Chapter 94: The Finished Product Emerges

~8 min read 1,518 words

Under the production manager's arrangements, the workers each performed their own duties and began to throw themselves into the production of the new products.

Seeing that Shen Yan had truly taken over this factory, Fang Xiang could not help but feel secretly delighted. The reason was simple: following such a handsome and wealthy boss, it was excellent just to feast her eyes every day.

Who could blame her for being a fan of good looks?

Thinking of her younger brother who was about to come and rely on her, Fang Xiang took the initiative to find Shen Yan and asked, "Boss, is our factory still hiring?"

"Why? Do you have a friend who wants to join the factory?" Shen Yan asked casually.

Fang Xiang said, "My younger brother is preparing to come to Hangzhou to work. If possible, I would like him to join our factory."

Fang Xiang was only twenty years old this year, so she figured her brother could not be much older. Under normal circumstances, children of this age were mostly still full of youthful spirit, quietly wandering through the wonderful life of a campus.

Therefore, the Fang family must either be in financial difficulty, or the child was too rebellious and had dropped out of school early to go out and work.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Yan indicated that the factory currently had sufficient manpower, but there would be vacancies in ten days. If there was interest, she could call him over to take a look then.

"Thank you, Boss!" A look of joy appeared on Fang Xiang's face.

Hiring meant the factory had ample funds, and since Shen Yan had just taken over the factory and already had a clear implementation plan, it seemed he had come prepared.

With nothing to do, Shen Yan began to stroll through the various production processes, mainly to show his face and incidentally check on the workers' production situation.

In fact, only after truly taking over the factory did Shen Yan discover that running a clothing factory was actually quite easy. It was a hundred-person factory, and the previous boss had specifically hired a production manager. With the production manager controlling the production side and fixed assembly lines for the production processes, almost no problems would arise.

As the boss, he only needed to coordinate the overall situation from behind the scenes, ensure the continuous supply of raw materials, and solve the clothing sales issues. This was not a difficult task for Shen Yan; Taobao was enough to digest all the factory's output, and it would not be too late to use offline channels if there was excess inventory.

Skipping the middleman to earn the price difference was the only way to ensure maximum profit.

Juyuan Garment Factory—no, it should be called Yancheng Clothing Factory now, implying a focus on integrity.

The production equipment at Yancheng Clothing Factory was relatively advanced, and there was no lack of skilled veteran masters. Under Shen Yan's requirements, in just half a day, thermal underwear and down jackets of various styles and colors were laid out before Shen Yan.

After a careful inspection, Shen Yan nodded with satisfaction and said to Han Yi, "Manager Han, the craftsmanship of these products is quite good. Continue to maintain this standard in the future. While ensuring output, the quality must also meet the standard."

"Understood, Boss!" Han Yi replied sonorously, secretly feeling relieved inside.

In fact, he had been worrying all along.

The previous boss was an idle person who, for the sake of ease and comfort, had specifically hired him as the production manager. Now that a new boss had taken office, if he liked to do everything himself, what value would his existence have? He would be packed off sooner or later.

Fortunately, as it currently appeared, his rice bowl was still held quite steadily.

As the lights began to twinkle at dusk, Shen Yan drove straight to the Communication University of China after leaving the factory. From afar, he saw Hao Anqi wearing a green slim-fit dress that reached her knees, a pair of white sneakers on her feet, and a small ponytail.

She stood in front of the shrubbery by the gate, looking down at her phone, her lower legs kicking randomly in a rhythmic motion.

The surroundings were full of youthful students coming and going, laughing and talking, or young couples with their arms around each other, or girls walking hand in hand.

"Qiqi!" Shen Yan drove directly to a stop in front of her, rolled down the window, and called out.

At the same time, he opened the passenger door.

As soon as Hao Anqi sat in the car, a faint scent of lavender wafted into her nose. She could not help but take a few extra breaths, then immediately asked, "Was there a girl in the car just now? Why is there a smell of perfume?"

Shen Yan tapped her on the head, opened the armrest box, and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. It's car perfume; it has a refreshing and brain-clearing effect."

"Ouch!" Hao Anqi rubbed her slightly aching forehead and pouted, saying, "I didn't mean it like that, why did you tap me?"

In fact, she really had not thought too much about it. During their daily interactions, the relationship between the two had become increasingly intimate, and that feeling could not be faked; Shen Yan just liked her.

"I didn't even use any force. Let me pet your puppy head." Shen Yan smiled and rubbed her forehead.

"You're the one with the puppy head!" Hao Anqi rolled her eyes charmingly and asked Shen Yan what they were going to do next.

"There are still some ingredients at home; let me make you two home-cooked dishes."

"Okay! Okay!" Upon hearing that she was going to visit the Shen Family, Hao Anqi's eyes lit up instantly.

Previously, Grandma Shen had always been at home, and she had not been prepared to meet the elders, so for such a long time, she had not even been to the Danqingyuan Residential Complex.

Driving all the way, Hao Anqi took in the ecological environment of the residential complex through the car window. It was shaded by green trees and filled with blooming flowers; the huge fountain flowed gurglingly under the streetlights, making it a beautiful sight.

Unit 5, Room 802.

After walking through the door, Hao Anqi was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, beginning to look around, peering here and touching there, feeling that everything was so novel.

This apartment was even more spacious than her own home. The pothos on the windowsill were lush and green, and the round porcelain vase under the Television was filled with delicate, dripping flowers that were refreshing to the heart. On the living room counter, there was also a pair of elk, a mythical beast of wealth, and a soaring roc, all lifelike.

Everything here was arranged by Shen Yan himself. Although it was slightly simple, it gave people a warm feeling like a spring breeze.

Shen Yan let her look around while he busied himself in the kitchen.

Twenty minutes later, three steaming hot dishes were served on the dining table: braised pork, stir-fried lettuce stems, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Not to mention how they tasted, just the golden appearance alone was enough to whet one's appetite.

Hao Anqi ate while praising them endlessly, and even said, "Shuai Yan, why don't you teach me how to cook? I'll make it for you next time."

Shen Yan naturally had no objections.

If conditions allowed, he would love to have everything brought to him and food served to his mouth, being waited on every day.

"By the way, why did you insist that I bring my camera today?" Seeming to have remembered something, Hao Anqi asked curiously.

Shen Yan swallowed the rice in his mouth and said, "Aren't you always curious about what I've been busy with lately? Actually, I found a clothing factory to discuss cooperation, and I'm preparing to source clothes from there to sell on Taobao."

"I asked you to bring the camera because I wanted to ask you to take some photos to upload to the online store."

Hao Anqi was slightly stunned. She was naturally no stranger to the term Taobao, and she had even had a few online shopping experiences. The things on it were indeed quite good, high quality and inexpensive. She had not expected her boyfriend to plan on earning money from this aspect.

It was quite a good entry point.

But without someone to teach him step-by-step, would it work?

"So you took a big bag out of the car just now, and it was all clothes inside?" Hao Anqi asked.

"Yeah! It's some women's down jackets and thermal underwear."

"But opening an online store shouldn't be that simple, right? Do you have experience in this area?"

Shen Yan smiled slightly and said, you can completely rest assured about that; during the summer vacation, I made a product a hit and earned over three hundred thousand.
