Ruan Qiushui lowered her head and thought for a moment.
"Sir, to be honest, I'm a former educated youth who went to the countryside to support rural development. How about this: I'll provide the design drawings for the foreign guests, and I'll be the nominal designer, is that alright?"
"It means you pay for my designs, either a one-time buyout or a revenue split based on sales."
“I can design six outfits every quarter until someone takes my place.”
This way, it won't conflict with the work at the health center, since the designer only needs to make clothes anyway.
"good."
Jiang Changguo agreed without hesitation.
"Don't worry, girl, I won't shortchange you on your salary and benefits. As for the payment method for the design fee, I need to discuss it with the factory's leadership before I can decide."
This is a designer who can retain foreign guests. Even if this request is unreasonable, we have to agree to it.
This is the only hope for the factory to survive.
Seeing that Jiang Changguo had agreed, Ruan Qiushui turned to tell the foreign guests.
The four reached a consensus and hurriedly finished their meal.
Ruan Qiushui, carrying an aluminum lunchbox containing meat and vegetables she had prepared in advance, followed Jiang Changguo toward the garment factory.
"Xiao Ruan, please let the two foreign guests sit down and rest for a while. I'll have my secretary draft the contract, and you come with me to HR to complete the onboarding procedures."
Jiang Changguo had already gained a preliminary understanding of Ruan Qiushui on the way.
"good."
Ruan Qiushui nodded, and after reassuring the foreign guests, she followed Jiang Changguo to complete the onboarding procedures.
"Our factory pays wages on the 10th of every month. You can just come and collect it then."
"As for the design drawings, I'll give you a definite answer by the day after tomorrow."
After receiving the foreign guests, he still has one meeting after another to attend.
"Okay, I'll come over the day after tomorrow."
Ruan Qiushui wasn't worried about Jiang Changguo denying his promise; the future cooperation with Hongri Garment Factory would still depend on her.
Carrying a basket on her back, Ruan Qiushui strolled out of the garment factory.
"Oh dear, why did this old man suddenly fall to the ground?"
“I didn’t push him, you can all be my witnesses.”
"Does anyone know him? Please help me call his family."
As Ruan Qiushui approached, she saw an elderly man with gray hair lying on the ground, his face pale and covered in sweat.
Ruan Qiushui quickly stepped forward to straighten the old man's body and unbuttoned his collar.
Check the pupils, measure the pulse, and insert a silver needle into the philtrum.
This old man is riddled with ailments.
He not only had multiple hidden injuries, but also suffered from high blood pressure and diabetes. His sudden fainting was caused by his high blood pressure.
Fortunately, there was no intracranial hemorrhage, so we can consider ourselves lucky.
Unfortunately, he clenched his teeth, so Ruan Qiushui couldn't feed him the pills. She could only take out a military water bottle filled with spiritual spring water from her spatial storage using the basket on her back and give the old man a sip.
"She's awake, she's alright now."
Onlookers saw the old man's eyes move and exclaimed that it was a miracle.
They were worried that the girl would be extorted after trying to save someone, but they didn't expect her to be a really capable person.
"Alas, I'm getting old and useless."
The old man opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.
Back when he fought the Japanese invaders, he was so brave and tenacious. How come he's making a fool of himself at this age?
"Sir, where do you live? Do you need me to take you home?"
Ruan Qiushui helped the old man slowly stand up.
"Thank you very much, little girl."
Shen Yongjun stopped trying to be tough; he still had unfulfilled wishes and couldn't just die in frustration.
Following the old man's directions, Ruan Qiushui walked through the bustling city center and arrived at a cluster of small Western-style houses.
"It's the building in front."
Shen Yongjun pointed to the most impressive three-story villa.
"Grandpa, you're finally back."
"You mustn't tease me like that next time, or the old lady will scold me again if she finds out."
Li, the bodyguard of Chen Yongjun, stood at the door and approached with a mournful face.
The old man, when he had nothing to do, liked to tease him. One day, he wasn't looking and the person disappeared; he searched for a long time but couldn't find him.
The old lady used to be a bandit, but later joined the resistance against Japan. Even though she tried to be much more restrained, she would definitely explode at the slightest provocation when it came to the old man's affairs.
He didn't want to be scared by the old lady wielding a whip.
"Laozi".
Shen Yongjun was about to say something to Xiao Li when he noticed Ruan Qiushui was still standing to the side, so he became a little more civilized.
"I feel like I'm in prison at home all day long. You all watch over me. Can't I even go out for a bit of fresh air?"
I wasn't this frustrated even when I was captured and interrogated by the enemy.
"You old geezer, what are you talking about going to jail for? You think I'm too strict with you? Fine, then leave right now if you dare, and I really won't bother you anymore."
When Liu Sanmei heard this from inside the house, she was furious and rushed out, grabbing Shen Yongjun's ear and refusing to let go.
"Hey, hey, old woman, be gentle, don't scare the young girl."
In front of outsiders, an old woman has to save face for herself.
"Well, I didn't see it."
Liu Sanmei let go of her hand and looked at Ruan Qiushui beside her.
"Girl, where are you from? Why are you back with this old geezer? Has he gotten into trouble again?"
Liu Sanmei pulled Ruan Qiushui towards the house.
"Come, come, keep Grandma company for a while. I feel a sense of warmth when I see you. I'm an old woman all alone, and I don't even have anyone close to me. I'm so lonely."
"Zhang Ma, quickly get me some tea and snacks."
He shouted inside as he walked.
Ruan Qiushui: This old lady has such a strong voice.
"Madam, I'm just giving the old man a ride back. No need for tea or snacks, I have other things to do and must go now."
"By the way, the old man fainted on the street today, so you have to be careful."
Such a playful old man needs to be kept in close watch by his family. If he encounters any unexpected situation outside, it will be too late to regret it.
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Sanmei was furious and twisted Shen Yongjun's ear again.
"Ouch!"
Shen Yongjun didn't dare to pry his wife's hands off, so he could only let her drag him into the living room.
Ruan Qiushui, who was also pulled in and followed them inside: ...
"Young lady, thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, this old man probably wouldn't have made it back."
After reprimanding Shen Yongjun, Liu Sanmei quickly thanked Ruan Qiushui.
It's all thanks to this kind-hearted girl. If he had encountered someone who was afraid of trouble, would the old man still be able to breathe?
"I don't have anything particularly valuable, so you can keep this jade bracelet for yourself."
This jade bracelet was a dowry gift given to Liu Sanmei by her brother years ago.
Now that I'm old and my beauty has faded, and my arms are no longer as slender as a young girl's, I might as well give it to someone who is more suitable for it.
This girl looks kind; letting her take it wouldn't be a waste of her talent.
"No, no, no, this won't do. I'm unworthy of it."
This bracelet looks incredibly valuable; she'd feel terribly guilty if she took it.
