Chapter 155 10 Big Reward [4000]

How rare is it to be able to watch movies for free these days?
That's not rare.

When red movies were being shown in the countryside, whenever a commune broadcast a notice, people from all over the place would rush over. There would be huge crowds of people, loud gongs and drums, and it would be like a festival. People would wait the whole day without feeling tired, just to watch a short movie in the evening.

How long has it been since?

Of course, that was the big screen, and this time it's a small screen, although it also contains big-screen movies.

However, there are few entertainment options in this day and age, so how rare is it to be able to watch a movie?
The key is not spending money.

Ordinary people are the most simple and what they like most are things that don’t cost money.

So just now Brother Bao and his group were blocked outside, and some people were wondering, saying that the farmer’s vegetables were no longer for sale, but they were still trying to squeeze in. Were they distributing money inside?

The truth is out.

Although you don't get paid, you can watch movies for free, which is almost like earning money.

"Boss Lu's business is booming!"

"My brother-in-law is honored to be classmates with you, Boss Lu, and to do business together. Just like just now, with just a small idea from you, Boss Lu, the opening ceremony became so popular. No wonder our Section Chief Jia often says that we should learn more from you, Boss Lu, and learn your courage."

At this moment, Lu Yang was standing with several of Yin Zhuangzhuang's brothers-in-law.

The person who was talking to him was Yin Zhuangzhuang's fourth brother-in-law.

The one who was transferred from the archives to the China Merchants Group was called Director Li.

I had met him once before. We dealt with each other when I bought a stall in the county's free wholesale market. But that time, he seemed very green and a bit honest in his dealings with people. This time, after not seeing him for a few months, it was obvious that he had already become more mature.

(They all know how to flatter. It turns out that the environment makes the person.)
Lu Yang also said cheerfully, "Fourth brother-in-law, you are being a bit harsh on me when you say that, and you are also being too disparaging of our classmate Zhuang Zhuang. Although my brother is a bit eccentric, he has been running the video hall all by himself from beginning to end. I have only helped out and bought some equipment for him. Look at this storefront, he rented it all by himself, and he also brought people to do the decoration. Not bad, isn't it?"

Lu Yang was trying to boost Yin Zhuang's morale so that this kid could stand up straight in front of his four civil servant brothers-in-law and stop being coaxed like a child.

Among Yin Zhuangzhuang's brothers-in-law, the oldest is only in his early 35s, and the youngest, like Director Li, is only two years older than Lu Yang. They are all serious young people.

Everyone thought about the decoration upstairs at this moment, the semi-open style, one room is used as three small houses, and they don't affect each other. They also thought about the location of the storefront and the crowds of people outside. They couldn't help but nod in admiration: "Zhuangzhuang has grown up."

"Yes, now that we know how to make money, we brothers-in-law can finally rest assured. Otherwise, we have to worry about saving some private money and then the brother-in-law will come to our house and knock it away with a bamboo pole."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Joy and rejoice together!"

Several brothers-in-law congratulated each other, and then everyone became happy.

Lu Yang finally understood.

It seems that these brothers-in-law have been cheated by their brother-in-law Yin Zhuangzhuang many times in the past.

I've said so many good things about this kid, but I didn't expect that he would be ridiculed by everyone.

That's it.

It's none of my business.

Lu Yang is not very familiar with these Zhuangzhuang brothers-in-law. The only one he is a little familiar with is this Secretary Li.

So I started a conversation specifically.

I asked my fourth brother-in-law about the opening time of the Free Wholesale Market.

"Are you sure it's still May 5st, Labor Day?"

"Well, it should be correct. There is no document changing the date, so the opening date should be set in stone."

The fourth brother-in-law explained to Lu Yang in detail: "The provincial government will send people to the opening ceremony, and the city will also send people. The specific level of leaders is still confidential to the department for the time being, and it may still be in the process of communication, but it is certain that the provincial leaders will be accompanied by reporters from the provincial newspaper, and similarly, the city leaders will be accompanied by reporters from the city newspaper.

Boss Lu, if you want your clothing brand to be listed in the provincial newspaper or the market newspaper, now is a good opportunity. On the opening day, the market management will organize some activities. If your clothing factory can also participate and make the activities more popular, I think you have a chance. "

Lu Yangguang only bought 21 stalls.

