As a result, after a circle, only the price of the leather jacket was fair.

A fur coat with a retail price of 100 yuan is sold at a wholesale price of 60 or 50.

Generally speaking, the profit of garment factories is about 10%, the profit of wholesalers in the primary wholesale market is also about 10%, and the rest are secondary and tertiary or retailers. Brand profits can reach up to more than 50%.

Another factor in this depends on the liquidity of the commodity. Now the transportation is not convenient, and the profit of clothing is naturally higher.

The small stall owners in the wholesale market are basically the same as Lin Xi's previous business methods when he made clothing. Hire several workers for batch processing.

Although the production capacity is limited, it is better to have a low cost and a cheap price.

"The two of us, the round-trip fare alone is hundreds of dollars."

Yang Chuan also has an account in his heart, even if the profit of a piece of clothing doubles, it will take dozens of pieces to return to the capital.

The most important thing is whether these fancy dresses can be popular, and if they can't be sold, they will be smashed.

"No matter what you do, you can't rush, since we're here in person, we don't care about seeing a few more."

In the afternoon, the two went to another market, and because of the small scale, the price was not as cheap as the previous one.

Just when Lin Xi was thinking about whether to talk to the previous one again, he happened to meet two people in front of a stall who were struggling to talk.

The stall owner is a local with a Yangcheng accent, and he is spoken by an English-speaking foreigner.

The foreigner will only say hello or no, and the stall owner will only say hello or no in simple English.

The two of them said their own words, and none of them could understand a word of their babbling.

If a foreigner can come to this place, it must be a big deal, but he can't understand it, seeing that the foreigner has shown an impatient expression, the stall owner is in a hurry.

Although Lin Xi's oral pronunciation is not authentic, his hearing is not bad, and after listening carefully for a while, he took two steps forward to help the two translate.

"Hello, how can I help you?" Lin Xi first asked the man in English if he needed help.

Hearing that she could speak English, the stall owner was overjoyed: "Thank God, comrade, please help me ask this foreigner what he wants to do, do you want to buy these clothes?" ”

The stall owner was carrying several pieces of clothing, all of which had been pointed out by foreign men.

"Don't worry, I'll help you ask." After appeasing the stall owner, Lin Xi turned his head and asked about the foreign man.

Soon she recounted the other party's intentions.

It turned out that the man felt that the clothes hung by the stall owner were very distinctive, and the embroidery on them was very beautiful in Chinese style, and he deliberately wanted to cooperate.

"Cooperation?" Hearing these two words, the stall owner lifted the railing in front of him and came out of the stall with his waist, and said anxiously to Lin Xi: "Can you help me ask how to cooperate?" ”

Then Lin Xi patiently translated for the two.

It turns out that the man also has a clothing company in the United States, and this time he came to China to find inspiration and partners.

According to the current national conditions, the main domestic cooperation model is 'three to one supplement', the so-called three to one supplement is the abbreviation of processing with supplied materials, assembly and sample processing and compensation trade.

The man meant that he wanted to provide the fabric for the stall owner to process.

Naturally, the stall owner who can cooperate with foreign businessmen is not wanted, but because he does not know foreign languages, there is no way to communicate further.

There are too few people who know foreign languages these years, and they will definitely not be able to find them for a while, so he can only plead with Lin Xi again: "Comrade, you are like this, you know English, you help me and this gentleman who serves what kind of gram to facilitate this business, I will not let you help in vain, you can tell you how much." ”

"Give the money and you'll be free, anyway, I don't have anything to do but raise my hands."

Lin Xi had never been in contact with things like signing contracts with foreign businessmen before, and this time was a good learning opportunity.

"My name is Zhang Bin, and seeing that you are not very old, you can call me Brother Zhang. It's not convenient to talk here, my factory is not far from here, let's go to my office to talk. ”

Lin Xi helped him translate it to Frank, and the other party gladly accepted.

Soon the four of them came to Zhang Bin's factory together.

In fact, it is said to be a factory, that is, a small workshop with more than a dozen people. The factory is a simple house built by one's own family.

Afraid that Frank would dislike it, Zhang Bin tried his best to introduce: "Don't look at the small number of people here, but the machine is from Japan, the most advanced jacquard machine, and the embroidery you saw before is produced by this machine." ”

With Zhang Bin's introduction, Lin Xi also said his words to Frank in English as they were.

Frank, who was a little disgusted at first, also showed a surprised expression when he saw the embroidery jacquard machine.

After understanding the general situation in the factory, several people sat down to discuss cooperation.

By the time the cooperation is finalized, the two sides will sign the contract, and it will be dark outside.

Zhang Bin had to invite Lin Xi and Yang Chuan to the restaurant for dinner no matter what.

The two had no choice but to agree.

"This is a local food specialty, you can try it."

Signing this big order today, after deducting his own costs, entrusted bank fees and freight and other labor payments, it is conservatively estimated that he can earn tens of thousands of yuan.

This can be completed so smoothly with Lin Xi's help.

At the dinner table, after a conversation, he learned that Lin Xi was here to buy the goods, and Zhang Bin said slightly apologetically: "I just took an order, otherwise I would be happy to help you with this favor." ”

There are only 100 costumes in total, and it won't take a few days to help her make them. It's just that now that Frank has signed a delivery time, he really lacks skills due to limited manpower.

Thinking of something, Zhang Bin suddenly raised his head: "If you can be trusted, I can help you introduce someone, he is in a similar situation to me, not only has his own stall, but also does wholesale." ”

Whoever of the two occasionally has an order in hand and is too busy, and the other party will also help to catch up. If he comes forward, the price must be the lowest.

Lin Xi didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain, no matter whether it was successful or not, I would like to thank him for his help.

Zhang Bin was very efficient, and the next day he took Lin Xi and Yang Chuan to his friend's workshop.

The scale is a little smaller than Zhang Bin's, with only a few sewing machines and five or six female workers.

"Don't look at the scale, but these people in my hands are very nimble, everything you have seen on the market, as long as you can say it, I will make it for you." Ou Qingwei said confidently.

"Besides, there is Brother Zhang, the price is absolutely fair."

Lin Xi said his request.

Washed cloth bell bottoms and plaid shirts, these two things have long been commonplace on the streets of Yangcheng, and Ou Qingwei even took two samples out.

Because of the popular style, he even saved the trouble of having the workers re-make the pattern.

In the end, the two sides traded at the price of nine yuan for bell bottoms and seven yuan for plaid shirts. In terms of quantity, 200 bell-bottoms and 200 plaid shirts.
