The woman walked over to sit across from Su Le and said with a smile, "May I know your last name, young lady?"

Su Le pulled out a piece of paper and wiped his mouth. "My last name is Su, and my given name is Le."

The woman was surprised and said, "We are so destined to be together. My last name is Xia and my name is Le."

Su Le was also surprised, "What a coincidence! Auntie must have been very pampered when she was little, right?"

Xia Le paused, "Miss Su, can you tell me about Jiaojiao?"

Su Le understood immediately and started talking to Xia Le about Xu Jiaojiao, telling her about Jiaojiao's life in the countryside. The two women really didn't pay attention to the time when they were chatting.

Li Zichen and Xu Sheng just got to know each other briefly and chatted for a while.

Xu Sheng next to him reminded Xia Le, "Wife, it's late, go to bed."

Xia Le hadn't talked enough, and they had already finished talking about Xu Jiaojiao's matter. Later, they kept talking about clothes, design, and styles.

Su Le also spoke appropriately, "Aunt Xia, could you please give me your address? We can write to each other next time."

Xia Le nodded reluctantly and wrote down his address to Su Le.

Li Zichen also saw the address next to Su Le. "It's near the Siheyuan in Jing City. You should meet soon."

Su Le nodded, put the address in the book, and lay down to sleep. Li Zichen covered her with a quilt and climbed upstairs to sleep.

As soon as the sun rises.

The four of them packed their things and got off the train together, parting ways at the station.

Li Zichen took Su Le to the department store to buy some gifts before going to the store. Su Le handed him his passbook and asked him to withdraw money first. Li Zichen withdrew 1,000 yuan and returned the passbook to Su Le.

Li Zichen showed Su Le several sets of clothes, but none of them looked as good as the two sets Su Le had worn before. "Wife, why do these clothes seem a little different from the ones you wore?"

Su Le pulled him out of the store and said, "I made it myself. The fit is the most important thing."

Li Zichen nodded.

The two salesmen behind him pooh-poohed, "You can't afford it, but you're still looking at it! Pah, poor bastard!"

Su Le glanced over coldly and pulled Li Zichen into the store next door. The two girls were standing at the door watching and chattering non-stop.

Su Le picked out twenty sets of clothes in a row and said to the salesperson, "I don't want these twenty pieces, pack up the rest."

The store was on the verge of bankruptcy. The middle-aged woman looked at Su Le in disbelief, "Ma'am, are you sure you want so much?"

Su Le nodded, "Yes."

The middle-aged woman hurried to the warehouse to find the store manager, who was a middle-aged uncle. "Ma'am, are you sure you want this?"

Su Le was a little impatient, "Hmm!"

The store manager noticed Su Le's impatience and asked the woman to pack up first. He then poured a cup of tea himself and said, "Ma'am, I can give you the lowest discount as a token of my gratitude."

Su Le looked at him puzzledly, "What thanks?"

The store manager sighed and said, "Hey, in the past three months, you've been the first customer to buy clothes. The other customers were taken away by the salesperson next door. The store is on the verge of closing."

Su Le glanced at the styles in the store. They were indeed not as attractive as those next to them. Moreover, the salesperson in the store must be the man's wife. "Does the store manager have his own clothing factory?"

The man nodded. "It's been out of production for over six months, considering its abandoned state. Ever since those two salesmen came here last year."

Su Le thought about his conversation with Xia Le and asked, "Is there a changing room?"

The man didn't understand what was going on, so he nodded and pointed to the small door panel in the corner.

Su Le carried a package in and selected several outfits from the space. She put on the first one, a white floral dress in a French tea break style, and walked over to the man. "I can try on three outfits. Take a look." After a round of changes, she changed into the second one, an apricot cardigan, a brown dress with a small slit, and the third one, a gentle knitted dress.

Finally, she changed back into her favorite knitted bottoming dress. "What do you think of these sets?" Su Le hung the clothes on the hanger next to her.

The man was so shocked that he couldn't speak, "This, this, this..." He walked forward to take a closer look.

Su Le took a sip of tea elegantly.

Li Zichen reminded the man next to him, "Ahem."

The man recovered from his shock and said, "These are styles I've never seen before. They're very bold and innovative." Then he looked at Su Le and said, "Are you planning to buy this store?"

Su Le originally just wanted to buy shares, but Li Zichen held her back and said, "Name your price for this store and the factory."

Li Zichen whispered to Su Le, "Let's buy it first, and then talk to those two people about buying shares. I heard that my aunt is the director of a cloth factory, so we can talk business with her and even hire this person as the store manager to do marketing. It's mutually beneficial!"

Su Le marveled at his business ability. He had only thought of investing and providing design drawings because he was afraid of trouble. However, this man perfectly utilized his personal connections, considered everything carefully, and killed two birds with one stone.

Oh no, three birds with one stone!

Su Le nodded and gave a thumbs up, "Great! Come work with me from now on!"

Li Zichen looked at her and smiled, "You just find it troublesome!"

Su Le lowered his head embarrassedly, his eyes rolling around.
