Father Xue took his wife and children to travel south, and also took little Yangyang with him.
Ranran also clamored to go together, but unfortunately he had to go to class, and everyone refused.
The little guy was very disappointed and secretly cried several times. Firstly, he was reluctant to leave his brother, and secondly, he was sad that he could not travel to the south.
Dad Xue said with a smile: "Grandpa and grandma promise you that they will pick you up as soon as you go on winter vacation. Then we will fly to the South Island together, where we will wear short-sleeves every day and play in the water at the beach every day."
After hearing this, Ranran finally felt better and wholeheartedly looked forward to the winter vacation coming soon.
Cheng Tianyuan and Xue Ling drove them to the airport.
Dad Xue smiled and said: "We are not sure about the journey. We will go wherever it is fun and stay a little longer wherever it is pleasant."
"You call once every three days." Xue Ling rubbed Xiao Yangyang's head: "You don't miss your daughter, but I still miss my son!"
Mother Xue laughed and scolded: "I know, I know!"
Little Yangyang was extremely excited. He was carrying a big travel bag given to him by his uncle. It was filled with all kinds of delicious food and several maps. Before setting off, his heart almost flew away.
Xue Ling hugged his father and mother, and then hugged his son.
"Okay, you all go and have fun! A-Yuan and I will make good money so that you can have fun without any worries! Have fun!"
Father Xue smiled happily, holding his wife's hand with one hand and his grandson with the other, and walked into the security gate.
…
Half a month later, Xue Ling and Xue Heng went south again.
They went south to Gzhou before, but unfortunately they couldn't find a suitable order and there were no new projects to cooperate with, so they returned disappointed.
This time, they deliberately missed the large-scale trade fair and searched for it along the southern coast.
Xue Heng is engaged in foreign trade business, but he still only wants to make money in his old profession.
Xue Ling doesn't think so, saying that domestic orders are also very objective, especially in cities with large populations in the south. The demand for clothes is very large, so don't focus on this area like other colleagues.
So, she took Xue Heng from city to city.
Xue Heng saw that she looked familiar wherever she went, not only on roads, but also on business and food.
After he was so surprised, he started to praise again and again.
After working around for more than half a month, Xue Ling finally signed his first order with a southern supplier, for 100,000 pairs of jeans next spring.
Xue Heng always refused to accept it at first. He felt that denim was rough and hard, and since there was no culture of wearing jeans in China, it would probably not work and be popularized.
However, Xue Ling insisted on signing it, saying that this was a great opportunity.
"It doesn't matter if we don't have a lot of denim. We'll make the order with the manufacturer. No one is competing with us now. The original purchase price is low and we can make more money."
Xue Hengwei said: "The denim in China is not very good and there are few manufacturers. Where can we find it? The price is low because no one wants it."
"No one wants it, we just want it." Xue Ling said, "Everyone wants it, and the price will be too high. I'm going to find one or two suppliers to keep the price as low as possible, and we'll make a profit on this batch.
Already."
"No!" Xue Heng smiled bitterly: "One hundred thousand is not a lot. Why are you looking for so many suppliers?"
"There will be more and more orders in the future." Xue Ling said: "I will make two batches of hundreds of thousands of pieces for Ahu to sell."
Xue Heng frowned and asked: "Where are you going to find it? People in several provinces in the imperial capital don't even know what denim is!"
"I know." Xue Ling replied: "There is one in Gzhou."
Xue Heng still disapproved and said: "These pants are stiff when worn on the body. Not to mention not beautiful, they must be uncomfortable. At most they are meant to be durable."
"No." Xue Ling explained: "There are already softer denim in China, and the color is dark blue."
Xue Heng rolled his eyes and asked, "Can't I persuade you?"
"Yes." Xue Ling said: "I am your sister. If you don't listen to me, you won't make any money. Do you understand?"
Seeing that he really couldn't persuade him, Xue Heng had no choice but to say nothing, feeling very unhappy in his heart.
But in retrospect, Xue Ling is not short of money. Even if the clothes cannot be sold, the loss is still a partial loss. No matter how much the loss is, it will not be serious.
But his factory... might suffer heavy losses.
He earns all his money, unlike Xue Ling who relies on real shops and shop rentals. His income is huge and stable, so he really doesn't dare to take risks.
How dare he invest in something he doesn't like.
Xue Ling glanced at him, knowing that he disagreed, and couldn't help but ask: "Let me ask you this - we have known each other for so many years, when have you seen me fail in investment? Huh?"
Xue Heng was stunned and had nothing to say.
So, after Xue Ling signed the order, he took him to G state and quickly found a denim supplier. The quality of the goods was average and very cheap.
Xue Ling picked the best one, then paid the goods and asked the manufacturer to help the freight go north immediately.
Water transportation was the cheapest, so they chose shipping.
After running around for days, the weather in the south was suddenly cold and hot. Xue Heng soon couldn't stand it anymore and caught a cold.
Xue Ling bought him a plane ticket and asked him to return to the imperial capital first.
Then, she continued to wander around various big cities in the south, and finally went to the provincial capital to find Mr. and Mrs. Ahu.
Ahu didn't expect that she would come over, and he burst out laughing in surprise.
"Ah Qing is at home! Sister-in-law, I will take you back immediately! If she sees you, she will jump up in surprise!"
Xue Ling nodded: "I'll go back later, let me rest for a while first."
Ahu pointed to the store and explained to her: "You haven't seen it with your own eyes as it was decorated like this last year! The business in the past two years is not better than before, but it's pretty decent."
Xue Ling smiled bitterly: "In the past two years, you have been the most stable merchant who has placed orders for the factory. It is true that your income in the past two years has been less than before, but overall it is still very stable."
The amount she and A-Hu shared was 10% more than before. A-Hu originally only had 10%, but Xue Ling later gave him 10% more. The reason was that she was far away in the imperial capital and really had no time to take care of the business here.
Ah Hu is the one who is doing everything, and the other is working hard to make money. It's hard for her to score so many points in total.
Ahu was very grateful, but it was a pity that business was a bit deserted and not as good as before.
He shook his head and explained: "Today's consumer demand is very strange. Sometimes they like this, and sometimes that is fashionable. It always changes, and I'm fed up with it! Those bell-bottom pants were so popular in the past, and they sold so well!
I can’t tell now! Fortunately, it’s winter, and the sweaters I ordered are still selling well.”
Xue Ling smiled and said: "Nowadays, we pay attention to fashion. We can't stay the same and we have to follow the fashion, otherwise we won't make any money!"
"Sister-in-law, why did you come here alone?" Ahu couldn't help but look around: "I called Ayuan a few days ago and he said that you and A Heng have been out for several days. Where is Xue Heng, the young master? No one is seen.
?”
Xue Ling explained: "He is sick, so I asked him to return to the imperial capital first. The main reason I came here this time is to see you, and also to discuss something with you."
"You tell me!" Ahu said with a smile, "If my sister-in-law has any instructions, just tell me. I'll listen."
Xue Ling smiled softly and took out a piece of denim from his backpack.
"Ahu, I'm going to make these pants next. A clothing supplier has ordered 100,000 pieces. I plan to produce 20 more pieces and ship them south to sell them to you."
Ahu was stunned and asked: "What is this? Fabric? It feels a little rough."
