Siheyuan: If I marry Qin Huairu, I will become stronger by showing off.

Chapter 396: A woman with eight million dollars to spend, the trend is coming!
"Hmm~"

A lazy hum suddenly sounded in the silent room.

A figure turned over on the spacious bed, and the quilt slipped off, revealing a beautiful back with a rosy glow and flawless whiteness.

Viewed from the back, the curves are exquisite, round and beautiful.

"Well……"

"call……"

Wu Youde glanced sideways and chuckled, "Awake?"

"Hmm~"

"But I'm still very sleepy and very tired. I feel like my whole body is falling apart..."

Looking at the pretty face in front of me, and then looking at the lingering spring love in her eyes, and her pouty red lips.

Wu Youde suddenly felt a surge of joy in his heart, and a feeling of great satisfaction and pride!

Hua Fei!
So this is what it feels like to be a concubine...

how to say?

It can be salty or sweet, flexible, smooth but not greasy, rich but not fatty.

It seems to be a bottomless pit full of magic, which makes people unable to help but sink into it, and they don’t want to leave and can’t extricate themselves!
No wonder Yongzheng was so obsessed with Concubine Hua. There must be a reason.

Wu Youde pinched the pouting plump red lips with his fingers, twisted them gently, and said with a smile: "Now you have tasted the bitterness, right? You can't blame me for not being gentle with women...

Tell me, why do you like to compete with Deng'er so much?

He wanted to outdo her in everything, and he didn't let this go...

You are so good! "

"Hmph~~"

Qiao Yue put her arms around his neck, arched her body into his arms, and pressed herself against him.

All the great principles have been squashed.

This was not the end. She raised her right leg and straddled Wu Youde's legs, pressing him down.

Qiao Yue pouted and said proudly: "I will beat her. If she can last four hours, I can last five hours.

If she can last five hours, I can last six.

Anyway, I just want to be better than her!"

Wu Youde was amused and joked, "Why don't you stay asleep? If you fall asleep, then this doesn't count as time, right?"

Qiao Yue opened her eyes wide and snorted, "Why doesn't it count? I may be asleep, but haven't I been holding on the whole time?

I'm not lazy...

We have to calculate it, we definitely have to calculate it!"

Wu Youde said happily: "Why do you like to compete with Deng'er so much? She doesn't even compete with you, but you want to surpass her in everything."

Qiao Yue rolled her eyes and said angrily, "Huh~ Then who told you not to eat me first? I've been waiting for you for several months, but she got there first!

Humph! I just can’t accept it! "

Wu Youde laughed, playing with the great truth in his hands, thought for a while and said: "Deng'er grew up in the village, doing farm work every day, hoeing the fields, weeding, harvesting wheat...

These are all physical jobs.

She has been working since she was a child, so she is naturally strong and has better physical fitness than you.

It's normal that you can't compare to her."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yue refused to give in. She snorted, "I don't believe it. Anyway, I am better than her. She took four hours and I took five hours.

It also counts when I’m asleep, it can’t be ignored!

I have been holding on, why doesn’t it count? "

Wu Youde was helpless. This woman's desire to win was too strong. He didn't know what Deng'er had done to her in Maixiang Village, or how much of a shadow it had cast on her.

This is why she is so unwilling to admit defeat in such matters.

"Good good!"

Wu Youde nodded and said with a smile: "Then now this referee officially declares that Miss Qiao Yue is more powerful and has a stronger endurance!

Deng'er is far inferior to Miss Qiao Yue!"

"Hehehe...That's how it is~~" Qiao Yue was happy and smiled.

Wu Youde looked at the sky outside, which was gloomy and foggy. He thought it was another foggy day, and he patted Qiao Yue's butt.

"Get up? I guess Deng Er has heated up the breakfast several times."

"Hmm~"

Qiao Yue twisted her body and said tenderly: "Wait a little longer, I still want to hug you~~"

"Eh? Brother Wu, why is it so magical?"

Wu Youde was stunned and asked in confusion: "What's so magical?"

