Everyone knows Sun Ze'an. His mother is the second-in-command of the city's Administration for Industry and Commerce, his father is the factory director of a cotton mill, and he himself is a researcher. Everyone who meets him has to exchange a few polite words with him.
The curly-haired proprietress didn't dare to test Jiang Xue. The two were so close, so the girl's family background must be quite good.
"Girl, raise your price, and from now on we'll be your long-term supplier, just like you said. The main thing is, our materials are good. Take them back and sell them, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Jiang Xue's complete 180-degree change in attitude towards the curly-haired shop owner made her feel quite comfortable.
"Okay, then give me one yuan each." Jiang Xue keenly sensed that the proprietress's attitude towards Sun Ze'an was unusual.
I'm currently in the most difficult period of starting my business, so I'm trying to save money and cut costs wherever possible.
The curly-haired proprietress's face instantly darkened, but Sun Ze'an, who didn't know much about the situation, could only speak up for Jiang Xue. He chimed in, "That's right, proprietress, you've always been a conscientious merchant. One yuan is fine, it's one yuan."
The curly-haired proprietress stared at Sun Ze'an in shock. Her heart was pounding in her throat from his words; she thought he was targeting her again.
In reality, Sun Ze'an was just a specialist in researching automated machinery. He had no idea about the rules and regulations in this field. In his mind, he would help Jiang Xue with anything she asked for, and if all else failed, he would just buy it for her.
Little did they know that these words were enough to intimidate the curly-haired proprietress, "Alright, girl, I'll have the deliveryman bring it to your door right away."
Sun Ze'an, standing to the side, was happy for Jiang Xue, "I wanted to help you, but I didn't expect I'm completely useless. I'll go back to school first, and I'll pick up the things from your shop the day after tomorrow."
Upon returning to the shop, Jiang Xue immediately brought the two little ones back.
Her intuition told her that Sun Ze'an must be someone with connections or a powerful background, and she should befriend him.
Jiang Xue first piled the fabric on the table; the fabric had already cost 60% of the budget.
However, hanging them up is also an expense; we need to find a carpenter to make some wooden strips to support the fabric.
Jiang Xue felt the day went by exceptionally fast; despite the pile of fabric, she still managed to get a few more orders.
Jiang Xue, engrossed in her work, had long forgotten the time.
"Going back?" Ji Chen parked his bicycle at the shop entrance, walked in, and hugged Shao Meng and Shao Heng together, kissing them repeatedly.
"Have you two been behaving well today?"
"Good boy, I'm a good boy. My aunt even gave me three steamed buns as a reward today." Shao Heng wiped his snotty nose with his dirty clothes.
"You little glutton, you're so sloppy." Ji Chen said with a hint of disgust, but he still couldn't help but hug her tightly again and again.
As soon as Ji Chen entered the room, he found the fabric piled up on the table and the floor, making a complete mess, while Jiang Xue was still working tirelessly.
"Let's go eat first," Ji Chen said, holding Shao Meng in his arms and urging Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue glanced at the pile of fabric on the ground, her brows furrowing into a deep frown.
Seeing this, Ji Chen said impatiently, "Let's go eat. You've ruined it for the two kids."
Jiang Xue had no choice but to put down her work, go forward and take Shao Heng's hand, and prepare to close the shop window.
"Just lock the door, we'll return it later," Ji Chen urged Jiang Xue, frowning.
Jiang Xue was so busy and disoriented during the day that she was completely bewildered by what Ji Chen said.
"Let's go get something to eat first. You take the two kids to the street to buy some food, and give me the keys," Ji Chen instructed methodically.
