Hua Kai shook her head, unsure herself: "I can't quite put my finger on it, but I just feel like something's missing."
Gu Xiaoxue sat on the sofa, crossed her legs, and touched the bed next to her: "You're still not satisfied? Your requirements are too high. If my house is decorated like this in the future, I'll go straight home after get off work."
Li Jing looked at them, not daring to say anything to disturb them, but she paid close attention to what Hua Kai said, because what Hua Kai was saying now would be key to her selling sofas in the future.
Ye Yifan walked to the wall: "Could it be that the color of this wall is too monotonous?"
Hua Kai looked at Ye Yifan and smiled: "Ye Yifan, you really understand me better than I understand myself. As for this problem, I'll go buy some paint this weekend and paint this wall in an ancient style. The effect will be amazing."
Hearing Hua Kai's praise, Ye Yifan was overjoyed: "You understand me quite well. I'll buy the paints, so just focus on your classes. It's just that I'm afraid you won't be able to go home this Saturday."
Hua Kai said, "It's okay. Winter break is coming soon, and I'll have time to go home then. By the way, could you buy me some canvases while you're at it? I don't know where to buy them. I'll leave the canvases and paints to you. And you can have the carpenter at the factory make the frames. I'll paint some different styles of paintings and hang them on the wall to make them look more artistic."
Ye Yifan said, "You're doing the work of several people, but the greater your ability, the harder you work."
Hua Kai said, "Do you think I have to do everything myself? I'll paint these few urgent ones, and I'll find someone to paint the rest. We can sell wall hangings here in the future. I'll talk to the teachers at the Children's Palace about it, and it'll be a win-win situation for us."
Ye Yifan laughed after hearing this: "You really do have a natural businessman's mind."
Gu Xiaoxue understood: "Hua Kai, you can make money everywhere you go, are you the reincarnation of the God of Wealth?"
Hua Kai smiled and looked at Gu Xiaoxue: "Do you want to make money?"
Gu Xiaoxue nodded repeatedly: "Yes, what are some possible solutions?"
Hua Kai said, "There's a storefront next door. Rent it and hire two people who know how to use a sewing machine to make curtains and duvet covers. From now on, whenever someone buys a sofa from us or asks me to renovate their house, I'll recommend that you make curtains there. It'll be hard not to make money."
Gu Xiaoxue blinked her big eyes excitedly: "This is definitely a great way to make money, but I don't know anything about doing business!"
Hua Kai smiled and said, "I'll accompany you to stock the goods. I'll draw out the designs for you, and the workers can just follow them. As long as they keep good records, and you check on them every day, there won't be any mistakes."
Gu Xiaoxue reached for Huakai's hand: "Huakai, you're so kind of you, you're giving me money like this."
Ye Yifan stood in front of Hua Kai and shook hands with Gu Xiaoxue: "Just talk, don't fight. Hua Kai is a grateful person. You've helped her so much, she's been wanting to find an opportunity to thank you for a long time."
Gu Xiaoxue took Ye Yifan's hand and said, "Brother Fan, you've brought me a fortune. How can I thank you enough?" Then she added, "No, it wouldn't be right for me to accept this. You guys can do this business yourselves. It's not much trouble. It's just a matter of putting in the initial investment. I'm just taking advantage of you. My conscience won't allow it."
Hua Kai laughed and said, "Then go ahead and do it against your conscience. It's okay, I won't blame you."
Ye Yifan was amused by the blooming flowers and laughed: "The word 'blooming flowers' is used so well."
Gu Xiaoxue laughed as well: "Let's go together. I feel more at ease knowing you and Brother Fan are like this."
Hua Kai said, "No need to be so polite with me. A curtain shop isn't a factory or anything, it's not that complicated. Just do it yourself, make more money, and save it for when you get married. I don't need this one."
Ye Yifan also said, "After the flowers bloom, she'll still have to work with me on other projects, so don't let her get distracted."
Gu Xiaoxue pouted: "We agreed we're all friends, so why are you hogging the flowers?"
Hua Kai said earnestly to Gu Xiaoxue, "Director Gu, I'm not joking. I really can't spare the time. I'm assigning this business to you for two reasons. First, you have the capital. This business requires a significant initial investment: renting a shop, buying fabrics, accessories, curtain rods, hiring people, and purchasing sewing machines. People without some experience can't do all of that. Second, you're a local, and all your relatives are here. Initially, all your aunts and uncles could come and help you. These are your advantages. Someone else might not be able to do it. Of course, it's also because you're our friend."
Gu Xiaoxue listened to Hua Kai's words and knew that what she said made sense, but she still felt that this was taking advantage of Hua Kai too much: "But no matter what, you still have to draw the blueprints, right? I can't just take it all for free?"
Hua Kai smiled and said, "You've helped me so much. If you calculate it like this, how can I repay you? If we always keep things so clearly, won't we become estranged?"
Ye Yifan patted Gu Xiaoxue on the shoulder: "Let's leave this to Huakai."
This time, Gu Xiaoxue stopped her playful smile and nodded, "Don't worry, I'm not stupid, I know what I'm doing."
Hua Kai looked at Gu Xiaoxue and said, "Just don't let it interfere with your work. I don't know anything about this part-time job, so Ye Yifan will have to guide you. But in terms of skills, I will definitely make you ahead."
After saying that, she looked at the pile of sofas and said, "Let's get to work first, and we'll talk in detail when we eat later."
Everyone got busy again, arranging the remaining cubicles according to their style and the corresponding sofas. Hua Kai also wrote down what was needed, asking Ye Yifan to drive and buy it tomorrow at noon and put it in, making sure that people would feel at home as soon as they entered.
The upstairs area was tidied up, and then everyone went downstairs. Downstairs, there were no partitions, and the prices were slightly cheaper. The styles were somewhat similar to those of this era, but they had also been modified, and they were all quite nice.
Downstairs, the sofa and coffee table are placed in a sales area, the bed is placed in one place, the chest of drawers and shoe cabinet are placed in another, and there are also two chaise lounges, all of which are in place.
They finished everything and it was past seven o'clock before they went to eat.
This is a commercial area, so there are restaurants nearby. We didn't go far and ate in the vicinity.
After coming out, Hua Kai walked behind Li Jing holding hands, wanting to say a few words to her.
Ye Yifan and Gu Xiaoxue walked ahead, chatting amongst themselves.
Hua Kai said to Li Jing, "Don't be impatient for quick success. First, accumulate experience, study diligently, save money, build connections, and in the future, whether you work for someone else or become your own boss, I will do everything I can to help you. Your future will definitely be more promising than you think."
Li Jing nodded vigorously: "I know, Huakai, thank you so much for helping me get through this and for giving me so much insight."
"I do the same with my brother. I tell him to try what he likes first, and then decide for himself what to do. After all, a job is something you'll be with for life, and you can only do well if you like it. If you want to do sales, I suggest you pick up your English again and learn it. You'll need it in the future."
