After the underwear chain stores were established in the two cities of Beijing and Donghai, Shen Xiaobei published several soft articles about City Beauty underwear in several major newspapers.
Also attached were pictures of the lingerie factory that Huo Ying had specially sent over, as well as pictures of the lingerie store that Wang Yisan and herself had taken in Donghai and Jingshi.
With pictures as evidence and text as supplement, after the franchise announcement was published in major newspapers, Huo Ying quickly called Shen Xiaobei to tell him that there was an endless stream of people inquiring about opening a franchise store.
They can be found in all big and small cities, and it seems that they are about to blossom all over the country.
Huo Ying said excitedly on the phone, "Xiaobei, it seems we need to open another branch factory. We just can't handle the current two factories."
"Sister Ying, instead of opening small factories one after another, which is so troublesome, why don't we build a factory ourselves? A large-scale factory with employee dormitories included. This will make it easier to recruit workers."
"Then you can recruit people from further afield or from other places to work. Otherwise, your recruitment is too limited and you can only recruit locals."
"Build your own factory?"
"Yes, we need to build a medium-sized factory of 2,000 to 3,000 square meters. Design, cutting, proofing, production, warehouse, sales, and finance all need to have independent offices and workshops to make the production process more professional."
"This way, if customers or franchisees come to visit, the strength of our factory can be demonstrated."
"Okay, Xiaobei, I know that if you want to expand your underwear factory, you have to take this step. Renting someone else's house is not a long-term solution after all, and it's hard to find a suitable one."
"Before, I just thought this was a big project and a little difficult to get started. Since you also think it's time to take this step, Ah Sheng and I will have a good discussion over the next two days and try to get this started as soon as possible."
"Okay, Sister Ying, if you have any financial difficulties, just tell me. I can add some more, or even get a loan from the bank."
"Xiaobei, I understand. If there are any difficulties, I will contact you at any time to find a solution together!"
"Well, okay, Sister Ying, let's keep in touch at any time. I'm also looking forward to your good news."
"Yeah, no problem!"
Although Huo Ying's underwear factory has grown to a small scale, the factory is built in one of his own houses and in a warehouse rented from someone else.
Neither are standard nor large.
Since the underwear they produce is already on the way to the whole country, the scale of all aspects must naturally be updated in a timely manner to keep up.
Otherwise, if the subsequent production capacity cannot keep up, we will not be able to handle such a large order volume.
That would be a pity. After all, a huge amount of money would be lost!
In the past few months since returning to Beijing from Huo Ying with Duan Xichuan, Shen Xiaobei has been busy with school, the lingerie store, and the magazine.
After she had almost sorted out everything, she finally had some time to go to the hospital for a pregnancy check-up.
After school started, her period still hadn't come, so she guessed she might be pregnant.
However, after all, this was not her first pregnancy, and she knew what to pay attention to, so she was not nervous and just wanted to let nature take its course.
However, if you count the days, by November, she was only four months pregnant, but her belly felt like she was six months pregnant.
Gao Hongmian and Qin Yapei both said, "Xiaobei, your belly looks like you might be pregnant with twins again!"
"No way?"
Shen Xiaobei said somewhat unconfidently.
If I get pregnant with twins again, how heavy will I be in the later stages of pregnancy...
She suddenly didn't dare to think about it.
Fortunately, I bought a car, otherwise, traveling would be a problem, let alone going to school or visiting various chain stores.
The next day, she went to the hospital for a check-up, hoping that she was pregnant with just one baby.
However, the test results were the same as Gao Hongmian and Qin Yapei had guessed, she was pregnant with twins again.
Shen Xiaobei's mood was suddenly mixed.
She also felt happy. After all, she was not short of money, and raising another child was just a matter of convenience.
But anyone who has been pregnant knows how hard it is to be pregnant with twins, especially in the later stages of pregnancy. What's more, this time Duan Xichuan is living apart from her.
"Xiaobei."
"Xichuan, what should I do? I'm pregnant with two again! How come you're so strong? You always get two in!"
“Cough cough cough——”
Duan Xichuan received a call from Shen Xiaobei in the military office. There were other colleagues in the office.
The fact that his wife said such private and ambiguous words on the phone reminded Duan Xichuan of the time during the summer vacation when they had made love for several hours in a small hotel near the Donghai Railway Station.
His face turned red, and he pretended to cough a few times in embarrassment.
"Xichuan, what's wrong with you? Do you have a cold?"
"No, no, my throat just felt a little uncomfortable suddenly, but it's fine now. Xiaobei, since you're already pregnant with two children, just make the best of it. After all, you've already had this experience once, right?"
"But that time, you and Shanshan were by my side. I stayed in the compound every day and didn't have to go anywhere. This time is different..."
"...Xiaobei, thank you for your hard work."
My wife has to go to school and run a business. Although Shui'en and Mu'en are taken care of by Aunt Zhao, as a mother, I also need to accompany and teach them.
And I am so far away from them that I can only come back to visit them once a year.
Duan Xichuan knew that Shen Xiaobei’s current situation was actually quite difficult.
He secretly swore in his heart that when they were transferred to the same city in the future, he would love her even more and let her enjoy a relaxing family life while working hard for her career.
"Okay, it's okay. I just suddenly wanted to be hypocritical with you. After the hypocrisy, your wife, I will be resurrected with full blood again. I am still the powerful Shen Xiaobei, haha——"
"Wife, I love you."
"Ah? Aren't you answering the phone in the office right now? How dare you call me wife and say such cheesy things? Aren't you afraid that your colleagues will hear and laugh at you?"
"I'm telling the truth, I'm not afraid of being laughed at."
When Duan Xichuan was holding the receiver and talking to Shen Xiaobei, the other male officers in the office couldn't help but look up and look at him in disbelief, as if they were looking at an alien.
Is this still the always serious and tough Battalion Commander Duan they know?
Wow, it turns out he is so gentle and down-to-earth in front of his wife!
"Hehe, that's right, to be honest, why do you have to laugh at others? Hubby, I love you too, love you, love you, love you... even if I love you ten thousand times, it's still not enough! Boo~"
"Stinky girl, got it. As for the one behind, I won't respond to you here!"
After Shen Xiaobei confessed his love for Duan Xichuan with a laugh on the phone, he playfully gave him a loud kiss.
After hearing this, Duan Xichuan felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
However, after all, they were in the army, and he had to be careful when talking to his wife, so he resisted the strong desire to kiss her back.
