Perhaps because he had been away from the army for a short time, Xiao Jiang still maintained the habits he had when he was in the army.
When Linglong came over, he had already gotten up.
Worried that he hadn't had breakfast, Linglong brought some for him.
Xiao Jiang was unfamiliar with the capital and was a little scared when he first came here. He didn't even dare to walk out of the guesthouse.
When Linglong came over, he really hadn't had breakfast yet.
When Linglong handed him the breakfast she brought, she was just polite to him, and Xiao Jiang couldn't help but gobble it up.
Afraid that he would choke if he ate too fast, Linglong offered him water several times.
After he had eaten and drunk his fill, Linglong started talking to him about the real thing.
"Go south?" Xiao Jiang widened his eyes.
He wondered what he was asked to do in the capital.
"Yes, let's go to the south. Let's go to the south and pick out some clothes. We'll sell them when we get back to the capital."
"Sister-in-law, will this work?" Xiao Jiang was nervous.
"I'll pay for all the goods, just come with me."
"Here, sister-in-law, I have money too." Xiao Jiang took out a few ten-yuan big unity notes, and after counting, there were probably more than a hundred yuan.
"Okay, then you should eat some too."
Linglong used the money she had saved before and the allowances her husband gave her later on to leave some money for her family, and she could also take out two thousand yuan at a time.
She took a hundred yuan from Xiao Jiang and took out another hundred yuan from her own money.
"Xiao Jiang, this is two thousand yuan in total. Let's use this as purchase money. If we calculate it in dollars, you'll get 10% and I'll get 90%. But you'll have to work hard this time to get the goods. No matter how much we make in the end, you'll get 10% and I'll get 80%, how about that?"
"No, no, no, sister-in-law, that's too much. I'll only take 100%."
"That won't do. My sister-in-law still needs your help."
Finally, with Xiao Jiang's persuasion, the deal was settled at 10%.
Before, Zheng Tiansen only knew that his wife was going to do business with Xiao Jiang, but he didn't know what she was going to do.
In fact, after deciding to go south, Linglong was a little nervous at first, but she soon became determined.
It’s not that easy to make money, it’s just a little harder along the way.
If she can't even bear this little bit of hardship, then what's the point of doing business?
But of course I have to tell my husband about this.
Linglong let Xiao Jiang continue to live in the guesthouse and returned to the compound first.
"Mom, let Congcong stay here first. I'll go home for a while."
"Okay, just go ahead and do your thing. Congcong won't worry about it."
Linglong had come here before in her husband's car, and her bicycle was still with her family, so she had no choice but to take the bus.
She didn't tell her husband that she was going back. After taking the bus to the station, she walked there.
When Zheng Tiansen came home from get off work, he found someone at home and walked into the house with a look of joy on his face.
"Have you eaten? I made some food."
"I ate. I ate in the cafeteria before coming back. If I had known you were back, I would have definitely gone home to eat." Zheng Tiansen looked around and asked in confusion: "Where's Congcong?"
"I'm still with my mom. I came back just to tell you something."
"You say." Zheng Tiansen sat down.
Linglong then mentioned that she planned to take a train to the south with Xiaojiang to wholesale clothes and sell them.
Zheng Tiansen frowned. "Wife, can't we do some other business in the capital? Do we have to go south?" He was very worried.
It’s not that she can’t do other things, but she feels that it’s too slow and takes a long time to prepare.
She just wanted to save more money first.
Seeing Linglong's firm attitude, Zheng Tiansen was unable to stop her from heading south. He could only search through his contact information and find two people working in the southern military region.
"If anything happens, you can contact them."
"I know. Don't worry, Xiao Jiang is going with me. I'll be careful on the way, so nothing will happen."
"Wife, what do you want me to do with you?"
"I'm fighting for the happiness of our family."
Linglong just came back from the city two days ago and hasn't brought Congcong with her yet.
Zhao Aihong and Wang Juan were both confused about how to respond.
Before I could ask her, she stayed for one night and then left again.
Linglong agreed with her husband and quickly returned to District 3.
It was only then that Zeng Yu learned that his daughter-in-law was going south with someone.
Zeng Yu is knowledgeable, but also worried.
"Linglong, if you're short of money, Mom can get it for you."
"Mom, no, I just want to do something. Don't worry, I know my limits."
Zheng Tianxin was also idle at home, and when he knew what Linglong was going to do, he became eager to try it. He even took out a few hundred dollars of his own money and said he wanted to do it together.
Linglong didn't dare to agree to her easily.
In the end, it was Zheng Tianxin who persuaded her mother Zeng Yu to agree, and Linglong finally agreed to take her with her.
However, Linglong did not take her money, but just took her with her. As for what she would buy or how much she would earn when she came back, Linglong did not interfere.
Zheng Tianxin had a friend who worked at a train station. She made a phone call and reserved suitable train tickets for the three of them.
The three of them packed some luggage, hid the money they were going to take with them, and rushed to the train station.
This time they went out to purchase goods rather than to travel, so they didn't bring much with them.
Xiao Jiang stored all his extra luggage in the compound.
You still need a letter of introduction to go out now, but the requirements are more relaxed than before.
Xiao Jiang had previously emphasized that he only needed a hard seat ticket, but Zheng Tianxin felt that since they were going together, there was no way she could leave him behind.
Linglong also felt that she brought Xiao Jiang with her just to give her some peace of mind. If they didn't travel together, what good would that be?
So all three of them had sleeper tickets and occupied the same berth.
Linglong hid all the money that Xiaojiang and Linglong used to purchase goods, leaving only some of her own money in a small bag.
Linglong was fine, but Xiaojiang was very nervous on the way. Some people thought he was escorting something important.
The train at this time is not going very fast.
They sat for several days before reaching the south, near the port city.
However, she couldn't find many places where she could privately wholesale clothes as Linglong had imagined.
After wandering around for two days without any results, she felt a little discouraged.
Did she miscalculate and come too early?
She felt very guilty towards her sister-in-law and Xiao Jiang who trusted her and had high expectations of her.
If these two people hadn't followed her, if she was alone, she might have already rushed back home.
After searching for a few days, she finally found a way.
It is a small state-owned factory that produces clothing.
The factory's performance was not good before and no wages were paid for several months.
Since it is close to Hong Kong and Macau, a bold leader suggested learning from the clothing styles there and producing some.
But the sales are not good at the moment and the factory is having a headache.
Linglong asked around and was discovered by people in the factory, who then found out where they lived.
Linglong didn't believe it at first, but she went to the factory with Xiaojiang and others to see the finished clothes, and her eyes lit up.
