Chapter 380 China Reloaded (1/3)
According to what Mei Xiaoran said, Mei Zhonghua directly transformed the facade of the house into a three-story small western-style building. Although the interior design and decoration cost money, but to build such a three-story building, more consideration is in the future. It's a long-term investment, and it won't hurt the future.
It took ten days to complete the house.
Mei Xiaoran asked people to install glass mirrors on the wall, which has the effect of magnification and expansion. The visual effect of expanding the 1,500-sixty square storefront is two to three hundred meters.
That's not to mention, including the suspended ceiling, the designed gypsum decoration board, the installed lamps and the floor tiles, which were all installed in accordance with the most popular decoration materials at the time.
What convinced Mei Zhonghua the most was that Mei Xiaoran asked him to change the two store doors into one store door, seal the other store door and the south wall and install a glass window with a model in it, under the spotlight... You can see what clothes are sold in such a store when you walk on the street. Not only can they attract customers, they are also very transparent.
Originally, the two facades were changed to four. Mei Zhonghua was most worried about the poor light. The light on the two facades in the front must not be worried, but the light in the two rear facades must be dark... But the change is like the south wall. It's all clear glass, and there is still bad light. You don't need to turn on the light if there is enough light!
There is also the counter. Mei Xiaoran suggested that just leave a desk at the door for cash register. The counters are all abandoned, but hangers are placed in the middle of the store for hanging goods, so that the clothes are not only quite wide and not easy to wrinkle. It can also save space.
There is also a hollow wooden box with a height of forty centimeters, a width of 40 centimeters, and a length of about one meter under the window. You can open the red carpet and open the wooden box to deposit and withdraw the goods, and then put it on the red carpet, which is simple. Stool, also convenient for customers to sit down and rest
The kitchen, bathroom, and four simple fitting rooms are located on the back wall. It only wastes about one meter of depth, but it feels that it is more formal and higher-end than the public store. The staircase is designed next to it. The spiral staircase designed along the pillars can lead directly to the third floor without affecting the residents on the second floor, and the space is used to the maximum and reasonable.
Although there are two walls in this house
There is a glass window, but Mei Xiaoran asked to add a rolling shutter outside.
The house has been visited since the day it was built. Everyone wanted to see what the Zhonghua Store would look like after it was rebuilt. But when everyone saw this design, they all praised Mei Zhonghua’s ability to make his own The facade of the building is almost no worse than the public store... Although the area is definitely not that of a public store, it is already the largest private store in the county.
Under Mei Xiaoran's guidance, the shop was also being decorated in an orderly manner, and officially opened on the first day of the twelfth lunar month.
Five years later, when the Zhonghua Store opened again, it almost took away the limelight of the newly opened commercial building.
The renovated Chinese store looks more fashionable and upscale, and of course, it is more attractive.
Business is good, customers are about to squeeze their heads.
However, the renovated store will not be the same as before. As long as there are more customers, you still have to worry about stealing things. Now, as long as there is one sitting at the door and guarding the cash register, there is no fear that someone will be able to steal the clothes.
Now the store needs more salespersons. Two or three people can greet a good business before, but now it requires at least four people. But then again, it is normal for such a big store to have three or four salespersons.
These salespersons have also been trained in advance. Veterans and novices. In addition to the original Li Mingyue and Xiao Jinping, they also recruited two girls, one is Xiao Jinping’s sister, Xiao Yinping, and the other is Dongguan girl Li. Yan.
Regardless of such a big shop, there are four salespersons, but they can do business well. After all, the business at the end of the year is better than usual, and customers hardly bargain. As long as the clothes are tried, the price is about the same. You can buy it... Who doesn't want to wear new clothes for the New Year
Besides, the clothes sold in Zhonghua Store are definitely the most fashionable and high-end clothes in the county. From cotton-padded clothes to woolen coats, from leather clothes to duck down jackets, the clothes launched at the end of any year in the past few years are all Explosive. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, looking around, ten people are afraid that six or seven of them are wearing clothes sold by Zhonghua and Mingyun stores. It can be said that the Meijia store is leading the trend of the clothing industry in Kangping County.
In eighty years
At the beginning of the era, not only the clothing business, but the group of people who just started the business, can be said to have made money. If ordinary people can eat and eat, they will begin to pay attention to dressing and spiritual life.
Although this year is still in the midst of severe crackdowns and rectifications, the overall social climate has improved. The kind of petty thieves have almost disappeared, and the quality of the whole people has been an unprecedented improvement.
Just like Li Hongwei, after experiencing Qi Yao's slander, although he could not be a soldier, he made up his mind to do business honestly.
The commercial building is newly opened, with a lot of passengers, and of course the business is very good. Li Hongwei has made preparations in advance this year and has already prepared 600 tape recorders for sale... Although he has more capital this year, he still has to owe his debts. , After all, six hundred tape recorders cost almost 60,000 yuan. Last year, he asked his eldest brother-in-law for help. But this year, the eldest sister’s house will be built. He must be embarrassed to borrow money again.
However, after dealing with the wholesaler last year, they trusted him very much and asked him to take the tape recorder away, but the repayment period was also advanced. He asked him to pay the money before the 23rd year of the year. People are still going... Of course, Li Hongwei accepted it all at once. When it was around twenty-three, he settled the accounts and was almost able to sell the goods.
This 60,000 yuan is equivalent to owing more than 30,000 in debt, but he is really not worried about this. With last year's business, he will not do worse this year than last year, right
Within a few days of the twelfth lunar month, Ouyang Xun returned from the winter vacation.
He was surprised to see that the familiar Chinese store has completely changed its appearance, and the decoration is no worse than the store in the provincial capital!
But Ouyang Xun didn't know that Li Hongwei's shop had moved to the commercial building, so he could only go to the Zhonghua Store to find Li Mingyue to inquire. After inquiring, he went straight to the commercial building.
When he arrived at the counter on the first floor of the commercial building, Li Hongwei was selling tape recorders. He only saw a young man wearing a military green down jacket approaching and asked loudly, "Do you want to see the tape recorder or buy a tape?"
Ouyang Xun laughed, "I don't want tape recorders and tapes, I want to see you!"
Li Hongwei raised his head and laughed loudly, "Ouyang Xun, you know it is your kid when you hear the voice!"
