Chapter 573: Starting from scratch again
Du Juan was stunned as she watched the business in Jinxiu Pavilion become visibly booming. "Miss, this... this material doesn't seem to be enough to sell!"
Shen Wantang's smile was very bright at this moment: "It's true that there are not enough to sell. It's time to ask my cousin to restock."
"But, if I remember correctly, the materials for men's clothing have been in stock for a long time, right? Although it is somewhat similar to the material on Prince Xiao, if you look closely, they are not the same. Why are they all fighting for it?"
"Because no one would take these materials and ask Xiao Qingyuan to compare them carefully. It's almost enough. If you really want to buy the material like Xiao Qingyuan has, how can you buy it with five taels of silver? At least fifty taels."
"There is also material for women's clothing. When I came in, I heard Miss Liu say that she seemed to want some Shuiyunyan. Does Jinxiu Pavilion still have this kind of material? Miss Liu ordered two pieces?"
"She hasn't decided yet, because this kind of material hasn't been purchased yet in Jinxiu Pavilion."
"what?!"
Du Juan couldn't help but widen her eyes. After a while, she asked in a low voice: "Miss, then this is not considered cheating? This, this is not good, right?"
Shen Wantang chuckled, "Of course you have to be flexible when doing business. Otherwise, if you are too honest, you won't be able to sell anything. Besides, our materials are all good materials, and the prices are absolutely fair. We are not cheating, we just used some tricks. Xiao Qingyuan and Liu Nanshi have caused such a big commotion, wouldn't it be a pity not to take advantage of it?"
She could have avoided this, but the problem was that last year, her cousin Jiang Yan secretly bought a batch of expensive, mature-colored materials without telling her. As a result, he couldn't sell them at all and they remained in the shop, making it extremely difficult for Jinxiu Pavilion to turn around.
Now that there is such a good opportunity to clear out inventory, she certainly won't let it go.
She didn't lie to Du Juan. The materials were indeed of excellent quality. In addition, in order to clear the inventory quickly, they were not making any profit and were selling at cost price.
What she wants to do is long-term business, not a one-time deal, so she is determined to attract this wave of repeat customers!
They really made a good deal on this batch of materials. Once they try them on, they will know that they are all good materials. They are comfortable, durable, do not fade, and are not easy to wrinkle. They will definitely buy them again in the future.
When buying something, you may be impulsive because of some gimmick.
But once something is bought, the impulse will disappear and the gimmick will become of no practical use. If you want people to really like it and want to buy it again, you still have to rely on the quality of the thing itself.
Of course, the next time they come to buy, the price will definitely not be the same. If she sells at cost price every day, her shop will have to close down in a few days!
As soon as Jiang Yan came in from outside, he was stunned by the hot scene in front of him. He took a lot of effort to get through the crowded crowd and find Shen Wantang.
"Cousin, what's going on? Why are there suddenly so many more people in Jinxiu Pavilion? We don't have enough staff!"
Shen Wantang smiled at him, then got up and went upstairs.
Jiang Yan hurriedly followed him upstairs. When he reached the second floor and heard Shen Wantang's plan, he was surprised and delighted and said, "My cousin really has a business mind. You are a business genius!"
He is different from little maids like Dujuan. He has been doing business outside in the past two years and traveling everywhere. He knows that one cannot be too honest and rigid in doing business, and he has suffered a lot of losses because of this.
As long as you don't cheat or deceive, it's normal to use some tricks.
He rubbed his hands excitedly: "Great! This batch of accumulated materials will finally be cleared out. As long as we can clear out these materials, our turnover will be much easier!"
Shen Wantang glanced at him and said, "Will my cousin buy goods on his own initiative next time? Will he make money without telling me?"
Jiang Yan's face flushed all of a sudden: "No, I've learned my lesson. No matter what goods I want to buy in the future, I will always discuss it with my cousin first. If my cousin doesn't agree, I won't buy it."
He didn't accept it before, but now he really accepts it.
Business is something that requires talent. He now knows that Shen Wantang's talent is much better than his, so he is willing to listen to her.
Shen Wantang didn't blame him too much. After all, she knew that her future cousin would follow her lead.
"Cousin, do you have any new materials recently? The goods in our shop should be sold out today, and it's time to get new ones."
"Yes! There are several new ones, but I can't make up my mind, so it's a good opportunity for you to pick one!"
Jiang Yan took out a thick stack of materials and began to introduce them to Shen Wantang in detail.
When the fifth piece of material was introduced, Shen Wantang showed no reaction on her face, but Du Juan, who was standing next to her, exclaimed: "Shui Yunyan? There really is such a material! Miss, this is what Miss Liu wants to buy, right?"
Shen Wantang nodded calmly: "Maybe!"
Jiang Yan hurriedly said, "Miss Liu is here to buy Shuiyunyan? Cousin, this material is extremely difficult to weave, there are very few finished products, and the price is extremely expensive. I'm afraid we can't buy a few pieces with the money we have now. You see..."
"Buy as many as you have cousins. Also, after you get the goods, keep the best piece for me. I want to give it away."
Jiang Yan had previously been unable to sell the expensive materials he had purchased, causing difficulties for the shop. Now he had to purchase the even more expensive Shuiyunyan. He couldn't help but hesitate: "Cousin, the price of Shuiyunyan is more than ten times higher than the materials I purchased before. I'm afraid there are not many families in the capital who can afford it. What if I can't sell it..."
Shen Wantang looked calm: "Cousin, don't worry about the stock. I have a way to sell all the Shui Yunyan. By then, you might think that the stock you bought is too little!"
When Jiang Yan heard her say this, he felt relieved. His cousin was very smart. If she said she had a way, then she must have thought of a sales channel a long time ago.
He no longer hesitated, and nodded with a slightly excited look: "Okay, I'll listen to you, all our money will go to Shui Yunyan!"
You know, the higher the purchase price of the material, the more money you can make. You can't make much money by selling materials that cost a few taels of silver per piece on a normal day. You still have to rely on more expensive materials to earn the money of rich people!
Shen Wantang could not help but shake his head. How could a clothing shop be run with only Shui Yunyan? He must also import some other fabrics.
But the capital was too little, so it was impossible for her to buy all the goods she wanted to sell.
She sighed softly: "Alas, I came to the shop hoping to get some money, but not only did I not get any money, I even had to pay for it."
This is the bad thing about being reborn. You have to start from scratch again and you can’t enjoy the good life even if you want to.
