Rebirth 1986

Chapter 155 Credit
The newspaper office had already given the annual leave in advance. Tian Yun rejected her mother-in-law’s request to let her go back on the pretext that she still had work in the provincial capital, and waited for Anqing at home for several days. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"You haven't seen anyone during the day these days, and I'm embarrassed to disturb you at night. Can the business you mentioned be successful?" Tian Yun followed Anqing on the bus, and asked her in a low voice, asking Knowing that she lied to her mother-in-law about this matter, and her man has been hiding it all the time.

Seeing Tian Yun's nervous look, An Qing smiled and said, "If it doesn't work out, what am I going to do with you today? Why don't I take you to see the goods?"

"Going to see the goods now?" Tian Yun looked at the figure outside the car that kept swaying back and asked strangely: "Where are you going?"

"In the lotus, Bai Li Xing."

Tian Yun was surprised when he heard the words, "The person you mentioned to get the goods wouldn't be that Boss Zhao from last time?"

An Qing nodded and didn't say much, just told Tian Yun that he would find out when the meeting arrived. Tian Yun wanted to ask again, but seeing that the number of people in the car gradually increased, and even the aisle was crowded with people, he simply closed his voice and held back. Full of doubts, the bus staggered to Lianhuali. After getting off the bus, the two went straight to Bailihang.

Today's Bailihang is different from the past. The bright storefront decoration stands out from the whole lotus road. However, in just one day, several stores around have closed their doors. , but looking at the movement and the smell of smoke and dust wafting out of it, one could tell that it was probably under renovation. Anqing laughed a little, but didn't take it too seriously. After all, after the new year, Bailihang will redecorate Once, if these people just rely on imitation, they will never be able to catch up with Bailixing.

After the two arrived at the door, Tian Yun had long been dazzled by the appearance of Bailihang. An Qing greeted Xiao Xu and asked her to go to Zhao Jianguo, and she wandered around the store with Tian Yun. .

It was just after noon at this time, but there were still a few women in Bailihang who were trying on clothes, and they seemed very satisfied with the clothes. One of the women was carrying a child, both of whom were wearing parent-child outfits. Wearing a panda hat, it looks very fluffy and cute.

Tian Yun's eyes lit up when he saw the clothes, he pulled An Qing and said, "An Qing, look at the clothes, how about I buy them for my little treasure to wear?"

An Qing laughed, "If you like it, take a set. I've seen it before. There are many patterns of this kind of clothes."

"But their clothes must be very expensive. The clothes are still a complete set. I, I didn't bring any money today." Tian Yun said embarrassedly.

An Qing patted her, "It's okay, you choose the one you like, and I'll tell Big Brother Zhao to only take the children's set later, and you don't need to pay, just treat it as a gift from me to Xiaobao."

"Then how can it work?!" Tian Yun was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head, his head was like a rattle.

Although she hasn't known An Qing for a long time, in her eyes, An Qing has always been "simple", and he "leaves early and returns late" every day, and he has just come to the city from the countryside, so life is definitely not good. Fortunately, how could she ask An Qing to give the money.

An Qing didn't expect that her preference for plain handmade clothes would become plain in Tian Yun's eyes. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "It's not much money, and besides, I know Brother Zhao very well, so let him make a phone call when the time comes." It’s even cheaper to take it down.”

Tian Yun shook his head when he heard the words, "No matter how cheap it is, I am already very grateful to you if you can help me find a business. How can I let you buy things for Xiaobao for no reason, and even if Boss Zhao can give you a discount, this Clothes cost more than 20 or [-] yuan to buy, which is not cheap. You should save your money to live a good life. Although you are loose now, but if you have children later, the expenses will be high. You have to save Hold on."

Seeing Tian Yun's sincerity, An Qing couldn't help feeling warm in her heart. To her, this suit was really nothing, but Tian Yun was able to take care of her and made her very happy.

After Tian Yun persuaded An Qing, he was still a little greedy looking at the clothes on the child, hesitated for a while, and then whispered to An Qing: "Otherwise, let's not buy these clothes, and wait for my business to make money." I’ll buy it again, and then you can help me tell Boss Zhao that it’s cheaper.”

"Success." An Qing answered with a single gulp, making Tian Yun smile all over his face.

