Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Chapter 23 Happiness upon happiness

Gu Youlian was going to go directly to their door and start a fight.

Lin Qingping stopped him.

"It's alright, don't rush, let's focus on our business first." Just like last time, Lin Qingping and the others modeled the new clothes themselves.

Gu Youlian and Du Gen's daughter, Xiaomai, also wore new clothes. Lin Qingping even combed Xiaomai's hair beautifully. Standing next to Zhiyuan, Xiaomai was even more eye-catching than a New Year's picture doll, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the square.

Gu Youlian herself couldn't stop praising it, "Wow, this looks so good! Pingzi, how are you so skillful? You styled this hair!"

“Our wheat is naturally beautiful!” Lin Qingping looked at wheat with great affection. In her past life, she loved girls and loved buying them pretty dresses and dressing them up like princesses. How wonderful that would be!

Unfortunately, she and Gu Juncheng had no children in her previous life...

Lin Qingping quickly put aside those melancholy feelings, because she couldn't care less about them anymore!

More and more people gathered around the stall, and their business was even more booming than last time.

Customers who were originally queuing in the mall all rushed to Lin Qingping's side, calling their friends and family.

"Quick! Come over here! This is the original!"

"Yes, yes, yes! I made an appointment with them last week! The boss said he would come on Sunday, but you wouldn't believe me!"

"Wow! These clothes are even prettier than the last ones! Especially on my daughter! I want to buy one for her!"

"What about the quality? What about the quality?"

"I checked the quality, it's just as good as the ones in the mall! Hey, this one's mine! I'm taking it, don't take it!"

"Can't I just take a look?"

Amidst the commotion, the batch of clothes Lin Qingping brought sold out before the afternoon.

They were completely unaffected by the counterfeit versions of their designs in shopping malls.

Gu Youlian felt a great sense of relief and looked at Lin Qingping with admiration. "Pingping, you are amazing! You are a hundred times better than the people in the mall! It's just that you were born in the countryside, otherwise, none of these mall owners can compare to you!"

Lin Qingping wasn't modest at all. Recalling her glorious career in her previous life, she curved her lips into a smile, "Even if we were born in the countryside, we wouldn't be any worse than them!"

The same thing happened again: just as they were packing up to go home, people arrived.

The woman who arrived was short-haired and permed, looking both elegant and fashionable.

The woman who came this time was different. She introduced herself first, "Hello, I am the manager of Meisheng Department Store. I am very interested in your clothes. I wonder if you have time to sit down and have a detailed discussion?"

Gu Youlian immediately remembered, "It was that Meisheng restaurant! The waiter rolled his eyes at us a hundred times!"

The woman was slightly embarrassed, but immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, our staff's service was not good. I will go back and criticize them and improve in the future. But I came here today to express my appreciation for your clothing. I wonder if it's convenient for you?"

This atmosphere was very familiar to Lin Qingping. In her previous life, she had been doing business for decades, and the key was "talking." Whether or not an agreement could be reached was another matter.

She immediately agreed.

The woman's surname was Xiang, and her name was Xiang Hongying. She invited them to dinner.

Lin Qingping went to the restaurant in the provincial capital with ease and composure, showing none of the restraint or stage fright typical of country folk, which made Xiang Hongying think much more highly of her.

Xiang Hongying thought this woman from the countryside was quite good at dressing up, but she had no idea how many occasions Lin Qingping had attended in her previous life. What was a provincial capital hotel compared to this? Lin Qingping's own shop was much more luxurious than this.

At the dinner table, everyone fell silent, except for Lin Qingping and Xiang Hongying who were talking.

It turned out that Xiang Hongying wanted to find out where they got their goods.

Lin Qingping smiled, "I designed it myself."

Xiang Hongying was shocked.

Lin Qingping didn't hide anything from her and directly said that she had altered the design of the ready-made clothes.

The reason she didn't hide it was because she believed Xiang Hongying was an expert in this area and would be able to tell at a glance, so there was no point in hiding it.

After being shocked, Xiang Hongying praised her highly, then chatted with Gu Youlian and Du Gen for a while, and even played with the children.

Lin Qingping wasn't in a hurry; she knew that Xiang Hongying was using this time to consider things.

Sure enough, after saying all that, Xiang Hongying asked, "If I asked you to deliver 300 pieces of clothing to me within ten days, and they couldn't be the styles you've sold in the last two sales, could you do that?"

"I want to hear the terms," ​​Lin Qingping said calmly.

“Each piece of clothing is three yuan cheaper than your retail price. The advantage for you is that I can pick up the goods myself, so you don’t have to make a long trip.”

Lin Qingping pondered for a while.

It's probably a psychological tactic.

In the end, Lin Qingping agreed, "I can't guarantee that the number will be 300; it will be between 250 and 320 pieces."

"Sure!" Xiang Hongying readily agreed. "Then where should I pick up the goods ten days from now?"

Lin Qingping gave the address of the county town, "It's near the train station."

"no problem!"

The cooperation was thus concluded. After finishing their meal in peace, Xiang Hongying led Lin Qingping to Meisheng to formally sign the contract. Xiang Hongying affixed the company seal, and Lin Qingping pressed her fingerprint on the document.

After leaving Meisheng, Gu Youlian let out a long sigh of relief. "My goodness, that scared me to death! I've never seen anything like this before, never eaten a meal like this, never witnessed such a scene. And signing a contract? Pingzi, do you even understand contracts? I didn't dare say a word. You wouldn't... rip us off, would you?"

"Don't worry, I've checked it, there's no problem." Lin Qingping had signed countless contracts in her past life, so she was very confident.

For Gu Youlian, right now, everything Lin Qingping says is right! As long as Pingzi says there's no problem, then there's no problem!

Immediately, she became overjoyed. "Oh my god, I've actually eaten in the provincial capital! We Xiaomai even ate that milk cake!"

“It’s a cream cake!” Dugan corrected her with a laugh. “Look at you, so easily impressed!”

"Don't talk about me, all of us, except for the bottle, how many of us weren't scared?" Gu Youlian retorted, but was still happy, putting her arm around Xiaomai and asking, "Daughter, is the cream cake delicious?"

"Mmm, it's delicious," Xiaomai said softly.

Yes, today at dinner, both children ate cream cakes. This was the first time anyone had ever seen one, and it was quite a novelty. However, Zhiyuan, on the other hand, seemed completely unfazed and remained very calm.

Lin Qingping held Zhiyuan's hand. This child has quite a background.

The second sister remained silent, only smiling with her lips pursed, clinging to her older sister. Everyone praised her sister, making her incredibly proud.

They then returned to Gujia Village.

When the Gu family elders saw them return with empty snakeskin bags, they were overjoyed. Then, to make matters worse, they gave Lin Qingping a telegram, saying, "Chengzi sent a telegram. Take a look."
