The next day, Ning Zhihuan got up very early. When Old Lady Ning called her to eat, she was already dressed and searching around in the room.
Old Mrs. Ning knocked on the half-open door, walked in, and asked, "Huanbao, what are you looking for?"
Ning Zhihuan turned around when she heard the voice and saw that it was Old Lady Ning, so she asked, "Grandma, have you seen my design drawings? I remember there are a few of them under this pillow."
Ning Zhihuan continued to search as he spoke, with some guesses in his mind.
Could it be that Ning Hong took it away again?
But, it shouldn't be like that.
Her attention should have been on Xiao Yuchi during this period, so how could she have the energy to search her house?
But this drawing has indeed disappeared.
Mrs. Ning paused for a moment, then smiled brightly: "Hey, you mean the white paper with the drawing on it?"
Ning Zhihuan nodded vigorously, "Do you know where it is?"
Old Mrs. Ning said nothing, smiled and walked towards her closet, where she found the A4 papers at the bottom of the clothes that she no longer wore during the changing seasons.
"Look, this paper fell down when I was helping you clean the house. I was afraid I'd lose it, so I put it under my clothes."
Ning Zhihuan felt relieved after taking the paper.
If her hand never heals, this might be her last work.
"Thank you, grandma." Ning Zhihuan thanked Old Lady Ning.
Old Mrs. Ning waved her hand, and the grandmother and granddaughter went to the main hall hand in hand to have breakfast.
After breakfast, Ning Zhihuan quietly asked Chen Zhu for one thousand yuan, which was not a small amount of money.
But Chen Zhu gave it without hesitation.
"Can you tell my aunt what you want so much money for?"
Although Ning Zhihuan always had her own ideas, which she had known for a long time, after all, this was a thousand yuan, not ten yuan, and Ning Zhihuan was still young, so she still had to ask for clarification.
To be honest, even if she used it all up, Chen Zhu wouldn't even blink, let alone feel sorry for it.
I'm afraid she'll use the money to make bad friends, or be threatened by someone.
Ning Zhihuan saw Chen Zhu's worry and said truthfully, "I've seen our business getting more and more prosperous. We're short on manpower, so I'm thinking of using machines to replace manual production. It's more efficient and saves costs."
Chen Zhu was a little slow to react when she heard this.
After a while, he said, "So what you mean? Are we going to open a factory?"
When these words came out, Chen Zhu herself was shocked.
Although they have some money now, they have no skills, no connections, and no land.
The workers are all hired on a temporary basis. How can we run the factory?
Ning Zhihuan shook his head. "No, no, we definitely can't afford to run a factory right now. We'll talk about the future later. The main thing now is to cooperate with the factory. Let's contact the factory first and ask them to make some samples. We need to improve the efficiency of the machine while ensuring quality and quantity."
After saying that, she raised the design drawing in her hand.
Chen Zhu finally understood what she meant, but she sighed that her niece was really a person who would make a big splash if she did.
This business mind has planned every step, and they just need to follow it.
"Okay, I support you. I don't have anything to do today, so why don't I go with you?"
Ning Zhihuan thought about it and finally nodded.
It’s easier to get things done with an adult around.
People nowadays treat people differently based on their background. Seeing that she is a child, they don’t know how they will try to fool her.
So the two of them set out on their journey to find the factory.
Ning Zhihuan had collected information in advance about the clothing factories within a ten-kilometer radius, and the two of them compared them one by one.
Speaking of which, there are quite a few garment factories nearby.
There are also seven or eight.
It’s just that some people look down on them, thinking that there is no point in doing anything, and are unwilling to join them in their “little fights”.
Or maybe the person in charge didn't even see them, so he just made up a random excuse to brush them off.
Some people said they would ask their boss for instructions but never came back. This kind of situation is very common.
Although a little angry, it was expected.
After all, a rural woman with a little girl doesn't look like she has a big order.
Ning Zhihuan felt even more fortunate that he had agreed to let Chen Zhu come along.
If I come here alone, I will return empty-handed.
Fortunately, there are still some factories that are more patient. Part of the reason is that they are on the verge of bankruptcy due to poor management, so they have the time to deal with them.
They compared them and finally chose the least conspicuous one.
Because their reception is more considerate and the price is cheaper.
Businessmen are always profit-driven.
The location of this garment factory is a bit remote, and Ning Zhihuan had to ask many people along the way before he finally found it.
The name is also very ordinary, Happiness Garment Factory, which looks like an old garment factory from the 1980s, nothing new.
Firstly, there was no novelty, and secondly, the clothing factory was located in a remote area, so naturally the business was not very good.
Plus, the boss looks dull and doesn't seem to know how to run a business.
"Let me get straight to the point. We're looking for a large order, and it's a long-term, ongoing collaboration, not a short-term one. I believe there's no problem in ensuring the garment factory's revival, so we want the most sincere price. We also need to sign a contract, one that keeps the designs confidential and provides for regular delivery, including a contract that requires us to be given priority if there's a conflict in schedule."
The boss was stunned by what he said. He was originally prepared to deal with both the big and the small.
He didn't expect that the little one would come up and beat him up, making him a little lost.
The boss was stunned. Ning Zhihuan knew that he needed time to digest what she said, so she didn't interrupt him.
She looked around and thought that this boss was passionate about starting a business and would do whatever he said.
The conditions in this factory are really appalling.
I don't know how long it has been since we last started working, but there are cobwebs all over the machines. If we are going to officially start production, we will have to do a thorough cleaning before that.
More importantly, I don’t know if he still has any employees.
After all, walking along the way, I only saw two or three people sparsely, which was pitifully few.
There are fewer people in this factory than machines. If you don’t know, you might think this is fully automated production.
The boss interrupted Ning Zhihuan's thoughts and said, "Can you tell me approximately what the shipment volume is? And what's the delivery time?"
"One thousand pieces, one week, many styles, and the styles will be made according to the design drawings." Ning Zhihuan raised the design drawings in his hand.
The boss wanted to get closer to see more clearly, but she refused.
"We'll talk about the design later. We'll solve them one by one."
It is impossible to show him the design drawings before signing a confidentiality agreement.