Just at this time, Xiao Xu went to call Zhao Jianguo over. As soon as Zhao Jianguo saw An Qing and was about to say hello, he saw a woman with short hair standing next to her, thinking that An Qing had said before that he didn't want people to know her relationship with Bailixing , so the eagerness on his face faded, and he walked over with a smile.

An Qing saw Zhao Jianguo at a glance, and greeted him with a smile, "Brother Zhao."

"An Qing, you are here, who is this?"

"Brother Zhao, have you forgotten? You guys met last time." An Qing smiled.

Tian Yun smiled openly and generously at Zhao Jianguo when she heard the words. She is a reporter, and she often meets strangers, and it is not the first time she has met Zhao Jianguo, so she greeted Zhao Jianguo without fear, "Boss Zhao, hello."

Zhao Jianguo sized Tian Yun carefully, and finally set his eyes on her skinny cheeks. Suddenly something came to mind, and he laughed and said, "It turned out to be you. I saw you last time in the hospital, and you still I didn't ask for your name."

"My surname is Tian, ​​Tian Yun." Tian Yun said with a smile.

"It turned out to be Ms. Tian." Zhao Jianguo nodded with a smile as he knew it, and then set his eyes on An Qing, "Why are you free to come here today? It's really rare."

"Look at what you said, if you let me come, when did I not come?" An Qing raised an eyebrow at Zhao Jianguo angrily, then pulled Tian Yun and said, "I came here today to ask you about the New Year pictures Yes, is the finished product out yet? Tian Yun wanted to set up a stall to earn some pocket money, so I brought her here to take care of the business."

"It turns out that this is the case. Part of it has already come out, but it is not stored here. It must not be wet. I will put it in another warehouse. How about I take you there to have a look?"

An Qing nodded, and followed Zhao Jianguo out of Bailixing together with Tian Yun.

The warehouse where the New Year pictures are placed is on West Street, which intersects with Lianhua Road. There are far fewer shops and people there than on Lianhua Road, but the environment is quieter, and there are many green cypresses planted around it. Even in winter, it is still lush and green. , the snow hanging on it is really beautiful, and the moat can be seen directly at the end of West Street. At this time, the river is already frozen, and without pollution, the river can be seen directly through the ice. Flowing water lines and gravel at the bottom.

The three of them walked around the moat for five or six minutes before turning into another road and walking forward for a while before stopping.

"This is the old store of Bailihang before. Later, after Bailihang moved to Lianhua Road, it was vacant. The interlayer was built on the ground floor and some materials that were waterproof and dehumidified were piled up. It was converted into a warehouse, where fabrics and so on were piled up. of."

Zhao Jianguo led the two into a very large house, and said, "This place is not afraid of the tide, and it is also close to the main road, so after the printing factory is done, I will directly ask them to deliver the goods here." Come on, let's go in first."

The three walked all the way inside. Zhao Jianguo opened one of the small warehouses, and saw neatly stacked New Year pictures inside, all of which were wrapped in thick kraft paper.

Zhao Jianguo went up to take out a package, cut the kraft paper on it, and the festive New Year pictures inside were revealed.

A set of those New Year pictures was simply wrapped with a piece of old white paper. An Qing casually took out a set, and said to Tian Yun, "Tian Yun, come and see how you like it."

Tian Yunzao couldn't wait any longer. Hearing this, he immediately leaned over, took the New Year picture from An Qing's hand and opened it.

Zhao Jianguo didn't know when to turn on the light in the warehouse. After the New Year painting was unfolded, it looked vivid under the light, and more importantly, Tian Yun's eyes were brightened by those faintly inlaid gold borders and some golden glitter. .

An Qing didn't expect that there would be something like golden fluorescent powder, so he looked at Zhao Jianguo strangely.

Zhao Jianguo suddenly smiled and said: "Don't look at me, this is made by a master craftsman in the printing factory. It seems to be some kind of copper and gold powder. He put it on other things at the time. I asked him to try to give it to me because it looked good. I did it on New Year pictures, but I didn’t expect the effect to be good, so I asked the factory to make a batch of gold powder ones, and of course the price is quite expensive.”

"If it's more expensive, it's more expensive. This one may cost a lot more." An Qing laughed.

Tian Yun's heart was already moved, and he looked at the one without copper and gold powder, and said to Anqing: "This thing is destined to sell for a good price, and it is much more exquisite than the New Year's couplets we usually see. Anqing, this is your Made it?"

