Chapter 42

"My mother and my eldest brother and his wife are in the police station?"

Qin Xiang looked at Mrs. Liu in bewilderment, unable to believe it.

Mrs. Liu nodded, "Yes."

So Mrs. Liu started from the beginning and told her everything that happened last night.

Qin Xiang: "..."

Old Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes, "I'm not saying that, your mother is really confused."

Qin Xiang also agreed with this point, "She has been confused for a long time, I'm used to it." She touched her chin, "So they have been in the Public Security Bureau for a whole night now?"

Old Mrs. Liu nodded, "Yes."

She paused, looking at Qin Xiang's expression with some sympathy, "Are you really divorced? Why did you get divorced?"

"No reason, it's just that my ex-husband cheated on me during the New Year's Day, and I don't want a bastard like him anymore, so I got divorced." Qin Xiang said it lightly, not noticing that Qin Yang's face was very ugly.

Old lady Liu was startled and moved away from Qin Yang. She whispered to Qin Xiang, "Your third brother... isn't going to hit anyone, is he?"

Qin Xiang glanced at the third brother and said with a smile, "It's okay. Even if he hits someone, he probably wants to hit my eldest brother. It's okay. Thank you for telling me about this."

Old lady Liu smiled and said, "With our relationship, there's no need to thank me. It's all right. If it weren't for you, my yard would still be carrying the reputation of being haunted. So what are you going to do about this?"

"Let's talk about it later. I'll pack up the goods first and let them know how powerful I am." That's right, Qin Xiang didn't plan to go to the police station to be picked up now. Since he was in, he had to be taught a lesson before he could get out again.

After Mrs. Liu left, Qin Xiang pulled Qin Yang and said, "Third brother, pack up first."

There were several sacks of clothes. The two opened them and laid them on the kang to check. They found that there were more styles than last time, but they were not very good-looking.

The two put the clothes back and planned where to go tomorrow.

Qin Yang said, "You go to study, I'll pack up."

Qin Xiang nodded and went to study quickly.

Studying is a long-term thing. She was short of time now, so she didn't bother to be polite with her third brother.

And if she wants to continue the business after she is admitted to university, she will have to hand it over to her third brother. So in the future, whether she goes to the city to buy goods or sell goods to find a store, she will take her third brother with her.

Around noon, a comrade from the Public Security Bureau came over. Qin Xiang and Qin Yang pretended to have just found out about it, and then followed the police to the Public Security Bureau.

On the way, Qin Xiang asked about the matter of the college entrance examination. The police said that if the two did not admit it, there would be no evidence after a long time, and it would be difficult to make a conclusion. Although Tanaka Mei and Qin Jun looked stupid, they did not get anything out of them last night, and they gritted their teeth and refused to admit that it happened.

Qin Xiang did not intend to really lock them up. If that was the case, not to mention that her mother would not forgive her, even her father would probably have opinions about her.

Qin Yang looked at Qin Xiang worriedly, knowing that the college entrance examination had always been a concern for her. Qin Xiang was actually ignorant and unaware of it, after all, it happened so long ago. She smiled and said, "Third brother, I'm fine."

Qin Yang hummed and followed him in.

When they saw Lian Fengying and Qin Jun, they fell silent.

After being locked up for just one night, the three looked extremely haggard. Qin Jun was less than 30 years old, but he looked at least ten years older.

When they saw Qin Xiang, the three felt aggrieved. Lian Fengying hurriedly said, "Qin Xiang, you should talk to the police. We are all a family. It is not illegal to climb over the wall of your own house." Qin Xiang

looked at Lian Fengying and smiled, "You and I can still be considered a family because you are my biological mother. As for Qin Jun and Tanaka Mei, I remember that I have severed my relationship with them, and you and they are also separated from the family, so they cannot be considered to have climbed over the wall of their own house."

As she said that, she looked at the police, "Comrade Public Security, if they do not punish us this time, we will be punished ." "Don't quit, there might be a next time. I have a grudge against them, what if they come again in the future. As for the matter of me smashing their house."

