Zhang Dandan sneered and said, "Xiao... Sister Xiao Wan, why did you co over here?"
Lin Wan stared at the clothes and replied, "Why can’t I co here? Have you forgotten, the clothes you sold a few days ago all fell apart in just two days, completely unwearable. Really, I never thought you would dare to deceive your relatives." Lin Wan spoke with a tone of disappointnt tinged with anger. Her words successfully drew the attention of so people browsing the clothes, and upon hearing that the clothes fell apart in two days, a few of them hesitated and put the clothes back.
Zhang Dandan imdiately understood that Lin Wan was here to stir things up. "Cousin, when did I ever sell you clothes? Don’t cause trouble here, I’m busy."
"What? You’re denying it after the sale? The fifty clothes are still at my house. Are you trying to make dirty money? Life isn’t easy for your cousin’s family either; the kid is still young. You pleaded with to wholesale your clothes, just one yuan each. Now, in just two days, you’re leaving in the lurch. That’s fifty yuan, which is your cousin-in-law’s two-month salary. Now I’m left without clothes, and without money, how should we live? If you don’t refund today, believe it or not, I’ll call the police to teach you a lesson for being so heartless."
"Miss, those clothes really can’t be worn?" A custor who had just bought sothing chid in.
Lin Wan quickly jumped in, passionately saying, "Exactly, these clothes are knockoffs of the Wanyi brand. The fabric looks similar, but there’s a big difference. If anyone has water, rub it a bit and you’ll see."
"I have, I have, I brought a water bottle."
The "enthusiastic" Yin Peibai ca over with a bottle of water. "Comrade, let help you wet it and see."
"Alright, wholesaled at just one yuan, but sold to us with several yuan added, it’s too deceitful. Bringing ho clothes that can’t be worn makes them swindlers!" An older woman said this and took the clothes, rubbed them with water from Yin Peibai. Just as Lin Wan said, the wet part imdiately beca transparent, revealing the layer beneath. "Wow, it really is! Isn’t this tricking people? It’s too much, using the hard-earned money of us common people. I want a refund."
"Yes, comrade, lucky you ca in ti; otherwise, we would have surely wasted money today."
"Refund us now; I don’t want the clothes anymore." The angry woman threw the clothes back onto Zhang Dandan’s stall.
A few others who had also paid began clamoring for refunds.
"What are you doing? You washed the clothes yourself and now want to refund you? You think I’m a chump?" Seeing the money at risk, Zhang Dandan wasn’t willing to budge.
"Look at this, everyone! She wants to force us into buying, different before paying and after paying. Isn’t this forcing sales?" The nearby Su Ling intentionally spoke loudly.
"Yes, are you trying to force sales? If you don’t refund us today, we might have to call the police imdiately."
"I’ve already been swindled out of fifty yuan by her. Damn it, I’m her cousin! And she’s deceiving like this. Dandan, I beg you as your cousin, please return the fifty yuan to . That’s my baby’s formula money! If she doesn’t give the money today, I will definitely inform the police. Comrades, if she doesn’t refund you today, let’s go to the police station together." Lin Wan spoke emotionally, her voice quivering, successfully persuading everyone to nod along. "Right, if she doesn’t refund us, let’s go find the police imdiately."
"Comrade, I’ll help call the police for you. The station isn’t far from here." Yin Peibai said "enthusiastically".
"Thank you, comrade." Lin Wan gratefully nodded toward Yin Peibai.
"What... What are you doing? Who forced the sale? We don’t accept returns for clothes from our shop." Zhang Dandan, a teenager, however crafty, panicked in such a situation.
The young girl beside her dared not speak a single word.
"Don’t accept returns? You’re ruthless rchants, you didn’t say this when we bought them. The young girl beside you said if they don’t fit when worn, we can exchange them."
"No. No. No." The young girl hastily responded, worried it would implicate her, "I’m just a worker here, those things were told to by the owner. That’s how she introduces it to custors, which is why I said so."
"I didn’t say that," Zhang Dandan quickly denied.
"Refund quickly, or we’ll call the police, together it’s eighty or ninety yuan, right? Enough for a criminal case, right? Let such heartless people spend a few years in prison. With the current crackdown on gangs, her forcing sale behavior is no different from gang activity," Yin Peibai reminded everyone nearby.
The young girl was frightened, sweating, shaking her head, retreating, "I just work for her, I don’t know about this. I... I don’t want my salary." That said, she left Zhang Dandan behind and fled faster than a rabbit.
"Refund, refund, we’ll refund, won’t we?" Zhang Dandan beca timid, her arrogance visibly decreasing, her attitude improved a lot.
With trembling hands, she hurriedly refunded everyone their money. "My fifty," Lin Wan quickly stepped forward and said.
Perhaps Zhang Dandan was scared; hearing Lin Wan’s words, she chanically took out fifty yuan from her pocket and handed it to Lin Wan. By the ti Zhang Dandan realized it, Lin Wan had already pocketed the money.
"Vicious rchants, don’t ever be fooled by such clothes again. Warn your relatives and friends; you may not be as lucky to get your money back next ti," Su Ling reminded everyone nearby.
The comrades nodded in agreent, "Indeed, tomorrow at work, surely we should spread the word so others won’t be deceived."
"Yes, yes, when buying clothes, always check the quality, and don’t just go for cheap prices. The sa style doesn’t guarantee the sa quality."
"Exactly, keep your eyes peeled."
Those who hadn’t bought anything were lucky, those who did were even luckier to get their money back.
When the voices of conversation gradually died down, and the crowd dispersed, Zhang Dandan realized Lin Wan was nowhere to be seen.
Frustrated, she cried out loudly, "Lin Wan, damn it, return my money!" On the other side, Lin Wan and the others were secretly laughing.
"Xiao Wan, I didn’t expect you to have this skill; without any effort you swindled fifty yuan. With this talent, who would bother working hard?" Su Ling praised Lin Wan, giving her a thumbs up.
"It’s not entirely unjustified swindling. A few days ago, Zhang Dandan took twenty items from us without paying, so these just offset that."
"Xiao Wan, how could your family have such shaless relatives? We’ve made clothes for so long and never t such unreasonable workers like them before." Their usual tailoring collaborators were honest and dedicated, unlike Liang Weixiang’s mother and daughter.
Lin Wan sighed, "I also want to know how I could have such peculiar relatives. Earlier, while she wasn’t looking, I grabbed a few items. Tomorrow, we’ll take one to Sister Zhao and Director Wang as samples for custor comparison, and hang the rest in the shop."
"Yes, that’s a smart move. No one would spend several yuan to buy such clothes to wear at ho," Yin Peibai nodded.
"Today’s commotion might not have much effect. The consur crowd in S City is large, let’s maintain our original price and do comparative advertising. Ti will show them our quality," Lin Wan said.
"That’s too easy on them, daring to imitate our styles; who knows if they’re selling under our brand na?" Su Ling said.
"Don’t worry, within a month there will be repercussions for them. Imitation is inevitable, but if they use the sa style and material, we can sue them for copyright infringent."
"Xiao Wan, I didn’t know you understood these things, that’s impressive." Zhang Hanfu worked at the prosecutor’s office, and as the wife of soone in such a position, Yin Peibai had so knowledge, but not as extensively as Lin Wan, who seed to know a lot.
"Running a business requires so legal knowledge, otherwise you might unknowingly break the law and regret it later. I think you should all learn a bit more about it too; it’ll benefit us in the future."