“That’s it…”

Qiao Yue smiled and said, "Yesterday it was still like that..."

Someone has got hold of the evidence.

Wu Youde finally realized what he meant. He laughed and said, "It's getting cold. It's time to hibernate."

"……All right."

Qiao Yue smiled and said, "Then I will keep him warm at night."

Wu Youde nodded, "If you think you can do it, then you will be warm."

Qiao Yue nodded decisively, with a confident look on her face, "I can definitely do it!!"

"Okay, okay, you are the best..."

"That's~"

……

The two of them stayed in bed for a while.
It was not until Wu Youde's stomach growled with hunger that they got dressed and got out of bed. As soon as they got out of bed, Qiao Yue shivered and said with a bitter face that she was cold.

cold?
Wu Youde glanced at the window and saw a thin layer of mist on it.

Yes, it’s already November, late autumn, shouldn’t it be cold?
As he expected, when they went out, the food had already been set out in the living room, the lights were on and the floor was being mopped, and the tables and chairs were shiny, obviously having just been wiped.

See them come out,

Deng'er paused while mopping the floor, looked up and smiled at Wu Youde, "The food has just been heated up, eat it while it's hot."

This woman is the exact opposite of Qiao Yue; they are at the same extreme.

Qiao Yue likes to eat, drink, play, dress well and look good, but she is not good at working.

Where's the lamp?
She doesn't like to sit idle, and always wants to find something to do whether she has something to do or not. She is not so keen on eating, drinking and having fun.

Of course, she wouldn't refuse delicious food and drinks.

Wu Youde was very satisfied and liked such a hardworking woman.

For this reason, Qiao Yue consummated the marriage with her first.

Wu Youde nodded and said with a smile: "Take a break after mopping the floor. I have something to tell you."

Deng'er said "oh" and continued mopping the floor.

From beginning to end, she didn't even look at Qiao Yue, let alone talk to her.

This made Qiao Yue very unhappy. She wanted to show off, but she didn't expect Deng'er to ignore her...

Qiao Yue gritted her teeth, thinking that she must have done it on purpose!

Infuriating!
hateful!

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Qiao Yue stomped her feet, leaving a few more footprints on the floor at the door that had just been mopped clean. She smiled and winked at the light, then turned around with satisfaction and went out to wash up.

Wu Youde smiled and followed him out.

……

After breakfast,

Wu Youde said, "Deng'er, Yueyue, the courtyard over at Nanluoguxiang has been renovated. There are many houses now. Do you want to live there?"

Hearing this,

Qiao Yue's eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "Really? The decoration is finished so quickly, Brother Wu, can I really move in?"

Deng'er also looked at Wu Youde with some joy in her eyes.

Is this fast?
It’s been three months in a flash.

It's just a yard, with a dozen people working, so the efficiency is naturally very high.

In fact, the house in the backyard had already been decorated, and it had been completed a month and a half ago, but Wu Youde wanted to ventilate it and get rid of the smell, so it was delayed until now.

Wu Youde smiled and said, "Of course we can move over. We are all family. Deng'er, do you want to move over?"

Deng'er nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "Yes!"

Of course I did. Who doesn’t want to live with their man?
Even if I can't sleep in the same room with him every day, it might be good to see him and talk to him every day!

"Then let's pack up later and move there today," said Wu Youde.

Deng'er asked again, "What about Sister Huizhi and Sister Chunhua? Are they moving there too?"

Wu Youde nodded, "Move, everyone move over there! It's more lively for a family to live together!"

"Oh, okay." Deng'er laughed.

Since he had to go to the cafe to call Xu Huizhi and Mu Chunhua back to pack up and prepare to move, Wu Youde made an appointment with Qiao Yue and Deng'er to pick them up in the afternoon.

Tell them not to rush and just take their time packing.

After the deal was settled, Wu Youde left Yunju Hutong.

……

Chen's Silk Shop,
When Wu Youde arrived, Chen Xueru was still there and had not gone to the factory.

Seeing him coming, he handed over the account book in his hand.

Wu Youde sat down and took it and started reading...

