Chapter 443 Prepare for a dinner party at the end of the year
With Xu Erlong's bold encouragement, Luo Chunmei tried to take a few steps.
There is no pain like scratching your feet like new leather shoes, and your feet feel relaxed.
Especially when I stand in front of the shoe-fitting mirror, my legs are straight and paired with such a pair of leather shoes, I really show off my temperament.
Luo Chunmei was very satisfied that she finally found a pair of shoes that suited her.
She originally wanted to support Xu Erlong and join in the fun, so she didn't care too much.
Besides, autumn and winter are here, and it’s time to change to a pair of leather shoes.
"Okay, let's take this pair. How much does it cost?" Luo Chunmei asked.
"Aunt Luo, these shoes are made of top-quality materials. They are made of first-layer calfskin and are high-end goods shipped from Shanghai. The price is eighty-eight yuan." Xu Erlong replied.
Wang Yan, who was trying on shoes next to her, almost staggered with fright.
Eighty-eight yuan for a pair of leather shoes? That’s scary.
Isn’t this two or three months’ salary without food or drink?
Wang Yan has now put on one shoe. She is embarrassed and confused. Should she take off the shoe or put on the other shoe?
"Aunt Luo, since we are all acquaintances, if you can buy it with peace of mind, I can give you a discount. It only costs you eighty yuan." Xu Erlong replied again.
Luo Chunmei looked at the leather shoes on her feet in detail.
She knows the goods and knows that the shoes on her feet cost more than a hundred dollars, which is completely normal.
These days, cowhide is very valuable.
In the 1970s and 1980s, cows were a valuable means of production in rural areas. Very few cows were killed, and cowhide was naturally even less.
Using this layer of calfskin to make such a pair of leather shoes, the price of eighty yuan is considered fair.
"Eighty yuan is no problem, but I don't have that much money with me when I go out to buy rice." Luo Chunmei said, "Otherwise, I'll buy it another day."
Xu Erlong smiled and said: "What did Aunt Luo say? Everyone is so familiar with it. If you ask for money without money, just take the shoes and bring me the money whenever you have time to pass by."
"Okay, then I will bring you the money another day." Luo Chunmei said.
Anyway, she won the match today.
What's more, the leather shoes are worth the money, and the favors and things are also available.
Wang Yan put on her leather shoes at the greeting of Yu Ping next to her. At that moment, she was trembling with fear.
I can't help it, mainly because I was scared by the price.
"Comrade, you can try to take a few steps, a pair of shoes, the most important thing is whether they are comfortable or not." Xu Erlong motioned for her to take a few bold steps.
You can wear modest clothes, but you must choose shoes that fit your feet and are comfortable.
After all, wearing small shoes is generally recognized as uncomfortable.
"Isn't that bad?" Wang Yan said, thinking to herself, if the leather shoes get wrinkles after walking a few steps, then they must buy them themselves.
"It doesn't matter. You can try a few steps dressed like this and there will be no problem." Xu Erlong said.
Wang Yan tried taking a few steps and found a pair of comfortable leather shoes. The feeling of wearing them was just different.
"These leather shoes look pretty good on you," Luo Chunmei said.
"Really?" Wang Yan smiled bitterly and glanced at the shoe fitting mirror.
I have a really good figure, and wearing a pair of leather shoes like this under my pants looks very fashionable and pretty.
Wang Yan was excited, but felt that the price was unacceptable.
She asked Xu Erlong: "Is this also made of first-layer calfskin?"
"Oh, this is not it." Xu Erlong said frankly: "This pair of shoes is made of two-layer cowhide, and the price is relatively much cheaper."
"How much?" Wang Yan asked.
Xu Erlong pointed to the price sign: "This pair of shoes only costs thirty-two yuan."
This is more than half cheaper than the price of eighty-eight just now.
Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but thirty-two, which is almost a month's salary, is still expensive.
Luo Chunmei smiled and said: "These shoes look really good on you, buy them."
She turned around and said to Xu Erlong: "This is my friend, why don't you give me a discount too?"
Xu Erlong smiled and said: "Since the friend Aunt Luo brought has spoken in person, of course I will give you a discount. Let's just give him twenty-eight yuan."
"It's still expensive." Wang Yan whispered.
Yu Ping, the missing teeth made everyone feel cold.
Look, this leather shoe store looks good, but the price is too expensive and other people cannot accept it.
It seems that there is no way this business can be done.
"Not expensive." Xu Erlong emphasized seriously: "A pair of leather shoes costs about thirty yuan, which is really not expensive. Look, our leather shoes are of such good quality that they can be worn for five years without any problem. If you divide them evenly, one year
It only costs six yuan, which is only fifty cents a month, which is less than two cents a day. Isn’t this quite cheap? Besides, as long as you take good care of a pair of leather shoes, they will last for more than five years.”
Wang Yan had been struggling in her heart. Thirty yuan of leather shoes was equivalent to one month's salary. They were so expensive that she couldn't bear to part with them.
But listening to Xu Erlong's calculations, she suddenly felt that two cents a day was indeed not expensive.
I am a worker in a chemical factory, with an iron rice bowl, and a monthly salary of thirty or forty yuan, but I still don’t deserve two cents a day?
Just like eating a popsicle.
Besides, the popsicles are gone after you eat them, but these leather shoes can always be worn on your feet.
At this moment, Wang Yan seemed to have been opened up to Ren and Du. After thinking about it, she felt generous and happy: "Then I will buy this pair."
Yu Ping and Qian Ya looked at this and looked at each other.
They all thought that there was no way to facilitate this business.
Unexpectedly, Xu Erlong actually sealed this deal.
In fact, Xu Erlong's rhetoric now seems to be extremely simple and broken down into parts.
In particular, many online loan platforms are more accustomed to using this conversion method. They never mention how much you borrowed, what is the annual rate, and how much interest you have to pay in total. They just repeatedly emphasize to you how much interest you only need to bear per day.
.
This gives everyone the illusion that such a small amount of money a day is completely affordable.
Xu Erlong now uses the same principle and converts it to two cents a day, which is certainly within the acceptable range of these workers.
Wang Yan paid happily, and Huang Xiaogang helped put the leather shoes into the box with quick hands and feet.
"Can this really be worn for five years?" Wang Yan asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, our quality is guaranteed." Xu Erlong reached out, filled out two cards, and handed one to each of Luo Chunmei and Wang Yan: "This is our three-pack card."
"Three packs of cards?" Luo Chunmei and Wang Yan heard this term for the first time and were very surprised.
"Yes, all shoes purchased in our shoe store will be returned if they have not been worn within a week or have serious quality problems;
If there are any quality problems such as broken bottom or broken ends within one month, we will guarantee a replacement;
If there are any problems such as glue opening, disconnection, or tracking within three months, we will guarantee repairs.”
