After that, Xu Yan and Xue Ning made a deal: Xu Yan would offer some suggestions on making clothes, and Xue Ning would make them according to her ideas. She would then share two-tenths of the profits from the clothes sold.
Xue Ning originally wanted to give more, but Xu Yan did not agree.
She knew in her heart that she had only so many skills, but she really didn't have any expertise in fashion design.
However, having bought many clothes in later generations and seen all kinds of clothing, I am able to offer some suggestions.
Moreover, people are more conservative these days, and overly avant-garde clothes are not widely accepted, so Xu Yan tried to take this into account when drawing the pictures.
in addition……
She actually had something else to say to me this time, but not to Xue Ning, but to Fang Xia.
She's the girl who stood next to Xue Ning and glared at Xu Yan when he first went to the market.
At the time, Xu Yan felt that this girl was quite hostile towards him, and judging from her appearance, she seemed difficult to get along with, so he didn't intend to associate with her.
Unexpectedly, Fang Xia's attitude changed 180 degrees after she learned that Xu Yan was already married. She also seemed to like children. On one occasion, when Xu Yan brought Da Bao and Xiao Bao over, she played with the two kids for most of the day.
Xu Yan was initially a little resistant, but after spending more time with her, he found that this girl was not difficult to get along with, and could even be described as enthusiastic.
However, he tends to be rather extreme when dealing with people who are interested in Xue Ning.
“Fang Xia went out to chat,” Xue Ning said. “Wait for me, I’ll go and call her for you.”
After saying that, he left without waiting for Xu Yan to nod.
Xu Yan waited in the shop for a few minutes, and then Fang Xia ran in. When she saw Da Bao and Xiao Bao there, she smiled and took out a few candies to give to them.
Da Bao and Xiao Bao glanced at Xu Yan, and seeing that she had no objections, they took the candy and obediently said, "Thank you, sister."
Fang Xia's face lit up with a smile when they called her "sister" in their sweet voices. "They have such sweet words."
After talking to Da Bao and Xiao Bao, Fang Xia came over to greet Xu Yan and sat down next to her. "What can I do for you, Sister Xu Yan?"
Fang Xia is a year older than Xu Yan, but she has been calling him that ever since she found out that Xu Yan was married, and Xu Yan has never corrected her.
"I'll show you something, I don't know if you can do it," Xu Yan said, and went to get the notebook from the cloth bag.
"Me?" Fang Xia looked at her in disbelief, then turned to look at Xue Ning, "You weren't with..."
“This is not convenient for him to do,” Xu Yan said, opening the notebook in front of Fang Xia before she could finish speaking.
Fang Xia was about to ask if there were any clothes that Xue Ning couldn't make, but then she glanced at the drawing of women's underwear that Xu Yan had made in his notebook.
Her face turned red instantly.
Before Xu Yan could finish his sentence, he slammed the notebook shut, his face flushed red, and he stammered, "You, you, this really isn't suitable."
Xu Yan had anticipated Fang Xia's reaction before she arrived, but she didn't expect it to be this strong. After Fang Xia closed the notebook, she immediately grabbed her and tried to walk out.
Xue Ning had no idea what Xu Yan had shown Fang Xia from beginning to end, and when she saw Fang Xia pulling Xu Yan, she even tried to stop her.
“Let’s go outside and talk for a bit,” Fang Xia said, walking past him and pulling Xu Yan out of the shop. They stopped about five or six meters away from the shop.
"I never expected someone like you, who usually seems so serious, to draw something like this!"
"You even dare to openly display it!"
Fang Xia felt incredibly embarrassed whenever she thought about the models Xu Yan painted wearing only underwear.
Xu Yan: "..."
If she didn't know what she had drawn, just looking at Fang Xia's expression and listening to her words, she would have thought much more.
After much patience, Xu Yan explained it to Fang Xia, but seeing that she still had a look on her face as if to say, "Would anyone really wear something like this?", Xu Yan didn't press her further.
In this day and age, some people in the city only wear tank tops and never wear bras, let alone in the countryside.
Fortunately, the original owner brought a lot of underwear with her when she came here. Although the quality of the bras was far inferior to that of later generations, they were still acceptable, at least she had some.
"Can you do it?" Xu Yan asked.
“Even if we made them, no one would buy them!” Fang Xia said.
“No one else needs to buy it,” Xu Yan said. “I will buy it. If you can do it, I will pay you right now.”
Fang Xia stared at her for a long time before finally saying, "The plan is easy to handle, but this sponge... the shop doesn't have it, we'll have to go to the city to buy it."
“Okay,” Xu Yan nodded, “Then I’ll buy it. I’ll pay for it.”
Fang Xia looked at her for a while longer.
When Xu Yan was about to take the two kids home, Xue Ning still didn't know what kind of clothes she had asked Fang Xia to make that would make Fang Xia blush and hold that notebook like a thief from head to toe.
At the same time, Xie Zhuo was still at Lao He's house.
When Lao He heard Xie Zhuo say before the Lunar New Year that he wanted to recoup his profits and didn't want to invest any more, his jaw nearly dropped in shock.
I asked him repeatedly for a long time why.
Given the momentum at the time, he might have been able to invest in real estate in a few months, but he abruptly stopped and wanted to take the money back.
Old He asked him several times, "Money in the bank is just dead money, you won't get any interest. It's really better to invest. Are you sure you've thought it through?"
"I've thought it through," Xie Zhuo replied calmly.
Old He wanted to persuade him further, feeling that quitting now would be a huge loss.
Even now, let alone back then, he still wants to persuade them.
As he pushed the bankbook he had just received into Xie Zhuo's hand, he was still a little unwilling to give up, "Why?"
