Chapter 76 Caught During a Nightclub Party
"Oh my, Sister Tang, what a coincidence!" Jiang Ruzhen was also pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect that the older sister she had just met and hit it off with yesterday was also in the clothing industry.
"What are you doing here?" Tang Mi got up and pulled Jiang Ruzhen into the house to sit down.
Jiang Ruzhen shook her head at the mess on the floor. "I'm not sitting here. Sister Tang, what happened to your shop? Was it robbed?"
"Sigh! Don't even mention it. Didn't I tell you yesterday that I have a group of foreign clients? This morning, I was delivering goods to them, and after the truck left, I realized that a few bags of goods were mistakenly packed and brought here by the driver."
That sales clerk was stupid; she opened all my bags and hung them up. I had a short temper, so I yelled at her, and she quit.
I told the customer I would deliver it to them in half an hour, but they didn't care about the bags of goods and just said they didn't want them and just wanted their money back.
"Tell me, I specially rushed to make this batch of goods for them, and they just said they didn't want them. The cost of these goods was quite high, and now I have to take them to the wholesale market to sell myself. It's so frustrating."
Jiang Ruzhen beamed with joy and grabbed Tang Mi's hand, saying, "What's there to worry about, Sister Tang? Give me all these goods."
"Huh? If I give it to you, what are you going to do with it?" Tang Mi asked in surprise.
“I came to Hangzhou this time to buy goods. I have my own store in Liancheng, and I just happen to be short of these high-quality and distinctive clothes. You’ve really saved me an emergency.”
"Oh, that's wonderful! We sisters are truly destined for each other!"
Tang Mi was also pleasantly surprised and grabbed Jiang Ruzhen's hand, saying repeatedly, "You've helped me so much, and you're still my little sister. Just take all these goods at cost price."
Jiang Ruzhen smiled and said, "Then I'm not taking advantage of Sister Tang."
"What do you mean by taking advantage? Just because we click, I'm happy to give it to you."
The two happily agreed on the price: jeans at 20 yuan a pair, T-shirts at 15 yuan a pair, and over a thousand of each type in the three bags, totaling nearly 40,000 yuan.
The second child, listening nearby, gaped. "Mom, don't be impulsive. These clothes are too expensive. Can we really sell them?"
Jiang Ruzhen shook her head at him, signaling him to be quiet.
After negotiating the price, Tang Mi immediately hired several workers to load the goods onto a truck and deliver them to the train station. Only after completing the shipping procedures did she go with Jiang Ruzhen to the post office to collect the money.
Jiang Ruzhen wired 20,000 yuan to buy goods this time, but she was not worried at all. She took the remittance slip, withdrew 20,000 yuan in cash, and put it in her bag.
After leaving the house, the bag contained 40,000 yuan in cash, which he gave to Tang Mi.
Tang Mi didn't even count them, just put them in her bag, and beckoned Jiang Ruzhen to get in the car, saying she would take her to visit the factory.
Jiang Ruzhen shook her head. She still needed to go to the wholesale market to buy some clothes for everyday sale. After arranging to meet Tang Mi at the hotel at six o'clock in the evening, she took her second son back and bought nearly 10,000 yuan worth of goods.
The second child was horrified by the speed at which her mother was spending money; she was incredibly audacious!
These days, in their small coastal city, having 10,000 yuan in savings is considered being a "ten-thousand-yuan household," a status that commands great respect.
In this southern city, among these rows of shops, the daily turnover of goods is between tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands.
This business is incredibly profitable!
After hiring a car to send the newly arrived goods back to Liancheng, the two returned to their hotel.
After a busy morning, the two were hungry. They found a state-run restaurant by the roadside and ate there. Afterward, Jiang Ruzhen went back to the hotel, washed up, and went to bed to rest.
The second child is young and energetic. After washing up, he went out to continue exploring the half of Xihu Lake that he hadn't finished exploring yesterday.
At 6 p.m. sharp, Tang Mi arrived to pick up Jiang Ruzhen.
After resting for an afternoon, Jiang Ruzhen regained her radiant spirits.
She dressed up specially, wearing a bright red dress, with light makeup, and her hair was styled into big waves and casually draped over her back.
As I walked, a faint scent of roses wafted around me.
Tang Mi sniffed and said, "My goodness, Sister Jiang, are you going out to conquer all?"
Looks like I'll have to find a few more men to keep you company, otherwise I'm afraid you'll be targeted as soon as you enter the dance hall.
ballroom?
