Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"I'm sorry." Xiang Nan said quickly.

"It's okay. My mother died when I was ten years old. I'm used to it." Luo Yuzhu said as he rubbed his eyes.

"Do you want to use your mother's former colleague to help you smooth out your socks?" Xiang Nan asked again knowingly.

"Shunneng came out with a few pairs. I'm going to ask her for help and introduce a new way." Luo Yuzhu waved her hands and said, "I know that when the drivers in the factory deliver goods, in order to prevent the goods from being lost on the road, they often bring an extra pair. Pack. I’m going to buy it from him. One pack is one hundred pairs, two packs is two hundred pairs.”

Xiang Nan suddenly realized, "Okay, you really dare to think about it, the road is really wild."

"Isn't that what you said? The bold ones will be starved to death and the timid ones will be starved to death." Luo Yuzhu explained, "How can I make money if I don't do this?"

"That makes sense." Xiang Nan nodded, "I'm willing to cut myself off, and I dare to pull the emperor down. He's so poor that he's about to starve to death, but he can still manage so much."

"However, I have money for a meal, but I don't have money for buying goods. When the time comes, you will have to pay for the goods." Luo Yuzhu said in a dilemma.

"No problem." Xiang Nan nodded, "I'll also help you pay for the meal. Then, when the socks are sold, we can calculate the general ledger."

"No, I will pay for the meal." Luo Yuzhu insisted, "Aunt Wang is my mother's former colleague and also my elder. It is my duty to treat her to dinner, and it cannot be counted. Moreover, I will pay for the meal." I can still afford it, but I can’t ask you to pay the full amount.”

Xiang Nan couldn't help but respect her when he heard what she said.

He knew that Luo Yuzhu had little money and even had to rely on begging to survive. It is such a person with such backbone and principles that is really admirable.

In comparison, many girls in later generations have serious double standards. Men buy cars, buy houses, pay betrothal gifts, and give gifts on Valentine's Day, Chinese Valentine's Day, Goddess' Day, and other festivals. If they spend less, they will be criticized. But when they were asked to give gifts to boys, they called the boys unworthy.

In comparison, Luo Yuzhu really moved Xiang Nan.

…

At noon, Luo Yuzhu waited for Aunt Wang at the factory gate, and then took her to a snack bar outside the factory.

Xiang Nan did not go along.

Because going through the back door is not honorable after all, so the more private the better. Luo Yuzhu and Aunt Wang are old friends after all, and there is a trust between them. If Xiang Nan was added as an outsider, it would be difficult to say anything that could have been said.

And completing this matter alone was also an exercise for Luo Yuzhu. If she could successfully navigate this road, she would not have to worry about having food to eat in the future.

Therefore, Xiang Nan did not get involved, but waited for news from a distance outside the snack bar.

About an hour later, Luo Yuzhu sent Aunt Wang out of the snack bar and then came to find Xiang Nan.

"How's it going? Is she willing to help?" Xiang Nan asked.

"Yes." Luo Yuzhu nodded, "Aunt Wang will help us make an appointment with the driver of the sock factory, and I will treat him to a meal tonight."

Xiang Nan was not surprised when he heard this.

Opening up trade routes has never been easy. If you don't put in some effort, why would anyone give you money?

"Then do you still have money on you? Let me treat you to something good tonight." Xiang Nan said, taking out a wad of money from his pocket.

Over the years, he often carried thousands of dollars on his person. Although in later generations, a thousand dollars was nothing, in the 1970s, it was definitely considered a huge sum of money.

"Put the money away, I still have money." Luo Yuzhu waved his hand.

"Take it first and buy them some gifts. It's not weird to give gifts to so many people." Xiang Nansai gave her twenty yuan and said. This money had considerable purchasing power at the time. It could buy a few bottles of good wine and a few chickens and ducks. , nothing to mention.

"Okay, I'll lend it to you, and I'll deduct it from my share later." Luo Yuzhu thought for a while, took the money and said.

Then she went to the grocery store and bought some gifts.

…

In the evening, under the recommendation of Aunt Wang, Luo Yuzhu met Master Huang, who was delivering goods from the sock factory.

Xiang Nan also did not participate this time, letting Luo Yuzhu go and succeed. Whether it succeeds or not depends on his own ability.

After about two hours, the meal finally came to an end.

After Luo Yuzhu sent Aunt Wang and Master Huang away, she came to Xiang Nan happily and said, "Master Chen, it's done!"

"Really? How did you say that?" Xiang Nan asked quickly.

"Master Huang will deliver the goods to Hujiang tomorrow. He promised me that he would leave me a pack." Luo Yuzhu explained, "A pack of one hundred pieces, one piece for two."

"Well, now a pair of nylon socks can be sold for two and a half yuan, so there is still a profit of one and two yuan." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "This business is a good one."

"I'm going to contact a few more people, preferably from the sales department. It should be cheaper to get the goods from them." Luo Yuzhu said again, "One piece costs $2, and the price is still a bit high."

A pair of nylon socks now costs two and a half yuan in the store. They can't have the same price as the store, they have to be a few cents cheaper.

As a result, their profit from a pair of socks is only about one yuan. If it's half and half, it's only a few cents. And the risks they take are very high. If they are caught or their socks are detained, the losses will be huge.

Therefore, she wanted to contact as many people as possible from several sock factories, preferably from the sales department, so that she could keep the price as low as possible and ensure her own profits.

Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to go through all the hard work and not earn much.

"Well, you're right to think so. Don't put all your eggs in the same basket." Xiang Nan agreed.

The most taboo thing in doing business is to have a single purchase channel. Once the purchase channel is cut off, the business route will also be abolished. Therefore, it is necessary to expand more purchase channels.

"Let's go rest first and pick up the goods at the corner here tomorrow morning." Luo Yuzhu said again.

Xiang Nan nodded.

…

The two of them then found a nearby forest and stayed low and leeward for the night.

The reason why I didn’t stay in a hotel was because at that time, staying in a hotel required a letter of introduction from the public. The letter of introduction had to have an official seal, which meant that I was on a business trip. Otherwise, I would not be accommodated.

Second, it costs one yuan to stay in a small hotel for one night, which is a bit unaffordable for small business owners like them.

Therefore, people often choose to stay overnight under bridges, in the woods, in underground houses, or in dilapidated houses. For example, there is a station where you can take a rest at Knocking Tang Gang, which is pretty good.

Of course it doesn't matter where Xiang Nan spends the night, he can use a rope as a bed. But poor Luo Yuzhu, a girl, sleeps in the wild all year round.

Because of this, she suffered from severe rheumatism and her legs often suffered from severe pain. Even when he was sixty years old, he had to use a wheelchair.

So Xiang Nan specially took off his coat and put it under Luo Yuzhu. It will be more or less comfortable to sleep like this.

Luo Yuzhu saw Xiang Nan's actions and was naturally very grateful.
