Liu Yun was also busy. She had originally planned to go to Guangzhou once things settled down here, but Yu Qian and his side disrupted her plans.
Although plans can't keep up with changes, adjusting the order is still possible.
First, he bought two shops in Wushi, which is next to Xinshi, with his own money. He had already discussed this with Liu Jingcheng, and neither of them had any objections. After all, renting a shop costs money, and buying a house costs even more. Now, they should save money wherever possible. It doesn't matter whose property they rent from, especially since Liu Yun paid for it herself and didn't charge rent.
However, when they go to Xiangshi to open a shop, the three of them will have to buy a house together. In Xinshi, the three of them have also bought three adjacent shops, which have been demolished and are under reconstruction.
The shop in Wushi is all decorated and Liu Jing has been trained; all that's left is to open for business.
Liu Yun: "The renovations in Wushi are all finished."
Liu Jing: "I've already selected the people, and I can arrange for them to go anytime."
Cheng Ke: "I'm under some pressure. These middlemen are getting more and more goods, and they've opened two more stores all at once. At this rate, the warehouse inventory can only last for half a month. Even with two shifts, it won't work. The fabric factory only has this much stock left."
Liu Yun: "If there's no new supply of fabric, how long can we hold out like this?"
Cheng Ke: "It won't take more than two months."
Liu Yun: "That's enough, sister. Brother-in-law should have connections with other fabric factories. Ask him to help make some connections to tide us over for a while. I'm going to Xiangshi in a few days to check out the shop locations. If there are any suitable ones, I'll buy them. I'll go to Guangshi next month. There are plenty of fabric merchants there, with many styles and low prices. Brother-in-law and his team have assembled a convoy, right? We can get our goods directly from Guangshi."
Liu Jing: "Okay, I'll ask him when I get back today."
Cheng Ke: "If the fabric problem is solved, you will need to go to Xiangshi to look at shops. The shop in Xinshi is almost finished, so we will need to hire more people and buy more sewing machines, otherwise the demand here will not be able to keep up."
Liu Jing: "Okay, I'll make the arrangements."
Liu Yun: "Let's hold on for these few months. I've inquired and found that a small factory in the suburbs is planning to produce more. It should be confirmed by the end of the year. Then we can take over the business and buy a few dozen more sewing machines. I'm just afraid we'll have too much unsold stock."
Liu Jing: "That's all money! The factory alone must have cost over 100,000! And dozens of sewing machines, just twenty of them would cost five or six thousand. Then there's the shop. The one in Xinshi isn't finished yet, we have to buy one in Xiangshi, and rebuild it there, which would cost another six or seven thousand, maybe even less. You also said you wanted to open a shop in Jishi (which is next to Xinshi), that would cost another five or six thousand. All of that costs money! Where would we get so much money?"
Liu Yun: "That's why we need to work hard now! There aren't many people doing this yet, so there's less market competition and it's easier to make money. It will be harder once there are more people selling clothes."
Cheng Ke: "Once there are more people selling, we can move towards a high-end market, selling expensive, exquisite, and customized products. Of course, we can't abandon the affordable products we have now."
This was something Liu Yun hadn't expected. She hadn't anticipated that Cheng Ke would think of taking a high-end approach; he certainly had a good business sense.
Liu Yun: "That will have to wait until later. Right now, we haven't even earned enough money to take over a factory yet."
This sentence put pressure on Liu Jing and Cheng Ke, but it also filled them with motivation.
Liu Jing: "I'll go recruit and train people right away, and then ask Lao Xiao for a sewing machine."
Cheng Ke: "Then I'll go design the autumn and winter styles. The sooner they're made, the sooner they can be sold, so those middlemen can make a killing."
Liu Yun: "Then I'll find a shop and then decorate it?"
Actually, she wanted to quit, but both of them were full of energy. If she quit, she would seem out of place, since she was still the one with the most money and needed to find something to do.
Hurry up and it's almost the end of the year, then we can redistribute the shares. She's not comfortable with so many shares; she just wants to slack off. It's better for her to take less and then just lie low and do nothing.
Just like Xiao Zhihua and Xiao Hongmei's motorcade, how comfortable it is to pay the money and then lie back!
After everything was arranged in Xinshi, Liu Yun and Yu Qian set off for Xiangshi.
Since we will be going directly from Xiangshi to Guangshi, we didn't bring the child with us and asked Yu's mother to look after him.
One has to wonder what Yu Qian, who has once again been given empty promises by his wife, thinks about this.
Yu Qianhe: What else can I do? Hasn't he eaten enough pancakes over the years? He can only pamper the wife he married!
More than ten years have passed since she transmigrated, and this is the first time she has ridden a green train in this era. She had heard from novels that the green trains of this era were full of all sorts of oddballs, and she was really curious.
However, perhaps because it was only four or five hours away, she didn't encounter any oddballs, but she was almost overwhelmed by the stench.
The temperature in the train carriage in August was like a steamer, and they were like various steamed buns and mantou being steamed inside, with all sorts of indescribable flavors mixed together.
It's fortunate that Yu Qianhe brought oranges, otherwise she might have gotten off the train halfway through the journey.
"vomit."
Yu Qianhe: "Come drink some water and rinse your mouth. This handkerchief is full of orange peels. Hold it under your nose and lie here for a while. It will feel better when the train starts moving and the wind blows in."
Liu Yun: "Mm."
Liu Yun was too weak to speak; she was in so much pain. She had just gotten on the bus when she was hit by a strange smell and it took her a long time to recover until Yu Qian gave her an orange peel to put under her nose, which made her feel a little better.
But the smell was too strong, so the orange peel wasn't very useful.
It wasn't until the train started moving and the wind blew in that I felt a little better; although it was hot air, it still helped.