She took out two big banknotes from her pocket and threw them into Tanaka Mei's arms, "This is my compensation, I demand severe punishment for their crime of climbing over the wall and trying to break into the house."

Lian Fengying was stunned, "Qin Xiang... No, they are your elder brother and sister-in-law."

Qin Xiang glanced at her, "If you shout again, I will hold you accountable for the college entrance examination as well."

Lian Fengying's voice suddenly became hoarse, but tears flowed vigorously.

Tian Zhongmei and Qin Jun were dumbfounded and frightened. Tian Zhongmei sat on the ground, "Qin Xiang, I was wrong. I will apologize to you and kowtow to you."

Tian Zhongmei actually kowtowed.

Qin Jun also wanted to kowtow when he saw it. Qin Xiang moved away in disgust, "Comrade Public Security, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

The public security comrade nodded and pointed at Lian Fengying, "Take your mother away. Your elder brother and sister-in-law will be detained according to regulations."

Qin Xiang nodded and said to Lian Fengying, "Let's go, mom, we will take you home."

Lian Fengying was stunned, "I won't leave."

Then she sat next to Qin Jun.

Qin Xiang laughed angrily, "Okay, then you stay with me."

After that, she took Qin Yang away.

Qin Yang did not express any opinion from beginning to end. After leaving the police station, he said, "I'll go back to find Dad and ask him to take Mom away."

As soon as the two finished speaking, they saw Qin Hai and Qin Baotian riding their bicycles.

When he got closer, Qin Baotian came down and looked at Qin Xiang with guilt, "Qin Xiang, it was Dad who didn't take good care of your mom. I'm sorry."

Qin Xiang looked at her father and her heart softened, "Dad, I know how confused she is. It's not your fault. You can't always keep an eye on the family. This must have been instigated by Qin Jun and Tanaka Mei to my mom. With her confused personality, she doesn't know east, west, west or north when she's coaxed. It's normal for her to follow." Qin Baotian

sighed, "In the future, I will try to take your mom with me wherever I go,

so that they won't mess you up." Qin Xiang didn't care, "There's no need to be like this. One day when I go farther, they won't be able to find me."

"Xiangxiang..." Qin Baotian felt very upset when he looked at his daughter. He knew that he and his wife, as well as his eldest brother and his wife, had let Qin Xiang down, but she was detained at the Public Security Bureau...

Qin Baotian couldn't bring himself to ask Qin Xiang to release Qin Jun and his wife, so he sighed and said, "You guys go back. I'll take your mother back."

After saying that, Qin Baotian lowered his head and went in directly.

Qin Xiang's heart also relaxed.

Just now she was very worried that her father would beg her to let Qin Jun and his wife go.

If that really happened, she would probably lose a father after losing her mother.

She is now a complete egoist, and she can abandon anything that is not good for her.

"Xiangxiang, don't feel psychologically pressured, you did nothing wrong." Qin Hai didn't like the housekeeping business. In his own opinion, he was a little cold-tempered. He didn't know how much money his sister made, but he knew it was not that easy to be a self-employed person just by listening and seeing.

Qin Xiang nodded, "I think so too."

Qin Yang said, "Let's go, you still have to study when you go back."

Qin Hai had to go to work, so he hurried to the factory. The brother and sister went straight back to the courtyard and did what they had to do.

Things like this can be covered up for a while, but not forever. Sooner or later, everyone in Qinjiatun will know about it.

As for how Tanaka Mei and his wife ruined her reputation, Qin Xiang didn't care much. Although that place was where she grew up and she was attached to it, she felt that she would be farther and farther away from it. In the end, it might just be a place where she would go back to visit her parents during the holidays.

She no longer cared about how others looked at her.

If she really cared, she would have found a rope to hang herself on the tree when she got divorced.

Now, for Qin Xiang, only making money can relieve his worries.

Money can relieve all worries.

Qin Xiang went to study, and Qin Yang opened the back door, took out the small shelf, and then put things on it to start selling socks, underwear, small accessories and the like.

The back of the house faces the department store, which is the place with the largest flow of people in the county.