"The profit margin has dropped again?" "Well, it dropped by 10% in the second quarter. I estimate that by the end of the fourth quarter, the profit margin will drop by another 10%, or even 15%!"

Wu Youde nodded.

Since June this year, products similar to "Guose Tianxiang" underwear have appeared on the market, but the number is small, there are only one or two brands.

But by July and August, there were more and more competing products...

For example, in a clothing store in Dashilan, Beijing, you can find underwear from ten different brands. What’s even more exaggerated is that the styles and designs of these ten brands are basically the same.

What's more,
There is also one that is exactly the same, a complete replica.

Only the brand name is different.

Of course, the price is also different.

The same underwear is sold for 29 yuan, 39 yuan, 49 yuan, and 19 yuan...

Competition is intensifying and becoming more and more competitive.

As the top domestic luxury underwear brand, Guosetianxiang has suffered a huge impact on its market and profits.

In this case,

Wu Youde and Chen Xueru had already anticipated this and responded immediately by lowering prices first. They did it proactively rather than passively.

Of course, there has to be a reason for the price reduction, and you can't reduce prices just for the sake of reducing prices.

Guose Tianxiang underwear bought space in newspapers across the country, announcing that in order to celebrate the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, it was launching a "buy one get one free" promotion.

The original price of underwear was 49 yuan, but now when you buy one, you can also choose another one of the same style but different color for free.

Directly give away the same style instead of a style of lower quality.

It is equivalent to a 50% discount, which makes the price half as cheap. This is very sincere!
As soon as this campaign was launched, other brands were dumbfounded, and they started cursing and shouting, "WTF!"

My underwear is only two dollars cheaper than yours, and you dare to cut the price in half?
Don't talk about martial arts!

How can I sell my underwear if you lower the price so much? Who will buy it?

My brand is a new one, no one has heard of it, and it is not well-known. In addition, the workmanship and materials of our underwear are not as good as yours.

Now you sell it cheaper than me!

This……

Damn it! !

In just one month, by September, the number of underwear brands on the market began to decline sharply!
If I go to the clothing store in Dashilan again, I can only find five underwear brands.

Even so, the boss complained that Guose Tianxiang was still the best-selling brand, while other brands of underwear were not selling well. After selling out the stock in his hands, he would not stock underwear of other brands.

Looking at the account book in my hand,
Wu Youde found that since launching the "buy one get one free" promotion, sales have increased significantly, not just doubled, almost tripled!
In June, July and August alone, the garment factory's shipments reached 1.5 million pieces!
An average of 500,000 pieces shipped per month!

This was simply unthinkable and horrifying in the past!
You know, from January to May this year, the total shipments for a full five months added up was only 700,000 pieces.

Just this made Wu Youde and Chen Xueru very happy...

Now, in just three months, the total sales volume is more than double that of the previous five months!
Incredible...

Looking at the account book, Wu Youde couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it turns out that the patriotism card is so easy to play and it is so powerful!

No wonder certain brands in later generations are always so fond of patriotism.

Wow, it really works!

If this momentum can be maintained, Wu Youde would be willing to let the profit margin drop by 30%, let alone 15%.

Everyone understands the principle of small profits but quick turnover.

As long as the sales volume is large enough, even if the profit is only a penny, it will still be very considerable!

Thinking of this,

Wu Youde asked: "How is the market now? What are the reactions of other brands?"

Chen Xueru said: "Besides us, there are nine other strong mainstream brands in the market, and the others are just small fish and shrimps. The main markets of these brands are concentrated in small counties in various places.

Those nine companies announced price cuts again last month, following our example and launching preferential promotions to celebrate the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and National Day.

Some are on sale, some are buy one get one free, and some are buy one get two free.

Although it looks fancy, the actual discounts are not as big as ours!"

Wu Youde asked, "The one with the biggest discount, how much difference does it have compared to ours?"

"About five yuan." said Chen Xueru.

Five yuan...

Wu Youde thought for a moment, then changed the subject and asked, "How is the cooperation with the Beijing Company going recently?"

