Chapter 1774: Joining with Design Drawings, Giving You Ten Percent of the Dry Shares

~4 min read 659 words

Liu Chuxue raised her hand to signal her to continue.

Jiang Wenyue coughed lightly and said, "I heard you have a cooperation with the clothing factory in the city?"

Liu Chuxue didn't expect she would know about this: "Where did you find out?"

Jiang Wenyue didn't hide it either: "My friend and I are preparing to take over a clothing factory. We sent people ahead to various department stores to stake out and conduct investigations, discovering that several styles of clothes on the counters were selling very well.

After asking around privately, we learned they came from a clothing factory in the city.

It took some effort to trace those styles back to you, so here I am."

Liu Chuxue didn't expect Jiang Wenyue to move so fast: "Your daily chemical factory isn't enough to keep you busy? Why open a clothing factory too? Isn't that taking too big a step?"

Jiang Wenyue didn't expect Liu Chuxue to say that, so she explained, "This is a new group of partners, not the same guys from the daily chemical business."

Liu Chuxue saw her speak so lightly and joked, "Does that mean this time it's switched to sisters?"

Jiang Wenyue laughed: "You actually guessed right. The ones wanting to cooperate with me are indeed several sisters. The factory side is almost settled; we're just waiting for the east wind."

Don't misunderstand, I'm not asking you to invest money. I want you to join as a shareholder with your design drawings, giving you ten percent of the dry shares."

Liu Chuxue suddenly laughed: "Are you serious?"

Jiang Wenyue held up three fingers: "Everything I just said is true, and as long as you agree, we can sign the contract immediately."

Liu Chuxue became serious now: "Did you secure the factory?"

Jiang Wenyue nodded: "We signed the contract yesterday. Sewing machines and workers are already in place, though we've hired masters to train the workers in sewing techniques."

The people sent south to order fabrics have also replied; the cloth will be shipped back immediately."

Hearing this, Liu Chuxue said, "Can't private individuals run factories now, right?"

Jiang Wenyue didn't expect Liu Chuxue to know a bit about everything: "Private factories aren't allowed, so this time we are affiliated with the City No. 1 Textile Mill. This way, we just need to pay the full affiliation fee annually; they will handle everything else for us. This counts as mutual benefit."

Of course, what she didn't say was that all of this naturally required connections; without a powerful backer to guarantee it, no one would be willing to bear the risk for you.

Hearing this, Liu Chuxue sat up straight and spoke very seriously: "Letting me join with design drawings counts as technical equity, but there must be a time limit, right? It won't be that I have to keep submitting designs for the rest of my life?"

Jiang Wenyue immediately understood her meaning: "Three years as the term. As long as the factory gets on the right track, the factory will set up a design department. After three years, I believe those people will have grown up. By then, unless there's an emergency, we won't trouble you, our veteran, anymore."

"You make it sound so simple. After three years I won't have to do anything, just take dividends? Is that what you mean?"

Jiang Wenyue nodded: "Exactly what you understand. After all, without your design drawings, our factory probably couldn't open for a while, and it would be unstable."

But with you joining, it's different. You take ten percent of the dry shares; we lose nothing."

Seeing Liu Chuxue say nothing, Jiang Wenyue continued: "It's fine, you can think it over carefully, but the time can't be too long. Right now, we are just waiting for your east wind. With it, we can set sail."

Liu Chuxue laughed instead: "No need to think. I'm in. This is wealth picked up for free."
