Episode 104
You can hang the wash later!
Who's here?
You have to talk to them!
Hurry! Hurry!
Nice to meet you. This is my card.
Ono-ya Merchandising?
We sell everything from clothing to furniture.
That big Ono-ya?
I'm Tachihara from the purchasing department.
And this is Nagano my assistant.
I'm Nagano.
What can I do for you?
I heard that you were selling children's clothes here.
Yes I do. Did I do something wrong?
No that's not it.
These are functional clothes and reasonable too.
The stitchings very good too!
This is just what we are looking for.
The needs are great
but we need better merchandise to sell.
What is available is too expensive.
Children can go through their clothes very fast.
Your products meet the consumer's economic needs too.
We would like to sell your line of clothes.
Sell them at your big store?
We will make it worth your while.
If that works we'll sell everything you make.
How much will you sell to us and at what price?
This is if you agree to deal with us.
Well?
This is the best deal you can hope for.
Thank you but I'll have to ask my husband.
Your husband asked us to come take a look.
Please discuss the price arrangements with him.
And we'll be back.
I'm so sorry. Thank you very much for coming.
Excuse us.
I'm sure Ryuzo was thinking of what's best for you
and the business. You couldn't ask for more.
You're upset with me?
I wanted to sell to the people directly.
But it's not selling.
I'm not just trying to make us money.
You did a good work but you're not selling well.
This morning you said you were giving up.
I don't want you to lose your self-confidence.
It's not your fault that they aren't selling.
People look for stores with a reputation.
They shop at stores with big names.
What doesn't sell here will sell at Ono-ya.
Yes but...
It's important for people to wear the clothes you make
then your value will be known.
And people will learn about you and our company.
Then people will trust your clothes and they'll sell.
That's how business is. So don't give up.
Ono-ya believes in your product.
Sell to them with confidence.
We will make less
but to sell through Ono-ya means a big success.
Let's just have the people wear our clothes.
We'll just take the long-range approach.
I can't have you giving up now.
I feel so empty...
All our merchandise is gone so it'll be boring for me now.
At least we'll get back all the money we spent.
Your husband isn't just thinking about the money.
He did what he did for your sake.
I know...
But there's no guarantee that the clothes will sell at Ono-ya.
They believe in you!
And they're professionals. Isn't that good enough?
I guess so.
- Welcome home. - I'm home.
Welcome home.
What are you doing?
Sewing diapers.
I'll make you tea.
Soon you won't have time to sew diapers.
I went over to look at Ono-ya.
It's Sunday and all the women were there buying up our clothes!
They have so many people shopping there.
Isn't that the phone?
Yes.
Has his hearing become poor?
No I wasn't paying much attention to the phone either.
Not after what you just told me.
Is it true? Our clothes are selling?
Yes. They've marked them up by 20%!
See it's just as I predicted.
We'll be very busy now.
I can't believe it. They didn't sell here at all.
You have to think about people's psychology.
That was from Ono-ya. Tachihara is coming over.
He is coming now?
Yes he sounded like he was in a big hurry.
- He's so pushy! - Don't be angry.
He probably needs more stock.
They will lose money if they run out.
I know we can sell more.
- In different sizes. - Let us think about it.
We'll help you get materials too.
Just keep your costs down.
We want to make casual wear for children.
That is what the people are looking for.
We want everyone to come shop at Ono-ya!
Have a drink.
It's bad for my baby.
Oh come on. It's time to celebrate!
You're being irresponsible!
We only have three sewing machines here.
We can't possibly turn out 20 outfits a day!
Do as much as you can!
You think
it's just a matter of getting more sewing machines and more people.
But we need good experienced people.
Don't worry. Just leave it to me.
Who knows how long we can keep going.
What if we expand and get no further business?
Just trust me!
I don't need a bigger business.
We just need enough business to keep us fed.
This isn't like you. Let's go big time!
I failed in business...
But thanks to you I can get back in again.
I will build our business into a big one!
We'll sell not just kids' clothes
but women's wear and school uniforms too!
Maybe even men's suits!
Ryuzo...
You showed me that I can do it!
- Gen. - Yes?
I have the best wife in all of Japan!
Just bear me a good healthy child.
Then I'll support you all.
- Gen! - Yes?
You'll have it easy too.
We'll make clothes for everyone!
That's my dream.
Ryuzo was making Oshin worry.
She knew life wasn't that easy.
