The elder sister who was working at the door was fine. She saw a little girl carrying two big bags and was not prepared at all, so she asked Cao Xiaolan what was on sale this time. When she found out it was the clothes, she lent her three plastic mannequins to help her move in.

The seats were divided according to the price. For example, the highest one would cost two hundred dollars a day when one entered the main entrance, while the ones at the corner would be cheaper. On the fifty-first day, Cao Xiaolan felt that she could not afford to save money at this time, so she chose a one hundred and twenty-one day place from the few remaining stalls.

On the left was a woman in her forties with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. Her hair was in a roll up and she rolled her eyes when she saw Cao Xiaolan. She mocked, "What is this? I've never seen anything like this in my life. Sister, I think you are doomed to lose everything today."

Cao Xiaolian's seat was bigger than both of them, but it was also more expensive than theirs. She had so much fabric that she couldn't even move a small space. Seeing Cao Xiaolian rent such a large space with only five sets of clothes, Cao Xiaolian felt a bit sad.

Cao Xiaolian ignored her. The woman on the right, who looked to be in her fifties, said, "It's none of your business if they can't sell. No one has ordered from you since yesterday. If I were you, I'd worry about myself."

"You!" The skinny woman coldly snorted. "Aren't you the same? You have the face to scold others."

"Little girl, don't bother with her. She just can't stand to see anyone else." The amiable woman began to get excited, "What kind of clothes are these? They look really nice and warm. I've never seen such a style before."

Cao Xiaolian smiled, "Auntie, this is a down jacket. It's quite warm to wear in winter, and it's especially warm."

As he said this, business came knocking.

A man with big back hair was looking around with his hands behind his back. He looked at the surroundings casually as if nothing had caught his eye. However, when he saw Cao Xiaolian's clothes, his eyes lit up.

He first felt for the clothes and then rubbed them with his hands. He tossed and turned a few times before finally opening his mouth, "Little girl, your clothes look really unfamiliar."

Cao Xiaoling pursed her lips and smiled. "It's called a down jacket. It's filled with duck feathers. They are very warm and windproof. You don't have to worry about the cold when you wear it in winter."

Big Back was stunned when he heard this. "I've been making clothes for so many years, but I didn't know that duck feathers could be used as raw materials."

If Cao Xiaolian knew about his background, she would probably faint from happiness.

It turned out that this man was the head of a shopping mall in the capital. He was in the midst of a transformation and was preparing to expand his apparel. One had to know that their shopping mall was located at the bus stop, and there were a lot of people passing by every day. A hundred people consuming a single piece of clothing would earn them a considerable amount of income over the course of a year.

Everyone said that the clothes in Shanghai were beautiful, but this time, he deliberately rushed over. Even after looking for a long time, he was still unable to find anything satisfactory. The patterns were good, but they were too thin.

It was winter in the north, and the wind was biting cold.

He had originally planned to return, but now that he was about to leave, he had unexpectedly come to the fair. It didn't matter if he didn't look, he had immediately discovered what he liked.

It was both beautiful and warm. Wasn't this what he needed?

Big Back made a prompt decision. "Little girl, if I were to order a large number of items, would you be able to supply them?"

Cao Xiaolian was stunned, "I have not introduced you properly yet."

"Haha." He laughed, "I've been making clothes for so many years. I can tell whether the items are good for sale or not with a single glance. I'll take you then, but I need at least 5000 pieces for each design. Can you supply them to me?"

Not only Cao Xiaolian, but the other two women were also shocked.

A design of 5000 pieces, five pieces, that was 25,000 pieces, and they said that it was in the early stages.

Cao Xiaoling thought for a while. Today, she could call Chen Lifen and ask her to get the duck feathers for Zhang Luo. She could arrange the fabric here and start the work when she got back. It would take at least a month.

"Sure!"

In this day and age, starve to death the timid, the bold, and besides, do not lose the opportunity, do not come again. She could not forgive herself for letting go of the big fish.

However, she wouldn't sell it so cheaply herself.

"I would like to ask you, do you want me to give you the pure production of clothes? Or do you want to buy my copyright? "

Big Back was stunned. Looking at the fifteen-sixteen year old girl in front of him, he asked, "How are you going to buy clothes? How are you going to buy copyright?"

"It's very simple. If you are purely here to buy clothes, then we will calculate the amount per piece. As for how much you need, I will make and transport it to you. But as for how I am now, I can also sell it to other manufacturers."

The big backside was puzzled, it had always been like this, could it be that there was another way?

He gestured to Cao Xiaolian to continue, "What about the other one?"

The other is that you have to pay me the design fee for my clothing. According to the appearance and price, other than that, I will not sell this set of clothes to anyone else. It's the same year in the market.

