On the day of the divorce, the CEO’s ex-husband suffered from morning sickness

The accommodation conditions in the factory are very average.

Chen Qingyu originally stayed in a hotel, but driving to the factory every day was really congested.

There are many people on the road and there are many stalls, so driving is slow.

When the aborigines see someone driving, they will knock on the windows to sell the things in their hands, and some even stuff them directly into the car windows.

One after another, even if you want to ignore them.

Chen Qingyu had no choice but to move his things to the rest room of the factory.

Fortunately, the factory's office and rest room are not in the same building as the workshop, which is relatively better.

However, such conditions obviously did not meet Gu Yanran's expectations.

She calmed down for a moment, then started to be picky about where she lived, "Chen Qingyu, I came all the way to find you, and you let me live in a place like this?"

Chen Qingyu brought her a box of milk and said with a sorry smile, "There's nothing we can do about it. The conditions here are like this."

"Don't worry, when the production of summer clothes is completed, I will definitely give you another place to live."

"During this period, please bear with me for a while."

"Be good, after this season's summer clothes are over, I will take you shopping. There is a big jade trading market nearby, and there are many good products in it. I will buy you whatever you like!"

Southeast Asia is rich in jade.

When Gu Yanran heard what he said, she reluctantly accepted the status quo and settled down with peace of mind.

Chen Qingyu was very busy. After settling him in, he rushed to the factory to supervise the production work.

The person in charge of this factory is also a Chinese named Chen Zhuofan.

He handed Chen Qingyu the latest report from the factory and said, "This is the production volume of summer clothes we have completed so far."

Chen Qingyu took a look and said, "This is much less than in previous years."

Chen Zhuofan explained, "The production level in Southeast Asia is indeed worse than that in China. Even if the same equipment is used, the production speed of workers here is still incomparable with that in China."

Chen Qingyu frowned.

If production efficiency cannot be improved over time and shipment volume is insufficient, it will be almost impossible to maintain sales at the same level as in previous years.

Chen Zhuofan had a worried look on his face, "Working overtime is not enough. We have asked for a salary increase several times, but they have all been rejected. If we let them work overtime again, I am afraid they will go on strike."

Strike actions are actually not uncommon in Southeast Asia.

The losses from a strike are huge, and no one wants to see workers go on strike.

"Is there no other way?" Chen Qingyu asked.

Chen Zhuofan thought for a while, "If you want to increase profits, there is another way, and that is to reduce production costs."

Chen Qingyu rubbed his head irritably, "How else can we lower it?"

The hourly wages of workers here are already very low. No matter how low they are, it’s really hard to find people who can do the work.

Some fixed expenses, such as water, electricity, etc., are unavoidable.

Chen Zhuofan probably knew about these situations, but he didn't mention them. Instead, he talked about the backlog of second-hand clothes in the warehouse.

"A small part of the second-hand clothes in Southeast Asia can be resold. The remaining part was used for reproduction before. However, the cost of reproduction is high, so it has been piled in the warehouse without processing."

"If we can use these clothes and make them into fabrics that can be reused, then our costs can actually be reduced."

Chen Qingyu frowned, "Didn't you say that the cost of reproduction is high?"

Chen Zhuofan smiled and said, "We have to consider environmental pollution, so we use environmentally friendly methods. Of course environmental protection costs money. But if it is tightly used as fabric, it doesn't have to be that troublesome."

Chen Qingyu's eyebrows moved slightly.

Chen Zhuofan means to deal with it in a non-environmentally friendly way. But will there be any problems with the fabric produced in this way?

"There will be no problem. The clothes produced in this way have a shorter shelf life." Chen Zhuofan said, "Including problems such as not being washed frequently and fading after exposure to water."
