The Wealthy Eldest Sister Rules Supreme-Chapter 553 - 540: Dead Loop

So it is.

Zhuang Qingning nodded slightly.

That is to say, the task reward issued by someone is extremely important.

If this task can be completed and a new loom is manufactured according to the diagram, the fabric produced will be much better in quality than before, and a certain market can be opened locally.

But in doing so…

The way to help Zhuang Yutian and Mrs. Meng solve the current problem is to ensure that they have enough fabric supplies. This will gain access to a new type of loom, which is a method to solve the fabric supply problem.

Wait, isn’t this just like the endless loop of needing an ID when signing for an express package?

Zhuang Qingning couldn’t help but rub her forehead in a bit of helplessness.

Indeed, if the rewards are better, the task becomes less easy.

This matter needs another solution.

Zhuang Qingning furrowed her brows deeply.

Seeing this, Zhuang Yutian and Mrs. Meng exchanged glances and sighed inwardly.

Zhuang Qingning is more thoughtful than ordinary people and can always think of ideas that others cannot. However, when there is no grain to cook, no matter how smart, there is no solution.

“Miss Ning, don’t be too downhearted. Things have gotten to this point. It would be best if there’s a chance to solve it. If there isn’t, it’s not a big deal. During this period, we’ll also search. If we can’t find it, we’ll just focus on the business of making mosquito repellent herbal packages.” Mrs. Meng advised.

“Yes.” Zhuang Yutian also echoed, “By the way, the cloth bag used for the mosquito repellent packs is not particular. Ordinary cloth can be used and local cloth can be used. The money earned from the mosquito repellent packs is much more than running a cloth shop. If we focus on this business, even if it’s only for half a year, it’s enough.”

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Qingning smiled, “Let me see if I can find a solution to this problem. If there’s a way, I’ll come and talk to Uncle Yutian and Auntie.”

“I’ll go look for Qingsui and the others now.”

Zhuang Qingning decided not to stay here longer since there wasn’t a good idea at the moment.

“Hmm, hurry up and go see the lanterns with Miss Sui. During the big festival, you should be happy and lively. Don’t worry about our problem.” Zhuang Yutian and Mrs. Meng sent Zhuang Qingning out the door.

After Zhuang Qingning walked away, they returned to the shop, looking at the scattered goods on the rack, and both husband and wife sighed with worry.

“My husband, are we still opening the shop today?” Mrs. Meng asked.

“Keep it open for now. If we close it, others may forget about our cloth shop even more.” Zhuang Yutian said, “I’ll go out again to see if I can meet someone and ask about the goods.”

“Right.” Mrs. Meng nodded, unfolding half of those cloths to make the display look sparser. It looked as if there were still some things on the shelves this way.

Zhuang Yutian then left the shop with a worried expression.

Zhuang Qingning was also walking forward with a gloomy expression.

Finding sources, finding sources…

The fabric business, which she had never touched before, was indeed a bit troublesome if you had to find sources.

However, since this is a task issued by someone…

Zhuang Qingning rolled her eyes.

[Friendly reminder, this task does not provide any material assistance from the system, so it cannot provide hosts with a large amount of fabric.]

It seems this won’t work.

Zhuang Qingning furrowed her brows even deeper and her footsteps slowed down.

There are people coming and going on the street. Carriages pass by from time to time. Feeling somewhat distracted, Zhuang Qingning stepped aside to avoid being brushed by the carriages.

But a carriage stopped in front of Zhuang Qingning, and a figure got off the carriage, “Manager Zhuang?”

Zhuang Qingning looked up and saw Cheng Ruize with a full grin, paid him a salute, “Hello, Manager Cheng.”

“Why is Manager Zhuang here alone? Is there something you need to do?” Cheng Ruize asked with a smile.

“I originally brought my sister here to the county town to hang out. We’re going to see the lanterns tonight. I just ran into Uncle Yutian and had a few words with him.” Zhuang Qingning glanced at the fact that the carriage Cheng Ruize was riding in was not a car with a carriage, but a carriage for transporting goods. There were piles of goods on the carriage, and she couldn’t help but smile. “Manager Cheng, are you transporting goods?”

Not spending the Lantern Festival at home, he was already personally transporting goods. One had to say, Cheng Ruize was a real workaholic who didn’t rest for a moment.

“Yes, I am transporting goods, but they are not new.”

A bitter smile surfaced on Cheng Ruize’s face. “A few years ago, our family opened a cloth shop in Zeng County. The business was not good, and we closed a few years ago. The remaining goods were stored in a nearby village to wait for us to transport to another shop.”

“”The year the business was booming, something happened at home. The original shopkeeper of that cloth shop got seriously ill. As a result, everyone forgot about the remaining goods until the steward of the village asked us for the money for keeping the goods this year. I went to check.”

“The cloth was originally good, but it had been casually stored for four or five years. Many of the pieces had become damp, and the patterns were no longer fashionable. Besides, the cloths looked somewhat old.”

“These things can be sold if the price is lowered, but for Cheng’s cloth shop, even if they are sold at a reduced price, they are sold from Cheng’s cloth shop. It is not good for the reputation. I am worrying about how to deal with these cloths.”

Stock cloths?

There is a bright light in Zhuang Qingning’s eyes. “Manager Cheng, may I take a look at these cloths?”

“Sure, sure.” Cheng Ruize looked around and said, “Then, I would like to ask Manager Zhuang to walk forward with me.”

On this main street, with people coming and going, their two carriages were both parked here, which somewhat hindered other people’s normal walking.

“Thank you, Manager Cheng.” Zhuang Qingning thanked him.

“Manager Zhuang, you’re too polite.” Cheng Ruize laughed, ordered the buddy to drive the carriage to the side street, and followed slowly behind Zhuang Qingning.

When they arrived at a place with fewer people, they stopped the carriage. Cheng Ruize and the buddy loosened the solid hemp rope and took off the thick waterproof cloth on top.

As soon as the cloth was opened, Zhuang Qingning smelled a strong mildew smell. Some cloth even had scattered mildew spots.

Although most of the cloths are still good, just by looking, smelling, and touching, you would know they are cloths that have been stored for many years.

However, the quality of these cloth pieces is indeed good; they are delicate, soft, and the colors appear quite bright.

“This cloth looks pretty good,” Zhuang Qingning said.
