1980s Group-Pampering: Cannon-Fodder Real Young Lady Gets a Divorce and Becomes a Billionaire Chapter 159

Chapter 159 Is there a contact?

Lan Xinya is not interested in counter business.

She felt that her father could do the family business, and she didn't want to get involved at all.

Lan Weicheng could probably see what his child was thinking, so he didn't force it.

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

Lan Weicheng was very happy, and even had the idea that his own business would finally be succeeded by someone.

So the next day, after breakfast at home, Lan Weicheng got on his bicycle, took his daughter with him, and went to the place where his family did business—the counter of Huaxia Mall.

The location of Huaxia Shopping Mall is some distance from Lan's house. After more than 20 minutes, the father and daughter arrived at the Huaxia Shopping Mall with the best location and the most famous reputation in Kyoto.

Different from the clothing store, where several buildings are all selling clothes, the floor area of the store here is not so large. A six-storey building of nearly 1,000 square meters, both in appearance and decoration, is bigger than that of the clothing store. It looks a lot more upscale.

In the six-story building, each floor sells different types of things.

The first floor is divided into the east area and the west area. One side sells various desktop, hanging, ceiling fans, electric oven fans and other small appliances, and the other side sells bicycles and TV sets.

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

Half of the third floor sells all kinds of watches, as well as creams, eyebrow pencils, rouge, and lipsticks for women, and the other half sells leather shoes.

Because the floors above the third floor are too high and the traffic 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 selling electric fans, and two on the second floor selling radios, tapes, and stereos.

There is also a watch counter on the third floor, 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, the customers are mainly men.

This won't work~!

Lan Shu knows one thing very well, no matter what time it is, women'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 they are only sold as accessories.

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

After deducting the cost from the counter income, minus the counter rent, and the few counter sales staff hired, the monthly income will be about 3,000 to 4,000, and it will be a little more during the New Year's Eve.

But even so, Lan Shu felt that Lan Weicheng could do better in this business!

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

Lan Weicheng has already thought about this issue.

"Although the most profitable things are TV sets, washing machines, refrigerators and other big items, the sources of these businesses in the capital are basically in the hands of Gu Cheng. It is too difficult for outsiders to do so. With the current relationship between our family and Gu Cheng, I wouldn't think about it."

Lan Weicheng said, sighed, and then continued, "So I plan to stick to my old business. Among the counters in our family, the tape business is good, and I plan to add another counter."

Lan Weicheng hesitated a little while talking, and said other ideas.

"Although our watch business is quite good, but the cost is too high, one counter is enough, so maybe we can add another leather shoe counter."

Hearing Lan Weicheng's thoughts, Lan Shu shook her head slightly, "Dad, have you ever considered building a cosmetics counter? Those creams, eyebrow pencils, lipsticks, etc. are low in cost and high in profit, so you don't have to worry about selling them."

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's the matter? As long as you can make money, there is no distinction between men and women in business." Lan Shu said.

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

"Then..." He just raised his head hesitantly, when he heard his daughter say.

"Dad, if you really want to add counters, you can add cosmetics counters, and the recruiters must be good-looking, have good skin, and know how to make up."

“Selling goods with beautiful makeup every day will definitely attract many female customers to come to buy cosmetics.”

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

My daughter has already given him an idea, Lan Weicheng heard it, and thought it was a good idea.

so…

"Then let's do it like this! There will be no more leather shoe counters for the time being, and the next step is to sell cosmetics!" Lan Weicheng made a formal decision.

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

"Dad, if you want tapes to sell well, you must use the matching speakers, but the speakers are too big and expensive, and there are not many families using speakers now. If you want to sell more tapes, you must have Portable and affordable music listening device.”

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

This device is equipped with a buckle, which can be stuck on the belt around the waist, and the content in the tape can be played anytime and anywhere, so it is called a Walkman.

Although the former Lan Shu was not born in the 1980s, when she was in school, she read books on the history of modern domestic development.

It says that the Walkman was launched in the 1980s, but the earliest production was actually between the 1970s and 1980s.

That is to say, the Walkman was successfully invented about a year ago, but now for some reason, it has not been released for sale.

At least this kind of thing has never been heard in China.

This year is already 1981. Even if the Walkman is released later than the production time, it is almost time to appear.

Lan Shu thinks that Lan Weicheng sells stereos and tapes, so he should be able to get news about the Walkman.

That's why Lan Shu proposed, "Dad, have you heard about this small equipment for playing tapes?"

Lan Weicheng frowned slightly upon hearing this.

After what his daughter said, he remembered that he had indeed heard of such a thing. Where did he hear it?

"Yeah! Someone came to my counter a while ago and said that they could make a tape-playing device called a Walkman, which is a small device that you can hang on your body to listen to tapes."

Lan Weicheng recalled.

"The other party asked me if I was interested. If I wanted it, I would have to pay 3,000 yuan first. After two months, they would give me 60 small tape players. I thought they were empty-handed liars and drove them away. .”

Three thousand yuan costs sixty units, and one unit equals fifty yuan, which is not expensive.

But from Lan Weicheng's description of the other party, it should be that the other party does not have so many Walkmans in their hands, and they need money to produce them?