This was a common way for future generations. Every brand had its own copyright protection, but as of now, it was very novel.

"Interesting." The man looked at Cao Xiaolian again and finally looked at her seriously. He no longer thought of her as a child and said, "Alright, I will follow the second method and buy your copyright."

Everything was going so smoothly.

After signing the contract, he handed it over to Cao Xiaoling and teased, "Little girl, you have to think carefully. If you sign your name and turn back to reveal your copyright, you'll have to pay double the amount of compensation."

Cao Xiaoling wrote down her name without a second thought. "Don't worry. I have a long term view of business. A person who goes back on their word cannot stand up for themselves in the business world."

The man with the big back looked at Cao Xiaoling with interest and asked, "Little sister, what is your family doing?"

He felt that what kind of family could actually raise a monkey spirit child? It could be said that she was shrewd, but her eyes were as deep as water, and he couldn't see any fluctuations in them at all.

Cao Xiaolian laughed, "I only sell clothes. I'm not responsible for checking the account number."

With a single sentence, his curiosity was piqued.

After Big Back left in satisfaction, the harsh woman changed from her usual self and came over to ask, "Hey, sis, such a big deal, let me tell you. I just saw you and I think you're very capable."

Cao Xiaolian smiled, "Thank you. I'm counting on your blessings." However, he no longer paid any attention to her.

The woman was unrelenting, "Girl, you took such a big order all at once, and the materials aren't fixed yet right? Let me tell you, you're in such a hurry. If you go somewhere else, you won't be able to find so much stock."

Seeing that Cao Xiao did not answer, she continued, "How about we just so happen to have ordered a batch of materials for the Taiwanese customers. However, since they violated the rules, we decided to save the materials. They're all top-notch items, you'll like them the moment you see them. "

Seeing her blabbering on and on, Cao Xiaolian said, "Thank you, but I've already made up my mind."

However, in order to win over a big client, she still forced a smile and said, "Don't blame me for saying that. You are young and have only started this business a long time ago. I think you are probably not a good person. Go back and have a look at our side."

Cao Xiaolian started to pack up her things. Since she was selling her copyright and the contract was already signed, she might as well go back as soon as possible.

Seeing that Cao Xiaolian was about to leave, the woman was angered, "Pfft, you don't know what's good for you. Let's see what you can use to make clothes for her then."

Cao Xiaolian was too lazy to talk to such a person. She felt that talking to her would lower her standards.

After returning home with his bag, they met He Qing the moment they entered the main gate.

"Ah, Xiao Lian." He Qing was holding a basket filled with ribs and lotus roots. She looked at He Qing with great surprise, "I heard from Little He that you went to the fair early in the morning. Why did you come back so early?"

Cao Xiaolan had a good impression of He Qing.

She was a very clean and pure person, with no harm done to her heart, so she was very grateful for everything. To a stranger who they had met by chance, he could even extend a helping hand.

"Sister He Qing, it just so happens that I'm looking for you."

"Why are you looking for me? Go ahead."

"I'd like to use the army phone." Cao Xiaolian felt a little embarrassed. If she could, she would not bother with others. Even if she booked a ticket today, it would still take two days. If she called now, Chen Lifen would be in a hurry to pick up the duck feathers in the next two days. Plus, she had to stay behind to make the fabric.

"Hey, I thought it was something big." He Qing laughed, "The phone is in the office. Come, come with me. When we go back later, we will always pass by. "After the call, come and sit at my house. Let's have the stew tonight."

Cao Xiaoliu took the basket and the two began to talk about what had happened today. When He Qing heard that Cao Xiaoliu had signed a big deal, she was surprised and happy, and praised her.

When he arrived at the office, he saw a girl in a military uniform. She was very cultured and elegant. When she saw He Qing, she stood up and saluted politely, "Sister-in-law is here."

"My sister, would you like to use my phone and call me back?"

"Sure!" The girl pointed at the phone, "You can dial the area code and phone number directly."

After Cao Xiaolian thanked him, she sat down and dialed the phone number in her factory.

This phone call was from Shang Yin, he said that since the factory was already set up, they must have all these things. Since she had not left the store for a long time, and Chen Lifen had also resigned from the mall, the phone was Chen Lifen's office and Cao Xiaoling's office.

After a long while, no one came to pick him up.

Cao Xiaoling frowned. What was going on? Chen Lifen should be in the factory at this time.

He dialed another number, but still no one answered.

Cao Xiaolian was panicking, but He Qing opened her eyes wide and said considerately, "What's wrong, is there no one at home?"

"Ah, no one answered."

"Maybe he went out. Let's go back first and put down the things. When the stew is ready, we can go down again later."

That was the only way.

On the way, He Qing talked and laughed, but Cao Xiaolan's heart felt heavy. She felt as if something bad was about to happen.
