Lan Xinya is not interested in the business of the counter.

She thinks that her father is in the family's business, and she doesn't want to get involved at all.

Lan Weicheng could probably see his child's thoughts, so he didn't force it.

This time Lan Shu went home to live, he just mentioned it to Lan Shu, and he got Lan Shu's consent.

Lan Weicheng was very happy, and even had the idea that his own business would finally have a successor.

So the next day, after Lan Weicheng finished breakfast at home, he rode his bicycle and took his daughter to the counter of Huaxia Shopping Mall, where his family did business.

The location of Huaxia Mall is some distance from the Lan family, and after more than 20 minutes, the father and daughter arrived at the Huaxia Mall, which is the best and most famous in Kyoto.

Different from the clothing mall, several buildings are all selling clothing, the shopping mall here covers an area is not so large, a six-story building of nearly 1,000 square meters, whether it is the appearance or decoration, it looks much more upscale than the clothing mall.

Each floor of the six-storey building sells a different type of stuff.

The first floor is divided into the east and west areas, and on one side are all kinds of small household appliances such as desktop, hanging and ceiling electric fans, electric fans, etc., and on the other side are bicycles and televisions.

The second floor is also zoned and sells washing machines, refrigerators, radios, tapes, stereos, and the like.

Half of the third floor sells all kinds of watches, and women's cream, eyebrow pencils, rouge, and lipsticks, and the other half sells leather shoes.

Above the third floor, because the floors are too high and the flow of customers is small, they basically sell relatively cheap household goods, such as pots and pans, tables, chairs, benches, brooms, dustpans and the like.

Lan Weicheng has six counters in the mall, one on the first floor that sells electric fans, and two counters on the second floor that sells radios, tapes, and stereos.

There is also a counter on the third floor to buy watches, and the last two counters sell leather shoes.

Lan Shu followed Lan Weicheng around the second and third floors, and found that the scope of his business was dominated by men.

This doesn't work~!

Lan Shu knows one thing very well, no matter when, a woman's money will be the best to earn!

So 80% of her clothing factory is women's clothing, and men's clothing has few styles and quantities, and is only sold as a match.

After learning about the monthly income of several counters, Lan Shu made a rough calculation in her heart.

After deducting the cost of the counter income, and then subtracting the counter rent, and the hired counter sales staff, there will be about 3,000 to 4,000 yuan per month, and by the time of the New Year, there will be a little more.

But even so, Lan Shu felt that Lan Weicheng's business could be better!

"Dad, didn't you say you were going to add more counters? What are you going to sell? Lan Shu asked.

Lan Weicheng has already thought about this problem.

"Although the most profitable ones are large items such as TVs, washing machines, and refrigerators, the supply of these businesses in Kyoto is basically in Gu Cheng's hands, and it is too difficult for outsiders to do it, with the current relationship between our family and Gu Cheng, I will not consider it."

Lan Weicheng said, sighed, and continued, "So I plan to do my old job, among our counters, the business of tapes is good, and I am ready to add another counter." ”

Saying that, Lan Weicheng hesitated a little and said other ideas.

"Although the business of our watches is also very good, the cost price is too high, and one counter is enough, so the leather shoe counter may be able to add another one."

Hearing Lan Weicheng's thoughts, Lan Shu shook her head slightly, "Dad, you haven't considered being a cosmetics counter?" Those creams, eyebrow pencils, lipsticks and the like have low costs and high profits, and they don't have to worry about selling. ”

As soon as Lan Shu finished speaking, she heard Lan Weicheng's slightly surprised answer, "I'm a male boss who sells women's things......"

"So what? As long as you can make money, you can do business regardless of gender. Lan Shu said.

Lan Weicheng thinks about it, and this is indeed the reason.

"That's ......," he said as he looked up with a slight hesitation, when he heard his daughter say.

"Dad, if you really want to increase the counter, increase the cosmetics counter, and the clerk must be good-looking, have good skin, and know how to put on makeup."

"Selling with beautiful makeup every day will definitely attract a lot of female customers to buy cosmetics."

After speaking, Lan Shu added, "The salary of such a beautiful teller is slightly higher than the normal salary, and on the day of work, I will give her a set of cosmetics and let her put on makeup every day, I believe it is not difficult to recruit people." ”

His daughter had already given him an idea, and Lan Weicheng listened to it and thought it was a good idea.

So......

"That's it! The counter of leather shoes will not be increased for the time being, and we will sell cosmetics in the next step! Lan Weicheng officially decided.

Lan Shu nodded, and then had some thoughts about Lan Weicheng's decision to open the tape counter.

"Dad, if you want the tape to sell well, you must use the matching audio, but the audio is too big, the price is high, there are not many families who use the audio now, if you want to sell more tapes, then you must have lightweight, and affordable listening equipment."

Lan Shu thought of the Walkman, a small broadcasting device that could be plugged into a cassette to play songs.

This kind of device is installed with a buckle, which can be attached to the belt around the waist, and the content of the tape can be played anytime and anywhere, so it is called a Walkman.

Although Lan Shu was not born in the 80s, when she was in school, she had read books on the history of modern domestic development.

It says that the Walkman was introduced in the eighties, and the earliest production was actually in the seventies and nineties and eighties.

In other words, the Walkman was invented about a year ago, but now for unknown reasons, it is not on the market.

At least no such thing has been heard in the country.

It's 1981 this year, and it's almost time for the Walkman to come out, even if it comes out later than it was produced.

Lan Shu felt that Lan Weicheng was selling audio and cassette tapes, and he should be able to inquire about the news of the Walkman.

That's why Lan Shu proposed, "Dad, have you ever heard of this kind of small equipment and machine for playing tapes?" ”

When Lan Weicheng heard this, he frowned slightly.

After his daughter said this, he remembered that he seemed to have heard of such a thing, where did he hear it?

"That's right! Somebody came to my counter and said that they were able to make a cassette playback device called a Walkman, which was small enough to hang on to listen to tapes. ”

Lan Weicheng recalled.

"The other party asked me if I was interested, and if I wanted it, I needed to pay 3,000 yuan first, and in two months he would give me 60 small cassette players, and I drove them away as if they were liars with empty gloves and white wolves."

Three thousand yuan for sixty units, one is equal to fifty yuan, which is not expensive.

But listening to Lan Weicheng's description of the other party, it should be that the other party does not have so many walkmans in his hands, and he needs money to produce?

If that's the case......

"Dad, do you have their contact information?" Lan Shu asked.
