Fang Hong still didn't say anything, just sat quietly beside them.

Waiting for Qin Xue to talk, Fang Xiu didn't expect Qin Xue to say this.

Indeed, there was usually no business, and besides rent and fabric expenses, there was barely enough money for food each month without any extra.

It was fine if no one got sick, but if they did, there'd be no money for medical treatment.

The conditions offered by Qin Xue were indeed great. If Qin Xue's business could be stable, it would be better for her.

"Miss, is this stable?" Fang Hong was still worried about the stability.

"Don't worry, boss lady. As long as I want to do it, I'll keep doing it.

If you have any concerns, feel free to bring them up." Qin Xue could see that Fang Xiu was tempted, and that it was hard for a single mother to support her child.

"I don't really have any other requirements, but I'm afraid I can't meet your requirements with me being alone and raising my child."

Fang Xiu knew that no workplace would let her bring her child, so she was genuinely anxious.

"No problem. I proposed those two points because I saw you struggling with raising your child by yourself. You can choose one."

Qin Xue did want to help Fang Xiu. Otherwise, either option would be difficult for Fang Xiu with her child.

Now the child was still young and could be carried or put on a bed, but when the child got older and started crawling and walking around, it would be more difficult to watch them.

If Fang Hong came, the two would have company and could help each other.

"Alright, I will tell you my idea and you decide if it's possible?

I was originally a bride, but after some things happened, I had to support my child on my own.

My brother from my mother's side helped me to set up this store, and I won't mention anything else.

I didn't want to let the store go, but since you mentioned the terms, I have no choice.

Can all the fabric in this shop be used as my investment capital?

I am not greedy, I just want some guarantee. What do you think?" Fang Xiu asked, thickening her face.

If she didn't invest, there would be no way out. It's better to gamble everything and block her retreat.

Qin Xue was genuinely shocked after listening. This Fang Xiu was something, very far-sighted.

She even knew about profit-sharing, not an ordinary woman. But for the sake of women in the same difficult situation, she would agree.

So she could focus on her work in the future, but what about the contract she initially signed with Fang Hong?

Qin Xue was wondering how to split the profits appropriately. She originally said she would provide designs and money for 60 percent, while Fang Hong didn't need to contribute capital, only labor.

Now, adding another person who was also contributing fabric, it wouldn't be fair to give them an even smaller share, right?

If she hadn't signed a contract with Fang Hong at the beginning, it would have been fine. But now, it was indeed a little difficult for Qin Xue.

Fang Hong didn't expect Fang Xiu to propose such conditions.

Seeing Qin Xue not speaking, she must be thinking about the original deal they had agreed on: Fang Hong would contribute her labor for a 40 percent share.

Now that Fang Xiu wanted to invest fabric for equity, how to split the profits was indeed a challenge! After thinking it over, she finally said:

"Boss lady, I can agree to that, but I also want to rent the shop next door to turn it into a clothing store.

From now on, we will make our own clothes to sell. I'll give you 30% of the profits, what do you think?" Qin Xue uttered this to test Fang Xiu to see if they could cooperate even more!

"No need, just give me a monthly salary and ten percent of the profits, that's enough.

It's already inconvenient for me to raise my child alone. No matter what happens, as long as I have a salary, I can support myself and my child.

The fabric investment was just to provide some security for my child, and I initially made the request with a thick face." f(r)eenovelkiss.com

"I didn't think you'd agree to my terms." Fang Xiu wasn't a greedy person; she just wanted to provide some security for her child since she was all alone without money or influence.

Now that Qin Xue had agreed, how could she accept so much?

"In that case, let's change the offer. I'll buy all the fabric for the clothes, and I'll give you a monthly salary plus commission. Additionally, I'll give you 10% bonus at the end of each year. What do you think?" Qin Xue thought about it and felt that it would be better for her to just cover everything herself, as it would be more straightforward.

"Qin Xue, your idea is good. I'd like you to do the same for me, and let's just forget about our previous agreement. This works well." Fang Hong thought Qin Xue's method was good.

Otherwise, if Qin Xue gave away 30% and paid for the design herself, she would take less than Fang Hong, which didn't sit well with her conscience.

"Sis, that's not right. We need to follow through with our agreement." The main reason Qin Xue gave the share was to repay Fang Hong's kindness and care.

Now that Fang Hong had said that, Qin Xue felt that she was going back on her word,

"No, Qin Xue, I know you're trying to help me, but I also know that you're the one putting in the most. I can't take advantage of you. Please, let's just divide it like this." Fang Hong didn't want to take advantage of the kind Qin Xue. It was like Mr. Xie said, one must have a long-term perspective.

Qin Xue saw that Fang Hong was not being insincere and agreed after some thought.

In the end, Fang Hong and Fang Xiu each received a monthly salary of US$ 50. They made US$ 1 in commission for each garment they produced. The more they produced, the more they earned, and they received a 10% bonus at the end of the year!

After signing the contracts, both parties held on to a copy. Qin Xue converted the store's items into money for Fang Xiu and rented out the store next door.

She told Fang Xiu that Fang Hong would bring her sewing machine to the store tomorrow to work together. After asking where Fang Xiu sourced her fabrics, she took Fang Hong to the black market to find Li Zhao.

All the way there, Qin Xue's head-turning rate was 100%. After all, who had seen anyone wear such fashionable clothes?

After asking for Li Zhao's address, Qin Xue and Fang Hong went straight to his house with two bags of fruit.

It was a beautiful two-story house, surrounded by flowers and plants, with a big iron gate. The environment was so beautiful, and Qin Xue couldn't help but appreciate it. She rang the doorbell and waited for someone to open the door.

"May I know who you're looking for?" The door was opened by a woman dressed in a long skirt, who was very beautiful and had a gentle demeanor. She looked at Qin Xue and Fang Hong and asked softly.

"Hello, is this Li Zhao's place?" Qin Xue asked with a smile.

"Yes, who are you, and what business do you have with Zhaozi?"

An Hao looked at Qin Xue, an absolute beauty, with her perfect curves and enticing waist and hips. She was truly a favorite of the heavens. Especially her exceptional aura made her stand out from others. An Hao wondered what business such a woman could have with Li Zhao. Could she be his lover? An Hao's expression darkened at the thought.

Qin Xue saw the woman's changing expression and hoped that she didn't think there was something between her and Li Zhao.

She didn't want that! She really should have asked before coming.

"Hello, I am Li Zhao's friend. I just wanted to ask him a few questions." Qin Xue tried to explain.

"Oh, please come in." An Hao invited them inside, poured tea for them, and then went upstairs to call someone.

Qin Xue and Fang Hong placed the fruits on the table and sat upright, not looking around.

They both looked up when they heard footsteps, and saw Li Zhao coming down the stairs in casual clothes and slippers, followed by the woman they had just met.

Qin Xue stood up and greeted, "Hi Zhaozi, sorry for disturbing you without notice."

It was only when Qin Xue spoke up that Li Zhao realized who she was. He hadn't recognized her at first.

How could she have changed so much in just a few days? She had gone from a village girl to a fashionable lady!

"Oh, it's you, Qin Xue! Sit down, don't stand on ceremony. Have some tea. What brings you here today? Is there something you need help with?"

"Zhaozi, I did come here for some help. I wanted to ask if you know of any renovation teams. I rented a storefront on the East Side and wanted to find someone to renovate it. But I don't know anyone, so I thought you might know people in the city and came to ask. I apologize for coming without notice."

Qin Xue didn't want to create misunderstandings, so she explained her intentions directly.