"Some factories have signed contracts with the government one after another."

After a pause,
Chen Xueru added: "The street director went to the factory a few days ago and specifically talked to me about the benefits of the company's joint venture and wanted to understand my thoughts."

Wu Youde asked, "What did you say?"

Chen Xueru glanced at him and said angrily, "What else can I say? Of course I have to discuss it with the shareholders. I can't make the decision myself.

Anyway, I sent him away for now...

But to be honest, this trend is really getting stronger and stronger. I heard that even Donglaishun and Quanjude have started to contact the government, and they probably already have ideas in this regard.

Ai……

What do we do?"

Speaking of which,

Chen Xueru showed a sad look on her face. She said worriedly: "I don't know what the situation will be like next year. I went to a meeting a few days ago, and Shuntian Prefecture Governor, Deputy Mayor Le, and Chairman Lou gave speeches...

He talked a lot about the advantages of corporate cooperation and strongly called on everyone to liberate their minds and follow the trend...

Everyone is confused now. If this continues, I estimate that more and more people will be tempted.

You say, can we always stay out of trouble?"

Wu Youde laughed and asked, "Why do you insist on keeping to yourself?"

"what?"

Chen Xueru suddenly opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "You mean... we also want to join the company to cooperate?"

Wu Youde nodded slowly and said calmly: "The general trend is irreversible and beyond human control. You and I are both mortals, we can only follow the trend and embrace the general trend.

If you go against the current, it will be like trying to stop a chariot with your arms, and you will only end up dead and your family will be torn apart."

Chen Xueru's face turned pale with horror, and she murmured to herself, "Is it so serious?"

"That's right, it's not an exaggeration at all." Wu Youde said in a deep voice.

"..."

Chen Xueru was silent.

After a long while, she whispered again: "When will we let go?"

Wu Youde waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, there is at least one year left, it won't be too late until the end of next year."

Chen Xueru breathed a sigh of relief, was stunned for a moment, and then said unwillingly: "Do you really want to agree?"

Wu Youde glanced at her and said with a smile, "Are you unwilling?"

"of course!"

Chen Xueru rolled her eyes and said angrily, "Who can accept this? I worked hard and put all my energy into building this factory from scratch.

Now the development is pretty good, who is willing to share this with others? "

Wu Youde grabbed her hand, patted it gently, and comforted her, "I know, I understand, and I have seen your dedication to the factory.

But like I just said...

The trend is like this, no one can stop it! There is no way to stop it at all!
Think positively, there are many ways to make money, there is no need to worry about these trifles and lose your appetite..."

"Three melons and two dates???"

Chen Xueru had almost come to terms with what she had heard, but when she heard these four words, she suddenly became unhappy again.

She frowned and glared at Wu Youde, saying, "Do you know how much money the garment factory has now? You're talking about a small amount?"

Wu Youde asked curiously, "How much? I really forgot to ask you this. How much money do we have now?"

"Humph!!"

"Hmph!!"

Chen Xueru turned her face away, leaned back in the chair, crossed her legs again, and slowly extended her thumb and index finger.

Eight.

Wu Youde's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Eight million?"

"Hmm~~"

"...Okay, awesome, great!"

Wu Youde smacked his lips, cupped his hands, and said sincerely, "Boss Chen is awesome!"

Chen Xueru glanced at him sideways and said calmly, "It's not worth mentioning, just a few small things..."

"..."

Wu Youde was speechless.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, if you lose these eight million, I will return it to you a hundred times or a thousand times!"

Seeing Chen Xueru's surprised look, he smiled and said, "You don't believe it?"

Chen Xueru shook her head and then nodded.

"I believe it, but... I can't think of how to make it happen. A hundred times or a thousand times is too exaggerated..."

"Not an exaggeration, not at all."

Wu Youde waved his hand and said with a smile: "The world is very big, very big, much bigger than you think.

Although the domestic market is not small, it is nothing compared to the world! "

Looking at Chen Xueru's somewhat confused eyes,

Wu Youde said calmly: "It's time to make plans..."
