Chapter 66: Stationery Store
He Rulan went home and discussed with He Rulei, do you want to take the risk and give it a try, or wait for job opportunities at home?
"Second sister, I want to give it a try, but it costs money to open a store, and my demobilization fee is only 3,000 yuan......" He Rulei learned in the casual conversation that He Rulan had just paid the housing reform fee and added a new baby, and there was no money in his hand, and his parents lived in the eldest sister's house, and the eldest sister had to bear the life of four people, which was not easy.
"Si'er, I've inquired, the rent is 3,000 yuan a year, there is a discount for the first year, and the rest depends on what business you want to do, Principal Mi said, you can't do business that violates education!"
Your second brother-in-law's brother and sister-in-law are selling children's clothes and making a lot of money. He Rulan helped her brother analyze.
"But I don't have any children, and I don't know what children like to wear now?" He Rulei was a little worried.
In the evening, He Rulan talked to Zhuge Huaizhi about this on the phone, "Why don't you open a stationery store?" Zhuge Huaizhi asked casually.
"Stationery store?" He Rulan was stunned, "yes, why didn't I think of it? Opening a stationery store at the school gate is the most suitable! The books, pencils, erasers, and various rulers, pencils, and diaries that students use every day are convenient to buy at the school gate, and they don't require too much capital." ”
"Lao Zhu, I really didn't expect you to really have a brain!" Since having a child, He Rulan directly called Zhuge Huaizhi "Lao Zhu", which made Zhuge Huaizhi cry and laugh, in response, Zhuge Huaizhi changed his mouth to He Rulan "Lao He!"
Once Wu Fengqiu accidentally heard the names of the two, and was so angry that she scolded them for being improper, and she was called "old" before she was thirty years old, where did she put her as a mother?
was so frightened that He Rulan stuck out her tongue behind her back, Zhuge Huaizhi didn't think so, and still called He Rulan "Lao He" behind his back, and even "Old Teacher He", but he restrained himself a little in front of Wu Fengqiu.
He Rulei revealed the second sister's thoughts to his parents, and by the way, he asked if his parents could support him, He Laohan was anxious when he heard it, "Can doing business be a trivial matter?
He's mother felt sorry for her son, but she couldn't come up with a few dollars, so she could only quietly wipe her tears, in the end, let He Ruxue know, pondered for a while, and felt that she should still give her younger brother this opportunity, and she couldn't eat at home for the rest of her life, right?
Although He Ruxue has a high salary, she can't afford to support a family of four, and sometimes she has to help her third sister in the countryside, and she has saved less than 20,000 yuan in her hand in a few years, and gave 10,000 yuan to He Rulei, and told him to work hard and not to live up to the expectations of the whole family.
The stationery store was approved by Principal Mi, and at the same time as several other small shops, signed a lease contract with the railway school for a period of three years, with annual payments.
He Rulan didn't have much money in his hands, so he could only help He Rulei buy shelves and counters, paint the storefront, and make signboards, the name was Rulei Stationery, and it cost one or two thousand to open on an auspicious day for the zodiac.
He Rulei became a small boss, don't mention the beauty in his heart, He Rulan told him to buy goods with high quality and low price, and he must not be greedy for fake and inferior goods, nor can he ask for a price, He Rulei agreed.
At the beginning, He Rulei really honestly entered some stationery brands with good reputation, but the purchase price of these brands was high, but the selling price was limited, and the price was unified in the city, and no one bought it if it was sold high.
After a month, He Rulei took stock, and he only earned 600 yuan a month after hard work, excluding rent and water and electricity bills, it was enough for a meal, He Rulei was a little unbalanced, which was too far from his idea of getting rich overnight!
When He Rulei went to the wholesale market for sports to buy, he found that the purchase price of some unknown brands of stationery was particularly cheap, almost half of that of good brands, or even lower.
He Rulei tried to get closer to some low-cost stationery, the price was slightly lower than that of well-known brands, and the effect was good at the beginning, and the profits far exceeded those of good brands.
But soon parents found that most of these cheap stationery were of poor quality, either the book was written in water, or the pencil was broken, and gradually stopped buying these low-cost stationery, and then went directly to He Rulei's stationery store to buy things.
He Rulan has to take care of the children while going to work, and she can't take care of He Rulei for a while, He Rulei has moved to the store since he had a store, everyone is busy with their own things, He Rulei has never looked for his sister, He Rulan thinks that everything is going well with him.
Until one day He Rulan passed by Rulei Stationery after work, went in to see his brother, there was also a stationery store on the west side of the gate, and He Rulan saw that all the students who went out and came in from outside the store, and there was an endless stream of customers.
Look at the Rulei stationery on the east side of the gate, it is deserted inside, only a few children are choosing stationery, the younger brother He Rulei is depressed, very impatient with the children, and finally only sells a piece of eraser, and only He Rulan and his brother are left in the store.
"Rulei, how did you make your business like this? The store opposite is full of people, you are so deserted here, have you summarized the reason?" He Rulan looked at He Rulei's broken can, and she was really a little anxious for him.
"Second sister, I may be a little unsuitable for business......" He Rulei has been like this since he was a child, he retreated when he encountered difficulties, and never actively tried to solve problems.
"Rulei, you are in your twenties, you can't retreat when you encounter difficulties, you have to find reasons from yourself, listen to other people's experiences, and observe how others do business, what you said at the beginning, the eldest sister gave you all the old books, and the whole family is looking forward to your success, but you ......"
"Okay, second sister, don't say it, it's annoying!" He Rulei looked impatient, "Hurry up and go to your mother-in-law's house to pick up Haoran, take care of yourself!"
"Yo he! you kid has a good temper!" saw Zhuge Huaizhi appear at the door of the store with Haoran in his arms, "Lao Zhu, why are you back?" He Rulan looked surprised.
"Today I will go back to Duanshang for a meeting, and then rest for two days, I want to kill my son! I will personally bring him back!" Zhuge Huaizhi raised Haoran high with his hand, and the little guy laughed excitedly.
"Don't let him get too excited, he will cry again at night!" He Rulan hurriedly picked up her son.
"Since you don't have any business, don't hold on, let's go! Go home! I'll fry two good dishes tonight, let's have a drink!" Zhuge Huaizhi patted He Rulei on the shoulder.
"Look at what you're used to!
"What do you have a drink, why do I think it's a Hongmen banquet?" He Rulei looked at Zhuge Huaizhi, for this second brother-in-law, he was a little indescribably afraid in addition to admiration, usually looking at him smiling, He Rulei never fought back when it came to reasoning, sometimes he felt that Zhuge Huaizhi was like a teacher.
"Hahaha! You kid is smarter now!" Zhuge Huaizhi laughed!
Full of love
