After the two of them had eaten and drank enough. Qiao Wen remembered the suit beside the bed. He brought the clothes over and said, “Brother Nan, this is a sample of our factory’s new brand. I took a set of your size. You help me to try it to see how it works?”
Chen Jianan took it over curiously and said with a smile: “I have never worn a suit before!”
This suit came with a white shirt underneath. Chen Jianan took off the T-shirt that smelled of medicine on his body, revealing his body full of scars. Qiao Wen’s eyelids jumped, but he himself acted as if he didn’t notice it. After putting on the shirt, he brushed his hair like a dandy, curled his lips and asked with a smile: “How is it?”
Qiao Wen stepped forward and reached out to fix his slightly crooked collar.
With warm fingers across his neck, Chen Jianan’s heart trembled slightly, and he lowered his eyelids subconsciously to look at him.
At this moment, the distance between the two was just a few inches, Qiao Wen’s height just reached his brow bone, and when he lowered his eyes in this way, he happened to see the other party’s fan-like long eyelashes, the tip of the nose, and the slightly parted lips.
Chen Jianan suddenly felt a little hot, and subconsciously took a step back and raised his hand to hold the collar: “I’ll do it myself.”
Then he breathed out inexplicably.
Qiao Wen’s attention was all drawn to the suit, so he failed to notice his abnormalities and looked up at him, up and down, and couldn’t help showing a touch of surprise.
As a four-ninth boy, he always dressed casually, and occasionally has a bit of a posterior style. However, with his taller figure and a handsome face, he was very suitable for formal wear.
After putting on the suit, he completely turned into a new person, like a dashing and noble aristocrat, no one could tell that he was a boy from a slum.
The more Qiao Wen looked at him, the more satisfied he became, he couldn’t bear to take his eyes away. After looking up for a while, he raised his head and smiled again: “Brother Nan, you are really handsome in a suit.”
Chen Jianan was originally thick-skinned like a city wall, but at this moment, after being praised by him like this, and looking at his smiling face, he suddenly felt a rare sense of shyness for some reason, and even his hands and feet seemed to have no place to put them. He cleared his throat as if trying to cover it up, and said: “I was already very handsome, the first pretty boy in the walled city is me.” After saying this, he hurriedly added, “No, I am the second, you are the first.”
Qiao Wen was amused by him: “I am not as handsome as you in a suit.”
What he said was not modest. Although the original body did have a beautiful face that attracted evil and ghosts, his body was far inferior to the tall and straight Chen Jianan.
Because of the praise, Chen Jianan was a little reluctant to take off the suit right away, and asked curiously: “How much would a suit like yours cost?”
Qiao Wen said: “We are going to do a mid-to-high-end brand, which is expected to be around a few hundred yuan.”
Chen Jianan’s eyes widened: “A few hundred yuan for a set of clothes, then selling a few thousand pieces a year, wouldn’t it be a few million?”
Qiao Wen laughed: “What about the cost? Although the materials and labor are not expensive at the moment, the store advertising is not a small amount. If you can only sell a few thousand pieces a year, you can’t make much money. I did the math that selling at least 50,000 pieces is considered a preliminary success, and this is only in Hong Kong, in the future it will be sold to Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Southeast Asia and various countries around the world.” There is also the mainland of the motherland that will develop rapidly in the future.
Chen Jianan looked at him with awe, and said sincerely, “It sounds so amazing.”
Qiao Wen smiled and said: “This is just an idea. Whether it can succeed depends on the situation.” Although in the original book, Lin Zihui performed all aspects of the industry to depict his halo, clothing manufacturing is only one of them, that didn’t focus on description, but he was still very confident in Lin Zihui. In addition, with the rapid economic development of Hong Kong City, white-collar workers and above and the middle class have become an important part of the social group. The mid-to-high-end business formalwear market for local brands is almost blank, which is indeed a good opportunity for them.
Chen Jianan said with a smile, “You and the four-eyed boy will definitely succeed.”
“According to your auspicious words.”
Chen Jianan turned around, held his shoulders, and said in a moment: “Xiao Qiao, you are really completely different from before.”
Qiao Wen smiled and shook his head, as if asking casually: “Then do you like the former me or the present me?”
However, Chen Jianan seemed to be stumped by this question, frowned for a moment, and said: “You used to be like my brother, but now you are not like a brother…”
Qiao Wen interrupted him: “So you no longer want the current me?”
“Of course not!” Chen Jianan explained hurriedly. “It’s still the same as before, but it feels a little different. Oh, I can’t tell.”
He scratched his hair with a distressed face.
Qiao Wen deliberately teased him. Seeing his appearance, he couldn’t help but smile: “I understand, people always grow up. In the past, you used to take care of me. Now that I grow up, I can take care of you.”
“That’s not right? If it weren’t for you, I would have died in Vietnam.”
Qiao Wen: “If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have to go to Vietnam.”
“Why are you saying this again?” Chen Jianan looked like he was afraid of him, and pretended to ruffle his hair fiercely.
The main thing about how well the formal suit was does not depend on its texture, but how it could turn the person into a new one. After seeing the masterpiece of the four-ninth boy turning into a nobleman show how good it was.
After returning from a long break, Qiao Wen naturally had trouble catching fish and not wanting to mess around, he rolled up his sleeves with the fighting spirit Lin Zihui and entered workaholic mode.
The new clothing brand was called “Mengzhen”, a simple and auspicious name. For the two young people, what they hoped most now was the fruit of their dreams— although Qiao Wen didn’t really know what his own dreams were in this day and age.
Young Master Hui’s growth has been nothing short of miraculous. In just two or three months, he has transformed from a tender young man who came in at the beginning and was not taken seriously by the workers, to a thunderous young proprietor. Because of the improved treatment, the workers were full of energy, especially the old employees who were selected to enter the new production line, were eager to use their own eighteen skills.
The production lines were all set. The next step was to choose the store and prepare for the opening of the first store.
