Chapter 29: The God of Wealth

Four young girls with distinct styles became a beautiful sight.

It was believed that they would soon lead a new fashion trend.

There was no concept of “fashion clash” in this era. Basically, as long as someone wore something that looked good, everyone would immediately imitate it.

Until they sat down in the dormitory, He Xiaolan still felt like she was dreaming.

“Wasn’t the proprietress too nice? She gave us everything at cost?”

Li Fen was also happy. She looked at Xia Keqing, she was grateful to her for being able to buy such a beautiful outfit at such a cheap price.

Zhao Juan was very calm, “She also saw a profit opportunity. Besides, we bought the clothes at cost, the proprietress didn’t lose money either.”

Xia Keqing smiled and said, “Once our clothing studio opens, I’ll also give you cost price.”

He Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then she “puffed” out a laugh.

Yes, she was too naive. If it hadn’t been for Keqing’s good idea, the proprietress wouldn’t have given them cost price, and she wouldn’t have given them cost price every time.

But on second thought, they had gotten a great deal this time.

Having beautiful and cheap new clothes to wear, how could that not be a happy thing?

“I’m going out to promote now.”

She stood up and spun around, like a beautiful butterfly, quickly rushing out.

Li Fen sighed helplessly, “This girl!”

Zhao Juan’s gaze was a little envious.

After what happened, the relationship between the four roommates in the dormitory became closer again.

Wasn’t He Xiaolan the happiest girl in their dormitory?

After all, only a carefree girl who was protected by her parents could be so innocent and happy.

…

Just over an hour ago, Xia Keqing didn’t beat around the bush with Yu Hong, she directly proposed the way they would cooperate.

She pretended that Yu Hong was her distant relative, so she brought the students who asked her to style them to her shop. For every outfit sold, Yu Hong would pay Xia Keqing 10% of the selling price as a commission.

In the 1980s, an outfit cost less than ten yuan.

According to the profit rules of the future, the profit was at least half.

That is to say, an outfit that cost ten yuan had a profit of at least five yuan.

Yu Hong completely believed that Xia Keqing could help her sell clothes. To make money, she didn’t hesitate to give a commission, she agreed immediately.

Talk is cheap, they also signed a contract in duplicate.

They were just waiting for Xia Keqing to have time to bring people over.

As for Zhao Juan and the others, they all went out very consciously while Xia Keqing and Yu Hong were discussing the collaboration.

It was just that when it came to paying, Yu Hong insisted on not asking for more money.

The four outfits only cost a little over ten yuan in total.

He Xiaolan, who had the best family conditions in the entire dormitory, was directly stunned.

She used to buy clothes in department stores, and a casual outfit would cost over ten or twenty yuan.

If she came across a dress from Shanghai, it wasn’t uncommon for an outfit to cost over thirty yuan.

She rarely bought clothes in the market, but she wasn’t a stranger to it. Normally, an outfit would cost ten yuan, or eight yuan.

Now four outfits only cost a little over ten yuan, no wonder she was so happy.

After signing the contract with Yu Hong, Xia Keqing didn’t rest for a moment, because He Xiaolan soon brought someone over.

Coincidentally, the girl was wearing the same outfit as Zhao Juan, but her body proportions weren’t as good, so it didn’t look as good on her as it did on Zhao Juan.

She was puzzled.

But sometimes people are blind to things that are right in front of them, or they simply don’t want to doubt themselves.

Why does it look so good on her when it’s the same outfit, but it doesn’t look good on me?

How can people easily admit that they’re not good at something?

Since it wasn’t her problem, it must be the clothes’ problem.

The girl was called Xiao Yu, she had innocent and lively eyes, and it was clear that she was from a good family, just like He Xiaolan. Sure enough, she was very outgoing when she spoke, “Wow, are you Xiaolan’s roommate who knows how to dress well?”

She thought Zhao Juan was the “Xia Keqing” she was looking for.

Because she liked Zhao Juan’s style.

He Xiaolan said carelessly, “You got the wrong person, this is Zhao Juan.”

She pulled Xia Keqing’s arm, “This is Keqing!”

Xiao Yu didn’t mind at all, “Oops, I got the wrong person!”

She looked at Xia Keqing, her gaze was straightforward, “The clothes you styled are so beautiful, look at me, what kind of clothes would suit me?”

“You see, my clothes are similar to hers, right? But why do I feel like it doesn’t look as good on me?”

Xia Keqing was a little speechless.

To be fair, Xiao Yu looked good, she had fair skin and a slightly plump figure.

In this era, a girl who could still be slightly plump meant that her family was well-off, and her parents were willing to spend money on her.

But judging from the clothes she was wearing, her body proportions might not be very good.

Plus she was slightly plump, so she wasn’t suitable for Zhao Juan’s kind of “supermodel” style.

But Xiao Yu was a potential customer, she couldn’t be too blunt, “Okay, I’ll style you in an outfit that suits you better.”

Fortunately, Xiao Yu didn’t dwell on the issue, she immediately smiled, “Really? That’s great, are we going now?”

Xia Keqing glanced at the time, “It’s too late now, let’s go tomorrow, I don’t have classes tomorrow.”

Xiao Yu thought for a moment, “Okay, I’ll go back and check my schedule for tomorrow, I’ll come find you when I’m free.”

Then she immediately left in a hurry.

It was He Xiaolan who felt a little embarrassed, “She’s just like that, she’s actually a pretty good person.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll only bring people who are easy to get along with. I won’t bring those who are difficult to get along with to you.”

Xia Keqing smiled, “It’s okay.”

She really didn’t mind, after all, she was making money from Yu Hong, not directly from these people. Although the wool ultimately came from the sheep.

But did she have an obligation to work for free?

The next morning, Xia Keqing took Xiao Yu to Yu Hong’s shop. Xiao Yu liked Zhao Juan’s style, but her own conditions were limited, so she had to make the most of her strengths. Xia Keqing designed an outfit specifically for her based on her figure, elongating her leg lines.

After Xiao Yu changed into the clothes, her eyes lit up, “Is this really me? Oh my god!”

“Actually, I know I’m not suitable for your roommate’s style. Are my legs too short, and not thin enough, right?”

Xia Keqing smiled without saying anything.

See, fairies are all aware, they just don’t want to believe reality.

Now that she had a suitable outfit, the fairy looked beautiful, so the fairy was willing to believe that her original outfit wasn’t good-looking.

Xiao Yu was very generous, she bought several outfits in one go. According to the price of ten yuan per outfit, she spent over thirty yuan.

Xia Keqing looked at Xiao Yu differently.

She was practically her God of Wealth.

That day, with He Xiaolan’s introduction, Xia Keqing took several other girls to try on clothes. Yu Hong was so busy collecting money that her hands were numb. That day, Xia Keqing received her commission, a total of over thirty yuan.

Over thirty yuan a day, that would be over nine hundred yuan a month.

The average wage in this era was twenty to eighty yuan a month.

Sure enough, if you want to get rich, you have to do business.
