Chapter 122: 122 Trend

Jiang Xinyu took a dress out of her bag and handed it to her.

"Wow, it’s so beautiful. I love this floral pattern, especially the white collar." She Xiaoyun said and immediately tried it on.

"Xinyu, does it look good?"

"It looks great."

"Xinyu, thank you so much, how much is it?"

"Sister She, no need." Jiang Xinyu shook her head with a smile.

She Xiaoyun immediately took it off and handed it back to Jiang Xinyu, "If you don’t want any money, then I won’t take it."

"Fifteen, just give me fifteen."

"Isn’t this too good a deal? So much fabric for just fifteen yuan?"

"Yeah, I brought back quite a lot, and I felt this pattern suited you best."

"Xinyu, dear Xinyu, can I choose another one?"

"Sure, why not? I don’t wear them anyway, if you want them, I’ll give them to you."

"Why don’t you wear them?"

"I don’t like dresses."

"Are there girls who don’t like dresses?"

"Maybe I’m not a girl?"

She Xiaoyun suddenly leaned close to Jiang Xinyu’s face, "Come on, tell me why you’re pretending to be a girl to get close to me? Is it because you’re attracted to my beauty?"

"Yes, I’ve admired you for a long time. Because you ignore men, I had to pretend to be a girl to get close to you."

Both burst into laughter. Their friendship got even closer.

"Xinyu, how many did you bring?"

"Why are you asking? What’s up?"

"I’m going to take a stroll outside wearing it, and I’ll tell you, everyone here will want one. This is good for you, in the future you won’t have to find me to buy things, and I’ll save good stuff for you."

"Sister She, you don’t love me anymore, you’re trying to ditch me?"

"Alright, stop acting, it’s too fake, too different from Bai Yang."

"Sister She, thank you." Jiang Xinyu thanked She Xiaoyun earnestly.

"It’s nothing. Let’s go, take a walk with me and make them envious."

As soon as She Xiaoyun came out wearing the dress, she immediately caught the attention of all the sales clerks.

"Secretary She, Secretary She, where did this dress come from? It’s so beautiful."

"Pretty, isn’t it? It’s Secretary Jiang, the one who went to Russia, who brought it back."

"Secretary Jiang, are there any more dresses? Could you spare me one? I really love it."

"Secretary Jiang didn’t bring back many."

"Secretary She, Secretary Jiang, please spare me one."

Jiang Xinyu watched the girl’s anxious expression, close to tears, with some amusement.

"Okay, I’ll give you one. I’ll bring it over tomorrow at noon."

"Thank you so much, Secretary Jiang, how much for the dress?"

"Fifteen each."

"Okay, Secretary Jiang, ensure you bring it tomorrow. Otherwise, I’ll go and pick it up from the textile factory."

Before Jiang Xinyu could answer, all the sales clerks surrounded her. "Secretary Jiang, what about us? We want one too."

Jiang Xinyu counted and saw there were eleven people. "Okay, everyone gets one. I don’t wear them myself, I’ll bring them to you tomorrow. Just a heads up, each dress has a different pattern, so don’t fight over it."

"Are there so many different patterns?"

"Yes, you’ll see when I bring them tomorrow."

"Secretary Jiang, if you don’t have time, we can come over."

"Can you all go together?" Jiang Xinyu asked curiously, thinking it would be better if they could fetch them themselves.

No one spoke up, everyone wanted to go first and have the first pick.

"Alright, you all better hurry back to your posts. Tomorrow, Secretary Jiang will make a trip just for you. Remember to save good stuff for Secretary Jiang in the future."

"Sure, definitely. We’ll save all the defective items for Secretary Jiang."

Jiang Xinyu smiled and followed She Xiaoyun. "Sister, I’m heading back. I’ll come again tomorrow noon."

"Alright, let’s find a time to get together. They all want to treat you to a meal."

"Haha, sure, next week then. This Saturday, my sister is coming over to my place."

"Why not invite them along?"

"Isn’t that a bit awkward?"

"What’s the problem? Let’s set it for noon on Saturday at that big estate in the suburbs."

"Sounds good."

The next day, Jiang Xinyu got off work at noon and rode her bike away. She didn’t have lunch in the cafeteria, which worried the few people at the union.

She went home and had a meal of fish-flavored pork over rice, then took eleven dresses to the supply and sales department.

As soon as Jiang Xinyu arrived, she was surrounded. "Come to my office, or we’ll get criticized soon. You all go, I’ll stay behind, but hurry up!"

Jiang Xinyu was escorted by eleven people into the office, her bag was snatched, and she was pushed out.

In five minutes, there was no fighting as Jiang Xinyu had imagined, nor was there any chaotic scrambling. Each held a dress, queued up, and handed Jiang Xinyu fifteen yuan each.

This was settled? Little did she know the twelve people had arranged it yesterday, they would take turns wearing them.

Jiang Xinyu looked at the hundred and sixty-five yuan in her hands, feeling complex emotions. It was surprisingly easy to earn money from women.

"Xinyu, here’s my money."

Jiang Xinyu didn’t refuse, she accepted it with a smile.

"Sister She, I’m heading back. See you on Saturday."

Jiang Xinyu rode her bike home, calculating in her mind. These three hundred twenty dresses had only cost a total of fifteen hundred yuan, selling twelve already fetched a hundred sixty-five. Looks like she’ll make a lot this time.

She had just sat down, hadn’t even taken a sip of water, when Sister Meng came rushing in.

"Director Jiang, I want that Russian dress."

"Sister Meng, I’ll bring it for you tomorrow. What pattern do you like? What color?"

"My daughter likes pink."

"Okay, I’ll bring it tomorrow."

"Director Jiang, how many do you have left?"

"Why?"

"The six girls from the union all want one but didn’t dare to come to you."

"Alright, I’ll bring it for them tomorrow."

Sister Meng left with a smile, ready to report the good news.

Jiang Xinyu thought to herself that Wang Ailing must have worn the dress to the cafeteria today, otherwise there wouldn’t be such a strong reaction.

"Director Jiang."

Jiang Xinyu quickly stood up. "Vice Factory Director Yao."

"I heard you brought back clothes from Russia?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"No, Director Jiang, could you kindly let me study the craftsmanship and coloring?"

"No problem, I’ll bring it to Vice Factory Director Yao tomorrow."

"I’ll pay."

"Oh, that’s unnecessary. Consider it my contribution to the textile factory."

In the afternoon, Jiang Xinyu went to the security department and discovered strangers entering the factory.

This was a serious matter, resulting in warnings for the entire security department, including the chief.

Qian Jun took the matter very seriously. "Director Jiang, please write a report, we need to broadcast criticism throughout the factory."

"Understood."

After work, she went home, tidied the vegetable garden, feeling quite pleased.

That night, she indulged in seafood porridge and fried eggs, feasting on the delightful flavors.

Tomorrow is Friday, work will surely be busy, better to get some early rest. Though her salary increased to forty-eight, it was far more tiring than being a secretary.
