Traveling through the Eighth Five-Year Plan: Starting from selling fruit at a stall

Wang Zhaoyang grinned and said, "Xiaoyue, you are worrying too much. Now it is not like before. There used to be no greenhouse vegetables, and the roads were blocked by heavy snow, so there must be no vegetables to eat. But now the greenhouse vegetables have been on the market, why are you still worried about no vegetables?" eat?"

Ling Yue was startled, now there are out-of-season vegetables?

Seeing her disbelief, Wang Zhaoyang stopped what he was doing and said, "You seldom go to the vegetable market since you opened this store, and Xiaohua has never touched it before, so I dare not buy it. I thought you knew it Did not say."

"Actually, as early as mid-September, greenhouse vegetables were on the market, but the price was a bit more expensive than seasonal vegetables."

Ling Yue smiled awkwardly, a gust of cold wind blew, and she breathed hot air into her palm: "That's right."

"Don't worry about transportation. There are many farmers in the suburbs of Qingpu growing their own greenhouse vegetables. When the weather clears up, you can go around by yourself."

Hearing what he said, Ling Yue immediately felt relieved.

Don't worry about the food, what about the purchase?
It has been snowing for a whole day, and there is no sign of stopping until now. Ling Yue is really worried that the train will stop because of this.

Once the train stops, the clothes in the store will not last for a few days at all.

Do you want to find a source nearby?

Thinking of this, Ling Yue asked, "Zhaoyang, is there a garment factory in Qingpu City?"

"Yes." Wang Zhaoyang looked at her strangely: "Why are you asking this?"

"There are too few cotton-padded clothes in the store, and the snow is getting heavier and heavier. I am a little worried that it is inconvenient to go to Zhushi, so I want to find a source nearby."

The wind at the door was so strong that Ling Yue stomped her feet.

She said: "If the nearby goods are not worse than those in Zhushi, then I will buy them in Qingpu City."

Purchasing goods in Qingpu City is really the next choice, but there is no way now, there are many ways to choose from.

There are quite a few clothes sellers in Qingpu City, and not every shopkeeper goes to Qingpu City to buy goods like her.

You don't need to investigate this point, you just need to look at the clothes styles in the other shop.

Wang Zhaoyang suddenly realized: "That's right, the sudden heavy snowfall will definitely affect the business."

He stopped what he was doing and said, "You can go and see it if you want, how about this, how about we pull Ji Mid-Autumn Festival together?"

"Okay, when shall we go see?"

Wang Zhaoyang put the shovel by the wall, and picked up the broom to sweep the remaining snow on the ground: "It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. It's cold these two days, and there are no people on the road. Why don't we just give them two days off and let's go and see?"

Ling Yue never thought that the store would have to be closed to buy goods in the past.

Xu Shi saw her hesitation, and Wang Zhaoyang quickly swept the snow in front of the door, "I'm going to tell Ji Zhongqiu now, let him give the employees a day off tomorrow, and we can let Xiaohua watch over here. There is no need to close the door, what do you think?"

Ling Yue agreed.

The snow fell more and more heavily, until after four o'clock in the afternoon, Ling Yue only sold two cotton coats and two cotton trousers.

She said worriedly: "I really didn't expect that the snow could affect our business to such an extent."

Although the two sets of clothes also earned 30 yuan, but apart from the water, electricity, rent and staff wages, it can only be said that there is no loss today.

After waiting for another half an hour, Ling Yue was worried that Chen Zhaodi and Chen Zhaodi would not be able to go back, so they asked them to go back early.

Before 05:30, Ji Zhongqiu and Wang Zhaoyang walked in facing the snow together,

As soon as he came in, he patted the snow on his body and called Xiaohua: "Sister Xiaohua, pour me a cup of hot water to warm up."

Ling Xiaohua's eyes widened: "I owe you, I won't pay!"

Ling Yue didn't say anything, Ling Xiaohua didn't go to pour water, so she had to pour a glass of water for Ji Zhongqiu, and then handed a glass to Wang Zhaoyang.

"It's snowing so much, the road is not easy to walk."

The implication is that she understands if you don't come here today.

Anyway, she has a debt here, and he can't deny it even if he wants to.

"I know." Ji Zhongqiu took the water and sat down by the stove, "Where do I go for dinner? You know, since I opened the shop, I never cook at night."

At night, no one helps him cook. At noon, he eats with the employees. The employees take turns to cook, and he is only responsible for buying vegetables.

"You are really a profiteer," Ling Xiaohua gave him a sideways glance, "Remember to pay my sister for food."

Ji Zhongqiu took a sip of water, "Okay, but I have a request."

Ling Xiaohua didn't understand, so she asked, "What request?"

"You have to cook every day's meals."

Ling Xiaohua was furious: "Get lost! Love to eat or not!"

"Okay, Xiaohua, it's getting late, you can cook."

When Ling Yue spoke, Ling Xiaohua gave Ji Zhongqiu a look, and obediently went to the backyard. Before leaving, she didn't forget to make a face at Ji Zhongqiu: "Stinky boy, I won't cook your meal tonight."

Ji Zhongqiu didn't care, just hehe and laughed.

When Xiao Hua went to the backyard, Ling Yue said to him: "Mid-Autumn Festival, there is something I want to discuss with you."

Ji Zhongqiu held water and set fire: "Sister, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Ling Yue asked him, "Is your business going well today?"

Ji Zhongqiu shook his head: "It's not very good, I don't have 700 yuan yet."

The corner of Ling Yue's mouth twitched, well, if it wasn't for his own participation in that shop, she really wanted to find a piece of tofu to kill her.

She only sold it for more than 100 yuan after guarding for a day, and the other party sold it for 700 yuan, which is not good.

"I only sold two sets of clothes today, more than 100 yuan."

Ji Zhongqiu was very calm: "Sister, don't worry too much. The weather is cold and the snow is so heavy that the big guys don't want to come out. It's fine if you can sell it for more than 100 yuan."

"I know, I just want to ask you, according to your current business, how long can you sell cotton clothes in your store?"

Ji Zhongqiu said: "I mainly sell cotton-padded clothes today. I only sold more than 30 cotton-padded clothes and about [-] pairs of cotton trousers. I didn't move much on other clothes."

Ling Yue nodded. Although she didn't go to his store, she had all the goods in his store. She made some calculations in her heart and said, "Then your business is not bad today. However, the cotton clothes on your side can only be sold at most. Will it last a week?"

Ji Zhongqiu nodded: "Yes, but the day after tomorrow is the weekend, I guess we can sell [-] or [-] more pieces."

Ling Yue opened the clothing store for three months. Except for the low and peak seasons, at first she thought that the daily business was not much different.

But after practice, she discovered such a rule.

As long as it is the weekend and students are on holiday, the business is better from Saturday afternoon onwards than from Monday to Friday.

This day and a half sells an average of 400 yuan more than other periods.

"Then let me tell you the truth. You see, the snow came too suddenly. I'm worried that the train to Zhushi will stop running. Do you think you have a better way?"

"Or, let's see if you can find a source of goods near Qingpu City?"

Ji Zhongqiu said: "Looking for a source of goods in Qingpu City? There are two garment factories in Qingpu City, the first factory and the second factory."

"The first factory is not doing well, and has not been able to pay wages for two months. The second factory is not much better. Although it can pay wages, it is still struggling on the verge of bankruptcy."

Ling Yue looked at him unexpectedly: "How do you know?"

Ji Zhongqiu said: "I have a brother, his father is the director of the second factory, he told me."

Ling Yue was very puzzled: "It shouldn't be, isn't it developing in this direction now, why can't they pay wages?"
