There was not much joy on Cheng's mother's face, but rather a bit of worry.

"Maizi, your idea is good. I believe we can make money in the short term, but I'm afraid this business won't last."

Cheng Maixiang didn't mind her mother pouring cold water on her. Instead, she looked at her with great interest, "Mom, tell me your reasons."

"Maizi, your dress is indeed beautiful and the style is rare. Since no one has seen it, you can definitely sell a lot of it. But the problem is, this dress is not difficult to make. Anyone who knows how to make clothes can probably make the same one after seeing it.

By then, the streets will be full of such clothes. If Xiaolin's friend wants them, he can just find someone to make them in Guangzhou. Why bother going all the way to Dong Province to buy clothes?

Besides, you're the only one working day and night, how many pieces can you make? If it were me, I'd take a few pieces from you as samples and then go directly to a local garment factory. I'm afraid it would be more convenient."

Wow, Cheng Maixiang just wanted to give Cheng's mother a big hug.

Although Cheng's mother is a country woman, she has a sharp vision and a long-term perspective. If she were an ordinary country old lady, she would have been so happy to see so much money and would have urged Cheng Maixiang to do it quickly, without caring about the long-term benefits.

Cheng's mother's words further strengthened Cheng Maixiang's idea. Originally, she had only made a preliminary decision, but after this trial, she felt that Cheng's mother was the most suitable candidate.

Cheng Maixiang stretched out her arms and hugged Cheng's mother, resting her chin on her shoulder, and said softly, "Mom, I have considered everything you said. I have another idea. Do you want to hear it?"

Mother Cheng likes it most when her daughter acts like a spoiled child to her like this, as if Cheng Maixiang is still the child who has not grown up and is leaning on her lap. When she encounters a problem that she cannot solve, she can only hide in her mother's arms and act spoiled and naughty.

"You pulled me in here just to discuss something with me, right? Just say whatever you want to say." Mother Cheng patted her head gently.

"Oh," Cheng Maixiang touched her head and deliberately cracked her lips, causing Cheng's mother to smile. "Here's my plan. If Jiayu's friend is interested in the clothes I make, then I'll make an agreement with him. I'll design more styles for him, but I won't give him the designs. He can only buy the ready-made clothes we make, and he has to buy at least two hundred pieces of each style.

As long as he finds a factory that can make it for him, we will change the style and make a living. And because we are producing new styles, the price will naturally be higher than that of the factory that supplies him in the future."

Cheng Maixiang said so much, and Cheng's mother immediately understood. "You mean, you will only make sample clothes forever, and Xiaolin's friend can find a factory to produce them?"

With a smack, Cheng Maixiang gave Cheng's mother a big kiss on the face.

The little old lady is really smart and understands everything immediately.

Cheng Maixiang had no choice but to do this. After all, in this era, there was no so-called copyright awareness. As long as new clothes came out, all garment factories could copy them openly. She did not have the manpower and financial resources, so she could not compete with those state-owned factories.

Mother Cheng's face flushed, and she was obviously not used to Cheng Maixiang's affection. She poked her finger on her forehead and said angrily, "You are such a big girl, but you are crazy all day long and have no manners."

Cheng Maixiang giggled, "Mom, just tell me if my idea is good or not?"

"That's fine, but you're alone. Mom can help you out, and we can do it together. We can only make a few pieces a day. How can we finish those 200 pieces? Besides, you're planning to go to school after the summer vacation. Are you going to change your mind?"

This is exactly the point that Cheng Maixiang wants to discuss with Cheng's mother next!
