The cosmetics aren't selling, stuck in the store, unable to bring in new products. It's always the old stock piling up, with some even expiring. In this vicious cycle, the store's earned funds can barely cover rent and workers' wages, and even restocking funds are difficult to come by.
Reaching this point, there's nothing left but to close down.
The issue is, their cosmetics store had previously signed a one-year contract with the manufacturer, requiring them to handle 20,000 worth of cosmetics each month, amounting to 240,000 by the end of the year.
Now, the store can't even make 500 a day. Over the past few years, they managed to save at most 100,000. After paying the workers' wages, they were left with even less, unable to repay that huge sum of 240,000.
With no way out, Li Dongnan and Zhang Yun had to confess the truth to the Li Family, asking them one by one for loaned money to pay off the debt.
