Chapter 445: Cloth Sold Out



"Master, Master, are you there?"

That afternoon, the voice of apprentice Zhang Wenhong came from the intercom.

Su Miaomiao quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and responded.

"Disciple, I'm here. What can I do for you, Master?"

"Something's up, Master. Master Zhang has come to the restaurant and wants to meet with you to discuss the next batch of goods."

Immediately afterwards, Su Miaomiao heard Zhang Wenhong say again.

"Don't worry, I'll hold it. Just talk to it."

"Master, Master Zhang is right next to me. He wants to talk to you."

"Master Zhang, please speak now."

As Su Miaomiao listened to her apprentice speaking, she could imagine the scene on the other end of the intercom, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

Soon, she heard the voice of Master Zhang.

"Shopkeeper Su, I'm Zhang He. The last batch of fabric I bought from you sold very well. Excluding the time it took to get there, it was sold out in less than ten days."

"I want more this time. At least three to five hundred bolts of cloth, otherwise there won't be enough to sell."

"By the way, I brought the account books and the money, and I'm waiting to meet with you, Shopkeeper Su, to divide the money."

"I just don't know when I can see you. I heard that your home is quite far from Chunlan County. If it's inconvenient for you to come, I will go to you. Please tell me where your home is."

Zhang He talked a lot into the intercom, not giving Su Miaomiao a chance to speak.

Because this was his first time using a walkie-talkie, he was a little nervous for a moment, but also because he was so excited to meet Su Miaomiao.

This time he brought the fabrics back from Su Miaomiao and sold them in only four stores close to his home, intending to test the popularity of these four types of fabrics.

Unexpectedly, the popularity of these four fabrics far exceeded his imagination.

Within half a day, long queues formed in front of the four stores. Young ladies and ladies from various families rushed to buy, and the four types of fabrics were snapped up.

These fabrics not only alarmed his colleagues and customers who came to buy fabrics, but also alarmed his elders.

He was an unfavored illegitimate son in the family. Most of the family business was handed over to his eldest and second brothers. Only those places that they looked down upon were handed over to him. Otherwise, he would not have come to Ningguta, a remote and poor place.

This time, because of these four types of fabrics, the elders in the family saw his abilities and specially called him home to praise him, saying that he had brought honor to the Zhang family.

He was also given greater authority, which directly led to an improvement in his status in the family and also meant that he would have more say in business in the future.

The two elder brothers could only envy him and secretly prepared good wine and food to invite him over and try to curry favor with him.

Zhang He was worried that the fabrics were selling too quickly and there was a shortage of supply. The gap between new and old stock was too long, and he was afraid that the popularity of these four fabrics would wane.

So he discussed it with his family elders and decided to introduce a purchase restriction policy. If people still wanted the goods, they could pay a deposit and place an order first, and when the batch of goods arrived, they would be given first to those who had placed an order.

But even so, the eighty pieces of cloth were sold out in just ten days.

This time he rushed to find Su Miaomiao, carrying the expectations of his entire family. He had to quickly buy another batch to sell.

If the quantity is sufficient, he will gradually distribute these goods to various places.

By then, when he has earned money for the family, he might have a chance to compete with his elder brother for the position of heir.

This time he can only win, not lose.

Su Miaomiao is his life-saving straw and his ladder to success.

He couldn't wait to meet Su Miaomiao and finalize the deal as soon as possible so that he could feel at ease.

At this moment, he finished saying all these words in one breath and realized that something was wrong. He seemed to have said too much and too fast, which was impolite.

He quickly spoke into the intercom.

"I'm sorry, Shopkeeper Su, I'm too excited. I won't say anything more. Go ahead, speak."

On the other end of the intercom, Su Miaomiao couldn't help laughing out loud.

She cleared her throat and put the intercom to her lips.

"Congratulations! I knew our products would sell extremely well. How about this? Let's meet tonight to discuss business matters. I wonder if Boss Zhang is free tonight?"

As soon as she sent the message, she quickly received a reply from Boss Zhang.

"Okay, okay, I'm free. I'm here for business this time. I'm always free if you want to see me."

Su Miaomiao could hear through the intercom that Boss Zhang was very attentive.

It’s different when you make money. You become a much more amiable person.

After making an appointment with Boss Zhang, Su Miaomiao used the intercom to convey a message to Xiao Yunfei.

At this time, Xiao Yunfei was watching the villagers mining on the mountain. When he heard Su Miaomiao say that Boss Zhang had sold out the cloth and was preparing to meet to discuss the second order, he said in surprise.

"So soon? Are you ready for the next batch?"

During this period, I was in a hurry to buy tools for felling trees and mining, and I used up many opportunities, so the stockpiling of cloth was delayed.

At this time, Su Miaomiao sighed and said.

"Of course not. We only have 60 pieces of cloth right now, which is far from the 300 to 500 that Master Zhang wants. But we'll be upgraded soon, so we'll be fine once we get the upgrade."

"How much silver do I need to upgrade?"

"Nearly five thousand taels."

"The shortfall is quite large. Let's take it one step at a time. Mr. Zhang is going to give us his dividend tonight. Let's add the dividend and see how much we still need. If that doesn't work, we can borrow some money from someone."

"Well, let's talk in the car later. I'm going to pick you up now."

"Okay, I'll go down the mountain now."

Xiao Yunfei put away the walkie-talkie, observed that there was still no one around, and then walked towards the busy crowd.

Then he said something to Grandpa Su and the others and went down the mountain directly.

Since he got the lumberjack and the chainsaw, he became free in less than two days. Now he can go wherever he wants and no one will bother him.

After looking at the iron ore, Grandpa Su said it was suitable for open-pit mining, so during this period they have been clearing the vegetation and sand on the ground under the command of Grandpa Su.

Today we have reached the drilling operation stage. With the help of the down-the-hole drill rig purchased by Su Miaomiao, the drilling seems to be going smoothly.

If nothing goes wrong, we can start blasting tomorrow to break up the ore.

Xiao Yunfei was thinking about mining iron ore and unknowingly reached the foot of the mountain.

"Husband, here!"

Su Miaomiao's voice is sweet.

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Su Miaomiao waving at him.

"You came down the mountain so quickly. I just arrived and saw you coming out of the woods."

Xiao Yunfei walked over quickly, put his arm around the woman's shoulders and said.

"Once you get used to walking in the mountains, you'll naturally walk faster. Let's go, let's go early and come back early."

As he spoke, he opened the car door, carried Su Miaomiao to the passenger seat, and considerately helped her fasten her seat belt.

After doing this, he found that Su Miaomiao blushed.

He teased with a smirk.
