Chapter 132 Market completed, promotion started [3000]
Let’s put the matter of young models aside for now.
Lu Yang had originally planned to go to the factory in the afternoon after dinner. After all, he had been away for half a month and didn’t know what the current situation in the factory was.
As a result, he was blocked at the door again.
The person who came was Zhugan, no, Yin Zhuangzhuang.
"Dear brother, you are back, why didn't you tell me?"
"If my old man hadn't mentioned it during lunch, I would still be in the dark."
Yin Zhuangzhuang's face was full of resentment.
Lu Yang was puzzled. "Did you bury your head in the ground this morning? Or did you stay up all night without sleeping? You went to sleep this morning, otherwise you wouldn't know about such a big thing happening in the village? You didn't know about it even though I came back?"
Yin Zhuangzhuang blinked his eyes. "What happened? I haven't been home these few days. My brother-in-law has drafted me into the army. Hey, you don't know, their market has been completed and they are decorating it. They need to find someone to distribute flyers and put up slogans everywhere. Anyway, there are so many complicated things to do. My brother-in-law is just a small clerk, but he has been assigned so many tasks. The leader treats him like a beast of burden, but he has also drafted me in to treat him like a beast of burden. I am so tired that my waist still hurts now. Ouch, look, is there a bruise here?"
Lu Yang finally understood.
This kid hasn't been home for the past few days. He was taken to the county town by his fourth brother-in-law to do odd jobs in the completed free wholesale market.
Lu Yang's curiosity was also aroused.
We have already started distributing flyers and doing promotion. We don’t know whether the market will open earlier. The original plan was May 5st, and it’s only been a little over three months now.
Are there enough goods in your own factory?
Lu Yang has 21 stalls, and he does not plan to rent them out in the early stage because he cannot afford the rent now. He plans to wait until the market opens and let people witness the popularity of the market. Then he will rent out some of the more remote stalls in batches and only keep a few of the best stalls for himself.
That is to say, when opening, he had to fill all 21 stalls with goods.
The market requires that stalls cannot be left empty. The person who buys a stall must be operating it formally and have visible goods on the stall, rather than just buying it and leaving it empty. Once such a situation is discovered, a warning will be given for the first time. If the stall fails to change its behavior after repeated warnings and remains vacant for a long time, the market has the right to punish it. If the stall remains vacant for a long time after the punishment, the market has the right to take back the stall and resell it to others.
This is all written into the contract.
Lu Yang's practice was not against the rules, it could just be said that he was skirting the rules. The market only stipulated that stalls could not be left vacant, but there was no provision that people who bought multiple stalls could not sell the same goods in all the stalls.
21 stalls is a bit too many.
However, Lu Yang is confident that his clothing wholesale business will be a hit.
Others sell second-hand or third-hand goods.
I am a factory direct seller.
There are shipping costs for other people's goods, and the costs soar. Wholesalers have to make a profit, and manufacturers have to make a profit after shipping the goods. The cost of making clothes for manufacturers is probably even higher than yours.
This is an additional five chips.
I am a factory direct seller.
Others who do wholesale are very stingy and it is even a problem whether a stall can be fully stocked.
I filled up all 21 stalls.
We have as much goods as you want.
Whatever color you want, you can have it.
Whatever code you want, you can get it.
And it is guaranteed to be newer, more fashionable and more cutting-edge than their styles.
That's it?
Still can't sweep?
If the opening is not popular, Lu Yang will take off his head and perform a magic trick like Shen Gongbao, "Look at my head floating in the air, my head flying in the air, bah, this is impossible."
If this situation really happens, Lu Yang is prepared to spend a lot of money and lower the selling price to the lowest in the county, not wholesale, but retail.
The retail price of a set of summer short-sleeved shirts is seven or eight yuan, and the wholesale price is three or four yuan. Lu Yang plans to reduce the price to two yuan. As long as the people in the county come to join in the fun on the opening day, they can spend two yuan to buy a set of men's or women's short-sleeved shirts with the county's flyers, as if they were picking them up for free.
Lu Yang calculated it.
The raw materials and fabrics for the clothes made in my own factory cost about one yuan for a set, the labor cost for cutting a set of clothes is two cents, and the labor cost for sewing a set of clothes is 1 cents, which is a total of two cents. Add to that the management fee, water and electricity fees, booth fees, delivery and receiving fees, fuel costs for driving, and loss fees, and I estimate that all together, it's probably just one yuan and seventy or eighty cents at most.
Hey, you can still earn a few cents.
Even if all the 10 sets of clothes in the warehouse are used to hype up the brand, it will not be a loss to fire this first shot.
Of course, this is just the plan.
There are still many details to be considered in its implementation, and maybe by then you won’t even need to hype it up yourself, it will become popular.
There aren’t enough clothes to sell.
No.
We have to continue to accumulate inventory.
When Lu Yang came back from Shanghai this time, he brought back 12 yuan in cash. He spent 6000 yuan on buying a VCR, videotapes and other miscellaneous items, leaving him with 10000 yuan.
He plans to use all the money from now on to continue expanding production.
