Chapter 227
A few days passed in a flash, and after school at noon that day, Xiang Jin and Yan Chen went to the cafeteria to eat with their lunch boxes.

The two were walking on the road, but they were called by a somewhat familiar voice, "Xiang classmate, Yan classmate?"

The two turned their heads and followed the sound, and saw Manager Xiao from the garment factory smiling at them in a black Hongqi car.

"Hey, Manager Xiao, why are you here again, looking for our Director Yang?" The two walked over and greeted each other, but there was actually one person sitting in the back row of the car.

Manager Xiao looked at them and still smiled, "I'm here specifically to find you two."

"Looking for the two of us?" Xiang Jin and Yan Chen looked at each other, and she had an intuition that there was going to be another order today.

The other party nodded and confirmed, "Well, I'm looking for you, come, get in the car, let's find a place to chat."

"Where are you going? Did you sell us?" Xiang Jin joked.

Manager Xiao couldn't laugh or cry for a while, pointed at her and said to the people beside him, "Look, this little girl is quite vigilant, isn't she?"

The man also laughed, and Manager Xiao said, "Don't worry, I can't sell you. Besides, you two are so smart, how dare we sell it? When we sell it, we will get ourselves into trouble. It's not worth it, it's not worth it. He is a serious and legitimate businessman."

Xiang Jin said, "Just kidding, just kidding, don't take it seriously, the main reason is that we still have two exams in the afternoon, so we can't wait long.

If you have anything to do, why don't we go to the cafeteria and talk about it?

You haven't eaten yet, have you?Why don't we treat you to a big meal in the cafeteria today, the cooks in our cafeteria are pretty good at cooking. "

Manager Na Xiao shook his head and said, "It's true that we haven't eaten yet, and we've just arrived here not long ago. We planned to ask you to go out and find a restaurant together."

Xiang Jin waved his hand, "That's not necessary. Eating at school is the same. How about it? Do you want to eat in the cafeteria with us?"

Then Manager Xiao looked at the person next to him, "Would you like to try it, the food in their cafeteria is still quite good?"

The man looked at Xiang Jin and Yan Chen and followed his opinion, "Would it be inconvenient to talk about things in your cafeteria?"

Yan Chen said, "There are so many people eating at this moment, it may be inconvenient, but it will be fine after the meal is over."

The two nodded, and then they saw the man and said to Manager Xiao, "Since the two children have an exam in the afternoon, it won't be too long, so let's go to their cafeteria?"

Manager Xiao responded, "Okay!"

So several people got out of the car, including the driver. There were three people in their party.

On the way, Manager Xiao introduced them both, "This is Manager Huang Youde, the general manager of our factory. Manager Huang's hometown is from City J, City Z, and his parents and grandparents all opened clothing stores.

, their family moved to our county during his grandfather’s generation because they escaped the war. His grandfather’s generation specially made suits and cheongsams for people, and his father’s generation specially made suits and Chinese tunic suits for people. Yes, and then our manager Huang’s generation opened up a clothing factory to make school uniforms for students. "

Xiang Jin nodded, "It's amazing!"

Then Manager Huang waved his hand modestly, "Oh, this is nothing, it's far, far away."

Xiang Jin said, "The establishment of such a large garment factory has taken over the entire county's primary and secondary schools. The school uniforms of the primary and secondary school students in the small town are not good?"

Then Manager Huang sighed, "Oh, thank you for the national policy! If it weren't for the national policy, I wouldn't be able to do what I am doing now. In the past, when I first came into contact with this field, it was very difficult. I stepped on it every day. A broken bicycle goes out to pull orders, and returns without success every day. You said that at that time, every family was poor and couldn't afford food, so how could there be any spare money to buy school uniforms for students?"

Xiang Jin asked, "Then how did you persevere? Or you know that this industry is not easy to get involved in, so why did you get involved in the first place?"

Manager Huang felt that the girl was indeed very smart, and the questions she asked were directly to the point, so he said, "To be honest, I entered this industry at the beginning because of a moment of enthusiasm and was forced by life.

In our generation, suits and Chinese tunic suits are not very popular anymore. In addition, there are several clothing factories in the county, and they are relatively large-scale, and they have already gained word of mouth. What does my family have?Just a small tailor shop.

So, if I try to do the same thing as others, I can’t find a way out. Later, when I passed by County No. [-] Middle School, I saw children from two classes playing basketball on the playground outside, but the children from the two classes Because the clothes are not uniform, I can't tell which team belongs to which team, and then I always pass the ball wrong.

It suddenly occurred to me that the athletes of our country also uniformed their uniforms when they went abroad to participate in the Olympic Games, so I was suddenly overwhelmed and decided to go in this direction.

