Transmigrated into a Parvenu's Ex-wife in the '90s

Chapter 299 The more they can sell, the higher their commissions. (1)



Shu Yan explained to him the reason that she was looking for him and Lao Hu went silent for quite a while.

“I am so sorry. I have referred two landlords to you and both times it ended up this way.” Lao Hu felt that this was definitely blemishes on his career. Never mind about the previous time, but he would make a point with this current landlord.

“What does that have to do with you? All I can say is that I am very unlucky and run into landlords like them one after another.” Shu Yan smiled. There were plenty of landlords out there like them. She had heard of them in the past. She just didn’t think she would run into them all.

“And your plan right now is to have people taut about how good businesses at the shop is. Why is that?” Lao Hu felt that the officials from the government returning empty-handed was a good lesson for the landlord and they wouldn’t be trying anything else at least for a little while.

“So they will take the shop back, of course.” Shu Yan lips curved upward some but did not elaborate further. “I’m counting on you.”

“Sure. I guarantee to you that I will take care of that nicely.” Lao Hu did not ask any further either and just agreed to it. This type of work was right up his ally.

That day, Yangyang, the daughter of the landlord, was on her way out to meet with some friends and, while she was waiting for the bus, two women in their 30s also arrived at the same bus stops one after another. Both of them with bags of various sizes in their hands, obviously returning from a shopping trip. She glanced over at them and saw the lettering “Yanni” printed on the bags. So these women came from Shu Yan’s shop?

A: “How much did you spend on your three sets of outfits?”

B: “Not that expensive. Just a tad over 200 yuan. They are so inexpensive during their promotional activities. These would have cost 300 ~ 400 yuan normally.”

A: “Yeah. My 4 sets only cost me 300 yuan. That’s so cheap. I am going to go tell my friends to have them come over quickly. All the pretty ones will be gone soon.”

B: “Right. I should tell my colleagues as well. They were going to come with me today but wasn’t able to make it after all. I wouldn’t have come by myself if it wasn’t for the promotional activities. But businesses there are always flourishing. Even the line to pay takes a while.”

Another woman with clothes in her hand came over at this point. “You went shopping at Yanni as well? Their businesses are so well. A shirt that I had my eyes on was sold out already.”

“Their clothes are pretty. And so cheap during promotional activities,” said A.

“I have heard of this Yanni place and been there myself. How much do you think they can make with their kind of business?” asked Yangyang with a smile.

A took a look at her. “Oh, that had never occurred to me before. But just the two of us had spent 500 yuan. The 10 plus people in line head of me all looked like they spent some 200 ~ 300 yuan each. Then there were more in line behind me. How much did you spend?” A asked C.

“I spent over 300 yuan,” replied C without even thinking.

“I am going to say that they can at least make 4,000 – 5,000 yuan of sales a day? I don’t know much of that is profit. The boss lady kept saying that she is losing money on these. I am sure she isn’t losing money on them but probably isn’t making too much from them either,” said B.

“Exactly. Everything is 30% - 40% off right now. It’s best to buy them when the seasons change,” said A.

The few of them continued to share their insights on shopping and even pulled out what they had bought to show each other.

When the bus came, they all got into it. Yangyang, watching them as they departed, couldn’t help but thought to herself. “200 yuan was cheap? These people are all fools.”

She had asked a friend of hers before. A piece of clothing selling for 50 yuan cost only a little over 10 yuan wholesale. 200 something yuan? Shu Yan was making at least over 100 yuan on them. 4,000 to 5,000 of sales a day meant she was making over 3,000 yuan. That’s 80,000 – 90,000 yuan a month. No way. She needed to go home and talk to her folks.
