PFC Chapter 143 Inventory
Chapter 143 Inventory
Inventory?
Isn't this just an off-season product?
The goods that the bosses found troublesome became rare treasures in Hua Lichu's eyes.
Since you can't sell them anyway, you might as well sell them to me at a lower price.
As for how much cheaper it will be, that depends on how much I'm willing to pay to get it.
Hua Lichu specially organized a meeting to bring together bosses who had a large inventory of the same products.
For example, she would gather together business owners who had a large number of leather coats and give them a rough price range that she felt was acceptable to buy them from.
Then, he called each of the shop owners over one by one and wrote down their selling prices on a piece of paper.
She'll take the lowest price from whoever offers the best deal.
The bosses were all shouting outside that they wanted to offer a uniformly high price so that everyone could make some money.
But when he got to Hua Lichu, looking at her delicate face that looked like it could be pinched to release water, and remembering that she had recently received a lot of other goods, he was afraid that she didn't have much money left and that if he asked for too high a price, she wouldn't buy his goods. So he quoted a price that was lower and lower than the last.
The leather coat I bought for 10 yuan can sell for over 100 yuan in a shopping mall.
The leather shoes I bought for 8 yuan can sell for tens of yuan in the mall.
A padded jacket for 3 yuan and underwear for 3 mao.
The jewelry vendors are even more outrageous, selling directly by weight.
Earrings that cost a mere 13 yuan per kilogram, hair clips that cost 10 yuan per kilogram...
Hua Lichu is getting more and more excited about the harvest.
After meeting Hua Zhigang, I discovered that he had several large trucks. I figured that renting one truck was no different than renting several.
Hua Lichu decided to fill all the trucks!
Once she'd finished selling at one stall, she'd go find goods elsewhere.
Wherever there is an industrial zone, there you will find Hua Lichu.
Every day I'm either looking for goods or on my way to warehouses or factories.
In the industrial zone where factories are clustered together, she asked each shop owner if they had any inventory or leftover stock.
Some shop owners sell, while others don't. Not only do they refuse to sell, but they also have a very bad attitude and deliberately release their dogs to bite people.
The most outrageous time was when Hua Lichu was chased by a dog for three blocks, and she almost lost her breath from running.
Not only did she run out of money, Hua Lichu also lost more than ten kilograms in just half a month.
The saddest thing is that after spending more than half a year trying to get her skin to lighten a bit, it got tanned again!
The hardships involved are simply indescribable in just a few words.
However, looking at the goods in the warehouse, Hua Lichu felt very satisfied.
She plans to sort out the slightly better quality items that can fetch a good price, pack them in nice packaging bags, and take them to the mall to sell.
But with so many goods, sorting them one by one would be too slow.
She gathered everyone together and, following an assembly line work model, began by sorting the leather coats.
Each leather coat was hung on identical hangers, packaged in bags specially chosen by Hua Lichu, and hung on the wall of the mall, looking particularly high-end!
Unless she says it, who would be able to tell that the clothes only cost 10 yuan each?
And these pants, after being properly cleaned, what's the difference between them and the pants sold in department store windows for tens of yuan a pair?
But they only cost 5 yuan.
The biggest advantage of inventory is that the purchase price is low, but the selling price can be set by her at will, right?
She's selling it at half the normal price, so why wouldn't she attract customers?
As it turns out, there's no need to wait for the mall to open.
Hua Lichu felt that Hua Zhigang had been a great help in this matter.
Although she had paid for the transportation, she had inquired and found that, under normal circumstances, renting a transportation team from Ningyue Prefecture to Tianyuan City would cost at least several hundred yuan.
But Hua Zhigang only charged her half the market price.
She insisted on giving it to him, but Hua Zhigang stubbornly refused to accept it, saying:
"I'm going back anyway, so helping you with this trip will cover the gas costs."
Therefore, after preparing the goods to be sold the next day, Hua Lichu specially took a well-packaged leather coat and thick cotton pants according to Hua Zhigang's body size and sent them over.
Not only Hua Zhigang, but Li Lian also received hers.
Li Lian was puzzled when she received the gift: "Isn't it hot now? Why did you send me winter clothes?"
Hua Lichu hadn't expected that Hua Zhigang hadn't told Li Lian anything, so she could only offer a simple explanation:
"I brought in a batch of off-season goods from Ningyue Prefecture this time, intending to sell them at a low price, so I sent you a set. Anyway, the clothes won't get damaged if you leave them, so you can keep them for now."
Li Lian happily accepted it, and that very evening she brought several guests to Hua Lichu.
Those people all came from relatively well-off families.
Unlike Li Lian, they don't have husbands who travel all year round and have limited exposure to fashionable styles.
The "out-of-season goods" that Hua Lichu had in her hands were actually trendy styles in Tahara City.
They also heard that it came from Ningyue Prefecture and was well-packaged, so they all started asking about the price.
Hua Lichu scratched her head: "Are you all my Aunt Lian's friends? To be honest, I'm selling off-season clothes here. Although they're off-season, the quality is still the same. If you like, a leather coat and a pair of pants will cost 129 yuan a set."
"Really?"
The aunties touched the leather coats in their hands with great affection, saying in disbelief.
Hua Lichu nodded firmly: "Really."
In less than half an hour, 5 sets of clothes were sold, earning 645 yuan, making a huge profit of 570 yuan!
The women, holding clothes in their hands, asked, "If I bring my friends, will the price be the same?"
Hua Lichu looked troubled: "Auntie, I'm going to sell these clothes on the first floor of the ** shopping mall tomorrow. The leather coat is 99, the pants are 45, and a set is 139. I'm only giving you 129 because of my Aunt Lian."