Later, the first order I got was basketball vests for dozens of classes in County No. [-] Middle School, but it was only for a dozen boys in each class, and the other children were still wearing various clothes.

Later, the first school uniform list I received for all students in all classes of the whole grade was from the county one. At that time, their school was going to hold a school-wide student sports meeting, and uniform uniforms were required. I knew it, so I ran every day. The office of the head of the school. Later, they were annoyed by me, so they gave me the list to make.

At that time, when I received the order, I was so happy that I couldn't sleep for several days and nights. I just stared at the masters below who worked overtime to make the clothes and then sent them over. I was relieved. tone,

Then I fell asleep and slept for two days and two nights, but gradually some schools asked me to customize school uniforms, and then it was easier for me to go out and run orders. "

Xiang Jin nodded, "Although you made that decision impulsively, you chose the right path.

Although everything is indeed difficult at the beginning, but as long as you persevere, it will be fine. "

Manager Huang also nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes! Now that I think about that period of time, I thank myself for persevering."

When the cafeteria arrived, the few people stopped talking, and then Xiang Jin and the others led them to line up for dinner. When it was their turn, Yan Chen said to the couple who were cooking, "Let's join together!" Serve three of them, a total of five people's meals, and give each of them a dinner plate and a soup bowl."

The couple who were eating rice immediately smiled and narrowed their eyes, and kept saying yes, yes!
Manager Huang and Manager Xiao looked at the small book that Yan Chen took out and handed it to the proprietress. She took a small stamp and wanted to stamp it directly, saying that they would pay, and then both of them paid for it. , Yan Chen refused, "No, it's convenient for us."

Xiang Jin also said, "Yeah, let's hurry up, there are still people queuing up behind us waiting for dinner, proprietress, hurry up and cook for us!"

"Oh, good!" The proprietress quickly poked five of them on it, then picked it up and handed it to Yan Chen, and then cooked for a few people.

After Xiang Jin and Yan Chen finished the meal, they said to a few people, "Let's find a place first, and you guys take your time later?"

"Okay!" Manager Huang and Manager Xiao responded, and then Xiang Jin and Yan Chen left first with their meals in hand. Finally, they found a place in an inconspicuous corner, which could accommodate five or six people. .

Xiang Jin waved at them, "Here!"

A few people walked towards them with their dinner plates, and then Manager Xiao whispered to Manager Huang, "The two kids don't like to talk when they are eating."

Manager Huang was taken aback for a moment, "You even know this?"

Manager Xiao nodded and said, "I ate here with Director Yang last time, and then I observed them carefully, and I found that they didn't say a word during the whole meal. It’s really hard to eat!”

Manager Huang nodded, "Okay, I see."

A few people walked over, and they saw Yan Chen saying to them, "What's the matter, let's talk after dinner!"

"Well, good!" Manager Huang nodded, and then sat down with a few people, and then began to eat their own food.

Then Manager Huang found that the two children ate very well, not only did they not make any noise, but their movements were also unhurried and very elegant. They are born soaked, they are not at all like children raised in rural families, but rather like children from powerful families in the city, who have been taught strict family rules since childhood.

Now he finally understands why those two children dared to charge 3 yuan for the transfer of copyright. It wasn't because they opened their mouths to slaughter them like fat sheep, but because they had the confidence and they had seen the world .

Oops, it really is a dreadful young man!
After they finished their meal, Xiang Jin gave each of them a tissue to wipe their mouths, and then said, "You guys sit down for a while, let's wash a lunch box?"

Manager Huang and Manager Xiao nodded, and then Xiang Jin and Yan Chen got up to wash the dishes, and the driver also consciously walked towards the sink with their dinner plates, but he stopped halfway. The proprietress who was doing the cooking stopped me and picked it up, "Let's come, let's come."

The driver had no choice but to go back and sit again. He didn't know what Manager Huang had ordered him, so he got up and left quickly.

After Xiang Jin and Yan Chen washed the bowls, chopsticks and lunch boxes and went back to sit down, Yan Chen looked at the two of them and said bluntly, "You two, please tell me, what is the matter with us?"

Manager Xiao took the lead and said, "Is that so? After seeing your draft of winter school uniforms, our Manager Huang is very satisfied with your work. He proposed to our classmates last time to design summer school uniforms for us. I Later, we told our Manager Huang, and he thought it was feasible.”

Xiang Jin and Yan Chen nodded, and there was no look of surprise or surprise on their faces. They were very calm, and Yan Chen said, "Manager Huang is probably not just for the summer school uniform today, right? Otherwise, you are completely You can just send Manager Xiao to talk to us."

"Yeah, there's no need for the two bosses to go there in person," Xiang Jin also nodded.

