Chapter 140 Lu Jiaguang Gets Promoted
The clothing store opened for a month, and after deducting rent, utilities and labor costs, it made 6,200 yuan. Xue Mao and Xiao Qiu were paid 80 yuan per month, and Lu Jiajie was paid 300 yuan.
Because the business was good, Lu Jiajie sent away those who came to make trouble, and he also kept watch in the store at night. It was just that his mouth was not firm enough, otherwise he could do this business.
After receiving the money, Lu Jiajie told her that he wanted to go to Yangcheng to have a look. If he could import a batch of goods and sell them back, the profit could at least double.
Lu Jiaxin didn't believe in his aesthetics, but she wouldn't stop him. Lu Jiajie was very strong in both ability and communication, but he had never suffered from hardship since he was a child. Now that he is out to do business on his own, he may change his bad habits and become mature and stable after a few setbacks.
After thinking for a while, Lu Jiaxin said, "With your vision, it's basically impossible to double the money you choose. If you want to make more money, you should hire someone with a good vision to help you choose the goods."
"Okay."
Lu Jiajie only paid back Lu Jiaguang's money from the bonus Lu Jiaxin gave him before, and he didn't pay back Lu Hongjun's money. It's not that he is refusing to pay, but he wanted to start his own business last year. In addition to this month's salary and the little money he made with his friends in the first month of the year, he now has 3,000 yuan on hand.
This money is still not enough. But he didn't have the face to ask Lu Jiaxin for money from Ma Lili, so he borrowed 2,000 yuan from a few close friends.
They collected 5,000 yuan and prepared to go south. A Sheng had something to do and couldn't leave, so Lu Jiajie only asked A Le to go with him. The two children were not sent to the Ma family, and A Le's aunt came after the Lantern Festival.
As A Le's mother said, her eldest sister is diligent and hygienic, and her meals are delicious, even Ma Lili can't find any faults.
After everything was arranged, he left with Ah Le. Half a month later, he brought back 580 sets of clothes. After the clothes were shipped back, he asked Lu Jiaxin to choose first.
When Lu Jiaxin saw these clothes, she felt that the person she found had good taste. These clothes were not only of good quality, but also fashionable and easy to match.
Lu Jiajie explained: "I made a lot of friends in Yangcheng before, and asked them to help me find someone who has a good eye for choosing clothes. A friend's sister happens to be in the clothing business, so I asked her for help. Jiaxin, how about this batch of clothes? Can they be sold well?"
Lu Jiaxin nodded and said: "They are very beautiful, I'll buy them all, according to Brother Hu's price."
Lu Jiajie waved his hand and said: "No, just add 20% to the purchase price."
Lu Jiaxin couldn't take advantage of him: "Brothers should settle accounts clearly. You have to spend money on food, accommodation and transportation when you go to Yangcheng to purchase goods, and Ale also has to pay wages, and the freight is also a lot. 20% is definitely a loss, I can't make money while you lose money, we have to follow the rules. If you don't want, then I don't want this batch of goods."
Lu Jiajie knew her personality Lu Jiajie smiled and said, "Brother Hu's price is too low. The purchase price of this batch of goods is 9,800 yuan, you just need to give me 12,000 yuan."
"You only have 5,000 yuan, is this someone giving you credit?"
Lu Jiajie smiled and said, "I still benefited from you. Su Heming guaranteed me, so I only paid half of the money. The remaining half will be sent after the goods are shipped."
Su Heming did not tell her about this, and Lu Jiaxin did not bargain with him again: "The purchase price of the clothes is 9,800 yuan, I will give you 12,000 yuan, and you will lose all your pants. 25,000 yuan, you give me all the clothes."
Lu Jiajie felt that it was too much: "20,000 yuan! 20,000 yuan also doubles my profit."
Excluding food, accommodation, transportation, and Ale's wages, this business made more than 10,000 yuan, and he decided to continue to go south to purchase goods after a few days of rest.
Lu Jiaxin bought all the goods of Lu Jiajie at one times the cost price, which was still nearly half cheaper than that of Brother Hu. No wonder many people are running to be dealers now, it's really too profitable. But she doesn't know how to do this business, it's too dangerous and not cost-effective.
Lu Jiaxin asked two people to help iron the clothes, and then taught Xiaoqiu how to match them. Xiaoqiu was amazed when she saw the clothes she matched: "Auntie, how can you be so good?"
This batch of clothes sold very well as soon as they were put into the store. The cost was 20,000, and it was sold for 46,000. After deducting the cost of labor and store, it made more than 24,000.
Lu Jiaxin's courses were quite tight, and she had to take care of the store's affairs. She was too busy to take care of many things.
This day, Lu Jiajie came over and said happily: "Jiaxin, Jiaxin, big brother got promoted, and he was promoted to the next level."
Lu Jiaxin was so happy: "Really? Who told you?"
Lu Jiajie smiled and said: "Didn't I make money? I called big brother and wanted to invite him and big sister-in-law to bring the children to our house for dinner. He told me. Jiaxin, big brother told me to bring the children to his house for dinner on Sunday, and I will pick you up then."
Promotion and salary increase are always worth celebrating. Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go with Xiaoqiu then."
It's not that Xue Mao and Xiao Xiaowairen can't attend, but someone has to stay to look after the store. Sunday is the best business day. He and Xiaoqiu are reluctant to close the store for a day and lose hundreds of dollars.
The next day at noon, Lu Jiaxin received a call from Lu Jiaguang. She smiled and said, "Fifth brother has already told me about your promotion. Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely go on Sunday."
Lu Jiaguang was silent for a while and said, "Jiaxin, don't come on Sunday. Next Sunday, your sister-in-law and I will buy vegetables and cook at your place."
Lu Jiaxin was stunned at first, but then she understood. She smiled and said, "Okay. Zhenzhen said she wanted to eat roasted whole lamb. I will buy a leg of lamb and we will make roasted lamb legs."
Lu Hongjun must have taken that woman with him, otherwise Big Brother wouldn't have said that. If she went, no one would be able to eat well. Getting promoted is a happy thing, and Big Brother's mood cannot be spoiled.
"Okay."
On Sunday, Lu Jiaxin was talking to Xiaoxiao in the yard after lunch, and Lu Jiajie pushed the door open. Qian Xiaoxiao has a high level of fighting power, so she doesn't even close the door at home during the day.
Lu Jiaxin looked at her watch: "It's only one and a half minutes, why are you here?"
Lu Jiajie sat down on the stool and said unhappily: "What are you eating? Fortunately you didn't go, otherwise I would be so angry. He actually took that woman and Zhao Siyi with him."
After that, he complained again: "Big brother and sister-in-law are really something. They even greeted me with a smile. If it were me, I would just kick her out. What the hell?"
Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "What will the neighbors think if you kick them out? That woman is not a thing, but she is still your elder now. Also, don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face. He has made great efforts for Big brother's promotion this time. Kicking that woman out is also not giving him face."
It would be stupid to do what Lu Jiajie said. She is not going to pursue a career in politics, and Lu Hongjun's connections will definitely be given to Lu Jiaguang. For the sake of her future, she can't turn against him. Money is a small matter. For people who pursue a career in politics, connections are the most important.