However, if these stalls were not rented out, it would inevitably attract the attention of the market management, so the situation had long been reported to the county's investment promotion office. The leader of the investment promotion department, Chief Jia, handed the investigation of the situation over to Secretary Li, Yin Zhuangzhuang's fourth brother-in-law.

Before, the fourth brother-in-law was still a little worried, fearing that the Lu Yang introduced to him by his father-in-law would be a big scam. He bought so many stalls, but they were just empty and no one came. They were not even rented out. When the time came for the opening, leaders from the province and city would come to inspect and guide the work, and there would be reporters following to take pictures. If they found that there was nothing for sale on so many stalls, that would be a big problem, and the bad impact could be imagined.

At that time, he didn't even have time to eat. After receiving the instructions, he rode his bicycle to his father-in-law's house.

I hope I can convince Lu Yang.

Since we can’t use so many stalls, we can rent out some of them to other people who can’t afford to buy stalls but want to set up stalls in the market.

Good idea.

As a result, when he arrived at Shanghuai Village, he found out that he was wrong.

How wrong it is.

He also completely underestimated Lu Yang.

They quietly set up a garment factory in the countryside, and they employed an incredible number of workers. If you didn't work together, you wouldn't be able to tell. But clothes don't lie!
The thousands of rolls of cloth and hundreds of thousands of finished clothes in the warehouse cannot deceive anyone.

The funny thing is.

A formal clerk in the county investment promotion office like myself was kept in the dark and had no idea of ​​the situation, yet I wanted to come here to demand an explanation.

For a moment, he felt ashamed and excited.

Later, things became simple.

I asked my father-in-law about the specific situation on Lu Yang's side.

He immediately went back and reported to Chief Jia.

Then, a plan of activities was drawn up for the market’s opening day.

The activity plan is hosted by the county investment promotion office, and the market cooperates. As for the merchants in the market, they are encouraged to sign up actively, donate money or goods, or launch product discount information, etc. Specifically, after the merchants have been discussed, all these activities will be printed on a flyer one by one, and the last round of bombardment publicity before the opening will be launched.

As for the inspiration, it was actually provided by Lu Yang when he was chatting with Section Chief Jia.

And today, he will use this inspiration to gain support from Lu Yang.

Lu Yang glanced at his classmate Zhuang Zhuang's fourth brother-in-law, who was looking at him a little nervously and expectantly, and asked cheerfully, "Then fourth brother-in-law, what do you think I should do?"

He actually already had an idea in his mind.

I just want to test my fourth brother-in-law.

Secretary Li thought about it, and after considering it for a moment, he pushed the frame of his glasses and said, "I think Boss Lu, you should offer discounts on your clothes. On the opening day, I believe it will definitely attract many people from the county to stroll around the market. If they find that the clothes on your stall are discounted, I believe many people will be willing to spend money to buy one or two pieces.

As for wholesale, I think you should also prepare some small gifts for wholesalers who come to buy goods, such as teapots, thermos cups, lunch boxes, etc. These things are not expensive, but your stall has small gifts for giving away, and other stalls don’t have small gifts for giving away. Then wholesalers will definitely give priority to your stall to buy clothes and sell them back. What do you think, Mr. Lu?"

He had said to be as careful as possible.

As for the discount for retail sales to citizens, he believed that his bold peers would definitely agree as long as the discount was not too big. However, giving gifts to wholesalers who came to purchase goods had never been done before. Teapots, thermoses, lunch boxes, these things were not expensive, but he estimated that the profit from wholesale clothing would not be too high. What if Boss Lu felt that it was too much of a loss?

Lu Yang was amused.

It seems that Yin Zhuangzhuang's fourth brother-in-law has indeed grown a lot.

It's just a bit conservative.

“That’s a good idea.”

"Well, let me ask you a few questions first."

Lu Yang suddenly looked at him and said, "How much money has your county investment promotion office prepared for the opening day activities? How many flyers are you going to print?"

"This one……"

The fourth brother-in-law said a little nervously: "The funding has not been approved yet, but we plan to print at least 5 flyers for the event."

According to statistics, the population of Zhao County in 90 should be around 95, and the number of registered households is between 25 and 30. The county investment promotion office is going to print 5 flyers for the opening day. It cannot be said that every household in the county will get one flyer, but at least every four or five households will get one flyer.

