Picked Up A Husband For Farming

Chapter 77: New Revenue Source

“I want to ask you, how will we split the profit?” Xu Qing put down her teacup. Since they were all smart people, she had to make the distribution of profit clear.

The admiration in Deng Chengxi’s eyes grew. She didn’t expect to meet such a smart woman in a small town. It was much simpler to talk to smart people. She quickly decided. “You take fourty percent, and I’ll take sixty.”

“Fifty-fifty,” Xu Qing said again.

For a moment, there was silence.

Deng Chengxi’s eyes flickered. She put down her teacup and looked at Xu Qing steadily. “Do you know how many branches of Beautiful Closet there are in the country?”

Xu Qing shook her head gently. “But I know that a new idea is the foundation of everything. If you want to make money, you can’t keep it a secret. Even if you spread it all over the country, as time passes, it will always be an out-dated style. Sooner or later, it will be outdone by other companies.”

Hearing this, Deng Chengxi lowered her eyes and pondered. Xu Qing was right. Although Beautiful Closet was a century-old store, it was deteriorating year by year. Now that she had taken over the management, if it weren’t for her exquisite double-sided embroidery, the business would further decline. Now, Jingdu had opened a beautiful clothing franchise. Their clothes were novel and exquisite. In just a few years, they started to rival the century-old store. If this continued, Beautiful Closet would eventually be closed.

“I promise.” Deng Chengxi could only agree. A clothing store could never lose innovation.

“Sister Chengxi, don’t be anxious. I have another condition,” Xu Qing continued. After all, she still had to return to learning medicine in the end. She didn’t have time to be busy with these things every day. Now, she was trying her best to earn money to survive and to give herself more time to fulfill her dream.

“Go ahead.” Deng Chengxi looked at her.

Xu Qing replied, “I only provide three new design drafts every month.”

“No, it’s too little. I want at least ten drafts.” Deng Chengxi quickly shook her head. Her shop was spread throughout the country and there were many consumers. How could she only have three drafts?

“Then five drafts and matching jewelry. There’s also an accessory shop under the Beautiful Closet, right?” Xu Qing finally compromised.

Deng Chengxi’s eyes lit up. She recalled the phoenix crown on the wedding dress she had seen just now. It was really dazzling, but five pieces were still too little.

“Sister Chengxi, what’s rare is precious.” Xu Qing really couldn’t compromise any more. Even a small design consumed a lot of time and energy.

In the end, Deng Chengxi nodded. After all, she knew that going overboard was worse than being lackluster. Anyway, she had already signed Xu Qing. She believed that she would have time to have a good talk with Xu Qing in the future.

After signing the contract, Xu Qing reminded Deng Chengxi to keep this matter a secret. After all, if too many people knew about it, she would be in trouble. Of course, Deng Chengxi was happy to hear this. After all, this was a precious talent she had poached. How could she show her off everywhere? If someone poached her, she would suffer a loss.

As for Xu Qing’s wedding dress, Deng Chengxi gave it to Xu Qing for free. However, Deng Chengxi requested to make another set to be used for the shop. Xu Qing had no objections to this. This way, her wedding dress would be unique.

Xu Qing was in a good mood when she went out. She didn’t expect that making clothes would give her an additional source of income. This way, her future financial security would be guaranteed.

Since she still had to open a big hotel, she brought Qiao Yanhui to the liveliest and most luxurious hotel for a meal. She also needed to investigate the market.

The hotel that Xu Qing chose was called Heavenly Fragrance Hotel. It was luxuriously decorated and had a booming business. There was also a hotel opposite it. The renovation of that hotel was relatively simple, but the business was also very good. It wasn’t inferior to Heavenly Fragrance Hotel at all.

The two hotels must be rivals. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have chosen such a location. However, this also benefited Xu Qing. She wanted to investigate the market. She chose the Heavenly Fragrance Hotel at noon and Ten Mile Hotel at night.

It had to be said that although Xu Qing’s town wasn’t big, it was very prosperous. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be two big hotels. Moreover, even the famous clothing franchise Beautiful Closet was opened here.

Xu Qing sat in the hall with Qiao Yanhui and ordered a table of signature dishes. Everyone was dumbfounded. The two of them had ordered a table full of dishes?

Soon, the dishes were served. They looked good, but she didn’t know how they tasted. Xu Qing handed a pair of chopsticks to Qiao Yanhui. “Come, Little Hui, eat.”

Qiao Yanhui pouted and shook his head. “It’s not tasty.”
