Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

Chapter 36: Weaving Fishing Nets

June 22, seven o'clock in the morning.

Zhang Li came to the wholesale market to stock up.

When the boss called someone to pick up the goods from the warehouse, he started chatting with Zhang Li. As they chatted, they talked about Sun Wanhui.

"Hey, I remember that you and Sun Wanhui live on the same street, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Zhang Li asked doubtfully.

"Has the business in her store been particularly good recently?" the boss asked tentatively, "Did business pick up during the summer vacation?"

"What are you doing? It's only about ten pieces a day." Zhang Li curled her lips and said disdainfully, "There are many women's clothing stores around, and hers is not inferior."

"That's weird..." The boss muttered, suddenly confused.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Li felt strange why the boss suddenly asked like this.

"Then you said she comes to replenish goods every two or three days, and each time it's one or two hundred sets. It's unreasonable." The boss fell into deep thought, but was puzzled. "This week she at least got from me.

Nearly 500 sets of clothes have been purchased, can she sell them all?"

"Five hundred sets?!" Zhang Li was shocked and didn't react for a moment. She thought the boss had made a mistake, "Fifty sets, how could there be five hundred sets?"

She still doesn’t know about Sun Wanhui’s store?

It’s good to be able to maintain sales of more than a dozen pieces of clothing every day. Occasionally, when business is good, you can sell 20 pieces of clothing, but you may not be able to sell even 100 pieces of clothing in a week.

In contrast, the business of Zhang Li's children's clothing store has indeed been booming recently. Apart from her, there is another store selling children's clothing nearby. There is little competition pressure and great demand from parents.

One to two hundred sets of new clothes are sold every week.

But what is going on with Sun Wanhui?

Buying 500 sets of clothes a week?

Are you planning to stock up for the summer vacation?

So it’s too early to stock up, right?

Although if you purchase goods when business is good, the price will be a little too high, but if you purchase too many goods in advance and the business fails to meet expectations by then, and you lose this batch of goods, you will suffer a heavy loss.

For those who run a clothing business like theirs, slow-moving inventory is always a fatal problem.

Even if her business is good now, she doesn't dare to buy too many goods at once. She can only come every four or five days, which is safer.

It also makes it easier for her to adjust the direction in time.

Zhang Li wouldn't have believed Sun Wanhui's strategy of purchasing five hundred sets of clothes a week if it hadn't come from her boss.

Is this woman crazy?

Or are you just being stimulated, thinking that Zhang Li's business is so good, so you think your store's business can be as good as hers during the summer?

Thinking of this, Zhang Li couldn't help but sneer.

I really don’t know what Sun Wanhui is thinking. Are you dizzy from the summer heat?

On the other side, Xu Xing got up early in the morning, washed his face and brushed his teeth, drank a bowl of porridge at home, and then went out.

Sun Wanhui had already gone to work in the store, and Xu Jian was also a very busy person. It was common for him to sleep in the factory. After the holidays, no one at home could take care of Xu Xing.

In the past, Xu Niannian was the only one who could keep an eye on him here. When Xu Xing was not at home, he went to Sun Wanhui to report him.

But now that Xu Niannian is pinned down in the supermarket by his aunt, there is no way to disturb Xu Xing.

Walking out of the gate of the community, Xu Xing turned around and walked into the Hualian Supermarket at his aunt's home. At a glance, he saw Xu Niannian dozing off in front of the checkout counter with his chin propped up.

Today, Xu Niannian is still dressed simply, with a white T-shirt lining her body without any fluctuation. In her current posture, half-bent in front of the table, the T-shirt on her chest looks quite empty.

Xu Xing walked into the supermarket and took some snacks as usual. After writing them down in his account, he glanced at the sleepy Xu Niannian, patted the table and said, "Hey, be serious, what if someone skips the order?"

"

"Damn! Are you bothered?" Xu Niannian said angrily after being woken up by him rudely, "I'm so sleepy."

"What did you do last night? Secretly playing on the computer again?"

"Who is playing on the computer?" Xu Niannian pouted, "I chatted with my best friend until midnight, and I was pulled up early in the morning to work as a volunteer. I can't sleep a little longer?"

"How pitiful." Xu Xing shook his head in sympathy, leaned over and reached out, passed through the gap between Xu Niannian's body and the cashier, reached under the cashier, and took out a plastic bag.

Xu Niannian was startled by his actions, and quickly backed away a little. He couldn't help but said speechlessly: "How about I help you get it? I thought you had some evil thoughts about your sister."

"What kind of rubbish are you holding in your mind?" Xu Xing rolled his eyes at her, "How many times have you helped me carry a bag in the past few days? You have the nerve to say that you have no service spirit at all. Wait until I complain to my aunt."

"Go away! Then you pay first." Xu Niannian was so angry that she almost jumped up to the cashier and kicked him.

Xu Xing was too lazy to argue with her, and was still thinking about how to hook Xu Niannian, so he changed the subject and asked: "Hey, I remember you said before that you would like to find a part-time job if you have the chance?"

"What are you doing?" Xu Niannian glanced at him, "It's not that easy to find a part-time job. I can't do anything like serving dishes. It has to be related to my major to make sense."

"Design, I know." Xu Xing nodded and continued, "This is not me talking to my classmate. He said that his distant cousin had just graduated recently and joined a game studio. She seemed to be looking for art outsourcing."

"Art outsourcing?" Xu Niannian was stunned, and his mind was suddenly spinning.

"Yes, if I didn't think about your design studies, you should be able to draw, right? It has to be the kind that uses a computer to draw." Xu Xing said casually, pretending to be careless.

"I'm sure I can. This is what the school teaches!" Xu Niannian became excited and asked quickly, "What exactly is it about painting?"

Xu Niannian is bored to death every day now. She can't go out to play with her classmates, nor can she lie around at home. She has to help her mother run the supermarket.

But if there is a valid reason, such as finding a part-time job that utilizes professional development, then her mother will not really force her to stay in the supermarket.

"How did I know that?" Xu Xing curled his lips when he saw this, and was not in a hurry to close the net. He just said, "Just a casual chat, I think her cousin's job is quite interesting and she can play games."

"Oh, that's it..." Xu Niannian looked a little disappointed.

"But I can ask for you." Xu Xing said, "I'm just going to find that classmate of mine. If possible, I recommend you to give it a try."

"Really?" Xu Niannian asked in surprise, like he was on a roller coaster, "Then ask for me. I can provide some information, as well as my works in school. I will send them to you when I get home at noon!"

"Do you want to be so serious?" Xu Xing pretended to be shocked by her formation.

"I definitely want it, what do you know?" Xu Niannian suddenly became serious, "When someone opens a studio and recruits people, even if it is outsourcing, it depends on the strength of the other party. I don't have any qualifications, so I must have a correct attitude.

"

"Okay, then I'll go and ask." Xu Xing nodded reluctantly, "But I can't guarantee that you can pass, and it's been two days. I don't know if they have found the right person."

"It's okay. If you really miss it, there's nothing you can do about it." Xu Niannian waved his hand.

"OK." Xu Xing packed some snacks, picked up the bag and walked out of the supermarket, "I'll give you news in the afternoon or evening."

After leaving the supermarket, Xu Xing walked towards the Internet cafe, reviewed his performance and Xu Niannian's reaction, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

very good.

The fishing net has been put down, let's see if Xu Niannian will really take the bait.
