Chapter 363: Fortune and Honor Seeked in Danger
"The early bus doesn't go past your place, which is inconvenient for you." Su Jiaojiao was thinking of transferring Cai Ting back. She would start school in a few days, and she could come over to help in the morning, but she couldn't come every day, as there were still two people needed here.
Ding Linyu asked Wang Xiaoyu if she was willing to go to work at Kyoto Garment Company. Wang Xiaoyu thought Su Jiaojiao didn't want her anymore, and her eyes quickly turned red: "I don't want to leave..."
"I didn't let you go." Su Jiaojiao patiently explained to her, "Because we need to take orders from all over the place, I want to set up a sample group. Now you are a member of the sample group. When you come to the Kyoto Garment Factory, you will work for me and will not participate in their company's assembly line."
Every time there is a new style, she is the one who makes the samples. She is so annoying.
She needs to set up a sample team to share her work.
"We want to train you to be an all-round talent," Ding Linyu added. "You have to be mentally prepared. Making samples is no easier than selling goods, and you also have to monitor the quality of our batch of goods."
"I do." Wang Xiaoyu understood.
"Then let's go now!" Su Jiaojiao took Wang Xiaoyu to Kyoto Clothing Company. "You will work here from now on. Call me if you have any questions."
Wu Jingbo had no objection to Wang Xiaoyu's arrival, and immediately arranged for her to use a sewing machine. Anyway, he was not responsible for Wang Xiaoyu's salary.
Pei Lan was there too. The more she looked at Su Jiaojiao, the more friendly she felt. She insisted on dragging Su Jiaojiao to the office for tea: "The fabrics haven't arrived yet, so there's no need to rush. Have a cup of tea before leaving!"
Su Jiaojiao was also willing to stay with Pei Lan for a while longer, so she followed Pei Lan to the office.
"I had guests yesterday and didn't have time to talk to you. Next time, when Miaomiao comes, we can have dinner together." Pei Lan doesn't work in the company. Her office is next to the private customization studio.
Her office consisted of a tea table and a wooden shelf against the wall with several pieces of colorful cloth on it. There was also a small fish tank on the windowsill with two little red fish swimming around.
Pei Lan has learned tea art.
There are teapots, teacups, tea bowls and tea spoons. Wash the tea and heat the tea bowls. The tea leaves float up and down in the water.
The operation went smoothly.
The tea soup is bright green, the tender buds and leaves stand in the teapot like pine needles, and the fragrance of orchids lingers around the nose.
Su Jiaojiao held a walnut-sized porcelain bowl and took a sip: "Taxue Lanfei?"
She remembered that Pei Lan liked to drink Taxue Lanfei.
Judging from the appearance of this tea, it should be.
"I didn't expect Miss Su to be so knowledgeable about tea!" Pei Lan was very surprised. She preferred talking about tea to talking about clothes. "I knew that using Taxue Lanfei tea would be the most suitable tea to entertain Miss Su. This Taxue Lanfei tea is this year's new tea. I ordered five kilograms of it. I'll give some to Miss Su to try."
"Thank you, Mr. Pei. I don't drink tea much, so I'll just give it a try." Taxue Lanfei is very expensive, costing several hundred yuan per pound.
"You don't drink tea, but you understand it." Pei Lan smiled, but still packed some for Su Jiaojiao and forced it into her mouth. "Meeting friends over tea is much more pleasant than discussing business."
"Thank you, Mr. Pei." Su Jiaojiao had no choice but to accept it.
Pei Lan chuckled: "You're too polite. You don't have to call me President Pei. Just call me Auntie!"
"Okay." Su Jiaojiao responded, "Then you can just call me by my name."
Pei Lan smiled and nodded, then asked her, "How did you get to know Mr. Lin?"
"Which Mr. Lin?" Su Jiaojiao said this before she realized she was talking about Lin Manli.
