Chapter 514 Extra: The Women Are Flourishing The two of them said, gently resting their heads on Shu Ying's shoulder.
Shu Ying smiled and took their hands tightly.
"You two said it, so neither of you is allowed to run away. I own shares in this store, so you two need to hurry up and make some money. I'm waiting for my year-end bonus."
Li Qingqing and Xie Mingzhu's personalities have also become noticeably more cheerful than before, and they playfully gave Shu Ying a salute.
"Understood!"
The three of them burst into laughter.
Just then, the shop assistant swept up the firecracker debris at the entrance, and Shu Ying, Li Qingqing, and Xie Mingzhu went into the shop hand in hand to look at it.
The shop's decoration was handled by Li Qingqing and Shu Ying. Shu Ying had been very busy with her work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently, and this was her first time visiting the shop.
The store doesn't look big, but it's nearly five meters wide, making it slightly more spacious than the neighboring stores.
The sewing machine that Shu Ying once gave to Xie Mingzhu has been carefully preserved by her.
Standing at the door, I immediately spotted the sewing machine placed in front of the counter.
Even now, with updates and iterations, the old sewing machines have been honorably retired and replaced by newer, lighter, and easier-to-use sewing machines.
Xie Mingzhu still cherishes this sewing machine, keeping it as a prized possession of the store, covered with a glass case as a memento.
After all, these are the "founding veterans" who have witnessed their journey from working in their homes in the family compound to setting up street stalls and opening counters in department stores, all of which helped them build their "commercial empire."
Many of the initial design ideas were created using this sewing machine.
It also earned them their initial start-up capital.
Xie Mingzhu and Li Qingqing cherished it very much. The glass cover was polished to a shine, and the machine had obviously been maintained and was well cared for.
The store is divided into a front and a back yard; the front is the sales area, and the back is the processing area.
The experienced tailors they had hired were working behind the scenes, rushing to finish the work while the machines hummed.
"After taking over this shop, I still had some cash on hand, so the two of us bought two industrial sewing machines and one overlock machine, which made the experienced craftsmen more efficient in making clothes."
"Compared to before, it's about the same as saving the wages of two experienced workers."
Xie Mingzhu introduced the store to Shu Ying as she led her inside.
Shu Ying stood inside the shop, circling around and observing.
"The entire store's decoration style was designed by Mingzhu. I found a construction team that meticulously arranged it according to Mingzhu's ideas. What do you think?"
Li Qingqing asked with a smile.
To be honest, Shu Ying was truly amazed.
The entire store is decorated with wood elements. The wood veneer surfaces are polished to an exceptionally smooth finish and coated with a layer of clear varnish, giving them an exceptionally delicate texture.
The walls of the shop are inlaid with irregularly shaped shelves of varying heights, and the ends of the shelves are clearly specially designed with elegant carvings.
From the entrance to the interior, every row of floor shelves is arranged with exceptional neatness, and on the blank wall directly behind the counter, colorful traditional Chinese paintings are hung on scrolls.
The birds in the painting are vividly depicted, yet they also possess a unique classical charm.
It blends traditional Chinese style with some popular elements.
For example, the white plaster decoration on the walls is inspired by the Western medieval decorating style, and the wallpaper pattern on the walls is also commonly used in the West.
However, the two styles don't look out of place together; they blend together quite perfectly.
