don't know anything about it."
"It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. You can learn to ride a horse by riding on horseback. You will be able to do it once you start riding. Don't worry about this problem. Come on, let's eat dumplings together."
"I ate lunch. I really ate lunch."
"What did you eat? The corners of your mouth are still dry. Stop being pretentious and eat quickly." Liu Xia Lian pulled Xie Ersao into the house to eat dumplings.
Mrs. Xie really wanted to eat, but she couldn't say it because her husband did nothing but drink and sleep. He never worked in the fields, let alone thought about making money. The last time she ate meat was when Daya and Erya cooked at their homes.
Mrs. Xie took over from Erya to make the fire. After a while, the water was boiling. The dumplings were put into the pot. After they boiled, half a bucket of water was added. When it boiled, it was done and ready to be eaten.
My mother also boiled oil in a small pot and made mashed garlic, which tasted so delicious.
Li Damei took a bite of the dumpling and her mouth hurt from the burn. She said, "Sister, let's go to the forest farm. My family still has ten pounds of yellow sheep meat. I want to send it to mother and ask her to make dumplings for my brother."
"Okay, no problem. If I'm not at home in the future, just pull the big blue horse carriage wherever you want to go. Just be careful."
Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "Damei, young girls must not act alone. It's really dangerous."
Li Damei snorted, "I am Sister Xia Lian's eldest disciple. I have mastered the Eighteen Black Dragon Moves. Three or two people cannot get close to me."
The five women had big appetites, so they ate all the dumplings until they were full. Second Sister Xie went home, and Daya and Erya were also sleepy and wanted to go back to take a nap.
Mother took two bowls of dumplings and gave them to Liu Xialian: "Give these dumplings to your father. Eating in the cafeteria every day doesn't have much oil."
"Mom, don't worry, my dad is a leader now, he has everything he needs to eat."
Pull up the fish, pull up six yellow sheep, and harness the big black mule.
Li Damei said: "Why don't you pretend to have one?"
"Let's keep it for ourselves. Da Ya and Er Ya love to eat meat. Let's share the rest with my eldest sister and the others. A sheep doesn't produce much meat. We can't let the old woman who sells salt drink bland soup."
Liu Xialian and Damei delivered the six yellow sheep to the forest farm canteen that afternoon. The canteen director was very happy. The yellow sheep meat was delicious and had a good taste. The workers loved it. They sold it for several hundred yuan.
The decoration of the clothing store was very simple, just whitewashing, laying floor tiles, installing chandeliers, and the shelves ordered from the city had also arrived. In the evening, we went to the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative together. It was time to choose the source of goods for the clothing store. The clothes and shoes were all popular nowadays, but the wholesale price was really not cheap. For example, the wholesale price of a pair of Jiefang shoes was 1.8 yuan, and the retail price was only 2.5 yuan. A pair of cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles had a wholesale price of 1.2 yuan and a retail price of 1.7 yuan. The clothing was similar, with profits but not high. Liu Xialian ordered hundreds of sets at once, and the money in her wallet was gone.
After leaving the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative, Liu Xialian kept shaking her head: "Too expensive, too expensive."
"Sister, I think there is profit. A pair of shoes that cost 1.8 yuan can be sold for 2.5 yuan, which is 70 cents profit."
"Damei, you only see the surface. Rent, industrial and commercial taxes, employee wages, and cargo damage are all big costs. If you buy goods for 1.8 yuan and sell them for 2.5 yuan, the best result is that you will lose money."
Li Damei suddenly realized that this is how the expenses of running a business and opening a store are calculated: "What should we do? We have no other channels to purchase goods except the supply and marketing cooperative."
"There are more channels for purchasing goods. Now many places have their own shoe and clothing factories. In some places, state-owned enterprises have been contracted out to private individuals, so there is no need to worry about the supply of goods. We will go south to Guangzhou and Shenzhou in the next two days to find the latest clothes and shoes. Although the store is not big, we can still sell hundreds of yuan a day and make tens of dollars."
You won’t know until you calculate it. Once you do, you will be shocked. Several dozen dollars a day is equivalent to an ordinary person’s monthly salary. One month of opening a store is equivalent to an ordinary person’s two years’ salary. This is how wealth is accumulated, and this is how the gap between the rich and the poor is created.
The store is over 150 square meters and has no shared space, so it needs at least three employees. Li Damei has to recruit these people herself, and Liu Xia Lian will not be involved.
In the afternoon, Liu Xia Lian stayed at the forest farm guesthouse. Li Damei came to her home at the forest farm carrying more than ten kilograms of yellow sheep meat. Her father, mother, and younger brother who was in elementary school were all there.
"Mom, this is the yellow sheep meat from yesterday's hunting. It tastes delicious. You guys should try it."
Li Zhendao, the younger brother, came over and took Li Damei's hand: "Sister, tell me the story of hunting."
My mother glared at me and said, "Go study, don't neglect your studies."
My younger brother went to study. My mother looked at Li Damei and said, "You are a girl, but you are always wielding swords and guns. What will your in-laws say about you?"
"What do you mean? Hunting is a normal thing. What's there to say?"
"Your mother-in-law sent a message saying that in half a month, his family will slaughter the New Year pig. You should go over to help. I guess they are going to set a date for the wedding, either before or after the New Year."
"Okay, got it." Li Damei was somewhat unsure. It seemed like her target, Yang Xiaowei, was gambling, but she didn't have 100% evidence.
Dad asked Li Damei: "I heard that you also went there on the day of the man-eating tiger hunt. How did you kill such a big tiger?"
"I only followed to the foot of the mountain. Sister Xia Lian didn't let me go up. It was said that Xu Shiba hit the tiger's butt, Daya and Erya shot the tiger in the chest with a crossbow, and Sister Xia Lian shot the tiger's head. I don't know the details, I didn't go."
Dad sighed and said, "Come back and get married. You are not young anymore. People your age already have children."
Nothing happened that night. In the morning Liu Xia Lian and Li Da Mei returned to the village. Li Da Mei found two girls from the village, both in their twenties, eloquent and with a few years of education. They were two sales clerks. When they heard that they would be provided with food and accommodation, and had a monthly salary of 30 yuan plus bonuses, they jumped for joy.
Li Damei came back and told Liu Xialian: "We have found a salesperson, but the source of goods is still a big problem. Selling goods from the supply and marketing cooperative is just a waste of time. There is no profit."
"Then let's go to Guangzhou. I don't believe we won't be able to find a source of goods."
Information was too blocked these days, and it was impossible to find manufacturers through newspapers, so one could only go to wholesale markets. It was precisely because of this situation that physical stores became so popular.
Liu Xialian thought about the fact that the weather had been getting colder recently, the fishing catch was very poor, and there was nothing else to do, so she decided to go out for a walk. She immediately told her mother, "Mom, I've decided to go to Guangzhou to look for sources of clothing and shoes."
My mother was drinking water when she spat out a mouthful of tea: "You have never been out of the house alone since you were a child. Be careful that human traffickers will catch you and sell you to the mountains as a wife."