"It's Ms. Lin who was with me yesterday." Pei Lan looked at Su Jiaojiao with a smile, "She asked you what you were doing here yesterday. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known you knew each other."
"Now that you mention it, she looks familiar to me, but I can't remember where I've seen her before. Why did she ask me?" Su Jiaojiao had met Lin Manli twice in total, once on the Peking University campus and once here with Pei Lan.
She couldn't say that Lin Manli had come to her about the land outside Beijing.
"She just asked what you were doing here. I said I was taking orders, and she didn't say anything else." Pei Lan didn't know what happened between Lin Manli and Su Jiaojiao, so she said casually, "She has invested in the company, so it's normal for her to ask."
"You mean, Mr. Lin has shares in Kyoto?" Su Jiaojiao was very surprised. Why didn't she remember that Lin Manli had shares in Kyoto in her previous life?
"Yes, last year I bought the small scrap collection station next to my company and renovated it. That's when she bought shares." Pei Lan poured tea for Su Jiaojiao and said with a smile, "Otherwise, she wouldn't come to me so often for custom orders."
Su Jiaojiao suddenly realized.
The people in the Lu family really have their own thoughts.
Fang Zeyang was very reliable and delivered the fabric to Kyoto Garment Company the next day.
Kyoto has its own production process, so Su Jiaojiao doesn't need to be busy. Su Jiaojiao ordered the quantity of fabrics and took Wang Xiaoyu to familiarize herself with the specific process. There was nothing to do that day, so she returned to Wudaokou early.
Su Jiaojiao's baseball uniforms are mainly for wholesale, with a retail price of 49, no bargaining.
There are advantages to not bargaining. It's boring to have to wait and see who's going to buy you back.
The retail profit is high, but sales are slow. At the end of the day, twenty pieces were sold. Combined with wholesale and retail, the net profit for the day was about 1,500 yuan, which was a victory in the first battle.
But for Su Jiaojiao, even if she earned this amount every day, the money at the end of a month would still be far from enough to pay for the fabric for that batch of shirts.
It looks very profitable, but in reality you can't see any money.
All the money earned now must be invested, and the invested money will not come back until next year. The money earned next year must continue to be invested, and you will have to wait until the capital chain starts to circulate before you can actually see the money.
"Jingjiao, don't you think we've overextended ourselves?" Ding Linyu, who kept detailed order records, was shocked to see the 100,000 yuan order from Qimei Garment Factory. "I roughly calculated that with the money we have now and the money we might earn in the future, we can easily pay the processing fees for Miaomiao Garment Factory and Qifa Garment Factory, and we can also pay the upfront costs for Jingdu Garment Factory. But we can't afford the fabric and processing fees for this batch of goods from Qimei. Don't forget, the fabric used for 100,000 shirts is a lot of money."
They are making money now.
But the money earned will have to be used to pay for the cost of this batch of floral shirts in the future. If the floral shirts don’t sell well, then all the money will be lost.
She didn't understand how Su Jiaojiao, such a steady person, could play such a big game of chess?
"I know I took a risky move, but Qimei's batch of goods is only a pre-order now. They can only start production in two months. With the production capacity of Qimei's two garment factories, they will be able to deliver the goods before May Day next year." Su Jiaojiao knows Qimei's strength very well, and she doesn't need to send anyone over for this batch of goods. As long as the samples are confirmed and the auxiliary materials are prepared, she doesn't have to worry about anything else.
She had thought about it a long time ago.
If funds are really tight, she will sell her stocks.
When doing business, it is right to take small steps and proceed steadily.
But if you want to make big money, you have to take risks. If she doesn't even have this courage, why would she study the millennial style?
Yu Mingyuan also gave Bai Moli a set of pearl jewelry. She saw Li Manli and Bai Moli together at Jiahe Company and knew that Bai Moli was Lu Jingyou's cousin.
Bai Moli was flattered and happily accompanied Yu Mingyuan shopping.
She answered whatever Yu Mingyuan asked.
