Chapter 129 Help
"Brother Yang, this thief Sun..." Seeing Sun Yaoliang leaving, the soldier couldn't help but speak, but he was stopped by Luo Yang's gaze before he could finish his words.
"We'll talk about it later." Luo Yang said in an unquestionable tone: "Did you hear what I said just now? Everyone should follow Sun Yaoliang's instructions. Xiao Qiao, this is temporarily handed over to you. Pay attention to it and don't make any mistakes."
"Brother Yang, don't worry." Xiao Qiao took the registration book handed over by Luo Yang without saying a word.
Xiao Qiao's attitude eased Luo Yang's expression. He continued to ask, "By the way, Sun Yaoliang just mentioned finding a lesbian to come to the store. I think he has some truth in that. Can you guys think about it? Do you have anyone suitable to recommend?"
"This..." Everyone looked at each other.
"Brother Yang, where can I find her at this time? You can't ask my mom to come, right? If she knew I asked her to do this, she would beat me with a broom." The soldier scratched his head and looked bitter. The same was true for Junzi and Xiao Qiao. If they were asked to find a few buddies, it might be okay, but it would be difficult for them to find female comrades.
"You are stupid! Can't you ask around among relatives and friends and see if there is anyone suitable?" Luo Yang felt a little disappointed when he saw them like this.
"Okay, Brother Yang, don't be anxious. This matter can't be rushed. We have to find it slowly. Besides, the person we find has to be reliable, don't you think?"
"Okay, that's it. I have to go back to school . I'll leave this place to you. I'll come over after school in the afternoon." Luo Yang said and waved his hand. The three of them sent Luo Yang out. Luo Yang got on his bike and gave them a few more instructions before leaving.
On the way back to school, Luo Yang was still thinking about what Sun Yaoliang said. He had to admit that Sun Yaoliang was organized and methodical. Opening a store was completely different from their original black market experience. Many of their previous experiences were not suitable now.
Let's talk about receiving the goods today. If Sun Yaoliang hadn't been there, they would have been completely in the dark when they arrived at the train station. Although Luo Yang believed that they would definitely receive the goods in the end, the process would not be as smooth as today.
In addition, Sun Yaoliang's suggestions on inbound and outbound storage, acceptance, record keeping, inventory, daily clearing, and the introduction of fitting rooms and finding a female comrade to work in the store were all correct. After all, Luo Yang was a college student, and his vision and understanding far exceeded those of Dabing and Junzi, and he had the ability to distinguish good from bad, but he had to admit that Dabing and Junzi were used to working as vagrants, so it was normal for them to have some resistance to Sun Yaoliang's suggestions, so he had to pay more attention and keep an eye on them these days.
When thinking of Sun Yaoliang's suggestion to find a female comrade before he left, Luo Yang didn't know why the first thing he thought of was Li Xiaoyun. Maybe it was because of Li Xiaoyun's straightforwardness and boldness, plus her little mouth that snapped like a machine gun, Luo Yang's subconscious reaction was that it would be appropriate if he could get Li Xiaoyun to help.
This strange thought flashed through Luo Yang's mind, and even he himself didn't know how this thought came up. He laughed at himself. Ask Li Xiaoyun for help? Are you kidding? How is this possible? He really thought too much and actually thought about this.
Shaking his head and putting this strange thought behind him, Luo Yang pedaled his bike faster and rushed to school.
The morning passed quickly and it was lunch time in the blink of an eye.
"Yuanchao, together?" Holding the lunch box, Luo Yang walked straight to Song Yuanchao and asked.
"Let's go together!" Song Yuanchao of course knew why Luo Yang was looking for him. Sun Yaoliang had reported to Song Yuanchao about receiving the goods today after he came back.
"The stuff has arrived and should be on sale in the store now, but we won't know how it's selling until later." Luo Yang said to Song Yuanchao on the way to the cafeteria.
Song Yuanchao nodded and said, "Let's sell it for a few days first. You don't have to rush to sell it when your store just started. Also, pay attention to the next thing."
"What's up?"
"Good wine needs to be hidden in a remote alley. When doing business, don't trust the so-called word of mouth. Sometimes necessary promotional methods are still necessary. Oh, you didn't make any arrangements for this, did you?"
Hearing this, Luo Yang frowned slightly. This was indeed something he had not thought of before.
He has always felt that if he finds the right goods, business will naturally come to him. But now Song Yuanchao suddenly said this, which made Luo Yang, who was in a good mood today, feel a little uneasy.
After thinking for a while, Luo Yang said to Song Yuanchao: "I really haven't thought about this. Yuanchao, can you help me again?"
Song Yuanchao tilted his head and looked at Luo Yang without saying anything. Luo Yang hesitated for a moment before saying, "Can you go to the store after class this afternoon and help me see how to do it? Is that okay?"
"Okay!" Luo Yang originally thought that Song Yuanchao would be pretentious, but who would have thought that Song Yuanchao would agree so readily: "There is only one class this afternoon. I'll go with you after class. I really need to take a look at the new products in the store. If the products sell well, the payment can be settled earlier, and I can also have an explanation to Shanghai."
Song Yuanchao's words made Luo Yang feel relieved immediately, and a smile appeared on his face: "Then it's settled, let's go together after class?"
