It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when the three of them arrived at the "Clothing Street" on Huating Road.
The sun was still strong, and all three of them were covered in hot sweat.
Fortunately, the "Clothing Street" is lined with big trees, and the stalls selling clothes are all under the shade of the trees. Plus, there is a gust of wind blowing from time to time, so it is quite cool.
Liu Ye stood at the intersection and looked forward. There were stalls selling clothes on both sides.
Many young girls were walking around in front of the stall, choosing clothes.
"Girl, do you want to buy some clothes? Come to my house and have a look. These are all the latest styles."
A fat proprietress selling clothes at the intersection saw the three of them and immediately greeted them warmly.
"Auntie, we are not here to buy clothes, we are here to sell hairpins."
Zhao Jingmei hurriedly rejected the enthusiastic aunt.
"Ah? Selling hairpins?"
The aunt was confused. This road was full of clothes sellers, but no one had ever sold hairpins here.
Liu Ye silently looked at the stalls on both sides and found that the entire street was occupied. There was a "seamless connection" between stalls. There was no room for her to set up a stall.
However, this is not a problem for Willow Ye.
"Auntie, can you give us some stalls? We don't need a big space, a small area is enough."
"This... girl, look, my stall is full of clothes..."
Obviously, Auntie is not willing.
"Auntie, we won't use your place in vain. From now until six o'clock, I will pay you two dollars."
There is no free lunch in the world, and Liuye will not take advantage of it in vain.
Zhao Dagang gave her five yuan before, three of which were used to sell duckbill clips, and the remaining two yuan should be used as stall fees!
"Okay then! You place it here."
Liuye gave the money, and the aunt happily agreed.
Anyway, it's only a small space, and it's only until six o'clock.
If you don’t make this money, you won’t make it in vain!
As soon as she finished speaking, the aunt pulled the clothes at the front to make a small space for Liu Ye.
Liuye immediately took out the hairpins and hair ties from the cloth bag and arranged them one by one.
"Oh! These hair clips and hair ties are so beautiful! Where did you buy them?"
The aunt was amazed when she saw the hairpins poured out.
This was the first time she had seen such beautiful hairpins, and they came in all kinds of patterns.
There are bow-shaped ones, flower-shaped ones, sun-shaped ones...
“We did it ourselves!”
Zhao Jingsong responded very proudly.
After hearing this, the aunt just smiled and did not answer.
She didn't believe these hairpins were made by three people.
Seeing that these three people were well dressed, I guessed they were the children of workers in some factory.
It is very possible that these hairpins are made by the factory, and they are selling them as defective products with some defects!
"How much does one cost? I'll buy a few!"
Although I was very suspicious of the origin of these hairpins, I couldn't resist the fact that they looked really good. My aunt wanted to buy them as soon as she saw them.
"Fifty cents each, pick whatever you want!"
After Liuye flattened the hairpins and hair ties, she spread her hands and motioned to her aunt to choose them.
The aunt walked to Liuye and took a closer look. She was in trouble.
I saw her picking this one, then another one, choosing left and right, but nothing was selected.
It's not that she's dissatisfied, it's that she's so satisfied that she wants everything.
After choosing for a while, she finally made a decision and took a satin hairpin, a flower hairpin, a plain dark blue hairband and a yellow background with white flowers.
She used the satin hairpins and plain hair ties for herself.
Flower hairpins and white flower hairbands were given to the girls in her family.
"Auntie, you took four, which is exactly two yuan, so you can cover the stall fee!"
Liuye calculated quickly.
"Okay!"
The aunt responded loudly and couldn't wait to put the hairpin on her head.
A plain blue hair tie was also tied up.
"This hairpin is so beautiful!"
Just as the aunt took away two hairpins and two hair ties, a tall girl who had just stepped onto Huating Road was attracted by the hairpins displayed by Liu Ye.
"Fifty cents each, you can choose whatever you want! See which one you like?"
When the guests arrived, Liuye immediately greeted them warmly.
"Yanyan, which one do you think is more beautiful?"
The tall girl picked up two different hairpins and couldn't decide, so she had to ask her companion for help.
"Both are pretty good-looking."
Some fat girls traveling with me frowned and couldn't make up their minds.
"How about... I'll buy them both!"
The tall girl couldn't bear to give up any of them, so she simply bit it, took out a dollar note, and handed it directly to Liu Ye.
"I'll buy a hair tie too!"
The fat girl was not going to buy hairpins, but she took a fancy to a blue and white plaid hair tie.
This pattern is really fashionable, much more beautiful than the yellow and red ones on the market.
After paying, the fat girl immediately put the hair tie on her ponytail.
"Does it look good?"
she asked the tall girl expectantly.
"nice!"
The tall girl's eyes lit up when she saw it, and she immediately started choosing a hair tie.
"Do you want to buy it too?"
The fat girl asked puzzledly.
"Yes! Such a beautiful hair tie, of course I have to buy it."
"But you have short hair, so you won't be able to use it if you buy it!"
A tall girl with shoulder-length short hair really doesn't need a hair tie.
"I'll buy it for my sister!"
Of course she knew she wouldn't need it, but she couldn't help but want to buy it.
Because it's really beautiful.
As a result, in the end, the tall girl bought two hairpins and two hair ties, and the fat girl also bought a hairpin and a hair tie.
In a short time, Liuye had three yuan in his account.
Zhao Jingmei and Zhao Jingsong on one side were shocked.
I earned three yuan so easily!
After the tall girl and the fat girl opened the store for Liuye, groups of young girls soon came.
Anyone who sees hair clips and hair ties will buy one or two.
What's more, I liked every one of them and couldn't choose between them, so I actually bought eight of them in one go.
Liuye originally planned to set up the stall until six o'clock, but unexpectedly, just over half an hour later, all the hairpins and hair ties were sold out.
Later, her stall was crowded with people.
"It's all sold out, please stop crowding! Stop crowding!"
There were few people at the beginning, and Liu Ye could handle it alone.
Later, there were more people, so Zhao Jingmei and Zhao Jingsong naturally wanted to help.
Now that everything was sold out, a large group of people crowded behind, and Zhao Jingmei could only shout at the top of her lungs.
"It's gone?"
"I've been waiting for so long, but I can't even buy it!"
"Why don't you buy more goods?"
…
The girls who couldn't buy it started complaining.
"Don't worry, everyone, I will come here to sell again tomorrow, you can come and buy then!"
Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Liuye had no choice but to declare that she would come back tomorrow.
After hearing this, the crowded crowd slowly dispersed.
