Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 355: Another Order Comes Knocking

"Director Dong, what brings you here?"

He greeted him warmly, his face full of enthusiasm.

Dong Guoqiang nodded slightly at him: "The factory needs to prepare a batch of year-end bonuses, so I came to take a look."

He’s here to discuss orders.

Liu Changjiang’s expression became even more enthusiastic.

Red Star Clothing Factory is one of the top clothing factories in their city. If they can secure this deal, it’s much better than the detergent factory.

Liu Changjiang immediately straightened up with pride.

"Director Dong, please, have a seat here, let’s talk in detail. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely get you the best price..."

He was rambling on when Dong Guoqiang interrupted with a frown: "Sorry, I’m here to see Comrade Su."

Dong Guoqiang had inadvertently heard about the election for the sales department manager position at the Second Department Store and came immediately.

He absolutely had to help with this. Maybe in the future, Comrade Su could help design a few more clothing styles.

The clothing styles they produced after buying from Comrade Su were selling like hotcakes. The sales of several of their styles combined couldn’t match it.

If he could win Comrade Su’s favor, the next hit product could be expected.

"What? You’re here to see Su Xiaoxiao?"

Liu Changjiang was about to explode with anger. Why are they all looking for that damn girl?

But before he could react, Dong Guoqiang had already spotted Su Xiaoxiao and approached her warmly.

"Comrade Su, long time no see."

Glancing sideways, he saw Li Zhenhua, "Old Li, why are you here too?"

Could he be here to compete for her attention too?

"I came for what you came for. Comrade Su helped me a lot, I have to support her in this."

Li Zhenhua said.

"Can your little order support anything? You better take a rest."

After mocking him, Dong Guoqiang looked eagerly at Su Xiaoxiao, "Comrade Su, are you available now? Shall we discuss the order?"

Li Zhenhua stood his ground: "Comrade Su, we agreed earlier. If anyone’s discussing this, it’s me first."

"Dong Guoqiang, do you understand order of arrival?"

"My orders are bigger, I should obviously go first!"

Dong Guoqiang defended himself righteously.

Together, they were almost ninety years old, but they acted like children.

Su Xiaoxiao helplessly rubbed her forehead. Just as she was about to speak, she saw a customer coming in.

She had to say, "Sorry, Directors, please wait on the side. I have a customer here."

The two men exchanged a glance, snorted coldly, and shoved each other aside to wait.

Seeing this, Liu Changjiang thought to himself, this damned girl really has no sense. She doesn’t even know how to seize opportunities, leaving two Gods of Wealth hanging for an ordinary customer.

He immediately put on a smile and approached: "Director Li, Director Dong, since Comrade Su is busy, why not let me handle this? As her direct superior, you can come to me with any questions..."

But after he said this, neither of the two Buddhas paid him any attention, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward.

"Well, if I remember correctly, Manager Liu, no, Comrade Liu, weren’t you looking down on our small Second Department Store, planning to jump ship to the First Department Store? We are all still employees of the Second Department Store."

At this moment, a sarcastic voice came from the side.

Liu Changjiang’s brow twitched. He never realized before how annoying Zhang Yulan could be.

Why expose that he’s already resigned at this time?

Seeing the two directors’ eyes turn toward him, Liu Changjiang hastily explained, "It’s a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. I’m still here at the Second Department Store, am I not?"

"If I remember correctly, Comrade Liu, you’ve already resigned. You’re not an employee of our Second Department Store now."

Zhang Yulan timely added.

Liu Changjiang’s face almost turned red with anger, but he couldn’t lose his temper in front of the two directors and had to swallow it back.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao just finished her work and came over.

The two directors were all over her with enthusiasm, completely the opposite of their earlier attitude toward Liu Changjiang.

Liu Changjiang: "..."

Su Xiaoxiao took the two to meet with Chen Meilan and finalized the order. With the orders from both the detergent and clothing factories, her performance was directly three times that of Liu Changjiang’s. Surpassing him seemed impossible.

Upon hearing the news, Liu Changjiang was so infuriated he wanted to deflate the tires of Su Xiaoxiao’s bicycle, primarily because he had no other recourse.

Looking across the entire Binhe City, he couldn’t find a similar factory larger than these two today. Where could he get such large orders?

It’s over. It’s really over now!

It’s all because of this damn girl. Just wait, he’ll make sure she gets what’s coming to her!

Su Xiaoxiao uncontrollably sneezed, rubbed her nose, and hurried her steps toward the department store’s entrance.

Due to dealing with the order, she was a bit delayed and didn’t know if Chen Guanghai had left.

Meanwhile, Chen Guanghai was squatting by the curb with his village mate, Zhou Jian, waiting for Su Xiaoxiao.

Zhou Jian kept looking around but never saw the female comrade that Chen Guanghai mentioned, feeling a bit uneasy.

"Brother Chen, do you think that female comrade reneged on her promise?"

Sea cucumber, something their coastal fishermen knew well for its nutritional value, was unfamiliar to inland people. Few liked it.

This time they tried their luck out of desperation because of their difficult situation at home.

"No, she even wanted to give me a deposit, but I refused. How could she renege if she wanted to put down a deposit?"

Despite what he said, Chen Guanghai was still somewhat uncertain inside.

After all, eight hundred bucks wasn’t a small sum. It would make sense if the woman reconsidered and decided against it.

If he had bought so much of something not tasty all at once, his household wouldn’t let him live it down.

"Brother Chen, maybe we shouldn’t wait any longer? It’s been a while now; if she truly wanted to come, she should’ve been here by now."

Deep down, Zhou Jian felt that Brother Chen might have been duped but was too embarrassed to say it outright, so he suggested it indirectly.

"Let’s wait a bit longer. If she doesn’t come soon, we’ll leave."

Chen Guanghai was also panicked inside. If Comrade Su didn’t come, he’d have to carry the sea cucumbers back as they were.

These hundred pounds of sea cucumbers had been carried here with Zhou Jian all the way by train, purely by physical strength.

Not to mention the hardship, going home empty-handed would be hard to explain to everyone in the village.

Each of these over a hundred pounds of sea cucumbers was selected and sun-dried with great effort for the best appearance.

"Okay, Brother Chen, let’s wait a little longer."

Zhou Jian, seeing Chen Guanghai insisted, squatted back down. Just then, a pleasant female voice came from behind.
