Chapter 167 Collaboration with Lok-Wen Leong
"Yes, this is just the beginning. We will build other similar factories in the future."
Xia Youan's words gave the county magistrate a reassurance that their Fengling County had finally made it.
After returning, Chu Moyuan instructed Mingxian to arrange some manpower to repair the road between Pingyang County and Fengling County.
From now on, Xia Youan can drive to the factory, and no one can shake his wife.
Qingying and Xianling'er stayed in the palace to take care of the shop and collect embroidery, while Xia Youan and Xing Yinan returned to the modern era.
The two first went to Liang Luowen's media company.
Xia Youan had never been here before, and the receptionist didn't recognize them. "Excuse me, do you two have a reservation?"
"Uh~no. But I am your boss's cousin, please tell her." Xia Youan didn't expect that his cousin was so powerful and the company was quite large.
"OK, just a second."
When Liang Luowen heard that his cousin had come, he thought something had happened at home and quickly had someone bring her up.
The media company is very large, occupying three floors of the entire building. The employees are rushing around and look very busy.
The receptionist took them to the floor where Lok-Wen Liang was, walked through the office area, and directly took them to Lok-Wen Liang's office.
When Liang Luowen saw Xia Youan coming in, he quickly stood up and took them to the reception area to sit down.
"An An, what happened?"
"Cousin, Lao Xing and I plan to sell Hanfu and embroidery, all of which are handmade, and we want to do it both online and offline.
We both have little experience in online operations, so we'd like you to guide us."
After hearing this, Liang Luowen finally felt relieved.
"I thought something happened at home. It's not a big deal. Why did you want to sell these things? Have you found a source of goods?"
"We wanted to sell these things because we have a supply. I wonder if there is a market for them? We brought some samples here, and my cousin will help us check them first."
When Xia Youan came, she brought the clothes that Chu Moyuan had prepared for her for her daily wear, including clothes for all seasons.
There are also some small things that Xing Yinan bought from the embroidery shop this time.
When Xia Youan unfolded the clothes, Liang Luowen was amazed and carefully took them in his hands to admire them carefully.
"An An, are you sure this is for sale and not a collectible?"
Seeing Liang Luowen's expression, Xia Youan had an idea in her mind. She knew that there must be someone willing to pay for these exquisite things.
"Of course they are for sale. There may be some more common ones, but those will be sold separately. Cousin, do you think there will be a market for them?"
"Of course, I want to buy one to keep as a collection after seeing it. Are you interested in working with me? You guys will be responsible for the supply, and I'll be in charge of sales and brand image planning."
Xia Youan and Xing Yinan looked at each other and immediately nodded vigorously.
"I won't ask for more from you. As long as you can help me keep my capital, I want to use this to build my reputation. But there is a prerequisite. I must be the exclusive seller of this online."
Xia Youan hugged Liang Luowen excitedly, "I still have to rely on you, cousin, at the critical moment."
"Don't flatter me. Even if we're sisters, you have to assure me that this is all handmade. Don't use a machine to make up the numbers."
"Don't worry, sister, they are all handmade."
The online problem has been solved, and the only thing left is the offline physical store.
Xia Youan directly asked Xia Ronghai for a shop on the first floor of Dixin Building, and asked his father to renovate it.
For the more common embroidery products, they chose a shop in the ancient city.
The shops in the ancient city are still quite expensive. I don’t know if I can make enough rent. I’ll rent it for a year and see.
The ancient city is relatively close to the school, so we can just hire students who don’t have classes to look after the store on weekdays.
Everything is done, just waiting for the embroidery to be delivered.
Xia Youan suddenly wondered, how could business be so simple? It seemed like it could be solved just by talking.
This young lady didn't even think about the fact that there would be people to help her wherever she went.
"Old Xia, I suddenly feel like that half of Chengdu is a bit too much. It seems like I have nothing to do here!"
After going around in circles, Xing Yinan found that Xia You'an had been taken care of. This business was really a joke and there was no place for her to use her skills, although she was indeed of no use either.
"Don't say that. You're very useful. If I didn't drag you into this suffering, I wouldn't be willing to do this alone."
Xing Yinan: "..."
"Old Xia, so I'm just here to suffer for you? I like this job. It perfectly fits my goal of getting rich quickly while also having some free time."
The cooperation was settled, but Xia Youan's shop was not as popular as expected.
Samples of quilts, cotton clothes and autumn clothes were placed at the door so that customers could know what was being sold at a glance. However, no customers came in after a while.
Xia Youan began to fall into deep self-doubt.
On the way back from the trade center, Xing Yinan didn't want to see the sour and pedantic relationship between Chu Moyuan and Xia Youan, so she chose to ride with others.
Only Chu and Xia Youan were left in the car.
Xia Youan sat in the car in silence.
Seeing this, Chu Moyuan brought the person into his arms and asked, "Why are you unhappy again?"
Xia Youan suddenly lay down in Chu Moyuan's arms, arched his back like a little puppy, and found a comfortable position to lie down.
Chu Moyuan felt itchy and couldn't bear it.
Xia Youan said gloomily, "You said that the things I selected are what the people need now and are extremely useful. Why are there no customers buying them? Not even one person asked. I'm angry! Is there something wrong with my selection?"
Xia Youan was angry and expressed his dissatisfaction.
Chu Moyuan held up Xia Youan's face with both hands and made her look directly at him.
Then he said lovingly: “The things my baby chose are all excellent, but merchants are profit-driven. They haven’t asked you the price yet and think it will be very expensive.
For warming items like quilts and cotton clothes, wealthy families would usually buy the materials and have them sewed by embroiderers or maids and nannies.
Poor families would even buy the materials and sew by themselves.
Even businesses usually hire people to do these things, and rarely do they directly purchase finished products.
Otherwise, baby, why don't you consider selling cotton cloth and cotton instead?"
Xia Youan took the first part of the words to heart, but she didn't listen to the final suggestion. She felt that there was nothing wrong with her ideas, but the publicity was not in place.
Ask her to change now, she won’t accept!
After pondering for a moment, Xia Youan suddenly left Chu Moyuan's arms and stood up excitedly.
But Xia Youan forgot that he was in a car and his head hit the roof.
"Ouch~"
Chu Moyuan quickly pulled her back into his arms, rubbing her furry head, and asked distressedly, "What did you remember that made you so excited? Are you hurt?"
"I'm not convinced. I've thought about it and I have to give it another try."
Chu Moyuan looked at Xia Youan's impassioned expression with amusement, and asked softly, "Then how are you going to try again?"
“Set up a stall!”
