First, they painted a rosy picture in front of him, making him incredibly envious, yet powerless to do anything about it.
Now, having received such a huge shock, Huang Zhen was somewhat numb, feeling that it was perfectly reasonable for Song Lili to say anything earth-shattering next.
Even Mu Shaohua, who was standing to the side, was very surprised, looking at Song Lili with disbelief in his eyes.
Song Lili felt a little embarrassed by the two people staring at her, but she still nodded and said, "I do have this idea, and I've thought about it before, so I'm confident in myself."
She couldn't tell the two people that she had seen many styles of clothing, all of which were the most popular styles.
She could only use this excuse to draw out what was in her mind and then put it into practice.
She felt a little uneasy, wondering if the two elderly people would think she was being too ridiculous by saying this.
She carefully observed their expressions and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that neither of them seemed angry.
Thankfully, things are still relatively calm. It seems we can still try to make a move.
She didn't know that she had left a deep impression on the elderly people in Hongqi Village. They all thought she was a smart girl and that she would never do anything unreliable.
So, when they heard her ask me to design clothes for them, both of them were surprised, but neither of them thought she was joking.
They all thought that Lili had probably learned it herself, which was why she was saying that now.
They had a strange trust in her, perhaps related to their past.
She used to protect them, so everyone subconsciously regarded her as someone who could withstand storms and stand on their own.
I never imagined that she might just be observing as she went along.
“Since you want to design, then go ahead and do it. I believe you’ll do a great job,” Huang Zhen said with a smile.
Song Lili was truly stunned. She stood there for a long time before happily saying, "Okay, thank you for trusting me, Grandpa."
Song Lili really didn't expect that Huang Zhen would agree so readily.
"You're welcome, I believe you." Huang Zhen waved his hand, genuinely believing in Song Lili.
The two continued to discuss, and this went on for an entire afternoon. By the time they had explained everything clearly, it was already late afternoon and the sun was setting.
Huang Zhen stretched and stood up. "Oh dear, I didn't expect it to be this late."
He glanced at Mu Shaohua, who hadn't kept his word all afternoon, and said, "Lili, we need to go back. It's getting late."
"I'll think about your suggestion again when I get back, and I'll let you know when I have an answer."
The proposal Huang Zhen mentioned was Song Lili's proposal about the industrial chain. He was still very interested in it, but he couldn't make a decision immediately.
Song Lili understood, "Okay, I'll wait for news from Grandpa, but it's okay if I don't hear from him yet. We can build it up slowly later."
In the end, Song Lili decided to persuade Huang Zhen, since the two of them didn't have the ability right now, and the business was too big, which wasn't a good thing.
Therefore, it's better to take it one step at a time.
Huang Zhen understood this principle: "I understand, don't worry, I will think it over carefully."
Song Lili invited the two people to stay for dinner, but they didn't.
As he was about to leave, Mu Shaohua said to Song Lili, "If you need any help, don't hesitate to tell me."
"If I can help, I definitely will."
"Okay, thank you in advance, Grandpa."
Song Lili didn't refuse. Who knows if she'd need help in the future? She decided to agree first.
What if we need it later?
Song Lili's thought only lingered in her mind before she quickly forgot about it, but Mu Shaohua remembered it firmly.
He also wanted to use this opportunity to repay Song Lili for her help.
He had accepted ten years of care from others for no reason, and he felt he needed to reciprocate in some way, otherwise he would feel uneasy.
Therefore, Mu Shaohua has been looking for opportunities to see if he can help in any way.
Previously, Song Lili didn't need his help; her hot pot restaurant business model was already established, and there was no need for him to assist her.
This time, he only came along because Huang Zhen said he wanted to cooperate with Song Lili.
After listening to their conversation all afternoon, Mu Shaohua had even more confidence in Song Lili.
Finally, considering that they might not have wanted to go for the all-inclusive service due to funding issues.
Mu Shaohua then spoke up, saying that he might be able to help with the funding aspect.
In the days that followed, Song Lili lived a busy yet carefree life.
Every day I cook, then take the children to school, and then draw design sketches, sketching down all the retro clothing styles I've seen and can remember.
Her idea was simply to draw it first, while she could still remember it.
Who knows, maybe we'll be able to use these someday?
Now, choose the ones that are suitable and use them; put the ones that are not suitable aside, because you never know when you might need them.
She forgot about time, forgot about everything, and became engrossed in drawing the design drafts, while outside, Huang Zhen also started running.
He plans to buy an existing factory, hire workers, and start production once the design drawings are ready.
He's already found someone, and they're in talks. They'll be able to close the deal soon.
The paperwork is being processed at the same time, but he has a large network of connections. He contacted someone he knew in the relevant department, so he won't have to wait long to get it.
Once everything is ready, production can begin immediately.
By the time Song Lili felt the design drawings were almost complete, news had spread to Huang Zhen that they were already hiring.
Once the workers are recruited, garment production can begin.
They planned to start with women's clothing, since there's a saying that women's and children's money is the easiest to earn.
Therefore, Song Lili decided to take this advice, make women's clothing, and then wholesale it.
As for the supply chain, Huang Zhen finally made a decision, feeling that he did not yet have the capability and decided to postpone it.
Song Lili felt the same way, and the two of them were of the same mind, so I won't go into details.
Now, everything is ready except for the final push; we're just waiting for the factory to start production.
Before starting work, Song Lili gave the design drawings to Huang Zhen, and the two also signed a contract, confirming some things in black and white.
Huang Zhen provided the capital, Song Lili provided the design, and contributed her technology as equity, ultimately holding 40% of the shares.
The rest belong to Huang Zhen.
This was the result of a discussion between the two of them.
Of course, Huang Zhen was also in charge of the factory's management. It could be said that Song Lili didn't need to do anything except draw design drafts.
Then she can receive 40% of the profits.
She felt she had gotten a good deal, but Huang Zhen felt she had been taken advantage of and kept feeling guilty, always thinking of giving Song Lili more.
