There are no professionals in decorating houses. Although Liu Yong is using masons as a cover, he did smuggling work before, but he has really learned how to be a mason.
Liu Yong couldn't help plastering walls, laying bricks, or even hanging a ceiling.
Xia Xiaolan let her own uncle not trust her, so it was even more troublesome to find another worker to communicate with. Anyway, I don't have much experience in decoration these days, so I have to explain it to those workers, so I might as well talk to her uncle.
Liu Yong was confused, and Xia Xiaolan talked to him slowly, and he probably understood what to do.
Including the hooks on the wall, some poles to be hung on the wall, how to place the hangers and clothes rails, Xia Xiaolan's "design drawing" has clearly expressed the layout of the entire store. Due to cost constraints, many ideas could not be realized. For example, in Xia Xiaolan's impression, fashion stores do not have wooden doors, and if they are not fully equipped with transparent glass, how can passers-by be attracted by the new styles in the store?
In high-end fashion stores, the indoor temperature is constant throughout the year. In summer, there will be no sticky sweat when trying on clothes, and in winter, you are not afraid of being frozen after taking off your coat. The mirror and lighting in front of the full-length mirror are also specially designed, which will improve your complexion and figure when you put on the clothes, and you can't help but want to spend money to buy the clothes.
Xia Xiaolan couldn't get such lighting, nor did she have such a professional designer.
She can only try her best to put on the best effect within the limited decoration funds.
"I estimated that even if we don't change the store for the time being, it will cost several thousand yuan after installation."
"How much money do you have now? I just paid 2,000 yuan for the rent."
It was 9,000 yuan before, Xia Xiaolan took 5,000 yuan of goods, and only 4,000 yuan was left in working capital. After deducting the rent given yesterday, there should be only 2,000 yuan left, but she also brought back her clothes for three or four days, and sold half of them. The goods under pressure were men's wool coats with an asking price of 140 yuan, and the other goods were paid with interest, and they collected more than 4,000 yuan of funds.
In other words, Xia Xiaolan still has more than 6,000 yuan in her hand.
She and Liu Yong estimated that the more than 6,000 yuan may be enough to decorate to achieve the desired effect.
Liu Yong thought about it for a long time, "The counters that are not needed by the National Cotton Factory can also be changed. The wood is good. Now it costs 150 yuan to ask a carpenter to build a three-door wardrobe This can save some money. money."
Nowadays, large wardrobes with three doors are popular for weddings, which are painted and chiselled, and a few pieces of glass are inlaid on it to make a rhombus pattern.
Xia Xiaolan felt that it was dirty, but it was the current trend.
She would not put such a cabinet in the store, and the few display cabinets left by the National Cotton Factory can be dismantled and used for old things.
With this little money in hand, it is enough for decoration. It will take at least a month for the shop to be installed. During this time, Xia Xiaolan will still set up a stall, and continue to use money to make money in order to accumulate more wealth. When the store is renovated, the money for the purchase will almost be enough again. In other words, this shop can't just make money and not spend, not to mention the business of the two partnerships, Xia Xiaolan can't use this capital at will, and usually spends money with Liu Fen - selling oil residue every day, and the money earned is used by her mother The daily expenses of the two women are more than enough.
Xia Xiaolan thought that her short-term goal now is to pay a dividend before the Chinese New Year.
Other stores are closed during the Chinese New Year, but this newly opened store is probably busy during the Chinese New Year.
Liu Yong and Xia Xiaolan talked for a long time, first took 2,000 yuan to start buying materials, and then asked a mason he knew before to help, and started to decorate the shop.
Xia Xiaolan received a telegram from Zhou Cheng.
"Xiaolan, the clothes, jujubes and tea have all been received. Wearing the duck down jacket you bought in the cold wind not only warms the body but also the heart. The jujube is very sweet. I don't want to be with you when I think it is your heart. Others share. But there are too many tea leaves, I am afraid it will be damp and spoiled, so I gave some to othersYangcheng Baizhu is the sister of his comrade-in-arms Bai Zhiyong. I have helped Bai Zhiyong before, and I trust his character. You can also trust, but you must be cautious, you have to continue to investigate Comrade BaizhuI miss you all the time, and look forward to seeing you again."
Telegrams are for people to read, unlike private letters that can be sealed.
Maybe so, Zhou Cheng tried his best to narrate in a serious tone in the telegram. However, everyone can see that this is a telegram sent to his lover. His hot emotions are already so strong that they overflow between the lines.
This kind of heat has infected Xia Xiaolan, love makes people feel young, and Xia Xiaolan feels that she is particularly energetic now.
Liu Yong was in charge of the decoration, and Xia Xiaolan couldn't be careless, and she had to pay close attention to the effect of the pretending. The renovation would cost several thousand or even tens of thousands, and the money was a little bit. Fortunately, it was not necessary to spend all of it immediately, and Xia Xiaolan was given time to move around.
theGotta figure out a way to sell those men's wool coats.
The quality is good, the style is also good, there is no reason to hold the goods in hand, Xia Xiaolan feels that she is not looking for the right place. Where are the rich people in the commercial city? The richest female workers belong to the National Cotton Factory, so her store will be opened on Erqi Road, which is very close to several National Cotton Factory and where the consumption power gathers.
The rich male employee must be the railway bureau.
Xia Xiaolan decided to change the place to set up a stall. Liu Yong¡¯s rented house was the dormitory of the Railway Bureau. The business was a railway hub in the Central Plains. The housing conditions in the bureau are a little better at least someone's house can be vacated and rented out.
Xia Xiaolan said to set up a stall in another place, but Li Fengmei was a little hesitant.
She lives in the family building now, and she only says that she is a relative of the original owner, and her neighbors also know that her family is self-employed. Those people don't talk about it, but they actually look down on the self-employed. Self-employed people come and go in the wind and rain, but the employees of the railway bureau have solid jobs. Li Fengmei and Liu Yong are not ashamed. She is afraid that other children in the yard will look down on Liu Zitao.
Liu Zitao had just transferred to the city, and it was the time when he was reshaping his three views. Children were also very sensitive. Li Fengmei herself was reluctant to wear expensive duck down jackets, but she did not treat her son badly. This kid still speaks with an Anqing accent. When he is not speaking, he looks like a local kid in Shangdu from the outside.
However, Xia Xiaolan did not expect this. Her identity as a village girl is disguised as the soul of an executive of a large company. How can she understand the sensitivity and cautiousness of rural people who have just entered the city?
It was only at night that Xia Xiaolan told her mother, and Liu Fen hesitated to express what was in her heart, that Xia Xiaolan woke up as if struck by lightning.
She knew that she would bring Liu Fen to see the world, but she never thought that her aunt Li Fengmei was in the same situation, and she couldn't ignore other people's scruples just because Li Fengmei was more outgoing than Liu Fen.
Xia Xiaolan changed her words the next day:
"Auntie, I think the goods are going a bit slow this time. Why don't we split the stall into two, and I'll be in charge of selling men's coats, and you sell the rest."
After Xia Xiaolan said this, Li Fengmei breathed a sigh of relief.
"I don't know if I can, don't think my aunt is stupid, I will learn slowly."
