Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

The clothing brand market in Guangzhou is large, so the update and replacement is also fast. My brother-in-law's clothing factory has never launched new models, so it was naturally eliminated.

Thanks to the fact that basic clothes are always popular, my brother-in-law can still make ends meet by selling them. Otherwise, the clothing factory would have closed down long ago.

In the past, he was the eldest son-in-law, and his factory was the largest among the sons-in-law, so the eldest brother-in-law had a very high status in front of the Yang family.

Now, he is still the eldest son-in-law, but the factory he runs has been taken over by a newcomer, and he is in an awkward position.

At the beginning, the eldest brother-in-law never thought of asking Xu Wanning for help, or cooperating with her, but the factory is now on its last legs. If he doesn't think of some way to change it, it will probably end up closing down.

So, when my younger brother recommended Xu Wanning to him again and again, he was finally moved and decided to talk to her.

After listening to her brother-in-law's words, Xu Wanning asked, "How big is your clothing factory? What types of clothing do you produce?"

Before the eldest brother-in-law could speak, Boss Yang said, "Let me put it this way, Boss Xu, you have also seen my third brother-in-law's factory. The scale of my eldest brother-in-law's factory is three times larger than his! There are more than a dozen assembly lines."

As for Xu Wanning's second question, Boss Yang left it to his brother-in-law to answer himself.

"We mainly produce women's clothing, because women's clothing has the largest market and is the easiest to make money, so we have been producing women's clothing. As for the style, of course it depends on the market trend. Whatever is popular in the market, our factory will produce it."

Xu Wanning nodded: "I think I understand. If you want to revive the clothing factory, you need designers to design new styles, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" said my brother-in-law. "Now the clothing factory is very mature, and I also have ways to sell overseas. But the biggest problem at the moment is that we don't have new styles, and we have been living off our old capital, so our business is stagnant."

"Boss Xu, I heard from Lao Liu that you run a clothing store in Jing City, and the cheongsams and dresses in it are all designed by you. I wonder if you are willing to be a designer for our clothing factory?"

As soon as the words fell, the eldest brother-in-law immediately added: "Of course, I know that your main job is a student, and of course you still have to focus on your studies. You can't work in a garment factory, but it doesn't matter. You just need to provide me with a few design drawings every month, and the salary will be based on the highest industry standards. What do you think?"

I have to say that the conditions offered by my brother-in-law are very generous. After all, Xu Wanning only needs to use her spare time to draw some designs and she can get a salary of several hundred yuan every month.

If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely agree without hesitation.

But is Xu Wanning an ordinary person?

of course not!

She is now worth at least several hundred thousand dollars, so she doesn't need these few hundred dollars at all.

As for the design drawings, she had countless of them in her mind. She could just pick out a few of them. As long as her brother-in-law's clothing factory produced them according to her designs, it would definitely be revived.

But this is not what Xu Wanning wants.

After waiting for a long time without any response from her, the eldest brother-in-law became a little nervous. He asked anxiously, "Boss Xu, do you think the conditions I offer are not enough? If you think they are not enough, you can propose your own conditions and we can discuss them."

"Yes, your conditions are not enough to impress me."

My brother-in-law opened his mouth slightly, but didn't respond for a long time.

Obviously, Xu Wanning's words were beyond his understanding.

A salary of several hundred yuan a month, and she thinks it’s too little?

Xu Wanning looked at her brother-in-law's expression and knew what he was thinking.

Xu Wanning smiled and said, "You just said that I also opened a clothing store in Beijing. The purpose of our clothing store is tailor-made. Every piece of clothing is handmade, which is our gimmick. In addition to handmade tailor-made, the most important thing is that the styles I design are novel enough."

"Because the styles I design are quite different from those available on the market, so many people would rather spend a lot of money to have custom-made clothes in a clothing store. Do you know how much net profit my clothing store makes in a month?"

My eldest brother-in-law asked tentatively, "One thousand?"

Xu Wanning shook her head and held up four fingers: "Last month, the net profit of our clothing store was 4,000 yuan. This is the money that fell into my hands after deducting the salary and fabric costs."

"And that doesn't include some of the orders that haven't been customized yet. If that's included, the total would be at least over five thousand yuan."

This amount is almost insignificant in front of the garment factory.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even though my brother-in-law's clothing factory is not as profitable as before, it is after all a medium-to-large-scale clothing factory with more than a dozen production lines. Its monthly net profit is at least tens of thousands of yuan.

Xu Wanning mentioned her profits just to tell her brother-in-law that she would rather use her designs in a clothing store than the several hundred yuan salary he gave her every month.

After all, there is a difference between a few hundred dollars and a few thousand dollars. Unless you are stupid, you will choose the latter.

The eldest brother-in-law thought for a moment and asked, "Then what do you think I need to do to impress you to design for my clothing factory?"

Xu Wanning raised a finger, and Boss Yu was shocked.

She wouldn't want 10% of the garment factory's profits, would she?

Just as I thought of this, I heard Xu Wanning say, "Give me 10% of the gross profit of your garment factory, and I can give you the design."

"are you crazy!"

The eldest brother-in-law stood up and looked down at Xu Wanning. "I only need to spend a few hundred dollars to hire a designer, and you actually want to take the profit of my clothing factory? Or the gross profit?"

Crazy, must be crazy!

Even Sister Yang looked at Xu Wanning with unkindness.

Sister Yang is 39 years old this year, 12 years older than Boss Yang. It can be said that Boss Yang was raised by her.

For Sister Yang, Boss Yang is more like her eldest son than her younger brother. She protects her son much more than Sister Yang does.

Sister Yang didn't like Boss Yang and Xu Wanning getting too close in the first place, and now when she heard Xu Wanning shamelessly saying that she wanted 10% of the garment factory's gross profit, she was completely furious.

"Boss Xu, I admit that you are a capable person, but no matter how capable a person is, he or she must know his or her own limitations, don't you think?"

Xu Wanning shrugged: "Of course I have self-knowledge, so I won't bother Ms. Yang."

She could feel that Sister Yang was full of rejection towards her.
