Chapter 15 Wholesale Goods in Hangcheng City

Seeing some strapping men gathering around her, Li Aizhen suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Feeling the cold sweat on her palms, Xia Wan suddenly shouted towards the direction behind the driver.

"The police are here!"

This sudden shout instantly alarmed all the drivers.

Now! Xia Wan immediately pulled Li Aizhen and escaped from the crowd. She didn't stop and rushed to the bus stop quickly.

At this time, a bus, on whose body was a sign "Railway Station to Sijiqing", started and was ready to leave. When the bus driver saw a woman holding a girl running over from the rear-view mirror, he deliberately stepped on the brake and stopped the bus.

Xia Wan, along with Li Aizhen, rushed into the bus, panting.

"Thank you."

The driver nodded his head coolly as a response.

"If you want to go to Sijiqing, buy a ticket."

Xia Wan asked about the price and route, paid for the bus tickets for her and Li Aizhen, and politely inquired about the market distribution of Sijiqing. Before Xia Wan could talk more with the driver, the bus soon arrived at the destination.

She thanked the driver, got out of the bus, and went straight to the gate of a women's clothing market.

As soon as she entered the building, the lights were bright, and there was an endless stream of people everywhere. Everyone was carrying woven polypropylene bag of all sizes. There were many shops on both sides of the street, and piles of clothes were spread on the ground.

All kinds of loudspeakers and female voices sounded hither and thither.

"15 yuan is enough for every piece of clothes. Come and have a look. Pick one!"

"Try clothes right here! At least buy five pieces of clothes!"

"The most fashionable style for this autumn and winter..."

Xia Wan was not in a hurry to choose clothes. She carried the empty woven polypropylene bag and quietly followed behind a few buyers, carefully observing how they bargained with the landlady. Li Aizhen followed closely behind Xia Wan, trying to protect Xia Wan at any time and afraid that Xia Wan would be bullied for her being so young.

After learning secretly from a few buyers, Xia Wan obtained some bargaining skills.

After looking around all the stalls and ignoring the old-fashioned, low-quality, and cheap ones, Xia Wan chose three of them. There were not many people around these three stalls. Xia Wan could get the goods she wanted quickly. The price was great and the texture of the clothes was very good. The bosses were patient and gentle.

Xia Wan took Li Aizhen towards one of the stalls. The boss was communicating with a buyer. When he saw Xia Wan and her mother coming in, he greeted them gently.

"Choose whatever you like."

Xia Wan smiled and nodded.

"Okay."

She kept checking and choosing the clothes on the hangers and had a simply good impression on the stall owner.

Almost every wholesaler was shrewd. They looked down on ordinary people. Not to mention that after you entered their stores, asking about the price, they just ignored you; or if they found that you were just going to purchase very few goods from them, or not their regular customers, they even didn't show the clothes to you and directly drove you away. Their attitude would be extremely arrogant and supercilious.

At this time, the female stall owner kindly finished a business and sat down to rest and drink tea. Xia Wan took out a red thick sweater and politely asked for the price.

"Madam, how much is it if I am going to wholesale some? Can I buy five pieces this time?"

Five pieces were too small and Xia Wan knew it.

The female owner fiddled with her long hair and was not in a hurry to answer. She examined Xia Wan who was having a natural gesture and with a smile on her face, and then looked at Li Aizhen, who was timid and did not dare to speak. Then the owner said after letting out a chuckle.

"3 dollars for one piece, average size, and there are red, black, and yellow. Buy five pieces every time at least. But you can't try the clothes."

Xia Wan was mentally prepared to hear the owner's words, but the owner had specifically pointed out that they couldn't try on the clothes, which was also the rule of the whole clothing market. It seemed that the owner had seen through that Xia Wan was a green hand.

After realizing that, Xia Wan kept her aplomb and smiled sweetly.

"Then I'll buy 10 pieces."

The female owner was graceful but sultry. Her long hair was curly. She had red lipstick, red nails, and gorgeous makeup. She looked like a temptress. The owner continued to drink her tea and lazily pointed to a direction with her long finger.

"All the clothes are there. Pack what you want up yourself."

The price of a sweater for 3 dollars was not cheap. Xia Wan could buy it for 2 dollars in the other stalls, but Xia Wan could accept this price. This sweater was thick and soft, and the needlework was very great. The collar's design was also fantastic with colorful beads decorated on it. It was very fashionable, and all the women, from little girls to mature women, would like it.

Xia Wan directly chose the clothes from the black bags spreading on the ground one by one in the stall. After carefully checking the shape and quality of each clothes, she carefully put them into the woven polypropylene bag. When the woven polypropylene bag was filled. Xia Wan firmly clenched the bag and handed it to Li Aizhen to hold tightly.

After packing these sweaters, Xia Wan continued to pick clothes from the black bags. From a pile of crumpled clothes, Xia Wan took a fancy to some thin sweaters and a large bag of scarves.

Thin sweaters were suitable for cool weather. Tight and soft, these sweaters could match shirts or autumn clothes. During the winter, she could layer a thick coat over the sweater. There was no need to worry about selling this style of sweaters. So Xia Wan picked several styles before she gave up.

Xia Wan asked Li Aizhen to choose the scarves. The scarves in the bag were of good quality, and their colors were gorgeous and bold. Xia Wan directly bought all of them.

When Xia Wan was picking out clothes, people kept coming to shop in the store. Some were experienced buyers, and some were large buyers who bought dozens of models. After a bustling time in the store, Xia Wan filled her two big woven polypropylene bags with her well-selected clothes.

The goods had been packed. After bargaining for a while, Li Aizhen paid the bill.

After making a bargain and putting the money in her pocket, the boss gave Xia Wan and Li Aizhen a glass of water with a smile.

"Just call me Miss Hong. Come directly to my store next time. I'll give you a discount."

Xia Wan took a sip of the water and said in mind, "I bought clothes worth 600 yuan, but you gave me only a 5 yuan discount. You're really heinous." But she smiled and said,

"I also want to buy some male clothes. Miss Hong, do you have any recommendations?"