Qin Yang has experience in gathering people, so he started shouting at the top of his voice after putting things on the table. However, he has been walking outside all year round, and he has a murderous aura on him. Even if he looks very handsome, it is inevitable that people will be afraid. After shouting

for a while, only a few girls came up hesitantly to ask.

Qin Yang then told the price, "You can try on the small accessories. If you don't like them, you don't have to pay."

Qin Yang had tried hard to look less scary, but his personality was like that, and it was really hard to change.

In the end, a little girl really liked a hairpin, so she gave him the money and ran away quickly.

Qin Yang breathed a sigh of relief, at least the store was open.

He rubbed his face and was about to say something when he suddenly saw someone staring at him. When he looked up, he saw Li Wenjing.

Li Wenjing looked at Qin Yang with red eyes, "Qin Yang, why are you setting up a stall here? You would rather set up a stall than have a relationship with me? As long as you agree to have a relationship with me, I will let my dad arrange a formal job for you. What do you think?"

Qin Yang glanced at her coldly, and the pressure around him dropped. "I say it again, go away. I have told you countless times that I have nothing to do with you."

Li Wenjing began to wipe her tears, "What's wrong with me?"

"It has nothing to do with me whether you are good or not. There is no possibility for us. Even if you want to die, don't blame me." Qin Yang sneered, "Don't use your tricks to scare me. I, Qin Yang, didn't grow up to be scared. The only people you can threaten if you want to die are your parents. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me."

"Bad luck."

Qin Yang simply stopped setting up the stall, rolled up his things, put them in the house, and slammed the door shut.

Qin Xiang heard the noise and came out, surprised, "What happened?"

Qin Yang's face was not good, "Nothing, I met a crazy dog."

This reminded Qin Xiang of Li Wenjing who she saw at the market. Could it be that he saw her?

Qin Xiang hesitated for a moment, but still reminded, "Third brother, I see that girl is not in a good mood, you must be careful not to fall into her trap, once you get involved with such a person, it will be very difficult to get rid of her. We can't let such a person ruin our lives."

"I know." Qin Yang rubbed her head, "Okay, you go and study, anyway, these things are not in a hurry to sell, just come along."

Qin Xiang smiled, "Okay."

The next morning, the brother and sister got up early, ate two bowls of noodles, and then went out to catch up.

As for Qingshui County, there are a total of twelve towns, but not every town has a big market, so sometimes when a big market comes, people from several towns go to catch up.

Qin Xiang and Qin Yang were now familiar with the market, so they went directly to the big one. Just like the previous two times, everything went smoothly.

They started the market in the morning and closed the stall at three in the afternoon. The brother and sister worked around the clock. This time, they spent four days to sell all the goods, including socks and underwear.

Now it was the end of the month, and the weather was gradually getting warmer.

Qin Xiang counted the money in his hand, and quickly called Deputy Factory Director He again, transferred more than 6,000 yuan, and ordered 1,200 pieces of clothing to be sent.

Deputy Factory Manager He didn't know what to say to Qin Xiang, "This is because the delivery has delayed your shipment."

Qin Xiang knew that they were just making quick money, and supply was indeed very important. No one knew if there would be other people selling at the next big market. So it was naturally better to ship the goods earlier. Just the delivery of the goods by the big money would delay three or four days, and a lot of goods could be sold.

But the funds were limited, and there was nothing he could do about it. He could only sell the goods and then pay them to ship the goods. Now the stall fees at the big market were cheap, and there was nothing else to buy. Qin Xiang did not pay back the money to the two brothers for the time being, and used all the money from the sales to purchase goods. Buying one more piece of clothing would be a profit.

However, Qin Xiang was very grateful to Deputy Director He, "You have helped a lot. You have kept an eye on everything from shipment to delivery, which has saved time."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiang immediately bought some local specialties and sent them to Deputy Director He and Director Feng. These were favors that had to be maintained.

When the next batch of goods arrived, it was also time for Qin Xiang to rush for the second round of collection.

When Qin Xiang arrived at the Dazhuang Township Market, he found that things had changed.

There were other self-employed people selling clothes at the market.

And they were placed in the good position where Qin Xiang and the others had placed their clothes before. Although the two young men felt a little embarrassed when they saw them, they still turned their heads away.

