Traveling through the Eighth Five-Year Plan: Starting from selling fruit at a stall

Chapter 53 Clothes Display Rack

Chen Pandi wiped all the tapes carefully, checked the quantity with Ling Yue, brought Ling Yue's unsold department stores with her, pushed the tricycle and left.

Ling Yue watched her go away, and said to Chen Zhaodi: "Zhaodi, Master Liu will come to install the fitting room later, if I'm busy, remember to help me."

Chen Zhaodi nodded and arranged the clothes with her.

Ling Yue sighed a little irritably, the clothes were piled up on the ground in such a mess, like a street stall at the night market!
In the past, it could be said that the department store was not finished washing, but now someone in the department store is helping to deal with it, and the clothes display rack should also be put on the agenda.

Just thinking about this, Ji Zhongqiu also came.

He looked at the door of the store for a while, and always felt that something was missing, so he asked Ling Yue: "Sister, why do I think there is something missing at your door?"

Ling Yue and Chen Zhaodi looked at each other and laughed: "Isn't it the tape? Pandi pushed the tricycle and sold it for me."

"Oh."

Ji Zhongqiu stretched his voice, and suddenly realized something, his face changed, his expression was gloomy: "Well, sister, what did you just say, who sold the tape for you?"

"Chen Pandi, Zhaodi's younger sister, Pandi."

Hearing Ling Yue's explanation, Ji Zhongqiu suddenly shivered on a hot day.

He swallowed hard: "Sister, I haven't had breakfast yet, I'm going to buy a bun."

How did he come up with such a poor excuse?

Ling Yue and Chen Zhaodi looked at each other, unmoved at all: "He has already gone far, why are you hiding!"

Only then did Ji Zhongqiu feel relieved. He just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Ling Yue asking him: "Mid-Autumn Festival, do you know where there is a hardware store?"

Ling Yue had to guard the store, so she couldn't leave at all.The clothes display stand can only be handed over to Ji Zhongqiu, who will go to a hardware store to make it.

All in all, Ji Zhongqiu really helped me a lot during this time, someday I have to find time to treat him to a meal and treat him well.

Ji Zhongqiu guessed right: "I know, sister, are you going to make a clothes display rack?"

"Then I will leave this matter to you, and you must help me with it."

"Okay, wrap it on me, how many do you want?"

Ling Yue put down the clothes in his hand, and walked around the store with pen and ink, "At least ten 1.5-meter display racks are needed, eight of which can be placed in the store, and two can be placed outside."

The two facades are four meters wide and eight meters long. Four display racks are placed horizontally, and aisles can be left. Two rows of galvanized water pipes are hung on the wall to hang long dresses. It looks very crowded.

Thinking of this, she asked Ji Zhongqiu again: "Mid-Autumn Festival, do you still remember the metal shelf they hung on the wall when we purchased goods in Zhushi?"

"Remember, sister, do you want that kind too?"

"Yes. Let's keep it simple, you get me eight six-meter-long galvanized water pipes, and we hang them directly on the wall."

The house in the 80s was not a frame structure. A wall separated the two facades. There was not even a door opening in the wall. At that time, someone had to be hired to open the wall.

Ling Yue originally didn't want to renovate, but the business is so good that decoration still can't be saved.

Now that the clothes are not even hung up, the turnover in the past two days is much stronger than that of selling department stores, and the profit is also higher.

Since decoration can't be saved, and I don't want to delay the business, I can only sell and decorate at the same time.

She has already figured it out, only open the two doors on the side of the department store, block the door on the other side with a glass window, put two fake models in it, and get some plastic flowers and plants if you can, If you can't get it, you can put potted green plants such as fortune trees, which have their own characteristics.

I'm afraid that this fake model is not easy to buy.

Ji Zhongqiu raised his eyebrows: "Sister, galvanized water pipes are not cheap now, are you sure you want galvanized?"

"Of course, I want it no matter how expensive it is. I can't be like them, just hang a bamboo pole on the wall and sell clothes."

That's not impossible, but it doesn't have its own characteristics.

And bamboo really affects the appearance.

As for the windows, it's a little trickier.

The width of the facade of a single room is only four meters, and I don't know if there is such a large glass now.

