At this moment, a burst of noise suddenly reached their ears.

Looking up, I saw fabrics piled as high as a hill in a fabric store.

Unexpectedly, the "hill" suddenly collapsed, and all kinds of fabrics were scattered on the ground.

The proprietress is an old lady with slightly gray hair, and she is busy arranging the fabrics at the moment.

Seeing her anxious look, Bai Sitian and Huang Wei both thought of their mothers and decided to help.

Huang Wei began to help carry the cloth, and Bai Sitian carefully sorted and folded the cloth.

While busy, Huang Wei never forgets to use her specialty - chatting.

While she was moving the fabrics, she chatted with the landlady about household matters.

They talked about the weather, market conditions, and the special fabric issues they were most concerned about.

The proprietress sighed and said: "This kind of special fabric is not available in ordinary merchants. It is controlled by some special merchants."

Hearing this, Bai Sitian and Huang Wei were shocked, as if they saw the dawn of hope.

Huang Wei took the opportunity to ask: "Then do you know how to contact these people?"

The landlady thought for a while, "I only know a person named Brother Qiang, and his office is over there. On the second floor of the management building next to the wholesale market." She pointed to a building.

After receiving this important information, Bai Sitian and Huang Wei gratefully thanked the proprietress and prepared to talk to Brother Qiang.

But the landlady stopped them: "Hey, little comrade, don't worry yet."

The two stopped and looked at the landlady suspiciously.

She came closer, lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "I advise you, it is better not to go to Brother Qiang. Even if you go, it will be of no use, it will be a waste of effort."

Huang Wei asked with some confusion: "Why? Boss lady, we sincerely want to buy this kind of fabric."

The landlady sighed and explained: "Brother Qiang, he has this special fabric in his hands, but he doesn't sell it to just anyone. He can tell at a glance whether you are a small customer and whether you have enough funds to purchase this fabric.”

Hearing this, Bai Sitian asked with some confusion: "But, are we willing to pay a high price to buy it?"

The landlady shook her head and said: "Oh, you young people really don't understand things in the business world. Brother Qiang is not just for money. He just wants to sell cloth to some specific customers, who may be their long-term customers." Partners, or new customers that he thinks have potential. He will not easily sell fabrics to a small, unfamiliar customer."

Huang Wei asked: "Why? Don't you want to make money if you have money?"

"By deciding who can buy these fabrics, Brother Qiang can finally set the market price and profit."

Bai Sitian can completely understand what the boss lady said,

In the 30s, the market was not as open and transparent as it would be years later, and purchasing some special items often required certain relationships and channels.

Bai Sitian and Huang Wei couldn't help but feel disappointed when they heard this.

Huang Wei wanted to fight with Brother Qiang, but Bai Sitian stopped her and pulled her out of the market.

Huang Wei asked doubtfully: "Sitian, what are you doing? Are you just giving up?"

Bai Sitian smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's go to Brother Fu's house next door to get something."

"Why are you going to Brother Fu's house?" Huang Wei was a little confused and muttered: "The business hasn't been finished yet."

Bai Sitian explained: "We can't go to see Brother Qiang like this, we have to tidy up a little bit."

The fabric wholesale market is also very close to Zhengda Shopping Mall. This area is already home to wholesale markets for various commodities, and Fu Ge's house is not far away.

When she met a canteen on the road, Bai Sitian bought a bag of candy.

Huang Wei became even more confused, but Bai Sitian just smiled mysteriously and said nothing.

Soon, they arrived at Brother Fu's house.

Due to the renovation of the shopping mall, Brother Fu was setting up a stall selling clothes outside during this period, and his income was pretty good.

At this time, Brother Fu is out of the stall, and Sister Fu is the only one at home with her baby.

Mrs. Fu saw Bai Sitian coming and received them very warmly.

Bai Sitian took out the candy she just bought for her baby to eat, and then explained the purpose of her visit to Sister-in-law Fu: "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you to do something."

Mrs. Fu accepted the gift from Bai Sitian. He agreed readily: "Little sister Bai, what's going on? Can I help?"

Bai Sitian smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, take out all the top-grade clothes you have here. Can you lend them to me for a few hours? Or I can buy them. I want the ones that look mature and rich." "

The clothing seller had the most clothes, so Mrs. Fu went into the warehouse to sort out the most expensive clothing they had - a white cashmere coat.

After Bai Sitian put it on, she looked very young, fashionable and beautiful.

Bai Sitian was not satisfied. The dress was beautiful, but it was not particularly high-end.

So she shook her head and asked with some disappointment: "Sister-in-law, these clothes are not suitable. Are there any that look very noble at first glance, like the clothes worn by an official's wife?"

Mrs. Fu suddenly remembered that Brother Fu had been entrusted by a leader to collect a mink fur coat for his wife from another place.

The mink coat was black, shiny and very luxurious.

Mrs. Fu went into the house and took out the coat with a hood, and then took out a close-fitting dress.

After Bai Sitian put on this set of equipment, her whole temperament immediately improved a lot.

Mrs. Fu and Huang Wei were amazed when they saw her style.

But something seems to be missing.

Mrs. Fu went into the room and took out a leather bag for Bai Sixian to carry.

In this way, she becomes more elegant and looks very aura.

Bai Sitian took a deep breath and pulled Huang Wei out of the door again.

Although there was a wholesale fabric market across the road, she was not in a hurry and waited for a taxi on the side of the road.

After the two of them got into the car, Bai Sitian pointed to the wholesale fabric market opposite and told the driver to go there.

The driver looked at them with some confusion, "Do you need to take a car for such a short distance?"

But Bai Sitian took out a 5-yuan note and said to the driver: "Master, please take us to the place soon. Don't leave yet. Just wait for us downstairs. We will come down in half an hour at most. Then I will I’ll give you another 5 yuan.”

When the driver heard this, he felt happy and immediately agreed.

Huang Wei looked at Bai Sitian with some confusion, wondering what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd.

Bai Sitian whispered to her: "You will call me Mr. Bai or Mrs. Bai later, do you understand?"

"What?"

"There's no time to explain. Just remember."

The taxi stopped at the management building next to the cloth wholesale market.

Bai Sitian and Huang Wei adjusted each other's clothes. Bai Sitian once again asked Huang Wei not to call her by the wrong name, and then walked inside.

Don't tell me, Bai Sitian is really a good actor.

She held her head high, took her time and looked a little lazy when she walked.

Coupled with this outfit, she looks like a lady.

The two went up to the second floor and found the office.

Outside the office, there were two or three people answering the phone and working, making it a busy scene.

Everyone present was shocked when they saw Bai Sitian walking in with great style.

Everyone guessed that this might be a certain official wife or a rich wife.

They couldn't help but become a little nervous and quickly sat upright.

Bai Sitian's eyes glanced around the room. Then he asked calmly: "Is Brother Qiang here?"