Manager Huang and Manager Xiao secretly praised and admired their calm, calm, neither arrogant nor impetuous performance. At the same time, they were secretly surprised by their intelligence. The two children are really smart, don't they?"

Xiang Jin waved his hand, "It's nothing, anyone can guess."

Then Manager Huang nodded, and then said, "That's right, I heard from Manager Xiao that you can also design clothes for adults and children?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"

Then Manager Huang said, "I want to open another factory in my hometown Z City, which is dedicated to making adult clothes. Can the two students design some more clothes for us?"

Xiang Jin said, "You are preparing at this time, it should be spring and summer clothes, right?"

Manager Huang nodded approvingly at her, "That's right, it's spring and summer clothes, but don't worry, I won't treat you badly as far as manuscript fees are concerned."

Yan Chen said, "[-], [-] pieces, don't be surprised, and don't think that we are lions. Listen to me. Adult clothes are different from student uniforms. Student uniforms are simple in style and bright in color." Also simple.

But for adult clothes, it is more about a glamorous, fashionable and charming, so we need to conceive and match colors with multiple elements, which takes a lot of time and energy.

You also know that we are now in the third stage of junior high school, and we will take the senior high school entrance examination in the next year. If the salary is not suitable, we would rather not accept it. After all, we are students, and we still mainly focus on studies. "

Xiang Jin also nodded, "Yes, although we can indeed earn a little money with this now, to be honest, compared with our future life, we really don't take it seriously. Let's study hard, and when we grow up in the future, we don't have to worry about making money back, don't you think so?"

The two were stunned for a moment, then nodded, and Xiang Jin said, "Actually, we didn't charge you a high price when we reported you, and we didn't hide it from you. As for the school uniform we sold you before, we wore it on the street not long ago. I went back to the provincial capital, and then the leader of a middle school over there saw it and asked us where it was made? We said it was designed by ourselves, and then the leader of the school asked us to design a summer uniform for them , and then we designed it, and they gave us a design fee of 4 yuan."

"Forty thousand? That much? A school gives you that much?" Managers Xiao and Huang were stunned.

Xiang Jin nodded and said, "Ah, there are several fraternity schools, and there are several elementary schools below the middle school, so there are tens of thousands of people in total."

The two nodded, "Oh, that's right, that is, that is!"

Xiang Jin also nodded.

Then Manager Huang made a decision, "Okay, then follow what Yan said, adult clothes, two spring clothes and two summer clothes, each with a copyright fee of 5 yuan, and summer school uniforms. There are boys and girls. For girls, we pay 10 yuan for the copyright fee, and when I go back in the afternoon, I will ask the finance to arrange a deposit of [-] yuan for you, or the two accounts before, right?"

Xiang Jin and Yan Chen nodded, and then Yan Chen said, "Please give us a piece of paper and a pen, and tell us your requirements, then we will produce a design draft according to your requirements, by the way, it is women's clothing Is it in men's clothing?"

Manager Huang frowned all of a sudden, "A request? I don't know what the request is, anyway, it is to be fashionable and good-looking. Let me tell you that our coastal cities are now vigorously developing their economies. Over there, all over the country, There are even people coming and going from all over the world, so people there have a more layered sense of aesthetic pursuit than those in the mainland, oh, women’s clothing, women’s clothing! Women’s clothing is more marketable.”

Yan Chen and Xiang Jin nodded, and then Yan Chen got up and said, "Okay, we know, this weekend, we'll deliver the manuscript at the old place, and then pay the final payment."

"This weekend, you can hand in all five manuscripts. Is the time too short? Do you want to give you a little more time? For example, next weekend, or the next weekend?" Manager Huang and Manager Xiao was a little speechless immediately, but Manager Huang was a little worried.

Manager Xiao also kept saying, "Yes, yes? How about making it longer?" You must know that the designers in their factory have bitten the barrel of their pens every day, and they can't produce a design in a month. Draft, these two teenagers will have to produce five design drafts in a few days, will they be too impulsive, and don't be unable to guarantee the quality by then?

Yan Chen said, "No, just this weekend!"

Manager Huang stared at him for a long time, seeing that his face was still calm and composed, he finally nodded in compromise, "Okay, then this weekend."

After the matter was settled, several people left separately.

On the way back to the dormitory, Xiang Jin whispered to Yan Chen, "I think I can buy some more land then."

Yan Chen just laughed, "Naturally!"

"Today is Tuesday, and there are still four days before the weekend. We have to publish at least one more manuscript every day?" Xiang Jin counted with his fingers.

Yan Chen nodded, "Are you in a hurry?"

Xiang Jin shook his head, "There's nothing to worry about, let me tell you, the style of the school uniform was conceived when I suggested it to Manager Xiao last time, and I'll draw it when I go back later." Give you."

