Chapter 15 Selling Shoes

Zhang Anmin drove the borrowed old ox, Chuxia and Liu sat on the ox cart, drove out the door with the ox cart, and set out towards the town.

The town they were going to was Shitou Town. It took five or six hours to drive a ox cart from Taohua Village, so the villagers of Taohua Village generally would not go there without any trouble. In the past, Shitou Town was just Shitou Village, and there were several villages like Taohua Village, but they were not very rich. Shitou Village was slightly richer than other villages, and it was located in the middle of several villages. Therefore, every day on the first or fifteenth day of the day, villagers in other villages would carry wild game from the mountains or things they made to trade. Over time, the economy of Shitou Village developed and formed a market. There were many shops in the village, and today it has developed into Shitou Town.

Early summer was in a good mood. She lay on the ox cart, looking at the blue sky, humming small songs, and the country roads were bumping, making her songs turbulently.

The ox cart walked in the morning light for several hours, and heard the noisy voices not far away. As soon as he looked up, Shitou Town arrived.

"Come down, come on," Liu pinched Chuxia's little face and got off the ox cart with a smile.

"Mom, is this Shitou Town?" Although I was expecting it, it seemed that there was still some difference from what I imagined, although it was much lively than Taohua Village.

"You don't remember? You and I have been together before."

"It's been too long, I've forgotten it."

Zhang Anmin went to settle the big yellow cow, while Chuxia followed Liu to Shitou Shoes. This is a shoe-selling shop in Shitou Town, and the shoes that Liu usually bought were basically sold to this shop.

"Hello, Manager Wang, I brought a few pairs of shoes this time." Liu entered the door, and there was a middle-aged fat man standing behind the counter and planning the accounts. He raised his head when he heard the sound.

After entering the store in early summer, I started to observe. Although the store is not big, there are many styles of shoes, including men's shoes, women's shoes, and children's shoes. There is only one guy in the store, who is busy cleaning at this moment.

"What shoes I made this time, bring them to me to see." The man called Manager Wang walked out from behind the counter.

Liu opened the package and found ten pairs of shoes, five pairs of men's shoes and five pairs of women's shoes. Manager Wang took out a pair of shoes and took a look, and then said to Liu's, "What price do you want this time?"

"I think it's the same as before, with twenty pennies per pair."

"The business is not easy to do now. I haven't sold out the shoes you brought last time. Just say that these women's shoes are too rustic. Now customers choose very well."

"But my shoes are very comfortable to wear..."

"Of course it's comfortable, but it also needs to look good. Otherwise, I will collect your shoes cheaper, so you won't take them back."

These twenty articles, except for labor costs and materials, actually have little profit. Liu thought about it and said, "Then how much do you pay?"

Manager Wang compared the gesture, "Fifteen-one pair, this price can't be higher."

Chu Xia heard it next to him and his eyes twitched. It was originally a pair of 20 cents, but only 200 cents were spent. This profiteer was fine, but he lost 50 cents at once. Isn’t this obviously a price reduction?

"Mom, let's go, I won't sell it anymore." Chuxia stepped forward and rolled up the package.

Liu was also unwilling to sell it at such a low price, but he asked one of the shoes he had bought before and said he would not accept them. He was worried that other stores would be the same, thinking about whether to sell them, Chuxia ran out and hurriedly grabbed her, "Chuxia..."

"Mom, listen to me, we won't sell it to him."

"You have thought about it, maybe no one else will offer you this price again." Seeing that the price was not successful, Manager Wang said to Liu, and Chuxia had already run out with her stuff in her arms.
