After eating and drinking, Jiang Shiyue and Director Chen returned to the black market.
No one except Mr. Qiao Si would dare to swallow so many trendy and revised clothes.
Mr. Qiao Si seemed to be planning to go out.
Jiang Shiyue paused at the open secret door on the back wall, and finally understood why she never saw Mr. Qiao Si and his men coming in or out every time she came to the black market.
It turns out that people don't go through the main entrance at all, and this is just a front yard at best.
Mr. Qiao Si was obviously more interested in Jiang Shiyue, who had fled but returned. He waved his hand to send away the woman who was following him with a look of grievance, then stepped back and sat on the sofa, raising his hand to signal Jiang Shiyue to sit with Director Chen.
Jiang Shiyue and Director Chen did not sit down. They stood opposite Mr. Qiao Si, thinking about finishing the conversation as soon as possible and leaving.
After Jiang Shiyue finished speaking, Fourth Master Qiao laughed for a long time before speaking, "I knew you were brave, but I didn't expect you to be this bold! You're so bold as to ask for two thousand sets of work clothes! Do I look like a thug?"
Hanke, here means fool.
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
As for laughing as if you were hearing a joke?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qiao Si, we were wrong. We'll leave now." Director Chen pinched the edge of Jiang Shiyue's sleeve and pulled it out with force.
Jiang Shiyue glanced down at Director Chen's shaking hands without moving, then turned to Fourth Master Qiao. "Fourth Master Qiao, I came back because I think you're a man of your word. You said you'd take as many clothes as I need to alter! I'll be responsible for altering these two thousand sets, what about you? Will you accept them?"
Of course, I, Jiang Shiyue, am not someone who never gets enough of taking advantage. Fourth Master, since you have accepted these two thousand sets of clothes, how about we start a business together?
Director Chen was so scared that he broke out in cold sweats. It was difficult for him to stop Jiang Shiyue, so he could only keep winking at her and ask her to leave.
The factory closed down, but at least everyone was still alive. If you angered Mr. Qiao Si, you might not see the sun tomorrow.
Mr. Qiao Si didn't say anything and stared at Jiang Shiyue.
Jiang Shiyue clearly felt a strong sense of oppression.
So this is the aura of Mr. Qiao Si.
It is indeed very strong.
Director Chen next to him was the head of a factory after all, and he felt uneasy standing there. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat off his face over and over again.
Unfortunately, she is Jiang Shiyue from fifty years later. The clients she meets at the negotiation table are all billionaires. In terms of aura, there is no one worse than Mr. Qiao Si.
Jiang Shiyue's name also begins with "Zong", but the situation is stronger than she is right now. Fourth Master Qiao is the boss and she is nothing.
Despite this, Jiang Shiyue did not dodge and looked into Mr. Qiao's eyes.
After a long while, Mr. Qiao Si finally spoke: "Tell me first, what kind of business do you want to start with?"
"Jeans." Jiang Shiyue said concisely.
Jeans have been around for a long time, but they only became popular in China after the reform and opening up.
At present, a small number of jeans have entered the market in some developed regions, and the supply is in short supply.
As for the denim jacket, we will come to it a little later.
Mr. Qiao Si's eyes flashed, he sat up straight, and his suspicious eyes swept back and forth across Jiang Shiyue's face.
Director Chen whispered to Jiang Shiyue, "We don't have jeans in our factory!"
They only sell work clothes.
"But the fabrics you use to make work clothes should include work cloth, right?"
Director Chen nodded, "Yes!"
Work clothes also come in different grades.
In Yincheng, only factories in the industrial sector would issue denim work clothes. Workers wearing denim felt superior to others, considered genuine members of the "working class."
The rest, such as commercial offices and factories, all wear plain and khaki work clothes.
Although Director Chen and his team had produced some work clothes made of denim, they found it even harder to sell them.
Big factories don’t want it, and small factories can’t afford it.
He didn't understand why Jiang Shiyue asked this?
Mr. Qiao Si guessed Jiang Shiyue's intention and asked, "Do you want to change your work clothes from denim to jeans?"
Jiang Shiyue nodded.
Director Chen's face changed drastically and he waved his hands quickly, "No, no, no, we won't change it, we can't change it!" He didn't dare to change it.
There is a line in a song: "Wearing jeans is like recognizing the United States as your godfather." It means that wearing jeans is like recognizing the United States as your godfather.
To put it bluntly, wearing jeans is capitalism and you will be arrested.
Fourth Master Qiao pointed at Director Chen and asked Jiang Shiyue, "Are you sure you want me to cooperate with such a wretch?" He then turned to Director Chen with a look of disdain, "What era is this? Just saying something like 'jeans' would scare you into peeing your pants! You're a director after all, and that's all you have? You're not even as brave as a little girl! No wonder your factory can't survive!"
Director Chen: “…”
He opened his mouth angrily, but didn't know what to say to Mr. Qiao Si, so he could only close it again.
Seeing this, Fourth Master Qiao not only didn't restrain himself but instead stabbed Director Chen again, "You rotten coward!"
This is also a local dialect, meaning garbage and waste!
Jiang Shiyue frowned, and her tone towards Mr. Qiao Si turned a bit colder. "Mr. Qiao Si, Director Chen is different from you. You are the boss of this area, and he is the director of a formal state-owned garment factory. He is a gentleman and behaves in an upright manner.
You can't curse people just because they don't agree with your style, right?! Fish have their own paths, shrimp have their own paths, each one goes his own way!
However, there were state-owned factories everywhere, and the factory director wasn't worth much. Furthermore, state-owned factories came in all sizes, and a small factory director like Director Chen wasn't as high-ranking as a workshop director at a large factory.
Fourth Master Qiao started laughing again, and while laughing he asked Jiang Shiyue, "So which path did you take? The shrimp path or the fish path?"
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
Fourth Master Qiao asked again, "You've already said that I'm not on the same page as this upright Factory Director Chen, yet you still want me to cooperate with him?"