Well, it's time to expand the scope of recruiting sewing workers to the entire Fan Town, and even outside Fan Town. This time, Lu Yang plans to directly recruit 200 sewing workers.
Make every effort to prepare for the final sprint month.
correct.
I have to go to the city again to bring back more cloth.
After clarifying your thoughts.
When Lu Yang came to his senses, he found that Yin Zhuangzhuang had not left yet.
I couldn't help but ask curiously: "Why are you still standing here?"
"Why am I still standing here?"
Yin Zhuangzhuang was almost angry and cried, shouting in injustice: "Brother, dear brother, I must have something to ask you. Last time, no, last year, you promised to help me find out about the VCR market, second-hand sources, and videotapes. I'm waiting here. I've already picked a storefront and am just waiting for the rice to cook. Now you should give me an explanation, right?
Oh, by the way, didn’t you just say that something big happened in the village? What was it?"
Lu Yang glanced at him calmly and said, "It's nothing serious, it's just that Chun Saner was injured and is now hospitalized in the county hospital. You can go see him when you have time."
Lu Yang, Yin Zhuangzhuang, and Chun Saner were classmates in elementary and junior high school.
When it comes to having fun, Lu Yang is of course better than Ying Zhuangzhuang, and the two of them have a closer relationship.
But Yin Zhuangzhuang, apart from his close relationship with Lu Yang, can get along with everyone. No one has ever had a quarrel with him as long as they are classmates. This guy grew up around women and has four older sisters. He is also soft and effeminate. Chun Saner married early and his wife gave birth to three daughters for him. Others were afraid of their family because they were poor, loved to have children, and were the reincarnations of starving ghosts. Others were afraid of them being unlucky. But Yin Zhuangzhuang liked them very much and often went to Chun San's house to tease Chun San's three little daughters and often brought them some food.
I guess the old village party secretary was afraid that this kid would be impulsive, so he didn't dare to tell him that Chun San was in trouble. But now, the matter has been resolved, so there is no need to worry about it anymore.
"What, something happened to Chun Sange?"
"Brother Yang, tell me, which bastard hit him?"
"Poor people are so easy to bully. No, I have to stand up for him."
Sure enough, the kid got furious when he heard it.
Lu Yang quickly grabbed him and said, "It's okay, you weren't beaten, it's a work-related injury..."
Then explain the situation.
When Yin Zhuangzhuang first heard this, he gritted his teeth, feeling anxious and angry.
Especially when he heard that Third Brother Chun had actually jumped into the pond and almost died, he threatened to take a knife and chop all the guys on the tea mountain to death.
But later I heard that Lu Yang stood up for Chun Sange. He first arranged a car to send Chun Sange to the county hospital, and then joined forces with his old man to extort a large sum of money from those scumbags on the tea mountain, and got a full 5000 yuan.
He burst into laughter again.
Lu Yang asked curiously, "Why aren't you worried about Chun San now?"
"worry about what?"
Yin Zhuangzhuang also looked at Lu Yang strangely: "Brother, 5000 yuan, this is a huge sum of money!
With this money, Chun Sange's family can improve their lives and no longer have to worry about where to eat. It makes me feel sad to see such a large family, especially the children, suffering from the cold and hunger all day long.
Brother, you don’t know, his house leaks badly when it rains, and when it’s windy, I don’t even dare to go in, for fear that it will collapse and crush me to death.
And their family of eight had to be crammed in there. Being crushed to death was better than freezing to death, right?
So I said that with this money, their family could take advantage of the opportunity to build a new house, and the lives of all the family members would be guaranteed in the future.
As for Chun Sange's lame leg, that's nothing. It's not like it can't be cured. Even if it really can't be cured, I think it's worth it."
Lu Yang listened and nodded.
I didn't expect that this kid, who is usually impatient and seems out of focus, can think deeply at critical moments.
"Okay, you're asking about the video recorder, aren't you? I also have something to discuss with you, so come with me."
Lu Yang walked out of his father-in-law's yard, then turned around and called out to him, "Follow me, what are you standing there for?"
Yin Zhuangzhuang hurriedly followed.
"Hey, bro, where are we going?"
He had a feeling that something good was going to happen.
Lu Yang rolled his eyes at him and said, "You'll know when you get there. I'll show you the treasures I brought back from Shencheng later."
It would have been fine if he hadn't said this, but once he said it, Yin Zhuangzhuang felt itchy in his heart.
He couldn't help but rubbed his hands and said, "Hey, what's the big deal, brother? Just reveal some information."
Lu Yang didn't want to talk to him: "You'll know when you get there."
The two of them came to the gate of the garment factory together. The Santana sedan that was driven by his father-in-law to pick up Lu Yang in the morning was now parked on the large square in front of the garment factory.
Lu Yang glanced through the car window.
I found that the two large cardboard boxes were gone.
I guess it has been moved into the warehouse by Gong Ping'an and stored.
It just so happened that he also had to go to the warehouse to check the goods, to see if the clothes had been packed, how many sets had been made, and whether the fabric was enough. If not, he would have to go to the city quickly and bring back a batch of fabric. Then he took Yin Zhuangzhuang towards the warehouse in the factory.