An Qing nodded, there's no need to hide this from Tian Yun, anyway, after she plans to make it this year, next year it won't be exclusive, and it won't fetch a big price.

"I thought I would have nothing to do at home all day, so I fiddled with something to make some money, but Brother Zhao did most of the work, and I just followed along."

"Then how much does this cost? Surely it's not cheap?"

An Qing looked at Zhao Jianguo, motioned him to speak, Zhao Jianguo nodded, and took over the conversation, "Those ordinary cheap ones cost five yuan for a set, which includes a pair of couplets, four New Year pictures, and a small wall calendar. The ones with copper and gold powder are more expensive, and the contents are the same, but the price is seven yuan a set."

Tian Yun frowned upon hearing this, "It's so expensive."

"It's not expensive anymore. Think about it. You can buy a set for a few dollars. These things can be sold separately when you go out. The same cost is less than one yuan. Even if you have copper and gold powder, it is only a little more than one yuan. You sell it to others. When the price can be adjusted appropriately, it will not be expensive to sell couplets for two or three yuan, and some people will ask for New Year pictures for one yuan and five a piece, and those with copper and gold powder will be even more expensive. I don’t care about it, is it still expensive?”

Zhao Jianguo directly took out what Anqing told him before and told Tian Yun that Tian Yun was not stupid, and that he had more experience working in a newspaper office than ordinary housewives, so he knew that what Zhao Jianguo said was not an exaggeration. For others, just for her, if you see someone selling this kind of New Year couplets during the Chinese New Year, you will definitely be willing to spend a few yuan and ten yuan to buy a set. happy.

But now she only has a hundred or so yuan on hand, and her previous salary has long been given to her mother-in-law's family to take care of Xiaobao, so she can't get much goods at all.

Seeing Tian Yun's hesitation, An Qing asked strangely, "Tian Yun, what's wrong?"

"I only have 100 yuan on hand, and I sent all my previous wages to my mother-in-law..." Tian Yun said truthfully, but his face was still a bit arrogant. After all, Anqing gave her a way to make money, but she had no capital. No wonder.

An Qing laughed, "What's the matter, how about this, you can send me a note with Big Brother Zhao, get the goods for 500 yuan first, and then give us the money when they are sold out, Big Brother Zhao, what do you think? "

"No problem, I believe the people you brought, and 500 yuan is not much." Zhao Jianguo said boldly.

Tian Yun opened her mouth and her heart was blocked, and it hurt her to ask her to take out 100 yuan, but in the end, 500 yuan was not much in his mouth, and it almost caught up with her half-year salary. It actually strengthened her determination to make money.

However, the credit payment made her a little embarrassed. Anqing seemed to know what she was thinking, and took her hand and said, "Sister Tian Yun, don't feel bad. This year's painting just came out this year, and it has never been sold. Although we Everyone thinks it will be a big hit, but it’s not really popular after all, isn’t it? You should help us find the way. If someone asks where you got the goods, you can help recommend it. But don’t worry, Li Le Road Over there, we will only sell it to your family."

Tian Yun couldn't be more grateful for what An Qing said. She knew that An Qing's words were just to find a way for her. There was no need to find someone to scout the way for these things. Looking at An Qing's clear and smiling eyes, Tian Yun Yun was silent for a while before refusing, and said to An Qing, "Thank you, An Qing."

"Thank you, it's a shame to be so polite." An Qing waved his hand, "Since that's the case, let's take the goods back to Tongzilou today, so you don't have to run back and forth."

Tian Yun nodded, Zhao Jianguo did not hesitate, the three of them did some calculations, and the ones with copper and gold powder took 58 sets, and the ordinary ones took more, 500 sets, and the total was just [-] yuan, Tian Yun also Without hesitation, he issued an IOU to An Qing on the spot.

Zhao Jianguo offered to help Tian Yun send it back, but she refused all the time. Now that she has paid for the goods on credit, there is no reason for them to help deliver the goods.

An Qing and Zhao Jianguo didn't force it when they saw this, but they admired Tian Yun a little bit in their hearts. An Qing told Tian Yun that she still had something to stay here, and Tian Yun very consciously ran out to find a manpower tricycle. Move all the goods up and bring them home with the tricycle.

After waiting for Tian Yun to leave, An Qing and Zhao Jianguo went back to Bailihang together, discussing the profitability of Bailihang yesterday along the way.
