Chapter 359: If you want to make money, you have to be thick-skinned
"It hasn't been decided yet!" Su Jiaojiao actually already had an idea in her mind. If it really doesn't work out, she will just do it in her hometown.
She has always kept in touch with Li Na.
Li Na said that Jiali Garment Factory has now been acquired by Qimei Garment, and she is now the director of the sewing workshop at Jiali Garment Factory.
It would also be fine for her to place orders for short-sleeved floral shirts, which are not in a hurry to be shipped, in Jiao County.
"I do know a Jingdu Clothing Company. It's not far from Wudaokou, and it only takes half an hour to get there at most." Wang Hua has been in contact with Su Jiaojiao for a long time and has followed her around Mocheng. He also knows the general process of placing clothing orders. "Jingdu Clothing Company is quite large. I've been there a few times. The owner is Mr. Lu's cousin-in-law. Oh, and Mr. Lu's cousin Pei Lan works at our company."
It’s Kyoto Clothing Company again!
"Let me think about it!" Su Jiaojiao saw that Wang Hua also mentioned Kyoto Clothing Company, and thought secretly, after going around in circles, she had an intersection with Kyoto Clothing Company again. Was it a coincidence, or fate?
"If you want to go, I can help you contact them." Wang Hua didn't treat Su Jiaojiao as an outsider. Su Jiaojiao said quickly, "I have a friend who knows the owner of Kyoto Clothing Company. If I go, I can just ask her for an introduction. No need to bother you."
Wang Hua recommended him there, somewhat out of respect for Lu Jingyou.
She didn't want to use the Lu family's favors because of these things.
"Oh, I see." Wang Hua understood immediately and continued, "Actually, you don't have to worry so much. Mr. Lu doesn't have much contact with them. Only Mr. Lin often goes to their house to make clothes. Speaking of which, Mr. Lin also spends a lot of money. I once heard Ms. Lin say that if it weren't for the relationship, she would have wanted to bargain. She also said that their private customization charges are too high. I heard that Pei Lan's husband Wu Jingbo had a conflict with Lu Jiaping in the early years, so he doesn't associate with the Lu family."
"Pei Lan's mother is Mr. Lu's cousin. If you do the math, they are indeed distant relatives. Pei Lan was introduced to the company by President Lin. She only visits Mr. Lu during the Chinese New Year at most."
Su Jiaojiao knows all this.
She just didn't want to meet Lin Manli, but she could accept everything else.
Anyway, it’s not like she doesn’t want to pay the processing fee.
The sun outside the window was so hot that she couldn't open her eyes. Cars were flowing on the highway. Jeans, baseball jacket, and floral shirt were all spinning back and forth in her mind.
Su Jiaojiao made the decision without waiting to get off the highway.
The short-sleeved shirts were made at Qimei Garment Factory, and the long-sleeved shirts were made at Kyoto Garment Company. Since she would be selling the long-sleeved shirts in autumn, it would be most appropriate to place them at Kyoto Garment Company.
As for Lin Manli, she didn't care about these things.
As long as she was talking to Lu Jingyou, she couldn't avoid Lin Manli, and they would have to face each other sooner or later.
Since you can't avoid it, just face it!
If you want to make money, you have to be thick-skinned.
After returning to Jinyuan, Su Jiaojiao convinced herself. She immediately contacted Zhang Miaomiao: "Sister Miaomiao, when are you free, please accompany me to the Kyoto Clothing Company to discuss the shirt."
"I'm free tomorrow afternoon." Zhang Miaomiao was also happy to see it happen. "How about this, you wait for me at Wudaokou tomorrow afternoon, and then I'll come find you."
After making an appointment with Zhang Miaomiao, Su Jiaojiao called Mr. Kang from Qimei Garment Factory to ask about her company's order arrangements.
After Jiali Garment Factory was acquired by Qimei, it was changed to Qimei Jiali Garment Company. Orders are arranged by the provincial foreign trade department, but they can also accept orders independently.
