Chapter 42 Cultural Shirts

In order to save money and purchase more, he and his companions brought the cooked and dried noodles. They soaked them in water when they were hungry on the road. They had no strength at all when they were eating until the end. However, everyone endured their hunger and fatigue, and got off the boat and rushed to the market to select goods.

At that time, the popular clothing on TV could be visited Qinwan in about a week, and if there were any new styles in Shanghai, you could be visited various stalls within 3 days.

In the 1990s, Huating Road clothing market was famous for its cheap and beautiful goods and unique style. At this time, Huating Road market once became the leader of the individual clothing market in Shanghai with its unique geographical location and agile and fast market reaction, and became a "bridgehead" for leading young people in Shanghai to popular clothing.

"It's here." Lu Xuguang is more familiar with this place than his mother-in-law's house.

"Brother, I'm familiar with this place too." Qin Nan just kept his brother's arm on his shoulder and stopped letting go.

Huating Road Wholesale Market and Wujiang Road Food Street are probably the deepest memories of this city by foreign college students in the 1990s.

The road is lined with simple tent-style shops, small stalls with old clothes of various styles, clothes made by private tailors, and accessories. There seems to be a smell of unknown nationality floating deep in the market.

"Don't talk with me. You can walk along like a mountain. Don't let others see that you are a newbie." Lu Xuguang kept instructing.

"This time is still good, no matter how late it is, it will be closed." He raised his hand to look at his watch.

When purchasing goods at the wholesale market, you need to pay attention to the departure time. Try to go early in the morning. The wholesale market usually opens at four or five in the morning and closes at 3 pm. There are the most people at noon. It will be much easier to watch the consignee when there are fewer people. The boss will not be impatient to negotiate prices with you because there are too many people and cannot handle it.

Lu Xuguang took the lead and walked to a store with a snakeskin bag on his back. "Boss, Qin Wanlu's big head, cultural shirt, how much does it cost per pound?"

"Packaging or wholesale?" The boss was a small man, looking at Qin Wan's big head expressionlessly.

Each industry has its own rules, and there are some jargon rules that you must learn.

For example, there is jargon in the wholesale market. The wholesale store owner asks you whether you are "packing" or "wholesale". Those who have never been to the wholesale market will be confused and don't know the difference.

In fact, "packaging" means to buy more than six colors for one kind of goods, and "wholesale" means to buy more than two colors. In small shop business, it is generally only "wholesale", which is more cost-effective.

"Pack up." Lu Xuguang glanced at Qin Dong, "Give me a little cheaper, I want much more."

"How much can you ask for?" the little man smiled, "How much can you send out at a time with your body?"

"This time, you really need to do a lot, but you have to do a favor. We want the original version. You have to print our patterns and our words on it." Lu Xuguang took out a piece of paper and handed it to the little one.

The little man looked up at the pattern and looked at them again, "Okay, get the goods in three days."

"Two days." Qin Dong said immediately.

"Two days are fine. For the sake of big heads, how much goods do you want?" asked the little man.

"How much does it cost per pound?" Lu Xuguang interrupted him.

"It costs more, pack twelve per pound, and less, fourteen per pound." The little man lit a cigarette.

"I want 50,000 yuan." Qin Dong stretched out five fingers.

The small man's ashes immediately burned his feet, "Fifty thousand?"

"For 50,000 yuan, get the goods the day after tomorrow, give us nine yuan per pound..."
