Chapter 1928: Flared Pants

In fact, there were already signs of it last year. The three sons and two daughters of the old Han family, except for Shen Long, an unemployed vagrant, Han Chunyan, Han Chunxue, and Han Chunsong all had their salaries raised; this year, 60% of the employees’ salaries rose , This year's Spring Festival, people rushed to buy new year's goods. After decades of suffering, people felt the joy brought by material satisfaction for the first time.

Li Chengtao and Cai Xiaoli are no exception, so Shen Long directly used this to start the topic, "Are you happy that your salary was raised last year?"

"Happy, why aren't you happy? My family went to cut off a few pieces of fat during the Chinese New Year. Thanks to the many people I know, I put it on others, and I can't buy it with... money!" Li Chengtao said. From time to time, he proudly gave Cai Xiaoli a look. Of course, he didn't forget Cai Xiaoli and Shen Long when he cut the fat, and he also cut a few pieces for them to send over.

"I'm happy, but now I can't find a place to spend money, and I have to queue up to buy things there. Many times you spend half a day in line, and when it's your turn, there is nothing. The bread in our factory often As soon as I gave it away, it was gone, and many people asked me to buy it through my relationship." Cai Xiaoli looked at Shen Long, "Chunming, have you figured out a way to make money?" She is also a restless girl, unwilling to be in the food industry The factory takes that dead wage.

"From an economic point of view, consumers' spending power is rising and their consumption desires are strong, but the market supply is insufficient, which is far from meeting consumers' needs. Therefore, as long as you can get the goods that are in short supply at this time, you can definitely make a lot of money. !" In fact, not only individual consumers, but also those factories and mines, as long as they can produce goods, there is absolutely no shortage of sales, but unfortunately, they are limited by the constraints of raw materials, so they have no way to open up production.

So now it is easier to make money by dumping raw materials, but doing this requires a way and risks. Shen Long doesn't want to get involved in this, so he plans to follow the path that many traversers have traveled.

He pointed to a young man wearing sunglasses and flared trousers on the street outside. Passers-by on both sides of the street saw him showing two completely different attitudes. Those who were a little older looked at him like a hooligan. The boys and girls in their twenties were full of envy when they saw him, and some even came up to ask him where he bought his sunglasses and flared pants.

The restlessness of this era started with flared trousers; a year before the appearance of these trousers, young people finally walked into the college entrance examination room, and realized the value of knowledge from the fair selection of talents; The world has become so colorful, but the clothes are still blue, black, gray, green these quiet colors.

How bell-bottom pants first caught the eyes of Chinese people is roughly related to two Japanese movies that are popular in China this year. One is "Looking Home". The reporter played by Kurihara Komaki has a handsome face and elegant temperament, and a pair of white bell-bottom pants Make her figure more graceful; the other is "Pursuit", Takakura Ken and Nakano Yoshiko not only became the earliest idols of young people, but also the sunglasses, sideburns, long hair and a pair of flared pants with a narrow top and a wide bottom in the film. , It became the fashion in the eyes of young people at that time.

Some people also say that this trend originated from the American TV series "The Man from the Atlantic Ocean". The image of Mike Harris wearing toad glasses and wide-leg jeans has influenced a group of people; but this TV series was introduced in the 1980s, and Now that flared trousers have appeared on the streets, it seems that the claims of "Manhunt" and "Wangxiang" are more reliable.

Regardless of whether it was because of that work, the appearance of flared trousers began to subvert the stereotyped perception of clothing by Chinese people for decades; it became the initial challenge for young people to the aesthetic habits of Chinese people, although there were only a very small number of challengers at the beginning.

This kind of trousers has a low waist and short crotch, wraps tightly around the buttocks, and the trouser legs are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, gradually opening from the knees down to form a trumpet shape, and some trousers can be as wide as a broom for sweeping the street. The most unbearable thing for the elderly is that regardless of gender, the trouser chains are all open in front; you must know that women's trousers have always been "opened on the right side" before, so some old people call this trousers "neither man nor woman". , an ominous thing that turns the world upside down.

Bell-bottom pants have become a symbol of individuality and unruly, and a symbol of fashion and trends. It finally liberated everyone from a single rigid clothing. Since then, various clothing has gradually entered the Chinese people's clothing Life.

"Chunming, you...can you get bell-bottom pants?" Li Chengtao was a little excited. It seemed that he had wanted to buy bell-bottom pants for a long time, "But these things are not easy to buy?"

"I don't know what's so good about these pants? But there are indeed many people who want to buy them. If you can get them, Chunming, you will definitely make a lot of money." Although Cai Xiaoli is not used to this kind of aesthetics, she is aware of the business opportunities.

"Of course it's not easy to buy in the capital, but when you arrive in Huadu, it's a lot to buy. I've inquired about it. If you ship clothes and trousers from Huadu, the profit is at least five times that of Toad Mirror. "Shen Long stretched out a slap, yes, the current profit is so terrible, the price of a pair of bell-bottom pants in the capital is worth a month's salary of an ordinary worker.

But despite this, they are still sought after by countless fashionable young people. In fact, this matter is easy to understand. Just look at those young people who cut their kidneys to buy apples in the future. It is shared by young people of all ages.

"Then... isn't that speculative? This thing can be done?" Li Chengtao was still a little worried.

"Didn't you see that there are street stalls and small restaurants on the street now? More and more educated youths have returned to the city in the past two years. The units in the capital can't accommodate so many people, so they can only make a living by themselves. So, as long as we are careful, there will be no major problems!" Shen Long has personally experienced this and is very familiar with it. Although there are still repeated policies, the general development trend will definitely not change.

"If the two of you are willing, we will do it together. Taozi, you and I can go to Huadu to buy goods. Xiaoli, you can wander around the capital, find a good place to set up a stall, and occupy it first. When Taozi and I get out of Huadu Come back, we will open." Shen Long made arrangements.

"Done... done! I will go to the factory tomorrow to ask for... leave. Anyway, there are too many people in the factory now, and there is not enough work. If I don't go, I can set aside an extra bonus!" Li Chengtao did not hesitate.

"Okay, I'll go there as soon as I get off work!" Cai Xiaoli also agreed.

"Come on, I wish us success!" The three hands folded together.
