"You designed it yourself? You want to make the clothes yourself and sell them to garment factories?" The boss was momentarily confused about what Su Ti meant.

The main problem is that this person is so unpredictable that he can't figure him out at all.

"No, I want to sell these designs to clothing factories, of course, there will be contracts." This time, Suti wasn't lying and told the truth.

“Sell designs? Those clothing factories all have their own designers, why would they hire someone from out of town?” The boss thought she was being delusional.

"Let's give it a try no matter what." Suti thought that if he couldn't sell them, he would buy the fabric and start making them in a small workshop himself.

If all else fails, she will cooperate with state-owned garment factories in mainland China; that will be her last resort.

The shopkeeper glanced at her clothes again, and finally pulled out a mobile phone with an antenna and made a call.

Suti stared wide-eyed at the thing. "So this is real? Hong Kong is truly Hong Kong."

The shop owner assumed Suti couldn't understand their language and wasn't wary of them. She listened as the shop owner said that her clothes had a very unique style.

Furthermore, his tone of voice clearly indicated that he was very familiar with the person on the other end of the phone.

"Come with me first, then we'll talk," the shop owner said to the two of them.

"Will Baichuan have enough time?" Suti didn't know how long it would take, and he was afraid that they wouldn't have enough time to get back.

"We have to be back before midnight." Li Baichuan checked the time; there were still more than two hours left.

"It'll be fine, we'll be there in about twenty minutes." The shop owner clearly knew the rules here.

Su Ti and Li Baichuan looked around, then boldly followed the people.

They only carried a few blueprints with them; the rest of their valuables were in their spatial storage.

At worst, we'll be cheated out of a few blueprints. More importantly, Lu Guoan is still there, so if anything happens, we can still find Brother Wei.

The stall owner is also a long-term resident here; you can tell by the size of his warehouse.

The man took them directly to a factory, which Suti judged from its appearance to be a small, privately owned factory.

The boss looked very young and didn't pay much attention to them, but the stall owner kept praising them.

They only became interested when they saw the clothes Suti was wearing.

Suti didn't have time to beat around the bush and directly took out the blueprints.

"Are you interested?" Suti handed him the blueprints and unfolded several sample garments he had brought.

The boss then took a serious look. Suti's designs were very bold and sexier than the clothes currently worn in Hong Kong.

The boss was young and quick to learn, and he felt there was a great market for him.

"How do you plan to sell these?" The boss knew this person was from the mainland and definitely couldn't stay to work.

"One price, three thousand yuan per drawing, here are ten." Suti originally planned to sign the contract for a percentage commission on each piece of clothing sold.

Even the smallest factory, once it starts selling, can generate many times more profit.

But now it seems completely unrealistic. Not only do they have no foothold here, but if they falsify accounts later and say they sold for so much money, there's nothing they can do.

Unless you have the ability to open a factory in the port city yourself, you can't rely on outsiders at all, so it's better to just pay a fixed price and save yourself the trouble.

Suti's drawings were only for the port city area. If they didn't work, she would go back and modify them to be more conservative before trying to make and sell them herself.

The shop owner hesitated for a moment; the price was a bit high, but he genuinely liked the designs.

Some are sexy, some are conservative, and some are just right. Each piece has its own beauty, reflecting the unique style of the designers in his factory.

"Okay, but I have one condition: these clothes can only be sold to us." After hesitating for a while, the man finally agreed.

He calculated his costs and was certain he could make it all back; he wouldn't lose money.

"Of course, but that only applies to Hong Kong, not the mainland." Su Ti thought for a moment and still mentioned it, because these clothes would definitely have to be modified if they were sold in the mainland.

It's not considered the same piece of clothing anymore, but it's still better to clarify.

“That’s fine.” The shop owner hadn’t originally planned to compete with the mainland. The mainland was so poor, who would buy these clothes?

The two finally signed the agreement, and the boss immediately had his secretary bring over the cash.

The boss was very honest and even prepared money for them from the mainland. Although there's a deduction now, the difference between the two sides isn't that much, but it saves them a lot of trouble.

Despite his inner surprise, Li Baichuan showed no outward expression. From the very beginning, he knew that his wife was far more capable than him.

They calmly accepted the money, counted it, and left. The stall owner who brought them there felt that these two had really opened his eyes today.

"If you can design your own clothes, why do you still need to buy them from me?" He was still thinking about how his clothes weren't making any money.

"This is a tip for your trouble." Suti gave the people a hundred yuan as a tip, since they had remembered the route and probably wouldn't come back to buy clothes from him next time.

Getting the goods from the factory should be cheaper, so Suti thought about it and gave some compensation.

The boss happily accepted the money, and he didn't care whether they brought them to the factory or not.

Anyway, he doesn't make money off them selling clothes, so they can buy wherever they want. He can't outmaneuver this guy.

When Li Baichuan and Su Ti returned, Lu Guoan was still waiting there.

The stall owner had someone deliver their goods to the dock and then left it to his own devices.

"The boat will be here soon, and we'll have to carry all this stuff ourselves when we go back." The boat fare for these clothes and such will be calculated by weight.

He brought a group of people, one group to take turns driving so they could rest along the way, and the other group to move these things.

It's not easy for one person to handle so much stuff.

"Don't worry, Brother Chuan, I have plenty of strength." Lu Guoan thought that he finally had a chance to use his strength.

He watched his brother and sister-in-law talking all the way ahead, without being able to help them at all.

When the boat arrived, Suti could see that it was noticeably lighter.

"They brought seafood with them when they came, and they felt lighter after they sold it all," Li Baichuan explained to his wife.

Jinwei and his group mainly export seafood; many of those people are fishermen, and there are relatively few who come to buy things like them.

Suti realized that this explained the fishy smell on the boat; she had initially thought it was the smell of the sea.

After the ship docked, Lu Guoan and Li Baichuan made several trips to carry the clothes onto the ship.

They found a clean place to put it. The clothes were light, but they took up quite a lot of space, and they needed quite a lot this time.

Lu Guoan felt that this was even more goods than what Brother Chuan brought back last time, and with the lipsticks and other items, he had spent quite a bit of money this time.

He must tell his dad when he gets back that he's taken a good look at the goods; these are probably all of Brother Chuan's savings.

He had no idea that his brother Chuan's family had made back their savings after just one trip.
