Chapter 57: The Trend Guide
Gu Bei was really tired, he got home yesterday, distributed all kinds of souvenirs he bought along the way, went out to find a big pool, took a comfortable bath, and went back to the house to sleep without even eating dinner after returning home, and slept until more than ten o'clock.
Before it was time to get off work, only the housewives in the compound were busy doing housework, and when they saw Gu Bei coming out of the house, they greeted each other.
At the end of this year, people are very simple-minded, and the busier they are, the more they represent that person has a future.
Those who have no interest are either wandering on the streets, or even if they have jobs, they are cheating and slippery, and they can get by.
After chatting with the neighbors' aunts and aunts, Gu Bei went to the kitchen, and there were still leftover steamed buns and porridge from the morning on the table.
I didn't eat yesterday's dinner or today's breakfast, and I'm hungry now, and I can't care about the cold things that have already cooled, and a gust of wind has swept the clouds, and I have eaten cleanly.
Director Yang Jie said that he was going to have a three-day holiday, and Gu Bei had nothing to do at home, thinking that he hadn't come back for more than a month, and the house in Baihua Hutong might be dirty, so he rode over.
When I arrived at the place, I opened the door and saw that the yard was full of dead branches and leaves that I didn't know where to blow, and the house was dirty.
You have to find a way, or you'll have to clean it up every once in a while, and it's not enough to toss.
Besides, if this house is not inhabited for a long time, it will not be very popular.
Renting?
Gu Bei is still not at ease, but if he moves over......
Let's not talk about whether the parents are willing or not, I can't explain the origin of this house alone!
Ride home.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the compound, I met Gu Nan and the three of them.
"You ......"
Gu Nan rarely comes back at noon, and the three families are all dual-income workers, so they can't prepare lunch for them.
Just as he was about to ask, Gu Bei suddenly remembered that today was Saturday.
The school now only holds half-day classes on Saturdays and is closed in the afternoon.
"Brother! What do you think? Is it good-looking? β
When Gu Nan saw Gu Bei, he immediately jumped up and down to him, and deliberately stretched his legs.
"See what?"
"Pants, newly bought, are they good-looking, tell you, this is called jeans, and now they are popular in the capital."
I wanted to show up with Gu Beixian yesterday, but Gu Bei fell asleep when she came back, and she didn't give her a chance.
Jeans?
Gu Bei was stunned when he heard this, and then looked carefully, not patronizing Nan, Ji Peijie and Liu Bei also each had a pair of jeans and a white shirt, looking like triplets.
Jeans are nothing unusual, the material is actually labor cloth, but the name has been changed.
It's just the style of this pants......
It looks familiar.
"What about you, isn't it good?"
"Good-looking, good-looking."
Gu Bei was perfunctory, and suddenly thought that Gu Nan had mentioned something just now.
"Nannan, you said this kind of pants, it's very popular in the capital now."
"Of course."
Gu Nan lowered his head and dusted off the non-existent dust on his pants, looking very cherished.
"This is from the south, and now the students in our class, regardless of men and women, are embarrassed to go out if they don't have a pair of jeans."
That's an exaggeration!
Gu Bei really thought that he would lead the trend, but he didn't expect that he could really cut the aesthetics of the current people just right.
Speaking of which, when these jeans were originally designed, there was nothing unusual, and even in the eyes of Gu Bei, a later generation, it was a little old-fashioned.
It's too trendy, and he doesn't dare to take it out!
Off-the-shoulder outfit, beggar suit, half of the ass balls. The miniskirt of the child.
Gu Bei dared to take it out, and no garment factory dared to take this kind of work, if it was put on the line, it would be directly filmed for a hooliganism, and the lightest would be immoral.
"Nannan, have you seen the third brother recently?"
Gu Bei can't wait to see Ma San'er now, and only he knows the specific situation best.
"No, I haven't seen him for a long time, do you have something to do with the third brother?"
The children in the compound, including Ji Peijie and Liu Bei, were a little afraid of Ma San'er, after all, their parents often whispered in their ears, and they couldn't have a good impression of Ma San'er.
But Gu Nan is different, in the two years when Gu Xiaowu and his wife were devolved, Ma San'er did not help their family less, but after they went to the countryside, the relationship gradually became estranged.
"Alright, you guys go in quickly, I'll go out again."
Gu Bei said that he was about to get in the car and was about to leave, but he was stopped by Gu Nan.
"Brother! Mom wasn't home, I ...... lunch."
Hey!
You little wit.
"Got it!"
Gu Bei had no choice but to take out a dollar from his pocket.
"Buy it yourself."
"Thank you, brother!"
Seeing the money, Gu Nan immediately laughed so much that he was about to bloom, and he didn't care about his brother, he grabbed the arms of the two friends and ran into the hospital.
When he went out just now, Gu Bei didn't care, after being reminded by Gu Nan, thinking about it carefully, it seems that he really met a lot of people wearing jeans, not only jeans, but also several other clothes he designed.
After walking for a month, Gu Bei didn't know what the business was like, and now he couldn't find Ma San'er, so Gu Bei simply rode to Xinjiekou.
