Wang Xiufen took over the qipao job, and the task of picking up and dropping off the children was handed over to Jiang Ning.
Fortunately, her job was unusual, and Jack was an enlightened boss, so she could drop the children off at school before going to work each day.
She can leave work early when school ends in the afternoon.
How can a merchandiser who sits in the office all day possibly do a good job?
Xingguang Trading deals in clothing, so she needs to have a thorough understanding of the clothing market and establish connections with major clothing factories.
Fortunately, Lin Chen knew many sales managers at garment factories, and with just a word from him, she could visit and negotiate with them.
The factories she worked at were mostly silk factories and textile factories.
We haven't considered visiting ordinary garment factories yet, since most of the clothing being shipped to the mainland is from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
That day, during her visit abroad, she saw a clothing factory with a rather large sign outside, so she asked the security guard what kind of clothes they made inside.
While I was chatting with the gatekeeper, a woman in a floral dress, carrying a handbag, swaggered into the factory.
Upon seeing this, the old man rushed out and stopped her.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Don't you know you need to register?"
Jiang Rou frowned as she looked at him, her tone arrogant:
"Sir, I need to go in and talk to your factory manager. There's a big deal going on."
The old man's face darkened. "No matter how big your business is, you have to register first! Who are you looking for? I'll call the office first to see if anyone's there."
Jiang Rou followed him into the house and found Jiang Ning sitting in a chair.
"Oh, isn't this your older sister?"
She spoke slowly.
Jiang Ning, who was reading a newspaper, stiffly looked up, feeling a chill run through her body as if her blood had reversed.
Even though so much time has passed, when she saw Jiang Rou again, she couldn't help but recall all the things from the past, and she almost bit her back teeth until they bled.
"So you're sisters!"
The old man, however, failed to notice the spark between them and even suggested that they could go in together.
After registering, the two entered the factory and went to the office building to find someone.
"Jiang Ning, you leave your parents to us kids and go out there to enjoy your retirement. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Just as they were about to enter the gate, Jiang Rou blocked Jiang Ning at the entrance.
She assumed Jiang Ning was there to buy goods for her wholesale stall, not wanting to have another competitor.
At this point, even if Jiang Ning didn't intend to cooperate with the factory, she wouldn't just leave. She chuckled and said:
"You have a good conscience, so go ahead and take care of them. You've been eating and using their food for so many years, it's time to repay them."
“You…” Jiang Rou didn’t expect her to be so self-righteous.
"This is unfilial of you, and you will be punished in the future." After a long while, she managed to utter a curse.
Jiang Ning's smile deepened: "So, they got sick because they did too many bad things in the past? Now that I'm cutting ties with you, I advise you to shut up too, so you don't suffer the consequences as well."
As she spoke, she stepped into the supply and marketing department's office.
Jiang Rou was so angry her head was buzzing. Seeing that she went into the supply and marketing department, she secretly laughed to herself:
"You're really ignorant. Of course, you should go directly to the factory manager when you come here."
To her surprise, she didn't even get to see the factory manager; the people in the general office kicked her out.
"What are you doing? Our factory manager is very busy. If you have any questions, please contact the relevant department."
What department is the relevant department?
She had no choice but to ask again.
In the end, she still went to the supply and marketing department.
She ran into Jiang Ning again.
When Jiang Ning saw her, she stood up with a smile, shook hands with the section chief named Ren Kun to say goodbye,
"Okay, let's work together again when the opportunity arises."
With that, she glanced at Jiang Rou with disdain and left.
Seeing the section chief's smiling face, Jiang Rou quickly stepped forward and proposed their collaboration.
Ren Kun's face was already expressionless; after hearing her request, he coldly refused.
"I'm sorry, our factory usually cooperates with companies. As for individual businesses, our factory's minimum order quantity is 5,000 pieces."
Jiang Rou was dumbfounded. Five thousand pieces of clothing, even if the purchase price was only ten yuan, that's fifty thousand yuan! She simply didn't have that kind of capital.
She stormed out of the garment factory and spat on the ground.
Damn it, this is so unlucky. I've been to more than a dozen factories, and they're all like this. In some factories, I could at least meet the factory manager, but in this factory, I didn't even get to see the manager.
I clearly see that Gao Baoliang buys a lot of different kinds of goods every day, but the quantities aren't that many!
Could it be that their suppliers have something else going on?
Just when she was at her wit's end, she saw a familiar figure in the billiards hall next door.
This person is the young man named A Yong who delivers goods to Gao Baoliang's store every morning.
Speaking of which, this Ah Biao is quite mysterious. He is responsible for delivering goods every morning, and then disappears after delivering the goods.
It turns out he came here to play pool.
She bought two bottles of soda from the convenience store and walked towards Ah Yong.
She casually handed him the soda, forcing a smile.
"You play well, can you teach me?"
After Ah Yong finished his shot, he frowned and looked at her.
Isn't this the lady next door? Why isn't she minding her stall? Why is she here?
He took the soda. "Ma'am, are you closing your business?"
Jiang Rou felt a lump in her throat. Was she really that old? She should call her "elder sister."
In order to get closer to A-Yong, she had no choice but to suppress her discomfort and try to get closer to her.
Most of A-Yong's friends were hoodlums he met at the billiards hall. They saw him talking to a woman who was fairly pretty and winking at her.
Jiang Rou treated A Yong to soda and meals, and actually managed to extract a lot of useful information from him.
It turns out that the clothes in Gao Baoliang's shop were all selected by Lin Chen from various factories. Lin Chen had signed a long-term contract with the factory, and he only needed to pick up the goods regularly.
Ah Yong was just running errands for them.
"You must be working really hard, having to pick up so many goods every day. How much do they pay you?"
Jiang Rou deliberately misled him, trying to sow discord between A Yong and Lin Chen.
Ah Yong waved his hand: "Five hundred a month."
Jiang Rou's face stiffened. She never dreamed that a errand runner could earn so much money.
No wonder he wouldn't tell me which garment factories they were from or how much they cost when I asked him.
It seems impossible to bribe him with money.
Just as they were halfway through their meal, A-Yong's friends arrived and sat down at the same table with them.
Jiang Rou was easily coaxed into drinking several glasses of beer.
That night, when she woke up from her drunken stupor, she found herself lying naked on a large bed in a simple room, with two or three other naked men lying next to her.
One of them was A Yong.
Her face instantly drained of all color, turning deathly pale.
The intense tearing pain in her lower body made her realize what she had just experienced.
She quickly woke Ah Yong up and yelled at him:
"You bunch of beasts, what have you done to me? I'm going to call the police and have you all arrested."
Ah Yong was momentarily panicked, then hugged her and pleaded:
"Sister, please don't call the police. You wanted to know Brother Chen's supply channels, right? I'll tell you everything."
