Chapter 41 A blessing in disguise
Cui Changjia made a trip to Fengcheng County and gained a lot.
This shop in Fengcheng County is run by the proprietress Sister Song Xiuting. When Cui Changjia went over to talk to her, she readily paid the payment of more than 15 yuan for the goods. She was also very interested in Cui Changjia's batch of furniture, but she pushed Cui Changjia to lower the price by points, and Cui Changjia was reluctant to sell it to her.
Cui Changjia was in a good mood on the way back. Although he had some setbacks, met some weird bosses, and some with bad attitudes, overall it was very rewarding. All in all, he received about 120,000 yuan in payment for goods and sold goods worth 20,000 yuan.
When passing by a large wholesale market in the county town, she went in and spent nearly a thousand yuan to buy thick clothes and shoes for the whole family.
Coats, autumn clothes, scarves, hats, shoes, socks, underwear. Cui Changjia bought everything he could wear on a daily basis.
Buying clothes from the wholesale market depends entirely on your eyesight. Some clothes are only a few dollars more expensive than ordinary clothes, but the quality is much worse. Some goods are of good quality and cheap. Of course, if you want to buy fashionable or designer clothes here, the chances are still slim.
Relying on the experience accumulated from working in a garment factory in his previous life, Cui Changjia chose clothes that were both high-quality and warm.
She even bought a hat, shoes and socks for Xiang Sao. Someone who could share her hardships deserved to be treated so well.
Among all these clothes, the one I am most satisfied with is the hoodless goose yellow quilted cotton jacket that I bought for Cui Changle. It has a white short-pile collar and is delicate and cute.
The weather is getting colder day by day, and you will need to wear cotton clothes in the morning and evening.
Not long after she came out of the market, she received a call from Mr. Niu.
Niu Zhian came up to Cui Changjia and said, "Xiao Cui, do you know what people in the furniture industry think of your family's affairs?"
Cui Changjia's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. "Boss Niu, our family has been making furniture for decades, and we have a good reputation."
"I'm not talking about the quality of your furniture," Niu Zhian interrupted Cui Changjia, "If you say there's nothing fishy about such a big fire, no one will believe it. I can't take the risk. I don't want that batch of furniture. Please return my deposit to me."
Cui Changjia felt heavy in his heart and slowly parked the car on the side of the road.
Cui Changjia took a deep breath, suppressed his inner powerlessness and anxiety, and said slowly, "Boss Niu, as far as I know, no furniture store has had its furniture sales affected by these weird rumors."
Niu Zhian said, "I don't care about others. I can't take this batch of goods. Please return the money to me."
Cui Xiuyuan was right. Niu Zhian was a cautious and serious person.
Cui Changjia said silently without hesitation, "Okay, I'm on my way back to Yu Tang now. I will definitely send the deposit to you no matter how early or late it is today."
Seeing that Cui Changjia agreed very readily, Niu Zhian said it didn't matter whether it was early or late, as long as it could be sent back today, and then hung up the phone.
Cui Changjia took a few deep breaths, adjusted his mood, and called Song Xiuting.
This trip to Yutang City has been very fruitful. Since Niu Zhian believes this, there is no need to argue with him.
Doing business is like getting married and living together. Some marriages get divorced, and it is normal for a business to fail halfway.
It is normal for Niu Zhian to regret it, and you still have to keep a normal mind.
No matter how poor the Cui family is, they cannot lose their dignity and backbone!
The call was quickly connected. "Sister Song, this is Xiao Cui."
"Xiao Cui, what's wrong?"
"I thought about it on the way back. If you can take all my goods, I can give them to you at that price, and I will cover the shipping cost." The total value of the goods is 15 yuan. If the price is reduced by %, it will be almost more than yuan, which can save Song Xiuting more than yuan.
"Xiao Cui, I don't need so many goods." Song Xiuting said, "My store's main customers are from the county and the countryside. We don't sell expensive furniture like yours. If they are outdated after a long time, I will lose money if I keep them. Don't even think about making money."
Cui Changjia calmed down and said, "Sister Song, I know our family business quite well. Last year, you bought 400,000 worth of goods from us, which is an average of 100,000 per quarter. That means if you want all the goods I have, they will be sold out in two months at most."
Song Xiuting listened to Cui Changjia's data analysis and was obviously stunned for a while before saying, "Oh, this year's business is not as good as last year."
Hearing Song Xiuting say this, Cui Changjia knew that he was right, and his heavy heart was slightly relieved. "Sister Song, high-quality furniture can be sold at a high price and the profit is also high. Fengcheng County has developed very well in the past two years, and everyone has money in their hands. I think there is still a market for good furniture, don't you think?"
The lady boss smiled and said, "There is a market, but you have too much of this stuff, so it's very risky."
"Yes, Sister Song, you are right. How about I go back and see how much you can charge for the goods? If you can get 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, I will give it to you at the price you mentioned."
"How about this, you lower the price by 20% and I'll give you all the goods. It's inevitable that these goods will be damaged when they are transported here and there, so just give them to me and I won't ask you to deal with the damaged ones anymore, okay?"
Cui Changjia couldn't help but take a deep breath and smiled bitterly, "Sister Song, this price is too low. How about this, reduce it by 18% and leave me some money for shipping, okay?"
"Hey, little girl, please be generous in doing business. I'll pay for the shipping, okay?"
Cui Changjia smiled bitterly, "Since we've come to this, Sister Song, I'll just follow the price you mentioned. I'll still pay for the shipping fee."
These goods can only be exchanged for money if they are sold. If they are kept in hand, they will be worthless. However, in this round of exchange, they lost more than 100,000 yuan.
Song Xiuting smiled and said, "That's right."
"Sister Song, shall I go back now and sign the contract?"
"If you trust me, I'll just bring the goods here, saving you the trouble of making another trip."
Cui Changjia said, "Of course I can trust you, but I just went to our wholesale market to buy something, and it will only take me ten minutes to go back, so please wait for me."
When Cui Changjia went back, Song Xiuting readily signed a contract with her and paid Cui Changjia a deposit of 20,000 yuan.
During the two days in Yutang City, Cui Changjia truly understood what it meant to "do business as business."
Niu Zhian changed his mind because of the rumors, and Song Xiuting took advantage of the situation without hesitation to lower the price for Cui Changjia. Can you say they are bad because of this?
No, people just want to gain a little more for their own interests, that's all.
Because of this delay, it was almost dark when Cui Changjia returned to Yutang City.
Cui Chengze's shop was also closed. Before that, he called Cui Changjia in frustration and said that he had only collected a total of 900 yuan today, and asked Cui Changjia what to do.
Since you guys think the male protagonist’s name is not nice, I decided to change his name before he appears too many times!
Haha, I was just thinking about that.
