Today, Li Ya was clearly meticulously dressed.
Her dark hair was impeccably pinned up, and her fair and lovely face was adorned with delicate light makeup, making her already beautiful features even more radiant and captivating, exuding an aura of an alluring older woman.
Although she was also wearing a down jacket, her movements revealed a pair of slender, straight calves. She was truly a top-tier beauty!
Even with Qin Chuan's experience from two lifetimes, such an exceptional older woman was extremely rare.
“Boss, good morning!”
Qin Chuan snapped out of his daze and greeted Li Ya with a smile.
“Good morning!”
Li Ya had walked closer, and a hint of fragrance filled the crisp air, whether it was her natural scent or that of high-end cosmetics, it was pleasant.
“Have you had breakfast yet?”
Li Ya asked, her tone extremely gentle, like friends greeting each other.
“Thank you for your concern, Boss. I’ve already eaten!”
Qin Chuan replied.
“And who is this?”
Li Ya noticed Qin Gang standing foolishly beside Qin Chuan, a look of confusion on her face.
Qin Chuan then realized that his second brother was currently staring at Li Ya with infatuation, looking completely smitten.
“Useless fellow!”
Qin Chuan cursed inwardly and delivered a swift kick to Qin Gang’s backside, finally bringing him back to his senses.
“Damn it, who kicked me…”
“Second Brother, this is my boss, Li Ya!”
Fearing that his second brother might cause further trouble, Qin Chuan quickly interjected.
“Boss Li, hello! Hello!”
Faced with such a stunning older woman, Qin Gang’s hands trembled, unsure where to place them.
“Boss, this is my second brother, he’s a bumpkin who hasn’t seen many beautiful women. Please don’t take it personally!”
Qin Chuan explained.
Unexpectedly, Li Ya’s expression subtly shifted, and she smiled at Qin Chuan, “Going by what you said, you must have seen many beautiful women?”
“Uh…”
Qin Chuan, usually so articulate, suddenly didn't know how to answer and could only laugh it off, “Well… well… it’s okay!”
“Boss, my second brother is here with me to learn today. We’ll get to work now!”
With that, he tugged on Qin Gang and hurried away. He had a feeling that Li Ya was a bit different today, and lingering would be risky.
The brothers arrived at the clothing stall and helped with the initial preparations.
“Third Brother, is she really the boss of Butterfly Clothing Factory you were talking about? She’s so beautiful!”
While working, Qin Gang secretly glanced at Li Ya, who was directing operations not far away, and whispered.
“Just focus on your work. Women like her are not for us to think about,”
Qin Chuan said lightly.
“I know that, of course. But even just looking at such a top-tier beauty is a feast for the eyes!”
Qin Gang exclaimed with emotion…
Time passed quickly amidst the busyness, and it was unknowingly approaching nine o'clock.
The stall for Butterfly Clothing Factory was already crowded with a dense mass of people, even more than yesterday afternoon, all drawn by the flour and oil.
As the clock struck nine, Qin Chuan, standing on a long stool, struck the gong. The people who had been waiting for a long time immediately swarmed forward, beginning their frantic shopping.
“Everyone, please don’t push, don’t push!”
“We have plenty of flour and sunflower oil today, ensuring everyone will get theirs!”
“Also, we’ve added many new clothing styles, so please take your time and choose what you like!”
Qin Chuan grabbed a megaphone and shouted at the top of his lungs, but it was still difficult to contain the enthusiasm of the crowd.
The entire stall was packed to the brim, with heads of people everywhere.
Today, Li Ya had brought some other workers from the factory. The men maintained order, and the women served as sales assistants, yet everyone was still overwhelmed.
Among the crowd maintaining order, Qin Gang stared in disbelief at the frenzied scene before him, feeling his worldview shattered.
When did selling clothes become so manic? People were scrambling to pay, many with denominations of fifty and one hundred yuan, as if afraid they would miss out.
He finally believed that his brother hadn't lied to him. With such booming business, earning a thousand yuan a day was indeed possible.
This wasn't just making money; it was like printing it!
The neighboring stall owners, witnessing the sensational popularity of Butterfly Clothing Factory, felt a mix of bitterness, envy, and resentment.
Especially those selling clothes, they were gritting their teeth!
Today, Butterfly Clothing Factory wasn't just selling summer clothes; they also had autumn and winter styles.
With a limited number of customers, if they all went to other stalls, these businesses would naturally suffer.
If this trend continued, Li Ya would make a fortune!
Some gossip-loving stall owners were also discussing animatedly, munching on sunflower seeds.
Their topic of conversation naturally revolved around the beautiful boss, Li Ya, and her rival, the Guo family.
The Guo family also operated a clothing business. As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain, and the Li and Guo families had deep-seated animosity.
There were even rumors that the accidental death of Li Ya’s father was closely related to the Guo family.
This time, with Butterfly Clothing Factory facing difficulties, the Guo family was the happiest.
They intended to take advantage of the situation to annex Butterfly Clothing Factory and become the dominant player.
Who would have thought that the struggling Butterfly Clothing Factory would come up with such a brilliant sales idea? It was truly a reversal of fortune, poised for a resurgence.
“Look, isn’t that Guo Baokun, the young master of the Guo family?”
Suddenly, among the stall vendors gossiping with each other, one person’s eyes inadvertently fell on a distant figure. He suddenly froze, then excitedly whispered to his companions.
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly looked up, their eyes widening and filled with excitement.
“No doubt about it, it’s that young man from the Guo family!”
“The Guo family must have received news about Butterfly Clothing Factory and sent someone to investigate!”
“This is going to be interesting!”
“Given the Guo family’s domineering nature, they absolutely won’t allow this to happen!”
At this moment, around a corner from the Butterfly Clothing Factory stall, two men stood in the sunlight, staring intently at the stall.
One of the men was not old, perhaps in his early twenties. He was Guo Baokun, the sole heir of the Guo family.
Watching the explosive business at the Butterfly Clothing Factory stall, Guo Baokun’s face was as dark as ink, his fists clenched tightly.
“Brother Bao, what should we do now?”
The other man accompanying Guo Baokun asked in a low voice.
Guo Baokun’s face was grim, his teeth grinding audibly.
“Go! Immediately report back to my father and tell him to use his connections to cut off the supply of grain and oil!”
“That wretched woman is just exploiting people’s desire for freebies, selling clothes under the guise of giving away grain and oil!”
“I’ll see who buys her two hundred to three hundred thousand yuan worth of clothing inventory when these grain and oil giveaways are gone!”