Qin Yang's face was not good, "I'll go over and take a look."

Qin Xiang held him back, "Third brother, what are you looking at now? Can you beat them up and drive them away? Besides, they are just competing normally, there is no reason for us to cause unpleasantness with them."

This situation was anticipated before she planned to rush to the market.

Ningcheng has poorly developed clothing factories like Xiangyanghong. They also have such clothing factories in Linshi and even Qingshui County. They have no connections in the local area and can only purchase goods from Xiangyanghong Clothing Factory. Then people with connections in the local area can naturally get goods from local factories and sell them here.

This is all fair competition.

Even if you go to Linshi or the provincial capital to sell, such things are inevitable.

Especially when rushing to the big market, everyone only pays attention to quality and price, and the style requirements are not high, so these are the only two things that can be worked on.

The only thing Qin Xiang was worried about was that the other party would lower the price in order to compete with them, which would not be a good thing.

It was only seven or eight o'clock and there were not many people.

Qin Xiang thought about it, asked Qin Yang to watch the stall, and she walked over to the stall.

Zhao Ming and Zhao Liang, the brothers, looked at Qin Xiang coming over, feeling a little embarrassed. Zhao Liang said, "Brother, why is she coming over? Will

she scold us?" Zhao Ming was older after all, so he calmed down and said, "What are you afraid of? There are so many people selling the same clothes in this market. Our goods are from legitimate channels, and she can't do anything to us. And her third brother didn't come over, which means she is not here to fight with us."

Zhao Liang was relieved when he heard what Zhao Ming said.

In fact, the two brothers had observed Qin Xiang's clothes stall several times, and they secretly calculated that they made a lot of money.

Thinking that they had a crooked relative working in a clothing factory in the city, they shamelessly went to the door and bought a batch of clothes. The state-owned factories here don't like to sell to individual businesses, so they said good things and followed their relatives to find leaders to give gifts to get some backlogs of inventory.

Of course, they didn't know how much Qin Xiang's clothes cost, and the price of the goods they got was not too cheap, so just now the two brothers were still arguing about how much they should sell them for.

Zhao Liang meant that they should charge one cent lower than Qin Xiang. Although they would earn less, they would still ship more. Zhao Ming was a little hesitant, thinking that this was not a good idea. What if they were one cent cheaper and Qin Xiang was even cheaper? Could they still keep charging lower?

Who knew that Qin Xiang would come over?

Seeing the two brothers looking at her warily, Qin Xiang smiled, "Hello, I'm Qin Xiang. You should know that I have set up a stall here before."

Zhao Ming looked at her and said, "Although I'm sorry, this is how it is in this market. Whoever pays first gets to choose first. The things we pay first are ours."

Qin Xiang nodded, "I know, you don't have to be nervous. I'm not here to grab a stall. I'm here to talk to you about something."

"What's the problem?" Zhao Ming looked at her warily.

Qin Xiang got straight to the point, "You've seen it too. If nothing unexpected happens, we may be the only two companies selling clothes at this market. I want to ask how much you plan to sell?"

"Why should we tell you?" Zhao Liang blurted out, "We are competitors."

Qin Xiang chuckled, "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me now. When there are more people and guests ask you, you won't tell them? I will know sooner or later. I said I came here to discuss problems, not to quarrel."

Zhao Ming asked Zhao Liang to shut up, and then said to Qin Xiang, "Then you tell me."

Qin Xiang said, "You also know that my family sells it for eight yuan per piece and fifteen taels per piece. I hope you will also follow this price. As for how much it sells, it depends on our own ability." Zhao Ming

frowned, "Do you still have socks? "I can give you socks for free, but we don't have any. If we really sell them, we will lose money."

Qin Xiang smiled, "Yes, I still have socks for free. But if you insist on selling at a price lower than mine, I don't mind having a price war with you. I don't know how much you pay for the goods, but I pay very little for them. But you should also think clearly that once you start a price war, it will never end and the profit will be reduced. In the future, when you set up your stall again, it will be impossible to raise the price again. Why bother to lose, don't you think?"