"Yes!" Looking at her confident expression, Yan Chen's eyes were also full of smiles.

The two returned to the dormitory, and after putting down the bowls, chopsticks and lunch boxes, Xiang Jin hurried back to the room to get paper and pens and said, "Let me tell you, school uniforms like Xia Tian's head are mainly about wearing cool, so let's wear clothes with upper body White shirts are uniform, and summer clothes are different for men and women. For boys, we can match them with a pair of light-colored casual straight-leg pants, like this, and for girls, we can match them with an A-line skirt like this, but We can use this grid fabric for this skirt."

After Yan Chen saw her picture, he came, "What Xia Tian wants is to be cool, isn't your boy's trousers a little too long, why don't you change them into shorts?

And for safety reasons, isn't this girl's skirt too short?If a girl must wear a skirt, I suggest that the skirt can be made longer.

In addition, if you don't change the length, I think if it matches with boys' shorts, I suggest that girls should wear skirt pants directly. The outside is in the form of a skirt, but the inside is in the form of shorts? "

After Xiang Jin listened to his words, he immediately looked at him with bright eyes, "I think what you said makes sense, boys wear shorts, and girls wear skirt pants, which is not visually appealing." It will look a bit messy and awkward, otherwise, our summer clothes will give them two drawings, one is long trousers with a long skirt that reaches the calf, and the other is shorts with short skirts. The layer of fabric inside the culottes is lined with thin white Dacron, which can not only reduce the production cost of the material, but also prevent the embarrassment that the fabric is too thin and easy to run out. The third one is this fabric Soft and light."

Yan Chen nodded, "Yes, and for the color of the school uniform logo, I suggest using a combination of green and black, so that the color will not appear too bright and give people a visually refreshing feeling."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay, you are sure about this, you have more say in color matching than me."

Yan Chen just laughed, "Alright then, let's decide on the style of this school uniform?"

"Ok!"

Yan Chen took Xiang Jin's paper and pen and quickly outlined the style of the school uniform with a few strokes, and then added some textual instructions where necessary, "Make a draft first, wait I'll redraw it later."

"Ok!"

Following Yan Chen, he discussed spring clothes with her again, "Clothes for spring should not be too thin or too thick. I think single shirts are better. We can design a style of windbreaker, which is more popular. Clothes can be worn by smiling students, teachers, or staff members, when the weather is slightly hotter, and when the weather is slightly colder.”

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"

Then Yan Chen picked up the pen and quickly sketched another picture on the book, Xiang Jin looked at it and said, "Can this collar be changed into a round collar with a little curvature? Look, your side A collar would look good on a tall person, but it won't look good on a short person like you."

Then Yan Chen handed her the pen and asked her to draw the style in her mind.

Then Xiang Jin drew it directly, "Hey, that's it, do you feel that there is a little sense of playfulness, and it's not as cold as before?"

Yan Chen nodded after seeing it, and Xiang Jin then made some changes on the picture, "Let's relax a little more here and here, after all, not all people are slender, and we still have to take care of them properly. Feel the fat man's feelings."

Yan Chen just laughed.

Xiang Jin followed and continued, "Let's not shape the lapel on the chest, just open both sides like this, and nail the big round buttons of the same color as the clothes on both sides, and then both sides can be pulled over like this Buttons, of course, I prefer the light gray color of this dress, I think this color is atmospheric, simple and generous.”

Yan Chen laughed again, then nodded, "I can probably imagine the shape of your dress," and then he took the pen from her again, and drew another picture of that dress next to the original picture. The back view, "This dress does not use a lace structure, it can be directly designed with a bow at the back, and the pockets of this dress can also be designed invisibly, now, at this position on both sides, so that the design of the whole dress is very simple. Generous and stylish at the same time.”

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, no matter what kind of trousers and shoes you wear with it, it will look good."

"Well," Yan Chen turned the page, and then quickly outlined the artwork they had discussed, and made some annotations and text descriptions on some important parts.

In one breath, they confirmed the two drawings at once. Xiang Jin still had a lot of drawings in his mind, and she wanted to discuss the next one with him, so Yan Chen raised his wrist and looked at the time, "Okay , class is about to start, do you have any ideas, let's discuss it in the afternoon or evening?"

Xiang Jin nodded, then stood up, "Then, I'll leave this manuscript with you."

"Yes!" Yan Chen took the pen and notebook back and put them in his room, and followed them back to the classroom.

On the way, Xiang Jin said to Yan Chen, "I think it's summer, and ladies should wear skirts, so let's start from this perspective."

Yan Chen nodded, "Yes", and then Xiang Jin said, "I've already conceived a picture, and I'll draw it later for you to see in the afternoon."

"Okay!" Yan Chen laughed again, and at the same time he also conceived a style of spring clothes.
