Chapter 308 Infringement (12)
"Dear villagers, uncles, aunts, and grandmas, the new supply of Hanfu has arrived. Here are the sample pictures. Everyone, please take a look first. If you need to pre-order, please contact Sister Zhang Ying to register the quantity and report it to me tomorrow. Also, I know that everyone is short of money, so I will advance the payment for this time. After you sell the goods, you can come back to me for settlement."
After discussing the relevant matters with Master Mo, Tian Xin sent the first version of the sample pictures to the "Xiaowan Village Online Store Group" that night!
For a moment, the group was boiling again!
"You have new products so soon? Is it the original design?"
"Yeah, Xinxin, where on earth have you been? You haven't seen me for a few days?"
"This doesn't look like the previous style! Is it the original? Or did you design it?"
"What's the purchase price for this batch? Is it more expensive or cheaper than the previous ones? How's the quality?"
“If I can’t sell it, can I return it?”
Tian Xin knew all the issues that the villagers were most concerned about and explained them one by one.
Although it was an emergency measure, and Lin Zhou's sketches weren't as professional as Zhen Zhen's, the skills of these craftsmen were top-notch. After some revisions and meticulous craftsmanship, this batch of samples was in no way inferior to the quality of Yuehua. They were just a little simpler in style, lacking the elaborate embroidery and tapestry techniques.
In order to avoid further disputes, this time, Tian Xin branded the Hanfu - On the Waterside.
"Tian Xin, where are you? I miss you so much!"
She was frantically replying to group messages when a dialog box suddenly popped up on her phone. A red penguin flashed back and forth, shaking its head. The note next to it read: Qing Zhou!
She glanced at it and continued to reply to the group message!
“Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding—”
In a split second, her phone and QQ rang simultaneously! The group chat was abuzz with people asking about ordering. She had just typed a long message to respond when this call completely wiped out her conversation!
“…”
She was a little speechless, pressed the hang-up button, and re-edited the message.
Li Jing said you were going to postpone the shopping festival, and I finalized some details with her. But then she called this afternoon to say the staff had misplaced the time, and now it has to be moved up a week. What's going on there? Do you need any help? I'm in the village right now!
Seeing that she didn't answer the phone, Lin Zhou sent her a long text message.
She glanced at him and didn't reply!
I know you're very busy right now. I've heard about what's going on in the village. They're all worried about the supply. Did you go to Yiwu, to see Master Mo? I called her, but no one answered. I can't reach Zhen Zhen either. What's going on? Why can't the goods be shipped suddenly? Can you tell me? I'm so worried about you!
Another one!
[Please stop sending messages. I'm not in Yiwu. The problem has been resolved. I'll be back in a day or two! Don't worry, I'm fine. I miss...]
She quickly edited a message, intending to put an end to Lin Zhou's questioning. But before she could send the message, her phone suddenly rang again.
Here we go again, isn’t it annoying...annoying?
Oh, it’s Zhang Shuai!
After about two seconds of hesitation, she answered the phone.
"elder brother!"
"Did you borrow money from Li Jing?"
Zhang Shuai asked this question simply and clearly.
He didn't ask her where she was or anything else, he just said this.
She laughed: "Li Jing told you?"
"If you need money, why don't you ask me? Why are you looking for her? The village is in such a commotion today. Is it because of the shopping festival?"
"Okay, don't worry about it!" She sighed: "I've solved it!"
"What are you trying to solve? You're still trying to hold on to this mess!" Zhang Shuai's tone was stiff, and it was obvious he was very angry. "Where's Lin Zhou? Where is he when such a big thing happened? Doesn't he know you're in urgent need of money?"
"He doesn't know. I didn't tell him. Don't tell him and don't bother with it anymore!"
Tian Xin said anxiously: "This has nothing to do with you. I can handle my own affairs myself, so don't worry about it!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for Zhang Shuai to reply! She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart...
Reopening the QQ interface, Lin Zhou's messages kept coming one after another.
She saw that the message she had just edited had not been sent out yet.
Just keep typing:
[Don't worry, I'll be back in a day or two. I miss you...]
As soon as the message was sent, Lin Zhou called and there was a message: Answer the phone!
She sighed and answered the call.
"Hello……"
“…”
"Hey, Lin Zhou!"
“…”
Still no sound!
"Lin Zhou..." she called again.
"Is the phone broken?" She took it down, looked at it again and again, and muttered softly: "No, it was working just now! Why is there no sound? Lin Zhou——"
"I am here!"
A deep male voice came through the microphone, accompanied by a faint sigh.
"Why don't you say anything?" she asked angrily.
"Are you anxious?"
"ah?"
"Are you worried if I don't say anything?"
"ah???"
"You haven't answered the phone these days. Do you know how worried I am?"
“…”
She stopped talking!
"Where are you? When will you be back? I went to the ancient city this afternoon and found a few Hanfu designers. I showed them the drawings I had drawn.
They said they need to make some modifications and will have samples ready tomorrow. I'll send them to you then. If they're okay, I'll ask a local garment factory to make a batch and send them to the villagers as an emergency measure!
“…”
"Are you listening?"
“…”
"Tian Xin, speak!"
"No need...don't worry about it."
Tian Xin clutched the corner of her clothes tightly, suppressing her choking sobs, and pretended to be nonchalant: "I have already taken care of everything. The clothes will be sent back in the next few days, and I will be back soon. Go and take care of your own things, don't worry about me all the time!"
"When will you be back?"
"...Tomorrow!" She sighed again!
Lin Zhou seemed very excited: "Tomorrow? What time tomorrow? Train or plane? I'll pick you up!"
"No need. I... still need to go see Gao Wen. I might not be back tonight. Don't bother... anymore! I'll call you in advance when I get back..."
Before I could finish my words, another call came in.
Lin Zhou was still chattering on the other end. She looked at the words "Zhang Shuai" flashing on the screen, hesitated for a second, and hung up.
"That's it for now!" Lin Zhou said, "I'm still in the village. I just went to see Auntie and Xiaoxu. My mom said she wanted to come over and meet Auntie in the next day or two! We'll talk about it in detail when you come back!"
“…”
"Boss, I've already paid back Li Jing's debt. If you have any problems in the future, tell me. Don't make it hard on yourself. I'll be looking after the village for the next two days. If you need anything, feel free to call me! Also... don't mind what I said the other day. I was drunk, my mind wasn't clear, and I was talking nonsense. Please don't be estranged from me because of this!"
"You...what are you going to pay me back with? Did you borrow from someone else? I told you no, I can't pay it back anytime soon, that's why I'm asking Li Jing!" she replied.
…
The phone has been silent for a long time!
She waited for a long time, but Zhang Shuai didn't come back...
