Fortunately, with Gu Bei's move south, he successfully negotiated a batch of sewing machines in Guangzhou.

However, the sewing machine factory didn't have enough stock, so the factory worked overtime and finally managed to transport the sewing machines back to Beijing just as the garment factory was being renovated.

Moreover, the sewing machine that was brought back was different from the one Lin Qing used before. Lin Qing used a foot-operated sewing machine before, but this time she bought an electric sewing machine.

The 200 electric sewing machines were successfully moved into the garment factory workshop on the same day they were delivered, and all kinds of fabrics and other raw materials for making clothes were successfully put into the warehouse, ready to start production as soon as the employees arrived.

On the day Lin Qing moved the machines, Zhao Aiguo, having somehow heard the news, also came to the garment factory.

Lin Qing stood in the garment factory workshop, looking at the rows of brand-new electric sewing machines and neatly stacked fabrics, a satisfied smile on her face.

She turned to Zhao Aiguo beside her and said, "Factory Director Zhao, everything is ready. We're just waiting for the employees to come back and start work."

Zhao Aiguo nodded and exclaimed, "Boss Lin, your efficiency is truly amazing! From buying the factory to renovations and getting the equipment in place, it only took less than a month. If it were someone else, it would probably take half a year to complete this."

Lin Qing smiled and said, "This is all thanks to everyone's help. The textile factory was already quite good, and I didn't have to make many changes, which made the whole process much smoother."

Zhao Aiguo waved his hand: "Boss Lin, you're too modest. It's already quite impressive that you were able to get the machine in such a short time."

"Hehe... luck... it's just that the sewing machine factory happened to have a batch of goods, otherwise it really wouldn't have been possible to be so fast."

Lin Qing couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. She had originally planned to just make a show of it and then place an order on Taobao, but she didn't expect that Gu Bei would actually buy the goods, and it was even an electric sewing machine.

According to Gu Bei, this batch of goods was originally ordered by someone else, but they changed their minds and the factory was worried. When they heard that Gu Bei wanted to buy it, they not only lowered the price, but also worked overtime to produce some more, managing to gather two hundred units.

A few days later, the garment factory officially started operations. The employees returned to the factory one after another, and everyone was very excited to see the brand-new workshops and electric sewing machines.

After a simple ribbon-cutting ceremony, Lin Qing gave a speech, first encouraging everyone to work hard and strive to produce high-quality clothing.

Then the original 350 employees of the textile factory were divided into day shifts and night shifts.

He then transferred his original employees over, making Wang Sufeng the factory manager, and Ge Hong and Wang Yun the workshop directors for the day and night shifts, respectively. He also promoted some outstanding veteran employees to group leaders.

In addition, Lin Qing also changed the garment-making process to an assembly line style. Employees no longer make a complete garment, but only perform a certain process. The wages are still mainly based on piece-rate wages.

With the guidance of the team leader and experienced employees, the other employees quickly got the hang of it after a simple training session.

In fact, most people can sew clothes, but there are some differences between foot-operated sewing machines and electric sewing machines. Everyone needs to get used to the machine, but once you get used to it, you can learn to use it much faster.

With Lin Qing's high salary, everyone worked like they were on steroids, neglecting to eat or sleep. They even ate hastily before returning to work, and some people didn't even go to meals, just to get more work done.

Besides the production workshop, another thing that Lin Qing was very interested in was the clothing factory's canteen.

Lin Qing not only renovated the clothing factory's canteen, but also hired a night shift cook to make the canteen open 24 hours a day.

Workers can eat delicious meals for far less than they would outside. Some workers are so used to saving money that they even buy their meals at the factory to take home.

After a few days of getting used to it, the employees gradually became familiar with operating the electric sewing machines, and the number of finished products in the warehouse increased rapidly.

With the opening of Linqing Garment Factory, several franchisees were introduced.

The booming business of the mobile phone and garment factories continued. With the arrival of January, Lin Qing's elder brother, Lin Hongzhi, along with his sister-in-law Wang Xiuying and son Wang Wenbin, were transferred back to Beijing from the Tibetan region.

On the day Lin Hongzhi returned, Dong Xiulan still received Lin Hongzhi's family at Houhai, but this time the location for receiving Lin Hongzhi's family changed to the home of her second brother, Lin Changyuan.

Meanwhile, the courtyard house next door, which belonged to the eldest brother Lin Hongzhi, was also well-managed by Dong Xiulan.

After a hearty meal, Lin Hongzhi took his sister-in-law, Wang Xiuying, whose eyes were red, back to the next room to rest.

In the dead of night, Wang Xiuying, who also has a cheerful personality, was lying in bed, sobbing softly.

"Xiuying, what's wrong with you?!"

Lin Hongzhi was fast asleep when he vaguely heard his wife crying. The woman then asked her in confusion.

Did I wake you up?

Wang Xiuying wiped away her tears and said shyly.

Lin Hongzhi reached out and hugged his wife, patted her shoulder, and said comfortingly, "It's okay, why are you crying all of a sudden! Who upset you!"

Wang Xiuying buried her head in Lin Hongzhi's arms and wiped her tears on his clothes.

"It's nothing, I just miss my parents!"

Wang Xiuying's father was Lin Hongzhi's boss, and she and Lin Hongzhi met through her father's introduction.

Wang Xiuying grew up in a military compound and developed a carefree personality. She thought she would be happy forever, but unexpectedly, her father sacrificed his life in the second year of her marriage, and her mother followed her after telling her and her brother about her funeral arrangements.

When she returned today, she saw that Dong Xiulan had arranged her life in an orderly manner, which reminded her of her own parents.

"Okay, stop crying. If Mom and Dad knew you were doing so well now, they would be so happy for you. I'll be safe in Beijing from now on, and I can spend more time with you and Wenbin."

Lin Hongzhi patted his wife on the shoulder. He understood her. The sacrifices of his parents-in-law and the fact that he himself had almost sacrificed himself two years ago had made his wife worry and fear for the past two years. Today, she probably relaxed suddenly, and all her emotions surged up again.

"Yes, we'll all be fine from now on, not only you and me, but also Wenbin's sister, we'll all be fine!"

Wang Xiuying said with a smile.

"Wenbin's sister? Xiuying, you...you're pregnant?"

Lin Hongzhi looked at Wang Xiuying's belly in surprise and said with a look of delight.

"I'm not sure yet, it's still early in the pregnancy. I'll know after a check-up when I'm further along!"

Seeing her husband's delighted expression, Wang Xiuying smiled and touched her belly, saying...
