Chapter 148 Embroidery Crafts
While sorting the goods, the two of them greeted passers-by and occasionally took the initiative to introduce a few flagship items, trying their best to sell more.
In this way, sales continued back and forth, and after several rounds, the highly anticipated new embroidery models finally arrived.
Before that, most of the ordinary styles had actually been sold by them, and there were not many left.
When the last order was completed and they packed all the goods, it was exactly 6:30 in the evening. The sky was dyed with a touch of sunset glow, and the streets and alleys gradually became quiet.
Just as they were packing up their stall and preparing to close the shop and leave, the owner of the stall opposite stood up from his chair to stretch his muscles.
The old neighbor, who had run the shop for many years, greeted them with a smile: "Xiao Shen, are you guys finishing work so early today?"
Hearing this familiar and gentle voice, Shen Yan turned around and smiled, responding: "Today's preparations were not sufficient, and many things were decided on the spur of the moment. I thought I'd go back early so I can make some plans for tomorrow."
The boss couldn't help but laugh. "Wow, you guys have been busy from morning till night today, not even taking time to eat. You're working like a fire! And you still have the nerve to say you're not prepared? If you really have everything planned out, I'm afraid you'll turn this whole street upside down, right?"
In the boss's eyes, the small shop owner named Chen Yan not only has outstanding work ability, is beautiful and dignified, behaves steadily and appropriately when talking to others, and speaks clearly and logically, but also has a quick and resourceful mind and can deal with emergencies calmly. It seems as if she has infinite energy and never gets tired.
When he first saw two young girls opening a shop together, he thought it might just be a spur-of-the-moment entertainment project for young people, and they might give up one day when they got tired of it.
Unexpectedly, what he saw and heard today completely overturned his view of them.
Not only are they full of energy, but they also arrange every process in an orderly manner without any ambiguity.
This incident also made the boss completely change his original perception of them.
Especially Shen Yan - her beauty is not only bright and attractive in appearance, but also lies in her determination and courage hidden behind her gentle smile.
He couldn't help but think that some beautiful women don't necessarily exist just to beautify their own world. They may also be flowers with thorns, as delicate and charming as roses, but also sharp and tough among the thorns.
Her beauty makes people yearn for her, but at the same time, it also makes people feel awe and dare not despise her in the slightest.
After hearing the other party's praise, Shen Yan just smiled faintly, with a hint of helplessness on her face, and said: "Alas... it's not so easy to do any business nowadays. We can only make a living and seek stability."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and waved goodbye to the two neighboring couples with her partner: "Brother, sister-in-law, we have to go back to work first. See you tomorrow."
The kind-hearted couple nodded, waved back, and urged, "Go quickly, and be careful on the road!"
"Okay! Thank you, brother and sister-in-law!"
She took the thin but heavy stack of money, her eyes full of smiles and her tone particularly cheerful.
This sentence is not only a thank you, but also an expression of recognition and satisfaction from the bottom of the heart.
After saying goodbye, they left separately.
A few people stood at the door and gave each other a few words of advice. After nodding to each other, they walked in different directions. The street lights were already on, casting mottled shadows in the twilight.
Xu Wenbo accompanied them back to Cao Yangfei's house, and today's mission was completed.
He silently escorted the women along the way, and only felt relieved when they arrived at their destination safely, and his mood became much more relaxed.
He then went home to rest with peace of mind.
After a busy day, I just want to go back as soon as possible to take a hot bath and have a good dinner.
His daily duties were to follow them from the time they started purchasing goods until they finished packing and returned to their respective places.
Whether he is moving fabrics, counting goods, or going out to collect samples, he will appear at the right time when needed, neither overshadowing the team nor staying away from the scene.
Whether it was Yun Suling's shop, the Song family, Zhu Jingchen's place, or other friends' homes - as long as it was a mission node involved in this journey, Xu Wenbo would be there in person, doing his job conscientiously and without any slackness.
Cao Yangfei's family is also included in this range.
This is not only a place to stay, but also an important stop. Many plans are discussed, formulated, and implemented step by step here.
So he was sent to the destination, and his work was finished.
As long as he was sure they were safe and sound, he would have completed all his tasks for the day and would not interfere in subsequent affairs.
Xu Wenbo does not often participate in their actual business operations.
For example, he basically does not do the specific work such as sewing, embroidery, pattern making, and shipping himself.
He himself would rather be a personal bodyguard.
Compared with the tedious manual production and process management, he felt that he was more suitable for the job of protecting these women from outside intrusion.
Shen Yan asked him if he was willing to join the operation like Cao Yangfei and get a share of the profits.
This is a tempting proposal, which not only means greater responsibility but also comes with tangible benefits.
But he made it clear without hesitation that he did not want to do so.
He is clear about his position and mission, and prefers the identity and feeling of a guardian.
She didn't force him.
Shen Yan respected his choice and didn't persuade him too much. She just smiled and then changed the subject.
The main purpose of their visit to Cao Yangfei's home was to discuss how to promote the jeans embroidery business in the next step.
This is the most important development direction at present and the key to further expanding the market and increasing profits.
He Xinci was really busy today.
Eight hours of continuous high-intensity work almost exhausted her. Her fingers were rubbed raw and her eyes were so sore that she couldn't open them.
She had never before done so many embroidery tasks in a single day.
In the past, I only did two or three things a day, but today I finished more than ten!
Not only that, even the sewing machines were under considerable pressure.
It even needs multiple refueling and maintenance!
Because the frequency of use was so high, the machine was running more and more difficult, the gears began to creak, and the movement began to sluggish.
Otherwise it won’t turn at all and the thread will break very easily!
Every time she stopped the machine for adjustment, she was so anxious that she broke out in a sweat, but she always gritted her teeth and persevered without a single complaint.
Everyone sees her efforts and feels sorry for her hard work.
Chen Yan took out four hundred yuan in cash from her bag, handed it to her with both hands and said, "Aunt He, this is your hard-earned money today. Please accept it and count it."
