Chapter 989 Koi Heroine 53
Don’t underestimate a pair of insoles. People in this era like to wear insoles when wearing shoes, and the insoles in this era are all hand-embroidered. Some people can’t embroider, so they can only buy them. Pad.
A pair of insoles sell for 20 cents in the market.
Two cents are very valuable in this day and age.
One cent can buy twenty fruit candies, and two cents can buy half a catty of fruit candies.
A box of matchboxes costs two cents, and two cents can buy ten matchboxes.
Two cents can buy four or five eggs.
Two cents can buy five or six pounds of potatoes, beans, eggplants...

After the event, the store's business gradually stabilized. It sold fifty or sixty pairs of shoes almost every day, with a net profit of twenty yuan a day.
After the business stabilized, summer passed. In the dry and refreshing season of autumn, Yuanchun went to the market and bought ten kilograms of pears. He went home and cooked a large pot of pear soup. He put it in buckets and placed it at the door of the shoe store. I got two wooden bowls and a bucket of water.
Anyone passing by the shoe store can drink a bowl of pear soup for free.
For this reason, the shoe store has attracted a small wave of business.
The profit of the shoe store has also increased by 10%.
When the season for wearing socks arrived, Yuanchun took a dozen drawings of cotton shoes to the provincial capital. He first sold the drawings to the shoe factory and customized a batch of cotton shoes. I transferred to the sock factory and approved a batch of socks for sale in the store.
Unexpectedly, socks are more popular than shoes.
Li Erya said, "Good girl, many people have asked if our store sells gloves and scarves. There are quite a few people asking. I wonder if there are wholesale scarves and gloves in the provincial capital. Let's go in. Sell."
" Yes, I will batch some more wool to sell. Oh, by the way, Mom, I have also rented the two stores next door. If we open and expand the three stores together, we can sell more things." Li Erya said. Now I don’t worry about renting many stores, but I am afraid of losing money.
She said happily, "Then you batch the wool first. The weather is getting colder and colder, and there are more people selling dimes. I will give it to you before the cold weather arrives. Wear a sweater and pants with your dad.”
"Mom, give yourself a break, don't just think about me and my dad."
"I got it, good girl, your mom and I are willing to spend money now."
Li Erya tugged at the new clothes on his body and smiled so hard that the creases at the corners of his eyes could kill flies.
A few days later, the three stores were opened, and the store expanded. It no longer only sells shoes, but also sells various textiles, socks, scarves, gloves, hats, wool...
Store name Changed to another one, called Hongqi Store.
The name was chosen by Yao Xili. He also specially asked someone to make a eye-catching plaque with several bright red five-pointed stars on it. It was hung above the store door so that it could be seen from a distance.
The business in the store is all planned and planned by Yuanchun.
Yuan Chun is responsible for all matters such as finding goods, selecting goods, and purchasing goods, while Yao Xili and Li Erya are responsible for selling goods in the shop and collecting money.
Knowing that they were reluctant to eat out at noon every day, when Yuanchun opened the shop, he separated a small kitchen and bought a gas tank and a gas stove so that they could cook in the shop at noon.
The vegetables they cook are grown in their own yard. They are picked and washed in the morning. The couple takes them with them when they go to the store. Sometimes they don’t finish the vegetables at home, and they will give them to the neighbors in the store. .
Sometimes, when Yuanchun comes back from work outside, he will go to the store to eat. Sometimes when Yuanchun has nothing to do, he will go to the store to help look after the store.
A family of three has been busy with business in the store, and in the blink of an eye, the Chinese New Year is here.
Because they were rich, the first year Yuanchun, Yao Xili and Li Erya spent together was quite prosperous. All three members of the family bought new clothes, put on new cotton shoes, put on new hats, and even I cooked a large table of delicious dishes including chicken, duck, and fish.