"Okay!" Song Yuanchao nodded with a smile. At this time, he saw Lin Yan waiting for him at the cafeteria door from afar. He said to Luo Yang that he would go first, left Luo Yang and walked quickly towards Lin Yan. When they met, they smiled at each other. Song Yuanchao took Lin Yan's lunch box in his hand tacitly, and they went into the cafeteria together while talking and laughing.
Looking at the intimate behavior of Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan, Luo Yang felt a little jealous for some reason.
After a big class in the afternoon, Luo Yang couldn't wait to find Song Yuanchao and Sun Yaoliang, and then the three of them rode their bikes out of the campus and headed straight towards Dazhalan.
We arrived at Dashilan around three in the afternoon. This was a time when there were fewer people in Dashilan, but if we waited for another hour or so, the crowds would gradually increase.
Song Yuanchao had been to Luo Yang's store before, that was the time he met Luo Yang in Dashilan, but at that time the store looked rather old. Now standing in front of the store, Song Yuanchao discovered that Luo Yang had specially repainted the store after renting it, and from the appearance it looked much better than the first time.
The store door was open, but there were not many customers in the store, which was not surprising, after all, there were not many people coming and going at the moment.
Luo Yang took Song Yuanchao and the others into the store. When the soldier who was dozing off behind the counter heard the sound, he suddenly looked up. When he saw Luo Yang coming, he put on a smile. But when he saw Sun Yaoliang who came with Luo Yang, his face suddenly darkened again. As for Song Yuanchao, he was simply ignored by the soldier.
"Brother Yang, you're here." The soldier walked out of the counter and greeted him.
"Let me introduce you. This is my buddy. This store belongs to him. I'm Zhang Wenbing. You can just call him Dabing. Dabing, this is my classmate Song Yuanchao. You can just call him Brother Song."
"Hello, soldier. Nice to meet you." Song Yuanchao smiled and extended his hand to the soldier. The soldier looked at Song Yuanchao and smiled as well: "Brother Song, right? You are Brother Yang's classmate, which means you are also my friend. Hello, hello..."
When facing Song Yuanchao, the soldier seemed very friendly. Sun Yaoliang, who was standing aside, couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw this. This guy was also looking down on people. Both he and Song Yuanchao were classmates of Luo Yang, but why did he dislike him?
"Where are Junzi and Xiaoqiao?"
Seeing that he had not seen the two of them , Luo Yang frowned slightly and asked.
"They are in the warehouse, Junzi! Xiaoqiao! Brother Yang is here!" said the soldier, and then he shouted at the locked room next to him. As soon as he finished speaking, Junzi and Xiaoqiao opened the door and came out.
"Brother Yang!"
"Come here, let me introduce you." Luo Yang greeted Song Yuanchao, "I won't introduce Xiao Qiao, you have met each other before. This is Zheng Jun, you can call him Junzi. Junzi, this is my classmate Song Yuanchao, you can just call him Brother Song."
"Brother Song..."
"Hello, Junzi , nice to meet you. And Xiaoqiao, I haven't seen you for a while."
Song Yuanchao shook hands with them one by one with a smile, and then looked at the exhibits in the store with great interest.
Luo Yang and his team rearranged the store, placing the newly arrived fake collars in the most conspicuous places, while other ordinary goods were placed in other locations.
The 3,000 fake collars sent this time include 20 styles, including 8 for men and 12 for women, 150 samples of each style, and three to four sizes for each style, basically covering all commonly used sizes.
Among the 8 men's styles, 4 are white, 2 are light blue, and 2 are plaid, with different fabrics and textile patterns. In addition, 3 have small square collars and 5 have large square collars, which are all very common styles.
The 12 styles for women are much brighter, including 6 with small round necklines, 3 with small square necklines, and 3 with large square necklines. The colors include white, pink, and prints. Some of them have edges on the collars (similar to lace) and are embellished with a few small metal pieces or plastic beads, which look very beautiful.
The prices marked on the men's models range from 3 yuan to 3.2 yuan, while the prices on the women's models are slightly higher, ranging from 3.5 yuan to 4 yuan. The two most beautiful models are marked at 4.2 yuan, which is one yuan more expensive than the highest price for men.
"Who set this price?" Song Yuanchao asked casually after taking a look at the price.
"Yaoliang and I decided on this together." Luo Yang said on the side.
Song Yuanchao nodded slightly. The price was acceptable. It was slightly higher than that in Shanghai, but it was not unacceptable. After all, there were travel expenses and postage costs to bring one from Shanghai. In addition, although it was the first time Song Yuanchao had seen these styles, he had to admit that Li Daqi had put a lot of effort into them. Coupled with Aunt Dong's supervision, these fake collars were very good in terms of material selection and style.
"How's business?" Song Yuanchao asked. Luo Yang came with them, so of course he didn't know the situation. Xiao Qiao at the side quickly handed the registration book in his hand to Song Yuanchao: "Brother Song, we just sorted it out this morning, and just started selling at noon. The sales are pretty good. From 11 to 2 o'clock, we sold 9 sets in three hours. Take a look, this is the registration."
Song Yuanchao did not say anything, but directly took the registration book and started to look through it. His action puzzled the soldiers and the military officer beside him. They could not help but look at each other: "Who is this guy? He is so arrogant when he comes here? He seems to be the boss here? Why is Brother Yang not saying anything? Instead, he acts as if it is a matter of course. Even Sun Yaoliang, who has always disliked him, is now sticking behind Song Yuanchao like a lackey?"