"When am I going?"

"Go now, this matter cannot be delayed."

Ji Zhongqiu ran to the hardware store without saying a word.

Master Liu arrived after nine o'clock. He rode a tricycle, pulled a wooden board, and the guy who ate with him, and even brought the ready cashier.

Lifting the cash register and placing it in the store, it doesn't look so empty as a whole.

Master Liu had already measured the size yesterday, and he also knew where the fitting room should be placed. He will start working immediately when he comes today.

It only took one morning, Chen Zhaodi just helped out, and Master Liu finished the fitting room and applied a layer of primer.

After finishing the primer, Master Liu said to Ling Yue, "Madam, I'll come back to paint twice tomorrow, and the job is done."

Ling Yue nodded: "That's fine, I have another thing I want to ask for your help."

She took him to the door on the right, "This door opens inwards, can you help me change it to a folding door that opens outwards, I want to make a glass window here."

Master Liu looked at it for a while, pondered for a moment, and said: "You want to install a glass cabinet inside, and it's not good to install folding doors. It's better to install a row of doors."

row door?

When Ling Yue heard this term for the first time, she was confused.

“It’s the detachable shop door, which is rare now. When there were no loose leaves, this kind of door was everywhere in our area. When the door is closed, the wooden boards are stuck in the groove and pushed in, and the door is opened one by one. Take it out one by one. Do you understand what I said?"

Ling Yue is still confused, what is this?
Why can't she understand a word?
Master Liu had no choice but to shake his head: "Come and have a look at my house at night, my house still uses this kind of door."

Ling Yue was even more confused. She just wanted to change the door, so why did she go to his house to see his door?
Master Liu saw that she hadn't reacted at all, leaving only this sentence, got on his tricycle and left.

After lunch, Ji Zhongqiu came back with a clothing display stand.

"Sister, do you want this kind of display stand?"

Ling Yue was overjoyed immediately: "Mid-Autumn Festival, you can be efficient, you can make one in such a short time?"

Ji Zhongqiu grinned and showed his big white teeth: "Sister, this display stand hasn't been painted yet. I brought it back to show you whether you want this kind of display, and secondly, I want to ask you if you want to paint it."

"Give it black paint." Ling Yue smiled all over his eyes, and said, "But the galvanized pipes hanging on the wall don't need to be painted."

"Okay, I see. In addition, this display stand costs 15 yuan per package, are you sure you want ten?"

Chen Zhaodi took a breath: "15 yuan, why is it so expensive?"

Ji Zhongqiu ignored her, "I also asked about the galvanized water pipes you want to hang on the wall. It costs two yuan per meter."

Two yuan is one meter, six meters is 12 yuan, and if I want eight, it is 96 yuan.

The price is acceptable.

"Okay, I'll give you a deposit of 100 yuan first, and you can keep an eye on it for me."

Ling Yue took out 100 yuan and handed it to Ji Zhongqiu.

Just as Ji Zhongqiu took the money and wanted to take the display stand back to the hardware store, Ling Yue stopped him.

She looked at him dumbfounded: "You have already moved here, why move back!"

It just so happens that I don't have anything to hang clothes here, so now that I have a display stand, I have to use it.

Ji Zhongqiu smiled and was about to leave when Ling Yue asked, "Mid-Autumn Festival, do you know what Paimen is?"

Ji Zhongqiu nodded: "I know, all the shops in this area used to have this kind of door, but now no one uses this kind of door."

"You know what it's like?"

"Let me make an analogy," Ji Zhongqiu picked up four unopened clothes, "these four clothes are four wooden boards, when you open the door in the morning, you take the wooden boards off one by one, and put them back at night, so you understand Yet?"

Ling Yue finally understood: "This door is good, it doesn't take up space!"

"It doesn't take up space, the main thing is that it can be disassembled to better display the goods in the store."

Ling Yue suddenly realized, and swept away the haze just now: "So it is like this!"

It seems that we have to discuss with the landlord to see if he agrees to change the door over there to a row door.

The display rack came back, although there was only one, Ling Yue asked Zhaodi to go to the department store to buy a few hangers, and after hanging out some distinctive clothes, it looked more like that here.
