If they had gotten married early, before she went to college, and she had become his woman, then he wouldn't have to worry about her abandoning him while she was in college.
Chen Jing seemed a little dazed. Ji Xia turned around and looked at him suspiciously, her cheeks flushing: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Chen Jing hugged her from behind, pressing his body tightly against her back. He placed his hand on the back of her hand, intertwining their fingers, and whispered, "You're beautiful, so I want to look at you a few more times."
"Ah Xia, I want to get married. I want you."
Feeling the warmth and heartbeat behind her, and Chen Jing's breath lingering on her neck, Ji Xia smiled shyly.
"We'll get engaged once these two batches of goods are delivered. Don't worry, what's meant to be yours will be yours eventually. There's no escaping it. Get back to business."
"By the way, I think we should find someone to be in charge of quality control, specifically to check the quality of each process, so as to avoid quality problems at critical moments."
"Okay, I'll find one as soon as I get back from the delivery tomorrow."
Chen Jing stared at her profile, his eyes burning with intensity: "Xia is so clever. She came up with a solution in the blink of an eye."
Ji Xia blushed slightly and smiled shyly.
This method is obvious; in later generations, quality inspection will be a crucial department in factories.
However, Chen Jing, who is still a country bumpkin, has never seen or heard of such a thing.
However, he's so cunning; he always finds opportunities to seduce her.
Did he know that she had lived a life of widowhood for half her previous life and couldn't resist sexy men?
...
Early the next morning, Chen Jing drove his small truck to the county town with three hundred sets of orders, along with eight new styles that the two of them had picked out the night before.
The news that the department store had new products today had been released early, and many young girls who love beauty arrived at the department store early to wait for them.
Chen Jing delivered the goods to the warehouse. The warehouse manager received the delivery note from Sansheng Garment Factory, looked Chen Jing up and down, and then notified Manager Hu of the purchasing department.
A moment later, Manager Hu rushed to the warehouse and was excited to see Chen Jing: "Brother, you're finally here! Do you know how long we've been waiting for you?"
As he spoke, he urged the warehouse manager, "Receive the goods as soon as possible and deliver them to the sales center."
The warehouse manager responded, quickly counted the quantity, then had the goods moved, and handed the signed order to Chen Jing.
Chen Jing took the receipt and grinned excitedly: "Manager Hu, I'll go collect the payment from the accountant first, and then I'll treat you to tea."
He agreed to give Manager Hu a 3% kickback. The order was worth 4,950, so the kickback would be about 150.
Giving them a taste of success will lead to more orders in the future, which is good for everyone. Chen Jing had a plan in mind.
"No rush, you go ahead. I have something to tell you later."
Manager Hu signed the delivery slip for him, waved him off and told him to come find him later, while he urged the goods to be put on the shelves.
"So dedicated," Chen Jing thought to himself, and the smile on his face became more genuine.
He had his men help him move the goods, while he went to the accounting department to collect payment.
The most obvious advantage of state-owned enterprises is that there is no triangular debt at this time, and payment is received immediately after delivery, with very fast payment collection.
The female colleague in the accounting department glanced at the receiving slip, then at him: "You're from that garment factory that makes the new style?"
Chen Jing grinned and nodded: "Yes, our garment factory releases many new styles every quarter."
"Really? Has the goods been delivered? I heard that this new style has captivated many wealthy people in the city, and they send people over every day. Have you seen it? I'll go take a look later."
Chen Jing was surprised to hear this. No wonder Manager Hu was in such a hurry to deliver it to the store.
Having successfully received the payment, he praised the accountant with a broad smile, making her giggle with delight, before happily leaving the accounting department.
Nearly five thousand dollars, five thick stacks of ten-dollar bills—this was the first time Chen Jing had ever seen so much money in his life.
Holding the nearly five thousand yuan in his arms, his heart was still pounding wildly, even more excited than when he first held hands with Ji Xia. His handsome face was flushed with excitement.
After leaving the department store office, he stood there for a while, clutching the huge sum of money, before trying to remain calm. After making sure no one was around, he carefully divided the money into three portions.
One hundred and fifty yuan was a kickback for Manager Hu, sealed in a small envelope.
He divided the rest into two portions, put them in two large kraft paper envelopes, then placed them in the lining of his briefcase, slung them in front of him, rubbed his face to restore his smile, and then entered the department store through the front door again.
Around noon, the department store was packed with customers. Chen Jing looked around but didn't see Manager Hu or his henchmen. Instead, he saw a large crowd gathered around the clothing section.
At least 70% of the department store's customers gathered there, and you could vaguely hear excited screams from some people.
Chen Jing looked up and saw that several new clothes had been hung up on hangers in the most conspicuous place.
There were quite a few young girls around, looking at the merchandise and asking the sales clerk to get them some items.
He knew that Ji Xia's new designs were popular; he could tell just by looking at the customers' reactions.
Whether it's the commune or the county town, as long as her new designs are displayed, they're sure to be sought after by young girls.
In a great mood, he looked around and saw a dazzling array of goods. Should he pick out a gift for Ji Xia?
His gaze lingered on the counter, then suddenly his eyes narrowed and landed on a beautiful horn comb.
Chen Jing walked over and pointed to a beautifully packaged wooden box inside the counter: "What's that? Let me see?"
"This is a natural ox horn comb. It's a bit expensive, eight yuan a comb. Don't look at it if it's not for sale."
The sales clerk was somewhat nonchalant, giving a perfunctory reply. Seeing that Chen Jing still insisted, she finally took the gift box out of the counter and gave it to him.
Chen Jing took out the ox horn comb from the box and held it in his palm. The ox horn comb was polished to be very smooth and round. The slightly curved handle had a charming luster. The brownish-yellow color had a few streaks of colorful hues. The color was smooth, clear and delicate. It felt cool and comfortable to the touch.
Ji Xia should like it, he thought to himself, looking down at the four horn combs in total, but he liked the color and shape of the one in his hand the most.
He smiled slightly and put the horn comb back into the box: "Wrap it up and issue the invoice."
He reached out and pulled out ten yuan and an industrial invoice. The clerk thought he didn't want them and was about to retort, but upon hearing this, her expression turned strange.
After receiving the large bill and industrial coupon, the sales clerk was about to wrap up the horn comb when a fair, delicate wrist suddenly reached out from behind Chen Jing and grabbed the comb. A haughty voice said, "This comb is nice, I'll take it."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jing quickly snatched the comb and its box, then turned around and glared at the two girls beside him with a cold face: "I paid for this comb."
