When they returned to Guangzhou, they found that Lu Yuan had not come back and was always staying in guesthouses, which was a bit expensive. Qian Duoduo asked Xiaozai to look for a suitable courtyard house so she could buy it.
When Ah Hu saw Xiao Qian Duo Duo talking about buying a yard, he had no objection. With so much money earned, buying a house was nothing.
After Xiaozai left, she asked Ahu to wait at the train station to see when Luyuan and the others would return.
Three days later, Lu Yuan and his group returned to Guangdong Province. Xiao Zai and A Hu led the three of them to a courtyard not far from the train station. The courtyard was quite large, but it was close to the railway, and the clattering of the trains was a bit noisy. However, the location made up for this shortcoming. After all, it was a large place that could be used to load goods, and its proximity to the train station made it convenient for transporting goods.
Looking at the courtyard, Lu Yuan understood that his girlfriend really liked buying a house. However, he still had business to attend to. He smiled and handed a bag to Qian Duoduo, telling her to keep it safe. Then he left the courtyard with A Biao and the other three. Lu Yuan's departure was also to give Qian Duoduo some time to use his space, even though he knew that Qian Duoduo might not even need a second to put the bag in his space. He still wanted to give Qian Duoduo a reasonable explanation for why the money wasn't there.
Qian Duoduo was unaware of Lu Yuan's thoughts and instead felt that such an opportunity was rare. She roughly counted the money in her handbag and then put it into her spatial storage. She mentally calculated the money she had earned from these two transactions, and after deducting costs, she realized that she had made a fortune. However, thinking about the situation in Pengcheng, Qian Duoduo's heart sank slightly.
I've made a profit selling clothes twice, and it seems like I have a lot of money now, but when you really think about it, it's still not enough to do anything in Shenzhen.
So Qian Duoduo still had her heart set on that batch of woolen coats. If those could really be made, the profits would definitely be more than those from summer short-sleeved shirts. However, the garment factory hadn't replied, probably because they were reluctant to part with them. Little did she know that because she had bought this courtyard and moved here, the guesthouse was deserted. Factory Director Yang couldn't find Qian Duoduo and was so anxious that his mouth was covered in blisters. He was filled with regret, wondering why he hadn't agreed in the first place. Now he could only watch helplessly as those things continued to gather dust in the warehouse.
She asked Abiao to get her some big items at the Ji'an Wharf, such as watches, radios, and televisions. Actually, Qian Duoduo could exchange the gold coins in her space for cash, but she couldn't explain why so much money would suddenly appear and cause misunderstandings. Or she could trade with Su Ruanruan for something more trendy than what she had now. But Qian Duoduo was a cautious person. She was afraid of being targeted and dissected for research.
When Lu Yuan and the others returned, they brought some vegetables and meat. Qian Duoduo was in a good mood and went to the kitchen to cook a table full of dishes. At this time, Abiao and the others realized what delicious food was. Even though the dishes were a bit dark in color, even though they contained chili peppers, and even though they were a bit salty, they were still very appetizing. A Hu ate four bowls of rice, and A Mao, who usually ate the least, ate two bowls without hesitation.
Amao chuckled and patted his belly, saying, "Comrade Qian, with such delicious food, will you be able to eat anything else in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Ah Hu's tears immediately welled up. Qian Duoduo was taken aback. "Wow, does this count as a tough guy shedding tears, all because of a little bit of food?"
After Qian Duoduo and Lu Yuan rested for two days, when they reappeared at the garment factory along with Xiaozai, not only Factory Director Yang but also Factory Director Liu of the trousers factory were so happy they almost cried.
Seeing Yang's expression, Qian Duoduo understood that they were anxious. Could she try to negotiate a lower price? However, considering that the previous cooperation had been quite pleasant, she hadn't squeezed Yang and Liu too much on the price, though it was true that the price wasn't high.
Having endured the agony of not being able to find anyone, Director Yang didn't haggle much over the price, because the price Qian Duoduo offered was within his acceptable range, albeit at the lower end.
Factory Director Liu stopped Qian Duoduo and said, "Our factory has a batch of fabric. Back then, everyone said that American fabric was sturdy and durable, but our country didn't recognize it. Comrade Qian, why don't you help us out?"
After Qian Duoduo signed the agreement with Factory Director Yang, she went to the pants factory and saw the stockpiled denim. She sighed to herself, "It's like God is sending me a pillow when I'm sleepy." Naturally, after bargaining with Factory Director Liu, she reached an agreement where she would be happy while he would cry.
When Factory Director Yang and Factory Director Liu were drinking, after learning about the back-and-forth bargaining between Qian Duoduo and Factory Director Liu, Factory Director Yang said, "Old Liu, we've been brothers since we were kids, so I won't hide anything from you. Qian Duoduo is no simple girl. She's the kind of person who won't act until she sees the benefit. But this girl really has something in her head."
Factory Director Liu sighed and said, "I know. When we were doing the Qian Duoduo order, I knew we wouldn't make much money, so we wanted to make some money on these fabrics, otherwise it would really be a money-losing business."
Factory Director Yang sighed and said, "I've figured it out now. This stuff is just gathering dust in the warehouse, and it's annoying to look at. Selling it now, even though we lost some money, turns fixed assets into working capital, which is a good thing."
Factory Director Liu could only nod, took a sip of wine, and said, "You know what, I'm actually looking forward to seeing how Qian Duoduo will alter your batch of finished woolen overcoats."
They didn't have to wait long. Qian Duoduo came to the pattern-making area with a design draft, took out a wool coat, removed the lining, cut some of the original sleeves, and then tucked in a little bit at the waist. Finally, she sewed the lining back on.
Qian Duoduo put on the altered clothes, and Factory Director Yang, who came to see them, stared wide-eyed, pointing at the woolen coat Qian Duoduo was wearing and asking, "This, this is, altered?"
Qian Duoduo shrugged: Isn't this obvious?
Director Yang seemed to see everyone strolling around in the autumn wearing clothes altered by Qian Duoduo. That scene, to be honest, was quite inspiring!
However, the temperature in Guangdong Province was still quite high. Qian Duoduo was still wondering what to do when he received news that Qian Mao and Qian Gui had arrived together. The two brothers were also surprised when they saw Qian Duoduo's small courtyard. They had already bought a house in Guangzhou. Were they a little slow?
Qian Duoduo made them wait ten days, then, carrying the wool coats and jeans, one headed to Shanghai and the other to Harbin. The value of these items and the huge sum of money they would receive upon sale made the two of them extremely nervous!