Jiang Ruzhen was taken aback. "Sister Tang, you mean nightlife? You mean going to dance halls? Well... I don't think I know..."
"It's okay, I'll take you to respectable dance halls, don't be afraid."
Tang Mi noticed Jiang Ruzhen's intention to back down, so she directly dragged her into the car, and Shen Zhuoyi followed with a smile.
"It's okay, Mom, I'll protect you."
Shen Zhuoyi was excited. He had never been to a dance hall before. It was a good decision to come with his mother to buy goods. This was truly an eye-opening experience!
Jiang Ruzhen was speechless for a moment. Neither of them waited for her to finish speaking. She wanted to say that she couldn't dance. Was she supposed to go to the dance hall to watch others dance?
Tang Mi drove Jiang Ruzhen to the grand ballroom of the most bustling and luxurious hotel in Hangzhou.
The moment she stepped inside, the antique feel of the place made her fall in love with it.
Dim lighting, a colorful crystal ball overhead, ancient music, and colorful lights hanging on the walls.
Various old songs and classic dance music seemed to instantly fill her with passion and energy.
Even if she can't dance, just sitting here, swaying to the music, and feeling that unique charm is an indescribable and wonderful experience.
Jiang Ruzhen's mindset gradually opened up. As Tang Mi entered the booth inside, several men were already sitting there.
As soon as they saw Tang Mi arrive, they all stood up and came over to greet her.
Tang Mi shook hands with them one by one, and then turned to introduce Jiang Ruzhen to them.
The men's eyes lit up at the same time, and after they sat down, each of them vied to curry favor with Jiang Ruzhen.
One particularly enthusiastic man was a well-dressed, middle-aged gentleman. Jiang Ruzhen learned of his identity from Tang Mi.
Zhou Qi is the director of a state-owned silk factory in Hangzhou. He is 52 years old this year. His wife passed away eight years ago, and he has remained single ever since. He is powerful and wealthy.
He has two children who are now married and working in the factory. His children are very supportive of him finding a partner, but he hasn't found anyone he likes yet.
Judging from the situation today, it's possible that Sister Tang deliberately orchestrated this.
Jiang Ruzhen couldn't refuse Sister Tang's kindness, so she could only deal with these people perfunctorily.
They asked her to dance, but she refused each time, saying she couldn't dance.
The second brother, however, was not intimidated at all. His height of 1.85 meters and handsome appearance quickly won the favor of a group of older women, who enthusiastically invited him to dance.
He was open to all the girls and danced happily with them on the dance floor.
Seeing that no one could persuade Jiang Ruzhen, Tang Mi simply took matters into her own hands and led Jiang Ruzhen onto the dance floor to dance the Peng Chacha.
Jiang Ruzhen is very smart; after jumping around with Tang Mi for two laps, she was able to keep up with her rhythm.
Tang Mi smiled and spun her around again before handing her over to Zhou Qi, who had been waiting nearby.
Zhou Qi took the opportunity to hold Jiang Ruzhen's hand and spun her around. Jiang Ruzhen's dance steps immediately became chaotic, and she looked anxiously at Tang Mi for help.
Tang Mi gave her a sharp look, signaling her to seize the opportunity.
Zhou Qi has exceptionally high standards and excellent qualifications.
If I could get together with Sister Jiang, we'd have a few years left before retirement, and we could live wherever we wanted without the burden of children. It would be a match made in heaven.
In her haste, Jiang Ruzhen made a mistake and stepped on Zhou Qi's feet several times.
"I'm sorry, I'm not very good at dancing. Let's go back and rest!"
Jiang Ruzhen had no interest in talking to Zhou Qi, but Zhou Qi thought she was just shy, so he slowed down his dance steps.
He simply led Jiang Ruzhen and slowly spun around on the sidelines.
"It's okay, I'll guide you through the dance steps slowly."
Jiang Ruzhen had no idea how dazzling she was on the dance floor.
Her fiery red dress fluttered in the wind, her long, wavy, ink-black hair flowed freely, and paired with her elegant and ethereal face, she was simply a bright and beautiful rose in full bloom.
Not only did she attract the attention of all the men present, but she also captivated Lu Mingzheng, who had just rushed over.
He glanced at Jiang Ruzhen, who looked slightly embarrassed, then at the old man beside her who clearly had feelings for her, and his eyes narrowed dangerously.
He strode over, pulled Zhou Qi's small hand into his own, and forcefully half-embraced Jiang Ruzhen, spinning her around in circles.
Zhou Qi was left standing there, his palm empty, looking shocked.
