Su Yujing hesitated for a long time, his mind racing as he considered the pros and cons. It wasn't that he couldn't agree to it, but his father was the current investor in the garment factory, and he couldn't make a promise lightly.
But...this woman seems quite capable. Overall, he's still willing to play the role of a talent scout.
"No problem, but we need to sign an agreement, and then we'll tell you about the current situation of the garment factory."
Da Shuan and Er Shuan listened in stunned silence, completely baffled by their boss's actions. After all, aside from her good looks, this woman didn't seem to have many other advantages.
Would you really be crazy to agree to her request?
"good."
Jiang Yu answered decisively, and she was quite confident that she could help Qingyun Garment Factory avoid future troubles.
After reaching an agreement, Jiang Yu continued making clothes, but the sound of the sewing machine made Su Yujing feel very bored.
"Young Master Su, could you perhaps have your men leave for a moment?"
Every time someone passed by the store and wanted to come in to look at the clothes, they were scared away by the group of burly men. It wasn't until the seventh customer was scared away that Jiang Yu finally couldn't sit still any longer.
Su Yujing glanced at Da Shuan's fierce appearance and smacked him on the head.
"Do you laugh? I'm asking you, do you laugh?"
Da Shuan's head throbbed with pain from the beating, but he dared not retaliate. After the boss finished venting his anger, he retreated to the side, forced a smile, and asked his underlings:
"Am I being too kind?"
"......"
The person being questioned looked at his expression, which was even uglier than crying, and felt goosebumps all over their body.
Under Da Shuan's threat, he answered against his conscience:
"Shan, Brother Shuan, you seem like a kind-hearted person."
After finishing her work, Jiang Yu looked at Su Yujing sitting in the chair, drowsy and half-asleep.
He thought he should tell Liu Cui in case something happened and she was afraid to come looking for him.
Jiang Yu didn't offer much commentary on her future partner and his henchmen, only telling them to keep an eye on the shop before leaving.
As for Da Shuan, his boss's actions just now made it very clear that he definitely had feelings for this woman. If he wanted a promotion and a raise, it would be good to get along well with her.
She took her request very seriously. After receiving the answer, Jiang Yu went to Liu Cui's shop.
The dessert shop was on the other side of the stairs, in the opposite direction from her clothing store. When I went there, there weren't many people.
"Jiang Yu, are you alright? Did they give you any trouble?"
Upon seeing her enter the store, Liu Cui hurriedly looked at her and anxiously asked questions. Those men were really too fierce; even passing customers were afraid and avoided them.
"It's alright."
Before he could finish speaking, a couple entered through the door. They were carrying small cakes and didn't look too happy.
"Hello, are you looking to buy a dessert?"
Liu Cui didn't notice that the small cakes the couple were holding were from her shop, and as usual, she treated them with extreme politeness.
"Desserts? How dare you even mention that?"
The woman slammed the box she was holding onto the table with a loud thud.
Not only Liu Cui, but even Jiang Yu was startled. Judging from the hostile looks of these two, they were probably about to start a fight.
"What kind of food did you make? It's not only disgusting, but it also gave my son diarrhea. We should call the police and have you all arrested for your unscrupulous practices."
After hearing her description and glancing at the cake on the table with only two bites left, Liu Cui was stunned.
Since opening her shop, she has always prioritized hygiene and safety. Many customers have concerns when buying food, so she goes to restock early every day. If there's any unsold food, she either eats it herself or takes it home for her family.
Of course, many customers feel comfortable coming to the store to shop, and we have accumulated quite a few loyal customers.
"Comrade, are you mistaken? The desserts in my shop are always made with fresh ingredients, and the ingredient list is clean, with no additives at all."
Liu Cui's explanation only enraged the man. He pushed aside the woman who was still arguing, pointed his index finger sharply at the cake, and then at her.
"Stop talking nonsense, or we'll smash up the store."
His voice was extremely loud, attracting many people to come and see what was going on. As more and more people gathered at the shop entrance, the female customer, as if she were a drama queen, began to complain about how unclean her shop was.
Seeing that things were spiraling out of control, Liu Cui was on the verge of tears. She softened her tone, pleadingly saying:
"I'm sorry, could you tell me if the price you paid was three cents? I'll compensate you."
Jiang Yu looked at the half-eaten cake on the table and immediately understood. This couple was clearly here to extort money; otherwise, why would they leave half a bite uneaten before coming to demand an explanation?
However, she had never dealt with this kind of situation before and didn't know how to resolve it. In short, if this matter continues to escalate, the only negative impact will be on the dessert shop.
"Three cents? You make it sound so easy. Does that mean you can just gloss over my son's illness? Besides compensation for the illness itself, there's also the psychological damage. I won't even ask you for a price, in short, ten dollars."
Ten yuan... Not only Jiang Yu, but even the onlookers were stunned. They had heard of people asking for exorbitant prices, but they never imagined that a small cake could be sold for such a low price.
Jiang Yu clearly saw Liu Cui's body tremble slightly. As far as she knew, the cake shop's net profit was only forty or fifty yuan a month. She used only the best ingredients and ensured the freshness of the food. Earning about thirty yuan a month was considered quite good.
"Could you please grant me a two-day extension? I don't have that much cash right now, so I can't give it to you at all."
What Liu Cui said was true. She used most of her money to buy goods, and the rest was used to buy medicine for her mother and living expenses for her younger brother.
Her younger brother works part-time and rarely needs her help; she only occasionally provides some in emergencies. However, her mother cannot stop taking her medication even for a day.
"Give us two days' grace? Do you think this is a debt collection? Let me tell you, if you don't pay, you can forget about keeping this shop open. This is a matter of life and death. If we call the police, do you think your whole family can get away with it? Especially that mother who's been bedridden for a long time, none of them will have an easy time."
Hearing her mother mentioned, Liu Cui's heart skipped a beat. Absolutely not. She looked at Jiang Yu with teary eyes:
"Could you lend me ten yuan first? I'll pay you back at the end of the month."
Upon hearing that there was hope of getting money, the couple exchanged a glance and continued to communicate with them in an aggressive manner.
"Okay, then go call the police. Let the police decide what's going on and see what's really going on."
Jiang Yu had already seen through their little trick and was waiting for their next words.
