Chen Long smiled calmly: "Boss, boss lady, please wait to greet the guests."
After that, he walked to the door, clasped his hands into trumpets, and shouted loudly: "Dear fellow villagers, young and old, please don't miss it if you pass by. Due to financial constraints, our store has dealt with a batch of high-quality clothing, shoes and hats at low prices. Buy one.
Get one for free, the original price of 16 yuan back-to-back sneakers is only 8 yuan..."
His voice was so loud that all the passers-by on the street looked over.
In the 1990s and early 2000s, almost everyone doing business was honest and honest, and there were not so many gimmicks.
People were immediately attracted by his shouts and walked over here one after another.
The deserted clothing store suddenly became busy...
At noon, the rain subsided, and everyone who went to the market went home.
There was no one in the clothing store anymore.
Chen Long's voice was almost hoarse.
But he is very happy that more than 80% of the stock in the store has been sold.
The boss and his wife excitedly counted the fruitful results. In just one hour, they sold more than 10,000 yuan.
In the past, they couldn't sell so much in 10 days and a half.
The boss was very happy and handed a wad of banknotes to Chen Long: "Brother, come on, these 600 yuan are for you!"
Chen Long took the money, took out a hundred-yuan bill from it, and handed it over: "Boss, this is the reward you gave me, as well as the clothes I'm wearing."
The boss waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, you have helped us a lot today. We are very grateful. You deserve the 50 yuan reward. As for the clothes you are wearing, I will give them to you for free."
"Boss, this is not okay. We have agreed that I can't take advantage of you.
Whether you are a person or a business, the key is trust, and you must accept this money."
Chen Long spoke sincerely and was very persistent.
The boss had no choice but to accept the money, patted him on the shoulder, and said with appreciation: "Brother, you are very smart, and you will definitely be a good businessman in the future."
"Boss, thank you for the compliment. Let's go."
Chen Long said hello, found a pocket, packed the wet clothes and shoes he had changed into, and walked out of the clothing store with confidence.
I made 550 yuan in one hour, and this trick was very good.
550 yuan is not a small number. The salary of many government agencies does not reach this amount. My father works in a briquette factory in the town and works very hard. He only earns more than 300 yuan a month.
He felt like he had become a rich man now.
I'm afraid it won't be long before the clothing stores on this street and even the entire Longzhou City will have signs such as "buy one get one free", "50% off", "clearance deal", "reduce price" and so on.
Now it's time to go on a shopping spree.
Chen Long walked straight to a famous clothing store...
Then there are shopping malls, farmers’ markets…
An hour later, he was carrying large and small bags with both hands and a bag on his shoulder.
After a meal of shopping, the 500 yuan in my pocket has not been used up, and I still have 10 yuan left.
He decided to have a good meal, and 10 yuan was enough to last him to death.
Looking around, he saw that there was a well-known restaurant on the corner of the street in front of him, called Juyou Restaurant. He knew the owner of the restaurant, his name was Zhou Xiong.
In his previous life, he took care of the hotel business.
He shouldered his handbag and strode towards the hotel.
It was already almost 1:30 in the afternoon, it was past dinner time, and there were no customers in the restaurant lobby. The boss, Zhou Xiong, was counting money at the counter to see how much he had earned throughout the morning.
Chen Long called out: "Hey, Boss Zhou."
Zhou Xiong looked up and didn't care about counting the money anymore. He put all the banknotes in the drawer and walked out quickly, saying hello with a smile: "Brother Long, you are here."
In fact, he is several years older than Chen Long, but Chen Long is a quite famous gangster in Qinglong Town. All his brothers call him Brother Long, so naturally he must also be called Brother Long.
Chen Long said grandly: "Boss Zhou, I haven't eaten yet. Bring me a plate of twice-cooked pork, a baby cabbage, a pickled cabbage and vermicelli soup, and a whole bowl of rice. Hurry up."
Zhou Xiong quickly ordered a waiter to go to the kitchen behind to order the dishes.
Chen Long found a table and sat down, placing large and small bags of things at his feet.
Zhou Xiong personally made him a cup of hot tea, placed it in front of him, took out a cigarette, and handed one over respectfully.
Chen Long waved his hand: "Thank you, Boss Zhou.
No more smoking."
"Brother Long, quit?"
"Yes, quit."
"Brother Long, I bought a lot of things today. They are all high-end products. I must have spent a lot of money."
"Not much, almost 500 yuan."
"Brother Long is really rich. No wonder so many brothers are willing to join you."
Zhou Xiong had a smile on his face and complimented against his will.
He didn't dare to offend such a powerful gangster at all.
Chen Long took a sip of tea and said seriously: "Boss Zhou, from now on, I won't bring my brothers with me, and I won't hang out with Lei Ba and the others. I want to go out to do business and make money to support my family."
Zhou Xiong immediately raised his thumb: "Brother Long, Gao.
You are so smart, courageous and knowledgeable, you can definitely make a lot of money."
In fact, he had great contempt in his heart.
It's strange that such a mixed bag can do business honestly.
The two chatted for a while, and then the waiter brought out the steaming food.
Chen Long chatted with Zhou Xiong while eating. After eating and drinking, he settled the accounts and got two dishes and one soup. After eating, he paid 9 yuan.
He took out the only 10-dollar bill he had and put it on the table.
Zhou Xiong was stunned and slightly surprised.
Usually when Chen Long takes his brothers out to eat and drink, he is rarely so cheerful. He often defaults on his debts or pays for nothing.
Otherwise, just roll up your sleeves and do it.
He waved his hand quickly: "Brother Long, I'm paying for this meal. It's free of charge."
Chen Long's face straightened: "Boss Zhou, I've already told you that I don't have any brothers anymore and I don't want to be a gangster anymore. The situation is very good now and I want to go out to do business, so don't be afraid."
"I know that I still owe you a lot of money. If I make money in the future, I will definitely pay you back."
Zhou Xiong looked at his firm eyes and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll accept it."
He collected 10 yuan and gave Chen Long 1 yuan in change.
This 1 yuan is just enough for Chen Long's fare home.
For 1 yuan, you can get a tricycle and travel two to three kilometers.
He went out carrying large and small bags, waved for a tricycle on the road outside, and drove away quickly.
Zhou Xiong stood at the door, watching the tricycle go away, and said to himself: "This bastard is different from before. He has changed a lot..."
