Chapter 38 New Boat Market
Could it be that he was running a boat with Uncle Qian again or something?
The last time Lu Huaian went there, Shen Ruyun was really worried and couldn't sleep well. She felt relieved after seeing that he came back safely.
If he was going to do those dangerous things again, she really didn't think it was necessary.
Isn’t it good to make money down-to-earth? They are not so short of money that they would risk their lives!
Lu Huaian thought for a while and smiled: "I haven't thought about it yet. I just think that reselling is actually quite profitable sometimes."
Sell?
"What is reselling?"
This was exactly what Lu Huaian was thinking about. He pondered for a moment: "Look, I bought my uncle's chestnuts before, and after reselling them, I made more than one yuan after traveling expenses. We sold steamed buns, and we only made more than one yuan in the morning."
Shen Ruyun calculated carefully and shook her head: "But my uncle has not always had chestnuts, and it was only the first time he bought them. He bought them so cheaply. If he wants more later, he will definitely not be able to pay this price, and you don't have it." After factoring in labor costs and so on, you still have to climb mountains."
"I'm just making an analogy." How could Lu Huaian go hiking and wading through rivers to sell chestnuts? He couldn't laugh or cry: "I don't want to think about it today. Let's go to bed first."
In the next few days, he began to deliberately give up his position to Shen Maoshi until he could completely withdraw.
Then I took Shen Ruyun to Xinhua Bookstore every day, rain or shine.
Shen Ruyun went to read a book, so Lu Huaian accompanied her and bought a newspaper.
He studied every day's newspapers carefully and missed every content.
Shen Ruyun was curious at first, but later she thought he was just going to accompany her, and felt a little sorry: "How about I go by myself, it'll be fine."
"Huh?" Lu Huaian was startled, then smiled: "No, it is useful for me to read the newspaper."
Yeah……
Shen Ruyun leaned over, lowered her eyes and whispered softly: "Xinzhou market is booming, self-employed..."
She paused and looked at Lu Huaian in confusion: "Do you want to open a store in the city?"
Now, I haven't learned to walk yet, so I want to run...
Lu Huaian shook his head and pointed to the words at the back: "Look at this."
Following the direction he pointed, Shen Ruyun continued reading: "The clothes in Xinzhou Market are very fashionable, including bell-bottom pants, carrot pants, bat shirts..."
"Yes, that's it."
Lu Huaian thought for a while and asked her: "Besides the state-owned shopping malls, are there any clothing stores in the county?"
It's a shame to call it a state-owned shopping mall. It sells clothes that even the grandparents on the street don't like to wear.
Many people would rather do it themselves than waste the money.
As for other clothing stores... Shen Ruyun thought about it carefully, and there really weren't any!
"You're thinking……"
Open a clothing store by yourself? But what about the supply? Where about the channels? Where about the funds?
Nothing!
The two looked at each other, and Lu Huaian looked into her shining eyes and nodded: "Yes, I want to resell the clothes!"
"..." Shen Ruyun was stunned for a while: "Don't you want to open your own shop?"
Realizing that she had misunderstood him, Lu Huaian shook his head decisively: "Of course not."
Opening a store these days, he has understood that money can be made by opening a store and doing business, but it is difficult and tiring.
"It seems that our business is doing well, but after deducting costs and labor, we actually don't make much money, and this still doesn't include rent."
After careful calculation, it is actually not very profitable.
After all, people still have reservations about the self-employed, as most of their income depends on the support of students.
"Well, our shop..."
"Of course the store will be open." Lu Huaian thought for a while and drew a line under artificial: "But not the three of us, but an appropriate reduction..."
Shen Ruyun said oh, and it made sense: "So you have been slowly letting go recently."
"yes."
Lu Huaian did not hide his intention from her, and said very directly: "What I want to do now is to go to the city, get some clothes and sell them in the county. I will make some money first, and I will see what happens next."
Anyway, the county is short of resources, so as long as they can get them back, it should be easy to take action.
"Then you also have to consider the color and style of the clothes." Shen Ruyun pondered and gave a small suggestion: "It is best to buy some fresh styles. The girl will definitely like it."
After two days of comprehensive consideration, Lu Huaian bought some newspapers and came to read them, and finally decided to take Shen Ruyun with him.
"You pick the styles. I also want to see their purchasing channels." Lu Huaian thought to himself, just relying on manpower to carry it back, there are not many people in the county, the demand will eventually be full, no one has that much Buying clothes every day with spare money is not.
He has little money, so he has to take one step at a time.
Shen Ruyun nodded seriously and took a notebook: "I also did the math. We now have a total of twenty-eight yuan. We have sold more these days. Let's go when we save thirty."
As for styles and quantities, she also divided them according to gender and age group.
Looking at the neat forms and the beautiful printed fonts, Lu Huaian was overjoyed: "You are so awesome."
With this thing, they basically don't have to think too much. They only need to choose the style according to the quantity when they arrive.
Shen Maoshi listened to their heated discussion and could only watch helplessly.
Realizing that he had not spoken, Lu Huaian raised his head: "Brother, do you think this is good?"
Hearing the question, Shen Maoshi straightened his back and smiled honestly: "I really don't understand this. If you ask me to make steamed buns, I can do it. I can't do this. The words you wrote look like ants to me." Climbing."
After hearing his words, Shen Ruyun and Lu Huaian both laughed.
"That won't work like this." Shen Ruyun smiled and propped her chin up: "How about I take the time to teach you how to write. At least you have to learn your name."
Lu Huaian nodded and felt that this method was feasible: "Just teach one or two words every day, and you also need to learn a little arithmetic. Then you won't know if others pay more or less."
Knowing this is very important, although Shen Maoshi feels that life is difficult, he does not dare to refuse.
Their trip is scheduled for three days later.
In the past two days, Shen Maoshi could only bite the bullet and learn to write stroke by stroke.
In fact, in his opinion, these characters are similar to the talismans drawn by the immortals in the mountains, they are all curved.
Daxian is the barefoot doctor in their mountain. If the disease can be cured, he will give some medicine. If the disease cannot be cured, he will draw a talisman and burn it into ashes and soak it in water, which is called "painting water" for short.
He was thinking this in his mind and accidentally muttered something. Shen Ruyun laughed half to death.
"Well then, if you learn Chinese calligraphy, you can take over from Daxian's class when you return home."
Seeing him like this, Lu Huaian doubted that he could learn at all.
Fortunately, Shen Maoshi was very good at learning mathematics, and he could barely calculate 12=3.
Lu Huaian looked at him writing two questions and thought it looked like that. He couldn't help but admired: "It seems that people in your family are quite sensitive to numbers."
"That's for sure." Shen Maoshi calculated hard without raising his head: "It doesn't matter anything else, we must not give less money!"
They all came from poverty, how important money is! Besides, they all paid for it!
As expected of Shen Maoshi, this idea is really real.
Lu Huaian packed his luggage and urged him to go to bed: "You have to get up early tomorrow, so go to bed early."
"okay."
When she woke up early the next morning, Shen Maoshi was busy working alone.
Lu Huaian took Shen Ruyun to catch the bus and followed the route Uncle Qian told him.
Chapter completed!
