The little one's purse connects the two worlds, turning a desolate village into a paradise.

Zhao Jiale chuckled, "That's right, I just got a batch of clothes and shoes. I've been waiting for you. I didn't even use a loudspeaker to announce these items. I was afraid that if you didn't come, the loudspeaker would attract other people and they would all buy them, and I would miss out on the stock."

Ya Ya exclaimed, touched, "Wow, brother, you're so kind! Thank you!"

Actually, Zhao Jiale had forgotten to charge the speaker before going to bed, but he shamelessly accepted Ya Ya's sincere thanks and pointed to the clothes on the stall: "Come on, take a look at these clothes."

Ya Ya put the cart aside, leaned over to the stall and took a look down, her eyes immediately drawn to the bright red training uniform.

This style is somewhat similar to the coarse linen clothes they made themselves before, except that this red is much brighter and looks softer.

The cuffs and pant legs are gathered, which saves Uncle Zhao and Brother Da Niu from having to tie the pant legs with rubber bands!

There was also a small set next to it, a light pink color, a shade lighter than the plaid jacket I was wearing. There was also a dark blue one, similar in color to the batch of factory uniforms I bought from the clearance sale guy earlier.

Everyone loves this color; it's dirt-resistant, and it doesn't show up easily if you accidentally get oil stains or dust on your clothes.

"Big brother, how do you know how to source goods so well! Every color is so beautiful, and the styles of the clothes are so practical!" Ya Ya held a mangosteen red training uniform in her little hand, her lips curled up, and she stared at Zhao Jiale with admiration.

"How much are these clothes? Are they one size fits all, like the previous ones?"

Zhao Jiale shook his head. "These clothes aren't one-size-fits-all; they come in different sizes. The one you're holding is a small size, usually for women. The pink one is for children."

As he spoke, he picked up the pink little exercise clothes and held them up against Ya Ya: "Look, this is about right for you, but adults can't wear it. Hmm... it's still a bit big. You can ask your parents to alter it a little when you get home. You still need to grow taller. I remember you have a few younger brothers, right?"

"Yes! I have two younger brothers in my village!" Ya Ya nodded vigorously.

"The little boy is growing a bit slower than the little girl, so they're probably both a bit big. But there are advantages to being big; he can wear them for a long time and still wear them when he grows taller."

"right!"

"Calculate how many items you want to buy, how many are men's and how many are women's, and I'll help you check how much it will cost."

Hearing the older boy's words, Ya Ya silently counted, but she didn't intend to buy them by the number of people. Instead of directly answering Zhao Jiale's question, she pointed to the pink practice clothes and asked, "Big brother, how many sets of these pink clothes for little kids are there in total?"

Zhao Jiale quickly counted, head down: "There are six sets of the pink mini version in total."

"What about the red adult clothes?"

"There are eighteen red sets. They are all for women, except for two sizes that are a bit larger, so even men who aren't particularly tall or strong can wear them."

"What about the blue one?"

"There are 22 sets of blue ones, mostly in men's sizes, and only two sets in women's sizes."

Ya Ya counted on her fingers, adding things up, but by the end her mind was a bit muddled and she couldn't figure it out no matter what she did. Finally, she stomped her foot and exclaimed, "Hey, forget it! I want all these clothes, little brother! How much are they?"

Zhao Jiale was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, and the corners of his mouth that had been turned up at some point couldn't be suppressed.

He bought a total of 46 sets, at a purchase price of 68 yuan per set, spending a huge sum of 3,128 yuan, which almost emptied his family's savings.

He had considered that his big customers might buy his yellow jacket, but he estimated that, like the last two times, they would probably buy around twenty sets. It seemed like there were only a little over twenty people in their village.

Who would have thought that the little boy's generosity would suddenly increase, and he bought everything in one go!

Oh my, this is incredible!

He needs to think about how much he can earn.

"How about I give you a price of eighty-eighty sets? I need to make a little profit, too. These clothes were expensive to buy, unlike the clearance cotton-padded jackets we had before. The material is double-layered pure linen, and the workmanship is solid. I really can't lower the price, so..."

The old man next to me twitched his fingers behind his back.

"Young man, you didn't sell it to me for this price just now, wasn't it one hundred and eight? You...you...you..."

Zhao Jiale chuckled: "Sir, this is the wholesale price. Retail prices are not the same as wholesale prices. Besides, that kid is a regular customer of mine. He came in and left right away. It wouldn't be right not to give him a discount."

"Hmph!" The old man understood the logic, but it just didn't feel right when it came to him.

He coughed lightly, glanced at the little girl squatting on the ground, muttering to herself as she did math, and then, with a quick thought, reminded her, "Little girl, you need to look carefully when you buy so many clothes. There are words on the back of the clothes. You're buying them for your family, right? You should ask them if they mind, see if the elders like them, and whether they can read."

"I can read, but not all of them. Let me see, Grandpa, how do you read these words?" After hearing the old man's words, Ya Ya realized that she hadn't seen the whole thing yet. She hadn't seen the back of the shirt, so she quickly reached out and picked up a shirt, unfolded it, and looked at both the front and back carefully.

There really were six large characters embroidered with fine gold thread.

"Grandpa will teach you. These words are pronounced 'Youyuan Xiangju Dance Troupe.' 'You' means friend, and 'Yuan' means fate. Do you understand 'dance troupe'? It means a dance group or team."

Zhao Jiale's smile froze instantly.

Oh no! He actually forgot about that.

He didn't mean to rip off the kid; he'd just sold her a batch of factory uniforms before, and she hadn't minded the writing on them. She hadn't bothered him after taking them home, so it seemed she was quite satisfied. He'd subconsciously forgotten about the writing, realizing he hadn't reminded her properly. Maybe… he could just earn a few less dollars to make up for his oversight.

The old man's lips curled into a mysterious smile.

Now you'll think it's outdated, right? Let's see what this little girl has to say.

Zhao Jiale rubbed his hands awkwardly, just about to speak up to smooth things over, when he saw the child squatting across the stall with eyes that shone even brighter than before.

She reached out her little hand and gently stroked the row of gold embroidery threads on her back, as if touching some rare treasure, and smiled brightly.

"Oh my, what a lovely name! 'Friendship Gathering'—we can only come together because we're friends, right? It's perfect for our village! And the dance troupe, oh my, it's so fitting! I'm currently teaching everyone square dancing! The ribbons are so pretty, all golden!"

The old man opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Good heavens, so it really is true... it's really a case of two peas in a pod falling in love!

Zhao Jiale, who was about to speak, froze on the spot, stammering for a long time before staring blankly at Ya Ya: "You...you really like it? You really don't mind?"