"The whole factory is making cotton clothes now. You know, we make winter clothes in the summer and summer clothes in the winter. The orders are already booked until November." Mr. Kang had a good impression of Su Jiaojiao and asked with a smile, "Are our female college students still in the clothing business?"
Su Houli happened to be in the office. When he heard Su Jiaojiao calling Mr. Kang, he couldn't help but listen attentively.
He knew that Su Jiaojiao didn't come back this summer, and Chen Guilan went to the capital to stay for a few days. After Chen Guilan came back, he didn't ask her how Su Jiaojiao was doing.
"Yes, I have a batch of short-sleeved shirts that I want to have made at Qimei. President Kang will have to take the trouble to arrange it." Su Jiaojiao knew that Qimei had constant orders. After all, it had the support of the provincial foreign trade. Otherwise, they would not have acquired Jiali Garment Factory.
"How many pieces?" Mr. Kang glanced at Su Houli.
"One hundred thousand pieces." Su Jiaojiao knew that this number was also a big order for Qimei. Qimei had complete equipment and standardized processes, so there would definitely be no problem.
"Little girl, your business is really growing." Mr. Kang smiled. "Okay, fax me the production process and send me the samples, and then we can discuss the processing fee. As long as it's summer clothing, I can arrange it. I think the cutting department will have finished cutting all the cotton-padded jackets by mid-October, and then I can arrange this batch of shirts for you."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Kang. Please give me the fax number and I will send it right away." Su Jiaojiao was well prepared. She took the printed production process sheet and faxed it to Qi Mei, and also sent the sample.
Ten minutes later, the fax room delivered the fax. Seeing that Su Houli hadn't left yet, President Kang joked, "Your daughter is becoming more and more decisive. This is unlike you."
"Mr. Kang, she didn't say whether it was a cooperation with others or her own business?" Su Houli still couldn't believe that Su Jiaojiao could handle such a large order. She was still a child.
"I don't know about that." Mr. Kang knew what Su Houli was thinking and said disapprovingly, "If you really care about your daughter, then you should take good care of this batch of goods. It's better not to ask about other things."
"That's right, that's right." Su Houli responded repeatedly.
After finishing the short-sleeved shirt, Su Jiaojiao took out the sample of the long-sleeved shirt and looked at it carefully. She made two short-sleeved shirts and three long-sleeved shirts for Lu Jingyou, two of which were white and three had patterns. She could have made one more, but there was not enough fabric.
Long-sleeved shirts seem to have half a sleeve more than short-sleeved shirts, but in fact the process is much more complicated. The cuffs of half-sleeved shirts are directly pressed with visible stitches, while long-sleeved shirts have two more cuffs. Putting on the cuffs looks easy, but it actually requires skill.
The more complicated the process, the higher the processing fee.
"The patterns on these three shirts are quite nice." Ding Linyu also came over to take a look. She turned up the collar and asked, "What sizes are these?"
This batch of floral shirts comes in three sizes: M, L, and XL.
She participated in the data calculation and has been paying attention to this batch of goods.
"These shirts are custom-made." Su Jiaojiao had already washed Lu Jingyou's five shirts, making them feel softer. She put his shirts in her closet and hung them up. She then took out the samples and showed them to Ding Linyu. "These are just samples. Take your measurements and see if the actual data is much different."
"It's OK, within the range." Ding Linyu measured it carefully and asked Su Jiaojiao curiously, "Jiaojiao, you're not a fashion major, so why do you know so much?"
"I started doing orders when I was in high school, so I know a little bit about this." Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "In two years, you'll be a professional too. Practice makes perfect!"
"You are just being modest." Ding Linyu didn't believe it, but didn't ask any more questions.
The next afternoon, Su Jiaojiao and Zhang Miaomiao went to Kyoto Garment Company together.
As soon as she entered, she saw Lin Manli and Pei Lan walking out of the office building, talking and laughing.