The effort is quite significant.

But Lu Yang frowned and said unsatisfiedly: "Too few, I suggest you print at least 10 copies. If conditions permit, it is best to give one copy to each household. Send them directly to the village committee of each village through government means, and let them distribute them to every household. In this way, wouldn't the people of the whole county know that you are holding an event for the opening of the business this time?"

After hearing what Lu Yang said, the fourth brother-in-law fell silent.

He was wondering why Lu Yang made this request?
The other three brothers-in-law didn't know much about the whole thing, so they expressed their opinions one by one:

"Isn't it too exaggerated?"

"Yeah, I'm worried after hearing what you said. Let's not talk about how much money it will cost Lao Si and his department to print so many event flyers. If the opening promotion activities promoted on these event flyers are not strong enough, won't the whole county laugh at us?"

"It's not advisable to be too ambitious. It's better to be down-to-earth. In my opinion, 5 flyers are too much. Good wine needs no bush. It's better to save some money and prepare more tea. If the people who come to stroll around on the opening day are tired, you can provide them with free tea, which can also win more goodwill for your department."

The three brothers-in-law of Zhuangzhuang all started from the perspective of being civil servants.

What you said is correct.

They just didn't take the ideas of the vendors who set up stalls into consideration. What the vendors want is traffic, and of course they hope that the promotion of the event on the opening day will be as strong as possible.

Just as Zhuangzhuang's fourth brother-in-law collected his thoughts and was thinking about how to explain the details to his three brothers-in-law.

Lu Yang laughed loudly and said, "My three brothers-in-law, you are totally wrong, but what I said is not an exaggeration at all."

He then said to his fourth brother-in-law who was about to open his mouth, "How about this, no matter what kind of activities other stall owners are planning to launch, with me, as long as it is the event flyer issued by your market management for the first three days of opening, anyone who comes to my stall with this flyer to buy clothes will only be able to buy one set per person, regardless of whether it is men's or women's clothing, and it will be two yuan per set. You heard it right, it is two yuan per set, which is one yuan cheaper than the wholesale price. This promise is valid for the first three days of opening. After three days, the promise will be invalid and the clothes will return to their original price."

hiss~~~
There was a sound of people sucking in cold air as if cold air was invading.

And this voice came from four people.

Yin Zhuangzhuang's four brothers-in-law all widened their eyes, stunned, and looked at Lu Yang in disbelief.

It was as if I had just gotten to know him all over again.

"My goodness!"

"A piece of clothing that costs two dollars, isn't that like picking it up for free?"

"Did I hear it right? No, I must have heard it wrong."

"really?"

The most nervous one was my fourth brother-in-law.

Being stared at by four pairs of eyes, Lu Yang said calmly: "Of course it is more real than real gold. Do you think I need to lie?"

"But……"

Fourth brother-in-law still can’t understand. Isn’t the purpose of doing business to make money?

"You will lose money this way, right?"

As an officer of the county investment promotion department, since he learned that Lu Yang was engaged in the clothing business, he also inquired about the market conditions of the clothing market.

As far as he knows, in the current market situation, the retail price of winter clothes is no less than 15 yuan, and the retail price of summer clothes is no less than 8 yuan. Even in rural areas, many people are reluctant to spend money and buy cloth to make their own clothes. As for winter clothes, according to the current market price, they cannot make a set of clothes for less than 10 yuan. For summer clothes, the material is less, but it still costs at least five or six yuan. After all, the retail price of cloth is not cheap.

And if it is clothing wholesale, winter clothes, as far as he knows, are generally more than seven yuan, not cheaper than seven yuan. As for summer clothes, 3 yuan should be the cheapest base price. He has not found any wholesale price of clothing lower than this.

But now, Lu Yang actually said that he wanted to sell clothes for two yuan a set. It was hard for him, as he didn't think he had heard it wrong.

Is Lu Yang crazy?

Or is there really someone in this world who is willing to lose money to gain publicity?
Lu Yang said happily: "It's impossible to lose money, but it's also true that I don't make any money. Just tell me, okay?"

I have worked so hard to stock up for so long.

I only make 20 cents for a set of clothes, so it shouldn’t be considered as making money at all, right?