Gu Bei had heard Ma San'er say before that most of the people who practice stalls now are concentrated in three places, either Shichahai, Xinjiekou, or Dashilar.
When I arrived at the place, there were really a lot of people who set up stalls here to do small business, and there were all kinds of things, especially the most people who sold clothing.
"Take a look, take a look, you can't buy a loss, you can't be fooled, I have the most popular clothing in the south this year!"
"Don't miss it when you pass by, it doesn't matter if it's a big girl or a young man, you look at it, jeans, bat shirt, you wear a girl who is more beautiful, a young man is more spiritual, wear it out on a blind date, I guarantee you."
It's really vernacular.
Gu Bei pushed the cart back and forth in the middle of the stalls, and almost every stall selling clothing could see the clothes and pants designed by him.
"It's cheaper, one for each of us."
"This female comrade, it's not to dismiss your face, it's really not much of a benefit, it's cheap for you, what should others do? This eldest brother has just paid the money, and he has to settle accounts with me, you look at this street, there is a price. β
Gu Beizheng was passing in front of a stall, and when he heard that there was a bargain, he also stopped.
All for one price?
"Comrade, how much is a pair of jeans?"
Seeing that the business came, the little boss also hurriedly greeted: "Look at you, the price is clearly marked, five yuan a piece, no counteroffer, if you sell too much, two will give you a pair of socks, pure cotton, wear without sweating." β
Chattering about this big set of business experience.
Five dollars a pair of jeans doesn't sound expensive at first glance, but how high is people's income level now?
A regular CCTV employee like Gu Bei, after becoming a regular employee, only 45 yuan a month, and there is a subsidy for occasional business trips, and it is only eight cents a day.
The only desirable thing is that the welfare is good, and a lot of things are sent during the New Year, rice and white noodles, and a box of apples was also sent last year, and when Gu Beituo came back, it also caused a sensation in the compound.
Therefore, it takes a lot of determination to spend five dollars to buy a pair of pants.
"Get me one."
Gu Bei said, reported the size, and the little boss rummaged through a pile of goods for a long time.
"For you, if it's not suitable, or if it's disabled, you can get it back and replace it."
Yes, it's a businessman.
Gu Bei paid, and then asked the price of several other clothes designed by him, all of which were five yuan.
This is the rhythm of the hair!
Before leaving for filming, Gu Bei had a chat with Ma San'er once, knowing the cost price of these clothes and pants, the garment factory that his sister-in-law Ge Nanfang helped contact was state-run, and the benefits were not good.
On average, the cost of these clothes is between five and two yuan a piece, and after removing the round-trip shipping costs, plus a part of the profits left for retailers, Gu Bei can earn almost two yuan for a piece of clothing.
One piece is two pieces.
If you really want to lead the trend, why wait if you don't send it!
took a turn around Xinjiekou, and then Gu Bei rode to Dashilar again, the situation there is similar, as long as it is a stall selling clothing, there is always a style designed by Gu Bei.
The price is also five yuan a piece, I think it was Ma San'er and Ma Zhu'er's idea, and the price was given to death.
Then he went to Shichahai for a turn, and Gu Bei went home, and when he got home, he had several more clothes and pants in his hand.
"What are you buying so much for?"
Li Sufen came back from work and was preparing the family's dinner, when she saw Gu Bei coming in with a stack of clothes and pants that had not been unpacked.
"These jeans are only five dollars a piece, how much do you make in a month? And what's the matter with this dress, you can't wear it? β
Gu Bei only bought himself a pair of pants, and the rest of the clothes were all women's, and he didn't design men's clothing at the beginning.
Fools know that clothes are the best way to make money for women, and the old men would rather spend their money on tobacco and alcohol, who has the spare money to buy clothes and put on a faΓ§ade!
"For Nannan, this is for you."
Gu Nan was doing her homework in the east, and when she heard that Gu Bei had bought something for her, she hurriedly ran out, and when she saw the clothes on the table, her eyes were shining.
She almost wore out her mouth in order to buy a pair of jeans, but in the end, Gu Xiaowu made a sacrifice and promised not to smoke for a month, which made Li Sufen nod.
At that time, she followed Ji Peijie and Liu Bei to Xinjiekou to buy pants, and when she saw the good-looking clothes on the stall, Gu Nan was also enthusiastic, but she also knew that buying a pair of jeans was already the bottom line of the old mother, and if there were other extravagant hopes, it was wishful thinking.
Originally, I was planning to wait for the day when Gu Bei would pay my salary, and try to see if I could get the curtain of my brother, but I didn't think that Gu Bei was so sensible, and before she could say it, she bought it all back.
"Brother ~~~~~~"
What do you mean, listening to this tone, you are so moved that you want to cry?
"Let's go back to the house and try it."
Gu Bei said, gave Gu Nan a look, the little girl understood, hugged the few clothes that belonged to her and went back to the house, and plugged in the door.
Li Sufen reacted and hurriedly chased after her.
"You open the door for me, don't open it, you keep one piece, let your brother return the rest, buy so much, his monthly salary is not enough."
Thorn ......
Li Sufen turned around and saw that Gu Bei had unwrapped the package of the dress she bought.
Tired.
The two little rabbit cubs want to rebel, and they can't control it.
