The first thing they did when they returned to the store was to have a big drink of water and, seeing no customers were buying clothes, Qing Xue called the three of them to a meeting.

Qin Xue happily told her sisters the good news and casually asked if any of them wanted to become salespeople, explaining that their monthly salary would not be low if they secured orders:

“Ladies, I have good news for you. I’ve successfully negotiated with Aiguo Clothing Factory.

From now on, we don’t need to make clothes ourselves. Once Chenxi Clothing Factory starts operating, you won’t be able to compete with them, so there’s no need to guard these two sewing machines.

Just sell clothes directly from Aiguo Clothing Factory whenever they’re ready.

...
Of course, from today, Aiguo Clothing Factory is now our Chenxi Clothing Factory.

I just think that having four people here is too many, so I want to redistribute our staff.

Whoever wants to be a salesperson, let me know. I’ll be going to Chenxi Clothing Factory to train people in a few days, so whoever wants to go can come with me.

Being a salesperson can be tough, but there are commissions. As long as you secure orders, the commission won’t be low. This is the advantage, while the disadvantage is that you need to go out and visit clients for sales.

You may have to go on business trips for a few days and neglect your family. Considering this, I suggest Fang Xiu not become a salesperson for the clothing factory, as Taotao is still young and you can’t let go of your responsibilities.

I lean more towards Fang Hong and Yu Xiu. I prefer Fang Hong as she’s capable and doesn’t need to worry about her family, while Yu Xiu has little Jiajia and I’m not at ease with her focusing on work.

Of course, this is just my personal opinion. Whether you go or not is up to you. Your previously agreed salary and benefits will not change, so don’t worry about that.

But when I go there to train staff, it will definitely be an opportunity—a chance to change your lives.

You have to make decisions based on your own circumstances.

I know you are older than me and your husbands have higher official positions than mine.

I didn’t ask you to work with me because I looked down on you or to make you follow my orders.

On the contrary, ever since I woke up with amnesia after being injured, it’s been you who have taken care of and helped me, so I want to pull you up when I start my business.

All three of you are literate and have good personalities; you can handle these tasks.

This situation is only temporary. My goal is to give you the opportunity to study further in schools someday.

If you love making clothes, then study fashion design; if you love sales, then study sales. Learning in a formal system will undoubtedly be better than what I can teach you.

Of course, the decision is in your hands. Think about it and let me know in three days what you want to do.

Oh, and I’m going back to the military district tonight. Are you two going back with me?

If you are, we can go back together. Also, I have something to do tomorrow and won’t be coming to the store, so I’ll leave the store matters to you sisters.” Qin Xue finished speaking and looked at the three baffled women across from her.

Jiajia and her brother were playing with Xiaojing on the little bed. Qin Xue glanced at them and then turned her attention back to the three sisters who hadn’t yet come to their senses.

Qin Xue waved her hand to break their deep thoughts.

“Qin Xue, are you serious? Do we really have to do this? We’re doing just fine here, aren’t we?” The one who raised the question was Fang Hong. Being older, she thought about more things and had more concerns.

“Sister, do you remember what you said when I first told you about selling clothes?

You said it was a speculative business, but we were lucky to partner with Fang Xiu.

But it’s impossible for us to grow bigger without national reforms.

With the partnership with Aiguo Clothing Factory, everything will be different.

We don’t have to worry or fear anymore, as all matters will be handled by Mr. Guo, and we don’t need to get involved.

Mr. Guo has experienced the transformation from a state-owned factory to his own factory.

We just need to wait for the country’s major reforms. Why should we be afraid when our clothing store is linked with Chenxi Clothing Factory, right?”

“Well, you make a good point. We’ll think about it and give you an answer in three days. Let’s get back to work then.” The three agreed and started getting back to work, while Qin Xue drew designs with pen and paper..
