Yu Tian wanted to have a good chat with the vendor selling socks.
If the conversation goes well, maybe we can have a few drinks and make friends.
In the 1980s, business opportunities were everywhere.
Although Yu Tian still lacks capital.
But he couldn't let go of the business opportunity.
The clarion call for reform and opening up has been sounded. Only those who are ahead can get rich, and those who fall behind can only be beaten.
Yu Tian asked Li Wanrou to buy some preserved fruits and cakes first for visiting her parents.
I watched the stall for a while, then slowly walked closer, squatted down, and started chatting with the stall owner.
"Brother, how much does a pair of these socks cost?"
Yu Tian pointed to the pairs of acrylic socks placed on the cloth.
"Six cents! Want a pair?"
When the stall owner sees business coming in, he should say something.
The cost of acrylic socks is very low, costing about 15 cents.
The wholesale price is not cheap, about 35 cents.
The stall owner sells them for 60 cents, and if you buy a pair, you can make more than 20 cents.
Although the profits are high, the quality of the socks is worrying. The acrylic ones not only do not absorb sweat, but also the style is not good-looking.
Even if you sell ten pairs a day, you can only make more than three yuan.
Although the daily income is higher than that of factory workers, it seems to be higher on average.
But if it's cloudy and rainy, plus the stall fees paid, in a month's time, the income may not be much more than that of the workers, it may be much less, and the uncertainty is too great.
"Let's get two pairs."
Yu Tian picked two pairs at random and said, "These acrylic socks are not easy to wear. My cousin also sells socks in other places. I think they sell cotton socks, which are sweat-absorbent and comfortable, and the price is not more expensive than yours."
How many."
"of course!"
The stall owner spread his hands and smiled helplessly, "Cotton is easy to wear, but the wholesale price here is too expensive and the quality is not good! We small stall owners usually only sell this kind. Hey, comrade, what are you doing?
What do you mean? You also want to get a share of the pie, right? To tell you the truth, this business is not easy to do. If my family had land, I would farm it so that I wouldn’t be exposed to the wind and sun here."
"No no no."
Yu Tian handed out a cigarette to the stall owner, "Brother, this is what I thought. It happened that in half a month, my cousin was coming back from other places to visit me, so I asked him to bring me a lot of socks. Originally, I was
I want to sell it myself, but I am busy with farming and have many things at home, so I can’t take care of it myself. So... can I get it from you then and you can help me sell it? Don’t worry about the price! And I can also handle the quality.
Guaranteed! The most important thing is that you don’t have to pay a penny in advance. After selling, we will settle the account and share the share. Do you think it’s feasible?”
These words are quite powerful.
In the 1980s, there was no such precedent.
The model of distributing goods, selling goods, and then settling the payment was called Di Tui after a few decades.
The stall owner only thought about Yu Tian's request for a moment before agreeing.
Since you don’t have to pay a penny yourself, why not?
The two of them were about the same age, and they became warm after chatting for a while, and seemed to hit it off.
After exchanging names, Yu Tian bought two bottles of beer and some peanuts, and the two sat at the stall and continued chatting while eating.
The stall owner's name is Sun Hengchao, who is two years younger than Yu Tian.
My family lives in the suburbs of Spring City, and I usually make money by setting up stalls.
Half an hour later, Li Wanrou came back carrying large and small packages.
She bought a lot of pastries and two pairs of cloth shoes.
After Yu Tian memorized Sun Hengchao's contact information and address, he stood up and left.
He planned to buy two more clothes for Li Wanrou, but Li Wanrou refused.
"forget it..."
Li Wanrou looked at the things in her hands and whispered, "I have spent a lot of money. Besides, I still have clothes at home, which is enough for me..."
The clothes at home are all old clothes from many years ago.
Except for the red dress she wore when she got married, Li Wanrou's other clothes had patches, big and small.
She is only in her twenties this year and is in her prime.
She is also a girl who lives in the city. How could she not love beauty?
Even though he said no.
But her beautiful and translucent eyes would wander around various stalls from time to time, staring at the beautiful clothes, full of yearning.
"You don't want it? Then I want it!"
Yu Tian took the things, took Li Wanrou's hand, and walked to a small clothing stall.
From what he meant, it seemed like he wanted to buy clothes for himself.
But when he picked around, all he found were women's clothes.
Li Wanrou'e frowned slightly, held Yu Tian's hand, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you buying it for yourself? Why do you always look at women's clothes..."
"yes!"
Yu Tian chose two pieces, "If you don't want them, I can only buy them and wear them myself. From now on, we will be good sisters! But if you regret it now, it's still too late! Otherwise, I will go back to the village wearing women's clothes! Here we are.
Sometimes, you have to bear it when others criticize you!"
These words made Li Wanrou giggle.
With a smile as bright as a flower, she gently hit Yu Tian on the shoulder.
Life is beautiful, but it has mixed blessings and sorrows.
But Yu Tian only wanted to bring joy to Li Wanrou, and he would bear all the sorrow himself.
After Yu Tian's persuasion, Li Wanrou reluctantly bought two floral tops.
She took off her old clothes and put on new ones, and soon became a beautiful sight in the crowd.
She was extremely beautiful, and her beauty made many men and women passing by turn their heads.
"Beautiful... so beautiful, so beautiful. I want to announce to the whole world that my wife is the most beautiful woman!"
Yu Tian's eyes were full of love, he caressed Li Wanrou's clothes and shook his head in praise.
He speaks in a loud voice, and he has a bit of a "social badass" feeling, but he speaks from the bottom of his heart.
"Stop talking nonsense...you...why did you choose to cooperate with that stall owner just now?"
Li Wanrou's face turned red and she hurriedly dragged Yu Tian back while changing the topic.
"that..."
Yu Tian still kept his eyes on Li Wanrou and explained as he walked, "His stall is in a very good location. I just observed it briefly for a while, and many colleagues often come to chat with him. This shows that he is well-connected and has a certain appeal.
Besides, he is a pretty solid person, so I think we can try to get in touch with him, and then we can use his strength to make a small step forward in the provincial capital through him."
Yu Tian only has one cousin, his third brother.
As for his cousin from other provinces, he was the one who deceived him according to his circumstances.
He didn’t have any socks, and he didn’t have the money to purchase them.
But these are not problems.
He already had a good idea in his mind that was probably feasible.
If everything goes well, it is very possible to become a household worth 10,000 yuan, or even a household worth 100,000 yuan.
"You have really changed a lot. I have never heard you say such a thing before..."
Li Wanrou got into the back seat of the car, with a rare look of happiness on her face.
The road in Spring City is very wide, and her mind is gradually becoming broader and brighter.
"By the way, Yu Tian, are you going to see your second brother tonight?"
I bought a lot of pastries. This trip to the provincial capital cost me fourteen or five yuan.
"No."
Yu Tian shook his head, "I'll go back tomorrow morning. I'm going to give them some more eggs. I collected a lot today. When they are sold out tomorrow, let's go there together before noon! Now go back to the county town, I want to buy some good things.
