Not two days after New Year's Day, Lu Jiaxin went to the canteen to make a phone call and saw Sister Chen showing off her newly purchased leather shoes to the proprietress of the canteen.

Sister Chen lifted the shoes on her feet and asked, "Ali, do they look good?"

The fat aunt couldn't turn her eyes away after looking at the leather shoes, but she said: "What's the use of looking good? They're not warm, they're not as good as my cotton shoes!"

Sister Chen held the wall with her left hand and took off her shoes with her right hand, peeling them open to reveal the velvet inside: "Did you see it? Such thick fur makes your feet very warm."

As soon as Lu Jiaxin saw the style of the leather shoes, she knew that she had found a factory to make them. The artificial leather used in this model is the lowest price.

The fat aunt reached out and touched it. The cotton was thick and soft. She was very excited and wanted to buy a pair: "Where did you buy it? How much does it cost?"

Sister Chen said she bought it on Xiushui Street: "My husband went shopping there yesterday and saw everyone rushing for leather shoes. He knew I was afraid of the cold, so the shoe seller said they were warm and waterproof, so he bought a pair. "

When she first learned that her husband bought her shoes, Sister Chen scolded her for wasting money, mainly because none of the things her husband bought with poor taste made her like it. When I saw the shoes, I was really surprised.

"How much does a pair cost?"

"The asking price was eighty-eight, and after haggling for a long time, I got it sixty-six and eighty-eight."

The wholesale price is thirty-four, and the turnaround price is sixty-eight. This price is actually not bad. But this is artificial leather, so the price is definitely not too high. Su Heyuan wholesales goods to buyers in Sijiucheng, and the buyers also make money. Of course, this does not include Hong Kong City. The other party would not be envious if they had such channels.

The fat aunt was very excited and decided to buy a pair to wear.

When Xue Mao heard the news, he went to Xiushui Street in the afternoon. When he came back, he said to Lu Jiaxin somewhat depressedly: "Sister Xin, the leather shoes we make are one hundred and eighty-eight pairs of lambskin shoes and one hundred and sixty-eight pairs of sheepskin shoes." One pair, eighty-eight pairs of artificial leather. The price is more than double the price we sell it for."

Lu Jiaxin thinks it's normal: "For people to transport it here from Yangcheng, freight and labor costs are a huge expense. Transport it to Sijiu City and then wholesale it to the people below. You will make a lot of money by doing it."

She knew very well that Su Heyuan was interested in the design of those shoes, so he didn't lower the price too much. Otherwise, if this guy doesn't show martial ethics and just does it like a shoe, she won't be able to earn so much.

Xue Mao thought it was true when he heard it, but he still felt it was too exaggerated: "Sister, the difference between the cost and the selling price is too big."

Lu Jiaxin said: "That's a preemptive opportunity. When the imitation shoes come out next year, they will fall by at least 30 to 40%. Although they will still make money, they will definitely not be that much."

The clothing industry in this era is inherently profitable. The shoes they produce are novel in style, good in quality and warm, and are just right for the cold weather. In addition, the seller boasted that this was a famous brand product from Hong Kong City, and many people did not think it was expensive even if the price was 188. You must know that in department stores, the styles are not so good-looking, and winter shoes cost 1,890 or even more than 200.

Xue Mao did the math and found that even if it fell by 30%, he would still make some money, but not that high. Although the shoes are said to be covered by Su Heyuan, Xue Mao still goes to Xiushui Street to understand the sales situation.

A few days later, Xue Mao said: "Sister, our shoes are sold out. Many people want to buy them, but they can't buy them anymore. Sister, are there so many rich people in Sijiu City?"

Not to mention lambskin, even the discount price for artificial leather is 68, which is a month's salary for some people.

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "This is the capital, and now young men and women can only have one child under family planning, so the pressure in life is much lighter. If you have money on hand, you can afford to buy a pair of practical shoes for the New Year."

There will be no shortage of wealthy people in any dynasty or generation. Twenty years later, many places have not yet emerged from poverty, but some places are living in a state of dissipation.

Xiaoqiu asked: "Sister-in-law, all the shoes are sold out. Why haven't my father and fifth uncle come back?"

School will be out in one week, and Lu Jiaxin said it was too cold and she would not set up a stall after the holiday. She wanted to go home if she had nothing to do. She didn't feel it when she was at home. She missed her grandparents and mother after being out for so long. "She should be back in the next few days."

Xiaoqiu made an appointment with Lu Jiazong before coming to Sijiu City. After all the shoes were delivered and there was nothing to do, he would come to Sijiu City and take Xiaoqiu home with him.

Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here. The fat aunt shouted from outside: "Lu Jiaxin, your phone call will come in five minutes. Hurry up."

"Coming, coming." Lu Jiaxin responded.

The call was from Lu Jiajie, saying that he had bought a ticket back and would be home in four days: "Second brother will go back by himself. I will go back to celebrate the New Year this year, and Xiaoqiu will come with me."

According to the original plan, Lu Jiazong went to Sijiu City to pick up Xiaoqiu and return to his hometown. However, Lu Jiajie is going back to his hometown for the New Year, so there is really no need for him to come to Sijiu City.

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "When I get back, I have to treat Master Jia and Brother Ale to dinner. They have worked hard during this time."

Lu Jiajie said: "Master Jia and Xiang Yang have found jobs here. If they want to make more money, they won't go back to celebrate the New Year. Their bonuses will be given to their families when I come back."

Lu Jiaxin has already paid their salary, but not their bonus. They will wait for Lu Jiajie to come over and give it to them.

"What about Brother A Le and Brother Asheng?"

Lu Jiajie said that the two of them went back to Sijiucheng with him: "They said they couldn't make enough money. If they want to make money, they can go again next year. The family must be together during the New Year."

The main reason is that Lu Jiaxin has paid for the ticket, so they don't have to pay for it themselves. Plus, I miss my family after being away for several months. Of course, the most important thing is that the two of them feel that Lu Jiaxin is so capable and will definitely recruit Lu Jiajie, so they will just follow Lu Jiajie in the future.

"Then be careful on the road."

Xiaoqiu knew that his father could not come to pick him up, so he asked with some worry: "Sister-in-law, will my fifth uncle really go back to celebrate the New Year? I think grandma, mother, and daughter are gone."

"Since your fifth uncle said it, he will definitely go back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year."

"Sister-in-law, what about you?" Xiaoqiu asked. After being here for more than two months, she knew that the relationship between Lu Jiaxin and Lu Hongjun was very tense, and it was almost impossible to celebrate the New Year together.

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "In the first year since I moved here, I will definitely celebrate the New Year at home. Then we will see if we can invite my elder brother and sister-in-law to come over."

In the first year after moving to a new home, it was customary to celebrate the New Year at the new home. Otherwise, she could take Xue Mao and Qian Xiaoxiao to her eldest brother's house to celebrate the New Year. She respects and loves Lu Jiaguang from the bottom of her heart.

Xiaoqiu patted her head and said, "Look at me, I have forgotten such an important thing. Sister, after the new year, I still want to go back to Sijiu City with my fifth uncle to sell breakfast with Uncle Xue Mao."

This was a test to see if Lu Jiaxin was willing to let her continue to sell breakfast with Xue Mao.

How could Lu Jiaxin not understand the underlying meaning? She smiled and said, "As long as you are not afraid of hard work, come with your fifth uncle."

"It's not hard, not hard at all."
