Translator: 549690339

That’s why, no matter how thriving the Liangmei Clothing Factory is, it has been blacklisted by Qin Xue.

Qin Xue greeted the security guard and headed towards the next factory, the Aiguo Clothing Factory, which was just a few dozen meters away.

As customary, Qin Xue registered at the security office before she was allowed in. The security guard here was not an uncle but an older man, who introduced himself as Li.

“Mr. Guo, this young lady is looking for you.” Uncle Li accompanied Qin Xue to the director’s office and left.

“Mr. Guo, nice to meet you, I’m Qin Xue.” After Qin Xue introduced herself, she extended her hand.

“Hello, I’m Guo Aiguo. What can I do for you?” Guo Aiguo shook her hand, let go, then looked at Qin Xue to inquire.

“I’ve come to Aiguo Clothing Factory to discuss a business deal. Are you interested?”

Gazing at Mr. Guo’s thick eyebrows, square face, and naive look, Qin Xue directly stated her intention without beating around the bush.

“A business deal? What kind of deal? Just say it, young lady. I’m planning on shutting down the factory, there’s no business to discuss.”

Guo Aiguo wants to continue, but without new designs, they have no new styles.

All their clients and orders have been stolen by Liangmei, there’s really no business to discuss anymore.

He planned to close the factory once the work at hand was finished. Any further delay would only drive them into loss.

“Closing up? Why? Is it because there’s no new models, or is it because you can’t compete with others?

If it’s the former, don’t worry, I have a solution.” Qin Xue was truly fearless regarding this.

Even if she herself was unfamiliar with such business affairs, hadn’t she gained knowledge from decades in the future? Copying that should work fine.

“Well, both contribute to the problem. It’s not like I don’t want to discuss it with you, but recently, without orders, the business is running at a loss.

If I keep going like this, I won’t be able to hold on anymore. I can’t cheat you with a clear conscience.” Guo Aiguo was reluctant, but there was no other choice.

“Mr. Guo, is this factory yours?” If Guo Aiguo was unwilling to continue, perhaps she could rent it and run it herself?

“Yes, this factory is mine. It has been many years, but now I have no choice but to shut it down.” Guo Aiguo looked around, full of sorrow.

“May I ask, Mr. Guo, what are your plans after closing the factory?”

“Oh, you’re asking about that. Well, nothing much. Probably just take a rest after closing, and head south. I don’t know any other work.”

Guo Aiguo had heard that reform and opening up was on the horizon and thought it would be better to try his luck down south since he was out of business.

Qin Xue stayed silent after hearing this. Heading south was indeed the best course of action during this time. Lots of people had found success by going south in the Eighties.

However, after meeting Guo Aiguo, Qin Xue really didn’t want to give up on their collaboration.

But she wouldn’t be able to afford to run a factory on her own. “Mr. Guo, hear my opinion before deciding whether or not to shut down.”

Seeing that Qin Xue was still tenacious, Guo Aiguo figured there’s no harm in listening, so he gestured for Qin Xue to sit on the sofa and prepared to listen.

“This is the case. I have designed some clothes and wanted your factory to produce them, but since I’ve heard you are closing down,

I thought maybe I can discuss this in another way. You already have a ready factory along with the machinery and workers.

What you lack are new design sketches and business strategies. What if I use my designs to invest in your factory?

Here are the clothes I’ve designed. You can take a look first. I’ll prepare a business plan and send it to you.

You decide whether you want to collaborate with me after going through it. What do you think?”

Qin Xue took out the design sketches from her bag and handed them to Guo Aiguo. As for the business plan, she had never written one before.

But she had written academic papers and medical reports before which should help her out here.

Guo Aiguo was surprised looking at the designs Qin Xue had. A young lady of just about 20 had such skill in designing clothes.

His face showed hesitation. Indeed, if this Qin Xue had a real solution to change things, it wasn’t a bad idea to try. “Alright, show me the business plan later and we’ll see.”

“Alright, are you available this time tomorrow? We can meet again then.” Guo Aiguo had finally relented, and Qin Xue had to seize this opportunity..
