Seeing this, Meng Zhen had no choice but to explain the matter again to his aunt Fu Xiao.
Fu Xiao was still skeptical: "Xiao Meng, we are all women, you won't lie to your aunt, right?"
Meng Zhen: "Aunt, I'm telling the truth."
Fu Xiao sighed: "You should be able to understand your aunt's feelings. If something like this happened to Xiaozhou, you would definitely do the same as me..."
Meng Zhen simply couldn't bear to think about what would happen if Liu Yuzhou was framed by someone.
Seeing that his wife finally believed him, Ye Shen stepped forward and said to Xiao, "Okay, okay, you've asked, now you can rest assured. Let's have a good meal as a family and stop dwelling on these troubles."
"Let's go." Fu Xiao turned around and called Ye Ning and Meng Zhen.
The family found a Cantonese restaurant nearby.
At the dinner table, Ye Ning happened to talk to Meng Zhen about the business situation of the clothing store.
"Xiao Meng, that Xu Lina is really strong. She's got some investment from the US and introduced a US clothing brand called C&M. They have a fast fashion style, are cheaper than ours, and have newer styles more quickly."
"Your Zhen brand hasn't been affected, but Uniqlo's business has been largely wiped out."
Ye Shen also interjected:
"This brand is so cheap, it's like it's free. You can buy a short-sleeved shirt for just 5 yuan."
"No matter how much Uniqlo cuts costs, the cost of a short-sleeved shirt can never be less than 8 yuan. This is almost a free-for-all."
Meng Zhen knows about fast fashion brands. In the future, there will be several such foreign brands, such as HM, CA, and Zara, which are almost all over China.
However, these brands entered China in the late 1990s.
“Mom, uncle, don’t worry, this C&M low-price strategy won’t last long.
The reason why they can keep the prices so low and still make a profit is because their OEM factories are in Southeast Asian countries.
Those countries are still colonies, and the working people are severely exploited. Many factory workers do not get any wages at all and are just given a meal to eat.
Naturally, with less labor costs, the cost of clothing is reduced.”
This kind of sweatshop that makes money by sucking human blood is destined to not last far.
Ye Shen said, "Then how should we deal with this? Actually, my sister and I are planning to come to Yue City to investigate and expand our store. But we're afraid of being too aggressive."
Meng Zhen: "It's right to continue expanding. Now is the time to seize the market. Although our business in the capital has been largely reduced, this C&M has not yet fully expanded nationwide."
"Let's take advantage of this opportunity to grab good locations in other cities. Not only should we grab them, we can even buy them directly."
Land prices across the country are now at a historical low, and will continue to rise from now on.
Now is the perfect time to buy land.
The key is that the company has money in its account now, so we can buy whatever we want.
Liu Yuzhou also supported his wife's point of view: "Uncle, you should buy some good land in Yue City and nearby cities."
The nature of Liu Yuzhou's work determines that he notices changes earlier than ordinary people.
Since he said so, Ye Ning and his sister naturally became more determined to buy the land.
Ye Ning came to Yue City this time for another purpose.
After she regained her memory, she remembered the orphan of a comrade-in-arms whom she and Liu Zhenxing had adopted together.
Before Ye Ning lost his memory, the child lived with the Liu family for a period of time.
Later, when Song Jingzhi came into the family, she sent the child back to her hometown.
My hometown is in the countryside of Yue City.
This time, Ye Ning wanted to confirm how the child was doing and see how he could help.
