Chapter 17 Go to the black market

Quickly moving the stool back to its original place, Chen Qing opened the pen cap and wrote on the paper as if nothing had happened, without even raising his head.

Director Liu came to her desk with his hands behind his back and asked, "How are the preparations going?"

"Everything you arranged is ready."

Although the steps are a bit cumbersome, it is not a big deal. With the previous example, Chen Qing only needs to follow the steps.

Director Liu: "Are you sure?"

Chen Qing: "Sure."

Director Liu did not trust her ability to do the job and sent someone to investigate.

Chen Qing: "..."

I don't know why he asked this question.

Director Liu stayed where he was and criticized her and Tian Mengya again: "Girls shouldn't focus on appearance. How can beauty be enough to make a living? You should have a broad perspective and be ambitious in your work and life! Women hold up half the sky, don't you know? Go see Director Lin, the Women's Director. She's the famous Iron Lady, a national model worker. She's so respectable. Anyone who sees her should stop and say hello! She's so impressive."

Other directors would like their subordinates to be competitive and stay in their original positions quietly, but Director Liu would like his subordinates to be ambitious.

Otherwise it’s really hard to manage.

Because unless they break the law, the factory has no way of firing these people who are just waiting to die!
He has a large number of people under him who have no desire to make progress. As the director, he feels like a big victim, suffering a lot of humiliation every day.

Chen Qing and Tian Mengya listened with one ear and let it out with the other.

The team leader earns ten yuan more, but he does more than three times the work of the team members.

Whenever there is a scolding in the factory, the team leader will go to other leaders to be scolded. It is too tiring to go to work all day carrying a big blame.

They're not stupid.

After Director Liu finished speaking, he went to inspect other offices and encouraged everyone every day. It was amazing that it always had the opposite effect.

Chen Qing looked over and saw that Lao Liu was cursing in the next room. He immediately asked Tian Mengya, "Are you interested? You can tell me what style you like and I can make it for you."

A custom-made model worth ten dollars would cost about a quarter of Tian Mengya's salary, and Tian Mengya was a little hesitant.

Chen Qing pursed his lips and said cruelly, "How about this, tell me what type you like first, and I'll draw one for you."

For ten dollars, she can work first!

Debtors are so shameless.

As a salesperson, Chen Qing is very experienced in dealing with young girls like Tian Mengya.

First, make it seem like you are at a disadvantage, and the other party will soften their heart. Once she softens their heart, it will be easy to get the order. If the product is well made, the other party will become a long-term customer.

As expected, as soon as she said to draw a draft first, Tian Mengya's face became more hesitant.

Chen Qing encouraged him with his eyes: "It's okay, tell me what type you like, and I'll draw it for you first."

Tian Mengya placed her hands on her thighs, nervously grasping the fabric of her pants, and said, "I like beautiful skirts. Not too exaggerated, but still able to stand out in the crowd. Just a little bit special is fine."

"it is good."

It is impossible for people to wear short skirts nowadays. The length of the skirt is at most a little below the knee.

Then the style must be a long skirt.

Now it is 1970. Based on people's acceptance, making a set of Hong Kong-style clothes would be the most popular.

For the top, Chen Qing drew a polka dot short-sleeved shirt. The polka dots she designed were red, and there was a bow. The bottom was a red high-waisted long skirt.

She is tall and thin, but the 50:50 clothing design does not highlight her advantages at all. Chen Qing wants the clothes to show off her body advantages.

After Chen Qing finished drawing with a pencil, he handed her the draft paper and said, "Here, can you see if there's anything I can revise?"

Those who were sitting at the workstation next to Chen Qing could see Chen Qing's movements clearly. The pencil in her hand seemed to have magical powers, able to follow her movements and draw beautiful lines. With just a few strokes, the line drawing was clearly presented on the paper.

Such a beautiful line drawing that Tian Mengya felt like it was a painting.

The woman in the picture is elegant and beautiful.

Just looking at the drawings is enough to make you fall in love with it.

Chen Qing pushed the draft drawing to her and explained the color: "Do you think it's okay? If you don't like it, I can revise it." Chen Qing, who has revised the draft at least ten times, has become accustomed to the client's difficulties and is also prepared for Tian Mengya's pickyness.

Tian Mengya came back to her senses: "Did you design this for me?"

"Yes, I won't make a second custom-made pair unless they specifically make a copy."

This is a necessary rule for custom-made items. Otherwise, it would be very uncomfortable for people to spend so much money and see the same items everywhere.

But a custom-made piece of clothing only costs ten dollars.

Unique!

Seeing that she was interested, Chen Qing added fuel to the fire: "We have been colleagues for so many years and are good friends. I will also give you a discount on the first order. From now on, I will charge at least 20 yuan for each custom order."

"Then I want it!"

"okay."

Chen Qing smiled brightly.

Her eyes are magical, like a fox, with narrow corners. When she is not smiling, she looks very aggressive. When she smiles, her eyebrows and eyes are curved, and she is so sweet.

Tian Mengya understood why she was still the undisputed factory beauty even though the machinery factory had many employees from the art troupe.

beautiful.

It makes people feel the magic of the Creator.

And that He Yuan...

Originally, she mocked Chen Qing for not being worthy of him, but now she sees that He Yuan is a troublemaker who seduces Chen Qing, and he is not a good guy either!

"I'll give you the fabric tomorrow."

"And the measurements. Your clothes will probably take a week to be made because I have quite a few orders right now."

"it is good."

It is normal to wait for a week or half a month to make clothes.

Chen Qing got an order after working for a day.

A big order of ten dollars!
She happily ran straight to the state-owned hotel!

Rourou, she’s coming!

When she arrived at the state-owned restaurant, the waiter leaned over and asked lazily, "Meat tickets?"

"Hermitage..."

Chen Qing's mind froze for a moment.

As an employee of the factory committee and a family member of a martyr, the original owner received extra subsidies and two meat tickets a month, but it seemed that she had used them all up!
The original owner could eat it often, and bought it from Yang Xiujin.

She and Yang Xiujin are now breaking up.

What can I eat?

She smiled awkwardly: "Well, I didn't bring my ticket. I'll come back next time."

"Then leave quickly."

"……it is good."

Being a waiter in a state-owned restaurant is an absolutely high-quality, stable job.

Chen Qing can't afford to offend.

And the state-owned restaurant is her favorite place at the moment.

The chef at the machinery factory is a real chef!
Proficient in Cantonese and Hunan cuisine, every dish makes Chen Qing, a man whose takeout never costs more than twenty yuan, amazed.

Food is something that the more you think about it, the more you crave it, especially when you have decided to eat it but you haven't been able to eat it. Your appetite will stimulate your huge potential.

For this reason, Chen Qing went to the black market!
