After the start of the school year, Lu Huaijiao's life once again became a constant back and forth between school and home.
With Lin Yang in charge of everything at the garment factory, Lu Huaijiao wasn't worried about any problems. She appointed Lin Yang as the factory manager, granting him considerable power.
She didn't want to open a factory with her own money, only to have to worry about everything else.
Why would she spend so much money to suffer? She should save the money for food, drink, and entertainment.
Anyway, with so much money, you can't spend it all even if you don't work...
Oh wait, Lu Huaijiao touched her empty pockets and suddenly realized that she had no money left.
Aside from some antiques and small yellow croakers that she can't sell right now, she really has no money. The money she spends every day is given to her by Gu Changzheng.
Lu Huaijiao, who had been wealthy for two generations, had only a few hundred yuan in her pocket for the first time.
She sighed, glancing absently at the small box containing the house and land deeds in her own space. Her grandmother had left so much money, and in the end, it all turned into these contracts.
But it's all good, at least she's achieved her dream of buying an entire street in Shanghai.
Not only in Shanghai, but also in the best-developed coastal provincial capital, she bought a street and several plots of land. Once the area develops further, she will definitely be a landlady.
Tsk…
Although this title sounds a bit tacky, it's undeniably a sign of wealth!
Lu Huaijiao smiled broadly, quite satisfied with the future she envisioned.
Meanwhile, things were going very smoothly at her clothing factory. She gave Lin Yang the design sketches drawn by her classmates, and the factory produced garments according to the sketches, which sold very well.
Gu Changzheng originally only had one store, but in just two or three months, he opened five clothing stores in the city, directly selling clothes produced by their factory.
They claim that the clothing is designed and produced by their own factory designers and that you can't buy the same style elsewhere.
This isn't just something the salesperson made up; it's the truth.
The clothes designed by Lu Huaijiao and her team are not available anywhere else. And every time a new style comes out, Gu Changzheng will have someone wear them and walk around outside.
Just like Lu Huaijiao said before, it's the model effect.
Gu Changzheng learned the idea and immediately put it into practice. After implementing it, the sales of his clothes increased several times over.
Time flies, and it's December already.
After December, the new year will begin.
During this period at the end of the year, many people get married and hold wedding banquets. Lu Huaijiao discussed it with Lin Yang and found ten classmates who had worked well with her to each draw a wedding dress worn by the newlyweds.
Lin Yang ordered the production to be expedited and sent the samples to Gu Changzheng's clothing store, where he had models wear them and stand at the store entrance to promote the products.
Just as Lu Huaijiao said before, many people get married, and many couples with the means see the wedding dresses in Gu Changzheng's clothing store and immediately fall in love with them.
I asked about the price and it was a little expensive, but the clothes are really beautiful.
Moreover, the person selling the clothes said that marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so it's only right to spend a little more money to show it respect, and there's absolutely no problem with that.
Girls naturally love beautiful things, and brides-to-be especially want to look so beautiful on their wedding day that they'll be remembered for a lifetime.
Therefore, it hardly takes much persuasion; any family that truly has the means will definitely choose the wedding dresses produced by Lu Huaijiao's factory.
Lu Huaijiao, a business genius, also saw from their choices that there was a huge profit margin in the custom clothing sector.
She had Gu Changzheng display a sign in the store advertising custom-made clothing, with a dedicated designer working to create appropriate outfits based on the person's body shape, age, and the occasion.
In addition to bridal gowns, they also offer outfits for parents, bridesmaids, and parents and children...
Each type of clothing interview has attracted a lot of attention.
At the end of the year, the garment factory held its first year-end summary, and found that it had already made a profit in just six months since it opened.
Gu Changzheng's clothing store, on the other hand, made a fortune.
Time flies, and it's already the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.
In just a few days, it will be Chinese New Year again. After the Lunar New Year, 1978 will officially become history, and they will enter 1979.
The next ten years, or even twenty years, will be a time of vigorous development for the country.
After a year of doing business, Gu Changzheng had also sensed future development trends.
He proposed to Lu Huaijiao that he wanted to open a hotel with a few other people.
"With whom?"
Lu Huaijiao looked at Gu Changzheng suspiciously and asked, "Partnerships are not easy to run. You need to make the contract and responsibilities clear so that even if conflicts arise in the future, you can act in accordance with the contract."
"I know, don't worry, honey."
Gu Changzheng smiled and squeezed her hand.
His wife is so smart and lovely; he can never get enough of looking at her every day.
"With my wife by my side giving me advice, there won't be any problems."
Gu Changzheng was definitely Lu Huaijiao's most loyal supporter. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he regarded Lu Huaijiao's words as sacred edicts.
Lu Huaijiao pouted.
"Is it with Meng Yong and Xiang Dongcheng?"
"Yes, I previously partnered with them to open a security company, which did quite well. Now we're preparing to venture into the hotel and real estate industries."
There is also freight transport.
Gu Changzheng also wanted to get involved.
The reason he was with Meng Yong and Xiang Dongcheng was not only because they had a strong network of connections, but also because they were good people.
I'm not the kind of person who would be greedy for money and stab someone in the back.
Of course, they don't earn a lot of money right now, so they probably haven't reached the point where they'd tempt people to harm them.
However, if he earns a lot of money in the future and they have disagreements with him, he won't be powerless to resist.
No matter the circumstances, Gu Changzheng would never completely entrust his back to anyone else.
He has a lover, children, and family who need his care, so no matter what, he must have the strength to withstand everything on his own!
Knowing that Gu Changzheng knew his limits, Lu Huaijiao didn't bother with him anymore.
The collaboration between Gu Changzheng, Xiang Dongcheng, and Meng Yong was thus finalized.
As time went on, Meng Yong and his team began to consider starting a legitimate business, believing that only a legitimate business could guarantee their livelihood.
While everyone was busy striving for a better life, on New Year's Eve in 1978, a reservoir on the outskirts of the provincial capital was blown up.
After a series of loud bangs, the reservoir that controls half the city was blasted open with several large holes!
The water in the reservoir poured down and quickly flooded the villages along the river below the reservoir.
One of them, Niujia Village, is in a very serious situation.
